C1 causal factor

Great Zhou Dynasty, 30 Li Village.

Today, the heavenly lord was not in a good mood. Dark clouds were rolling in the gloomy sky, and the sound of spring thunder was resounding.

The originally pitch black sky of the village was torn open, illuminating the entire village.

At this moment, along with the rumbling of thunder, a voice suddenly sounded out, "Pah! You dead hen, you won't call a chicken lord if you know how to cackle. What use is her mother?"

She was scolding the local dialect, calling a chicken a male or a rooster. The chances of hatching were much less than that of a hen, and scolding a woman for not giving birth to a son.

It was a woman around forty years old with a slightly pointed chin and a tight frown on her forehead. She was dressed in a silk dress that had been washed very cleanly, and was standing in front of the main house with a broom and scolding people. The scolding direction was towards the West Side Room, and her hands were still slender and clean.

Liu San Gui had thick eyes and looked like an honest man. At this moment, he was begging his mother and father in a low voice: "Mother, lower your voice. Gui Hua Hua is just born prematurely and is still weak."

"You useless thing, can't you say that you're my wife? He had gone against the heavens! You just gave birth to a useless little girl, and then you should have drowned in a foot-basin, acted as a treasure, and opened your mouth to eat, eat, and eat. The food at home cannot be used to raise this kind of loser, what's the use of it? "

No one had ever dared to challenge Liu Qi's authority in his family.

Liu Sangui's begging didn't get anything in return. Not only that, it caused Liu Qi's heart to burn with anger.

"If I had known earlier, I would have gone through a bowl of yellow soup and thrown it away."

"Mother, please don't scold me. The child's mother is prematurely born now, her health is not good, and Dao Xiang's forehead is smashed because of this. Mother, please give me a small handful of white rice and let me boil some porridge for the two of them to drink."

In Liu Sanguan's heart, there were two fresh lives waiting for him.

But in the eyes of Liu Qi, they were two bottomless pits that needed to be filled for who knows how many years, not to mention the dowry they had to place on their wedding.

Those were all money. Thinking of this, Liu Qi's heart was bleeding.

Just then, Liu San Gui's sister Liu Xiaolan came over with a blush on her cheeks.

She was wearing a short, light green floral jacket and a pleated skirt embroidered with white magnolia flowers. She walked over carefully with small steps, afraid that the mud on the stairs outside would dirty her skirt.

"Third brother, why do you have the nerve to ask for the white rice? Do you think the white rice came from the wind? Furthermore, it is not that Third Sister-in-Law's first time producing such expensive things, in my opinion, you should do your best to pamper her. Do you really think that she is a young miss from a rich family? "

Liu Xiaolan was raised to be very delicate by Liu Qi, her ten fingers were not touched by the Yang Spring Water, and every day at home, she would embroider flowers to flutter the butterflies, living like a rich girl.

Liu Qi was already in a rage, but being provoked by Liu Xiaolan, he immediately scolded in a high-pitched voice, "Hurry up and throw that small loser into the bucket and drown him. No matter what, he hasn't come to this world to suffer, he should have reincarnated earlier if he had died earlier."

Not only did he not finish the sentence, he cursed again at the unlucky fellow!

Seeing that she was about to turn around and leave, he hurriedly reached out his hand and pulled her away. "Mother, you can't be like this. The child has just been born, how can it endure this kind of torture? No matter what, she's still your granddaughter."

"Are you courting death? Why aren't you letting me go?" Liu Qi picked up the broom in his hand and smashed the broom hard on the back of his hand. The originally rough back of his hand immediately became swollen like a piece of meat.

"Ha! I'm really blind. I shouldn't have raised you to such a big age. Look at you, you have no conscience, yet you forget about your parents after having a wife. How can you be such a filial son?" "F * cking hell, why did he not shut the door? He let a little mouse sh * t spoil a pot of good porridge in my house."

Liu Qi was like a village ancestor cursing and swearing. Words that sounded awful came out of her mouth nonstop, yet didn't carry any weight.

She was short, her skin was wrinkled like a thin kitten's, and her heart felt even more uncomfortable. Unknowingly, she had the courage of a leopard and reached out to stop Liu Qi, "Mother, I'll work even more diligently in the future. I'll take all the heavy jobs in the family, I just want to give Mother a small handful of white rice."

Hearing that, Liu Xiaolan turned her head, and extended her slender finger to point at Liu Sanguan: "Third brother, you are so biased, it was not easy for mother to raise us, you actually sent mother to serve Third Sister-in-Law's son, where is heaven?"

Hearing that, Liu Qi lightly touched the back of Liu Xiaolan's head and said with a doting look on her face, "Is it still my family's daughter that dotes on you?"

The implication of his words was that Liu Sangui wasn't a filial son.

It was not that Liu San Gui did not see Liu Xiaolan's delicate hands, but he had gotten used to it. Liu Xiaolan had been raised like this since childhood, and using Liu Qi's words, Liu Xiaolan had to be pampered since a young age, so he did not think much about Liu Xiaolan never did household chores.

