Chapter 2972: Little Granddaughter from Uncle’s Family

Li Mingxi laughed and said, "I just love being a doctor, treating people. I heard that the government has organized an event to send some doctors to the mountains to spread medical knowledge. I think it’s great."

"You want to go?" Xiao Lang stared at her.

Li Mingxi answered casually, "A bit."

"You can’t go! We just got married. If you leave me during our honeymoon, see how I’ll deal with you!" Xiao Lang threatened.

Li Mingxi knew he wouldn’t agree, so she hadn’t planned to go.

"Just saying."

Xiao Lang thought for a moment and said, "It’s too late today. Tomorrow, I’ll take you horseback riding."

Li Mingxi’s eyes lit up, "Really?!"

"Yeah, you should be interested in horseback riding."

Of course she’s interested. Anything challenging and exciting, she’s into.

"Then I’ll go prepare a bit now, see what things to bring tomorrow!" Li Mingxi excitedly dashed into the bedroom, revitalized.

Xiao Lang gave a helpless smile. He was naturally quiet and dull, while Li Mingxi loved excitement and adventure.

With her around, he believed his life would never be boring.

...

Li Mingxi had everything prepared, just waiting for the next day to go riding, to spend a splendid day.

Early the next morning, Li’s mother called them, asking them to come home for a meal.

When asked why they should come home for a meal, Li’s mother said today was her and Li Mingxi’s father’s wedding anniversary.

Li Mingxi was speechless.

The parents’ wedding anniversary should be celebrated by just the two of them, right?

Why involve the whole family!

Don’t they feel extra people are just third wheels?

After Li Mingxi voiced these thoughts, Li’s mother firmly said, "If I tell you to come back, you come back. What’s with all the nonsense?! Am I still your mother? You argue every time I ask you to come back!"

Li Mingxi got scolded and had to give up the horseback riding plan, reluctantly taking Xiao Lang home.

On the way, Li Mingxi was a bit sulky, Xiao Lang comforted her, saying they could go horseback riding another day.

Li Mingxi sulked for a while, then got over it.

Since it’s the parents’ wedding anniversary, naturally they should buy something to bring back as a gift.

But what gift would truly be meaningful?

Sending an ordinary gift is obviously boring, they wouldn’t appreciate ordinary gifts.

Sending something expensive, while thoughtful, is not fun.

Li Mingxi thought about it and decided to give them a couple’s package voucher for a revolving restaurant.

Older people also have the right to enjoy romance. Perhaps the parents feel shy to enjoy it, but she can arrange it for them.

Xiao Lang also thought it was a good idea, so they went and bought the voucher for tonight.

Li Mingxi and Xiao Lang arrived happily at the Li Family.

When they got out of the car and stepped into the living room, they immediately heard a child’s loud crying.

Li’s mother and Li’s father were comforting a little girl who seemed to be about two years old. The little girl was crying and demanding her mom.

She was switching between English and Chinese, her language totally mixed up.

Li Mingxi was stunned, "Mom, whose child is this?"

Seeing them arrive, Li’s mother happily said, "This is your uncle’s granddaughter. You haven’t seen her, right?"

Li Mingxi had an uncle, but he didn’t live in A City, so the families rarely met.

Her uncle had two sons, both married. The elder son married an American Chinese, and the whole family often lived in the United States. Li Mingxi hadn’t seen them for seven or eight years.
