After the others left, Li Mingxi began to ask.
"Granny, did you know that Wumao Ge actually has such ambitions?"
Niu Cuihua shook her head. "Who knows? That kid just works hard all day long and never talks about anything. Who knows what he's thinking? I don't have the time to guess what he's thinking!"
"Okay, let's not talk about him anymore. Go to bed after dinner. Don't you have to get up early to study tomorrow? Why are you thinking so much?"
As she spoke, Niu Cuihua pushed Li Mingxi into the room.
"Grandma, I don't want to sleep yet, let's talk!"
Niu Cuihua glared at Li Mingxi, "What's there to say? Just go to bed! You should focus on your work all day long. Why are you caring about these things?"
While she was saying this, she kept exerting force with her hands. Finally, Li Mingxi couldn't stand her grandmother's strength any more and had to go into the house obediently.
After lying on the bed, Li Mingxi carefully recalled what Wumao Brother had just said. To be honest, her heart could not calm down for a long time. Before, she had never thought that Wumao Brother had such ambition!
She has always thought that Wumao Ge only knew how to work and didn't think about anything else, but she never expected that these are what he was thinking about!
This is really a case of doing great things quietly!
Besides, there is an old saying that goes, don’t judge a book by its cover!
Thinking of those words, Li Mingxi felt extremely embarrassed. It seemed that she would need to change her mindset in the future!
Before, she always thought that Wumao Ge was slow in thinking and slow in reaction, and looked down on him. But in the end, among so many children in the family, Wumao Ge was the only one who was interested in studying farming!
It can be said that as a country boy, Wumao Ge’s thinking is precious!
I don’t think about living a good life in the past, but I hope to help more ordinary people live a good life through my own efforts. This idea is nobler than many people’s thoughts!
However, if you want to research methods to increase grain yields, it is not enough to rely solely on farming. Only by going to relevant schools and learning professional knowledge can you realize this idea!
Li Mingxi felt that she should have a good talk with Wumao Ge and help him realize his dream as soon as possible!
In the east room, after packing up her things, Niu Cuihua turned over and got on the bed, intending to have a good sleep, but she just touched the pillow.
Old man Li, who had been silent all this time, finally spoke.
"Old lady, don't go to sleep yet, I have something to tell you!"
Niu Cuihua didn't care. "Just tell me, tell me quickly. I have to go to bed after I tell you. I'm almost dead tired today!"
Old man Li glanced at Niu Cuihua and then spoke cautiously, "Your attitude today is not good!"
Niu Cuihua sat up with a start when she heard this. "What did you say? Why is my attitude so bad? Look at Liu Zhaodi. If you treat her well, she will fly to heaven!"
Seeing that the old man was blaming herself because of Liu Zhaodi, Niu Cuihua was furious!
She just stared at Old Man Li with her teeth gritted, as if she wanted to eat him!
When Old Man Li saw that she had misunderstood him, he quickly began to explain.
"Look, when did I ever say anything about your attitude towards the third brother's wife? I was talking about that kid Wumao!"
"He's our grandson, but look at your attitude towards him. I'd say it's a good thing this kid is kind-hearted and doesn't bother with you. Otherwise, if it were someone else, with the tone you're using, they'd definitely never come to our house again!"
Niu Cuihua didn't take it seriously. She turned around and said nonchalantly, "If you don't want to come, then don't come. What's so scary about that?"
Seeing his wife like this, Old Man Li couldn't help but start to persuade her, "That's not what you said. It's fine when you were little, but now the children are grown up. If you keep doing this, who knows, one of them might complain. If they start to make a fuss, what will we do? What do you think?"
Having said that, fearing that Niu Cuihua would be angry, Old Man Li hurriedly began to explain.
"I'm not saying what you did is wrong, it's just that we can't be so obvious, right?"
Hearing this, Niu Cuihua snorted coldly and spoke with contempt.
"Now you know how to criticize me, then what were you doing before? I've been treating you the same way for so many years, and I haven't heard you say anything. So, now you're picking on me! I'm telling you, don't think I'm easy to bully just because I'm old!"
Having said that, she turned around and pinched Old Man Li's arm hard with her hand.
Old man Li gasped when he was suddenly strangled for no reason.
"You old woman, just say what you want to say. Why are you pinching me? It almost hurt me to death!"
Niu Cuihua snorted coldly, "I'll pinch you and see if you dare to talk nonsense again. If I were to say, you've been spoiled. If I don't scold you for a few days, you'll get itchy, right?"
At this point, Niu Cuihua suddenly raised her voice, "You old man, what on earth do you want to do? Do you have some evil ideas in your mind that are deliberately causing trouble?"
Old man Li had meant to kindly remind his wife, but he didn't know how he had stirred up a hornet's nest. So, when he heard Niu Cuihua say this, he quickly spoke to comfort her.
"You misunderstood me, old woman, really, that's not what I meant!"
Niu Cuihua was already very annoyed because of Liu Zhaodi, and now when she heard what Old Man Li said, she immediately started shouting.
"That's not what you meant. What did you mean? I thought I didn't know that you've been getting impatient with me for a long time. Tell me, do you regret marrying me?"
Old man Li didn't expect that he just said a simple sentence, but the topic went further and further, and now it even touched on something like marriage. Something that happened eight hundred years ago was brought up again. Old man Li felt that he was wronged!
Therefore, after hearing Niu Cuihua say this, he quickly spoke.
"Old woman, what are you talking about? I just told you not to talk to the younger generation like that, but you dragged it into that. Aren't you completely wronging me?"
Niu Cuihua snorted coldly, "Whether I have wronged you or not, you know it in your heart. Why do you have to let me make it clear to you?"
Hearing this, Old Man Li scratched his head helplessly and became extremely anxious.
"Hey, why can't I explain it to you clearly? I just want you to pay attention to the attitude when talking to the children, but you say this and that. What should I do if you are like this?"
Niu Cuihua didn't care whether he was embarrassed or not. She had always been like this. She had never seen the old man say anything, but now he was talking about this and that.
Isn't this just looking for trouble? If that's the case, why should she show him any mercy?
Thinking this in her heart, she spoke directly.
"Alright, alright, you don't have to do this. I know what you're like. If you don't like me, why didn't you say it earlier? Now a lifetime has passed, and you're saying this and that. Aren't you just looking for trouble? Do you think I don't know?"
Seeing that he couldn't make sense of her argument, Old Man Li quickly begged for mercy, "Alright, alright, I won't talk to you anymore. We can't explain it clearly anyway!"
"Okay, let's go to bed!"
As he spoke, Old Man Li simply covered his head with the quilt, not caring about Niu Cuihua's reaction!
