Chapter 145: The Bad Dad Broke His Leg
When the mother and daughter of the Shi family came back from the Li family, the smiles on their faces never faded, which showed that they had a very pleasant morning at the Li family.
Li Mumu also heard from their conversation that the old lady liked her and the matter was settled.
Li Mumu immediately thought of Lin Siyan.
At first, Mrs. Li also liked her very much, but what was the result?
In the end, he wished she would die sooner so that he could scold her from time to time after her death.
Lang Lang's reading voice drowned out the voices of mother and daughter.
"It really looks like the real thing." Wang Yufen said.
Shi Aoxue scoffed, "Mom, one or two days is nothing. If you can make her last a year, I don't believe these people are really willing to deal with this group of unruly people. They are just pretending."
Wang Yufen thought of the villagers' protection of the Gu family and said sourly, "No matter what, everyone treats them very well."
"What's the use?" Shi Aoxue sneered, "Are they really counting on a bunch of unruly people to let them return to Shangjing City?"
"Didn't you hear what the old lady said? The young lady of the Li family works in the county magistrate's residence and is deeply loved by the county magistrate. The Li family will have a good future in the future."
Wang Yufen thought about this and nodded. As she spoke, she pushed open the door and went in. Li Mumu couldn't hear what she said next.
Is the young lady of the Li family deeply loved by the county magistrate?
Li Mumu smiled. After a while, the county magistrate might get sick. Let's see if Li Rong will still be favored.
There is no such thing as Li Rong having an unclean disease. After all, the women of the Li family don't have to serve so many men.
But this time it was different. Li Rong had not taken good care of herself during the postpartum period and had been bullied many times by those men. Things only got better when Liuzi became the leader.
But the disease had already been contagious. Li Mumu had seen Li Rong scratching certain places several times. In fact, it was not just her, Li Fengzhu was not much better either.
That evening, when Li Yuan returned home, he was surprised to see some more food at home. Although it was far worse than before, it was better than the previous few days.
He first looked at Li Zhaozhao, who was still skinny, as if he had not grown since he was born.
He remembered that Yun Chao was chubby and very pretty when he was a little kid, but his mother said it was inappropriate for a grown man to hold a child, so he never held one.
"Sister-in-law, Zhaozhao's diaper is wet, why don't you change her?" Li Yuan frowned.
Zhao called out from a distance, "That was just peed. A baby in this confinement period pees every now and then. Who can afford to change it? It's okay."
Li Yuan looked at the soaked diaper, which was obviously not the only one urinated on. He sighed and tried to help his daughter clean it up clumsily.
But how could he do that?
Mrs. Li was still worried about her son, so she dragged the child's quilt to her and said rudely, "This is not a job for a man like you!"
Li Yuan sighed and still felt very sorry for his daughter.
Those children were protected by their mothers and did not suffer any hardship during their birth.
But she was suffering from the pain in her stomach. Thinking of this, his guilt towards his daughter increased.
"Mom, please don't go to Yuru's place and make trouble. If you do, she and I..."
"You have nothing to do with her anymore." Old Madam Li interrupted her coldly, "Third brother, mother has found a wife for you who is a hundred times better than Gu Yuru."
Li Yuan frowned. You know, he regretted divorcing Gu Yuru, but his real purpose was that the Gu family was still useful to him.
"Mother, what are you talking about?"
"You can't always ask your sister-in-law to look after this little girl, right? I'm old, but I can't take care of her. You have to get married, too."
"I think the daughter of Lord Shi is a good choice." Old Madam Li mentioned Shi Aoxue, and the corners of her eyes and eyebrows could not hide her smile. "She is mainly obedient, and she respects me as an elder. She is also just the right age, only nineteen, and she can still have children if she marries into her family."
Li Yuan thought of Shi Aoxue and frowned slightly, "Mom, I don't want her."
"Why? Did your head get caught in the door? What's so good about Gu Yuru?"
Li Yuan couldn't tell his purpose this time, he knew that his mother was a person who couldn't control her mouth.
If she knew, she might as well be aware that everyone in the world knew.
In that case, the Gu family would be even less likely to be used by Concubine Rong.
"Anyway, I only want Yu Ru now, so please don't get involved."
"That won't do. I've already made it clear with the Shi family's wife. Don't be foolish. Gu Yuru is determined not to live with you, and you're still clinging to her shamelessly. Isn't that making the Gu family look down on you?"
Old Mrs. Li advised earnestly.
"Although Miss Shi is not as pretty as Gu Yuru, she is young. I have high hopes for you."
Li Yuan frowned. Shi Aoxue really couldn't compare to Gu Yuru in terms of family background or appearance.
"It has nothing to do with me. I told you not to meddle in my affairs anymore." Li Yuan said coldly and walked out.
I don’t know why, but there is no news from Concubine Rong anymore?
He asked for some silver. Was there something wrong with the middleman, or was Concubine Rong angry? He didn't ask for much!
Li Yuan couldn't contact anyone and was extremely anxious.
Ma Biao's death was really untimely, otherwise he would have been able to bring back some messages for me.
Li Yuan was still waiting here foolishly, but he didn't know that after Concubine Rong in the palace got the fake news from Li Mumu, she no longer planned to use him and even sent someone to kill him.
So, that day, when Li Yuan was in the quarry, he was hit by something rolling down from above. However, he was lucky enough not to die, but only injured his leg.
When Li Mumu heard what her uncles said, she felt that there was something fishy about this matter.
"You guys should be careful too." Madam Gu said softly.
"Mom, we have enough to eat and warm clothes every day, and we are very flexible. Logically speaking, no matter how weak Li Yuan is, he shouldn't be unable to dodge a rock, right?"
Gu Mingyu sneered, "Who knows, who knows what bad ideas he might be thinking of."
Gu Mingtang nodded. "I think he really regrets it. He's been pestering me and my elder brother these past few days, just wanting us to say something good about him."
Gu Mingyu snorted coldly, "If I had known this would happen, I wouldn't have done it in the first place. If you ask me, he's a man who can't change his ways. He might not really regret it. Maybe he can't stand the hard times anymore and has set his eyes on our things."
"Okay, let's eat." Old Madam Gu winked, fearing that her daughter would be unhappy.
Gu Yuru is actually nothing, just an irrelevant person.
Li Mumu spoke up at this time, "But, the mother and daughter from the Shi family next door said that Daddy wants to marry Shi Aoxue? And the wedding will be soon?"
"What?"
"Is there such a thing?"
"Li Yuan is still looking at the pot while eating from the bowl?" Gu Mingyu was furious. "Does he think all of us are fools?"
