Chapter Fifty-Three: When the Great Disaster Comes, They Fly Separately
"Ling Xiu'er, why did you bring my mother." Li's expression stiffened, and he didn't invite his mother's family in, and he didn't invite him in.
The Li family is a snobbish master, and now seeing that his wife has no use value in debt, he decisively hugged the thigh of the Cao family.
Ling Xiu'er returned to the hall by herself, this is her husband's house, so naturally she doesn't have to be polite.
Li Zhao followed Ling Xiu'er into the hall.
Seeing this, Li stomped his feet hatefully, and thought in pieces: "This old immortal still dares to come back......
"What the hell is going on?" Ling Xiu'er sat on a chair to rest, and after walking for half a day, she was finally able to rest for a while.
Li Zhao glanced at his daughter and didn't dare to say anything.
"That's Ling Xiu'er......" The Li family now can't see the pretentious appearance of their own mother, so they simply told Ling Xiu'er everything.
"Before, Fan Laosi wanted to occupy my mother's house and land, so he made a fake IOU saying that Li Feng had borrowed money, and now he wants to repay his debts, and if he can't repay his debts, he will use my mother's house and the top of the ground, so Li Feng ran away, I am worried that my mother will cause trouble in our Cao family, and give our old Cao family a cause of right and wrong, so I don't let my mother live here, my mother has a relative of her mother's family, and where she goes is the same." Lee defended himself.
She always did this for the sake of Lao Cao's family, but it was not that she was unfilial, where did she have a daughter who lived with her mother in her mother-in-law's house.
"She owes so much debt, although she is my mother, but you are my brother and sister, and I don't want to watch you be cheated by her." The Li family kept Ling Xiu'er away from Li Zhao's family, which was also to show his loyalty, after all, Ling Xiu'er and her man were not the same as in the past.
Ling Xiu'er didn't want to talk nonsense with a person like her who had no conscience, and since she promised Li Zhao, she would do what she said.
"Give her my old house to live in." Ling Xiu'er said.
Li Zhao, who was originally standing on the side, was silent when she heard her daughter count herself like this, but when she heard that Ling Xiu'er was still willing to give her a house to live in, she nodded happily: "Okay, okay." ”
The old woman was happy, but her daughter was not happy, Li secretly glared at Li Zhao, and then raised a smirk and said to Ling Xiu'er: "This is not good. ”
"That's my house with my husband, what's wrong, I have the right to call the shots." Ling Xiu'er glanced at her indifferently.
When Li saw Ling Xiu'er say this, she couldn't speak up anymore, so she had to say: "Let's wait for my mother and Xianggong to come back, after all, they are the elders of the family." ”
Hearing that the Li family moved her mother-in-law and eldest brother out, Ling Xiu'er hooked the corners of her mouth with sarcasm.
Then let Li take some tea out to quench his thirst.
Li Zhao may have cried for too long, and walked all the way, he was really thirsty, and the cow drank several bowls of water, and then wiped his mouth with his sleeve.
Ling Xiu'er remembered that Li Zhao had taken her sleeve to wipe her nose and tears before, and now she used her sleeve to wipe her mouth, and she wanted to remind her, but seeing that she didn't care, she just shook her head.
Soon Cao Li and her mother-in-law returned.
Li went out first, taking advantage of Cao Li's hoe to vaccinate his man.
"I can tell you, Ling Lingxiu'er brought my mother, no matter what she says, you are not allowed to promise my mother to stay, do you hear?"
Men have always been straightforward, and their daughter-in-law will naturally agree to whatever she says.
"Big brother, you're back, this is for the eldest brother." Ling Xiu'er got straight to the point, took out a bag of silver from her arms and handed it to Cao Li.
"What is this?" Cao Liang knew that Ling Xiu'er wanted him to accept the money, but he looked at the mother-in-law who was not angry, and turned around and did not take the silver.
Seeing that Cao Liang was soft and didn't eat it, Ling Xiu'er had no choice but to come hard.
She sighed deliberately: "Actually, I asked Li Zhao to stay and live for the sake of my father-in-law." ”
"My father-in-law is going to be an official in the scientific examination, and the voice of the people in the family will affect him, big brother, think about it, Li Zhao is your mother-in-law, if you don't take her in and let her live on the streets, it will inevitably be charged with unfilial piety." Ling Xiu'er looked at Cao Li's color and continued.
