Chapter 47 The So-called Calculation
Li Chenggang had just left the Xiao family. For some reason, the uneasiness in his heart was infinitely magnified the moment he saw Xiao Chenguang.
He wiped the sweat off his body, and his hands began to tremble unconsciously.
What should I do?
A group of noisy children came towards us.
Li Chenggang's expression changed almost instantly, and he stopped them with a smile, "Don't go, kids! Uncle has candy here."
The children immediately became alert, "Who are you? Mom told us not to talk to strangers, you must be a beggar."
“No, no,” Li Chenggang felt that the kids in this brigade were more difficult to deal with than those in the county. How could one or two of them be so smart?
He took out a handful of candy from his pocket with a smile, "Don't be afraid, uncle has no bad intentions, I just want to ask you a few questions, whoever can answer them, I will give the candy, okay?"
The children were very alert. After a while, a girl with pigtails suddenly said, "I know him. He is Grandma Xiao's son-in-law."
"Which Grandma Xiao?"
"Yes, the one who loves to laugh the most."
"Oh~" When the children heard this, they suddenly realized it, but the little girl suddenly said: "He is a bad guy. My grandma said that he bullied Aunt Xiaoyue."
Li Chenggang was ashamed. Not only did he fail to get anything out of the kid, but he was hit by a stone picked up by the kid and was beaten to a pulp.
Just when Li Chenggang thought he would return empty-handed, a man suddenly appeared.
"You are the son-in-law of the Xiao family, right?"
The two looked at each other and Li Chenggang smiled.
With this feeling of mutual sympathy, he handed over a cigarette and said, "It's me, uncle. What can I do for you?"
Tian Tieniu took the cigarette and held it in his mouth without moving.
Li Chenggang understood and fueled his fire. Tian Tieniu smoked for a long time and suddenly said vaguely: "Tell me, what do you want to know?"
"Well, since Uncle is so open, I won't argue with you. I want to know when Xiao Chenguang will come back?"
"Him?"
Tian Tieniu recalled, "He came back at the beginning of the autumn harvest, and it has been about half a month."
Li Chenggang's heart skipped a beat and he suddenly felt confused.
Tian Tieniu hadn't realized Li Chenggang's purpose yet. He just glanced at him and said, "What's the matter? Why are you asking about him? I thought you wanted to ask about Xiao Chenyue."
Li Chenggang took a deep breath and reminded himself that no flaws could be allowed at this time.
He Tian Tieniu chatted calmly, "Well, Chenyue is my wife, what else is there to ask?"
Putting aside other things, Li Chenggang still doesn't take Xiao Chenyue's attitude seriously.
For a married woman with children, being able to take her in is a blessing she has earned in eight lifetimes.
Without me, what kind of person can she find?
Li Chenggang was very confident, he was just a little puzzled by the appearance of Xiao Chenguang.
Tian Tieniu looked at Li Chenggang and asked, "Do you think Xiao Chenye's parents have found a wife for him?"
"Xiao Chenye?" Li Chenggang smiled, "Old uncle has taken a fancy to the boy Lao Wu and wants him to be your son-in-law, right?"
"Hmph!" Tian Tieniu muttered, "That's about right."
"Don't worry, this guy is still single, but if you want to make a move, you'd better be diligent. From what I know, his family is now very close to a young educated youth named Wen."
The two exchanged the information they wanted to know, nodded to each other, and then separated.
After arriving at the county town, Li Chenggang returned home as if he was in a trance.
Li's mother hurriedly asked, "What happened? Did anyone coax her back?"
Thinking of the criticism she had endured during this period, Li's mother gnashed her teeth in hatred. This damn rascal, a country girl, actually had such a bad temper.
I should have known I wouldn't have chosen someone like her as my daughter-in-law. She has no ability at all and has a bad temper.
Li Xiaomei also nodded in agreement, "That's right, brother, when Xiao Chenyue comes back you must give her a good beating.
Otherwise, it would be embarrassing if word got out that you always run like this."
"Okay," Li Chenggang said angrily, "You two should stop talking. I'm living well at my parents' home now and I have no plans to come back at all."
"What?"
Mother Li was really panicking now. "That can't be right. She is a married woman who has lived in her parents' home for such a long time. Isn't she afraid of what her family will say?"
When she was young, she had quarreled with her husband.
Once the fight got really serious and she was slapped and kicked twice. Feeling extremely aggrieved, Li's mother wiped away her tears, packed up her things and went back to her parents' home.
But before she could spend the night at her parents' home, her family packed up her things and threw her back.
She even talked and laughed with her man, as if her injury was not important at all.
Today, so many years have passed.
Her man has turned into a handful of earth, but she still remembers the look in his eyes at that time, which makes her feel ashamed and embarrassed.
Later, I gradually became numb.
As long as people are not dead, life must go on.
As a woman, you always have to endure more grievances.
This is also the reason why Li's mother dared to bully Xiao Chenyue without any worries. In her opinion, as long as she is married, she is a married woman and has no place to stay even if she returns to her parents' home.
"Alright," Li Chenggang said angrily, "Are you done yet? It's just a small matter, and you keep nagging me. I'm really annoyed today. Please stop bothering me."
After saying that, Li Chenggang slammed the door and went into the bedroom.
Li Xiaomei shrank back, a little scared, "Mom, did we do something wrong?"
Li's mother was in a state of confusion, "What did we do wrong?"
Yes, she was not wrong. So many people had gone through the same thing. Besides, it was Xiao Chenyue who was at fault first. It was her fault that she did not give the Li family a big fat grandson!
“We are right!”
Mother Li was determined.
.
Xiao Chenguang thought that his appearance would alert the enemy, but unexpectedly, after observing for several days, Li Chenggang did not make any movement, which made Xiao Chenguang lose confidence.
"Hiss! This kid is too patient."
"There's nothing we can do," Zhang Jili frowned as he thought of the children in their care. "There's very little we can do today. We can only wait."
At that time, Wen Ran planned to go to the county town.
As for the reason...
Hmm~
She followed Xiao Chenye up the mountain and was lucky enough to pick up a roe deer.
Hehehe~
We can’t consume all the meat at home, and we eat meat from time to time, which can easily make people jealous.
Wen Ran decided to go to the county town and stroll around a bit. People said there were bargains to be made at this time, and she wanted to join in the fun.
What if?
What if this good luck belongs to her?
Since Wen Ran was going to the county town, Xiao Chenye naturally had to accompany him. Of course, he had his reasons.
"You're going too? That's great. Let's go together so we can look after each other. I have to go to the county town to buy some things for my trip."
