The implication was clear: if Zuo Xiuhong didn't pay her tuition, she wouldn't be allowed to attend classes.
If they keep causing trouble, just have them kicked out.
"Xiuhong, stop making a fool of yourself here. Take Qimu back with you!" Old Mrs. Li said as she stepped forward.
Grandma Li never expected that Zuo Xiuhong would cause such a scene at the academy by relying on Gu Lili's influence.
Her mind cleared up in that instant.
Gu Lili wanted to help them, and she knew that's why she taught Ershu and Zuo Xiuhong their skills.
That's only possible because Gu Lili is doing well, so they can be helped in this way.
This Zuo Xiuhong is ungrateful and is making a scene in the academy because of Gu Lili's status.
Fortunately, the people in the academy were all honest and simple villagers.
If she still doesn't understand, and if Zuo Xiuhong, relying on Gu Lili's influence, offends someone even Gu Lili can't afford to offend that day...
Then it will be too late to regret it.
Or rather, relying on Gu Lili's influence, he acts arrogantly and domineeringly everywhere, which is truly...
Thinking of this, Old Mrs. Li broke out in a cold sweat.
Because Zuo Xiuhong is the kind of person who is capable of doing such a thing!
She absolutely will not allow this to actually happen!
When Zuo Xiuhong heard that Old Mrs. Li said the same thing, she was dissatisfied and said, "Mother, why do you say that? How am I shameful? I did this so that your grandson could go to school!"
She never expected that the usually silent Old Mrs. Li would say such a thing.
She thought that Grandma Li could help her persuade Gu Lili.
Li Qimu is, after all, her own grandson!
Before Old Mrs. Li could reply, Li Qimu ran crying behind her.
"Grandma, I don't want to study here anymore. It's too embarrassing for you, Mother!" Li Qimu cried.
He was quite happy when he later heard that his mother was going to send him to live with Gu Lili.
I can play with my cousin Gu Yanyu and eat lots of delicious food.
However, he felt extremely embarrassed by his mother's outburst.
Although he is still young, he already knows shame.
With my mother making such a fuss today, if I still stay here to study, my classmates will definitely laugh me to death.
Grandma Li wiped away Li Qimu's tears with her sleeve and said, "Well, good child, then you can go back to our village to study."
Grandma Li was secretly relieved that her grandson hadn't been corrupted by Zuo Xiuhong.
Fortunately, he's someone who knows right from wrong.
"My goodness! You heartless wretch! I did all this for you, and in the end you still think I'm a disgrace. I should never have given birth to you! My goodness!"
As Zuo Xiuhong spoke, she was about to rush over and hit Li Qimu.
Startled, Li Qimu quickly hid behind Old Mrs. Li, but Zuo Xiuhong persisted, trying to get around and hit him again.
Grandma Li raised her hand and slapped Zuo Xiuhong across the face.
Zuo Xiuhong froze on the spot, completely stunned.
The onlookers, who had been pointing and whispering, suddenly fell silent.
"You dare hit me! I'll go back and divorce your son!" Zuo Xiuhong cried in disbelief.
Although Old Mrs. Li always scolded him, she had never hit him like this before.
And it happened in public!
Old Mrs. Li was also extremely annoyed at this moment, and angrily cursed, "You'd better go back and get a divorce right now. My Li family doesn't want a troublemaker like you!"
Originally, Old Mrs. Li thought that Zuo Xiuhong was just a little clueless. It was one thing for her to cause trouble in her own home, but now she was causing trouble at Lili's house.
This is absolutely unacceptable!
Anyway, based on what Old Mrs. Li knew about Zuo Xiuhong, how could she dare to go back and get a divorce?
I'm afraid that if she goes back to her parents' house for two or three days, her mother will kick her out.
Sure enough, as soon as Old Mrs. Li finished speaking, Zuo Xiuhong even forgot to cry.
Grandma Li ignored Zuo Xiuhong and pulled Li Qimu out of the academy.
"Lili, let's go!" said Grandma Li.
Gu Lili nodded apologetically to Master Yuan and Han Mingyue, then led Gu Yun Chu and Gu Huan Huan back home.
Seeing that they had all left, Zuo Xiuhong naturally felt too ashamed to stay any longer.
He then slunk away behind Gu Lili and the others.
Upon arriving at Gu Lili's house, Zuo Xiuhong was no longer as arrogant as before.
Instead, she said cautiously, "Mother, I was just too anxious and that's why I said those things. Why did you hit me in public?"
Zuo Xiuhong has finally learned to be afraid.
She knew that Li Qingshan usually listened to Old Madam Li the most.
The way Grandma Li looked just now clearly showed that she was genuinely angry.
Therefore, she dared not cause any more trouble.
But I felt a little unwilling.
Gu Lili remained silent. After all, this was a family matter of her maternal grandmother's, so she let her grandmother handle it herself.
“You know perfectly well why I hit you! You either take Qimu back now, or you do as you say and get a divorce from Qingshan!” said Old Mrs. Li.
No matter what, she would not allow Zuo Xiuhong to persecute her grandchildren today.
Seeing Grandma Li's resolute attitude, Zuo Xiuhong panicked completely.
"Mother, I won't make a fuss anymore, okay? I'll go pay Qimu's tuition right now. Lili, how about I sell some pork intestines for a few days and bring you your two hundred coins?"
Grandma Li ignored Zuo Xiuhong.
Zuo Xiuhong looked to Gu Lili for help.
Gu Lili said calmly, "I don't have time to cook for Qimu, Aunt, you should take him back."
Since her grandmother's attitude was so firm, Gu Lili didn't plan to be a pushover anymore.
"Lili, you're so heartless!" Zuo Xiuhong cried.
At that moment, she regretted it, but she still felt it wasn't her fault.
Gu Lili nodded readily and said, "I may be heartless, but I won't sell you the ingredients for your fatty intestines anymore. You can leave now!"
What does it mean to be considerate? Does it mean that Gu Lili should give all her money to Zuo Xiuhong?
Upon hearing Gu Lili's words, Zuo Xiuhong became even more flustered.
This is a classic case of trying to steal a chicken but losing the rice instead!
I spent the whole morning working on this and didn't get anything good out of it. In fact, I even lost the base ingredients.
She and Li Qingshan haven't officially started selling pork intestines yet. How can they make money without the base ingredients?
"Lili, that's not what I meant! Look at my mouth! I won't say anymore, just sell us the base ingredients, I'll take Qimu back right now!" Zuo Xiuhong said hurriedly.
After saying that, she didn't even bother to get Gu Lili's response.
He pulled Li Qimu up, picked up his bundle, and headed out the door.
Grandma Li watched Zuo Xiuhong walk away before letting out a heavy sigh.
"Sigh, Lili, it's all Grandma's fault for being so clueless before, which allowed your aunt to cause trouble at your house. Don't worry, I will never tolerate this happening again!"
