As the saying went, full meals for the bold, starvation for the timid. Li Xiaoran felt fearless at this moment.

It wasn’t that Li Xiaoran was bold, but that she knew the situation very well.

From the moment Luo Cheng’s father wrote the imperial edict, she had already been ignored.

She was just a peasant. So what if she married his son?

He was the emperor. With an imperial edict, an insignificant peasant like her had to make room for others.

How could Li Xiaoran be willing to accept this?

If it wasn’t hers, she wouldn’t reach out and snatch it.

If it was hers, she would never let go.

Therefore, when this imperial decree was issued, her first round of exchanges with the emperor started.

Did he think that an imperial edict could defeat her? In his dreams!

“Husband, you just have to listen to me. Capture the person who passed the imperial decree and find the materials to make the imperial decree. By the way, you have to collect things with the emperor’s handwriting. It’s best to give these things to me now, as soon as possible!” Li Xiaoran said.

Luo Cheng didn’t understand Li Xiaoran’s words.

Even if this imperial decree could be imitated, the words on it couldn’t be imitated. Also, the seal of the jade seal couldn’t be imitated!

With such doubts, Luo Cheng instructed Luo Ziyang about some things and looked at Li Xiaoran.

At this moment, Li Xiaoran was no longer beside Luo Cheng. Instead, she had gone to the vegetable garden at the back.

When Luo Cheng found Li Xiaoran, he realized that she had actually pulled out a few radishes from the vegetable garden.

“Wife, why are you plucking these radishes?” Li Xiaoran looked at Luo Cheng with a smile.

“Don’t ask. Even if you ask, I won’t answer!”

With that, Li Xiaoran turned around and went to Li Shun’s room to look for carpentry tools.

After finding the tools she needed, Li Xiaoran forged a few more small knives.

“By the way, husband, the brush, ink, paper, and inkstone the emperor uses are probably very special! I wonder if you can get these things?”

When Luo Cheng heard Li Xiaoran’s words, he nodded. “I can get them for you. Don’t worry, I’ll send them to you tomorrow morning!” With Luo Cheng’s assurance, Li Xiaoran was relieved.

For the rest of the day, Luo Cheng barely saw Li Xiaoran.

Other than mealtimes, he didn’t see Li Xiaoran at all.

“Daughter, what are you busy with? You even took some of your father’s carpentry tools!” Zhao Xiu couldn’t help but ask when she saw how busy Li Xiaoran was.

“Mother, don’t ask. I’m doing serious business! You and Ziyang should pay more attention to the shop these two days. I might not go to the shop for a few days!” Li Xiaoran didn’t answer her mother’s question.

“You’re really the same as your father! When he made your dowry previously, whenever he had any good ideas, he threw everything to the back of his mind. You’re the same!” Zhao Xiu muttered.

“Of course. My daughter naturally takes after me! Isn’t that right, Xiaoran?!” Li

Shun took this as praise and accepted it with a smile.

Li Xiaoran also smiled and nodded. “That’s right. I inherited it from my father!”

Although Zhao Xiu didn’t know what Li Xiaoran was busy with, she knew that Li Xiaoran really had something important to do.

After reminding her to take care of her body, she went to cook snow fungus soup for Li Xiaoran.

“My daughter has been suffering inflammation recently. I’ll make some snow fungus soup for her to nourish her body!” Zhao Xiu cut the soaked snow fungus into pieces with scissors and said, “I wonder what this girl has been anxious about recently. Previously, I thought that she missed our son-in-law, but now that our son-in-law is back, she’s even more anxious!”

When Li Shun, who was helping start the fire, heard this, he smiled and said, “The children have their own thoughts. Let’s not cause trouble. As long as the children are healthy and have a good relationship, it’s no big deal!”

Zhao Xiu thought about it and felt that it made sense, so she didn’t say anything else.

At night, Li Xiaoran, who was busy, received soup from her mother.

As Li Xiaoran drank this bowl of snow fungus soup filled with parental love, she felt warm inside.

Thinking of what she was going to do, Li Xiaoran became even more attentive.

This time, she had to succeed.

The next day, the materials Li Xiaoran wanted were delivered early in the morning.

In addition to these things, there was also an imperial edict sealed in wax.

After Li Xiaoran held the imperial edict in her hand, she flipped through it carefully and memorized every detail.

After that, Li Xiaoran opened the imperial decree and saw its contents.

As expected, an imperial edict was sent to Luo Cheng.

Seeing this, Li Xiaoran narrowed her eyes and sneered.

“Husband, your father is so attentive towards you! Princess of Zhu Lan Kingdom? You’re really lucky!”

When Luo Cheng heard Li Xiaoran’s words, he inexplicably felt a chill run down his spine and couldn’t help but shiver.

Luo Cheng, who already knew what she was hinting at, quickly defended himself.

“You already said that it was my father did something shameless. Wife, you can’t take your anger out on me!”

Li Xiaoran glanced at Luo Cheng and snorted.

“Alright, give me everything! Don’t disturb me for the next two days. Just send the food to my door when it’s ready!”

When Luo Cheng heard Li Xiaoran’s words, he was a little worried.

“Wife, can you tell me what you want to do? I feel a little afraid when I see you acting like this!”

“What are you afraid of?” Li Xiaoran rolled her eyes at Luo Cheng. “I’m the one who should be afraid!”

“No, I’m afraid that you’ll disregard your health! Don’t be anxious or angry. I can resolve this matter!” Luo Cheng looked at Li Xiaoran as he said with some heartache.

“No, I have to resolve this matter myself! Your father has already issued a challenge. If I don’t retaliate, I won’t be Li Xiaoran! Hmph, a famous person once said that women can hold up half the sky. I’ll teach your father a lesson today and make him unable to retort. I’ll see if he still looks down on us countryside women in the future!” Li Xiaoran said angrily.

“Then let me help you! I’ll accompany you. If anything happens to you, I can save you in time! You can keep working so hard!” Luo Cheng knew that Li Xiaoran felt very aggrieved.

However, it wasn’t worth it to torture herself for that imperial edict.

“Don’t worry, I know my limits! I still have to save alive to cause trouble for your father!” Li Xiaoran said angrily..
