Chapter 43: Family Separation (2/2)



She had to rush back before the thugs arrived. This time, since Old Lady Li and Li Jian dared to plot against her, they would have to pay the price. However, it was unknown whether they could afford the price.

Thinking of this, Li Mengyue quickened her pace.

In less than a quarter of an hour, Li Mengyue was standing at the intersection of Xinghua Village. She was heading home when someone called her.

He stopped and saw the village head's wife, Grandma Li, jogging and waving her hands, asking her to stop.

Although Li Mengyue was anxious to go home, she was not in a hurry for the moment. Grandma Li quickly ran to her, bent down, supported her legs and gasped for breath.

"Yue... Yue girl, why are you here? Your parents are going crazy looking for you. Yesterday morning, your mother found you were not at home and thought you had gone up the mountain. But you still hadn't returned until it was almost dark."

"We searched the entire village, asking every household if they had seen you. We searched until late at night, but couldn't find you. Your Grandpa Li also asked some of the villagers to search outside the mountains, but they still couldn't find you."

"There's a commotion going on in your family now. I heard they're going to take you home or something. Go back quickly and don't let your parents get confused."

"After all, your father is here, but you can't go home with him. Old Man Li and Old Lady Li are here too. Not only can you not get any benefits from your family, but your reputation will also be ruined. And there's your father's leg and your mother's illness. What will we eat and drink if we go home with him?"

"Listen to Grandma Li and persuade your parents not to leave home easily."

Li Mengyue knew that Grandma Li's words did not have any malicious intent, and were even meant for their family.

After all, in her opinion, her father's family is a very big family, not to mention their family, whose parents are in poor health and the twins are still young. For a girl with a damaged reputation, it is lucky for her to be able to get married.

And my eldest brother went out to look for Yun Ran two days ago and never came back. I don’t know where he is or whether he is dead or alive.

In Grandma Li's opinion, a family with no income is courting death.

During the time she was in the village, she knew that every household in the village was not living well. Not to mention having enough to eat, they were satisfied if they could eat half full every day.

In fact, she had long wanted to return home. Living in the Li family's courtyard, she not only had to deal with Mrs. Li's constant quarrels, but also had to watch Old Man Li brainwashing her parents, making them willingly sell the twins to raise money for Li Jian to study abroad.

In addition, we have to see that Old Lady Li is increasingly exploiting my uncle Li Hai's family. In the past, her parents supported them, and my uncle and aunt still had time to rest. Now, every day you can hear Old Lady Li scolding Wang, Li Rou and Li Qiao.

She still remembered that the main reason she chose to come to Xinghua Village was because she wanted to live comfortably here for her retirement, not because she wanted to live with bad people.

Therefore, she wanted to return before the gambling house thugs arrived, just to take advantage of her disappearance, her parents' anxiety, and the quarrel with her family to go home.

However, she also knew that Grandma Li was unwilling to persuade the family because she was worried that they would not be able to survive if they left the Li family.

Little did she know that there was countless money in her space. Not to mention the precious medicinal herbs she picked in the mountains, which could be exchanged for silver, even the hundreds of taels of silver she had saved before could allow her family to live a comfortable life.

This time, she got five boxes of gold, silver and jewelry in the Huang Mansion. If she wanted, she could let her family live a rich life wearing gold and silver at any time.

Besides, she can also go hunting in the mountains. With her own abilities and the assistance of the system, she can be like a fish in water even in the deep mountains. She can easily hunt large beasts and bring them to the county town to exchange for silver.

Grandma Li didn't know all this, but Li Mengyue didn't say anything. Instead, she thanked Grandma Li and went home quickly.

Grandma Li saw that Li Mengyue was walking very fast, so she wanted to pull her over to give her some more instructions, but she couldn't even see Li Mengyue.

Li Mengyue just walked to the door of the Li family and saw the situation in the yard, which made her eyes bloodshot.
