Li Xinyao's stepfather's family is a wealthy landlord, Li Xinyao's grandparents took a fancy to his money, and his stepfather took a fancy to Li Xinyao's mother's beauty, and the two families hit it off, so they married Li Xinyao's mother as a continuation.

In addition to Li Xinyao's mother, there are six concubines in the stepfather's family.

Li Xinyao, who has lived in the Li family, knows that none of the six concubines is a fuel-efficient lamp, and her mother is not as good as a little maid in the Li family!

The mother will not please the stepfather, and is always treated by the six-room concubine in front of the stepfather, and when the mother is older, her appearance is no longer as loving as when she was young, and the stepfather begins to ignore the mother.

When Li Xinyao grew up, this sister stretched out her evil claws to her, and her mother knew that she had no ability and couldn't protect her, so she wanted to send Li Xinyao out quickly, so she let her mother-in-law exchange her with a bag of food.

Li Xinyao and Yu Dalin did not go in, but wandered around, inquiring about the news of the eldest lady in the house.

Yu Daya is seven years old, and she has been away from this place for eight years.

It has long been a matter of fact, and the people I saw when I was a child can no longer be found.

finally inquired about an old grandmother who knew each other, and Li Xinyao went over to inquire with her about her mother's whereabouts.

The old lady's hair was gray, and her eyes couldn't see people clearly, but after Li Xinyao walked in, she still recognized this poor little girl at a glance.

The old lady sat in the shade of the big tree at the door, and walked over to Li Xinyao with a crutch step by step, "Yo! You're a brother, aren't you? How are you? ”

Li Xinyao hurriedly walked two steps over and carefully helped her, "Grandma Jin, you still know me." ”

Grandma Jin held Li Xinyao's hand affectionately, and said with a smile, "I know, how can I not know!" You haven't changed at all from when you were a child! ”

She looked at Yu Dalin and Yin Hongxuan, "This is your husband and child?" ”

Li Xinyao's face was embarrassed, "No, no, this is my eldest brother, this is the child of a relative's family, they are afraid that I will be bullied when I come back, so they deliberately followed." ”

Li Xinyao followed up, "Grandma Jin, let me inquire with you, do you have any news about my mother, is she okay?" ”

Grandma Jin hesitated, "Your mother...... She's ...... Alas. ”

Zhiwu still couldn't bear to say it for a long time, so he could only sigh heavily.

As soon as she saw Grandma Jin's attitude, Li Xinyao understood everything, her body shook uncontrollably, and she felt that the sun had become extremely hot today, "Grandma Jin, you tell me directly, what's wrong with my mother!" Is she ...... Is she already ......"

Grandma Jin sighed again, and her old voice was full of regret for the loss of a life, "Before the Chinese New Year, your mother didn't survive last winter, and I heard from their family that when your mother was sick, they didn't even invite you, and dragged your mother to death." ”

Grandma Jin looked around carefully, dragged Li Xinyao to a remote place, leaned over to her and whispered, "I also heard that your mother's death this time is not simple, it seems to have something to do with their little fourth, I also listened to my neighbor's cousin's daughter, her daughter is a subordinate in his family." ”

Li Xinyao had been mentally prepared, but now that she got an exact news, she still couldn't accept it in her heart, tears flowed all over her face, and she couldn't say a whole sentence with sobs.

Seeing this, Grandma Jin patted her back comfortingly, "Your mother is a hard-working woman, and you are also a hard-working child, but I think you are doing well now, burn more paper for your mother, and tell her about you, your mother is the only one who can't let go." ”

Li Xinyao nodded, tears falling down her chin vigorously, "I know, thank you Grandma Jin for telling me." ”

Yu Dalin looked at the courtyard of the Li family and asked Li Xinyao, "Shall we still go in?" ”

Li Xinyao shook her head, what else did she go in, her mother was gone, there was no point in them going in, even if her mother's death had something to do with the Li family, the evidence would have been destroyed for so long.

Yin Hongxuan walked over to comfort Li Xinyao, "Er Niangniang, don't be sad, I'll help you!" I'll help you find out the cause of your mother's death!" Let the guilty receive the punishment they deserve! ”

Li Xinyao smiled softly and touched Yin Hongxuan's head, "Thank you for your kindness, but you are still too young, you want to help Erniangniang, let's talk about it when you grow up." ”

Yin Hongxuan knew that no one in this family knew his identity except for Grandma Yu, and if he said this now, it would only be considered that a child was talking nonsense, and it didn't matter if others believed him or not, he would do this well.

Li Xinyao was about to turn around and leave, the door of the Li family creaked, and was pushed open from the inside, and a woman dressed in fancy clothes walked out with the help of the maid beside her, she saw Li Xinyao at a glance, the woman first looked at it carefully in disbelief, and then exaggerated shouted, "Are you ...... Are you Brother Li Lai? ”

This name sounds really harsh, Li Xinyao turned around slowly, since she started to study with her husband, she called back the name Li Xinyao taken by her biological father, at first glance when she heard the words "Li Laidi" in the mouths of others with a derogatory meaning, it really made her feel uncomfortable.

The woman who called her, she will never forget it in her life.

This woman is the favorite concubine of her stepfather Li Dafu, the third in line, once the top brand of a certain Qinglou, she was a performer but not a person, and she was caught by Li Dafu at a glance and bought at home.

Before she left home, this woman had been favored by Li Dafu alone, and looking at her current dress, it is estimated that this favor has not fallen.

"It turned out to be the third little lady, Xin Yao is polite."

Li Xinyao meant to be blessed, for fear that others would not see her perfunctory.

Honglian was not angry, she took the handkerchief and gently wiped the sweat on her forehead, and there was a coquettish energy between her gestures, "Xin Yao? It's still nice to hear, and the third little lady has to thank you for your name.

Don't say it, it's really easy for grandpa to change this name for you, naturally I really gave birth to a son for grandpa after you left! But your mother can't do it, she has been married for so many years, and she hasn't been able to give birth to a son and a half daughter to her grandfather, it is estimated that your name is not prosperous for her. ”

"Then congratulations to the third little lady, if it's okay, Xin Yao will leave first."

Li Xinyao didn't want to talk nonsense with her, and when she saw this woman, she remembered the suffering she and her mother suffered at her hands.

Honglian often humiliates their mother and daughter by relying on Li Dafu to support her, this person is extremely jealous and does not allow Li Dafu to like other women.

Li Dafu married his mother a widow into the door, I think I like it very much, Honglian has a sense of crisis, and naturally her mother has been against her again and again after entering the door.

's mother is just an ordinary girl, and her temperament is extraordinarily soft, and she can't cope with Honglian's methods at all, and the two of them are like angry bags in the Li family.

Honglian didn't want Li Xinyao to leave so quickly, so she stopped her and said to her with regret, "By the way, you don't know yet, right?" Your mother has passed away, or is it a funeral held for her by our sisters, and you come back and don't go to see your mother? ”
