Liangyue Farm Gate

Chapter 464 Cold War
The three brothers of the Li family couldn't sleep well that night.

Seeing that Li Yueshi was fast asleep and breathing steadily, Li Houzhong's family went back.Uncle Li Hou lived in Li Houbo's side, and the two brothers walked past each other and looked at each other.

Li Houbo was tossing and turning on the bed, feeling very uncomfortable, he pulled Mrs Zhu beside him and said, "Hey, you said that the gold caught by mother is more in my hand than in third brother's hand." more?"

Mrs. Zhu didn't think about it at the moment, but what she thought about was that if the old lady let go like this, Tie Wazi would have to keep her filial piety, and the marriage would have to be delayed for three years, but how could the delay be afforded!
Hearing Li Houbo's question about Qian, Mrs. Zhu was immediately upset: "Qian Qianqian, that's all you think about! You don't care about your youngest's marriage?"

Li Houbo was inexplicably lectured, and immediately became unhappy: "Is what I'm asking you serious? What are you yelling at?"

Mrs. Zhu didn't want to pay attention to him, she turned her body sideways and closed her eyes to sleep.

In the next room, Uncle Li Hou was also wondering whether the gold in his elder brother's hand was more than his own.

Sitting cross-legged on the bed, Jin tried to ask Uncle Li Hou to talk to him several times so that she could figure out how much the gold was worth, but Uncle Li slapped his hands away unceremoniously.At any rate, he was at his eldest brother's house, Uncle Li Hou couldn't sleep with Xiao Qiu, and he was really tired of being next to Jin, he didn't say a word when he entered the room, naturally he became even more impatient with Jin's provoking him.

The situation at Li Houzhong's house was the same, the couple didn't fall asleep very late.Li Houzhong sniffed his nose twice from time to time, and Liu couldn't bear it after hearing too much, so he stretched out his leg and kicked him, and said, "Why don't you? Your mother has neglected you all these years, and you are so touched that you got a big stone from her." ? Is there anything promising!"

Li Houzhong immediately replied: "Then there are only stones, don't you also have gold and gold bracelets? Besides, the stones were held in my father's arms when he died, and my mother never lost them. gave me..."

"Come on, go ahead." Mrs. Liu snorted, "How much do you think your mother treasures that stone? Why did it lie under the bed for so many years? When I moved it up, I didn't see a thick layer of dust on it. Is it? When your eldest brother and the others are cleaning it, they may think that it is used to press the bottom of the bed to suppress evil spirits! You are still a treasure."

Mrs. Liu hummed twice and turned over: "What do you want if you don't sleep at night? Go to sleep now!"

Maybe there will be a funeral when you wake up tomorrow morning-didn't you see your sister-in-law set up all the candlesticks and incense tables?
Mrs. Liu closed her eyes and stopped talking to Li Houzhong, but Li Houzhong got up again in the middle of the night, took advantage of the night to scoop up water, and carefully washed the stone aside——when he came back, Li Houzhong held the stone and cherished it brought back from the land.

The rooster crowed, and Li Houzhong got up early again, urging Mrs. Liu to prepare the meal. After eating, he rushed to see Mrs. Li Yue.

Liu Shi felt impatient in her heart, but she didn't give Li Houzhong a bad look.

After Li Houzhong left in a hurry, Mrs. Liu said to Li Xin: "By the way, tomorrow you and your mother are going to visit relatives."

Li Xin pointed at himself, a little surprised: "Abstaining relatives?"

"Yes." Mrs. Liu sat down, greeted Li Ming for dinner, said that he was tired after rushing back in the middle of the night last night, and got up early again this morning. He was afraid that he would not be able to bear it when he was growing up, so he raised his head and said to Li Xin: "Forgot? Your fourth uncle will marry your fourth aunt tomorrow."

"But……"

Li Xin has not forgotten this time, but at this pass, can Mrs. Liu leave?

As if knowing what Li Xin said, Mrs. Liu said: "What's the matter, the mother-in-law's family is human, but the mother's family is not human? I can't go even if my brother gets married?" Mrs. Liu said angrily: "Last night your father It made me so angry that he still didn't stop this morning. To put it bluntly, your grandma is not dead yet!"

It's really not kind to say this.

But Li Xin also understands that after being treated coldly and unfairly by her grandma for so many years, if her mother still feels sad about her dying, that is not in line with her mother's personality.

Li Xin smiled, patted Li Ming's shoulder and said, "Mother, Ming'er is still here, you're teaching your own son badly by saying this, and be careful that Ming'er won't be filial to you when she comes back after marrying a daughter-in-law."

Li Ming was choked immediately, and raised his head to look at Li Xin helplessly: "Sister, am I that kind of person?"

"That's right!" Mrs. Liu slapped Li Xin: "Your third brother didn't plant your father, and fortunately he didn't plant your father. Besides, mother is not like your grandma. Do you think mother treats your sister-in-law and second sibling well? Then All are treated equally!"

Mrs. Liu puffed her chest out, and snorted: "Xin'er, help your mother to pick out the presents that you want to give tomorrow, and then tell your mother how much money you can give..."

Li Ming blinked at Li Xin, Li Xin gave him a funny look, and then followed Liu's steps to follow her.

