Chapter 106 Women are always petty
This is also the reason why she was willing to pay twice as much to buy this painting.
In fact, in the eyes of outsiders, she spent a lot of money to buy this painting, but in fact she didn't spend much money. What people want is food, and her food is taken out from the space supermarket. According to the exchange rate of space supermarket, this hundred yuan of food is probably only worth a few cents outside.
"You are still laughing, Comrade Li. I am serious. Don't lie to that man. I think that painting is just an ordinary painting." He Erpao saw that she was laughing and said anxiously for her.
Li Yiyi looked at He Erpao who was worried about her, and this time she felt that this guy still had some humanity.
"I know it's a landscape painting, but since Yang Tao liked it, I naturally have to buy it." She said with a smile on her face.
He Erpao didn't know that Yang Tao was reborn. When he heard her say this, he thought she was trying to compete with Yang Tao.
After all, Yang Tao wanted to steal someone else's man.
"I think you women are petty. You take money out for such a small fight. You really have money but don't know where to spend it." He muttered to himself.
Li Yiyi smiled, looked at him and asked, "I heard that Yang Tao fell in love with a man. What do you think?"
"What do I think? She has always looked down on me. I have no thoughts about her a long time ago. Besides, I can't control a woman like her. She can like whoever she wants. I don't care." He Erpao said nonchalantly when he heard this.
Li Yiyi listened and nodded, "It seems that you are quite open-minded. Here." As she said that, she took out a box of cigarettes from her backpack and threw it into his arms.
"A box of cigarettes. It seems that this kind of cigarettes is only available in department stores and only capable men can afford it. I didn't expect that I, He Erpao, would have the chance to smoke it." Seeing that it was such an expensive cigarette, He Erpao looked at it with an expression of reluctance.
Li Yiyi smiled and said to him, "As long as you help me well, I can make you drink not only cigarettes but also foreign liquor."
"Comrade Li, rest assured. I will definitely help you and will never have any ulterior motives." He immediately stood up straight to show his loyalty.
Li Yiyi doesn't believe in such words of loyalty. In her opinion, there is no loyalty even between husband and wife in this world, let alone people with vested interests like theirs.
"Okay, to make a long story short, I have one more thing I need you to pay attention to. Can you help me find out if anyone knows about this golden furnace? Take your time to ask around, don't be in a hurry." she said.
"Jinlu, right? OK, I'll take note of it. I'll definitely help you find out." He smiled and rubbed his hands while making the promise.
Li Yiyi saw his action and curled her lips, "Don't worry, I won't let you ask about this matter in vain. As long as I get a little information, I will pay you."
"Okay, I knew that you are a good person, Comrade Li. I will take care of this matter. Just wait for good news." Upon hearing her guarantee, He Erpao laughed.
Li Yiyi's face turned cold when she saw his eagerness for quick success. She wanted to take back what she had just said about him having some humanity.
After coming out of the alley, the two went their separate ways.
After leaving the county gate, Li Yiyi suddenly thought of her good mother's home, so she turned her bicycle in another direction and rode towards Lijia Village.
When she arrived at Lijia Village, a large group of villagers were working in the fields at the entrance of the village.
Her back as she entered the village triggered a secret discussion among several villagers working in the fields.
"The one who just rode the bicycle past was Old Man Li's daughter, right? Why do I remember not seeing her come back for a long time?"
"That's right. I haven't seen her come back for a long time. I used to see her come back every few days. I even heard Old Man Li's wife scolding her daughter for being heartless."
When the other villagers heard this, they sneered and said with disapproval, "This daughter of theirs has no conscience. It's hilarious. Given their lazy family, if it weren't for this daughter who always gave things to her parents, their family would have starved to death long ago."
Another villager whispered, "Speaking of which, have you noticed that everyone in Old Man Li's family looks ugly, but only their daughter is pretty. She doesn't look like Old Man Li and his wife at all."
As soon as these words were spoken, a wave of excitement immediately arose in the hearts of the villagers working here.
Li Yiyi, who had already arrived at Li's house, had no idea about the discussion taking place on the field.
The moment she pushed open the shabby door of the Li family, an indescribable smell immediately wafted into her nose.
Li Yiyi subconsciously covered her nose with her hands and looked at the dirty and messy yard in front of her with disgust.
"Sister, you're back." Just then, a boy with a messy hair ran over.
"Sister, why did you come just now? I missed you so much." Li Jiabao said while looking at her hands. When he saw that her hands were empty, his face immediately looked a little ugly.
Li Yiyi naturally saw his expression change and sneered in her heart, but did not show anything.
When he shouted, Mr. and Mrs. Li, who were sleeping in the room, also came out.
When Li's mother saw her daughter coming back, she thought she was coming back to admit her mistake. She snorted at her and scolded her, "You're still thinking about coming back? I thought you didn't consider the people in this family as family anymore."
Father Li smiled at Li Yiyi ingratiatingly, then quickly walked up to Mother Li and secretly pulled the corner of her clothes, "Stop talking, don't you always think about your daughter coming back? Now that your daughter is back, you say such unpleasant words again."
After that, Father Li explained to Li Yiyi, "Yiyi, don't pay attention to your mother. In fact, your mother has always been eager for you to come home. She just speaks hard but is soft-hearted."
Li Yiyi looked at the ugly faces of this family with a fake smile.
It's a pity that she is not the original owner and won't fall for this family's tricks.
"Okay, stop showing me these hypocritical stories of loving mother and filial piety. I came here today because I want to ask you something." She was in no mood to watch their acting, so she interrupted their performance with an impatient look on her face.
When Li's mother heard the tone of her voice, she became furious and rolled up her sleeves, cursing, "You stupid girl, this is how you talk to me and your father in such a disrespectful tone, right? If I had known you were such an unfilial person, I would have thrown you into the urine bucket and drowned you when I gave birth to you."
When Li Yiyi heard her talking about her childhood, she curled her lips in disdain, "You didn't dare to throw me away at that time, after all, if you threw me into the urine bucket and drowned me, you would have to pick up another child to be your own."
