Chapter 904 Mother, would you like some tea?

As the saying goes, what you fear most is what will happen.

Li Dazui's crotch was cut open.

Li Dazui cried, wiping away his tears as he cursed, "Why didn't you take the proper road? Why did you have to fly on your sword? Huh?"

"It's just a ripped trousers. Don't ride it. It'll look like a young wife sitting on a donkey's back, won't it?"

Song Chunxue suppressed a laugh and laid a rabbit skin mat on it. If the flying boat hadn't been going too fast and accidentally gone too far, she wouldn't have had to use her sword.

What's more, seeing the usually arrogant and boastful Li Dazui so cowardly made her quite amused.

Haha, I'm not so angry anymore now that I think about it.

"Waaah~ You're talking nonsense! My thigh is bleeding! You had a rabbit fur pad, why didn't you say so earlier? Song Chunxue, are you doing this on purpose?"

"If you didn't like me guarding your house, you should have said so earlier. Why bother finding ways to bully me? Is it really that fun?"

"..." Song Chunxue bit her lip to stop herself from laughing out loud. "I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I absolutely didn't mean it that way. If I didn't know you could persuade people, why would I have to drag you into it?"

"If it's serious, let's bandage it up first. I'll buy you two pairs of underwear and outer pants later, how about that? They'll definitely be made of the best material, is that alright?"

She tried to smooth things over, saying gently, "I know your son has been doing very well in the county these past few years, he won't miss out on this little bit..."

"What's the use of good quality trousers if I'm wearing a coarse cloth shirt on top? It'll just make me a laughingstock. Aren't you in the cloth business? How can you be so stingy? I'm already like this, won't you give me a new outfit?"

Seeing Li Dazui's face as long as a donkey's, Song Chunxue quickly nodded, "Yes, yes, it's my fault for not being considerate. I didn't think of that for a moment. I'm not being stingy. I'll give you two sets if you want. From now on, I'll get you the lowest price for new clothes from Meiyang."

"That's more like it." Li Dazui sat down on the sword and gripped it tightly. "Don't worry, this time I'll close my eyes and I definitely won't move."

"Then let's go." Song Chunxue once again flew on her sword, and in the blink of an eye, she had bypassed Dongshan Ridge.

"Hey? You're pretty steady. Song Chunxue, how come you've even learned to fly on a sword? Are you going to become an immortal in a few years? Sigh, I want to cultivate too, but I just don't have the perseverance."

Song Chunxue remained noncommittal. "If you can't hold on, whose fault is it? Didn't I teach you to meditate last time? You can chat with people for two hours without any problem, but you can't even sit cross-legged for half an hour. What are you trying to fix? Go shovel poop."

"Don't swear at me. Do you think I don't know my own worth? By the way, how are things between you and Lord Xie? How could you bear to come back from that idyllic place? Did he leave you, or did you leave him?"

Song Chunxue sensed his gloating and lowered her voice, saying, "We'll talk about it later. When we get there, jump down. Don't scrape your butt again, or no one will put medicine on it for you."

"Huh?" Li Dazui looked around blankly. "We're here already? Can you teach me?"

He jumped off the sword with a thud, careful not to scrape himself, and even pulled off the rabbit skin mat.

He looked at Song Chunxue with envy, "You're amazing now. Just with this one move, you can show off in the manor, and others can only look on with envy and jealousy."

"So, less showing off means less hatred. I don't need that insincere flattery. Cultivators should be low-key." Song Chunxue glanced in the direction of Li Dazui's house. "Are you going home or to the eldest brother's house?"

Looking at the increasingly dark sky, the low, dark earthen walls, the cold stove and empty pots, Li Dazui wondered what was the point of going there.

He looked at Song Chunxue pitifully, "You don't want me to go to my eldest brother's house because you're afraid people will misunderstand that our relationship isn't innocent? Then I'll go to my house instead, maybe my wife will come with me."

“Ugh, you,” Song Chunxue looked at him with disdain, “where did you learn this old hag behavior from? I asked you because I was afraid you’d find the eldest son’s family too big and troublesome. I’m not just saying it casually.”

"If you keep whining like that, believe me, I'll smash you to death with a hammer. My leg is aching."

Li Dazui retorted, "Is Master Song so powerful? I'm just a stinking old man from the countryside farming. It's normal for me to find him unpleasant. But he's dealing with scholars like Xie Zheng, who have everything he could want. Just bear with it and don't get angry. I don't care, you can curse me all you want. I'm just a gatekeeper for them now, I have no skills whatsoever."

"..." Song Chunxue wiped her face in defeat. She was no match for the other person when it came to verbal skills.

Forget it, why bother arguing with a widowed old man? We're both in the same boat.

"Uncle Li, let's not hold a grudge. Have a hot meal and don't take it to heart," Song Chunxue said with a smile, knocking on the door.

"No problem, no problem, you're too kind."

"..."

Footsteps sounded in the courtyard. "Who is it?"

"It's me, open the door quickly." Song Chunxue vaguely heard the voices of two women.

Xu Jiao is probably still in this courtyard.

"Squeak~"

"Mom, why are you back so late?" The eldest son stood at the door, half happy and half worried. "Uncle Li is here too. Please come in. You haven't eaten yet, have you? We're serving the rice now."

Seeing the guilty look in her eldest brother's eyes, Song Chunxue stepped straight into the courtyard.

Li Dazui glanced at the boss, shook his head, and followed behind Song Chunxue.

"Mother, where's the carriage?"

"We walked here, don't worry about us, come inside quickly." Song Chunxue looked at Xu Jiao, who was standing helplessly at the entrance of the main house. Although she was dissatisfied, she still nodded to her.

Stepping into the room, she sat directly in the main seat.

"Mom, you're back." Xu Dahong put down her baby, who was less than three months old, and stood up.

Song Chunxue glanced at the children and could hardly remember how many children her eldest son had.

However, Chen Fengsheng's two children were clearly timid and stood obediently to the side, occasionally lowering their heads and pursing their lips.

The eldest brother invited Li Dazui to sit down and eat.

The sauerkraut and pickled cabbage on the table was steaming hot, but the eldest brother was hesitant to sit down.

"Let's eat first, it's getting cold." Song Chunxue picked up her chopsticks. "Let Xu Jiao come in and eat too."

The person has already arrived, and things have escalated; she can't just send them away.

A girl not yet twenty years old is prone to acting rashly.

I heard that Xu Jiao's husband's family is not a small or humble one, so I don't know how she dared to run away from the Li family.

Unless she really has the heart to abandon her child, she will not have a good time when she returns to her husband's family.

Her family members are weak and won't stand up for her. It's already illegitimate for her to ask her sister and brother-in-law to step forward.

Forget it, let's fill our stomachs first.

After finishing two bowls of lazy dumplings, Xu Dahong took the child to wash the dishes, and Xu Jiao also went to see the child. The eldest son wiped the table and sat nervously on a low stool.

"Mother, would you like some tea?"

"Why drink tea after eating sour food? It'll upset your stomach." Song Chunxue took a breath, trying to remain calm. "What are your plans regarding this?"

The eldest brother glanced at Li Dazui, who was cracking sunflower seeds, and thought to himself that there were only a few left after the New Year, which was originally what he was going to crack for dinner.
