Li Xiangyu hugged the salt jar, and glanced at Xiao Wu, "You are so big, the taste is heavy, what good is eating too much salt?"
"My sister cooks delicious dishes every time." Xiao Wu replied oily.
"Sister? She is your daughter-in-law." Li Xiangyu grasped the word keenly, then glared at Li Man, and asked, "Is this how you usually teach him to call you?"
"Xiao Wu is still a child." Saying this in front of him, Li Man felt that she was a bit too much, let alone just a title.
"What's wrong with the child?" Li Xiangyu stared at her contemptuously, "No matter how young he is, he is your husband-in-law. Don't forget, you were bought by my Li family." She said the last sentence very seriously, lest Li Man Guo who doesn't know his identity.
Naturally, Li Man was also annoyed by her last words, "If you think you lost money, you can ask them to send me back."
After saying a word, Li Man put down the spatula, and said, "Are you frying this dish or am I? If you fry it, you can do it yourself. If I fry it, please put down the salt jar. How much salt should be put? I know it."
Li Xiangyu was stunned by her attitude. She thought she was a soft persimmon because of her slender appearance, but she didn't expect to dare to talk back to her.
"You bitch, are you teaching me a lesson?" The salt jar hit Li Man's feet with a bang, and in a blink of an eye, she sat on the ground and cried, "Da Lang, hurry up!" Come and see, your daughter-in-law is going against the sky, she is trying to make me stronger."
Li Man was completely stunned. Is this the so-called recklessness
Li Mo and Li Xiangcao ran over right behind.
"Sister, what's the matter with you? Get up and talk about something." Even if Li Xiangcao didn't ask, she guessed what happened, and hurried over to help her sister get up.
But Li Xiangyu pushed her away, grabbed Li Mo's trouser leg, pointed at Li Man, and shouted, "Da Lang, this dead woman dares to teach me a lesson, beat her, slap her, go quickly—"
Li Man stared at Li Mo with big innocent eyes, only to see that his face was ashen, and his heart shrank slightly. This ancient person is stupid and filial, and his parents are not around. The eldest aunt is the most respected elder in his family. Will he beat himself
However, she didn't pick the matter herself, and she didn't do anything.
Unconsciously, she raised her head and stared at Li Mo stubbornly.
Li Mo lowered his head, saw the salt on her shoe, frowned slightly, and said to Li Xiangyu, "Auntie, get up, the ground is cold."
Li Xiangcao was also pulling hard, but her sister was so strong that she couldn't pull it alone, "Sister, what are you doing? Get up quickly, don't scare Xiao Wu.".
Seeing that Li Mo didn't respond, Li Xiangyu slapped Li Mo's legs hard twice, "Bastard, didn't you listen to what Elder Sister said? Didn't you hear me when I asked you to slap that woman on the mouth?"
With a sullen face, Li Mo also bent down to help Li Xiangyu, "Auntie, let's talk about something."
"I'm sorry, if you don't teach this woman a lesson today, I won't be sorry." Li Xiangyu broke away from the hands of her sister and eldest nephew, patted her thighs with both hands and howled dryly, "I don't care about this old face. Forget it, I want to be strong for the rest of my life, and I was slapped by this girl today. Dalang, I just want to put less salt, and she just teased me with words."
Outside the door, He Hua heard the howling, and rushed in with a half-drawn pig's head in her hand, "Oh, aunt, what's wrong with you? Who bullied you?" As she spoke, her eyes were already staring at Li Man.
Li Xiangcao glanced at her, "It's none of your business, go out and wash your pig's head."
"I don't." He Hua threw the pig's head onto the pot, rolled up her sleeves and rushed towards Li Man, "Is that you? What did you do to my aunt? Ah—"
As soon as her hand was about to touch Li Man, Li Mo stopped her, twisted hard, pushed again, and hit the pot.
Lotus let out an exaggerated scream of 'Ouch'.
"Shut up." Li Mo stopped coldly, walked up to Li Man, gave her an apologetic look, then squatted down, and gently wiped off the salt on her shoe.
"Are you OK?"
Li Man shook her head in a daze, a little overwhelmed by his gentle and heart-warming actions.
The same goes for everyone else.
