Chapter 36: Strike first to gain the upper hand

Li Jidao wanted to laugh, and he pulled the corners of his mouth, moving slightly.

But speaking is still extremely inconvenient.

[This is not that simple. After you die, I will give you a grand ceremony, but the prerequisite is that you must die first.]

Feng Ying: “…”

Having said that, it seems that our ancestors are not so enviable after all.

Ah Liu said at this time: "My lady, what is there to be envious of? Our ancestor died at the age of eighteen, just like a flower that dies just after it buds and doesn't even bloom."

"I wonder if she was given a pot to throw at him. Will she be able to enter the ancestral tomb?" Ah Liu shook his head. "I heard in the martial arts world that those who die before getting married cannot enter the ancestral tomb, nor can they be buried. They are burned to ashes and can be scattered wherever they want."

"Some of them are not even cleaned up. They are just thrown into a ditch in the mountains and eaten by wild dogs."

Li Ji said: "..."

She really knows how to comfort people.

Feng Ying said: "We shouldn't just throw it away, after all, it's our ancestor. But we don't know where the grave is, whether anyone has smashed it or not."

"We should be able to win the consent of King Luoyang."

Ah Liu was puzzled: "Why do we need the consent of King Luoyang?"

"I just heard that our ancestor seemed to have an engagement with the King of Luoyang."

"Isn't the King of Luoyang very young?" A Liu was shocked.

Feng Ying nodded: "So our ancestor never got married, waiting for the King of Luoyang to come of age, but it was only two years, and she didn't wait."

Ah Liu looked regretful and walked up to Feng Ying and said, "My lady, please stop envying her. She has a tragic fate."

Li Ji said: "..."

I can't stay in this house anymore.

Feng Ying nodded: "That's right. When she was just born, everyone in the world said that she must have been a good person who practiced for ten lifetimes to be reborn into our Li family. Now it seems that she hasn't done enough good deeds."

Li Ji said: "..."

Throw, throw, she really wants to throw things, this is too much.

Feng Ying clapped her hands and said, "Let's not talk about her anymore. At least she can bless Ah Jian. I decided to pay her respects and burn incense for her in the temple for a year."

“That’s another lot of money.”

If you don't make any money, you have to spend it again.

Ah Liu said at this time: "Madam, aren't we a family of metaphysics? Aren't our ancestors great metaphysical figures? If you go to the temple to burn incense for her, won't there be any conflict? Won't you fight with those gods from all directions?"

Li Ji said: "..."

Feng Ying thought for a moment and said, "What you said makes sense. That's great. I can save a lot of money."

Ah Liu smiled happily: "The ancestors will know your intentions."

Li Ji said: "..."

This phoenix in distress is really good at comforting people, really.

As they were talking, the old lady of the manor came in and said, "Someone saw my husband and his friends on the road about to enter the manor. Madam, how are you going to prepare dinner tonight?"

Feng Ying: “…”

"It's over, it's over!"

Feng Ying paced around the room anxiously: "The money is gone, and I ran away early. They will definitely settle the score with me when they come back."

Li Jidao just couldn't bear to see her being so useless.

[Then you won't take the initiative? Do you owe them, or do they owe you? ]

【Go to their room and take back everything they took from you.】

Feng Ying stopped.

Of course the Li family owed her.

She used her dowry to subsidize the Li family's business so that Li Zhengchun would not lose face when he went out, and she also gave birth to two sons for Li Zhengchun.

What about the Li family? They kept Li Zhengchun's ex-wife behind her back, and Mrs. Li even wanted to kill her.

"But if you disrespect your elders, you will be punished by the government."

Li Jidao secretly rolled his eyes: [Then let them fight, who dares? Aren’t you an official yourself? You are the government. ]

"Yes, I am the government, who dares?"

A Liu thought, here it comes, my lady is talking to herself again.

Feng Ying called Zhuang's mother over and asked her to bring a few burly maids, get two carts, and find two large boxes.

Then I went to the hospital.

Now that no one in the family has returned, the few remaining servants are all housewives, so naturally they won't bother her.

Feng Ying and his friends first went to Old Lady Li's room and began to rummage through the drawers and cabinets.

"This hairpin is mine, a pair. My father brought it back for me when he went to Silla to do business. I was wondering why it disappeared, so I took it back." Feng Ying put it directly into the box.

At first she was a little afraid to do this, but there were familiar things in every corner, and it was obvious that they were taken from her.

When Feng Ying thought about how her family had married her in great luxury, and now she had to worry about the money she had to spend to light oil lamps for her ancestors for a year, her fear turned into anger, and her head was buzzing with heat, so she was naturally not afraid of anything.

Let people put everything back.

Ah Liu said, "My lady, if you keep packing one by one, how long will it take you to finish?"

"Then how else can we pretend?"

Of course you just take whatever you like.

Ah Liu did it himself, and this time he was much faster. In just a quarter of an hour, it seemed that there was nothing left in Mrs. Li's room except some furniture.

A Liu also cleaned Mrs. Li’s storeroom.

The string of money was heavy, so she hung it around her neck and waved it.

Afterwards, A Liu took Feng Ying to Jiang's yard and did the same thing at the same speed as before.

Mrs. Jiang’s things were not as luxurious as those of Old Lady Li, but they were all very exquisite, and some of them were Feng Ying’s things.

A Liu also found a box filled with various revealing underwear.

She was well-informed and picked one out for Feng Ying to see: "It's really beautiful, madam, this is for sleeping with a man."

Feng Ying: “…”

This impoverished princess is as shameless as her daughter.

"We don't want this, put it back to her." Feng Ying blushed and whispered, "Maybe she will wear it in front of the eldest uncle and the second uncle again. It turns out that the eldest sister-in-law knows how to have fun. From now on, I will never be jealous of her again. I don't have the ability to do that."

Ah Liu was puzzled: "Why not? Are you disgusted by the ones she wore? Hey, my lady, you don't know, you can look at the styles of the ones she wore and make a set yourself. The rest can be sold on the market for a lot of money. Some people like this kind of things, including many royals and nobles."

Feng Ying: “?”

"They still like the ones they have worn before?"

"Tsk tsk, my lady, you don't know that only the things that are worn and not washed are valuable."

Feng Ying: “?”

Ah Liu said, "My lady, have you never had such beautiful clothes before? No wonder your husband doesn't love you."

Feng Ying: “…”

She is really unbridled.

"Make a few sets for your husband to wear, and he will love you more."

But she liked her more and more.

When they arrived at Gao's yard, Feng Ying would not let her go. She knew that although Gao was arrogant, she had never taken anything from her, so she let it go.

Then it was Li Sanniang's yard. Liu thought everything looked good and took everything away.

The next place was Xu Meiniang's yard. Before they could go there, Mrs. Zhuang said, "Go back first and hide the things. The old lady and the others are back."
