Li Changgeng's brow furrowed: "Honey, are you being silly? Hasn't the matter with Madam Mo been settled?"
"What do you know?" Liu Cuihua realized her words were inappropriate as soon as they left her mouth: "Mom, I didn't mean it, it's just... it's just..." It's just a habit...
Grandma Li laughed in anger. Her daughter-in-law was straightforward. It was fine when she couldn't see, but in front of her, her grandson, and her great-grandson, she cursed her stupid son. How many mothers could be happy about that?
But her own silly son was all smiles and didn't say a word of objection. What could she do?
Just pretend you don't see it...out of sight, out of mind.
Liu Cuihua frowned, "What nonsense are you talking about?"
Li Changgeng chuckled awkwardly, his old face flushing red. He stole a glance at his son and grandson, and seeing everyone watching them with smiles, he took a deep breath. He was determined to spoil his wife, whom he had spent money to marry, even if it meant kneeling down.
Grandma Li glared at the two of them and demanded, "Tell me what happened?"
My daughter-in-law is usually very outgoing and can't keep things to herself. I'm afraid she'll get sick from holding it in, so I'd better just tell her.
Liu Cuihua looked at Grandma Li gratefully: "Mother, you are really my mother! I don't know why, but I always feel uneasy. You don't know the resentful look in Third Grandma's eyes. She might be plotting something bad."
Grandma Li frowned slightly: "Cuihua, tell me quickly, has Third Grandma been acting a little strange lately?"
Li Yuanlin's eyes darted around: "Mom, Grandma, how about I sneak over to Tiezhu's house...maybe I can find something out..."
Li Changgeng scolded, "What nonsense are you spouting? How did I raise such a despicable son?"
Li Yuanlin pouted: "Dad, you'll regret this. Tiezhu is simple-minded, but Third Grandma might not be..."
Liu Cuihua nodded: "Father, don't stop him. Why don't we let Yuanlin take a look at this? What's wrong with asking Tiezhu?"
Grandma Li thought for a moment and nodded: "Cuihua is right. Yuanlin is clever. We might as well go and sound him out..."
Li Changgeng was speechless. He couldn't afford to offend his wife and mother.
Li Yuanlin made a smug face at Li Changgeng, then disappeared in a flash.
“Yuanlin…” Li Changgeng said with some worry, “Cuihua, Mother, is something wrong? What if…”
What if Grandma San and Tiezhu see through our plan? After all, we're all from the same village and we'll run into each other all the time.
Grandma Li's eyes narrowed slightly: "Silly son, listen to your wife, you can't go wrong..."
For some reason, Grandma Li firmly believed this time that her daughter-in-law was right and that what she said made some sense. Hopefully, her daughter-in-law's words weren't blessed.
Unfortunately... ideals are often grand, but reality is harsh. Liu Cuihua's words suddenly became legendary, spreading like wildfire throughout the village...
Now, Li Yuanlin was a clever man. When he arrived at his third grandmother's house, he knocked on the door. At the door, a thin figure blocked his way.
"Ahem... Third Grandma, is Brother Zhuzi home?" Li Yuanlin's eyes darted around, and an idea came to him.
Third Grandma stared at Li Yuanlin: "Are you sure you want to find Tiezhu?"
Li Yuanlin's heart skipped a beat: "Third Grandma, Brother Zhu said he was looking for me yesterday, but I haven't seen him today. I came to ask..."
Surely this excuse would work? For some reason, Li Yuanlin felt a sense of foreboding.
A strange light flashed in Third Grandmother's eyes: "Go and see, Zhu Zi... for some reason, he hasn't eaten anything for a whole day and night..."
Li Yuanlin didn't think too much about it and followed Third Grandma inside, thinking to himself, "I'll have a good chat with Brother Zhu later..."
"Go inside..." Third Grandma pointed to Tiezhu's room and gave Li Yuanlin a strange look.
A voice exploded in Li Yuanlin's mind: Run! But it was too late...
"ah……"
