A car accident, our family of three crossed

Chapter 64: He Li's Thoughts

Zhang Cuiju didn't know where she got the strength from, but she struggled to break free from Hang's mother's hand. Coincidentally, at this moment, Zhang's mother opened the door from the inside.

"I won't live anymore..." Zhang Cuiju pretended to be humiliated, covered her face and ran into the yard crying.

"If you dare to ruin my daughter's reputation, I will never forgive you." But Zhang's mother was still planning to marry Zhang Cuiju off again in order to get some betrothal gifts, so how could she tolerate others ruining her reputation?

As soon as she finished speaking, a basin of pot washing water was poured over. Hang's mother couldn't dodge in time and was splashed all over. Seeing her miserable appearance, Zhang's mother couldn't help but laugh loudly.

Hang's mother was stunned for a long time before she reacted. She was immediately furious and rolled up her sleeves and started fighting with Zhang's mother.

Zhang's mother's injuries had not yet healed, so she was naturally at a disadvantage. It was not until Zhang Youcai couldn't stand it anymore and came out to stop them that the situation calmed down.

Hang's mother saw the opportunity and went into the yard. She said bluntly that she would not leave unless the money was returned. She also went into the kitchen and looked for food.

Shangtang Village.

Early in the morning, He Li knocked on Shuisheng's door. Mudun, who came to open the door, was a little surprised to see the person outside.

"Sister-in-law Dazhu, is there anything I can help you with?" Mu Dun asked. The two families didn't have much contact with each other on weekdays, so she must have something to tell me about this sudden visit.

"It's Mudun. Is your elder brother at home?" He Li forced a smile on her dark face and squeezed into the yard while speaking. Mudun's small body staggered.

Dabao, who came with her, ran around the yard as soon as he entered. Mudun had no time to stop him. He ran into the shed where Shuisheng was working, took any little toy he liked and ran away.

"Hey, what are you doing? Put it down." Shuisheng chased out and saw He Li in the yard.

"Mom, I want this, I want this." Dabao said to He Li, holding a wooden doll in his hand.

"If you like it, just take it. Mom asked Brother Shuisheng to give it to you." He Li said as a matter of course. As she spoke, her eyes kept glancing towards the shed where Shuisheng was working.

Just when Dabao was about to have fun, Shuisheng said firmly: "No, I can't give that to you."

That was the Calabash Brothers he had just carved this morning, specially for Yangyang.

Dabao was immediately unhappy when he heard this. He sat down on the ground, kicked his feet and started crying: "I want it, I want it, I want it..."

He Lishi didn't expect Shuisheng to refuse, and she felt a little embarrassed, "Oh, it's just a small thing, what's wrong with giving it to us? Look how Dabao is crying."

"I can't give it to you. Someone paid for it and made it to order. If you really want it, you can order it to order. It's fifty cents each."

"What the hell does this cost fifty cents? Why don't you just rob it?" When He Li heard that she had to pay silver, she felt like it was a hot potato. She quickly snatched it from Mudun's hand and threw it back.

Shuisheng quickly took it, ignoring Dabao who was crying even harder, and asked indifferently, "Sister-in-law, are you here for something? If not, I'm going to go to work."

When she heard Shuisheng talking about doing work, He Li's eyes lit up and she said smugly, "You are busy, you are busy. I have nothing else to do. I just want to see if you have any unused boards or wood left over from your work. I want to ask you for some."

She didn't consider herself an outsider at all. She walked past Shuisheng and went into the shed. She looked around, flipped here and looked there, and kept asking Shuisheng what work he was going to do next.

Shuisheng followed her silently and monitored her the whole time without revealing a word.

"Oh, you are such a kid. You didn't say anything, but you are afraid that your sister-in-law will learn it secretly."

Shuisheng didn't respond to her question, but just asked again: "Sister-in-law, are you okay?"

Seeing that Shuisheng was very defensive, He Lishi couldn't get anything useful out of him, so she had to give up for the time being.

He randomly picked up two pieces of leftover scraps from aquatic work and left with Dabao, who was still crying.

As soon as she went out, she met Song Ning and her son. She thought that Song Ning's family took Shuisheng's ox cart to the county town yesterday, and they must know about Shuisheng selling chairs.

He Li had something to hide. She thought that others who came to Shuisheng's house had the same purpose as her, so she was not in a hurry to leave. Instead, she deliberately blocked the door.

"Hey! Mother Yangyang, what are you doing here at Shuisheng's house?" If you didn't know her, you would think she was the mistress of this house from her tone.

"Of course there is something wrong." Song Ning said.

"What's the matter?" He Li asked.

"It seems that whatever happened has nothing to do with my sister-in-law, right? You are meddling too much." Song Ning pursed her lips, finding it a little funny.

Song Ning had never wanted to have too much contact with He Li, a person who had always been hostile to him, so he didn't speak too politely.

This made He Li speechless for a moment. She glared at her fiercely and left angrily, "Humph, don't be so proud."

Song Ning watched the mother and son's backs as they left, and only after they had gone far away did he bring Yangyang in.

As soon as he entered the room, Song Ning asked Mu Dun, "What's the matter with Dabao's mother coming here?"

After all, they have no connection at all, and the sudden appearance of someone at the door is bound to make people puzzled.

Mu Dun shook his head and said, "I don't know. When I asked her what was the matter, she didn't tell me. She just kept asking what my brother was doing, but my brother wouldn't tell her."

After Song Ning thought about it carefully, he guessed something and said, "I think she must have known about your brother selling chairs. You should be careful these days and don't let her trip you up."

Here, He Li came home and saw that He Dazhu was not working in the fields, but drinking wine with peanuts at home. She couldn't help but complain, "I asked you to visit Shuisheng's house, why didn't you go? Maybe you can learn something from him, but don't let others get there first. It's useless to regret it. Don't just drink."

He Dazhu took a sip and said nonchalantly, "Hey! What's there to learn secretly? It's just making a chair. How difficult is that?"

"It's not that difficult, so why don't you get moving? What's the point of just talking? Can you name a chair with just your mouth?"

"Don't we have any wood materials at home?"

"If you don't have any, then go into the mountains and cut some bamboo. I saw clearly at the market that all those chairs were made of bamboo."

Thinking that the raw material was bamboo, He Li wanted to cut down the entire bamboo forest on the back mountain. But that was just a thought. The whole mountain was full of bamboo, and the people in the entire village could not cut down all of them, let alone their family.

"No, you have to go into the mountains right now and cut the bamboo first." As long as she thought about the fact that the chair could be sold for ten taels of silver, she really couldn't wait any longer. The sooner it was made, the sooner she could exchange it for silver.

Unexpectedly, He Dazhu refused and said, "I don't have time right now. I still have work to do in the fields later."

"You lazy man, there's nothing you can rely on except drinking."

He Li picked up the broom and hit him, "I told you to drink, I told you to drink..."

"What are you doing, you damn bitch? Stop it now."

"Would you like to go cut some bamboo?"

"I'll go, why don't I go?"
