Chapter 22: Expulsion Again

Li Jingshan was stunned, looked up in amazement, and didn't know how to answer.

Didn't the sons and young heroes who acted bravely in the book all say "It's a trivial matter, you don't have to be polite", and then leave in a dashing manner, hiding their merits and fame? !

Ruan Mingyu smiled more and more ambiguously, and picked up Li Jingshan's chin with a horsewhip, and her peach blossom eyes became brighter and more moving, "If you want to thank me, the girl wants to make a promise?" ”

- Aren't all such episodes in the play!?

Ruan Mingyu's face was full of banter, but Li Jingshan was completely stunned, staring wide-eyed and speechless.

Ruan Mingyu looked at her stunned appearance and couldn't help laughing. He turned the horse's head, spurred the horse, and went away. Hearty laughter came from afar, "I owe this love first, and I will pay it back in the next life!" ”

Li Jingshan stood in a daze, and she did not come back to her senses until the two horses were out of sight. A sentence popped up inexplicably in my messy mind: My intended person will come in the eyes of everyone, wearing golden armor and holy clothes, stepping on colorful auspicious clouds......

In the end, I found out that the man was actually a peacock?!

Li Jingshan hurriedly shook her head vigorously, throwing this absurd thought behind her. She looked at the messy clothes on her body, quickly retrieved the painting book that had fallen halfway, and walked home quickly. After only two steps, I stepped on a hard object or thing.

She looked down and picked it up, and it was a colorful pearl oyster button. The pearl shell is as white as jade, and the red sapphire inlaid on it is in excellent condition, and it is a very exquisite one at a glance. Li Jingshan remembered that the boy's coat was a royal blue brocade robe with a shallow red edge, and the brightly colored buttons complemented each other.

"It's really a sassy bag to dress so brightly." Li Jingshan muttered quietly and put the button into her purse. It's just that she didn't notice it herself, and a shallow smile hung on the corner of her mouth.

-------

Li Jingshan hurried home, just wanting to change the dirty clothes as soon as possible, so as not to let her mother and younger brother see it and scare them. Unexpectedly, there were a few people from the Li family around the gate of the courtyard. Mrs. Li was arguing with them at the door.

"What's going on? What are you doing here? Li Jingshan stepped forward with angry eyes.

Those people sneered at Li Jingshan, who was untidy, and pouted, "We came to inform you that in order to organize the palm print ceremony of Second Master Li, the Li ancestral hall is going to be expanded and renovated." The courtyard where you now live will be torn down and rebuilt. Hurry up and pack up your things and move away, tomorrow's construction team will be over! ”

Li Jingshan was stunned when she heard this, her head banged, and she looked at them in disbelief, "I will tear it down tomorrow...... Are we moving out today? ”

"Exactly! If you understand, don't grind, hurry up and pack your things! The men waved impatiently.

Mrs. Li hid her face and cried: "It's so urgent, let's go where to find a place to stay for a while!" ”

"That's not our business. The words have also been brought, let's go! After those Li clansmen finished speaking, they turned around and wanted to leave.

Li Jingshan didn't care about her disheveled clothes, stopped in front of them, and shouted, "Slow! When we were allowed to live here, it was also approved by the patriarch's third uncle! Why do you want us to move! ”

Even in modern times, the government and government forced demolition did not say that it would be demolished, and it did not even give time for relaxation! This is simply too deceitful!

As soon as he shouted like this, some villagers had gathered around to watch the excitement. Li Jingshan said loudly: "Everyone, we are still members of the Li family, can't we even live in the old house of our own clan!" Is there such a bully! ”

The clothes on her body were torn and messy by this morning's scoundrel, and now they are seen by outsiders, but they make people mistakenly think that she was bullied by the Li clan. Sure enough, the onlookers began to talk about it, and they all hugged her grievances.

"That girl's clothes are torn, it's pathetic......"

"This orphan and widow, how can he do it!"

"That's it! It's too much of a deception! ”

The clansmen hurriedly argued: "Who, who has insulted you?" We didn't do it! We're just here to get the word across. ”

"Snortβ€”β€”! You are embarrassed to call yourself the Li family. The Li family's face has been lost to your room. A shrill voice came.

Li Jingyao wore flowers and branches, walked up to her step by step, and said contemptuously: "You are a slave, do you think that you can be arrogant by selling a few sachets and purses!" ”

Li Jingshan's face was pale, she only knew at this time that she had met Li Jingyao in Xiuzhuang that day, and this matter had already passed for her, but for Li Jingyao, it had not passed at all. Bigger traps await her here.

She held her head high and looked directly at Li Jingyao fearlessly, "Even if I am a slave, I am also self-reliant to support myself and my family. It didn't cost the Li family a penny! Why is there no face? ”

Li Jingyao's eyes were full of malice, and she said fiercely: "Your father is a sinner who deceives the king, your family has been expelled from the ancestral house, and you have become a slave." If I were you, I might as well die before I was too late! ”

Li Jingshan hated them for insulting her father at will. Her father died in prison without knowing what to do, and he was hastily convicted, and even if he was wronged, there was nowhere to redress. This has always been a knot in her heart, but now it has been used again and again to be wantonly slandered.

She instantly felt anger rushing to the top of her head, her face turned red, she stared at Li Jingyao and sneered: "Some people don't care about shame, they commit the thing of being immersed in a pig cage in the secluded forest, and they don't die. I'm innocent, why am I in a hurry to die! ”

"You! What nonsense are you talking about? Li Jingyao's face turned white in an instant, she was angry and panicked, and she understood that what she and the Ma family did in the woods was known to Li Jingshan. She broke her body before she left the cabinet, if this matter was known by the clan, she would really be immersed in the pig cage!

