Chapter 9: Relatives Become Enemies (I)
The noon heat enveloped the Cao family inside and out.
Cao Yu and Ling Xiu'er sat on one side, Cao Liang on the opposite side drooped his head and couldn't see his expression, and the old woman Wang who was sitting on the top kept sighing.
"What can I do about this, the Li family will definitely not let our family go, she also has a younger brother who is a fast catcher......" The grievances of the old woman Wang made the atmosphere even more dull and hot.
Cao Liang slapped the table, stood up and said: "I drove the people away, if the Li family comes over, I, Cao Liang, want to kill or take them as they please, and I will never affect our Cao family." β
Having said that, Cao Li was instantly stunned, and turned to Cao Yu for help, "Second brother, you also want to think of a way, then Li Feng's fast catch is not vegetarian, if I am killed by him, who will support our mother." β
"It's okay, big brother don't worry, my wife and I will definitely not treat our mother badly."
Cao Yu said it freely, but Cao Li was about to cry.
Ling Xiu'er glanced at Cao Yu with a smile, she was becoming more and more fond of her father-in-law, and comforted: "Big brother, this matter is the Li family's fault first, you are the future head of the family, you can't be frightened by her few cruel words." β
"Brother and sister, you don't know, this mother-in-law is very ......"
"The surname Cao, give it to grandpa and I will come out!"
Cao Liang was about to complain to Ling Xiu'er, but the scolding outside frightened him and shrunk his neck, and he hid behind Cao Yu in a puff of smoke, and said unashamedly: "Second brother, you go with your younger brother and sister to see the situation first, I am here to protect our mother." β
Cao Yu didn't refuse, he knew that the eldest brother was a seedless.
He was about to open the door, but was stopped by Ling Xiu'er, "Xianggong, you can't go." β
Ling Xiu'er glanced at Cao Li and Mrs. Wang, who were hiding behind, and said to Cao Yu: "Li Feng's knife is not long-sighted, but he can't attack me as a weak woman. β
After speaking, he walked out first despite Cao Yu's response.
"The surname Cao, do you know that your grandfather is too scared to come out, open the door!"
There was a knock on the courtyard door, and Ling Xiu'er came to the gate, took a deep breath, and stepped back the moment she opened the door. The knocker didn't know that the door was suddenly opened, and due to inertia, he fell on his stomach, and his head was right at Ling Xiu'er's feet.
Ling Xiu'er smiled and asked Li Feng on the ground for a blessing, "Li Zhu will give me such a big gift as soon as he comes, I can't stand it." β
While speaking, Ling Xiu'er quickly glanced at the door, and there was a circle of villagers outside to watch the excitement, Li stood in front of people and obviously asked Li Feng to support him, but Li Feng fell before he was majestic and ate.
She stepped forward and dragged Li Feng up, squinting at Ling Xiu'er, "Where did the Cao family's unplanted ones go?" Let you open the door. β
Ling Xiu'er still had a smile on her face, "Entertain you, the abandoned woman of the Cao family, there is no need for them to come." β
"You, Ling Xiu'er, don't talk nonsense!" Li was about to slap him as he spoke, but Ling Xiu'er didn't know where to find the stick and pestle on the top door beside him.
Li was scared of being beaten in the past two days, thinking that Ling Xiu'er was going to beat her too, so she was so frightened that she quickly put away her slap.
Ling Xiu'er pestle the top door stick on the ground, and she didn't smile, "You have already returned to your parents' house this morning, didn't you go back because you divorced your wife?" β
"Divorce your wife? Li was divorced by the Cao family? β
"You didn't listen to it in the morning, I don't know what the Li family is doing again, the Cao family can't tolerate her with such a good temper."
The whispers of the villagers all fell into Li's ears, and her face turned red with shame.
At a critical time, Li Feng spoke, "You don't listen to this wicked woman's nonsense, my sister was not divorced, she went home because the Cao family beat her." β
"Then Li Zhukuai can know why the Cao family beat her?" The smile on Ling Xiu'er's face deepened, Li Feng was not as scheming as half of the Li family, at most he was bright and bright with a big knife to fill the faΓ§ade.
"Li committed seven ......"
"Ling Xiu'er, shut up!"
Li scolded Ling Xiu'er in time, if her ugly things were shaken out by Ling Xiu'er, she was not here to be angry, but to humiliate her.
"Li Feng, you don't have to talk nonsense with her, it's not right to beat people anyway, you go in and take the Cao family brothers out."
With Li Shi in command, Li Feng showed his official knife, and the white bright blade made the villagers who watched the excitement retreat, but Ling Xiuer still stood in front of the door with a stick.
Li Feng deliberately slashed Ling Xiu'er twice with an official knife, and said viciously: "If you don't get out of the way quickly, if you stop me from performing my official duties, you will be punished." β
Ling Xiu'er was not afraid at all, her eyes were clear, and her waist was straight, "The folk girl doesn't know what kind of official duties Li Zhu is about to perform, and whether there is a decree from the county commander." β
In the past, it was Li Feng who flashed his knife, and everything that should not be let go of the way, but now Ling Xiu'er not only didn't let it, but also questioned herself, which was really bold.
Without waiting for Li Feng to speak, Ling Xiu'er continued: "If you let the county magistrate know that Li Zhukuai used his public office to do private things and spread the orders of the yamen, I don't know how long Li Zhukuai can wear this clothes." β
Ling Xiu'er said innocently, but the smile on her face made Li Feng feel cold in the dog days, he put away the knife in a hurry, Li thought he was cowardly, and hurriedly smashed his waist with his elbow.
Li Feng coughed lightly, a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, and pointed to a person beside him: "I'm afraid you don't know who he is!" β
Ling Xiu'er looked at what he said, a tall and thin man in black, just looking at the fabric on his body, it didn't look like an ordinary person could wear it.
Li Feng said proudly: "This is the son of today's county order, Huang Gongzi!" β
Huang Shouren's face was expressionless, he didn't come today, but he had no choice but to steal money and gamble and was discovered by Li Feng, in order to prevent him from telling his father, he could only cooperate with Li Feng to make this appearance.
Now he put out the genealogy of the son of the county order, and said arrogantly: "The Cao family is guilty of beating people, and this son wants to return the Li family's innocence today."
Then Li Feng grabbed Ling Xiu'er's top door stick with one hand, no matter how strong Ling Xiu'er was, he couldn't compare to a man, the top door stick was taken away by Li Feng and thrown aside, Ling Xiu'er's body was unstable and fell backwards.
The blue-gray figure happened to appear behind Ling Xiu'er, and seeing that it was Cao Yu, Ling Xiu'er said reproachfully: "What are you doing when you come out, I can handle it." β
"I know." Cao Yu helped Ling Xiu'er up, helped her straighten her wrinkled clothes, and lowered her voice to approach her: "The one in the back, leave it to me." β
The man's warm breath stroked Ling Xiu'er's earlobe, and her face became red. Looking at Cao Yu, who was already facing away from her, Ling Xiu'er didn't let go of the triumphant smile on the corner of Cao Yu's mouth.
He did it on purpose.
