I am a late bloomer in the world of cultivating immortals

Chapter 42

Dai Xinghua agrees, this is the first sentence that Weitu said after Caixia broke into the living room of Li's house.

This sentence was very calm and short, but Li Yaozu and his wife heard a different meaning from it——Wei Tu was "talking back" to them.

Whether it is from the perspective of a servant who came out of Li's mansion, or as a guest of Li's mansion, Wei Tu's words are very rude...

"No, it should be said that he was rude when Caixia broke into the living room." Sitting on the chair, Li Yaozu's right hand hidden in his sleeve suddenly tightened, he was suppressing his dissatisfaction.

Originally, he thought that Weitu would propose and discuss with him to redeem Xinghua's body contract...then the two families reconciled, Li's house released people, and Wei's house took in people.

In this way, the Li family will gain huge fame from it, and when Li Xingye takes the imperial examination, he will also be given a high opinion by the examiners, thus winning the list.

At that time, the Li family will be promoted to the third consecutive year and become the premier "House of Benevolence" in Qingshan County.

But now, Wei Tu's words directly shattered his fantasy.

Weitu agreed to Caixia's proposal easily, instead of thinking about it from the Li family's point of view.

"How can he be so ungrateful." Li Yaozu gritted his teeth.

He can't just watch his investment in Weitu over the past six months go to waste...

How enthusiastic he was towards Weitu before, how angry he is now.

Although Li Tong didn't think as much as Li Yaozu did, after hearing Wei Tu's words, she instinctively felt that Wei Tu's words were a bit "inappropriate".

It's just that she didn't want to understand the origin of this "improperness" for the time being.

"Could it be that Mr. Li thinks that Wei can't make up for Xinghua?"

Seeing that Li Yaozu and his wife hadn't spoken for a long time, Wei Tu frowned slightly, and his words instantly became sharper and sharper.

At first, when he came to the inner house of Li's family today, he thought of Chunlan's words, and decided to suspend Xinghua's redemption for now, find another day, choose an opportunity, try not to provoke Li Yaozu and his wife today, and think of a kindness.

But the plans couldn't keep up with the changes.

period.

The Caixia incident happened.

This kind of drama of rich kids bullying the maid immediately made Weitu feel that Li's house is not a good place for Xinghua, and he needs to leave as soon as possible.

He didn't forget, on the day he met Li Xingye in February, after the banquet was over, Li Xingye kicked Cooper hard in the house.

Nowadays, after Li Xingye failed the ranking, he went "crazy". If he knew that he had won the ranking and held a grudge, it is hard to guarantee that he would not attack Xinghua.

Such things... are out of control!

Until then.

Even if he has fame and fame, it is difficult for him to intervene in Xinghua's matter.

After all, Xinghua's body contract is in Li's house, and Xinghua is a prostitute slave belonging to Li's house.

Therefore, Caixia's opening just now really solved Weitu's urgent need.

After thinking about it, Wei Tu decided to go with the flow and retrieve Xinghua's contract of selling herself from Li Zhai without further delay.

And what happened today——

Wei Tu expected that the Li family would not publicize the incident afterwards, saying that he "rebelled against the master" because Caixia was involved in this matter.

Propagating this matter is a family scandal for the Li family.

The time has come.

Wei Tu would not hesitate further.

"When...of course not..." Li Yaozu sighed secretly and shook his head.

Wei Tu is Xinghua's husband, so of course he has the right to decide whether to redeem Xinghua's body contract.

No matter how much he argues, it won't help. On the contrary, he will tear himself apart with Weitu.

He still didn't want the Li family to form an enmity with Weitu.

However, as soon as Li Yaozu's words fell, Li Xingye stood up at the side. He walked a few steps back and forth in the hall, looked at Caixia and Weitu in front of him, and said, "Weitu, are you really going to oppose our Li family because of this girl?"

"In the 16th year of Qing'an, there was a severe drought in Qingfeng Mansion, and there was no harvest. The Li family took you in and gave you the grace of life. Don't you want to repay it?"

"Last year, when you redeemed your life contract, my father felt sorry for you, so he gave up the Li family's favor and wrote a recommendation letter to Shan Wuju..."

"This kind of kindness is for you to use against my parents today?"

Li Xingye laughed sarcastically and said.

Just now, he had already planned to let Caixia go and Xinghua redeem herself to leave, but he didn't expect that Weitu would speak so recklessly, insulting and persecuting his parents so much.

He finally got impatient.

After throwing out a few words, Li Xingye suddenly felt refreshed, as if all the resentment he had after failing the ranking had been confided and poured out.

The voice fell.

The atmosphere in the hall suddenly became cold and silent.

Li Yaozu and his wife fell silent.

Caixia was also shocked.

The three looked at Weitu in front of them. They didn't know how Weitu would react to this truly humiliating word.

but--

Wei Tu was very calm, as if he had expected Li Xingye to say such a thing.

"Wei has never forgotten the kindness of the Li family."

"If there is a chance, Wei will repay you..."

Wei Tu looked at Li Xingye and answered with a slightly cold tone.

After finishing speaking, Wei Tu looked at Li Yaozu and his wife again, waiting for their response to Xinghua's redemption.

"Xingye failed the rankings. Recently, I have been depressed, and some words are offensive. I hope Brother Wei will not be blamed."

Li Tongshi apologized.

Then, she pushed Li Yaozu who was sitting beside her, and said, "Master, go get Xinghua's body deed. Today, both of them in the house have redeemed their bodies. It's a happy event. I'm also happy for them."

"Okay, okay..." Seeing that there was a step down, Li Yaozu didn't hesitate, turned around and went to the inner hall to get Xinghua's body deed.

"Xinghua's redemption cost less than ten taels of silver, seven taels of silver is enough."

Li Tong took out three liang of money from the purse and put it on the table next to him.

After finishing all this, she tightly pursed her mouth like Caixia did before, leaned back on the straight-backed chair, stared at the beams and pillars in the hall, and was dazed for a while.

Xinghua's body deed is in hand.

Wei Tu cupped his hands, thanked Li Yaozu and his wife, and said: "Grandma, I don't think today is suitable for staying overnight. If I have time someday, I will come to Li's house with Xinghua to see you..."

"That's good." Hearing this, Li Tongshi habitually wore a smile on his face, and nodded back.

aside.

Seeing this scene, Li Xingye was a little taken aback. He didn't expect Weitu's energy-raising skills to be so good, and his parents' handling also deviated from his imagination.

It's just that after scolding, he also felt that what he said just now was inappropriate, and his head was overwhelmed with anger, so he pretended to be dead and waited for it to end soon.

soon.

Weitu and Caixia left the living room.

Chunlan, who was waiting outside the door, watched the two of them leave, then walked in with trembling hands, holding the meal from homeowner Li's house tonight.

"Chunlan, swallow what you read just now, and don't tell it outside, or the family law will serve you." Li Tong's smiles were restrained one by one, his face was tense, and he scolded.

"The servant girl understands."

Chunlan nodded like a chicken pecking at rice, and put the food in her hands on the Eight Immortals table.

"It's just that the servant girl has something to say and doesn't know whether to say it or not..." Chunlan hesitated for a while, looked at Li Tongshi, and said in a low voice.

"What?"

Li Tong's expression is not very good-looking, the anger she has suffered today is greater than the anger she has suffered in the past 20 years of marrying into Li's house.

"Brother Wei..."

"He is well-known in the Taoist examination this year and won the list. He is... a second-class martial artist."

Chunlan said hastily.
