Chapter 229 Take the opportunity to help Li Yuanqing
When Li Yuanwu thought about his daughter being sold into a brothel, of course he also wanted to squeeze out benefits from his eldest brother's two daughters, "Yes, dad, a good man will not suffer the loss in front of him. When we get to the government, maybe we will be beaten. After all, Liu
Pan'er is now the fifth-grade imperial concubine, and the county magistrate has to salute her when she sees her. Our arms can't twist our thighs, and if we try hard, we will be unlucky."
Mrs. Li choked up and said while wiping her tears: "Master, don't force yourself. Let's leave as soon as we get the money. I can see that those two little bitches Liu Pan'er and Liu Xiaohua don't want us to stay."
Over here. If we force ourselves to stay, they might one day do something against us. Then there will be something wrong, and we will regret it!"
In fact, Old Man Li was reluctant in every possible way, but after hearing what his wife and two sons said, he gradually calmed down.
People under the eaves have to bow their heads.
He may not be afraid of Village Chief Li, nor is he afraid of his former eldest daughter-in-law, Mrs. Liu, but he is especially afraid of Liu Pan'er.
Even the government officials were respectful to Liu Pan'er. If this woman did something evil, he would be just a helpless child and would not be able to resist.
A good man never suffers immediate losses. In this case, it is better to ask for a sum of money openly and confidently when there is a suitable reason.
With this money, plus the money the government will distribute to return home next year, they can live a better life.
Old Man Li quickly figured it out, and then looked at Village Chief Li, "Li Changming, don't you just think that my son has a lot of potential, and you want to keep my son in the clan? You can keep Yuan Qing if you want, but for us
This family cannot be eliminated, but divided into clans. If you don't agree, I will definitely not allow my third son to stay in your family tree!"
Although Village Chief Li is the head of the Li clan, Old Man Li is Li Yuanqing's biological father after all, and this relationship cannot be circumvented no matter what.
Now that Old Man Li has backed down and negotiated conditions with him, Village Chief Li nodded for Li Yuanqing's sake, "Okay, for Yuan Qing's sake, split the clan, but Yuan Qing must be in our branch.
Go up. You, Li Yuanwu, and Li Yuangong are separated. From now on, Li Yuanqing is a descendant of my Li family. Even if he is your biological son, you cannot control him at will. Write it clearly in black and white, otherwise I will not agree to separate. You must
I will expel you from the Li family."
Village Chief Li thought that Li Yuanqing was being squeezed and bullied by Old Man Li and Mrs. Li, so he took the opportunity to seek freedom for Li Yuanqing.
The other villagers had no objection, and there was no way around it that Li Yuanqing was Old Man Li's son.
Old Man Li thought for a while, the reputation of exterminating the clan was too unpleasant, and Li Yuanqing was indeed his biological son, and no one could change this. "Yuanqing's branch is in the clan, but he is also in my branch. You can't divide it because of me."
If Zong goes out, Li Yuanqing will no longer be my son. After all, my son has made great achievements, how can I hand him over to others?"
Village Chief Li also thought about it, so that Li Yuanqing would still be bullied by the blood-sucking parents, "No, anyway, you just want Yuan Qing's filial piety, and you don't care about Yuan Qing. Let's do this. I, the patriarch, make the decision.
I will give you ten taels of silver every year as filial piety money, and you should not bother Yuan Qing with anything else."
Old Man Li thought that his son had not given him filial piety money for a long time. The son hated them in his heart and was poisonous. Maybe Li Yuanqing asked Li Changming to do this deliberately.
The mountains are high and the rivers are far away, and old man Li can't find Li Yuanqing, let alone the money given by Li Yuanqing. Instead of doing this, he might as well take the opportunity to get more filial money.
Thinking of this, Old Man Li snorted coldly and argued with reason, "My son is a fifth-grade military general. How can I get ten taels of silver to honor his parents? If it is less than twenty taels, I won't write a deed."
"Ten taels of silver, not even one tael more." Village Chief Li also had a firm attitude and tried his best to get the maximum benefit for Li Yuanqing. Even if Li Yuanqing had no money, he would pay for it on Li Yuanqing's behalf.
Old Man Li's eyes were burning and he wanted to refuse.
Seeing this, Old Mrs. Li quickly grabbed Old Man Li, lowered her voice and said in Old Man Li's ear: "The head of the house, since Yuan Qing got married, he only gave one tael of silver a year, and not even in the past two years. Like this
No matter how talented our son is, what can we do? We won’t get a single benefit. Besides, what if we wrote a deed? When we use Yuan Qing, we will say that we were forced.
, I have to write. We are still Li Yuanqing’s biological parents, and no one can change it!"
Thinking of this, Old Man Li actually felt that what his wife said made sense, "Okay, let's get the money first. That stubborn beater Yuan Qing might die in the northwest one day, and we can't even hope for it."
His filial piety.”
Mrs. Li reminded that she was particularly concerned about money, "Yes, but Yuan Qing is in the northwest and won't come back for a few years. Aren't Li Changming going to give money to Li Yuanqing? We will go back to our hometown after the Chinese New Year. It's not easy to go back and forth. Let him
Give us at least five years, otherwise we won't agree."
Old Man Li approved in his heart. He wanted ten years, but he also knew that was enough. Li Changming didn't have that much money. After thinking about it again and again, he looked at Village Chief Li.
"Ten taels of silver a year, but you must give me five years at a time. Once every five years." Old Man Li said solemnly, "If you give me the money, I will agree to Yuan Qing staying in Lijiacun."
Liu Pan'er nodded to Village Chief Li, this price is acceptable.
For the sake of her four children, Liu Paner decided to help the poor man Li Yuanqing so that he would not be exploited by his parents in the future.
Village Chief Li saw that Liu Pan'er had agreed, so he asked Old Man Li to come over and write a deed. Li Yuanqing would stay in the Li clan, but he would give his biological parents who had separated from the clan ten taels of silver per year and filial piety money for five years at a time.
Village Chief Li added a few words at the end: Li Yuanqing didn't care about anything other than his parents' funeral.
Old Man Li was not happy, but at the insistence of Village Chief Li, he signed and stamped his signature.
Old Man Li successfully took fifty taels of silver, and all the unhappiness in his heart disappeared.
After talking about this important matter, Old Man Li glanced at Old Mrs. Li and said that the money needed to raise two granddaughters was not suitable for him, the head of the family.
Mrs. Li was choking while looking at Mrs. Liu with angry eyes, "Liu Xiaohua, you want to reconcile, and my son agreed. After all, my family can't stop you. As an elder, I don't want to force it. However, my family
We have two granddaughters to give to us. Even if you sue the government, you won't win."
Mrs. Li saw Li Fang and Li Li standing behind Mrs. Liu. One was wearing purple clothes and the other was wearing green clothes. They were cute and cute. Even if they didn't sell them, they could talk well to them and get a high betrothal gift.
