Chapter 113
113 Chapter 112, Making Trouble
Li Miao stuffed her belongings into her luggage one by one.
Apart from Li Yong and Zhang Kun, Li Xu also gave gifts.
However, like Qin Junshan, Li Xu was also a frank person.
She gave her a bank card with 1,000 Yuan inside!
Of which, 500 Yuan was the tuition fees for this odd semester. The rest of the money was at Li Miao’s disposal.
Her sister’s original words were, ‘The money has been given to you, I don’t care anymore. Whether you want to tell your parents or not, it’s up to you. When you get there, don’t be stingy and let your classmates laugh at you. Spend where you have to spend the money. If you have no money, give me a call, and I’ll transfer the money to this card for you’.
Thinking of this, Li Miao’s eyes were a little red.
Her sister was so good. She must be happy for the rest of her life.
At ten o’clock, Qin Mucheng and the driver arrived. They brought Li Miao to B City.
Li Miao’s brand new life was about to begin!
Because the Qin family was there, there wouldn’t be any problems on the road, so the Li family didn’t follow them.
Most importantly, they indeed have their hands full!
After more than a month, the seven and a half acres of land were all arranged and planted.
After sending Li Miao away, Liu Guihua and Li Zhiming ran to the fields again.
The weather was so hot now, so the vegetables in the fields still needed to be watered frequently.
However, the vegetables were delicate, so they couldn’t be watered like grain. They could only use buckets to carry the water and use a water ladle to sprinkle the water bit by bit.
If they watered it too much and drowned it, it would go bad.
As she watered it, Liu Guihua suddenly heard something banging behind her.
She turned around and immediately shouted, “Dear! It is Yufang’s mother!”
Li Zhiming also turned around and saw Yufang’s mother holding a hoe and fiercely knocking on the steel pipe of the shed!
No matter how strong the steel pipe was, it couldn’t withstand such torment!
He hurriedly put down the bucket in his hand, threw the water ladle directly onto the bucket, and ran outside.
Liu Guihua followed closely behind.
When they reached the ground, Yufang’s mother’s movements had already stopped.
Li Zhiming turned his head to look. The two steel pipes were deflated.
“How good are you, smashing things around?”
Li Zhiming’s heart ached for the money. Naturally, he didn’t have a good attitude when he saw Yufang’s mother.
Yufang’s mother’s mean face pulled out a cold smile, “I only heard today that your family is holding a banquet for your daughter! If you have money to hold a banquet, why don’t you have money to compensate for the dowry?”
Li Zhiming didn’t say anything when he heard this.
His daughter had done well. He was happy to hold a banquet.
“Yo, what are you being so quiet about now?” Yufang’s mother became even more arrogant when she saw that Li Zhiming didn’t say anything, “Do you think I’m talking nonsense? My daughter is only 23 this year, and she looks good. We don’t have to worry about her marriage!”
Liu Guihua was somewhat at a loss, “We... you...”
“Don’t you know what’s going on with your Li Lei? After the New Year, he would be 29 years old. With your family’s situation, if you miss our Yufang, which good girl would be willing to marry him?” The more Yufang’s mother spoke, the more she felt that what she said made sense.
“Give me the definite answer today. Are you going to give me the money or not? If you don’t give me the money today, then forget about this marriage. Tomorrow, I will find a good family for Yufang to marry. Let’s see which b*tard will regret it! With your son’s situation, he can only find a widow after coming back!”
Yufang’s mother looked at Liu Zhiming from the corner of her eyes, “Look at your family. The eldest daughter has divorced and was chased back to her family. The man would rather give up his child to divorce her. Maybe your daughter did something shameful! Besides, your second son is so old. I heard that he doesn’t even have a partner. Is there something wrong with him? He doesn’t look like a normal person...”
Li Zhiming listened to her words and suddenly became ruthless, “No, we won’t continue the marriage!”
Hearing this, Liu Guihua hurriedly grabbed Li Zhiming’s arm in panic, “Dear, you can’t just say that...”
Yufang’s mother didn’t expect Li Zhiming to be so stubborn.
She stared blankly at the old couple and was so angry that she didn’t speak for a long time.
“With this kind of in-law, will my son have a good life for the rest of his life? I’d rather my son marry a widow or even one with a child than let his marriage become such a disaster!”
Hearing Li Zhiming’s words, Yufang’s mother finally came back to her senses. She picked up the hoe on the ground and was about to smash it into the shed, “Who are you talking about...”
“If you dare to smash it, I’ll kill you. Do you believe me?” Seeing this, Li Zhiming took the brick on the ground and said fiercely.
It was also the first time Liu Guihua saw her man like this. She was so scared that she couldn’t say anything for a moment.
Yufang’s mother was so scared that she threw away the hoe in her hand, took a few steps back, and ran away.
...
When Li Xu received Liu Guihua’s call, the shop was not busy at all.
Ji Yuanyuan was sitting in her arms, looking at the account book with a serious look on her face.
“Your father is too impulsive. If you can’t come back tomorrow, come with me to Yufang’s house to apologize. Your father is like a quiet gourd now. He doesn’t say a word. Asking him to apologize is even harder than killing him! Yufang is a good girl. You’ve met her before. Besides, Xiao Lei likes her...”
“Grandma, let me ask you a question!” Ji Yuanyuan asked before Liu Guihua could finish her sentence.
She was close, so she heard everything Liu Guihua said just now.
Liu Guihua was stunned for a moment, then asked, “What do you want to ask Grandma?”
“That Aunt Yufang’s mother has been to our house a few times, right? Logically speaking, Aunt Yufang should know. Why didn’t she follow?”
After Ji Yuanyuan said that, Liu Guihua was stunned.
...
Li Xu reached out and touched her daughter’s head, thinking to herself, that her mother was also anxious about Xiao Lei’s matter. She could not understand something that even Yuanyuan could think clearly about.
If Yufang did not approve of her mother’s actions, even if she did not know about it at the time, she should have gone to the house later to apologize and explain.
Yufang’s mother had gone to their house to cause trouble repeatedly. There was no movement at Yu Fang’s place. There were only two possibilities.
First, Yufang thought the same as her mother. She also felt that the betrothal gifts were too little and supported her mother to cause trouble.
Second, although Yufang was unwilling, she could not make decisions for her mother. She could only hide at home.
Regardless of the outcome, Li Xu felt that this was not a good marriage.
In fact, at that time, she felt that the marriage between Xiao Lei and Yufang was a little too rushed.
“Then... then what should we do now?” Liu Guihua’s voice sounded like she was crying, “Xiao Lei is almost 30 years old. How can we find another one in time? Moreover, we have already given them the betrothal gift. If they don’t get married, they definitely won’t give us a refund.”
“Is this 600 Yuan more important than Xiao Lei’s happiness? I think my father did the right thing today. Xiao Lei will be back in a few days. When he comes back, let him meet Yufang and see what she wants,” Li Xu advised.
