Meng Li really didn't want to talk to Li's mother, but Li's mother didn't forgive him at all.
Seeing the little girl sitting next to her quietly playing with toys on a wooden chair, she shouted:
"Don't even eat movies, little girl. It's upsetting to watch you raise a loser."
Meng Li said calmly: "The noise makes me have a headache. I may not be able to go to work in the afternoon."
"You..., you are still planning to be lazy and not go to work. I will tell the eldest child when he comes back."
Mother Li pointed at Meng Li with a dark, thick finger, her face trembling.
Meng Li said indifferently:
"If Li Pingkai beats me so much that I can't get out of bed, I'll lie down at home and rest. If I don't go there for a few days, the factory won't want me anymore."
This small factory is not far from the town, and it is one of the few small factories in the area. The client can work in it because of his quick hands and feet, and his ability to endure hardships and stand hard work.
And I never ask for leave, I always work there honestly.
If you lose your job, it's not that easy to find another one.
"You have a job now, don't think it's a big deal. You belong to our family, and the money you earn also belongs to our family."
Meng Li yelled, laughed, and said no more, but Mother Li was so angry that Meng Li was so angry that her roaring voice scared Xiaoya to tears again. Xiaoya jumped off the wooden chair and staggered toward her. He followed Meng Li away, calling his mother.
Mother Li was annoyed by this, so she grabbed Xiaoya, squatted on the ground and placed Xiaoya across her thighs. She raised her hand to hit her and cursed:
"You damn girl, you know how to cry all the time. Look at me, I won't teach you a lesson."
Mother Li's raised hand was caught by Meng Li before she could hit Xiaoya. Meng Li said coldly:
"Don't take it out on the child."
"Children will be beaten if they disobey, just like adults." Mother Li glared at Meng Li, indicating something.
The veins on the back of Meng Li's hand were bulging. He released his hold on Mother Li's hand and hugged the child. Before he could speak, footsteps came from outside. It was Li Pingkai and his father who were back.
Mother Li's originally fierce face changed instantly, and she looked like she was about to cry. She sat on the wooden chair Xiaoya had made and shouted:
"Hey, big baby, big baby's daddy."
"Come and take a look at your wife. You are not at home. This evil woman is bullying me, an old woman."
Meng Li held the child and looked at Mother Li expressionlessly. The child was still crying loudly in her arms. All this made Meng Li feel very irritated. Meng Li closed his eyes and took a deep breath. , calm the mood.
The sound of Li Pingkai's footsteps came from outside the door. His small leather shoes made a clicking sound as he walked, and his voice was a bit sharp:
"Why, I'm not worried at all every day."
"Unlucky or not, no wonder I lost again at cards."
As he came in, Meng Li felt even more nauseated when he saw Li Pingkai. In the hot summer, Li Pingkai's body exuded a strong smell of sweat.
My hair is still 37-30 lengths. I used low-quality hairspray and it was twisted into strands with dandruff sticking to it. My face felt greasy all over.
Although Li Pingkai is not fat, his face is still oily.
A pair of trousers was also wrinkled, because Li Pingkai was not tall and his trousers could not be worn straight, so they just piled up on his ankles, not to mention how unsightly they were.
Meng Li felt really off-putting. Li Pingkai's shirt was also wrinkled and yellow, and he looked just disgusting.
At this moment, Li Pingkai stared at Meng Li arrogantly, while Li's mother kept complaining. From Li's mother's mouth, Meng Li was lazy and unfilial to her mother-in-law.
Father Li, on the other hand, propped his head outside the kitchen and looked in. Meng Li glanced at him and saw a dry old man holding a dry cigarette in his hand, smoking it, his eyes shining brightly.
He also looked like he was watching a good show.
Nor spoke.
Old Man Li has this kind of character. He won't talk to anyone who has no interest in him.
As long as the slightest bit of interest is harmed or no advantage is taken, no one in the village likes this family.
Li's mother is sarcastic and Li's father is only profit-seeking.
Li Pingkai's conduct was even worse. Children would take a detour when they saw him.
If the client marries into such a family, it will be a disaster in life.
After Li's mother finished her complaint, Li Pingkai's expression turned bad. When he opened the lid of the pot, he saw food that looked like pig food. He walked up to Meng Li, raised his foot and kicked Meng Li towards him.
Meng Li dodged and stared at Li Pingkai coldly:
"If you dare to touch me today, I will never go to work."
Li Pingkai became even more angry:
"Okay, you stinky bitch, how dare you not go to work? What will you eat if you don't go to work? If you don't go to work, I'll beat you to go to work."
He stretched out his hand to grab Meng Li's hair, but Meng Li held the child and ran away. The child was so frightened that he pushed it into Meng Li's arms. Meng Li patted the child's back with his hand and asked coldly:
"You won't pay back the money you owe others?"
Li Pingkai owed gambling debts outside and told others to pay back 200 yuan this month.
Today's two hundred yuan is very valuable to this family, and the client's monthly salary is only five to six hundred yuan.
Prices are not as high as they will be in the future, and pork only costs a few yuan, but pork that costs a few yuan is not affordable every day.
In the plot, the client was severely beaten for the two hundred yuan.
The client was really distressed. After working for a month, half of the salary was used to pay off gambling debts.
But even if he didn't want to, the client still couldn't resist, and the two hundred yuan was still taken away by Li Pingkai.
"Kill me today if you can, otherwise I will keep my promise."
Meng Li's eyes flashed fiercely, this family is really annoying.
Li Pingkai's expression suddenly changed. If this woman really stopped going to work and was fired by her boss, who would pay him back
The money has to be paid back. The other party is not easy to bully. If the money is not paid, he will be in trouble.
Moreover, facing Meng Li's firm and fierce gaze, Li Pingkai's heart trembled.
It gave him the feeling that he could do whatever he said.
This made Li Pingkai suppress the idea of taking action.
Li Pingkai calculated the days and figured out that his salary would be paid in a few days. He told others that the days to pay back the money would also be those days. He could not let this woman mess him up at this critical moment.
When I get my salary back, I can take care of this woman.
Seeing that Li Pingkai had no intention of hitting anyone again, Mother Li felt dissatisfied and quickly fanned the flames:
"Big boy, women have to be disciplined. If you are shocked by her today, she will climb up the pole in the future."
Meng Li smiled sarcastically and said nothing. He just stared at Li Pingkai with no warmth in his eyes.
The stare made Li Pingkai feel intrusive. Li Pingkai's momentum weakened by half unconsciously, but he still said to Meng Li:
"I'm telling you, don't be too arrogant. Don't think that I'm afraid of you. The main reason is that I'm in a good mood today and I'm too lazy to do anything."
"Hurry up and apologize to mom, and forget about it."
