If Li Erlang and Li Sanlang had been unwilling at the beginning, they would not have agreed to Mr. Li's request. But now they insisted on leaving. Mr. Li instinctively felt that something must have gone wrong.

Just now, in order to show his respect for Mr. Huang, Mr. Li asked Li Sanlang and others to go back first, and he waited for Mr. Huang's carriage to leave before returning to the yard. What happened in such a short time? Could it be that the old woman said something hurtful again?

"Your mother has a lot of words, so don't take it to heart. This is your sister's business. No matter what, if you stay for dinner, it will be considered as making plans for your sister, right?" Old Master Li said quickly.

I originally wanted to say this to give everyone a way out, but I didn't expect that everyone's faces would become even uglier after hearing this.

Especially Hua, who had no desire to say more. He just bowed, said nothing, took his daughter and turned away.

Mr. Li was stunned. Just as he was about to speak, he heard Li Erlang and Li Sanlang speak at the same time.

"Dad, something happened at home today. We'll come to see you another day. You should go into the house quickly. My mother must be waiting for you to discuss something. We won't disturb her and will leave first." Li Sanlang pursed his lips. It can be seen that these words were said with some anger.

Li Erlang was about to speak, but he shut up when he heard Li Sanlang speak. Now he just nodded.

"Second brother, what did you want to say just now?" Grandpa Li still didn't give up, thinking that no matter what, at least one person should stay.

"What the third brother said is what I wanted to say. Dad, I have too much work to do at home, and I don't know how long I can finish it by myself. I will go back first. When I have time, the third brother and I will come to see Dad and Mom." Li Erlang was not good at persuading people. After he said these words, he ran away without looking back, as if he was afraid that Grandpa Li would say something to keep him there.

Li Sanlang and Zhang fought side by side, glanced at Old Man Li, and remained silent.

Their attitude was already very clear, but because everyone else had run away, if they left without waiting for Mr. Li to speak, it would probably hurt Mr. Li's feelings, so they stood here without moving.

How could Mr. Li not see what they meant? He wanted to keep them, but he knew in his heart that no matter what he said, these two people would probably leave. It was good enough to give them a way out.

Old Master Li waved his hand, and Sanlang Li and Zhang immediately left without looking back.

Looking at the backs of his third son and daughter-in-law, Mr. Li's eyebrows jumped. Just as he was about to speak, a woman's figure appeared in front of him.

He recognized her; this was the girl who had always been with the third son's wife.

What do you mean?

"My third son wants you to tell me something?" Mr. Li asked immediately.

Zhima glanced at Mr. Li, wondering what he meant by what he just said. He was a little confused, but it didn't matter. He could just tell the young lady when she came back in the evening. The young lady was so smart that she would definitely know the answer.

"You should go back and ask the old lady in your family and what your daughter said, instead of stopping your son and daughter-in-law here and not letting them leave." Zhima stood in front of Mr. Li, his tone was flat, without any respect or fear in his voice, which made Mr. Li a little dissatisfied.

After all, he is just a servant, bought by his third son. How can he talk to himself in this manner? What kind of person is this?

"The third son's wife is still young and doesn't know how to manage the servants. I will teach him some other day. My son is honest, but fortunately he is obedient and he listens to everything I say." Old Master Li said warningly with his eyes narrowed.

Since Zhima dared to say that, he must have his own reasons, and he knew that there was nothing out of the ordinary in saying that.

She looked at Mr. Li strangely, as if she thought his words were a little ridiculous.

"I was bought by the young lady. I have nothing to do with your third son and his wife. My master is the young lady, and my indenture is also in her hands. It's useless for you to teach others. You should teach our young lady when you have time." Zhima patted the non-existent dust on the hem of her skirt.

"It's just... I'm afraid you don't have the opportunity, nor the ability." Zhima spoke slowly, as if he was afraid that Mr. Li didn't understand. He spoke word by word, not wanting him to miss a single word.

"I'm leaving first, Master Li. You should go back soon too. Your daughter... I'm afraid she can't wait any longer." The round sesame face was full of smiles, looking sweet and festive. If it weren't for Master Li's face looking like he had stepped on shit, anyone would think that this girl must be here to tell you about some happy event just by looking at the sesame seeds. Look, how beautiful her smile is!

"You!" Old Master Li reacted and realized that this girl must have received instructions from Li Mingxia, otherwise a servant would not dare to do this even if she had ten times the courage!

But even if he figured this out, what would it matter? Not to mention that Li Mingxia would never do anything for Mr. Li. Even if he would, now people in the Li family's old house can't easily see Li Mingxia, let alone want to complain!

Zhima didn't even plan to listen to Mr. Li's lecture. She didn't even give him a chance to react. When she walked, she used her half-baked light skills, becoming even lighter than a swallow and moving as fast as the wind. Soon, Mr. Li couldn't even see her back.

When I walked to the door, I heard Li Mei'e's yelling.

"Why don't you just agree to it? Is my father getting senile? Such a good marriage is hard to come by even with a lantern! You're even putting it on the line. What if she really changes her mind?"

Old Master Li gritted his teeth, knowing that his daughter was short-sighted and spoke harshly. Now it was his turn, and this stupid behavior was really dizzying.

Old Mrs. Zheng knew Old Mr. Li well, and knew that this old man was quite clear-headed. The reason he didn't agree immediately was that he must have realized something was wrong.

But seeing her daughter so angry, Old Lady Zheng definitely couldn't say it directly, "He's your biological father, how could he not be happy if you live well? We are the woman, isn't it normal for us to take a little? The more profound you are, the more they will take you seriously. Your father is doing the right thing!"

Li Mei'e usually listened to Old Lady Zheng, but Huang Qianli was too attractive to her, so these two sentences did not immediately appease Li Mei'e. She still pouted and snorted.
