"Go and call Patriarch Lu." He turned around and scanned the four little ones one by one, and Li Tannian's eyes finally fell on Sanya.
Sanya was a little surprised, but she still ran away waving her short legs.
When Mrs. Yang heard that Li Tannian had invited Patriarch Lu, she felt proud and became more and more reluctant.
"How pitiful, my God, why is my son so miserable? Why did he marry such a thing?"
After Mrs. Yang finished cursing, the crowd suddenly fell silent. She was feeling strange when she suddenly heard a loud voice.
"What kind of thing! Your son is half dead. My daughter's marriage to him will be regarded as a blessing to your ancestors. What else do you want! What kind of good thing do you think you are!"
In the crowd, Lin Yueniang, wearing a crimson jacket, squeezed over.
Li Tannian was briefly surprised for a moment, and then the original owner, his biological mother, Lin Yueniang, glared at her with an angry look. He said with a bit of hatred: "Look who you married! Forget it if a man does that, and he is a spoiled brat of the whole family. Now,
You must have been bullied!"
Everyone looked strange when they heard this, and even Dabao and the others couldn't help but look at Mrs. Yang and Lu Zhi'er.
How could this woman be bullied? The injured ones were obviously Mrs. Yang and her mother-in-law!
Mrs. Yang was obviously angered by the thief Lin Yueniang's words about catching the thief. For a moment, she didn't care about crying out in pain and sat up from the ground.
"Lin Yueniang, please show me how it was your daughter who hit someone, why did we bully her?"
Lin Yueniang sneered: "She hit you? She hit you there! My daughter has been stupid and timid since she was a child, but she doesn't have the brains to hit people. If you say she hit you, show me your injuries!"
Mrs. Yang was exhausted.
Li Tannian didn't hit him on the face at all. The injury was on his heart, where could anyone see it?
Lin Yueniang only said that she had a guilty conscience, and then said: "You old pious woman! When Lu Sanlang came back from injury in the county, the master's family paid twelve taels of silver! This money was to be paid to Sanlang for treatment, but you
It's better if you hold on to the money and don't lose it. How can you be so evil-hearted as to cut off your son's livelihood like this!"
There were murmurs of discussion all around.
Mrs. Yang looked around and hesitated: "Wouldn't it cost money to marry your daughter? This woman is a prodigal. Who knows where she spent her money!"
"I don't see any gift money from you. Besides, if you really gave her a penny, she would still be able to wear such shabby clothes!"
As Lin Yueniang said this, she looked at Li Tannian angrily. The more she looked at her, the angrier she became. She wished she could be scolded for marrying someone like Lu Zhi!
"Yes, grandma never gave stepmother a penny!"
"Yes, yes, grandma has never invited a doctor to treat daddy."
Dabao and Erbao spoke at the same time. As soon as Patriarch Lu came over, he heard these words and his face suddenly changed.
In the past, he didn't understand the situation and didn't want to get involved in the Lu family's affairs.
After all, neither Lu Zhi’s wife nor Lu Zhiniang have any good intentions, and they are not easy to get along with!
But Lu Zhi's wife rescued his grandson, and Mrs. Yang really went too far, so he had to take care of it!
With a straight face, Patriarch Lu said solemnly: "Ms. Lu Yang, are you really greedy for Lu Zhi's life-saving money and why don't you ask for a doctor?"
Mrs. Yang felt a little guilty, but she still said plausibly: "Mr. Lu, please don't listen to their nonsense. If I had left them alone and kicked them out long ago, would they still be able to live in these three rooms?"
"Those three rooms were originally owned by your brother-in-law who died of plague. Not to mention it is unlucky. The roofs are all open. Why don't you live there yourself?" Lin Yueniang sneered.
People in the village look at each other, right?
Isn’t this just driving people out?
"What nonsense are you talking about! Lu Zhi is my son, can I not feel bad for you? But you, Lin Yueniang, what on earth do you have in mind, can I not know? According to me, you just want to deceive my son with Li Tannian.
money!"
Elder Patriarch Lu couldn't stand listening anymore: "Just tell me, do you have those twelve taels of silver in your hands?"
Mrs. Yang turned her head and said nothing. Lu Zhier's eyes moved and she hurriedly came over.
"Uncle Lu, the patriarch, you don't know something. My mother didn't do it for the sake of those four children. When the escort agency sent my third brother back, he said that he was probably hopeless. In this case, these four children will not be saved.
The money is wasted, it would be better to use it on four children."
"Yes, yes! My Jia Zhi'er is right!"
Mrs. Yang regained her fighting spirit: "Li Tannian married into the Lu family clearly just for money. If this compensation money falls into her hands again, I guarantee that she will run away with the wild man before tomorrow."
