Chapter 125:
Li Zhenzhu was still clamoring a few days ago, but now she’s completely done for, finally seeing reality clearly!
She also realized that people still need power and money.
With a blank expression, she watched her mother’s nauseating behavior, utterly disappointed with these selfish things at home.
A flash of malice in her eyes, who knows what abacus she’s scheming!
Li Lei huddled in the straw, silent and cold.
Thinking of the interrogation a few days ago and those moves used, which made him lose all face!
“Pah! I heard he’s still a Tong Sheng from Donglin Academy, too cowardly!”
The prison guard dragged him in and threw him into the prison cell, spat, and the sound of ridicule entered his ear.
Parents picked him up, Mother wailed.
Secretly vowing that once he became an official, he would make these two scum pay!
While eating, Luo Zhi’er was careful today, a slight mistake could lead to being gossiped about.
Mother and daughter ate in the kitchen!
They were eating with relish when someone outside called her!
“San Mao’s Wife, San Mao’s Wife, are you home?”
Hearing the call, Luo Zhi’er quickly stood up, wiped her mouth, and went out.
It turned out to be Zhao Er’s Wife again, one doesn’t hit a smiling face,
“Yo! What evil wind blew Aunt Huaihua here?
“Hm?”
“Hehe, does Aunt Huaihua have any business with me?”
Luo Zhi’er smiling, Zhao Er’s Wife’s heart relaxed, must have misheard.
She lifted her foot to enter the main hall but was blocked by Luo Zhi’er.
“Auntie, if you have words, say them at the doorway!”
“Aiyo, San Mao’s Wife, you are home? Auntie called you several times with no response, Auntie thought you went out again!”
“Hehe, nothing like that! But, Aunt Huaihua thought I wasn’t home, so why sneak into the house?”
“Hehe, you didn’t lock the door, right? Auntie came to check the situation, things get stolen in the village all the time, not very peaceful!”
“So this is for my own good?”
Aunt Huaihua shrugged!
“Of course!”
This person’s face thicker than city walls, yesterday she gloated the most, even acted as witness?
Aunt Huaihua’s eyes scanned the house, seeming to smell some amazing fragrance!
Immediately shrieking: “No wonder you ignored my calls, hiding at home sneaking bites!”
Her mouth puckered a few times!
Luo Zhi’er gave her a cold look, does this person have a dog’s nose?
“Auntie, say your business, I Luo Zhi’er eating my own meal made by myself at my own home, what kind of sneaking is that?”
Zhao Er’s Wife choked, unhappy!
Just like last time, retorting her, this Luo Zhi’er! Like seeing a ghost!
“Yo! Look at that mouth of yours, really doesn’t spare people!”
Inner thoughts:
That old woman Zhou Shi not home, you dare eat the good stuff and drink the spicy.
When she returns, I’ll secretly tattle, you’ll be in for it.
“Say, San Mao’s Wife, what exactly are you eating, so fragrant, let Auntie taste some.”
Eyes rolling around, sniffed hard again, peering inside.
“No luck, Miaomiao and I just finished eating, nothing left.”
“The young wife you are, neighbors in the village, you’re the stingiest, hiding everything, nothing could smell this good, Auntie’s nose is sharp!”
Li Sanmao locked in prison cell, no one hunting, where does the meat fragrance come from at home?
“Aiyo! Don’t worry, if you can’t bear to give ingredients, just tell Auntie the secret recipe, Auntie will go back and make do with it!”
“Hey, wasn’t it the other day we luckily caught an old eel in Tuqiao Gully!”
“You know our family situation, lack everything, no veggies no grain, Miaomiao growing, I really had no choice, so made it for a tooth sacrifice!”
“Eel?”
“Impossible, that thing could smell this good?”
Zhao Er’s Wife didn’t believe her words, saw her speaking boldly and quite relaxed.
Thinking of eel, immediately retched, better forget it!
This smell so good, maybe scout a food house, could set up a food stall in town!
“Yeah, in the chicken coop there’s still the head I just chopped, chicken hasn’t finished pecking it!”
Aunt Huaihua’s gaze swept to the chicken coop, sure enough saw the eel head pecked shapeless, and red uneaten internal organs clumps!
“Last time I made a flower snake for home as tooth sacrifice!”
“What?”
Shuddered!
This Old Li Family full of ruthless people, not only white knife in red knife out, Li Sanmao hunts wild game, Li Lei fraud and fled with money, whole family even dares eat snakes!
“No luck, the eel meat eaten up by us mother and daughter, or shall I pick up that head for you to take back and make do?”
“Forget it, forget it!”
Waved hands repeatedly,
“Oh, right, forgot the main thing, I came to tell you, that thief reportedly caught!”
“I’m just going to see the excitement! Wanna go, with me?”
“What?”
She didn’t expect it so soon because of this.
“Caught? Know who it is?”
“Didn’t Auntie just go see?”
“At the grinding stone in the village, everyone knows, now all heading there, only Auntie still remembers you, specially came to tell you!”
Luo Zhi’er with contempt, she didn’t think Zhao Er’s Wife so kind-hearted!
Actually Zhao Er’s Wife specially came to see her reaction, didn’t they all say she stole it?
More importantly, yesterday she Zhao Er’s Wife jumped the most, rumors especially spread by her, now everyone blaming her.
People in village now insisting she spread it, she thought left and right.
Though not afraid of Luo Zhi’er, still came to sell a favor first, lest she really gets mad and fights her big, not worth it making her unable to show face.
This Luo Zhi’er recently found out also sharp-tongued, straightforward, really fierce when temper flares!
Village steward quite values her, her man even said her a couple words!
If fight breaks out, village says she’s gossip, eldest grandson this year went to school to study, will take official career exam in future!
Besides, if they go together, villagers see and dispel their discord rumor, gossip she’s deliberately targeting her badmouthing!
Luo Zhi’er amusingly looked at her, tree without bark surely dies, person without face invincible under heaven.
Luo Zhi’er said: “I know, thanks Auntie for telling me, I’ll go later.”
“Uh, I’ll go with you! Miaomiao, Miaomiao quick go with Second Grandmother to village find kids play! Second Grandmother holding you.”
Miaomiao poked out a round head from the back kitchen, confused looking at Luo Zhi’er!
“No need, Miaomiao with me.”
Miaomiao also said,
“No! Second Grandmother, later Miaomiao with Mother, you go first!”
This Second Grandmother, yesterday said her mom thief, now comes fawning, hmph! Still mad!
Chased her out!
Out of Old Li Family yard, Zhao Er’s Wife cursed,
“This mother and daughter singing in harmony, damn Luo Fatty, what’s so great!”
“Hah! Won’t go with me, me going with you is me thinking highly of you!”
“You think you’re some hot cake! Just short of getting beaten!”
“Huaihua! Huaihua!”
Just walked a few steps, Zhao Xiaomei caught up, calling her from behind.
“Huaihua, what were you muttering just now? Called you forever no reaction?”
“Hmph! Isn’t it because of your Old Li Family’s fat jinx, Luo Zhi’er!”
“Oh? Because of her!”
“Then don’t be mad at her, Luo Zhi’er that person is like that, hmph, all along doesn’t even put me this Second Aunt in her eyes!”
“Not to mention me, now even our old man at home got cold shoulder from her!”
“There’s that too?”
The two started whispering gossip, saliva flying.
Talked and talked, all topics leading to Luo Zhi’er, two chattering, anyway no good words about her.
Finally led to the real thief, really curious who this person is!
The two unknowingly arrived at village center.