"Da Lang, what are you doing?" Li Xiangyu stared wide-eyed, and could hardly believe her own eyes. This eldest nephew has always listened to her own words the most, and is filial to herself. Now she actually helps outsiders. This is not a slap in the face
Her eyes were really red, "Dalang, you make me so sad. Your mother-in-law bullied me. I didn't expect you to treat me like this. You have no conscience. Don't think about it. Who helped you all these years and made you these things Brothers one by one pulling the older ones? Ah? It’s your aunt, if it weren’t for your aunt, your family would have been broken up long ago. Okay, now that you are all grown up and your wings are hardened, you will dislike me. Right? Okay, I'll go, Lotus, let's go, let's go now, I have the right to raise a white-eyed wolf."
"Guy, I've sprained my waist and I can't walk." He Hua leaned against the pot and rubbed her waist, and glanced at Li Mo reluctantly.
Li Xiangyu glared at her fiercely, "You can't find a good home for a worthless thing on your terms? You can't leave, I'll leave alone, and you all stay."
tang
With that said, she walked out angrily.
Li Mo hurriedly followed, "Auntie, what are you trying to do? You know I don't mean that."
"Then what do you mean?" Li Xiangyu blocked the door, poked his forehead with his finger, and asked, "Your mother-in-law has ridden on my head to shit, you don't care, if you have a daughter-in-law, you don't even want your aunt , your conscience was eaten by dogs?"
"Auntie, you may have misunderstood, Man'er is not that kind of person." Li Mo explained helplessly.
Li Xiangyu spit on his face, "Isn't she that kind of person? I am that kind of person, am I the kind of messy person?"
Is not it? Li Man couldn't see it from the sidelines, and secretly gave Xiao Wu a wink.
Xiao Wu understood, rushed over and hugged Li Xiangyu's waist, and cried, "Auntie, stop scolding brother, it's all Xiao Wu's fault, Xiao Wu shouldn't put more salt, woo woo..."
"Xiao Wu, good boy, it's none of your business, don't cry." Li Xiangyu's heart softened when she saw Xiao Wu tearing up. She has never seen her mother's face, and she really loves this poor child.
Xiao Wu hugged her even tighter, choked up and said, "Auntie, then don't go, don't scold elder brother, don't let elder brother beat sister, okay?"
There was still anger on Li Xiangyu's face, and she sighed helplessly, "You child doesn't understand, this new wife, if you don't set the rules for her, it won't be the same in the future." Looking at Li Mo, "Hmph, you were as virtuous as your father back then, and loved your wife, right? If it hurts so much, you will dare to ride on your neck and shit, do you know that?"
Seeing that Li Xiangyu was really in tears, Li Mo knew that she was sad about her father again, and she felt uncomfortable, so she persuaded, "Auntie, don't think about the past, Man'er is a good woman—"
"Okay, I can't look at you?" Li Xiangyu glared at him, then glared at Li Man, and snorted coldly, "I am a simple and honest man, so I don't want to beat you, but don't be complacent, you are just my Li Jiahua If you buy it with silver, it will be good in the future, but if it’s not good, you can beat it up and sell it to someone else, so as to save yourself the trouble.”
"Auntie." Li Mo hurriedly stopped drinking, and turned to see Li Man's face flushed with tears in her eyes.
"Xiao Wu, go back to the house with Auntie and have a rest."
"Well," Xiao Wu hurriedly grabbed Li Xiangyu's hand and dragged it out.
Li Xiangcao also pushed behind.
Seeing that Li Man's expression was not good, Li Xiangyu felt much happier, she smiled coldly, and walked out.
Seeing that everyone was leaving, Lotus looked at Li Mo eagerly, "Brother Mo—"
"Get out." Li Mo ordered in a cold voice without even looking at it.
The heart of the lotus trembled, and she threw off her legs and hurriedly ran outside.
Li Man took a deep breath, her face was gloomy, and she also went out.
"Man'er." Li Mo grabbed her arm, "Just now, what Auntie said was a bit serious, so don't take it to heart."
Li Man shook off his hand and looked at him coldly, "Is it so important that I take care of you? I was just bought by you. If you think I'm not feeling well someday, beat me up and beat me up again." If you sell it, you can get it, so it won’t be an eyesore.”
After speaking, turn around and leave.
"Man'er." Li Mo knew that she was really annoyed, and panicked, he reached out and hugged her from behind.
Li Man froze, but she didn't struggle, she just said coldly, "Let me go."
"Man'er, don't be angry, I apologize to you on behalf of my aunt." Li Mo begged in her ear, not only did not let go, but hugged her even tighter, as if she was afraid that she would run away without a trace.
