The Strong Wife From Peasant Family Chapter 130 Spreading

When Old Li returned home after finis.h.i.+ng his work in the fields, he felt that the atmosphere in the house was a little strange. He looked at Mrs. Liu who was frowning and asked with a frown, what's wrong with her?

Mrs. Liu used her hands to cover her eyes as tears started to roll down her cheeks. She was crying as she said, "Sorry for getting rich …"

"So what if you're rich?" Old Li's heart skipped a beat, he looked around but he could not find any trace of Li Laifu, "Where did Laifu go? Where was he? What happened? "

In total, he had given birth to two sons. His youngest son was already gone, so if something happened to his eldest son, how could he bear it?

Old Li thought about many bad things in his mind, he shook his head in fear, and looked towards Mrs. Liu, "Don't cry, what happened? "Explain it to me clearly."

Mrs. Liu raised her head and looked at Old Li. Seeing his dark expression, she did not dare continue crying, and wiped her tears away with her sleeve, then spoke out in a choked voice, "Old man, the Huang Family from the next village said that if we do not have the money, they will marry the Huang Family's young lady. What should we do?" After saying that, she took the opportunity to wipe the corner of her eyes, stopping her tears and spitting them out.

So it was for this that he thought something big had happened. Old Li glared at Mrs. Liu and sat on the chair.

"Old man, say something!" After waiting for a while, when Mrs. Liu saw that Old Li was focused on smoking and did not have any reaction, she could not help but open her mouth to urge him.

Old Li slowly puffed out the smoke in his mouth. He looked up at Mrs. Liu and blandly said, "It's fine if we marry, what does it have to do with us?" The price that the Huang Family offered for a betrothal gift was thirty taels of silver, he could marry three of his daughter-in-law.

It was like a lion opening its mouth wide, he did not really agree to this marriage at all.

Seeing Old Li's indifferent tone, Mrs. Liu stared at him with his eyes wide, "Old man, what are you saying? "It's not like you don't know that your son is going to marry that girl from the Huang family. If that girl were to get married, then he wouldn't be able to take a wife for the rest of his life." She started to cry again, "Don't tell me you want to see your son be single for the rest of his life? "Huh?"

Although she was also angry at the Huang Family for wanting so many betrothal gifts, but her son really liked that Huang Family girl!

I wonder what aphrodisiac my son drank? He must marry that girl from the Huang family.

As a mother, she couldn't bear to see him be single all his life, so she had no choice but to compromise.

Old Li's brows creased even more tightly. He silently smoked a few more mouthfuls of smoke, and after a long while, he opened his mouth again: "What kind of man has no wife? "Why are you not guarding that Huang Family's daughter?"

"What's the use of telling me about it? Say it to your son. If you can persuade him, then go and persuade him! "

Mrs. Liu acted like she didn't want to care either, which gave Old Li a headache, "Where did you get rich from? Call him back! " If even his son wasn't here, then who was he supposed to talk to?

"When he heard that the Huang Family wanted to marry the Huang Family's daughter to someone else, he was in a bad mood so he went back to his room." Mrs. Liu stood up from the chair, "I will go and call him out, you can talk to him, I can't!"

With that said, he strode towards Li Laifu's room.

She called out to Li Laifu a few times at the door, who slowly opened it. He asked weakly, "What is Mrs. Liu doing?"

Mrs. Liu winked at him and said loudly: "You have to find you, hurry up and come out!"

Li Laifu raised an eyebrow, lowered his head, and followed behind Mrs. Liu into the living room.

"Dad, you're looking for me?"

Seeing Li Laifu's dejected look, a flash of disappointment pa.s.sed through Old Li's eyes.

Because Li Laifu was the eldest son, he had to inherit his family's business and bear the heavy responsibility of raising his parents.

His eldest son had wanted to make a name for himself no matter what he wanted from a young age.

However, her eldest son did not develop as she had hoped. After studying for so long, he had not even managed to pa.s.s the Elementary Scholar examinations and return to farm. He could not do well either.

He really didn't know what he would do.

"Are you going to the girl from the Huang family?"

Li Laifu raised his head and quickly looked at Old Li, then lowered his eyes and said, "So what if you want to marry, our family doesn't have a betrothal gift for you." He let out a deep sigh and sat dejectedly on the chair, looking like a man who had lost his heart.

Old Li squinted his eyes as he looked at Li Laifu, and then smoked a mouthful of smoke, "You have read so many books, don't you understand the same thing? For a man to be without a wife, why must he cling on to that lady? "

pursed his lips and said softly, "After seeing so many ladies, I have already taken a fancy to her. If not for her, I would never want to marry again in my life." He must definitely marry Huang Meiniang, "Father, you don't need to persuade me otherwise, my heart has already been made up."