"Father!"

Liu Sanguan turned his head and saw her eldest daughter, Liu Qiuxiang, carefully hiding behind a wooden pillar. Her clothes were completely patched up and her slim figure was shivering in the spring rain.

"I'm not dead yet, what are you, a shameless money-loser, crying for?" Liu Qi glared viciously at Liu Qiuxiang.

"Mother!" The child is worried about her mother and her sister. " Liu Sangui opened his mouth, and under Liu Qi's angry gaze, his voice finally became softer and softer.

Liu Xiaolan was eager to see the world in chaos, she continued: "Third brother, you are serious, see which woman in the village doesn't directly go down to work after finishing the production, and only you, the most pampered person in the village, have a look, see what kind of virtue you have, your entire body is filled with a petty attitude."

"San Gui, tell your wife to get up later to make dinner." Liu Qi became even angrier, cursing even more harshly, "You're also a useless thing, hanging your head on His wife's body all day long. You won't be able to think about it just by eating it!"

"Mother!" Liu Sangui's face turned red.

"Don't call me mother, I don't have an unfilial son like you. Tell me, I shouldn't have toiled for you when it was early in the morning and dark in the night, one or two of them only know how to sleep, eat and sleep, if not ask for money then ask for food. I have truly committed a sin in my previous life, I will only owe you this life."

Liu Qi cursed as he prepared to walk back into the house.

Liu Xiaolan pretended to follow behind Liu Qi slowly, and when she passed by Liu Sanguan, she said softly: "Mother means for Third Sister-in-Law to stop pretending, and quickly get up to do household chores. You should quickly come down and think of a way, Mother will give you a spoonful of rice."

Liu Sanguan looked gratefully at her, his heart filled with gratitude. He felt that his own little sister had a sharp tongue and a rotten heart.

"Mom, let Gui Hua rest for a few days. She was born prematurely and injured."

How could Liu Sanguan be so heartless? Madam Liu Qi was still angry, how could he say the words that pitied his wife?

"Father, I can help mother do housework." Liu Qiuxiang's thin and weak voice came from behind the wooden pillar. She was afraid of Liu Qi, and in her heart, Liu Qi's words represented the words of the Liu Family's elders.

Liu Qiuxiang was already nine years old this year, and Liu Xiaolan was younger than her by two years. In her eyes, Liu Qiuxiang was a master at household chores.

She had achieved her goal, so she tried to persuade Liu Qi, "Mother, since Qiuxiang has said it, I think she won't go back on her words. Mother, why don't you give Third Bro some rice?

Liu Qiuxiang, who was behind the wooden pillar, was extremely surprised that Liu Xiaolan would speak up for her. In her impression, Liu Xiaolan was someone who was very difficult to get along with.

Liu Qiuxiang didn't really understand what "establishing a rule" was. She only faintly felt that if he listened to Liu Xiaolan's words, she and her little sister would have less of an impact with their ears.

Liu Qi's gaze flickered, then looked at Liu Qiuxiang and said, "He is called Chun Xiang."

Liu San Gui was immediately overjoyed, and quickly thanked his mother for giving the three daughters a name.

He did not understand why Liu Qi suddenly agreed, but Liu Qiuxiang understood what she was thinking, it was just that she still felt happy in her heart, at least, her third sister's life was saved, she did not need to be thrown into the back mountain after drowning again.

"Milk, I will work very hard."

"Yes." Mrs Liu Qi was very pleased with her attitude. She turned around and said to Liu Sangui, "When your wife can land, I'll go with you to the back of the village and pull up those weeds."

It seemed like Liu Sanguan had gotten some benefits, because Liu Qi kindly told Liu Xiaolan to scoop up half a bamboo tube of rice and give it to him.

In reality, Liu Sanguan had spent two adults working together with Liu Qiuxiang to help with the household chores in exchange for half a bamboo tube of rice.

Liu Xiaolan was also very satisfied, there was another little girl she could order around at home, and she no longer needed to hide.

"Mother, can you help me see how well these flowers are embroidered?" I've already spoken with the Lady Boss of the embroidery workshop in the town. Once we've finished embroidering we'll send it over to her and even praised my embroidery skills to be more and more advanced. I feel that I can definitely raise the price again next time. "

Madam Liu Qi's voice was no longer as rough as it was a moment ago. She said gently to Liu Xiaolan, "Lan Er, your beauty is getting better and better, if you practice any more, it will be even more harmful than your mother's. All the noble ladies in the city like the smart little girl."

Liu Xiaolan was still a little worried: "Mother, do you think the Huang Family will really come to pick girls?"

"The Huang family often needs to buy some girls to enter the mansion, but more have died."

"Then mother still wants her daughter to go?"

"Don't worry, your uncle is a housekeeper there!"

Mrs Liu Qi's original name was Qi Ruier, she was a member of the famous Wealthy families in the provincial capital ? Huang Family. She was originally the close Eldest lass in front of the Huang Family's Eldest Young Madam, and was very cute and adorable.
