Chapter 139: Obedient
Li Laoer felt that it would not be impossible to dig a few more wells.
It’s even further away from buying a servant.
Well, where else is there money to be spent that would require my mother to spend it properly instead of saving it for buying a servant?
This is a good question and I need to think about it carefully.
He can't be the only one worrying, he has to get his eldest brother and third brother together to find a solution.
Oh, by the way, there’s Xiaowu too. I’ll talk to Xiaowu about this when I get to the city.
Mom listens to Xiaowu the most, so Xiaowu's advice will definitely be useful.
Li Laoer was thinking as he walked, and when he got home he saw Yuan was about to fetch water to soak the beans.
"Let me do it, let me do it, mother. How can you do such heavy work? What if you sprain your waist?" She turned around and asked the handsome servant to press her, bah!
Yuan's bucket was snatched away, and he stared in amazement at Li Laoer pouring water.
The child’s father…something’s wrong.
After pouring the water, Li Laoer dug into the bucket and said, "Mother, what do you think? How many buckets of beans do you want to soak today?"
"Three buckets." Yuan's face was full of suspicion.
"Then I'll make you some."
Li Laoer finished his work quickly and gave his wife a sweet smile. "From now on, when I'm home, call me if you need any heavy work. Don't hurt your back by yourself. Do you hear me?"
Yuan hesitated and touched her waist. Her waist was not sprained.
"Mom, are we leaving now? I'm going to get the bullock cart."
"Go ahead and load up everything."
"Okay, Mom, sit down and rest for a while. I'll be right there."
Yuan: “…”
The case was solved. The child's father must have just gone out and offended his mother-in-law again, and was scolded by her.
My mother-in-law is really amazing. I want to learn from her.
Yuan happily approached her mother-in-law and asked, "Mom...are you scolding Dadan Dad again?"
"Are you feeling sad?" Qin Fangci was puzzled. The main reason was that he didn't look sad at all. He seemed too gloating.
"No, no, mother, you must have scolded him for doing something wrong. You scolded him well. Once you scolded him, the head of the family became more considerate. I just wanted to... hehe." Yuan smiled with her eyes wide open and her teeth bared.
Qin Fangci understood, "Want to know?"
Yuan's puppy nodded, and even Du, who was sewing shoe soles, pricked up her ears.
"Just do your job well, they listen to me."
Yuan was stunned. Her mind was spinning and she felt that what her mother-in-law said made sense.
"Mom, don't worry. From now on, if you tell me to go east, I will never go west. If you tell me to catch a chicken, I will never chase a dog!"
Li Laoer, who came over in an ox cart, happened to hear Yuan's loud declaration.
"Mother - my dear mother!" Li Laoer left the ox cart and rushed over, his shoes flying off!
"Mom! How could you tell that to the child's mother!"
"What did you tell me, mother?" Yuan squinted her eyes and looked at Li Laoer. "Did you hide your private money from me again and get scammed?"
Li Lao Er's face was filled with black lines, "I didn't!"
"He hasn't done anything bad yet, Taohua, you can put your mind at ease." Qin Fangci gave Yuan a look that said, "Don't worry, I'm here for you."
Yuan was relieved and snorted at Li Laoer, who seemed to be very smart at the moment.
It must be that Li Laoer wanted to do something bad behind her back, and was discovered by his mother and punished.
Should!
"Mom, I'm going to work. What do you want to eat today? I'll make it for you tonight."
"If you eat too much meat, you can stew some vegetables with tofu."
Yuan replied loudly, "Okay, mother!"
The ox cart drove out of the house, Qin Fangci held San Ya in her arms, and Li Yulan ran out from some corner.
"Mom, I want to go with you to see my younger brother." Afraid that Qin Fangci would not agree, Li Yulan patted her purse and said distressedly: "Mom, I also paid for San Ya to have her hand checked."
"Let's go."
Li Yulan jumped onto the ox cart with joy, and half of her pain about spending money disappeared.
She has been very busy at home recently and wants to go out for some fresh air.
Hehehehe.
"Yulan, keep an eye on the basket at the back and don't let anything fall out."
"I know, I know. Second brother, please leave."
The ox cart was shaking, and Qin Fangci told Li Laoer to slow down because the road was uneven and not to let San Ya get hurt again.
Li Yulan swung her legs at the rear of the car, "Second brother, I'm not in a hurry."
San Ya nestled in her grandmother's arms, her mouth filled with the sweet candy that her grandmother had just stuffed in her mouth, which was very sweet.
The little girl felt that it was good to be injured now, as she had candy to eat and her grandmother to hug her.
Li Laoer worked hard and slowed down the ox cart.
It was noon when the three of them arrived at the county town.
Li Laoer drove the ox cart all the way to the back door of Pan's house.
The servant who had known the Li family for a long time opened the door and said, "It's Master Li, Old Madam, Madam Li, Miss San Ya, please come in."
Another servant cleverly went to find Changxi.
Recently, my master is often not at home after noon, and I don’t know if he has gone out now.
Li Laoer handed the rope to the servant of Pan's house and wanted to walk in with his hands behind his back, then he saw his mother staring at the servant of Pan's house.
Last time, my mother didn’t even bring anyone to see me.
Li Laoer's heart suddenly became alarmed, and he turned around and went back to move the dishes down.
The servant who was about to lift the basket: "..."
"What are you standing there for? If you don't have enough strength, just take something light and send it to the kitchen. The vegetables are freshly harvested today, and the chicken is also freshly killed. Just wash it and it's ready to stew."
snort!
These guys are not good-looking and useless. What are we doing watching them?
"Yulan, take mom inside to rest. We'll go to the clinic to treat San Ya's hand soon. Don't delay for too long or the doctor won't be able to handle it. It's not good for a girl to have a lame hand."
Li Laoer, who originally just wanted to tell Qin Fangci to leave quickly, was so scared by San Ya that his face turned pale.
Qin Fangci glanced at Li Laoer and touched Sanya's little head, "Don't be afraid, your uncle's injuries will heal."
San Ya's heart fell back into her stomach, and she walked inside obediently holding her grandmother's hand.
Li Baisong was about to go out with Pan He when he heard the servant say that his mother had arrived.
He hurried out with Changxi to greet him.
When he saw people from afar, Li Baisong smiled, a bright and brilliant smile.
"Mother. Fourth sister, Sanya."
Li Baisong's eyes unconsciously fell on San Ya, because it was not right for her mother to bring only one child into the city.
He could tell at a glance that San Ya's hand seemed to be injured.
"Mom, is San Ya hurt?"
Li Yulan glanced away guiltily, looking at the sky and the earth but not at Li Baisong.
"Could it be that Fourth Sister accidentally hurt herself?"
Li Yulan pouted, feeling embarrassed and guilty as if she had been exposed. She put her hands on her hips and said, "Yes, I accidentally kicked off the bed and got hurt. Is that okay? I've told Mom, and I'll pay for San Ya's treatment."
Li Baisong met Li Yulan's eyes that said, "If you dare to say that to me, I'm going to bite you." He looked away, bent down, and picked up San Ya.
"Uncle, take a look. Is it dislocated? Is Sanya still in pain?"
San Ya shook her head. The little girl has always been well-behaved, and now she looks even more well-behaved, blinking her big watery eyes with a serious look on her face.
"It doesn't hurt, uncle. I didn't mean it. Please don't be angry with me."
"I'm not angry, don't be afraid. The bone will be straightened quickly. If it hurts, your uncle will buy you some candied haws."
