Chapter 9 Causes

At this time, Li Liping shouted in her heart that she was glad, fortunately, Liu Shufen did not say this after the death of her cheap father, otherwise they would never have been able to spend more than two years safely without power and power. Concubines and concubines who have no backing are no threat to the eldest wife. But if the eldest lady knew that she was completely inappropriate for a while and the person was actually of the same status as her, then it was impossible for her to be so calm, presumably the three of them and mother and son should have disappeared in this Li Mansion a long time ago.

"My mother is reluctant to leave the Li Mansion because of our identity?" Thinking of this, Li Liping asked again.

Liu Shufen sighed again and replied;

"If you can, Niang He didn't want to take your sister and brother out of here and live freely, but this is not possible.

First: I am your father's wife, and my household registration is in the Li Mansion, and this yamen has a record. Although your father has passed away, if the old lady doesn't give me a wife letter, I can't leave the Li Mansion, otherwise I will be treated as a fugitive wife, which is a felony. Only when you get the letter of release of your wife and leave the Li Mansion can you apply for your own household registration. And the old lady will not give me a wife book. Because the release of the wife book is equivalent to the divorce book, not only can I share a part of the family property with you, but you can also freely choose who to live with. If the old lady gives me a letter to release his wife, it means that he may not only lose you and your brother, but also lose a large part of the family property. Although the old lady doesn't like us, you are the blood of the Li Mansion after all, and for the sake of the Li Mansion's face, she will not let you leave, not to mention the family property. So it's impossible for the old lady to agree to give me a wife book!

Second; For the mother's life, he is an ominous person. Your grandfather and your father were both killed by me, and my mother can't kill Tuan Tuan anymore, so Tuan Tuan can't live with me! For this reason, in the past two years, even if I wanted to be a mother, I didn't dare to see him, because I was afraid that I would kill him. Wei Niang didn't dare to live with Tuan Tuan, and she couldn't rest assured that he would leave by himself. So even if we can't see each other like now, at least we're not far apart, and I can rest easy knowing that he's doing well.

Third: Although the subordinates occasionally make things difficult now, they are not too excessive, and the patience is over. Although food and clothing need to be purchased with money, as long as we work hard and don't freeze hungry at all, safety can be guaranteed in this Li Mansion.

Fourth: Although the Li Mansion is not as good as it used to be, the emaciated camel is bigger than the horse. You and Tuan Tuan are the daughters and daughters-in-law of the Li Mansion, and it is always good for you to have such an identity. Especially you, with the identity of the concubine of the Li Mansion, coupled with your appearance, you will definitely be able to find a good in-law. And Tuan Tuan, as the sister-in-law of the Li Mansion, can stay in the Li Mansion and have no worries about food and clothing for a lifetime.

The fifth and most important point is that even if we can leave the Li Mansion and live on our own, we orphans and widows are bullied, not to mention that we still have to spend money on food, clothing, housing and transportation. But Ke Wei has no ability, and she can't make much money at all. When the time comes, there will be no security and life may be a problem, let alone for your brother's education and dowry.

Because of these five reasons, it is impossible for Wei Niang to leave the Li Mansion. ”

After listening to the five reasons that Liu Shufen said, in addition to the first point, Li Liping turned her nose at the other four points. Especially the second reason, Liu Shufen's ignorance made Li Liping startled. I didn't expect Liu Shufen to be so superstitious! Just because of the Taoist priest's words, she really believed that she was an ominous person, afraid of killing her son, and she didn't dare to see her even if she missed it for more than two years. All the things about Tuan Tuan were inquired about by Xiao Cui. For example, the third young master got a compliment from Mr. again today, and the eldest lady was very happy to hear it, and specially rewarded the third young master with many good things and other news. These news made Liu Shufen feel that it was a wise decision to hand over Li Hongyuan to the eldest wife to be raised, but she did not personally confirm whether these news were true.

And the third and fourth reasons mentioned by Liu Shufen made Li Liping feel that Liu Shufen was too naïve. But she wasn't to blame for that. Although she was only born in a small family, she grew up under the care of her parents. Later, although he encountered a little twists and turns, he met Li Xiang again. After marrying Li Xiang, she has always been favored by Li Xiang, and there are no other women around her to fight with her. In the end, Li Xiang died, and they were driven here again, which is equivalent to being isolated from the world, although they are often harassed by their subordinates, but they have never met the real calculation or anything. So she didn't know how sinister the human heart really was.

Although Li Liping felt that Liu Shufen was both ignorant and naïve, her starting point was for herself and her younger brother, which made Li Liping very moved. But in this mansion, you can be kind, but you must not be so simple that you have no scheming. You can't have the heart to hurt others, but you can't have the heart to prevent people. Li Liping felt that Liu Shufen should still be given some vaccinations.

"How is my brother doing, did my mother want to go over and see? And what if the in-laws that the old lady found for her daughter are not good? What's more, what if you even let your daughter be a concubine for the benefit of the Li Mansion? ”

When Liu Shufen heard this, she was stunned at first, and then said angrily;

"What's wrong with you kid today? How can you think like that? For the sake of your mother's life, you can't go to see your brother, otherwise you will hurt her, this is what the Taoist priest said. Besides, the eldest lady is very good to Tuan Tuan, and everyone will talk about it, don't worry. And no matter how much the old lady doesn't like you, you are also her granddaughter, how can she harm you. Let you be a concubine, does the Li Mansion still have face? Take 10,000 steps back to talk about your marriage, and you have to nod your mother, if the person is not good, your mother will not agree. So you don't have to get cranky. ”

Seeing Liu Shufen's determination, Li Liping didn't say much more. These are just her conjectures, and she can't be completely sure, and it's not realistic to convince Liu Shufen without evidence. Forget it, since it is still safe and quiet except for the small difficulties of the subordinates, there is no need for her to take advantage of this opportunity for her to rest and rest. If there is really something, the big deal is that the soldiers will come to block it and act at the opportunity.

After figuring it out, Li Liping was no longer entangled and said to Liu Shufen;

"Mother, my daughter knows it's wrong. No more cranky thinking in the future. ”

Seeing that Li Liping realized her mistake, Liu Shufen said with a smile;

"My mother didn't blame you, but my mother didn't want you to take human nature so coldly. Human nature is good, and there are still many good people in this world. My mother also hopes that you can keep a kind heart to treat your life. ”

"Thank you, mother, my daughter will." Although Li Liping disagreed, she didn't want to refute it, and some things should be tested by time.
