192. New Weather Nine (Asking for a Monthly Pass)
New Weather Nine
Over at the old house, Li Qi frowned when he looked at the heavy rain outside, and said to Wang, "Mother, the rain is so heavy, I want to go back and see, Xiaoxue and the child are at home, I am a little worried, and I will come to accompany you and my father tomorrow." ”
Wang glanced at the old man and said, "Third brother, do you know about your brother's marriage?" ”
Li Qi was stunned, what did he have to do with Li Ping's marriage when he went back, was his mother worried that he would not help Li Ping, thinking of this, he smiled and said, "Mother, I know about the fourth brother's marriage, don't worry, I will definitely come over to help when I get married." ”
Wang flattened his mouth, who rarely Li Qi came to help, she didn't mean this at all, squeezed out a smile and said, "Third child, Ping'er is not easy, the previous daughter-in-law ran away, and now there are many conditions, you are Ping'er's brother, you can't just ignore it." ”
Li Qi was confused by Wang's words, shook his head and said, "Mother, you can just make it clear, I don't understand what it means at all." ”
The corners of Wang's mouth twitched even more, this third child is really stupid or pretending to be stupid, "Third child, my mother means, you earn so much money, just buy a house for your brother, and it won't cost much, and your brother will be grateful to you for a lifetime." ”
Li Qi's brain twitched, and he said directly in his heart, "Mother, the reason why you left me here is for this." Li Qi was disappointed for a while, he thought that the old lady really cared about him, but he didn't expect it to be for Li Ping.
Wang couldn't pretend anymore, and said directly with a cold face, "Why, let you take some money out so reluctantly, third, don't forget that I am your mother, without me, you don't know where it is, so you can earn so much money and I also have my credit, I don't ask you how much you want, just take out a hundred taels of silver to buy a house for your brother." ”
Li Qi opened his mouth wide and said in disbelief, "Mother, one hundred taels, you think I'm a rich man, I can give one hundred taels to others casually." Li Qi took out the money bag and poured out the silver inside, and said, "That's all I have all over my body, and I don't have any more." ”
Wang lowered his head and glanced at it, and said angrily, "Five taels of silver, the third child, you send it to Huazi, your mother and I have raised you for so many years are worth this bit of silver, your conscience has been eaten by dogs, old man, you see that this is our good son, he has gold and silver mountains, and he can't see his father and mother starving to death." ”
Li Qi lowered his head and said nothing, Lin Xue had already told him that the family's money had to be used to raise four children, so he must be cautious when spending money, he couldn't spend a penny that should be spent, and not a penny that should not be spent, in his opinion, Li Ping buying a house is money that should not be spent, and the old house is not without a place to live.
Seeing that Li Qi didn't speak, Wang's anger in his heart was even stronger, he grabbed the silver on the kang and threw it at Li Qi, and said, "Third brother, you are dumb, your mother I said so much that you shouldn't be able to hear it, right, it's really a long skill." "Wang got down from the kang and shouted to the door, fourth, fourth, come in, my mother has something to tell you."
"Mother, what's the matter, I still have to go out." Li Ping walked in and said impatiently.
Wang pointed to Li Qi and said, "Fourth, your third brother has promised to buy you a house, you can ask him for money, and my mother won't get involved." ”
"Mother, what are you talking about, I didn't agree at all, how can you talk nonsense to the fourth brother." Li Qi said with a frown.
Li Ping was overjoyed at first, but then his face sank again when he heard Li Qi's words, and he gritted his teeth and asked, "Third brother, is what my mother said true?" You're going to buy me a house. ”
Before Li Qi could answer, Wang preemptively said, "Of course it's true, third child, is it possible that you have to swear to the sky before you admit that you said this." ”
Li Qi was speechless, this old lady played a scoundrel, he really couldn't help it, walked to the old man and said, "Dad, you have been by the side, I haven't said anything about you, you must know, you can help me clarify it, mother, she ......"
"Clarify what." The old man put down the cigarette stick, stood up and said, "Third brother, is it possible that you want to force your mother to death, isn't it just a hundred taels of silver, don't you take it out and it's over." ”
"Dad, I didn't mean that." Li Qi shouted helplessly, looking at Wang and the old man, Li Qi had a strange feeling, is this still a father?
The old man sat down again, and said lightly, "If you don't mean that, just send the silver over, Ping'er is about to get married, and this house will be renovated and arranged in a tight time, fourth, you have been looking around recently, there is a built house to sell, and we will buy it when your third brother sends the money." ”
Li Ping nodded happily, there are many houses built in the village, and he has already seen a few of them, rubbed his hands and said, "Dad, I'll ask now, third brother, my brother thank you this time, if there is anything in the future, I will try my best to help." ”
After Li Ping left, Wang also sat back on the kang with his little feet, and said with a satisfied smile on his face, "Third child, my mother won't leave you to eat, you hurry back and bring the silver, your brother is still waiting." After Wang finished speaking, he waved his hand at Li Qi.
