Since Father Li already made the decision, they could only agree and took the bus to head back.
When Father Li saw his third daughter-in-law paying the bus fare, he sighed. The cost of living in the capital was too high—everything required money here. He couldn't fathom how city dwellers managed to live with such expenses.
Back in the village, they didn't need to pay when they borrowed the production team's tractor. At most, they would send over some vegetables to thank the production team, which they grew themselves at no cost.
Reflecting on this, he turned to his second son and said, "Second son, when we return to the village, remember to send more vegetables to your in-laws. The living expenses in the capital are high, it's not easy for them."
Li Lingyun was taken aback when he heard of his father's words. He always knew his father was a generous man but he never expected him to think about his girlfriend's family's situation so thoughtfully.
