Chapter 014 A Small Revenge
Li Mumu decided to add fuel to the fire. She came out of her grandmother's arms and pulled her mother's hand, "Mom, Brother Yunzhe said..."
"Shut up!" Li Yuan was really afraid that this silly girl would say something bad.
Whenever she opens her mouth, something bad is bound to happen.
Gu Yuru, who was usually gentle and docile, was acting out of character. "Why are you yelling at her? Why don't you let her speak?"
As she spoke, she bent down gently, "Mumu, what else did Li Yunzhe say? Don't be afraid, tell your mother!"
Li Mumu shook her head. "I don't dare anymore. Dad will hit Mumu on the head and it will hurt. I won't say it anymore. Mumu was wrong. Mumu won't say it again."
"Li Yuan, look how scared you are to Mu Mu." Gu Mingjing, the third son of the Gu family, said with concern. He no longer called him brother-in-law, but called him by his full name.
Li Yuan glared at Gu Yuru and Li Mumu with hatred, "Are we just going to watch Yunzhe die? Even if he's wrong, he's still just a child. Besides, isn't Mumu fine? She's mentally handicapped to begin with, so we can't trust everything she says, right?"
However, the Gu family didn't want to listen to his nonsense at all at this time.
Seeing that the Gu family did not respond, Li Yuan shook his head in disappointment and prepared to turn around and leave. However, Sun, who had been so arrogant just now, panicked.
"Please give me the antidote, please, don't just stand there and watch me die."
Zhang Yi finally softened his heart and said, "Second sister-in-law of the Li family, it's not that we don't want to give it to you, but it's just that one bottle of antidote. If it doesn't work, then there's nothing we can do."
This is true. If there was another one, the Gu family wouldn't be so anxious at that time.
Li Mumu didn't say anything. She had as much as she wanted, but she just refused to give it to her.
Sun suddenly wiped away her tears and said, "Why didn't you say so earlier?"
Zhang Yi was stunned by her two faces, and then smiled at himself. She was really too kind.
"What should we do? Third brother, you have the best solution." Sun said crying.
"Yun Zhe won't die, right?"
Li Yuan frowned, looking at his nephew lying on the ground with dark lips, and gritted his teeth. "I don't know if the poison has already entered his lungs, but there is still a way."
"Then tell me quickly." Li Ye urged. He only had this one son.
Girls are all money-losing goods, they belong to other people's families.
"The only way is to cut off his legs, and maybe he can still live."
During the march, some people encountered poison and had no way to treat it, so they could only protect themselves in this way, but this was a very bad strategy, and there was no other way at the moment.
The antidote really didn't work, which shows how poisonous the snake was.
"If you cut off his legs, won't he become a cripple?" Sun shouted and shook her head. "No, no, how can my son be a cripple?"
Li Ye also looked at Li Yuan eagerly, "Third brother, is there no other way? Are you going to ask the Gu family for help? They might have hidden some useful medicine. This is your nephew. You are where you are today, thanks to me."
What Li Ye meant by "thanks to" was that both brothers wanted to join the army, but there was no other way because their family was so poor that they had no way to make a living. But when they were coming back, there was a falling rock on the mountain, and Li Ye pushed Li Yuan, causing his leg to be injured.
I couldn't join the army at that time, and now I still have a little limp when I walk, but you can't see it unless you look closely.
"Second brother, it's really gone."
"Third brother, you're not partial to your father-in-law's family, are you? Let me tell you, we're all prisoners now, and no one has more than anyone else. You could have fawned over them before, but there's no need for that now."
Li Yuan frowned. It was the first time he felt that his brother was so difficult to deal with.
Li Mumu was so happy when she saw the chaos in the Gu family.
The dog-eat-dog scene is the most exciting.
No matter how much they quarrel or make a fuss, Li Yunzhe's life must be saved.
Of course, they can't be saved.
In the end, Li Ye asked the officials to remove his shackles and cut off his son's legs with his own hands.
Li Mumu watched coldly. Even if the bleeding could be stopped now, the broken leg would become ulcerated and inflamed if it was not treated with medicine in time.
Isn't that brotherly love?
Her scumbag father killed her uncles for his brothers, and this time she wants to see them turn against each other.
That night, Gu Yuru had an unpleasant argument with Li Yuan, so she took her children to live with her mother's family.
In the wilderness, Li Mumu was worried that some poisonous creatures might approach again, so while playing with her brothers, she secretly sprinkled the detoxifying powder around the Gu family.
At night, after everyone fell asleep, her consciousness entered the space, where a warm and soft quilt was waiting for her.
The next morning, Li Mumu was awakened by a scream. Her consciousness quickly returned to her body. She rubbed her eyes and yawned.
When her vision gradually became clear, she saw Gu's second aunt, Sun, crying and shouting there.
Just when Li Mumu thought Li Yunzhe was dead, Sun's crying stopped.
"Yunzhe, you're not dead. I was scared to death."
Li Mumu couldn't say that she was disappointed. After all, this was just the beginning. It would be extremely difficult for a person who was so seriously injured to reach the place of exile alive.
Just as she was thinking, a pancake appeared in front of her, "Mumu, eat the pancake."
Li Mumu was not actually hungry, after all, she had already had a delicious meal in the space last night.
But looking at her little cousin's cute face, she still took it. However, she found that others only took half a sheet, or even half of a sheet.
But hers was the only big one.
"Eat quickly. We have to set off soon and these foods won't last long." Madam Gu advised softly.
"It's too big. Twilight can't finish it."
Li Mumu broke off a small piece of cake as she spoke, and then distributed the cake to everyone.
The adults knew how precious the food was, so they shook their heads and refused to eat. The children were even more sensible, so in the end, each piece of cake was shared among the people.
"Such a good child, so lovable, how come..."
Song Qiang was halfway through her words when Zhang Yi bumped into her and winked at her.
Although the Gu family didn't eat much, they did have a bite to fill their stomachs, so they didn't feel so uncomfortable.
But the Gu family members were crying out in grief, each of them was starving.
Lin Siyan was pregnant, her stomach was churning and she vomited a lot of acid. She looked at Li Yuan weakly, hoping that he could get her some food.
However, there was nothing.
"I'm starving. I can't walk without eating." Li Rong watched the yamen runners eating breakfast and licking their lips. Suddenly, her eyes lit up and she came up with a good idea.