"Ha!" Li Tannian was a little funny, "In that case, just give the money to Patriarch Lu."
"What!" Mrs. Yang looked fierce.
Everyone was a little puzzled. In the past, Li Tannian often made trouble with Mrs. Yang in order to get back the twelve taels of silver.
Now, she actually wants to give the money to the clan leader.
Apart from the fact that Li Tannian hated his mother-in-law, they really couldn't think of any other reason.
Lin Yueniang was also a little surprised.
She opened her mouth, but before she could speak, Li Tannian said calmly: "Then give the money to the clan leader for safekeeping temporarily. When Lu Zhi wakes up, the clan leader will return it to him."
"Are you kidding me? Saburo is half buried in the earth. How can he still wake up? Aren't you just throwing money into the water?"
Mrs. Yang was so angry that she realized something was wrong only after saying this.
"How could you curse your own son like this? Sanlang is also your biological child after all."
"Isn't that right? Lu Zhi's wife just asked the clan leader to keep it temporarily. Why are you in such a hurry? Is it possible that you really want to keep this money for yourself?"
People in the village were talking a lot. Mother-in-law Yang, her mother-in-law, and her daughter-in-law were so angry that their faces turned blue, and their hearts, liver, spleen, and lungs began to hurt.
Patriarch Lu thought about it several times, and finally nodded, and asked Mrs. Yang to hand over the money, and asked someone to prepare paper and pen to write the document in front of so many people.
The money that goes into her pocket is her own money. How can Mrs. Yang take it out?
She almost walked out without thinking, but before she could take a few steps, she was blocked by the villagers, so she lay down on the ground and started to pretend to be faint.
Everyone then looked at Lu Zhi'er. Lu Zhi'er shook his head repeatedly: "My parents are in charge of the family's money. I don't know anything!"
Patriarch Lu immediately asked people to find Lu Changhe.
Lu Changhe was fished out while he was still in the field. After hearing everything, he felt ashamed and immediately agreed to hand over the money.
This made Mrs. Yang very angry.
She didn't even bother pretending to be dizzy, she jumped up and pointed at Lu Changhe's nose and cursed.
After all the fuss, Lu Changhe and Mrs. Yang did not dare to compete with the entire Lu family, so they had to grit their teeth and give the money to Patriarch Lu.
Patriarch Lu received the money and handed the written receipt to Li Tannian.
This move immediately angered Mrs. Yang again.
Mrs. Yang put her hands on her hips and continued to shout, when she saw Li Tannian handing the receipt directly to Lu Dabao.
For a moment, the whole audience was in mourning.
Patriarch Lu saw this and nodded secretly, feeling a little ashamed.
If he had many opinions about Li Tannian before, then from this moment on, those opinions have completely disappeared.
Lu Zhi is such a nice wife, she really cares about the four children.
"In that case, let's go." Patriarch Lu nodded to Li Tannian and led the people away.
Mrs. Yang stared at the paper deed in Lu Dabao's hand without saying a word.
"Why did you bring the matter to this point? It's not embarrassing!" Lu Changhe gave his wife a reproachful look.
"Why is this happening? I can't blame you for finding a good wife for the third child!" Mrs. Yang gritted her teeth and glanced at Li Tannian.
"You've got a bargain but you still behave! If you dare to continue making trouble, I will take my daughter to the ancestral hall!" Lin Yueniang stood in front of Li Tannian.
Mrs. Yang hated her so much, but she didn't dare to say anything more!
Going to the ancestral hall is not a trivial matter. Even if she is unwilling to do so, it has been decided and there is no use in talking about it!
She could just wait and see what happens, since Sanlang wouldn't wake up anyway, she would have to find a way to get that money back sooner or later!
"Li Tannian, don't get too proud too early!" Mrs. Yang snorted and walked out.
Lu Changhe looked at his daughter-in-law, and then at the four sallow little faces. It would be impossible to say that he was not touched at all.
But since his son is gone, what does these people have to do with him!
He is old and no longer has the energy to take care of this.
Seeing that the Lu family had all left, Lin Yueniang turned back and stuffed a cloth bag into Li Tannian's face with a cold face.
"Look what kind of people this family is, how could they have given birth to a blind person like you, who regards the fire pit as the road to prosperity!"
After scolding, Lin Yueniang walked away.
Li Tannian frowned. She had never been pointed out like this before. Even though this person was the original mistress, she was also a little unhappy.
After she pinched the hard objects that looked like copper plates in the bag, she opened the purse with a sullen face, and suddenly her whole body froze again.
This cloth bag actually contained a large bag full of copper plates!