Li Man held back her grievances, and said coldly, "No need, I'm a bought woman, I can't bear it."
Li Mo's heart trembled slightly, "Don't say that, we have never thought about you like this."
"But you really bought me, didn't you?" When she thought of this, she felt all kinds of bad feelings in her heart, pain and congestion, as if her chest was full of broken stones.
"Don't mention this, okay?" Li Mo turned her around, stared at her red eyes, and said seriously, "Although Auntie said that, you should know that I, my second brother, third brother, and fourth brother Brother Xiaowu, none of us have thought about you that much. These days, we live together, we are a family. Don’t talk about whether to buy or sell in the future, okay? It sounds distressing.”
Li Man was slightly stunned, his eyes full of guilt and pity moved her a little, "You, feel sorry for me?"
"Yeah." Li Mo nodded, such a beautiful woman like her, with such an experience of being bought and sold, how can it not make people feel distressed
"You, care?" Looking into his eyes, Li Man felt that the stones stuck in his heart were being removed piece by piece.
"Yeah." Seeing that her face softened a little, Li Mo also heaved a sigh of relief, and continued, "Actually, my aunt has a sharp mouth and a good heart. Over the years, she has taken good care of our brothers, especially Xiao Wu. , as her own child. It's just that the matter of her father and mother hurt her heart, and her father's death has always made her worry about it, because she was afraid—"
He didn't say the last sentence, but just stared at Li Man's face in a daze.
"Afraid of what?" Li Man asked curiously.
Li Mo's voice was soft, showing a trace of weakness, "I'm afraid that our brothers will follow the old path of father."
"Huh?" Li Man was even more puzzled, "What old way?"
"It's nothing." Li Mo became vague. The matter of his father's generation had passed for so many years, and he didn't want to mention it again.
Li Man stared at him closely, and suddenly, a bold question popped into her mind, and she asked hesitantly, "How many fathers do you brothers... have?"
"Three." Li Mo didn't think this problem was a big deal, as most people in Shennvgou did.
"Three?" But Li Man was surprised, even though she had expected something in advance.
"Brother Mo." At this moment, He Hua ran over again and shouted to Li Mo, "My aunt told you to come over, she has something to tell you."
"Go and tell me that I will come right away." Li Mo ordered.
"Oh." Lian Hua snorted, seeing the two talking so close together, fire spewed out of their eyes.
Seeing her leaning against the door and not leaving, Li Mo's eyes turned cold, "What are you still standing for?"
"Oh, I still have to cook. Gu said she didn't dare to work for her, so let me do it." He Hua stared at Li Man jealously.
Li Man regarded her hostile eyes as air, Li Mo's comfort just now made her feel much better, "You go, I'll go back to the house and wash my face."
"Then—" Li Mo was still a little worried. "
Li Man smiled, "I'm not angry anymore." Thinking about it, Li Mo was more on her side just now, and he also defended her in front of people.
"Yeah." Li Mo was relieved now, "Then I'll go there first."
"Okay." Li Man followed her out of the kitchen and went back to the house by herself.
—
After Li Xiangyu was dragged back to the east room by Xiao Wu and her sister, she also gradually calmed down. It seemed that she had the upper hand just now, but in fact, she knew very well in her heart that the woman Li Man had the upper hand in her eldest nephew's heart.
And if she wants to marry He Hua to the Li family, she must first manipulate Li Mo.
Only when Li Mo agrees, can the others be resolved, otherwise, this matter will never be accomplished.
Therefore, at such a good time that Li Yan, Li Shu and Li Hua were not at home, Li Xiangyu felt that he had to act quickly. He wanted to drive Li Man away from the Li family. sure.
After all, he had disobeyed himself just now, and no matter how much he wanted, he would have to be scruples.
Therefore, when she had thought about everything, she asked He Hua to call Li Mo, intending to discuss all the problems.
"Auntie, are you looking for me?" Li Mo entered the room, saw Li Xiangyu sitting upright on the kang, and hurriedly stepped forward to ask.
"Yeah." Li Xiangyu narrowed his eyes slightly, pointed to the stool next to him, and said, "Sit down first."
Li Mo sat down and asked, "What's the matter?"
"You should know something." Li Xiangyu frowned, and said in a deep voice, "I mentioned it to you half a year ago, that child Hehua has a good family background and a good person, just looks like the one you bought. , but it’s not much different, isn’t it? It’s just that you don’t know how to dress up very much. If you dress up carefully, you won’t be ugly. Besides, what do women want to be so good-looking? It’s useless except for a vicious man. Your mother is an example .”
