161 Kneel at the door
"What's wrong with me?"
Li Huai pretended to be a grandson for a long time, and found that Qiao Ximei was not as usual, as long as he showed guilt and showed that he knew his mistakes, he forgave himself, and suddenly felt that he couldn't pretend anymore.
He straightened his neck and shouted at Qiao Ximei:
"What's wrong with me?"
"Sister Zhu'er has an accident, isn't it uncomfortable for me to be a father?
But the little young master of the Pang family has already cooked raw rice into cooked rice, and if he doesn't marry Sister Zhu to him, who else can Sister Zhu marry?
Even if there is a single poor man from a small family who is willing to marry Sister Zhu, will he definitely be good to Sister Zhu?
At that time, life will be poor, people will be depressed, Sister Zhu'er's dowry will be spent, and she may be tortured to death!
No matter how much her mother's family helps, can she still care about her for the rest of her life? ”
"Brother Huai'er, you are so thoughtful......
Then why don't you want to think about it, what is it like for Sister Zhu to do this?
If you want to marry Sister Zhu to such a brute, you don't want to think about it, how sad Sister Zhu must be in her heart? How sad? Wouldn't she be scared in her heart? ”
Qiao Ximei said as she spoke, and she couldn't go on with a choked voice.
She rarely shed tears, she rarely cried.
What are tears for?
What's the use of crying?
This time, she couldn't help it, the sadness, disappointment and sourness in her heart made her unable to control her voice and tears.
Sister Zhu'er, this child, has been smart and clever since she was a child, looks good, and learned from her father, can write, can plan to plate, better than many people's fathers!
With Sister Zhu'er's appearance and ability, not to mention being the housewife of the children of the official eunuchs, it is more than enough to support a craftsman family with thin fields, or to be the head lady of a small businessman!
Qiao Ximei never thought that Sister Zhu'er's life would be so bitter! It would be such a flying disaster!
Now this pair of unsuccessful fathers and mothers even want to give her to that beast as a concubine!
The more Qiao Ximei thought about it, the more angry she became, and she picked up the whip that drove the donkey and whipped it to the ground in front of Li Huai:
"You! Take that foolish wife of yours and get out of here! ”
Cao's face was confused, and he couldn't help but roar in his heart:
"From beginning to end, I didn't dare to say a word! Can this hook up to me too? ”
Li Huai didn't get out.
He limped and pulled the stunned Cao family, walked to the outside of the Li family's courtyard, and knelt down at the gate of the courtyard.
He didn't speak, but knelt there quietly.
made up his mind, as long as the old couple didn't let go, he wouldn't get up.
When the time comes, his leg will have to be broken more completely, maybe that good leg will also suffer, he can't stand up, see if his father and mother are distressed!
Qiao Ximei was so angry that the green tendons on her forehead jumped suddenly, and she almost fell headlong without taking a breath.
Thanks to Li Xiyi, who had just picked up the tofu shop, he saw from a distance that the situation was wrong, so he hurriedly ran over and helped the old lady in time.
Qiao Ximei burst into tears: "What kind of sin have I created!" ”
At the same time, she was also aroused by Li Huai's behavior, which aroused the strength and stubbornness in her original nature.
Qiao Ximei snorted coldly, and her heart was as hard as iron and put down the cruel words:
"If you want to kneel, kneel! You have the ability to kneel to death! ”
Cao, who was pulled by Li Huai to kneel together, was suddenly anxious.
She knows the temper of the old lady Qiao Xiaomei too well! It looks like I'm really angry!
She hurriedly knelt and rubbed forward, stretched out her fingers, and quietly poked Li Huai, who was kneeling upright in front of her:
"Master, master, our mother seems to be really angry!
This hard one doesn't work, let's still come to the soft one, grind it slowly! ”
Li Huai was also angry, and whispered impatiently when he heard this:
"Shut up! Get on your knees honestly! ”
Cao didn't dare to say it anymore, but she knelt down, and she was really not honest at all.
She couldn't help but crane her neck for a while to look into the courtyard to see if Qiao Ximei was secretly paying attention to the movement here, and then looked around and looked to both sides, wondering if there would be neighbors passing by......
It's a pity that most of the people are working in the fields.
In the past half month, the weather has become more and more dry, and many families have mobilized as a family, regardless of adults and children, to carry water to water the ground and protect the seedlings.
The water levels in the two water sources in the backing mountain have dropped significantly, and the people in the village are going crazy.
At this juncture, you can't do any work, who still has the spare time to pay attention to other people's bad things?
Not to mention other families, even Li Jingfu, who was aggrieved and sick a few days ago, couldn't lie down on the kang.
As soon as his body was better, he took his children and grandchildren to the field, but no one could persuade him.
Affected by this wave of drought, the sales of Lao Li's tofu have decreased a lot.
Fortunately, soon, Li Yunxin came up with a recipe for making edamame tofu and soy tofu. If you make too much on a given day, you will have a proper place to go for the tofu that you can't sell or eat that day.
In order to make soy tofu, Li Yunxin also specially customized a batch of small jars and jars with Li Mei, and now that Li Mei saw Li Yunxin, she couldn't help but smile, and looked at her very highly.
What Li Huai and Cao never expected was that Qiao Ximei never let go.
Let the two of them kneel at the gate of the courtyard.
He didn't persuade them to get up, he didn't scold them to vent his hatred, and he didn't even give them a sip of water.
It was getting dark, and there were more mosquitoes.
Li Huai's body, face, neck, and hands were bitten by mosquitoes for many red envelopes.
The two of them could no longer kneel.
They staggered to their feet, and when they were supporting each other to move forward, Li Jingfu came back with a group of children and grandchildren.
Although Li Jingfu is not young, his eyes are still very good, and he saw Li Huai and his family kneeling in front of their house from afar.
What kind of mess did Li Huai commit, he was able to make Qiao Ximei so angry that he was willing to punish him for kneeling?
Li Jingfu was wondering, and saw that Li Huai and his family had already stood up. Li Jingfu suddenly felt a little liver fire rising. This kid, isn't he fooling his mother?
Could it be that his mother punished him to kneel, and he dared to get up halfway?
Li Jingfu ignored Li Huai and his family, passed them, and went directly into the courtyard.
Li Jingfu's children and grandchildren followed the old man's footsteps.
Seeing that the old man didn't pay attention to Li Huai and his family, they also followed into the courtyard silently.
There was not even a person who greeted Li Huai and his wife. Including Li Yu, who has always been the least aware of the direction of the wind, did not say a word.
Li Huai followed behind them with a gloomy face, and also limped into the house.
Cao followed behind him timidly.
She knelt for a long time, except for the pain in her legs and numbness in her feet, she was only afraid.
If Qiao Ximei takes Li Huai's confrontation with her, she will count it on her head...... Then you'll be miserable!
Do you want to say that the Cao family doesn't feel sorry for Li Yunzhu? That was actually wronging her.
But this person has become accustomed to selfishness, and the first thing that comes to mind is inevitably herself.
