MTL - Dressed As a Farm Boy, He Cheated on His Way Out of the Desert.-Chapter 42 Mrs. Li’s ultimate trick

Chapter 42 Mrs. Li’s ultimate move

 “What? Five taels of silver!” Mrs. Li was annoyed at that time.

Jiayin was uncomfortable being strangled by grandma's suddenly tightened arms, but she didn't care anymore and waved her fists in anger.

"Yes, mother." Tao Hongying had already warmed up, so she took her daughter over and said again.

“Wu Ergou pulled Jiaren’s collar and scolded him so unpleasantly that all the students in the academy came out to see Jiaren’s joke. Fortunately we went, otherwise Jiaren wouldn’t know what to do.”

Wu Cuihua felt guilty after hearing this, her eyes rolled, she stepped back and responded with an embarrassed smile.

“Really, there is also this matter. Ergou is too ignorant. I will definitely say something to him when I see him in the future..."

It's a pity that she tried to fool her but failed. Li Laoer had heard clearly and stepped forward and slapped Wu Cuihua so hard that she almost fell down.

“Wu Cuihua, how many times have I told you that I can tolerate you being lazy and greedy, but you are not filial and will delay your child’s future.

 A few days ago, you approached Jiaren at the entrance of the village to ask for money. Do you think I don't know? I saved your face, but you actually let Wu Ergou go to the academy to cause trouble again! I'll beat you to death today, and my family will be at peace! "

Li Laoer was really angry and went crazy. He rushed to the kitchen and took out a kitchen knife. His eyes were blood red and he was about to chop at Wu Cuihua.

Wu Cuihua was so frightened that her legs went weak. She couldn't run anymore and crawled all over the ground, crying and begging for mercy.

 For a time, the Li family yard was full of chaos and chaos.

People in the village came to break up the fight when they heard the commotion, and none of the old men next door were left behind.

Jiayin tried hard to hold my mother's arm, trying to see clearly.

It's a pity that Tao Hongying thought she was uncomfortable, so she held her upright on his shoulders and let Jiayin look at the lonely courtyard wall...

Although Mrs. Li was also angry, she could not let her son commit murder and go to jail.

So he called Li Laosan to help stop Li Laoer, and asked Zhao Yuru to ask the village chief.

 Soon, Li Laoer's kitchen knife was snatched away, and he squatted at the door in pain.

Although he is literate, he has not gone out to study. Now that his son goes to the academy, it is to realize his dream. He really hopes that his son will honor his ancestors.

 But he has no choice but to marry such a stupid wife!

The village chief heard the general idea on the way and was happy that the Li family came to see him. They treated him as an outsider and treated him with respect and trust.

Sure enough, Mrs. Li invited him and the old men next door to sit down, talked about this trivial matter at home, and then continued.

“The family’s misfortune has made everyone in the village uneasy. I invited some old brothers and the village chief to come over today just to be a witness.”

 She glanced at her children and grandchildren and sighed softly.

"As the old saying goes, a good wife brings less trouble to a husband, and the second son deserves to be blinded. But I can't let this prodigal troublemaker harm my grandson. So today, I asked the second son to write a letter of divorce, but I won't give it to the second son's wife for the time being. .

From then on, the whole village watched over our family, and whenever the second daughter-in-law did anything bad, they would kick her out of the house.

 There are outsiders who don’t know the inside story and say that our Li family is cruel. Naturally, there are also people in the village who will speak out for our family. "

The village chief and several old men all sighed. The Li family, old and young, are all good people, but it is Li Lao's second daughter-in-law who always causes trouble.

Now the divorce letter is like a rope, wrapped around her neck, and it can be tightened from time to time as a warning.

If it doesn’t work anymore, it will be her own fault if she is kicked out.

“Sure, the whole village is bright-eyed. There will come a time when no one will say that your Li family is unkind.”

The Li family has now opened half a private school, and naturally has the four treasures of the study. Li Laoer was a little impatient, so he started writing the divorce letter with trembling hands.

Wu Cuihua was dumbfounded with fright. She originally thought that a beating would be enough, but she never expected that she would actually write a letter of divorce.

 She almost crawled over and hugged Old Mrs. Li's thigh, crying until her nose and tears were all stained on her face.

“Mom, please forgive me once and don’t write a letter of divorce. I know I was wrong, I really know I was wrong! Wow, even though I’m not good at anything, I still gave birth to two grandsons for Lao Li’s family!”

 Old Mrs. Li was really chilled. She pushed her away and said coldly.

