Chapter 010
The demo is very deep into the role.
Did he really think of himself as her husband-in-law?
"The second young master of the Zhou family." Liu Yunmian said, "I wanted to be his aunt in the past, but I was blind."
She was very calm and did not avoid it. After all, that was what happened.
Lu Ci: "..."
He couldn't accept these words. Originally, he thought Liu Yunmian would be more tactful.
"My husband won't mind," Liu Yunmian said with a smile.
Lu Ci: “No—I don’t mind.”
"That's good, otherwise you have to endure it." She thought the latter sentence was a slander, but she brought it out.
"What did the lady say?"
"nothing."
Just told the truth.
"Let's go home."
After returning home, there was a huge "surprise" waiting for the two of them.
As soon as I got off the ox cart carrying the shopping, Mimi rushed over.
"Haha, did you know that my little aunt bought you delicious food?" Liu Yunmian said with a smile.
But Mimi said anxiously: "Little aunt, grandma has asked me to wait for you here for a long time."
Her face was red and there was a thin line of sweat on the tip of her nose.
Liu Yunmian originally thought she was happy, but when she heard her tone, she couldn't help but be surprised: "What happened at home?"
"Auntie is back." Mimi said, "I was having a quarrel with my grandmother at home."
Has the eldest sister Liu Yunxing returned to her parents’ home?
Although there were memories of the eldest sister in his previous life, Liu Yunmian has never seen the domineering eldest sister in his memory since he "recovered".
What's the point of going back to your parents' house and quarreling with your own mother?
But it seems that it has nothing to do with her.
Should she be asked to go back and break up the fight?
"...Grandma said that you should not go home yet and hide in the old house."
Liu Yunmian has a question mark face, what is she hiding from?
To harm innocent people?
After all, Mimi was young and could not speak very clearly, but after going back and forth and asking many questions, Liu Yunmian finally understood.
It turned out that Liu Yunxing's anger was directed at herself.
This is... really a disaster.
"My eldest aunt said that the money at home is for my second uncle to get a wife, and she wants my second uncle to give away my younger sister-in-law."
Liu Yunmian couldn't help but glance at Lu Ci after hearing this.
Lu Ci smiled at her, "I know the lady doesn't have that kind of heart and doesn't care what outsiders say."
These two sisters are really sisters in terms of their attitude towards him!
Liu Yunmian: I do, but I dare not say it.
She also helped Liu Yunxing: "Auntie definitely didn't mean that."
"My eldest aunt said that if I can't return it, I'll sell it." Mimi is an honest child. "My second uncle said that if I can't sell it for the price, I'll have to pay someone else twenty taels for it."
Although Liu Yunmian tried her best to hold back her laughter, the corners of her mouth still betrayed her.
"You're kidding." She touched Mimi's head and ended the topic, "Grandma said, where should I go to hide?"
Mimi looked at her in surprise.
"What's wrong?"
"Grandma said... my little aunt will definitely not hide. She wants to go back and argue with her eldest aunt. Let me finish telling you, then run home and secretly call my dad to come out and stop you!"
I didn't expect that if you don't play your cards according to the routine, I will be fooled.
No matter how Mimi looked, my little aunt didn't look angry.
Liu Yunmian: "..."
"Then now, should I go back and tell my father?" Mimi was confused.
The corner of Lu Ci's lips also curled up, as if to say, look at your family, this is how they know you.
Liu Yunmian thought for a while and asked: "Did grandma tell your father to take me somewhere to hide?"
"Go to the old house."
"Okay, then let's go to the old house."
I'll go by myself, so I won't bother you.
The so-called old house is actually located behind Liu's house. It has three thatched houses, two of which are right next to each other.
When Liu Xiucai and Gao first got married, they lived in a thatched house. Later, when their family situation improved, they built a new house.
Mimi asked tentatively: "Little aunt, are you really not going to quarrel with eldest aunt?"
She had seen the two aunts quarreling before. The needles were pointing at each other, and the sky was thundering and the ground was on fire. It was as if they were about to tear down the roof.
"Stop arguing, let's go, you follow me to the old house, I bought you delicious candies and snacks."
If it were my predecessor, I would definitely go back and make a huge quarrel.
After all, the perception of family favoritism has tortured my predecessor for many years.
But Liu Yunmian is different. She is a latecomer and it is difficult for her to enter into the thinking of her predecessor.
And she felt that Liu Yunxing was not entirely wrong.
For example, the predecessor was a bit extreme, but it was indeed a matter of heaven and earth.
In such a big family, it is impossible for everyone to revolve around one person.
As for which of the two sisters has contributed more to the family, and which one the family favors more, it is a bad debt that cannot be calculated.
Liu Yunxing was old at the time and people were unwilling to take her. This is a fact.
After getting married, Liu Yunxing must have subsidized her mother's family a lot, otherwise how could the Liu family save twenty taels of silver?
Not talking about right or wrong, I can only say that each has its own reasons.
After all, she is not the predecessor, so she doesn’t want to get entangled in these matters where the father-in-law is right and the mother-in-law is right.
She cherished being able to survive for a second time; she never relied on others and lived her own life with a clear conscience.
There was a look of surprise in Lu Ci's eyes, but it passed quickly, and he quickly followed his aunt and nephew as if nothing had happened.
The old house didn't even have a wall, only a fence around it, with debris piled up on both sides, and a vegetable patch in the middle, which hadn't been sown yet because it was just spring.
Pushing open the door inside is the kitchen. The iron pot on the stove was taken away, revealing the empty bottom of the stove, which was dark and scary.
The one on the left is a bedroom, and the one on the right is a utility room. Both rooms are dilapidated, and the corners are covered with spider webs.
There were spots on the ground left by sunlight shining through the roof. Liu Yunmian looked up and saw many leaks.
This house... is really bare.
Fortunately it didn't rain, otherwise it would rain heavily outside and light rain inside.
"Mimi, go back and keep an eye on me. Let me know when my aunt is gone."
With candy in her mouth, Mimi agreed vaguely, carefully holding the candy for Tiedan in her hand.
I have sweets to eat today, and I am as happy as the Chinese New Year.
Liu Yunmian wanted to clean the house, but he didn't even have a rag or water.
There was an old big broom in the yard, so she found a place to put her things down and asked Lu Ci to go out and clean up the yard together.
Lu Ci was a little surprised: "Madam, do you really plan to live here?"
"Well." Liu Yunmian said, "Instead of my eldest sister coming back once and me hiding once, why not pack up and live here. And -"
She raised her eyebrows and said jokingly, "We are all married, and it's time to start our own independent business. Why, my husband doesn't want to?"
Lu Ci said sincerely: "I listen to my wife."
"Then let's clean it up together." Liu Yunmian threw the broom to him unceremoniously and went to move the debris himself.
"Where has she gone? Why hasn't she come back? Did you tip her off to make her avoid me?" Liu Yunxing's pungent voice came from the front yard.
Liu Mingren seemed to be trying to persuade him weakly, but he couldn't hear clearly.
