"Pei, you shameless loser, you shouldn't have been soft-hearted back then, you should have drowned yourself in the water, even raising a pig can be exchanged for a few taels of silver, raising your family can only make eight taels of silver a year. You still have the face to say that I'm heartless."
Liu Qi's method of settling accounts really stunned this girl who had grown up in a peaceful era.
Seeing her speechless, Liu Qi smiled.
He raised his poker once again, wanting to beat up Liu Sangui.
Liu San Gui turned his head and gave her a bitter smile: "Dad is fine, let Your Milk's anger dissipate, and everything will be fine."
Liu Dao Xiang suddenly regretted her impulsive actions. It was because she could not bear to see Liu Qi's wife, but because of her willfulness, she got Liu San Gui to pay for her.
Let Liu Qi be cheap, let her trample on his dignity as a person. Perhaps in his mind, he thought that his mother was his mother, his mother for life.
But Liu Dao Xiang's heart was filled with guilt, she should not have ignored the consequences and implicated these so-called family members.
She had even thought about how to break up with Liu Qi before leaving this house and make herself a single family. With that beast 007, if she had a few more fresh meat companions at that time, she would also be able to live a good life.
It was just that Liu Qiuxiang's heartache, Liu Sangui's protection, and Zhang Guihua's anger had all added shackles on her body. If she were to leave, these people would probably be very sad.
Seeing that the poker was about to land on Liu San Gui's body, Liu Qiuxiang laid under Liu San Gui's armpit and trembled, as if a chicken that had just come out of its shell had met its natural enemy.
Liu Dao Xiang quickly thought about it and when she thought about the dishes on the table in the morning, she opened her mouth saying, "Milk, as long as you don't hit dad, I guarantee that you will go up the mountain and dig up some wild vegetables every day. If you hit my dad again, it would be as easy as killing me, not thinking about me digging up some wild vegetables, and not thinking about my sister helping out with household chores."
Liu Xiaolan heard the two of them conversing inside the house, so she quickly stood up and called out for her mother.
Liu Qi pampered her daughter to the point that her eyes were like eyeballs. Hearing her shout, she turned her head and smiled at her: "Lan Er, what's wrong?"
Liu Xiaolan was practically the same as Liu Qi, which was one of the reasons why Liu Qi was biased towards her.
Mother, don't be angry anymore, Dao Xiang knows that she was wrong, furthermore, she agreed to go to the back mountain and dig for wild vegetables, as you have seen previously, Bao Er did not even eat a mouthful of food before dragging Second Sister-in-Law back into the house.
Only now did Liu Qi realize that while everything was going on, Liu Sun had already left with his good grandson, and the two bowls of white rice did not even touch.
Liu Xiaolan became spoiled again: "Mother, let Dao Xiang go dig for some wild vegetables, your daughter wants to eat them too. Everyday, I eat soy sauce and eat until my daughter's face turns yellow."
Liu Qi felt that what her daughter said was reasonable, and thought back to how Liu Dao Xiang was ruthlessly flung around by her yesterday and didn't die!
Her heart ached so much that she couldn't sleep well for one night. She thought that after feeding her daughter for so many years, she was unable to get even a single tael of silver. Just the food of Liu Sangui's family of five was enough for her to feed five fat pigs a year and exchange for seven to eight taels of silver.
The more she thought about it, the more her heart ached. She originally wanted to get a egg soup for her youngest grandson, but she just didn't cook it.
Wasn't the reason why she was tormenting herself like that just now because she wanted to save that egg from Liu Zhibao's mouth?
It was just that, Liu Sun's father was a butcher who specifically killed pigs for others, so the meat of his family was not lacking at all.
Liu Qi glanced sideways at Liu Sangui's family, then flung away the poker in his hand in disgust, turned around, and walked into the house.
Liu Xiaolan carefully walked over to Liu San Gui's side and said: "Third brother, you've suffered a lot. You're right, mother has a lot of face, you should have let Dao Xiang say those words earlier, then everything would have been fine."
Liu Dao Xiang was so angry that she rolled her eyes. She had gained intelligence from this setback, and decided to switch to another tactic. Before she herself did not have the ability to protect her family, she could not be so stupid as to draw aggro from her family.
So, even though she knew that Liu Xiaolan was just pretending, she still maintained her silence, clenching her little hands tightly. If she was given another three months, she would definitely bring her family out of this house that was full of depression.
"Lan Er, come in for dinner."
Liu Qi's face looked like a sky in March, changing at any moment, you could see, previously, she really wanted to eat to the point where she didn't even want to puke, but now, she was calling Liu Xiaolan so gently that it gave people goosebumps.
Liu Xiaolan stood up with a smile, and first answered Liu Qi: "Mother, I'm coming. Dao Xiang, quickly don't stand under the roof and take the rain. It's cold outside, you should come in and eat breakfast first."
The last sentence was for Liu Dao Xiang to hear.
Liu Dao Xiang held up her rice bowl that only had two pieces of sweet potato left, and secretly cursed: Horse Shooting Cannon, what a work.
The Liu family was not poor, at least they still had white rice to eat, but all of these, Liu Dao Xiang's family did not have a share.
Ever since Liu Xigui, Liu Rengui and his brother went to the provincial capital together, and after one of them found a job in the town, the 30 mu of water farm work and 10 mu of dry land were all placed on the shoulders of Liu Dafu and his third son, Liu Sanguan.