Cao Liang sat on the chair and began to think about Ling Xiu'er's words.
"When the time comes, it will affect Xianggong's reputation, and I am afraid it will hinder the road of Xianggong's scientific examination, so when will our Cao family have a bright future." Ling Xiu'er's tone was sad.
She knew that this eldest brother still had flesh and blood affection for Cao Yu, and he also hoped that Cao Yu could be an official and finally shine on the lintel.
The man sighed, slapped the table with his big rough hand: "Okay, so be it." He turned to his daughter-in-law and said, "Go and clean up the house where Ling Xiu'er used to live for our mother." ”
The Li family couldn't care about pretending in front of Ling Xiu'er anymore, and after following Cao Liang into the house, he went up to scold him.
Mrs. Wang was silent in the middle, Ling Xiu'er smiled, and took out the fabric that was originally going to be given to Granny Zhang: "Mother-in-law, I rarely came back, so I brought you a little clothes, don't dislike it." ”
The old woman's rough hands touched the fabric, and her eyes were full of wrinkles with a smile: "You said you, what are you spending money on these things." "Random and happy into the house.
Ling Xiu'er knew that it was all done.
Li Zhao was overjoyed when he saw that everyone had been dealt with by Ling Xiu'er, rubbed his hands and said, "Ling Xiu'er, you said that you helped me so much, I will definitely take you to find that old woman Wang tomorrow." ”
Her own daughter is unreliable, and Ling Xiu'er still found her a place to live, Li Zhao's opinion of Ling Xiu'er has really changed now.
Early the next morning, Li Zhao took Ling Xiu'er to find Granny Zhang.
"This one is." Li Zhao pointed to the dilapidated door.
"Anyone?" She knocked on the door.
An old voice sounded: "What to do." ”
"Granny Zhang, let's ask for the golden silkworm." Ling Xiu'er shouted through the door.
"I don't know what the golden silkworm is, you can find someone else." The old man's voice was full of anger, and he didn't even open the door for Ling Xiu'er and them.
Ling Xiu'er saw that the old man didn't open the door, so she was ready to wait until she came out.
Li Zhao didn't care, her temper came up all of a sudden: "You old woman, you have business for you to do, but you still don't do it." Take those silkworms into the coffin, ......."
scolded for a long time, the old woman didn't come out to open the door, Li Zhao was tired of scolding, squatted on the ground to rest, and suddenly sighed: "Hey, in fact, it's not easy for her, her husband died when she was pregnant in the early years, and then the child died before she was a year old and died for some reason, she is lonely and widowed until now, and she is also a bitter life." ”
Listening to Li Zhao's words, Ling Xiu'er had a flash of inspiration: "You take me to the grave of her boy and child to pay respects." ”
Although he thought it was strange, Li Zhao still did it.
Ling Xiu'er had just finished worshipping and was startled by Mrs. Zhang behind her.
"What the hell do you want to do?" She carried a bamboo basket on her body, and the basket was also used for worship.
"I want the golden silkworm to break Wu Zhen'er's monopoly." Ling Xiu'er is outspoken, the old man is very smart, there is no need to lie.
"Find someone else." The old woman still refuses to eat, and she has sworn not to raise the thing that brings bad luck. She knelt down to worship her children and husbands.
Ling Xiu'er was very anxious, "Wu Zhen'er of Xiangyun Pavilion sells fine fabrics at half price, and my store can't be opened, so I really can't come to you because I have no choice." ”
Hearing this, Granny Zhang suddenly changed her tone, "The Xiangyun Pavilion you are talking about is the one that sells embroidery in the county?" ”
Ling Xiu'er nodded, "Exactly." ”
Granny Zhang pondered for a while, sighed, and then said to Ling Xiu'er, "You come with me." ”
Li Zhao saw that Ling Xiu'er's goal was achieved, so he excused himself to leave, this old woman is too evil, she must not be unlucky.
After returning to the dilapidated house, Granny Zhang took out a jar from the corner: "Female doll, look, this is the golden silkworm." ”
The jar was pitch black, and Ling Xiu'er could only see it clearly by candlelight. The candle brought light, and Ling Xiu'er was shocked when she saw the situation inside.