"Iβ€”I'll tear your mouth apart!" She raised her hand and slapped Li Jingshan in the face.

Li Jingshan raised her hand to hold her wrist, and was about to shout to hit someone, when she saw a figure rushing over and pushing Li Jingyao to the ground.

It turned out to be Mrs. Li!

She burst into tears, trembling with excitement, pulled Li Jingshan over to protect her, and said in a trembling voice: "You, why are you beating Shan'er." It's all you...... That's what made her ......," she covered her mouth and cried.

Mrs. Li has always felt guilty because of Li Jingshan's selling herself to pay off her debts, but now she sees that her Shan'er has been humiliated and beaten again, and a weak and indisputable lady has gone out like an old hen protecting her chicks.

"How dare you hit me!" Li Jingyao pointed at Mrs. Li incredulously. She was annoyed and angry, and yelled at the Li clansmen: "What are you guys doing in a daze? Seeing that I'm being bullied and still don't help? Call me! As he spoke, he got up and pounced again.

Those Li clan people saw the three women scuffling together, and they only dared to step forward to fight, and they didn't dare to really beat people. After all, this is a matter for their descendants, and the long house has declined, if there is a reputation for their bullying, it will be their reputation in the clan.

"Stop!"

Li Zhang hurried over, inserted himself between the three of them, stretched out his hand and pulled Li Jingyao to a stumbling block, and threw her onto a clansman next to her.

"You! Are you also the opposite! Li Jingyao was also disheveled, the hairpin ring was scattered, and she pointed at Li Zhang and shouted.

Li Zhang ignored her, only stood in the middle, and said impartially: "Mrs. Li, the eldest lady, and the second miss." The third uncle invited everyone to his yard to talk about it. ”

-------

When the third uncle saw the three disheveled women, his head was big!

He calmly asked them to be brought into the house to freshen up, and then found a few blouses and dresses for them to change, and then sat in the middle of the lobby, suppressed his anger and said: "In front of the public, several women and children actually fought a lot, what kind of system!" I'll call someone to find Zhixuan and come over, and you guys will solve whatever you have in your own house!" ”

As he was talking, Li Zhixuan also came in sweating, and hurriedly apologized: "I didn't expect that as soon as the eldest brother went, the people in the long room were so ignorant of the rules, and they made you unhappy." ”

When Li Jingshan heard this, her willow eyebrows rose: "Dare to ask Second Master Li, according to what you said, you want to demolish our house, and we have to live on the streets obediently, so that we can understand the rules?" ”

"Your house?" Li Zhixuan sneered and replied, "Do you have a deed or a title deed?" ”

"At the beginning in the ancestral hall, there was a third uncle who testified, but you personally allowed our family to live! What you said with red mouth and white teeth, you want to regret it in front of the third uncle? Li Jingshan knew that she had to pull the third uncle, otherwise with their current status in the Li family, they would only be trampled under Li Zhixuan's feet.

The third uncle really frowned and waved his hand, "Your grandson's affairs, now that you are the head of the family, you can take care of it well, and let a few people shrew scold the street and make trouble outside the ancestral hall, and you are not afraid to give people jokes!" ”

The implication is that if you can't even manage the inner courtyard house, how can the clan rest assured that Si Zhenfang will be managed by him.

Li Zhixuan has not officially palmed the palm print now, his heart is cold, and he bowed his head and responded: "Yes, it is the little nephew who mishandled it, so that the relatives are not sven, and he is smiling and generous, and he will be strictly disciplined when he goes back." It's just that the house has to be demolished. ”

He saw that the third uncle's face was pale, and he hurriedly said: "Over there in the long house, I'll give them some silver taels and let them rent outside." ”

Li Zhixuan saw that the third uncle nodded slightly, so he walked up to Mrs. Li, took out a silver ticket of ten taels and handed it over, "Sister-in-law, you quickly take the money and go find a place to stay." There's no use making trouble here. ”

Mrs. Li thought that this silver could also be urgent, and was about to reach out to take it, but was stopped by Li Jingshan. She sneered: "This is only ten taels of silver, which is not enough for two months' rental money, and after two months, where will the second uncle let us live?" ”

Her words pierced Li Zhixuan's mind, which he originally thought.

Li Zhixuan saw that the third uncle looked over again, waited for his reply, and hurriedly walked to his side and whispered: "Third uncle, the old house of the ancestral hall at the beginning, not to mention, we only borrowed it for them." As the saying goes, the emergency does not help the poor. If they only care about reaching out and asking for money, I can't support them for the rest of my life! ”

The third uncle was annoyed by the commotion of the family, took the silver ticket and put it on the table in front of Li Jingshan, and said coldly: "This money is for you to temporarily contingency, and you should find a place to live in two months." The Li family doesn't raise people who eat white rice! ”

Li Jingshan only felt cold teeth, it turned out that her family was struggling for a living, and in their eyes, it turned out to be a white rice! She suppressed her anger and took the silver ticket, and suddenly the words "save the emergency but not the poor" gave her a flash of inspiration.

She bowed to the third uncle, and said neither humbly nor arrogantly: "Third uncle, although we are poor, we are not lazy people. When we came out of the main house, we didn't spend a penny on the Li family. As for the second uncle, he scolded us for not understanding the rules, even if we didn't say anything," she squinted at Li Jingyao, "but it is a hundred times stronger than some people who don't know the rules!" And we don't know the rules, but we can't blame it. ”

Li Zhixuan said sharply, "Who do you say is shameless?" ”