Liu Xiaolan did not go down to work since shesheas young, nor did she do housework. When she had nothing to do, he would just take a flower shed and weave a few flowers, and then send some people to the town to exchange for some loose ends.
All of the household chores were handled by Zhang Guihua, and ever since she was born and unable to go down, Liu Qi's face had always been black, but luckily Liu Qiuxiang took control of the chores later on.
After breakfast, Liu Dao Xiang helped Liu Qiuxiang clean up the table, and also washed up the dishes.
"Second sister, let's go to the back of the mountain to gather some wild vegetables. It just rained, so those old officials should have sprouted. They just so happened to dig us up for a cold dressing."
Old official?
Liu Dao Xiang thought back to it for a long time and finally recalled that it was a type of plant with heart shaped leaves and sawtooth edges.
She didn't feel anything when she passed by, but when she heard Liu Qiuxiang swallowing her saliva, she couldn't help but to turn and look at him.
Liu Qiuxiang said somewhat embarrassedly: "It's been a while since I've eaten vegetables, every day I've been eating soy sauce, now I want to pick up a handful and put it in my mouth to chew."
Liu Dao Xiang felt that this was an opportunity.
Yesterday, Beast 007 specifically emphasized that she only had a month's buffer period.
First, she had to use her local resources to dig up the first pot of gold.
Liu Sangui and Zhang Guihua definitely wouldn't be able to count on her. Liu Qi was like a goose that got plucked out of its feathers, and her family had already been dug out by her to the point where they didn't even have a single copper coin.
Right now, the only thought in her mind was to take off her only worn out clothes, change into a clean set of clothes, take a hot bath, and take the first step towards her dream.
While Liu Dao Xiang was in a daze, Liu Qiuxiang had already taken out her machete.
"Second sister, let's go."
She noticed that the rain outside had stopped, and went to the back of the mountain to find something to eat.
Liu Dao Xiang carried her small basket and walked out of the Liu family courtyard. Seeing that the regular courtyard gradually became a part of the scenery in the painting, she then said to Liu Qiuxiang: "Sis, our family is obviously rich, why are you wearing tattered clothes?"
Liu Qiuxiang looked around nervously before she patted her back gently, "You're courting death. If you speak in such a loud voice, won't you skin all of your body's skin off if I let the two girls hear you?"
Liu Dao Xiang thought that she had a rather aggrieved cheat, so why was his family doing better than they are now, especially that unreasonable, top quality grandmother.
She had been thinking about splitting up from the start.
Didn't the novel already say so?
He would set a trap for the old woman before he mentioned the matter of splitting up the family.
Afterwards, she looked up at the sky in speechlessness. It was easy to say, but it was harder than doing it in the clear sky!
Liu Dao Xiang felt that she was just an extremely normal person, so she really didn't know anything about scheming.
"Sis, you already know that our mother is a mischievous person, why didn't our father tell you that we split up our family?"
At first, Liu Qiuxiang was silent, but then she said, "Uncle and uncle's entire family are not here, and Fourth Uncle has been studying outside for a long time. Only when they are collecting rice will Teacher give him half a month leave to return home, but Fourth Uncle will have to become an official in the future, so he cannot do his work in the fields, or else Fourth Uncle's studies will be delayed. When he fails to become an Elementary Scholar, he will definitely look after our family for the rest of his life."
Liu Dao Xiang really wanted to swear violently, which also meant that Mrs Liu Qi knew Liu Sanguan's character very well, and knew that he was kind, so it was impossible for him to abandon his old parents and live alone with his wife and children.
"Sis, do you think our milk is good for you? "Why do I feel like our milk doesn't like us?"
The Roman Empire was not built in a single day. Liu Dao Xiang thought it through, if she really wanted Liu San Gui to agree to splitting up, then she had to brainwash her and her family, and change their current mindset, so that Liu San Gui and the others would feel that taking care of the old man in the family is not his responsibility alone.
Liu Qiuxiang's voice sounded muffled, "Ever since I could remember, my mother had always said that our father was not a material for studying, and did not allow our father to go out and look for a job to earn some money. She said that our father was an honest and honest man, who could easily be tricked until his underpants were gone."
Speaking of which, Liu Qi's insight was rather sharp. With that Amitabha like Liu Sangui, it was easy for him to be tricked.
"My dad and mom are good enough at milk, right? They go up the mountain day and night to cut down trees and plant seedlings in the fields. Sis, tell me, do you think our parents have done enough?"
Liu Qiuxiang's brain was a little tangled, she had no confidence in beating him up, she could only look at Liu Dao Xiang's clear and clear eyes, but she could not help but say honestly: "Un, Father and Mother are really tired, that's why I learned to do housework early. Look, I can now chop the pig grass, feed the chickens, and even prepare breakfast well, cleaning up the house."
Saying that, Liu Qiuxiang's face revealed a smile that belonged to her age.
"Second sister, in the future, you just need to help mother take care of our third sister. Big sister will definitely do things very diligently, let Little Milk not scold us a little."
After talking for a while, he returned to the original point.
Liu Dao Xiang wanted to spit out her tongue and take a breath, why are you bullying people like that?
She guided him for a long time, but it was all nonsense.
The back of the mountain was actually, in the words of the moment, a hilly landscape. From a distance, here was a patch of green, there was a bit of black, and the birds were chirping, and the grass was struggling to break free of the mud and to get out of the ground.