Guan Wen helped Li Erlang to irrigate the crops in the field, and Li Dalang also had some village affairs to sort out.Mrs. Zhang has always been a busy person, Mrs. Jiang took care of Jiu'er, Yang'er and Shanzi went crazy again, and today they said they were going to pick mulberries to eat, but Xiaodou was the only one left sitting quietly. Seeing Mrs. Zhang busy in front of the stove, she felt tired after sitting for a while, and then went out for a walk, just in time to be stopped by Mrs. Liu.

"Now that your grandma is like that, I can't ask your elder brother and the others to come with me." Mrs. Liu hugged Xiaodou and said to Li Xin: "You are a girl, so it's okay. If your elder brother and the others go, your uncle will Let’s talk nonsense.”

"Mom." Li Xin called her helplessly.

"That's all right, all right, mother will just chatter with you for nothing." Mrs. Liu waved her hand, not very happy: "Original mother is telling the truth."

Li Xin wiped the sweat off Xiaodou's face, and said, "Elder brother and the others won't go, and sister-in-law and second siblings won't be able to leave either. I'll go with you tomorrow, mother?"

"Well, let's go."

Mrs. Liu nodded: "If you let him stay here as the head of the family, it means that you will become a man anyway. Let Shanzi and Yanger let them play here. They are very naughty. We're going to cause trouble."

As she said that, Mrs. Liu looked at Xiaodou: "Xiaodou and grandma go visit relatives, okay? Let's see the bride?"

Xiaodou squinted his eyes, the sun was shining brightly, his little face was bright, and he nodded slightly.

"Xiaodou is a good boy." Mrs. Liu "baji" kissed Xiaodou on the cheek, and Li Xin said with a smile: "Mother now has a grandson and a granddaughter."

"The grandson and granddaughter are missing." Mrs. Liu looked at Li Xin, and Li Xin stroked her forehead: "Mother, you are here again. Isn't Yang'er your grandson?"

"Anyway, adopted ones are not as good as biological ones..."

Mrs. Liu muttered, waved her hands and said, "Oh, forget it, I won't tell you this anymore."

Mrs. Liu stopped this topic, and discussed with Li Xin what gifts to bring tomorrow, how much congratulatory money to give, and so on.

Li Houzhong came back at noon, just in time for Mrs. Liu to set out a meal for him to eat.Seeing Li Houzhong and Mrs. Liu jokingly said, "Hey, Second Master Li is back? Why didn't your elder brother invite you for lunch?"

Li Houzhong's face was not very good-looking, and he glared at Liu Shi immediately: "You are ashamed to say that the third brother and her two daughters-in-law are helping to take care of the mother at the moment, so you just stay at home and don't go there much. "

Mrs. Liu was laughing at first, but she watched her brother Minger continue. This is a happy event. I chatted with Li Xin all morning. She was in a good mood. Li Houzhong's words just made her happy No more, immediately Liu threw the tablecloth on the ground with a "slap", stared at Li Houzhong with bulging eyes, "What you said just now meant that you blamed me for not serving your mother, right?"

"Mother, don't say a few words..."

Seeing that Mrs. Liu's violent temper was about to come up, Li Xin quickly grabbed Mrs. Liu, but Mrs. Liu also pushed her away: "Don't stop me!"

Guan Wen supported Li Xin, and Li Xin sighed helplessly.

Even Li Xin's words didn't work, and Mrs. Zhang didn't dare to stroke her mother-in-law's beard. She pulled Li Dalang's blouse and asked him what to do.

Mrs. Liu pointed to Li Houzhong and said, "Don't tell me the two of you. I'm not afraid to tell you that there is no way for me to take care of her! Also! If you, Li Er Er, want to show some face , when your mother dies, I want my daughter-in-law to kowtow to her, kneeling and kneeling, show me some respect for your attitude! When my mother was bullied by your mother, you pretended to be a grandson Hiding and not opening your mouth, you still want to scold my mother now? You are in a hurry, your mother will not show her face during the funeral! If you don’t believe me, just try it!”

Li Houzhong was so angry at Liu's words, he closed the door and lived at home, his wife is easy to talk to, but when it comes to his parents and brothers, his mother-in-law is simply unreasonable.

But the key is that what she said was not a lie, he is not Liu Shi, I don't know what kind of suffering Liu Shi suffered at that time...

Li Ming gently hugged Liu Shi's shoulders. Now he is 13 years old, but his height is not much different from Liu Shi's.

"Mother, don't say these things, you will feel uncomfortable if you say it, and Dad will also feel uncomfortable..."

Liu Shi turned her face away, she looked like she was crying.

Li Xin tugged Guan Wen lightly, and said in a low voice, "Sit down, please persuade me." Guan Wen nodded, and went with Li Dalang to help Li Houzhong sit on the dining table.

Li Dalang said: "Father, mother, I haven't eaten yet. I am so angry because I want to save food? If I am full, I will not be able to eat."

Mrs. Zhang said: "That's not going to work. It's a hot day, and things will go bad after a long time. Hurry up and eat."

Mrs. Zhang and Li Xin supported Mrs. Liu to sit down, and the women sat at the same table, so there was no need to worry about another conflict between Mrs. Li Houzhong and Mrs. Liu.

Over there, Li Houzhong didn't speak any more, and Mrs. Liu also ate without saying a word. After eating, Mrs. Liu went out without even looking at Li Houzhong.