"Auntie."
"sister."
Li Mo and Li Xiangcao stopped at the same time.
Li Xiangyu also knew that she was talking fast, so she quickly changed her words, "Okay, okay, I won't talk about the past, let's talk about the present. Dalang, if your brothers like the woman you bought, I don't care It's just this lotus, but people really like you and are willing to marry into your family. How about this, my aunt will be the master this time, and help your brother marry her. After she enters the door, she grows up, that woman Small. What do you think?"
There is no need to think about this question at all, not only him, I am afraid that the younger brothers have never thought that there will be a second woman living in this yard, "Auntie, I can't decide this matter by myself, I have to wait for the second woman." Brother and the others come back and discuss it." Knowing that she was still angry, Li Mo said it tactfully.
Li Xiangyu showed displeasure, "You are the boss of the family, so they have to listen to you. If you agree, who would dare to say no?"
"Since Auntie has said so, then I will make a statement." Li Mo could only say, "Auntie, you can see what our family is like. Miss Lotus is so good, and we don't want to delay her."
Knowing that he still refused, Li Xiangyu hurriedly said, "Her parents said that the bride price is not required, and the dowry is also given. After all, there is only one precious girl in their family. I hope she can find someone she likes. Da Lang , This is also your blessing. After passing this village, there is no such shop. Haven't you seen the energy of Lotus? After she passes through the door, your family will definitely change."
"Let's forget it." Li Mo refused expressionlessly, which made Li Xiangyu feel confused, and winked at Li Xiangcao, "Vanilla, you can say something too."
Li Xiangcao was reluctant at first, but her sister's temper... "Li Mo, why don't you just accept it? It's not bad for our family. It's better to have more women in the family to take care of it. Moreover, lotus is really capable. There are many women outside the house. A good hand."
"Man'er is also very capable." Li Mo bowed his head slightly, and said slowly, "Besides, she can take care of the family affairs by herself, and there are several of us brothers in the outside affairs, so there is no reason for her to intervene .”
"You?" Li Xiangyu stood up abruptly angrily, "You mean what you said, but you don't want the lotus marriage?"
Li Mo didn't want her to be angry, but he was very helpless, "Auntie, I said this half a year ago, it's impossible, you don't know, the third brother wants to be rough when he sees her, and if she really gets married in the future, how can he still marry her?" Don't you fight every day?"
"Then you can't take care of it. What's more, in the past, it was the past. Once He Hua married into the family, she would be your daughter-in-law. No matter how messed up Li Shu is, he can't play rough with his own daughter-in-law again." Li Xiangyu said affirmatively, He smiled and said, "Who said this? A fight is a kiss or a love. What are you afraid of when a young couple fights? Also, you are not young anymore, it's time to have a child sooner, so you just buy it." Can the woman with that small body give birth to you? Our lotus is different. Look at her butt and crotch. You can give birth to her at a glance. Auntie can guarantee that as long as she enters the door, she will be able to give birth next year. If you add a big fat boy, you can hug two of them in three years, that's all possible."
"I'm not in a hurry to have a child." Li Mo replied, "You've seen this family too. It's just getting better. Having a child is also a drag."
Li Xiangyu's face darkened completely, and she yelled at him, "What are you doing? If I say a word, you will answer me. Who is Auntie doing this for? Isn't it for your brothers? Good daughter-in-law I will lead you in without paying a penny, and you will have to pay a dowry. Where are you going to find such a good thing? Now my nose is neither nose nor eye, so you want to make things difficult for your aunt?"
"Auntie." Xiaowu was at the side, gently tugged at the corner of Li Xiangyu's clothes, wrinkled his face and said, "I don't like that black woman, Auntie, I don't want her to be my wife."
Another wrinkle appeared on Li Xiangyu, "What do you guys know about what you like and don't like?"
"I don't want her, I want my sister," Xiao Wu simply clung to her arms and started crying.
He was crying so loudly that he could hear it clearly in the next room. Li Man leaned on the kang, listening to the movement next door, slightly pursed her lips and smiled, thinking that the pain for this little thing was not in vain.
As for Li Mo...
He rejected Lotus so directly, praising her for her ability.
Li Man's face gradually heated up, and her heart was actually sweet.