The rain had already stopped, and the road was muddy, Li Qishen walked back with one shallow foot, and kept thinking about how to tell Lin Xue about it.
Li Qi walked to the door of the house, looked at the empty door and didn't dare to push it open and walked in, he was hesitating Dagui to come back from outside, looked at Li Qi and said, "Big brother, why don't you go in, what are you doing at the door." ”
Li Qi was stunned for a moment, then said with a smile, "Let's go in, Dagui, nothing happened at home today." ”
Dagui's face sank, and he said, "Big brother, your eldest niece came to make trouble today, and the sister-in-law was injured, I really can't figure out how you and your sister-in-law are such good people, how can there be such relatives, it's too difficult." ”
Li Qi didn't listen to the latter words at all, his mind was full of Lin Xue's injury, he pushed the door open and ran in, Lin Xue was drinking tea in the living room, and when he saw Li Qi coming in, he frowned and said, "Master, why did you come back, don't you have to accompany your father?" ”
Li Qi walked up to Lin Xue, looked up and down and said, "Xiaoxue, I heard that you were injured, it's not serious, and I didn't see a doctor." ”
The anger in Lin Xue's heart disappeared a little, and she pointed to her right hand and said, "It's not a big deal, it's just that I fell and my arm was bruised." ”
Li Qi was relieved, sat down and said, "Xiaoxue, why did Lulu come over to make trouble, didn't she leave with Yang Jian?" The sister-in-law said she saw them leave the village with her own eyes. ”
Lin Xue was stunned for a moment, left, and asked suspiciously, "Master, did the sister-in-law say that they went there, Li Lu told me that Yang Jian didn't want her anymore, so she came here to beg me to take her in." ”
"Impossible." Li Qi was weak for a while, this matter had not been resolved, and another thing happened, scratching his head and saying, "Xiaoxue, sister-in-law only said that they left, and didn't know where they went, I think the two of them should have quarreled, and Li Lu will run back." ”
Lin Xue nodded, put this matter behind, and said, "Be in charge, don't talk about other things, how can you come back, you don't have to be a filial son in the past." ”
Li Qi's face turned red directly, and he said embarrassedly, "Xiaoxue, don't laugh at me, my mother kept me because she wanted money, not because she didn't miss me at all, the fourth brother wanted to buy a house when he got married, and my mother said that I wanted to pay for the money." ”
Lin Xue was not surprised at all, she had already thought of this possibility, raised her head and said, "Then you agreed, let's say, how much silver will your mother want this time." ”
Li Qi smiled bitterly and said, "Xiaoxue, do you believe me if my father and mother are scoundrels?" I didn't agree at all, but my father and mother didn't even have a chance to object, and if I didn't give it, it would be to force my mother to death. ”
Lin Xue sighed in her heart, this old lady and the old man really cooperate tacitly, and they understand Li Qi's temperament very clearly, and what she said makes Li Qi want to object, "Master, then what are you going to do, really send the silver over." ”
"Xiaoxue, I can't do anything else, the last time is good." Li Qi pleaded, his father and mother can play scoundrels, but he can't, maybe this is the sadness of honest people.
Looking at Li Qi's expression, Lin Xue's heart softened for a moment, and she couldn't bear to let him be caught in the middle, but she thought of compromising this time, so what about next time, Lin Xue stood up and said, "Boss, Li Xiao plans to do business, I have promised to lend him money, and the rest of our family still has to live, otherwise you let your mother put it on first, and when the food comes down, how about we pay it back to her." ”
Li Qi looked embarrassed, Lin Xue's proposal was impossible for his mother to agree, and said again, "Xiaoxue, don't we have a lot of cash in our family, even if Li Xiao borrowed some, it shouldn't be a problem to take out a hundred taels." ”
Lin Xue took a deep breath, this old lady was really angry, it cost a hundred taels to buy a house, she shook her head and said, "No, if you don't believe it, go back to the house and take a look yourself, there are only fifty taels of silver left in the box except for the title deed, if you can't bear to let our mother and son go hungry, then you can take it." ”
Li Qi had no intention of going to see it, he knew that since Lin Xue said so, then what he saw must be the same, and said with a wry smile, "Xiaoxue, why do you say this, even if I am hungry, I will not let your mother and son go hungry, forget it, I will solve it myself." ”
Li Qi's performance made Lin Xue very satisfied, and after thinking about it, he said, "Master, then how are you going to solve it, one hundred taels is not a small amount, even if you borrow it, you can't borrow so much." ”
Li Qi slumped on the chair, looked at the roof and said, "What else can I do, it's good to be a scoundrel once, anyway, my father and mother won't want to see me, and it's a big deal to go to the old mansion less in the future." ”
