Shen Qingli heard the sound, walked out of the bamboo shed, and walked quickly towards the front yard.
Gou Wa and Niu Niu both knew the old lady of the Li family. The old lady of the Li family was old, and all the elderly people of that age in the village were taken care of. She had not had to work for a long time and was busy with housework on weekdays.
When he has free time, he chats with old men and women under the big tree at the entrance of the village, talking about all sorts of things, and looks very easy-going.
She never scolded Gou Wa and Niu Niu either.
Therefore, Gou Wa and Niu Niu have a good impression of the old lady of the Li family.
"Gou Wa and Niu Niu have both grown a lot taller." The old lady of the Li family said with loving eyes, and she reached out to touch Niu Niu's hair.
Niu Niu didn't like being touched by strangers, so she didn't dodge out of politeness. But when the old lady of the Li family withdrew her hand, Niu Niu immediately trotted and hid behind Zhou Yubai.
"Who are you?" Zhou Yubai's face turned cold. He heard clearly what the old lady of the Li family said to Shen Qingli that day. He did not throw her out directly because of her age.
"Ahem, Yubai, I'm Qingli's grandmother." The old lady of the Li family was very dissatisfied in her heart, but she still had a gentle and kind smile on her face.
Zhou Yubai frowned slightly and said in a cold voice, "Qingli has severed her relationship with your Li family. Old lady, what are you doing here?"
Zhou Yubai usually wouldn't say much to others even if he hated them extremely, but today he spoke very sharply to the old lady of the Li family.
When Gou Wa heard this, he immediately walked quickly to the backyard, "Niuniu, brother will take you to wash your hands."
Niu Niu didn't know why, but when her brother said he was going to wash his hands and run to the backyard, she hurriedly followed him. Shen Qingli was about to be seen if she took a few more steps, so Gou Wa ran over quickly and pulled Shen Qingli back.
Although Niu Niu wanted to call her mother, she had a feeling that something was not right, so she stretched out her short legs to keep up with her brother and mother.
Shen Qingli was dragged to the backyard by Gou Wa with a confused look on her face.
"Mom, the one who came outside said she was your grandmother. I think Dad wants to send her away. You should not go out, or you will be embarrassed." Gou Wa said in a low voice.
Shen Qingli nodded and thought to herself, Gou Wa is so smart!
After just two sentences, the child understood Zhou Yubai's meaning and even analyzed that he was not allowed to pass...
If Gou Wa grows up, his future will be limitless.
Shen Qingli suddenly had an idea that she could chew on the smaller one in the future. Thinking of this, her smile became even brighter.
"Mom, why are you smiling so happily?" Niu Niu hugged Shen Qingli's thighs with both hands.
Shen Qingli picked up Niuniu, and took Gou Wa and the other two to sit on the platform, "Because Ruirui is smart, mother is happy."
"Niuniu is also smart." Niuniu immediately raised her head, indicating that she was also a smart girl.
Shen Qingli couldn't stop laughing because of Niu Niu's cute look.
The atmosphere in the backyard is warm and joyful.
The front yard is the complete opposite.
"Yu Bai, I know that my eldest son and his wife have gone a little too far..." the old lady of the Li family said tremblingly, looking like she was about to fall.
Zhou Yubai turned a blind eye.
Mrs. Li had no choice but to grit her teeth and continue, "Yu Bai, she knows how I feel about Qingli. Qingli is a kind-hearted child. She won't get angry with me because of her uncle and his wife."
"I came here today just to see her. I missed that child so much."
As the old lady of the Li family spoke, tears began to fall from her eyes, and she looked like she was missing her granddaughter so much that she was crying.
Zhou Yubai just continued to speak coldly, "Old lady, Qingli is not feeling well, I won't ask her to get up to see you, you go back, and also, we won't go to Li Yong's wedding."
The old lady of the Li family was stunned for a moment. As they were all smart people, she immediately understood what Zhou Yubai meant.
He said that if she couldn't see Shen Qingli, they wouldn't give the Li family a penny.
The old lady of the Li family looked at Zhou Yubai deeply, then turned and left.
Zhou Yubai watched the old lady of the Li family walk away and closed the door.
He always felt that the look that the old lady from the Li family gave him had a meaningful meaning. What did she want to do?
Zhou Yubai hurried to the backyard and saw Shen Qingli playing with Niu Niu, and Gou Wa fiddling with the herbs he had picked. The atmosphere was unusually harmonious.
Seeing him coming, Shen Qingli raised her eyes, "Gone?"
"Well, she came here to borrow family ties to ask for money. She must have understood what I meant when she left." Zhou Yubai paused, "She glanced at me before she left. I felt that she had bad intentions."
"When enemies come, we will stop them with soldiers; when water comes, we will block it with earth. Let's take it one step at a time." Shen Qingli said. She didn't take the Li family seriously. Nothing they did could affect her life.
"Yeah." Zhou Yubai responded, "The house is almost cleaned up. I have to go to work in two days."
"It's almost the busy farming season. I'll bring you water and food." Shen Qingli said softly. She didn't mind letting Zhou Yubai become the object of everyone's envy.
"I'm going too, Dad. I'm going too." Niu Niu raised her hand immediately. The little girl's chubby hands looked very cute.
"Okay, Niuniu will go too." Zhou Yubai responded with a smile.
Gou Wa also laughed beside him. Sometimes he felt that his happiness was a little unreal, but every time he saw his mother smiling so beautifully, she was right in front of him.
In the next two days, Zhou Yubai continued to be busy with housework.
Under Shen Qingli's guidance, he and Gu Qichuan plastered the walls of the house, and then painted them with latex paint. The floor was cement. Shen Qingli did not use tiles, as laying tiles is a technical job, and she did not want to make things difficult for the two laborers in the family.
Shen Qingli specially chose pink for Niu Niu's room, which gives a dreamy feeling as soon as you enter.
Niu Niu liked it very much at the first sight. Shen Qingli said that she had not finished yet and she would draw on the wall later. She was thinking about drawing a few pictures for Niu Niu to choose from.
Gou Wa’s room is sky blue, a color that is good for the eyes. Boys’ rooms are better designed with patterns, and they look good if they are not too fancy.
After painting the walls, Zhou Yubai and Gu Qichuan installed the heating together.
This way there won't be much chores to do at home, and Shen Qingli can just do it herself at home.
Three days later, on the morning when Zhou Yubai was going to work, someone from the village suddenly ran hurriedly into the yard.
"Brother Zhou, Doctor Shen, are you home?"
"exist."
Zhou Yubai responded that the person calling them outside was Zhuzi. Under Shen Qingli's treatment, Zhuzi was able to get out of bed and his health was getting better day by day.
Everyone in the village was surprised to find that Zhuzi was no longer stupid!
"Zhu Zi, what's the matter?" Shen Qingli asked.
"Yes, it's the Li family, Li Qiushu's family. Hey, come with me quickly and take a look. Something happened, something really happened." Zhuzi was still breathing hard and talking incoherently as he pulled Zhou Yubai away.
Shen Qingli turned around and told Gou Wa to close the door, then hurriedly followed.
