After hearing the plan, Lady Sun couldn't help but marvel.
"Shu, you're so clever! This way, we can take care of them all without lifting a finger!"
The thought of getting rid of all three scoundrels in the house at once filled Sun with an overwhelming urge to run home with her five daughters.
In the past, she would feel terrified every time she returned home, but now she only feels extremely happy!
When Li Chuanzong returned from outside, he saw that it was already dark and Sun Shi and her five good-for-nothings had not yet come back to boil water for him to wash his feet. He was annoyed when he saw Sun Shi leading her five good-for-nothings back with a happy expression.
Even the five money-losing kids looked delighted.
A normal husband will be happy when he sees his wife and children happy.
But Li Chuanzong was different. Whenever he saw his wife and children happy, he would think of the injustice he suffered at home because Sun could not give birth to a son.
If he, a noble man capable of procreation, is unhappy, how can his wife and children, who are unhappy as a result, be happy?
How could they be so happy!
"Damn it! I've never seen such a lazy woman! It's so late at night and you're not home serving your man, you dare to wander around outside! You're obviously a restless slut!"
A burning rage raged in Li Chuanzong's heart. He grabbed a carrying pole from the side and charged at Sun.
Just as the carrying pole was about to strike Sun, Da Niu quickly led her five younger sisters to block Sun's path.
"We won't allow you to hit your mother!"
"Why should I listen to you five good-for-nothings! If you dare to stand in my way, I'll beat you all up too!"
Li Chuanzong spat impatiently, about to make a move, when he saw Da Niu pull out a large handful of copper coins from her bosom.
"Dad, don't hit Mom! Mom didn't go out wandering around. She took us to catch crayfish to exchange for money!"
Li Chuanzong snatched the copper coins, counted them, and immediately burst into laughter.
Normally, when Da Niu and her friends catch crayfish to sell, they can only get about twenty coins, but today they got fifty coins!
Fifty coins was enough for him to buy two catties of wine!
He immediately forgot about hitting someone, squinted as he held the coin and smelled it, his tone unusually gentle.
"How come you caught so many crayfish today? And so much money! You must have caught at least ten pounds."
Upon hearing this, Erniu and Sanniu pursed their lips and remained silent.
Sun also lowered her head.
Only Da Niu dared to reply, "We were lucky today. We found a lobster hole. It's very secluded inside, and there are lots of crayfish there."
As she spoke, Da Niu shrank back slightly, looking rather awkward.
Li Chuanzong felt that they all seemed a bit off today, but he was thinking about using the money to buy alcohol.
In order to prevent Li Dagen from discovering the money, he told Liang Yaozu this, and without thinking too much, he quickly took the money into the house and hid it.
The first step of the plan has been a success!
The six exchanged glances, and Madam Sun whispered, "With so much money, he'll definitely go buy wine first thing tomorrow morning. Who's going to Liang Yaozu's side?"
Da Niu: "I'll go. Only I'm the most suitable person to go, so they won't suspect anything."
The next morning, before dawn, Li Chuanzong secretly took the money and went to a nearby winery that specialized in brewing wine, where he bought two jin of liquor.
Ancient wines had a low alcohol content.
However, drinking two jin (1 kg) of that will definitely make you drunk, and you'll smell of alcohol on your body.
In order to avoid Li Dagen discovering that he had stolen money to buy wine, Li Chuanzong originally did not intend to drink the two jin of wine in one go.
However, in order to support Liang Yaozu's education, Li Dagen would give all the money in the family to Liang Yaozu.
Li Chuanzong was broke and hadn't drunk alcohol in a long time, but once he started, he couldn't stop.
In less than an hour, he had finished both jin of wine, reeking of alcohol, and staggered home.
He had just reached his doorstep when he ran into Li Dagen and Liang Yaozu, who were returning home.
Seeing that the two of them had gotten off the oxcart, Li Chuanzong went up to them and asked, "Father Yaozu, what are you doing in town today for no reason?"
Liang Yaozu gave Li Chuanzong a disgusted look, then covered his nose and remained silent.
Li Dagen angrily scolded him: "Smell yourself! How much money did you drink? Did you steal money from home to buy alcohol?!"
Oh no! He forgot he still smells of alcohol on him!
If Father knew he stole fifty taels to buy wine, he would definitely punish him severely.
In front of Li Dagen, Li Chuanzong lost all the arrogance he had shown in front of the weak woman, Sun. He cowered like a quail.
"I...I didn't..."
Even Li Chuanzong himself wouldn't believe these words, let alone Li Dagen.
Li Chuanzong couldn't help but sigh in his heart, "It's over, it's over, I'm going to get beaten again." However, the pain that was supposed to come was delayed. All that could be heard was a sigh from Li Dagen.
"Forget it, I have things to do today! I can't be bothered with you!"
After saying that, he led Liang Yaozu into the inner room.
Liang Yaozu glanced at Li Dagen, having not uttered a single word to him from beginning to end, his disdain evident in his expression.
Why did you let him off so easily today?
Li Chuanzong was taken aback at first, then remembered Liang Yaozu's gaze and couldn't help but mutter curses.
"Damn it, what are you? You're just a scholar's son! I'm your elder, how dare you look at me like that!"
"Hmph! If it weren't for the fact that your brain is useful and I don't need to use it to come up with ideas to get the braised food recipe from the Liang family, I would have beaten you up long ago!"
"Father, haven't you gotten the recipe for braised food yet?"
Erniu's voice suddenly appeared behind Li Chuanzong.
Li Chuanzong turned his head and saw Erniu and Sanniu looking at him with curiosity.
Li Chuanzong narrowed his eyes: "What do you mean by this?"
Erniu and Sanniu exchanged glances and started talking one after another.
“We didn’t mean anything by it. We just saw my older sister give you the money last night, so we went to the Liang family to find Brother Yaozu.”
"It seems like Yaozu got something good from his eldest sister. He came to see Grandpa early this morning and went to town with him."
"They bought a lot of good things when they went to town this time. The Liang family had a lot more meat and vegetables, not to mention that Brother Yaozu even got a new set of clothes."
"With Grandpa and Brother Yaozu being so generous, we assumed they had already gotten their hands on the braised food recipe."
"But since you don't know, Father, then you probably didn't succeed."
"Otherwise, Father, you are Grandpa's own son. Grandpa can't possibly not tell you anything or share anything with you, can he?"
After Erniu and Sanniu finished speaking, they left hand in hand with smiles, leaving Li Chuanzong behind with a gloomy face.
"Damn it! If they really don't give me a single bit, I'll kill them all!"
