When they came out of Ye Chuqiu's house, Lin Qingyun and his wife felt a little heavy. Although they had previously said in front of Ye Chuqiu that they would drive Wu Ming and the others away, at the critical moment, they were reluctant to leave.
After all, it feels really good to get something for nothing. Although their conscience will hurt, what is conscience compared to money? As long as they don't think about it, they can still live a stable and happy life.
"Yumei, who among us will talk later?"
Arriving at the door of his house, Lin Qingyun stopped and asked.
"Go ahead and tell me. You are a man. I am a womanizer, and I am related to them, so it's hard for me to speak." Li Youmei replied.
"Okay." Lin Qingyun nodded.
When the couple returned home, Wu Ming and others did not know where they had gone. The couple could only sit by the fire and wait for them to come back.
In the past, I just felt that the day passed very quickly, but today, I felt that time passed extremely slowly. The couple drank tea without a sip and struggled until dark. Wu Ming and the others finally came back.
"Sister, brother-in-law, why do you have the leisure to drink tea here today?"
Seeing the posture of Lin Qingyun and his wife, Wu Ming felt a twitch in his heart and had a bad premonition, so he walked over with a big smile and threw the things in his hands on the table, "I'm lucky today, I got some good cloths."
, give you two pieces to make some clothes for the girl."
Niu'er is a girl born to Li Dani. She is just one month old and has not yet been given a name. The family just calls her Niu'er.
"Cousin, please take these things back."
Li Youmei looked at the piece of floral cloth in front of her and said with difficulty.
"What's wrong?"
Wu Ming came over and sat down and asked. Two fellow villagers behind him also found chairs and sat down.
"Don't mention it."
Li Youmei waved her hand, "The things you did have spread throughout the village, and some people came to the door. My sister-in-law came here to warn us and asked us to drive you away."
"Cousin, you won't really listen to us and want to drive us away, right?" Wu Ming asked with a gloomy heart but a smile on his face.
"Cousin, I don't want to drive you away, but we can't help it. You know, we can settle in this village thanks to my sister-in-law. She said that if I don't drive you away, I will
Drive us away."
Li Youmei said something, then turned and glanced at Lin Qingyun, gesturing for him to speak.
Taking her hint, Lin Qingyun quickly replied, "Yes, yes, Yumei and I are really reluctant to let you go, but we can't help it. If we don't let you go, then our whole family will be kicked out."
, As you know, my daughter was just born, and the weather is freezing, so we have no place to go with our family, right?"
"You drag your family and your family with you, so our brothers will have somewhere to go, right?"
"It's just that when we first collected the money, you were very quick and easy. Now that there's a problem, you want to drive us away. How can there be such a good thing in the world?"
The two fellow countrymen behind Wu Ming turned their faces and said viciously.
Seeing the ferocious looks on their faces, as if they were about to kill them, Li Youmei couldn't help but be a little scared. How could she have forgotten that these people were robbers?
Although they were kind to her during this period, it could not change the fact that they were robbers. The sister-in-law was right, they should be driven away, otherwise, there is no telling what they would do in the future.
What should we do if they become cruel to our family?
"Hey, brothers, don't be angry. I'll talk to my cousin. She must be a reasonable person too."
Wu Ming stopped them and started to sing, "Cousin, you look at the freezing weather, and your brothers don't have anywhere to go, right? You can't bear to watch your brothers freeze to death, right? What's more?
, these two brothers are also right. During this period, whenever my cousin has gained something, when has your share been missing? You just build a shabby hut, with food and clothing, and as long as you have our share,
, you have a share, and now you are going to let us go with just one word, how can there be such a thing in the world?"
"Cousin, we really have no choice this time. You have to go whether you want to go or not. Even if you kill us all, you have to go."
Li Youmei steeled her heart and said: "As for the things you gave us before, we have also provided you with delicious food and drink during this period, provided you with food and accommodation, and made charcoal and hot water for you. You will not forget these.
Bar?"
"Cousin, it's pointless to talk about this. We are all relatives, and we both prosper and suffer." Wu Ming added.
"Cousin, it wasn't our husband and wife who asked you to leave, it was the people from Lin'an Village who asked you to leave. It was you who leaked the news!" Li Youmei said.
Hearing her words, Wu Ming, two fellow villagers, raised their eyebrows and glared at her. When people found out about this, did they leak the news? Or was it because Li Youmei was showing off in the village?
The two of them were about to speak, but Wu Ming turned his head to comfort them and motioned them to be silent. Then he turned back and said: "Cousin, in this case, my brother will not embarrass you, but it is freezing cold today.
Yes, we really have nowhere to go. The New Year is coming soon, how about you give us a few days of grace and let us wait until the New Year is over before leaving?"
"After the New Year, you will leave immediately?" Li Youmei confirmed.
"Yes, we will leave after the Chinese New Year and the first day of the Lunar New Year!" Wu Ming replied.
"Okay, if that's the case, then we agree." Lin Qingyun on the side said, "I'll go tell my sister-in-law right now."
As he said this, he tied his clothes tightly and went to Ye Chuqiu's house.
Ye Chuqiu listened to him tell what happened and said: "There are still seven or eight days before the Chinese New Year. None of us know what will happen in these seven or eight days. If you want to drive them away right away, my sister-in-law can help you."
If you insist on keeping them, my sister-in-law will not be able to sever ties with you just because of these seven or eight days. However, I must remind you that you must not be kind to poisonous snakes. It is a popular saying in our country that farmers and
I think you also know the story of the snake, and I don’t need my sister-in-law to explain it further.”
"I understand, sister-in-law, but they are Yumei's relatives after all. We can't do anything too extreme. Let's just let them leave after the Chinese New Year." Lin Qingyun said.
"That's up to you."
Ye Chuqiu waved to him tiredly, as if he didn't want to talk to him anymore. Lin Qingyun could only sigh and left in frustration.
In the evening, Wu Ming and others got together to drink. One of his fellow villagers said angrily: "Wu Ming, I think your cousin is really bad as a person. She is greedy and burns bridges. If it weren't for the fact that she is your cousin,
, I have long been rude to her."
"Yes, fortunately we were prepared in advance. Otherwise, where would the brothers go to stay after the New Year? Would they really be living on the streets?"
"Brothers, there's no need to be angry because of this woman. I have a plan in mind." Wu Ming slowly drank the wine in his glass and then said calmly, "Let's paralyze them first, and then do it before we leave."
One vote is all.”
After saying that, he asked the two of them to come over.
Wu Ming whispered to them for a while, and after he finished speaking, the two of them laughed, "Brother Angkor, you are still stronger and ruthless enough. The rabbits won't eat the grass beside the nest. You won't even let your own family go."
"Huh, what are we, our brothers? These days, as long as we three brothers are our own, the rest are not."
Wu Ming turned his hand, picked up the wine bottle on the table, and poured a glass for each of them, "Come on, let's not talk about this anymore, let's drink and drink."
