Chapter 281: Stepmother
On the first day of the new year, the Xia family packed all the things that should be taken away, and tomorrow the Xia family will live in the rented yard, and Zhao Liang will also go there tomorrow to send them off. Until the tenth day of the first month, she and Xia Shan and Tian Qing's families will live there, waiting for Zhao Liang to marry her back.
Zhao Niuniu has been playing here, and when she heard that Zhao Liang had come back, she went back to the next door. The meal was made by Tian Qing's mother He'an, and she would give one to their father and daughter to eat.
Xia had just left home to put the food on the table when he heard a noise in the courtyard next door.
An's mother, who went over there to deliver food, came back and said, "There are three guests here, who are General Zhao's father, stepmother, and nephew. Those people were disgusted, especially the old woman, as soon as she entered the courtyard, her eyes were spinning, saying that General Zhao was so rich and lived in such a good yard, but he did not respect his old father and mother, and did not give his poor brother in the countryside......"
Xia Li's face sank. That old woman is even more annoying than Mrs. Xia, so she has to find a way to send them away, and she can't let her bully Xia in the name of her mother-in-law.
An's mother smiled again, "When I came back, General Zhao asked me to tell my wife to rest assured that he would find a way to send the old lady away before getting married, so that she would not pinch you." ”
Xia blushed and nodded. She didn't think Zhao Liang did something wrong, and it wasn't that she didn't want to honor her mother-in-law, that old woman was a stepmother, who had seriously injured Zhao Liang and almost killed Zhao Niuniu.
After eating, Xia Li and a few people were playing in the yard with two dogs and one bear, when they heard a cry and scolding from next door.
An old woman's voice said, "God, you're just going to marry a widow, and you've brought so many oil bottles, and you've bought so many dowries. Old man, the boss loses his conscience, he is not filial, and he ignores filial piety for his daughter-in-law. lied to us that he had no money, but his family bought such a big yard and bought such a generous dowry. God, even the yellow flower girl is not so valuable......"
The two courtyards are only separated by a wall, and the loud voice can be heard clearly. Their family heard clearly, and the other family heard clearly.
Xia was embarrassed and indignant, wiped his tears and returned to the room.
It's infuriating! Xia Li didn't want to wait for Zhao Liang to clean them up, she had to do it first.
She said a few words to Xiong Xiang, went back to the house, took a mud projectile in her hand, and went out with Xiong Xiang. After more than a year of practice, her "two-finger bullet" has become more powerful, and she has a certain striking power within five meters.
The courtyard door of the Zhao family was not inserted, it must be that Zhao Liang's father and daughter were dizzy and forgot about it. She walked straight in and into the Hanging Flower Door. The voice came from the West Chamber, where Zhao Liang's prepared dowry was placed.
Xia Li walked to the middle of the courtyard, the door of the west chamber was not closed, and he saw a thin old woman in the house crying and wiping her tears, and her mouth was still dry and scolding. An old man pointed at Zhao Liang unhappily and scolded, and a little boy was nibbling on snacks.
Zhao Liang clenched his fists and glared at the old woman angrily, Zhao Niuniu pulled Zhao Liang's clothes, her mouth was tightly pursed, and her face was full of anger.
Zhao Liang said, "Dad, I should be filial to you, all the clansmen, villagers, and documents can testify." If you want to stay at your son's house for a few more days, your son is welcome. But this Liu can't do it, she rubbed my previous daughter-in-law to death, and almost rubbed my daughter to death, and many villagers can also testify. My daughter-in-law hasn't married me yet, and she's sprinkled again. Let her go, she's not welcome here......" Since the old woman almost killed Zhao Niuniu, Zhao Liang didn't even talk to her about face.
The old man pointed at him and scolded, "You stinky boy, what do you say, your daughter-in-law died of illness by herself, why is it on your mother's head......"
Zhao Liang roared, "She is not my mother, my mother died a long time ago." ”
The old woman was even more angry, crying and scolding, "Ouch, God open your eyes, this son is very unfilial, for the sake of an old widow ......"
Xia Li shouted inside, "Old Qianwu, your stinky mouth is more stinky than a pit, who are you scolding?" ”
Zhao Liang was very embarrassed when he saw Xia Li, and came out and said, "Don't worry, before your mother marries into the door, I will let her go." ”
The old woman had a strong fighting spirit, jumped up and scolded, "Dead girl, who are you, dare to run to my house to spill!" ”
Xia Li said coldly, "I'm my mother's oil bottle." If you dare to scold my mother, I will scold you. ”
Zhao Niuniu also plucked up the courage to say, "This is my home, don't scold my aunt." ”
The old woman was not afraid when she heard that it was an oil bottle, wiped away her tears and snorted coldly, "God, I just realized that your mother has not yet married, and such a big girl will go to the man's house to scold people first, and she will scold the elders." Tsk, won't your mother come with you, it's still embarrassing to be ......."
She walked out as she spoke, her voice getting louder and louder, trying to attract the neighbors and let people see this shameless dead girl. This is how she cleaned up Zhao Liang before, the better he faced, the more afraid he was of being scolded for being unfilial, the louder she scolded people, forcing him to be unable to take out the money in his pocket little by little.
As soon as she crossed the threshold, she saw a large black creature emerge from behind the tree and run towards her with its bloody mouth wide open, and she was so frightened that she screamed, and felt a numbness in her legs, and fell down the steps.
Zhao Liang and Xia Li didn't move, Old Man Zhao was frightened, and ran to help Mrs. Zhao sit up. Mrs. Zhao's nose and forehead were bloody, and her mouth was open and she couldn't speak.
Xia Li sneered and led the bear out of the Zhao family. She saw that the old lady landed on her knee first, and if nothing happened, her kneecap must have cracked.
The old woman's crying came from behind, and the voice of the old man Zhao asking Zhao Liang to ask for a doctor.
Xia Li's family didn't care about the chaos next door, packed up the children, two dogs and one bear, and sent them back to the house to rest.
After listening to Xia Li's words, Xia Shi was still a little worried, and asked, "What if she breaks down and doesn't leave?" ”
Xia Li said with a smile, "Let Dangdang and Xiong like them greet her every day in the future, she doesn't want to be scared to death and leave quickly." ”
Thinking of that scene, Xia also laughed and put his heart at ease.
Early the next morning, Jin Ling came back with a meal and said, "General Zhao said that he will go to give a dowry this morning." She also said that the old lady's kneecap was broken, and she was lonely in bed, and she had nothing to do with her, and she lived in the north house of the West Wing. If you can't walk through the door, you can jump from the courtyard wall. ”
Xia Li and Xia both laughed, and Zhao Liang also thought of using this method to clean up the old woman. Although it is a little rough, it works quickly.
Xia Li beckoned Dangdang, Xiong Xiang, and Heizi over and whispered a few words, and Dangdang ran to the east courtyard wall next to the east chamber first.
Not far from the wall there is a wooden platform, which was specially prepared for them to go to the next door to hang out.
Dangdang, Kuroko, and Xiongxiang jumped on the wooden platform in turn, then jumped on the wall, and then jumped down again.
A moment later, from next door came the heart-rending howl of an old woman and the cry of a child.
The voice was so loud that several of the neighbors' children were scared and cried.
