Chapter 17: Cousin
Zhang Qiaoqiao seemed to have heard something funny, and laughed, "What is your identity?" Still want to eat at our house? I see you, you're dressed well, I'm afraid you can't even afford a meal, right? Are you embarrassed to accuse me of stealing? What else can I steal from you? ”
Li Xueyan didn't speak.
Zhang Qiaoqiao was so clever that this time he didn't say to Li Xueyan, but turned to face the neighbors, "Folks, such a person who can't even afford to eat actually keeps saying that I stole her things, everyone is commenting, is it me stealing her things, or is she stealing our things?" ”
Most of the people who watched the excitement were on the side of the Li family, otherwise, when Li Xueyan was beaten and kicked out of the house, whenever someone stood up to speak for her, she would not be so down.
At this time, after listening to Zhang Qiaoqiao's words, the voices of discussion and accusations almost drowned out Li Xueyan.
"I think this daughter-in-law of the Li family is reasonable, who didn't know that Li Xueyan was divorced by her husband's family when there were men outside? It is not surprising that such people, such people, will steal. ”
"You have a point. Even his own father couldn't stand it, and he made such a big fuss at that time, saying that he was going to drown her. ”
"Isn't that ......?"
Li Xueyan could hear their words, and Zhang Qiaoqiao could naturally hear them. Hearing this, she said triumphantly to Li Xueyan: "Did you hear that?" Who stole whom, and who the wicked sued first, now you know? ”
"Got it." Li Xueyan replied lightly, not taking Zhang Qiaoqiao in her eyes at all, and her eyes swept over Li Xuezhe who was standing behind Li Youzi.
Li Xuezhe is her cousin, that is, Zhang Qiaoqiao's husband.
It stands to reason that at this time, as an elder brother, no matter what, he should help her as a sister, instead of standing aside and silently letting his wife be a power here.
However, Li Xueyan knows that the Li family can't look at it according to common sense at all.
is also thanks to Li Xuezhe, who has been oppressed by his wife for many years and has developed a taciturn temperament outside, it is already good to just watch from the side and not speak, instead of dealing with her with Zhang Qiaoqiao.
Facing Li Xueyan's gaze, Li Xuezhe just deliberately avoided it and did not look at her.
Li Xuezhe didn't want to communicate with her, but Li Xueyan didn't think so.
"Cousin, it's early." She said to Li Xuezhe with a grin.
Li Xuezhe was suddenly named, and he didn't answer at the first time, but looked at Zhang Qiaoqiao first.
Seeing his reaction, Li Xueyan scolded him in her heart. As a big man, he is managed by his wife everywhere, is there any shame?
Zhang Qiaoqiao obviously didn't expect that Li Xueyan would skip her and go directly to talk to Li Xuezhe, but soon she smiled, "Li Xueyan, do you think he will help you if you talk to your brother now?" Let me tell you, don't say it's your brother, except for your unlucky mother, no one here treats you as the Li family! ”
Li Xueyan followed Zhang Qiaoqiao's words and glanced at her unlucky mother.
is indeed unlucky enough to marry a man like Li Youzi.
Except for saying something to her when she opened the door at the beginning, Zhou Xinghua has been standing behind him tremblingly since she was pushed away by Li Youzi, and now she has no other reaction except for a worried look at Li Xueyan.
She just has the heart to help Li Xueyan, and she is also a mud bodhisattva crossing the river.
Li Xueyan glanced at Zhang Qiaoqiao, looked at Li Xuezhe again, and suddenly said, "Cousin, do you think it was my sister-in-law who stole my things today, or did I steal my sister-in-law's things." ”
Li Xuezhe saw that the question was suddenly thrown over, and he didn't know how to react for a while.
Of course he knew who stole whom.
Zhang Qiaoqiao came back very late last night, and went out again in the middle of the night, bringing back a lot of zongzi and various ingredients. Then early this morning, Li Xueyan came to the door.
Isn't it obvious who stole whom?
But can he tell the truth?
"This ...... I, I also ......" Li Xuezhe was hesitant and didn't have an accurate word.
Zhang Qiaoqiao got angry when he saw him like this, and yelled at Li Xuezhe: "Do you still have to think about it, did you get up in the morning and drop your brain in the pit?" ”
The crowd of onlookers burst into laughter, they were already surprised by the scene of Li Xuezhe's wife and slave being disciplined, but they still found it interesting every time they saw it.
Li Xuezhe's face was red and white for a while, and he was yelled at by a woman in public, and no one could stand it.
Li Xuezhe was angry in his heart, but he didn't dare to say anything to Zhang Qiaoqiao, so he could only take revenge on Li Xueyan.
If Li Xueyan hadn't suddenly thrown this question to him, would he have been so embarrassed? Thinking of this, Li Xuezhe made up his mind and spoke, "I know, it's Li Xueyan who steals ......."
Before he finished speaking, he was interrupted by Li Xueyan, "Wait, cousin." Before I answer this, I want to ask you another question. ”
Li Xuezhe said impatiently: "Ask what? ”
