Li Qiumei looked at Sister Xu's thin arms and legs and felt that she was also a person of temperament.
The two chatted for a while before reluctantly saying goodbye.
Li Qiuxiang didn't agree to spend money to watch a movie, so they had to buy some meat and go home to cook.
As soon as I turned the corner, I ran into her parents.
"Grandpa and grandma." Zhou Xiaopeng ran over excitedly.
The old couple responded.
Li Guofu asked Li Qiumei with a stern face: "Didn't you go to the provincial capital to work?"
"Dad, I just got back today."
Hu Lanying glared at Li Qiumei fiercely: "How dare you come back!"
Li Qiuxiang quickly tugged at her clothes and said, "Mom, stop talking on the street. Let's go back and cook dinner first."
Only then did Hu Lanying reluctantly follow them.
Seeing that Hu Lanying still had a basket on her wrist, Li Qiumei reached out her hand.
"Mom, what's in your basket? Let me help you carry it."
"Take it." Hu Lanying handed the basket to her.
Li Qiumei took the basket and lifted the covering scarf, revealing only a nylon rope inside.
"Mom, what are you doing carrying a rope all this way?"
Hu Lanying didn't say anything, but Li Qiumei soon knew the answer.
After returning to the rental house, Hu Lanying kicked off her shoes and sat on the bed.
Seeing her grim expression, the two sisters knew she was about to start lecturing them.
"Li Qiumei, how can you learn everything from your sister?
These two people get divorced at the slightest provocation and then just want to get out of here.
Do you think my life is too long?
Why don't you listen?"
Hu Lanying slammed the bed in anger.
Li Qiumei took out a dollar and handed it to her nephew: "Xiaopeng, go get a bottle of soy sauce."
Xiaopeng left obediently.
Li Qiumei and Li Qiuxiang sat obediently on the stools next to them.
"Mom, I listened.
You said divorced couples can’t have children, and I listened to you and didn’t have any.”
Hu Lanying covered her chest and said, "Can you be the same as your sister?
Qian Jinshu's family lives in the city, so you can ask Lei Lei to come over.
They should at least give you a house to live in.
Even if you don’t get a house, you will still be given those vegetable plots on the edge of the city.
Either way, you can gain a foothold.
It’s a waste of all the years you spent studying.
Why are you so stubborn? "
Li Qiuxiang glanced at Hu Lanying and said, "Mom, Leilei is a boy, Qian Jinshu's parents love him very much.
How could I possibly agree to give it to Qiu Mei?"
"Idiot, it's precisely because their family cherishes Leilei that they are vying for him.
Since their family is reluctant to let you take the child away.
Then you can ask them for money and house.
How can you come out by yourself and make way for them?"
Hu Lanying said this and wiped away her tears.
"Alas, I'm afraid that in the entire Beishan County, our Li family is the only one with both daughters divorced.
Do you know what those bad-tongued people in the village say?
They said that our ancestral tomb was not buried properly, and that you two were not born with good fortune.
Your father and I have been living with our heads held high for so many years, but now we feel inferior to everyone else.
From now on, who would dare to marry their daughter to your brother?
Oh, this is unbearable."
The Li Qiumei sisters watched her crying and scolding, but ignored her.
After she calmed down, Li Qiumei asked her curiously.
"Mom, how did you know I was divorced?"
"You still have the nerve to ask?
If your father and I hadn't gone to the city, how long would you have kept it a secret from me?"
"You said you risked your life to give birth to this child, but you gave it to a vixen for nothing.
Are you willing?"
Li Qiumei stood up and said, "What's there to be unwilling about? Sister, let's cook first."
Li Guofu slammed the table and said, "You two still have the nerve to eat.
Your mother and I were so angry that we couldn’t eat for several days.”
Hu Lanying wiped away her tears and carefully folded her handkerchief.
"We, the Li family, have raised two disobedient children like you. Not only has the whole family been disgraced, but even our livestock have suffered."
Li Qiumei pricked up her ears. Could it be that the pig at home had died?
"Just two days ago, the hen at home was lost.
I went to the group of women at the entrance of the village and cursed them.
My wife said that the hen in my house also divorced the rooster and ran away.
Do you think anyone would insult someone like that?"
"Hey, in the end it's all your fault.
Your father and I have discussed moving our ancestral grave, and our family’s decision doesn’t count.
If we can’t move the ancestral grave, we’ll just move the house.”
"This family's house is also in tatters. Let's rebuild three wooden houses next to the vegetable garden."
"Qiuxiang, take out your hundred yuan and lend it to us.
Qiu Mei, you can also lend us a hundred yuan like your sister did."
"Your father and I will borrow some more money and build a house. Our family's luck will definitely improve."
Alas, she is talking all this nonsense just to ask for money. Hu Lanying's nature is really hard to change.
The room was quiet. Hu Lanying got angry again when no one responded.
"You guys don't listen to me when I'm talking to you."
Just as Li Qiuxiang was about to speak, Li Qiumei gently pulled her back.
Hu Lanying got out of bed, drank a glass of water, then sat back on the bed and continued to scold the two sisters.
Li Qiumei didn't bother to pay attention to her. She was tired after a long day.
Alas, I can’t afford to provoke them, and I can’t hide from them either. I have to wait for an opportunity to get rid of them completely.
