Chapter 1518: Chapter 1517: Can’t Just Eat for Free

For Liu Ma, her presence is obviously tens of thousands of times better than hiring someone from outside; she’s familiar and has served both the old master and the eldest young master.

If there’s a need to choose, why look far away?

Li Yan lowered his eyelids and said, "You were all sent to this residence for retirement, there’s no need to disrupt your peaceful lives because of us. It would be selfish to suddenly come here just because you’re used to it, and furthermore, it would turn things upside down, ruining your original routine."

Liu Ma stood frozen, quickly saying, "The whole house belongs to the eldest young master, the servants in the house are the eldest young master’s servants, what place could be off-limits for you... We old folks are just here for long, but we don’t have any special skills, we can’t just eat without contributing..."

For Liu Ma, the entire Li Family would eventually be Li Yan’s personal property, and everyone in the house was naturally supposed to serve him, so the notion of disrupting a peaceful life seemed nonexistent.

Li Yan furrowed his brow but didn’t want to speak.

Mainly because he had too many thoughts in his mind. Liu Ma was so keen to invite him, eager for him to stay in the courtyard. If he really left Gong Qingwan, those looking for elders of the Li Family might actually stay here.

However, the truth of the matter remains unknown, and it’s a fantasy to think it could be settled in a few words.

Li Yan wanted to move out, more so because of Gu Tong’s health; a completely stable place is the best choice.

"I’m a bit tired."

As he uttered these words,

A certain deputy immediately understood and said, "Madam called earlier saying she was hungry, asking if we should return to dine."

"Hmm, let’s head back then." Li Yan said expressionlessly as he prepared to get up.

Liu Ma sat on the sofa, dumbfounded. She never dreamed that the eldest young master would not only ignore her, but would pat his backside and leave directly.

This result left Liu Ma somewhat at a loss and said, "Eldest young master, do you really not want to stay with us?"

Li Yan glanced at her without responding much and said, "Living arrangements at home are entirely decided by my wife, so whether to stay or not depends on what we discuss upon returning."

The wife decides everything...

You’re kidding, right.

Liu Ma couldn’t help but recall the previous two madams; no matter which one received all of Li Quan’s affection, when it came down to matters, the word "consultation" simply didn’t exist.

Li Quan, the old master, was very decisive and managed everything orderly on his own.

However, now, his son has undergone some change.

This completely caught Liu Ma off guard.

"That’s how couples are; it’s better to discuss things together. But if the eldest young master can make the decision, why bother the young madam..." Liu Ma pondered and advised again, "Moreover, the eldest young master is wise; if he thinks it’s good, the young madam will surely understand too..."

Thinking it’s good is very simple.

But right now, contrary to that, it doesn’t seem good.

Li Yan smiled faintly and said, "I’ll bring her to have a look later, if she thinks it’s good, that would truly be good."

Liu Ma was stunned: "This..."

She had never seen any household where the eldest young master pampered his wife to this extent...
