Two-quarters of an hour later, Mu Siyu sat in front of the stone table, refreshed, drinking steaming tea and eating crispy dried fruits.
Mrs. Tong wiped her hair with a towel.
Mu Siyu said she would come by herself, but Tong refused, saying that she had just been ill and had no strength.
Neither Zheng Shuyu nor Li Hongshu had ever experienced such ordinary but warm maternal love. Looking at this scene, they felt sour in their hearts.
"We've almost finished the tea, and you haven't said why you're here yet." Mu Siyu said, "Let me guess, is it related to me falling into the water?"
Li Hongshu nodded with a heavy face: "Yes. Do you know what happened today?"
"I don't know." Mu Siyu said calmly: "Just tell me why you came here! Although my fever has gone away, I am still very weak. I'm afraid I won't be able to sit for too long."
Li Hongshu gave an overview of today's events.
Tong, who was wiping Mu Siyu's hair, was stunned and said angrily: "You mean to say that my daughter fell into the water because someone from your family pushed her down?"
Lu Zhiyun, who was playing nearby, also heard it and glared at Li Hongshu and others angrily.
Zheng Shuyu was a little embarrassed.
It's okay for Li Hongshu to be implicated by his elder brother. She has nothing to do with Li Junhan and doesn't want to be implicated by him.
"Mom, don't be nervous." Mu Siyu patted the back of Tong's hand. "Go inside and rest for a while."
Doctor Zhu's voice came from inside: "Sister-in-law, please help me look for something, I can't find it."
Mrs. Tong walked back to the room unhappy.
"Xiaoyun'er, come here." Mu Siyu greeted Lu Zhiyun.
Lu Zhiyun came over with a pout and stared at Li Hongshu unhappily.
This aunt is so annoying!
"Xiao Yun'er, there are a lot of dried fruits and pastries in Mom's room. You and Erniu can take the things with you and go find your friends to play with!"
Xiao Yun'er is so generous that all the children in the village want to play with her, because in this way they can eat delicious snacks and dried fruits, and sometimes snacks made by Mu Siyu.
After dismissing the old man and the young man, Mu Siyu continued: "I don't know what happened. Even if I know, does it have anything to do with me? I have no grudges against Young Master Li, but he did this to me.
It can be seen that this person has evil intentions and often does things to bully the weak. Now that the government has investigated him, there is something wrong with him. Miss Li said such things to me, as if I had tampered with it, which is really ridiculous."
"My brother does have a problem. Sometimes I would rather not have this brother. I would rather have only one daughter in the Li family. Who says that daughters are not as good as men? But, he is my brother. This is an ironclad fact. My parents are because of him
This is also an ironclad fact. My brother is guilty and we are willing to compensate him, but can we spare him and give him another chance?"
"You should say these words to the county magistrate, not to me. All I can do is see how much Miss Li takes care of me on weekdays, and not care about what happened yesterday when she fell into the water."
"Boss Mu, do you dare to say that today's matter has nothing to do with Master Lu?" Li Hongshu was anxious.
"My husband is just a small registrar and does not have such great power. Miss Li is really worrying too much. How can ordinary people like us interfere in such a big matter?" Mu Siyu said with a cold face.
Zheng Shuyu grabbed Li Hongshu and shook his head at her.
If you continue to talk about it, the result will be the same. It will make her even more angry. What's the use of this?
Li Hongshu felt uncomfortable.
Even if she hates Li Junhan, he is still her brother.
Yes! He brought it upon himself, but how innocent are his parents?
"With all due respect, that brother of yours killed someone, and that was a human life!" Zheng Shuyu frowned: "Siyu is right, all she can do is not care about what happened yesterday. These things are beyond the control of a little woman like her.
.Perhaps you have misunderstood. Siyu’s husband is just a small registrar, how could he have such great power?"
"I fell into the water yesterday and my brother was arrested today. Is it a coincidence?"
It was quiet outside, and Mu Siyu opened the window to get some air.
Mrs. Tong came back and said, "Let's go."
"Let mother worry about it." Mu Siyu smiled.
"You said this is really a son-in-law..."
"Mom, your son-in-law would not do such a thing." Mu Siyu had no confidence when she said this.
"I'm afraid I can't fulfill this order for the Li family." Mrs. Tong said, "If I had known earlier, it would be better not to take it. Look at how much you have suffered for this order from the Li family."
"Nothing in life is smooth sailing. If nothing happens, just think of it as accumulating experience."
After returning to the city, Zheng Shuyu said goodbye to Li Hongshu and returned to his home.
She is still in a lot of mess, and she really has no time to care about the Li family's affairs. Li Hongshu can't listen to her advice now, so just let her go!
Li Hongshu went home in a carriage. When she arrived at the door of her house, she saw an old man wearing a Taoist robe walking over.
"Grandpa?" Li Hongshu called tentatively.
The old man turned back and looked at Li Hongshu: "Shu'er?"
"It's really grandpa!" Li Hongshu was pleasantly surprised: "You are finally back. We miss you so much! Grandpa, come home quickly."
Mrs. Li has returned home.
The backbone is also back.
Mr. Li and Mrs. Li first bowed to the old man, and then talked about Li Junhan's problem.
"Dad, you must save Han'er! Our Li family only has this one seedling!" Mr. Li said anxiously.
Old Mrs. Li stroked his beard and said, "I'll go find the county magistrate myself and see what he says."
"Thank you dad."
When Mrs. Li and Mr. Li left the house, Mrs. Li asked Li Hongshu about the progress there. Li Hongshu did not hide anything and explained everything in detail.
"If you hadn't been so kind and let such a woman come to work in our house, this thing wouldn't have happened. You, you, if your brother is okay this time, that's it. If something happens, it depends on whether your grandfather and your father will forgive you.
I'll spare you." Mrs. Li said angrily: "What a white-eyed wolf! He just fell into the water and didn't hurt his vitals, so he was going to kill him. How can there be such an ungrateful person in the world?"
Li Hongshu lowered her eyes.
Look! No matter how useless Li Junhan is, he is still the darling of the Li family.
The only root seedling of the Li family?
So what is she?
"If mother has no other instructions, I will go back first." Li Hongshu turned around and left without waiting for Mrs. Li to say anything.
Mrs. Li looked at her back and complained to the nanny next to her: "Look, she is embarrassing me. Isn't this her fault? It was she who brought that disaster star to the house."
