After all, Li Shu is the head of a village, no matter how small this official position is, he has to act in accordance with the law and discipline, and he has nothing to do with Sun Xiu, Widow Wang and others, in order to restore the official authority lost due to Li Xin's troubles some time ago, he did not have any mercy in his judgment this time.

Nian Zaiwang's widow was a tainted witness, so she was just expelled from Bishui Village, and Sun Xiu was much more miserable, Wang Wu was ordered by Li Shu to divorce his wife, Sun Xiu was going to be driven back to his parents' house, the matter is so big, I am afraid that no one in Shili Eight Villages will dare to go to Sun's house to propose marriage.

Sun Xiu collapsed weakly on the ground, looking at the ground with empty eyes, and his face was pale as if he would faint at any time.

How could it be like this when it was a foolproof plan?

Wang Wu wanted to step forward and say something, but his mother grabbed his ears, and Aunt Wang took Wang Wu aside to teach him a lesson for a while, and Wang Wu completely gave up his heart to argue for Sun Xiu.

"Su Xiaoman, Zhang Xiuqin, are you still satisfied with this result?" Li Shu asked fakely.

"Village Chief, actually, I think-" Zhang Xiuqin looked dissatisfied, and wanted to say something.

But Su Xiaoman directly grabbed the conversation: "Thank you, village chief, please take a trip for the New Year, it's good to solve it this way." ”

Li Shu nodded with satisfaction and left proudly.

Li Shuxiang is conceited, coupled with the support of the county, if they dare to say that Li Shu's judgment is unfair at this time, then I am afraid that they will be put in small shoes in the future.

It is something that the whole village knows that he and Li Xin do not deal with, but Xiaoman must not let Li Shu also hold a grudge against himself because of this, otherwise Su Qi will also be implicated!

Seeing Li Shu leave, Zhang Xiuqin, who originally wanted to say something, had to shut up, she glared at Xiao Man dissatisfiedly, and muttered to herself: "What is good, it's not that you vomited so much blood." ”

"That's it, mother, she's a sycophant!" Su Xiaoling on the side echoed, and deliberately raised her voice, as if she was afraid that Xiaoman would not hear it.

Xiaoman didn't care much about supporting Su Qi, anyway, she didn't think about getting along with this stepmother and sister, today's matter, if it weren't for Zhang Xiuqin's big loss, she laughed at herself It was too late, how could she help herself teach the widow Wang a lesson?

Therefore, she just turned back to Lu Li and said, "Let's go home." ”

As a result, Zhang Xiuqin felt that she had lost face, so she had to pretend to talk to Aunt Wang and stay, and did not go back with Su Xiaoman.

And when Su Xiaoman and his party returned to Su's house, Su Qi sighed before he could speak, looking at his limping appearance, as well as the silver hair blown by the cold wind, Su Xiaoman's heart was sour.

"Dad, what's the sigh of goodness, it's not good for the New Year." Xiaoman lowered her head, so as not to let her father see her red circles, she helped Su Qi lay out the quilt, and partnered with Lu Li to help Su Qi get on the kang.

Hearing her say this, Su Qi hurriedly laughed twice, "I'm just tired of walking, just take a breath, I didn't sigh." ”

Su Xiaoman glanced at him with disgust, and then brought the melons and fruits on the table to Su Qi's hand, "Well, let's eat something, you haven't been able to eat well at noon." ”

"Hey, what doesn't affect you, you're my girl, it's uncomfortable to look at you, and I'm also panicked in my heart." Su Qi said with emotion.

She lost her mother at a young age, Su Qi couldn't be busy alone, so she married another one, but she didn't think that Zhang Xiuqin would ask Xiao Man for warmth in the open, and secretly gave all the good things to Su Xiaoling.

Later, Zhang Xiuqin didn't even bother to pretend.

People are getting old, coupled with today's events, Su Qi feels more and more guilty in his heart, he always feels sorry for Xiaoman, and even more sorry for Xiaoman's mother.

"Dad, for the New Year, I just said don't let you sigh, you're crying again, really." Xiao Man pretended to complain angrily, and handed over the handkerchief as he spoke, so that Su Qi could wipe away his tears.

Su Qi finally sighed, "I know, don't talk about this." You and Lu Li are tired too, right? Hurry home, or it will be difficult to walk when it gets dark. ”

As he spoke, Su Qi remembered something again, he stood up and pointed to the firewood room, "There is still a lot of food left at noon, you can bring it back and order it, and don't do it at night." ”

"They have so many good things in their own house, and it's rare for us to have these leftovers?" As the irony of yin and yang sounded, Zhang Xiuqin and Su Xiaoling opened the curtain and walked in.

Su Qi frowned, "What are you talking about, if it weren't for Xiao Man seeing that something was wrong, you wouldn't even know who your enemy was, and you would say something unpleasant about the New Year!" ”

"I'm not telling the truth!" Zhang Xiuqin was not convinced, and became more and more open-mouthed: "People are all in the house, what do you want, and you can still take a fancy to these rotten things of ours?" It's just that you, this old thing, are still being sent to people, and I don't know what people dislike behind their backs. ”

Xiaoman can also see clearly, if Zhang Xiuqin doesn't want to scold herself for a day, she will definitely feel uncomfortable.

