When Li An saw his elder brother and sister-in-law coming with their two nieces to help, he was deeply moved.
He also thought of his eldest brother when it came to dividing the family business, but he also knew that whether he could get a share was still unknown, so he did not mention this matter.
In addition, there were so many troubles during the separation of the family. If it weren't for my daughter's help, it would have been impossible to succeed.
He didn't know what to say about his eldest brother. His eldest brother was too honest and simple-minded. He worked very hard, but the more he was like this, the worse life became for him, his wife and children.
However, when he saw his two thin sons and his wife's frail and sickly appearance, he knew that he had no right to talk about the eldest brother.
However, he was still grateful to his elder brother for coming to help.
With someone helping to weed, Li Mengyue was happy to have some free time. She prepared to go to the Li family's old house and bring over the ten kilograms of grain that she was entitled to after the division of the family property, so as to prevent the old house from regretting it.
Although she was not afraid, she did not want to waste her time and energy on these trivial matters.
Still some distance away from the old house, Li Mengyue saw the gambling house thugs walking towards the Li family.
Thinking of what Tuanzi heard on the road, Li Mengyue quickened her pace.
I really want to see the son who was placed high hopes by old man Li. Not only did he not study hard in the academy, but he was expelled for plagiarism and became addicted to gambling. Not satisfied with losing money, he was so bold as to borrow money from usury, and the interest was compounded, and his money went from 100 taels to 100 taels.
If the old couple knew this, would they still firmly believe that Li Jian was a good student and could pass the imperial examination and become a high-ranking official?
"Open the door, open the door."
When the gambling house thugs arrived at Li's house, they saw the closed door and someone immediately went forward to knock on it.
There were just knocks, but no one opened the door.
Yes! My uncle and his family were all helping with the weeding, so only Old Man Li and Old Lady Li were at home.
Old Mrs. Li's arm injury was serious. If she had taken good care of it, it would have healed in two or three months, but now it's estimated that it will not be healed for half a year. She was lying in bed groaning in pain, and she didn't even bother to open the door.
Old man Li was worried about the division of the family property between his eldest son and his youngest son. Although he had devoted most of his energy to his youngest son after the third son was born, he had once truly loved his eldest son and his eldest son.
He was not unaware of the partiality later on, but he knew in his heart that only the third brother could bring honor to the family, and if anyone was to blame, it was only because the two of them could not read and were not destined to become high officials.
When he heard the knock on the door, Old Man Li didn't care. The eldest brother was still at home, so he didn't need to worry about these little ones.
Outside the door, the thugs knocked for a while and became a little impatient.
The monkey didn't hesitate and kicked the door. Not only did it fail to open the door, but it also hurt its foot.
You know, since Li Mengyue kicked the door in last time, Old Man Li asked Carpenter Yang to repair it.
After all, in his eyes, they were different from other people in the village, they were a family of farmers and scholars.
The front door represents face, so it should be kept in good repair.
The monkey saw that he had not kicked the door open and had injured his foot, so he became very angry.
He picked up a stone and smashed it against the door. After about a dozen hits, the originally sturdy wooden door became shaky.
Hit it a few more times.
“Boom.”
The door slammed heavily to the ground, repeating its fate some time ago.
When Li Mengyue saw this, she felt a little sorry for the gate.
"Who, which bastard smashed my door?"
Old Mrs. Li was startled by the sound of the door falling down, and then she started cursing.
She came out of the room with her arm hanging, and saw six strange men standing in the yard. She swallowed the curse words that were about to come out of her mouth.
