Chapter 33: The Price of Seeking Medicine
Li Lincai has a generous heart, except for the first punch to Li Linjie, he has been keeping his hand since then, and he has not made any more efforts to hit people.
But he did farm work all day long, and he had a lot of strength, even if he only punched him, Li Linjie was dizzy, his head was swollen, and he had less strength to fight back.
Li Yao'er and Li Zijin looked crying and persuading each other, but in fact, neither of them was as honest as his father.
He cried and persuaded on both sides, and found an opportunity to help his father and mother, and coldly sent a few cold punches and legs to the third uncle and three aunts.
Li Da, as the eldest brother in the family, still has some prestige, under his mediation.
Li Er and Li San finally stopped, stood in the courtyard, and at a glance, Li Linjie was seriously injured.
His eyes were now blue, his mouth was swollen, and his appearance was funny and ugly.
Li Yao'er was not injured, she stood in the middle of everyone aggrievedly, twisted her head to look at the air on the side, and spoke to Li Linjie.
"It's not that I don't say it, I'm also the dream that Sister Mountain God gave me last night, just now I wanted to say it, as soon as you came in, you shouted and shouted to kill, I was scared and didn't dare to say it. ”
"I said it originally, my Tai Sui was given by Sister Mountain God, and the Tai Sui given by Sister Mountain God is of course different from the mortal world!"
"Last night, Sister Shanshen told me that Li Zirui and Li Zisheng's illness could not be cured in the world, and only she had a way to save them. ”
"But if you have a pig, a sheep and a duck at home, as well as five tributes, five glasses of wine, all the incense, money, paper and fire, go to the Nine Stone Pass of Phoenix Mountain, kowtow nine hundred times, and repent of the bad things you have done, she will give you the antidote. ”
After saying this, Li Yao'er suddenly remembered the behavior of the third uncle and three aunts, and immediately added.
"By the way, Sister Mountain God also said, the tribute, the three animals, and the money for the paper fire must be paid by yourself, otherwise your heart is not sincere, and after the sacrifice, the three animals must be distributed to the people in the village from house to house. ”
"It's not for nothing, it can help you eliminate karma!"
"Also, there is the fact that when you give tribute to the people in the village, you must not hide the reason, otherwise you will not be able to eliminate the karma. ”
She didn't want to fix the three uncles and three aunts so much, she just wanted them to repent of their mistakes, but the third uncle and three aunts were too much, so she temporarily changed the plan.
But the current plan is not as smooth as originally thought, and Li Yao'er wants to say it one by one, which sounds very unbelievable.
Li Lincai and his daughter-in-law listened to Li Yao'er's words, their faces turned white and green, green and black.
Li Lincai stared at Li Yao'er viciously, threatening in his mouth.
"Ridiculous, weird! It is impossible for a god to say such a thing!"
It was impossible for the fairy to say such a thing, but she had discussed it with the fairy sister, and the fairy sister allowed her to say so.
Li Yao'er raised her head and looked at Li Linjie unconvinced, not afraid of him at all.
"I didn't lie to you, that's what the fairy meant, if you don't believe you do what I say, if the fairy sister doesn't give you the antidote, you will go to the yamen to sue me." ”
"If you still don't believe it, I will give you my life as a guarantee, if the mountain god sister doesn't save the two of them, I will give your son his life. ”
Li Linjie saw that Li Yao'er looked at her without evasion, and it didn't look like he was lying, and he really didn't see anything abnormal about his son among so many Lang in Zhancheng.
Compared with getting sick, Li Zirui and Li Zisheng's current symptoms are indeed more like being entangled by something inexplicable.
He didn't really believe in ghosts and gods, after all, he had only heard of ghosts and gods, and had never seen them.
But now he is desperate, even if he thinks it is ridiculous, he can only give it a try.
But in his heart, a hundred, a thousand, ten thousand, he didn't want to do it.
He is not rich either.
His salary for three cents a month was really not much, and if it weren't for the fact that he still had a few acres of land at home, his wages would not be enough to support his family, let alone provide for his two sons to study.
The tributes of the three animals are a lot of money, and these few things alone are about five or six dollars of silver!
That's his income for two whole months, how can he give it up!
Moreover, he had to go from village to house to tell the villagers that he had done something wrong and offended the mountain god, and the mountain god asked him to distribute tribute.
Isn't this to rob him of face, so that he will not be able to gain a foothold in the village in the future!
Li Linjie values two things most in his life, one is silver, and the other is face.
At this moment, the silver and face are going to be lost, how can he be willing to respond casually.
Li Linjie was speechless with a cold face for a while, his daughter-in-law felt sorry for him, and knew that he was embarrassed, so she immediately gave up her face and begged Li Yao'er, who she was still talking badly to just now.
"Big girl, Lin Jie is your dear third uncle, since the gods can give you dreams, presumably what you say in front of the gods can have some weight. ”
"Your third uncle, his little money, it's not easy to support the family, this time I spent a lot of money in Zhancheng, and our family really has no money. ”
"Moreover, your third uncle is a scholar who your Li family has worked hard to support, how can he go and say things that offend the gods to those people, this is not his face alone, but the face of the entire Li family. ”
"Big girl, third aunt, I beg you, you help us talk to the gods, please can she replace the three animals with chickens, ducks and fish, and also, go and send tribute to the people in the village, can I go alone?"
The speed at which Li's third daughter-in-law changed her face made Li Yao'er smack her tongue secretly, and at the same time, she was a little admired in her heart.
This woman is calculating with outsiders, and she has no regrets about his own family.
Li's third daughter-in-law claimed to be a third aunt, playing the emotional card, where would Li Yao'er be moved by her three or two words, she shook her head like a rattle.
"No, no, Sister Fairy is a god, and it's not something I can see when I see her, and only I listen to her, how can I be qualified to discuss with her." ”
"Besides, the fairy sister is willing to save your son, it is already a big face, you don't want to be grateful and dare to bargain is not sincere at all, if the fairy sister regrets it, you just wait to collect your son's body. ”
From the beginning, Li Yao'er did not call the elders of Li San and his wife in his words, only a pronoun like you, and called the names of the two cousins.
During this period, Li Lincai and Li Shi did not stop exporting.
Li Linjie listened to the sound and knew that today the husband and wife had offended Li Lincai's family ruthlessly.
He turned his head to look at Li Lincai, and saw that Li Lincai, who had always been kind in the past, was now standing aside with a cold face, not wanting to say a word, and not even looking at him.
He secretly hated in his heart, feeling that Li Lincai's family would be watching him laugh, and he couldn't tell how to curse him in his heart.
Thinking like this, he grabbed his daughter-in-law's hand and said viciously.
"Who asked you to beg them, it's embarrassing! Isn't it just pigs, sheep and ducks, and it's not that you can't afford it, go, go home!"
Li San's daughter-in-law was urged by his father-in-law like this, knowing that today's things could only be like this, she couldn't help but have a cold face, straightened her waist and asked Li Lincai to walk outside the gate.
When she arrived at the door, she turned around and spat hard at the courtyard of Li Lincai's house before leaving.