Anyway, she made up her mind not to speak, she didn't want to quarrel with Zhang Xiuqin on this festive day, otherwise she would let others watch the excitement.

But Lu Li suddenly stood up and said respectfully: "Father-in-law, the things you sent last time were very good, and Xiaoman and I both liked them very much." In the future, if we have something good to get our hands on, we will naturally use it to honor you. ”

When Zhang Xiuqin heard this, she blushed with anger and her neck was thick, and just as she was turning her eyes to refute, Lu Li took another step forward and took out a small silver ingot from her arms.

Her eyes were straight, and she forgot what to say for a moment.

Su Xiaoling was also stunned, didn't her mother say that Orion didn't have so much money? But this Lu Li shot a few taels of silver ingots, so generous! He must still have a lot of money hidden in his house, right?!

I only heard Lu Li say: "This is the money I got from selling the wolf skin last time, half of it was bought for Xiaoman, and the rest are all filial to you." ”

The man specially bit the word "you" very hard, as if he was deliberately warning Zhang Xiuqin that this money is not for you.

Zhang Xiuqin held her breath and didn't dare to attack, originally she wanted to take advantage of Su Xiaoman and the others to lose her temper with Su Qi, but now that Su Qi was holding the silver in her hand, she didn't dare to offend, for fear that Su Qi would be angry and cut off her expenses.

Looking at Zhang Xiuqin's appearance, Xiao Man couldn't help but purse his lips and chuckled, Lu Li is really, he usually didn't see him deliberately targeting Zhang Xiuqin, but today it seems that he deliberately went against her, stimulating her with every word.

On the way home, Xiao Man asked about it, and Lu Li smiled: "Whoever makes her not talk well, she should be angry." ”

With the few taels of silver given by Lu Li to Su Qi, Zhang Xiuqin didn't dare to make trouble for a long time, this year passed quickly, and it was the Lantern Festival in a blink of an eye.

Different from the lively atmosphere in the village, the Li family was unusually deserted, Li Xin sat alone at the door of the house, looking at the dark sky and sighing.

Li Shu, who had just returned from Chen Suzhen's house, saw this scene as soon as he entered the door, and he hurriedly persuaded: "Xinxin, why are you sitting outside and not afraid of catching a cold?" Get inside the house! ”

Li Xin didn't care about Li Shu's persuasion, she got up and walked to Li Shu, "Dad, that old woman won't really be bad, right?" ”

Chen Suzhen was infected with a cold a few years ago, but Liu Zhicheng couldn't visit her because he couldn't move around at will, and Li Xin hated this mother-in-law, so she kept delaying.

But I don't want to, this Chen Suzhen can't support it just after the New Year, if it weren't for the Chen family's neighbors who found out about the abnormality, no one would know that Chen Suzhen died at home.

Li Shu shook his head and sighed: "More air in and less air out, that is, these two days, prepare the coffin in advance." ”

As soon as the words fell, there was a loud bang in the room, and there was a "bang", as if a heavy object had fallen to the ground.

Li Xin secretly screamed that it was not good, and hurriedly rushed into the house, and happened to see Liu Zhicheng, who was only wearing a middle coat, crawling around on the ground, her eyes were red, and she hurriedly stepped forward to help the man up.

"If you want to drink water or eat, why don't you wait for me to enter the house and say, what can you do!" Li Xin complained on her lips, but there was no ambiguity in her hands, pouring water and serving food, like a girl who served people.

Liu Zhicheng was still thinking about what Li Shufang had just said, he was bored in his heart, and he couldn't listen to Li Xin's nagging at all.

Therefore, as soon as Li Xin brought the rice to Liu Zhicheng's hand, the plate and bowl were waved to the ground by Liu Zhicheng with one hand, and the thunderbolt bar was shattered.

Li Xin stood in place in a daze, at a loss.

"Liu Zhicheng! Don't give me ignorance! Li Shu stared at him and roared: "Our family is so thoughtful to serve you, you still throw your face, do you really think you are the young master of a big family?!" ”

Liu Zhicheng raised his head with a sneer, his messy hair covered most of his appearance, and the young man who was originally Zhou Zheng was now terrifyingly thin, and the flesh on his cheeks was all sunken, like a talking skeleton.

He is not afraid of Li Shu, anyway, now his mother is about to die, Liu Zhicheng is not afraid, he propped up the edge of the bed, "Li Shu, say that others should pee on yourself before taking care of yourself, and see what kind of virtue you are!" A little village chief yells at others all day long, I don't know if I think you're the emperor here! ”

"You! You ......." Li Shu was so angry that he couldn't speak, since he took office, no one dared to speak to him like this.

Seeing this, Li Xin finally came back to her senses, she hurriedly stepped forward to support Liu Zhicheng, and whispered: "Brother Zhicheng, don't say it, your mother's illness is not my father's fault, don't be angry with him!" ”

Immediately, she turned around and persuaded Li Shu: "Dad, Brother Zhicheng is just sad for a while, don't worry about him, you better go back to the house and sleep." ”

"Li Xin!" Li Shu rarely called her full name, and raised her voice: "Don't protect this little cub all day long, it's obviously a man who is upside down and puts on his face all day long, look at me today and let him know what it means to be respectful and humble!" ”

After speaking, Li Shu turned around and looked for weapons in the house, intending to teach Liu Zhicheng a hard lesson.
