Lamp oil is like beans.
Li Weiyang turned over on the bed and suddenly woke up. She clearly heard the sound of conversation coming from outside.
Outside the house, Ma said carefully: "Mom, do you think you are looking for someone to see the third lady? After all, she was sent by the Li family and she is really dead..."
After hearing what his daughter-in-law said, Liu said with a cold face and said lightly: "This girl really treats herself as a great lady. I have heard people say that she is just a concubine who crawled out of the belly of a girl who washed her feet. She was born in February again. She is an absolute disaster star. Li is a big family, so it is hard to kill her directly, so she threw her to the distant relative of the Li family in Pingcheng. But later, the old lady and wife of the Li family got sick one after another. Isn't this obviously her defeated? So she hurriedly sent to our countryside! Humph, I think she is not only a disaster star, but also a lazy guy. Every time she asks her to do something, she pretends to die. A stinky girl!"
Li Weiyang listened to the conversation and suddenly looked around cleverly. There was basically no furniture in the room, only a square table, four long wooden benches, and a cabinet for things. In the end, only the wooden bed where he was lying on was left.
Here is - her mind was stunned for a moment, and the conversation outside was still clearly coming in.
"When she was in the Li family, there were people who served her. Where did she do rough work? Today I accidentally fell into an ice hole and became sick. I can't blame her entirely..." Now the weather is cold, but Liu asked Wei Yang, a child, to wash clothes on the ice. Ma was unbearable and his tone became more and more confused.
Liu snorted coldly: "There is still a breath of heat in the dead man's belly. This daughter is good. She does a little bit of work, just like holding a ghost on a peach tree. What they say is, this is a donkey who is beaten and not beaten or walk. She has to walk in three steps. Seeing her pretending to be sick there, I will get angry, and then throw it out and freeze to death!" After saying that, she stared at Ma, "You think I don't know, you pity this bitch. If you pity her, you will wash the clothes yourself!"
Ma hurriedly continued: "Yes, what my mother said is that my wife will never dare to talk nonsense again..."
Liu stood up angrily and threw the door on with a slam.
What's going on? Aren't she dead? How could she lie here? Li Weiyang wanted to move, but she was weak all over, as if her bones were disintegrating. She struggled to see everything here clearly. At this moment, the person outside suddenly lifted the curtain and came in.
Soon, Li Weiyang fell into the arms of a man. The man had narrow shoulders, soft chest, and a scent of soapberry on his body.
"Drink a bowl of porridge, and you will get sick if you sweat!"
The heat came to her face, but Li Weiyang seemed to have seen a ghost, staring at the woman in front of her with a strange expression - if she remembered correctly, the farm woman in her 20-year-old farmer was clearly the eldest daughter-in-law Ma of the farmer she had lived in back then. But how could this be possible? She was obviously sentenced to death by poisoned wine, but in a blink of an eye, why did she see someone she met again twenty-three years ago?
She married Tuoba Zhen at the age of sixteen, and then became the throne eight years later. She stayed in the cold palace for a full twelve years. She was already thirty-six years old when she died, but Ma still looked like she was twenty-three years ago, which was simply incredible! She subconsciously glanced at her hands, thin, small, with a faint crescent whiteness on her fingertips.
This is not the hand of a thirty-six-year-old woman, this is the hand of a little girl! Thinking of this, there was a hint of fear in Li Weiyang's eyes.
Ma said worriedly: "Why, is it still cold on his body?"
Her voice was full of concern, and it could be heard that she really cared about herself.
"I should find a doctor to show you, but mom...ah..."
Li Weiyang looked at the porridge in Ma's hand. He didn't know what rice it was made of. The smell was strange, but for some reason, her eyes gradually became wet.
If it is a dream, she hopes that the dream will not wake up! Because she has a feeling that she is still alive!
Just as Li Weiyang was about to speak, he suddenly saw a man quickly lifting the curtain from outside and walking in.
Mrs. Ma originally held a bowl of porridge in one hand, but when he saw Mrs. Liu's face, he couldn't help but tremble.
"What are you doing? You won't bring it over!"
Ma was shocked and quickly let go of Li Weiyang and stood up. He was about to put the bowl on the table, but because he was too anxious, the bowl leaned over. Some soup was poured outwards, making his fingers so painful that they were so hot that they tried to put it down.
