Chapter 42 The old Li family reappeared and left in despair
"That's my relative, Luo Bing, a cadre in the city. You were the one who spread the gossip in the village some time ago, right?"
Luo Bing's eyes dodge and he denies: "What are you talking about? I don't know, don't rely on me."
Li Rong said bitterly: "Why did you go to the countryside like a 38-year-old? Yang Debao doesn't want you anymore? That's right, I remembered it. During the Chinese New Year, Yang Debao said he broke up with you. This was just spreading his resentment.
Is it on me?"
"You!" Luo Bing was so touched by her that she hated him so much. If it weren't for Li Rong, how could Yang Debao draw a clear line with her?
Li Rong had no time to talk to her, so she pulled Hehua and left, completely ignoring Luo Bing jumping behind her.
Li Rong made shepherd's purse dumplings and cooked wild vegetable soup at night. She specially made a lot of dumplings and shared some with He Xing and Zhao Qingliu.
Zhao Qingliu and Li Dahai's house is not big. It is about two rooms and a small kitchen. So in summer, they can just build the walls, and the rest is to raise the beams and roof tiles.
It is a custom in Dajiang Village to make a banquet on the beam.
The couple had borrowed money to build the house, so Shangliang had no intention of making it big, but had to do it. Finally, they decided to set up a few tables, invite people from the old Zhao family, and some familiar neighbors, and then invite the village party secretary
Have a meal with those who build houses.
The wine should be placed next to the new house, and the boiler should be set up next to the house with no roof or beams.
It was Li Dahai who was cooking, and Li Rong and the others were waiting to eat, sitting under a tree nearby.
Lao Li's family knew that Li Dahai had built a new house, and his mind became active again. To be precise, his stepmother was thinking of causing trouble again.
Her stepmother dragged her father and shamelessly came to the house built by Li Dahai and sat down on the table in a swaggering manner.
He Xing was the first to see it. He pulled Li Rong's sleeve and motioned for her to look over.
Li Rong had never met Li Dahai's father and stepmother, so she thought they had invited the elderly couple to eat, and asked, "What's wrong?"
He Xingya whispered: "Those are the eldest sister's father-in-law and her step-mother-in-law."
"What?" Li Rong frowned, "Why are they here? Sister will definitely not ask them to come."
He Xing shook his head: "Who knows, those people in Lao Li's family are so shameless. They probably came here on their own after hearing the news."
Zhao Qingliu and his wife were so busy that they didn't notice it for a while.
Li Rong ran to tell Mother Zhao.
Zhao's mother was talking to several aunts, but her expression immediately dropped when she heard this: "Where are they? Why do they have the nerve to come? Let's go and take a look."
The old couple of the Li family were sitting on the table at the far side, their eyes constantly glancing at the bride's new house.
Mother Zhao walked over and said, "Why do you have the nerve to come?"
Li Dahai's stepmother had a shy face, and the wrinkles on her face wrinkled up when she smiled: "My mother-in-law, isn't this the beam of Dahai's new house? As parents, we can't explain it."
"Has the sea called you here?"
"Why should he come even if he doesn't ask us? We are his parents."
Zhao's mother laughed angrily: "Mom and dad? Why don't you subsidize the construction of a new house in Dahai?"
Li's mother said: "Dahai is rich, so we don't need us. I'm here to see if this house is well built. Isn't brother Dahai going to be dating next month? I plan to let the girl and brother Dahai see each other here."
Look at each other."
Li Rong was listening on the sidelines, her pupils widened like an earthquake, this stepmother is so shameless, how dare she think about it.
Mother Zhao was so angry that she couldn't speak. She looked around and finally found a broom in the corner. She ran over to pick it up and then ran back to greet Mother Li.
Mother Li's expression changed, she pulled Father Li to block her, and shouted loudly: "Daidai, Daidai, come quickly, your father has been beaten!"
When the busy couple heard Mother Li's voice, the smiles on their faces froze, and the couple saw disgust in each other's eyes.
Zhao Qingliu did not hide it and said: "Why is your stepmother here?"
"I don't know, let's go out and have a look."
When the two went out, they saw this scene:
Mother Zhao held up the broom and kept calling to Mother Li, but Mother Li kept hiding and blocking Father Li, so the broom almost fell on Father Li.
When Li Dahai saw Li Dahai coming out, Li's mother shouted: "Hai Dahai, you have figured it out! Look at what you, mother-in-law, have done!"
Li Dahai pursed his lips into a straight line: "Why are you here?"
"We heard that your new house is going to be renovated, and your parents will definitely come over to serve the wine."
Li Dahai's temples were bulging, and his face was extremely pale.
Mother Li seemed to have lost sight of it, and said, "Your brother is going to see the girl next month. Remember to leave a room for him here?"
When Zhao Qingliu heard this, he immediately rushed out, pointed outside and shouted: "Get out! How long are you going to bully us? And give him a room? You have kicked us out, how can you have the nerve to say such things?
Get out!"
"Please take care of your wife, Dahai, why are you talking to your parents?"
Li Dahai hugged his collapsed wife and said with trembling lips: "Go away if I tell you."
Mother Li's eyes widened: "What did you say?"
Zhao Qingsong and the others came back just in time. When they saw the old couple of the Li family, they knew what was going on without even thinking about it. There was a flash of disgust in their eyes: "Auntie, I still have the bill for Tiezhu's medicine. When are you going to pay?
?”
When it came to money, Li's mother didn't dare to jump around. Moreover, Zhao Qingsong looked irritable and the village party secretary also came. She dragged Li's father away dejectedly.
During the meal, Zhao Qingliu's face was still not good, and he said sadly: "Why did she come here again? She really wants to kill me."
Li Rong comforted her: "Ignore them, eldest sister, they don't dare to do anything. If they dare to make trouble again, they will have to make things clear to her even if they break off the relationship."
Zhao Qingliu sighed: "It's easy to say severing the relationship, but which one can really sever it."
When the grown men gathered around the table, they inevitably drank. Zhao Qingsong had been a soldier. The village party secretary and the others loved talking to Zhao Qingsong. They drank a lot of rice wine.
After the meal was finished, Li Rong helped clear the table and looked at Zhao Qingsong in a daze, as if he was drunk. She said hello to Zhao's mother and the others and took Zhao Qingsong home first.
Passing by a reed field, I suddenly heard intermittent and ambiguous groaning sounds.
Li Rong and Li Rong were both familiar with it, so they knew what the sound was when they heard it.
It's not dark yet, who is so bold?
Li Rong's face turned red. Zhao Qingsong reached out and covered Li Rong's ears, pulling her away at a faster pace.
"Who is running in the reed field in broad daylight?" Li Rong asked strangely.
Zhao Qingsong blew the wind for a while, and his head was no longer so dizzy. When he heard the sound, the corners of his mouth raised, and he didn't know what he was thinking. He whispered: "Who knows, let's try it next time."
Li Rong glared at him: "Who wants to follow you into the reed field?"
Really, aren’t you comfortable on the kang at home?
Li Rong stamped her feet: "Don't drink next time, or talk nonsense when you're drunk!"
