Seeing Li Qiumei getting angry, Li Qiuxiang felt a little uneasy.
"Qiumei, I...I'm really overwhelmed by my mother.
Every few days she either goes to the park to find me or comes here to wait for me, and she cries and acts pitiful to everyone she meets.
I can't win over her in reason or argument, so I just have to buy some peace and quiet with my money."
Li Qiumei glared at her: "No wonder you are still renting a house.
Don’t you think about the fact that Xiaopeng is growing up day by day and there are more places to spend money?
You gave them all the money. It's up to you if you are willing to suffer, but you can't let Xiaopeng suffer with you.
You are not a competent mother at all."
Li Qiumei hung the diapers on the rope and continued to complain about her sister.
"You're really stubborn. You didn't tell me a word in the past two years.
If you had known this would happen, why did you break off the relationship with me in the first place? "
She angrily carried Yuanbao to bed and ignored Li Qiuxiang.
Li Qiuxiang looked at Zhou Xiaopeng with some self-blame: "Xiaopeng, your aunt is right to scold you. It's Mom who is incompetent."
She lifted the curtain and told Li Qiumei with some concern: "Qiumei, I will pay you your salary tomorrow.
I guess my mother will come the day after tomorrow. I don’t know if you can avoid her when you leave.
Don't let her get you entangled with her too.
What if she follows you to North City? "
Li Qiumei laughed angrily. She turned over and said, "Then I won't leave the day after tomorrow. I'll wait for her to come and pester me."
Zhou Xiaopeng spoke through the curtain: "Mom, stop worrying about it.
You should also learn how my aunt deals with my grandparents.
Then, let’s go to Beicheng to celebrate the New Year with my aunt.”
Li Qiuxiang smiled bitterly: "Qiumei, ever since you said that we should go to Beicheng to celebrate the New Year with you, this child has been looking forward to the New Year every day."
Li Qiumei sighed and then asked Li Qiuxiang in detail about what happened.
Sure enough, Hu Lanying asked Li Guofu to pretend to be sick and cheat Li Qiuxiang of her money.
"Does she still go to Zhou Fugui every month to ask for Xiaopeng's living expenses?"
Li Qiuxiang nodded: "I went to ask for it, but when I got it, she took it away and never gave it to me."
Alas, when Li Qiumei looked at her sister, she felt pity for her misfortune and anger at her for not fighting back.
Hu Lanying, who was named by the two sisters, sneezed several times in a row.
Li Guofu glanced at her and said, "Are you catching a cold?"
Hu Lanying glared at him. "What cold? It's clearly those two rebellious girls scolding me behind my back."
Don't think I don't know that today is Carpenter Qian's wedding, and the rebellious girl Li Qiumei will definitely come back to attend the wedding.
At this time, the two sisters should be lying in bed gossiping."
Li Guofu took out a cigarette and was about to light it when Hu Lanying grabbed it and threw it on the table.
"All the doors and windows in this room are closed. Are you trying to choke us to death?"
Li Guofu rolled his eyes and muttered quietly, "I didn't provoke you, why are you so angry at me?"
Hu Lanying suddenly became angry: "Li Guofu, if you hadn't rashly agreed to sever the relationship between the two sisters, how could we have ended up like this today?
Now, Li Qiumei has married a group leader, but neither of us can benefit from it at all.
Oh, why is my life so miserable? "
Li Guofu snorted, "Why do you always bring this up?
It was obviously because you sold her out first, which pissed her off and forced her to break up, and now you're blaming me every day."
After Li Guofu finished speaking, he picked up the cigarette on the table and went out.
Hu Lanying was so angry that she picked up the shoes at hand and threw them at his back.
"Bah, if you were capable, would I have to scheme against those two sisters all day long?"
Li Qiu Ming picked up the shoes.
"Mom, why did you scold my dad again in the middle of the night?"
Hu Lanying glared at him angrily: "Why do you care about him? Have you finished your homework?"
Li Qiuming scratched his head: "Not even close."
Hu Lanying got angry when she heard this: "Son, I'm not saying anything bad about you, but you need to study harder.
I ask you every day and you always say you’re almost there. What are you doing staying in your room all day long?
Let me tell you, Xiaoshuan and Erwa from your class go to the fields to work with the adults at home every day.
I asked them today, and they both finished their homework.
At this point, Hu Lanying suddenly remembered: "Son, didn't you get your test results today?
What place did you get in the exam?"
Li Qiuming mumbled, "I've moved up one place compared to last time."
Hu Lanying was overjoyed when she heard this: "Oh, finally one has moved up.
It’s good to see progress, let’s take it slow.”
Li Guofu came in at some point and said, "What progress!
This semester, the little girl named Cui from Nakamura dropped out of their class. With one less student, he still had the nerve to say he had moved up a place."
Hu Lanying got angry when she heard this: "Qiu Ming, according to what your father said, you'll still be fifth from the bottom in this exam, right?"
Li Qiu Ming nodded.
Hu Lanying pointed at his nose and started scolding him, "How come you are so accurate? You always come in fifth from the bottom.
Your second sister was in the top five in her class before she was admitted to No. 1 Middle School. With your condition, you can’t even get into No. 3 Middle School.”
Li Guofu picked up the broom and hit Li Qiumin on the butt.
"I'll beat you to death, you useless kid. Other people's kids not only help with housework, but their grades are even better than yours.
Our family never requires you to work in the fields. We just hope that you can spend more time studying well, get into university in the future, and have a city hukou.
But look at how you study."
Li Qiu Ming ran around the room, and when he reached the door, he opened it and ran out.
Li Guofu threw down the broom and said, "Alas, our Li family is not destined to be successful.
With his qualifications, he won’t be able to pass any exam.”
Hu Lanying remained silent.
After a long while, she called Li Guofu, "Old Li, I've been thinking, just like you said, it's almost impossible for Qiu Ming to pass the exam on his own.
Originally, I didn’t want to talk to Qiu Mei anymore, but for Qiu Ming, I had to.
We have to catch her and ask her husband to help Qiu Ming.
If nothing else, it would be good to let Qiu Ming follow him to the army for a few years to temper his temper."
Li Guofu wanted to touch the cigarette again, but after thinking for a while, he retracted his hand: "Qiumei is different from Qiuxiang. This girl is a tough guy who won't give in to any tricks.
If you want to argue with her, she probably won't pay any attention to you.
Maybe she'll embarrass you again."
Hu Lanying sighed, "Ever since those two sisters severed their ties with us, our Li family has become famous all over the place.
I have already lost such a huge amount of face, so why should I be afraid of losing it again?
Tomorrow, when Qiuxiang gets her salary, we will go into the city to guard it.
I just don’t believe that Li Qiumei could actually beat me, her biological mother, to death.”