"If it weren't for the fact that you gave birth to two good grandsons for our old Li family, you would have been kicked out a long time ago. You are lazy, greedy, mean-mouthed, unfilial and rebellious, unkind and unloving. What do our Li family want you to do? Let go. Dirty eyes?"

Just as Li Laoer finished writing the divorce letter and handed it over, Mrs. Li took it in her hand and said again.

"From today on, Wu Cuihua, you are just half of the Li family. You must do your job, keep your mouth shut, and take care of your hands, otherwise you will be kicked out of the Li family at any time."

 When the time comes, it’s your own fault. Don’t say I don’t care about you! "

As she spoke, she put away the divorce papers.

Wu Cuihua sat in a pile on the ground, completely panicked. Unfortunately, she still asked for mercy, but Mrs. Li called Li Laoer again.

"Although Wu Cuihua has been spared the death penalty, she has caused such a big disaster and will not be able to escape. It is difficult for others in the family to take action, so you should do it. Twenty boards, no less!"

Li Laoer is also very hateful, and of course he will not show mercy.

 He stepped forward and kicked Wu Cuihua over, pulled up the bench, and tied her up.

Wu Cuihua was frightened out of her mind. Li Laoer usually regarded himself as a scholar and rarely beat her.

 She was really scared when it suddenly happened like this today.

 “Oh, oh, spare my life, I don’t dare to do it anymore!”

  Unfortunately, the board in Mr. Li’s hands has fallen.

With just one blow, she screamed like a slaughtered pig.

 It is said to be a board, but it is actually the carrying pole used by the Li family on a daily basis. It is wide and heavy.

　　It only took a dozen or so strokes, but blood oozed from Wu Cuihua’s buttocks, and she was wailing as if she was about to die...

In the end, Tao Hongying and Zhao Yuru dragged her back to the room, washed her randomly, and sprinkled some wound medicine that was always available at home.

With such a commotion, the Li family had no intention of eating. They just dealt with it randomly and then rested.

Old Mrs. Li was sitting on the edge of the kang, holding her pipe and pot in her hand, shedding tears quietly.

 In fact, she did not smoke dry cigarettes originally. This was left after the old man passed away, and it also supported her thoughts.

 “Old man, it’s all my fault. This family is not managed well.”

Jiayin couldn't bear to let the old lady be so sad. It's not worth it to do it for others, but for Wu Cuihua, a wolf-hearted person.

She spent a long time conserving her strength and wanted to turn over and crawl over to her grandma to make a warm little cotton-padded jacket.

 Unfortunately, my strength was not in control and was used in the wrong place, so there was a puff...

Old Mrs. Li was feeling sad. When she heard the noise, she turned around and saw her granddaughter lying there with her neck raised, looking like she was about to cry or not.

There was something she didn't understand, so she hurriedly helped to clean it up while suppressing a smile.

 Changing the urine ring and washing the buttocks, the grandfather and the grandson were finally lying on the bed clean again.

Jiayin shyly hid her little face in her grandma’s arms, not daring to lift it up.

Mrs. Li laughed hard and patted her granddaughter carefully.

“Okay, why is our little Fu Niu still shy? Grandma knows that Xiao Fu Niu is a clean child. When she grows up, grandma will make you a beautiful dress, okay?”

Fu Niuer tried her best to stick her head out, grinning to reveal two rows of pink gums, and then threw a big red apple out of the space.

Mrs. Li was startled by the sudden appearance of apples on the pillow, but with the hot water bottle as a base, she felt much better this time.

She thought for a moment, wiped the apple clean with her handkerchief, then bit into a piece and handed it to her granddaughter.

Sure enough, Jiayin immediately held it with both hands and put it into her mouth. She had no teeth and couldn't bite it, but she didn't waste time sipping it.

Jiayin was so happy that she finally tasted apples again after four months. Woohoo, it was so delicious.

Mrs. Li laughed again at her granddaughter's small appearance, then quickly ate all the rest, and finally hugged her granddaughter with satisfaction.

“Grandma’s lucky girl, you are only so old, and grandma is enjoying the blessing with you.”

Jiayin actually rubbed off a small bit of the apple with her gums and danced happily...

The sadness and anger during the day seemed to be swallowed up by the grandfather and grandson along with this sweet apple, so only happiness and joy were left in the dream...

But after Wu Cuihua was severely beaten, she became much more honest, and the injuries at the back only lasted five or six days, and she started to work lamely. When she saw the old lady, she was like a mouse to a cat.

She helps Zhao Yuru and Tao Hongying with cooking and laundry every day, and she doesn't dare to be lazy any more.

The Li family would be better off without her interfering with it.

The weather is getting colder and colder. After a heavy snowfall overnight, almost half of every household's house was buried.