Seeing that she dared to secretly deliver food to Li Weiyang, Liu splashed out the soup and became hot. He picked up the bowl of porridge on the table and threw it on Ma's face. With a clang, the soup that was soaked in Ma's body, she jumped up and pointed and cursed: "Little bitch, I said no one is allowed to deliver food to her. You can't hear me, right? If you don't want to stay in this house, get out immediately. Your mother can't knead the sand in her eyes, let you appear in front of me!"
Poor Ma's face turned red and swollen by the bowl of hot porridge of Liu. He held back his tears and did not dare to say anything. He just twisted the corner of his clothes and gently wiped it. He bent down to pick up the broken porcelain pieces underground.
Liu and the memory have not changed at all. They are mean and polite to others. Whether they treat themselves or their daughter-in-law Ma, they are always used as cows and horses. Li Weiyang stared at Liu and was about to speak subconsciously. Ma hurriedly gave her a wink, as if she told her not to speak, and she opened her mouth to blame her for her.
Ma is a gentle daughter-in-law, but no matter what she does, Liu, the evil mother-in-law, refused to let her go. She was just picky all day long. When she saw Ma coming to help Li Weiyang, she thought she was deliberately fighting against her, and she was even more mean to them. Li Weiyang gritted her teeth and stared at Liu without a moment.
Liu subconsciously glanced at Li Weiyang, but saw that there was a hint of indescribable chill in her cold gaze. She suddenly jumped in her heart and cursed: "Are you crazy? What kind of eyes are you looking at me!"
Li Weiyang had no time to think about why she had changed back to her thirteen-year-old appearance. Her thoughts changed and she touched her neck for a long time. Sure enough, she felt a jade pendant. It was her own mother who had been hanging around her neck since she was a child. Prime Minister Li sent her to the Li family of her clan relatives. The Li family raised her until she was seven years old. At first, she asked the maid's mother to serve her. Later, she found that Prime Minister Li had no intention of picking her up back to Kyoto. She didn't know who was instigated, so she threw herself directly to a farmer in the countryside to raise her, giving her ten taels of silver a month. Half a year ago, for some reason, she suddenly didn't even give her living expenses. Liu licked her face and went to the door to ask for it three times, but the Li family ignored her. Therefore, Liu hated her more and more. Not only did she treat her as a maid, she even abused her thousands and hundreds of times, and she refused to leave. She often beat her up with someone on her back.
Liu looked at Li Weiyang's appearance and frowned and cursed: "What a daze, little bitch!"
This jade pendant was the only thought left by my mother. She tried her best to hide it everywhere and never dared to let Liu know. But today... Li Weiyang looked up at her, and a clear and cold light flashed in his eyes, and a flattering smile appeared on his face, "Aunt Zhou, I am here thanks to your care, and there is nothing to thank you, so I will give this jade pendant to you."
If she remembered correctly, this ordinary-quality Pisces jade pendant would have been discovered and stolen by Liu half a month later. She had once asked for it, but was beaten. Later, when she became the third prince's concubine, she sent someone back to look for it. However, due to a plague, most of the people died many years ago. Even Liu was dead, and there was no news about the jade pendant.
Liu did not expect that the jade pendant that she had been trying to find and the girl was hiding everywhere was taken out by Li Weiyang himself. Her face suddenly looked much better. She snorted coldly and snatched the jade pendant from her hand, saying, "This is almost the same!"
Ma looked at Li Weiyang in surprise, as if he didn't know her at all. In her impression, Weiyang kept protecting the jade pendant and never refused to take it away. How could he suddenly give it to Liu...
Liu took the jade pendant and felt much better. He snorted coldly and said, "Forget it, you can lie in bed for another day, but you have to get up and work tomorrow!"
Li Weiyang's smile became more and more gentle: "Of course Aunt Liu, I will get up tomorrow!"
Liu was surprised at Li Weiyang's gentleness and was about to say a few more words. At this time, a tall man suddenly walked in from outside and came in to see the scene. He seemed to be accustomed to it. He looked at Ma with anger, as if he was tired of it. He smiled reluctantly and said, "Mom, why are you angry again? Come on, today I bought you a piece of fabric at the market. It looks the same as the wife in the county town. Come and see it with me!" As he said that, he dragged and urged Liu out.
While leaving, Liu turned around and looked at Ma and said, "Let me see what you gave her food again, carefully your skin!" He murmured and cursed all the way.
Seeing that Liu was not in front of him, Ma covered his face and tears fell like rain.
Li Weiyang looked at Ma and shook his head slightly. It was useless to give in. If that jade pendant is naturally more than a way to get back! To deal with a scoundrel like Liu, you must be punished until she is stripped of three layers of skin!