Old Li clenched his teeth, he was slightly angered by Li Laifu, he snorted and said, then decided not to marry, you are a bachelor in this life!

For the sake of a girl, what future did he have?

Thinking about his youngest son who had already disappeared, Old Li felt a wave of melancholy.

If he had stopped the old woman that year, his youngest son might still be alive.

Unfortunately …

"Why are you so cruel to this old man? His son had been a bachelor all his life. Was there any light on his face? "Huh?" Upon hearing Old Li's words, she immediately could not take it anymore, slapped her thigh, and shouted: "I don't care, since my son likes that girl from the Huang family, then marry her!"

Hearing that, Li Laifu felt a burst of joy in his heart, but he did not dare show it on his face.

Old Li tapped on the cigarette in his hand, looked at Mrs. Liu and said, "All of the family's money is with you, you can pay for the money!"

Suddenly, Mrs. Liu's face froze, and she spoke in embarra.s.sment: "How could there be so much money in our family? "If my family had so much money, I would have gone to get them a betrothal gift long ago. Why would I need to wait until now?" The money she held in her hand was not to be used as she pleased.

"It's fine if she doesn't have money, but don't even think about being a Huang Family's daughter." Old Li hardened his heart, "Their family wants so many betrothal gifts the moment they ask for it, so it can be seen that their luck isn't that good? If you marry her back, it will inevitably be like your previous wife, a disaster to the family. "

When he heard that the Huang Family wanted so many betrothal gifts, he was displeased.

Li Laifu bit his lips hard and raised his head to look at Old Li, "Father, Miss Huang can read and write, it's understandable that her family would want so many betrothal gifts." Seeing Old Li's dark expression, he did not continue to defend the Huang Family, "Forget it, let's just listen to Father.

With that, he stood up and shook his head with a sigh. Then, he turned around and was about to return to his room.

The moment he had placed his back on Old Li, he had given Mrs. Liu a meaningful glance.

The moment Mrs. Liu received his gaze, she ran over and pulled Li Laifu's hand, and started crying loudly. She was crying as she scolded Old Li.

After an unknown amount of time, Old Li's head was starting to hurt from her squabbling. He placed the pipe on the table and shouted, "Enough, don't cry."

His roar scared Mrs. Liu and he immediately reached out to pinch her, causing her to start crying again.

"Come rich, mom has let you down. Mom has no ability, so I don't have the money to marry you. I'll let you be a virgin for life. Mom has let down all the ancestors of the Li family!"

Old Li rubbed his temples and his tone softened, "Alright, don't cry anymore, it hurts my head. Tell me, how much silver do we have left? Let me think of a way to deal with the rest! "

This was the only son in the family. As his father, there was no way that he would allow him to be a bachelor for the rest of his life.

Since her son liked the Huang family's girl so much, she wouldn't marry him. Thus, she might as well comply with his wishes!

Mrs. Liu and Li Laifu looked at each other, then said: "Old man, do you know about the matter of Xiao Ling getting married?"

"Yes, I heard." When he came back from the fields, the villagers congratulated him on the way back, and he found out.

That granddaughter of his made him feel quite proud of her.

Mrs. Liu walked to Old Li's side and sat down, she then spoke to Old Li in a low voice, "We are Xiao Ling's grandparents, shouldn't she be marrying out of our family?" If the old man agreed, this matter would be much easier to handle.

No matter what, she had to get this old man to agree to her request today.

Old Li thought for a while, his youngest son's wife was no longer around, Li Qingling's situation was unique, as his grandfather, he indeed had to take care of this matter, "She better marry from our family." This way, she wouldn't be talked about in the future.

Hearing that, Mrs. Liu's eyes lit up, she hurriedly forged iron, and continued, "Then the betrothal gift from the Liu Family should also be brought over to our house, for us to help Xiao Ling set up the dowry." She stared intently at Old Li, praying in her heart for him to quickly nod his head.

Old Li turned his head to look at Mrs. Liu, and as he glanced at her, he asked with some doubt, "Weren't you talking about the matter of getting rich just now? Why did you come all the way here? " He had been husband and wife with Mrs. Liu for dozens of years, so he knew her character.

If Mrs. Liu didn't have that thought, she wouldn't have mentioned this for no reason.

The old man's eyes were sharp, and he was able to see through it.

Mrs. Liu looked into Old Li's eyes, nodded calmly, and said righteously: "Xiao Ling is our granddaughter, it is only natural that we keep her betrothal gift." The more she thought about it, the more she felt that it was reasonable. "As a niece, she has to think for her Uncle Uncle, right?"

Which family married a girl and didn't keep her betrothal gift for their son or grandson to use as a betrothal gift?

"Are you crazy?" Old Li stared at Mrs. Liu in disbelief. She could even say such words.
