Chapter 132 Mr. Li shows off his power
Old Master Li also saw what these people were thinking. He wanted to scold them, but he felt that scolding would not matter. It would just be a waste of time. In the end, he still had to solve these problems.
"All of you get out! There will be a lot of work to do at home in a few days. Whoever causes trouble for me will be kicked out of the Li family! Do you understand?" Grandpa Li was really angry this time. He looked at the people in the room with a cold face.
"If you think that this family doesn't need to rely on me anymore, and you don't need to listen to me anymore, then you can all get out of here naked! Go and earn your own living!"
"And you!" Mr. Li turned around and almost poked Mrs. Zheng on the forehead with his finger.
"If you cause me trouble again, get out of here too! What else can you do when you're old except causing me trouble? Don't make me cry, make a scene, or even hang myself. If you really dare to die, then go ahead and die!"
Old Mrs. Zheng leaned on Li Mei'e, pressing her chest and moaning loudly and softly, her eyes tightly closed. She looked to be in some pain, and it was not known whether it was because she was too uncomfortable. In short, she did not give any response to what Mr. Li said.
The others were even more afraid to speak. Originally, Hua and Li Dalang did not take Mr. Li's words to heart. After all, anyone could know how much Mr. Li cared about Li Zhengxue. It could be said that over the years, the Li family had almost used all their strength to provide for Li Zhengxue. How could Mr. Li possibly care about his eldest grandson?
"You don't have to count on studying seriously." Old Master Li swept a chilly gaze over them.
"If Zhengxue is in the same boat with you guys, get out of here! Don't forget who he has been eating and drinking with all these years!"
In a rage, Mr. Li threw away even the last layer of fig leaf. While cursing, Li Dalang and Hua Shi turned completely pale.
Everyone knows what their greatest reliance in the Li family is. If they lose Li Zhengxue, the amulet, their lives will be difficult in the future.
Li Dalang wanted to say something, but Hua, who was the first to react, had already grabbed him.
"Dad, calm down. No matter what time it is in our family, you are the one who has the final say. We do whatever you tell us to do. Not to mention us, who are just rough guys and know nothing, even those who have studied so much have to ask you for advice on everything, right?" Hua walked forward, picked up the empty pipe, and clumsily began to fill it with tobacco for Grandpa Li.
Normally, everyone has done this job, but Hua has done it the least often because she is very annoyed by the smell of cigarettes and dislikes the dirty oil on the pipe. Even if it gets on her hands and she washes them many times, there will still be a smell. But today, she took the initiative to do it to show her attitude.
It has to be said that Hua's words touched Mr. Li's heart. He snorted, and although his expression was still ugly, he did not stop Hua's actions.
"Dad, don't worry, we will all listen to you." Jin was unwilling to be left behind and did not have the final say. She also pulled Li Erlang who was standing blankly aside.
"Speak! You are dead!"
……
After Li Sanlang returned home, he saw Zhang's mother and others sitting on the kang, working and chatting happily. Even Li Zhengpin, who usually didn't like to talk, joined in saying a few words. Everyone had a happy smile on their face, and the scene looked particularly warm and beautiful under the candlelight.
Li Sanlang breathed a sigh of relief for no apparent reason, "I'm back!"
Zhang looked up at him and said, "Did you finish eating over there and come back? Are you full?"
Having returned home, Li Sanlang did not want to talk about those unhappy things. He nodded as if he was very relaxed and said, "He must have come back full. Where are the clothes? Is this the one for me?"
Since Li Sanlang said it was okay, no one wanted to ask about the people in the old house. Who knows what he might say would make them uncomfortable.
"It will be sewn soon. You can try it later." Zhang said with a smile.
On the third day after the glazed windows were finished, just when Li Mingxia wanted to start working on his small workshop, an autumn rain fell that night and the temperature dropped sharply.
Li Mingxia also received a reply from Yi Shuishui on the same day. The letter said that his family had an emergency and called him back, so he left without saying goodbye to Li Mingxia. Then he talked about the strawberries. Yi Shuishui said that there was no problem selling them to Xingchen, especially because he was very unhappy with his contemptuous attitude. He told Li Mingxia to raise the price sharply and make him bleed heavily!
There was no need for Yi Shuishui to explain this, as Li Mingxia had originally intended to do so.
The letter also mentioned the arrogant Hua Qian who followed Xingchen that day.
"She is the most shameless one. She used to like my brother, but he cut off the hairpin she was wearing with a sword. After that, she never dared to pester him again."
As Li Mingxia looked at the letter, he could almost imagine that Yi Shuishui must be gloating at this moment, because Li Mingxia, who was reading the letter at this moment, was also extremely happy.
The letter also mentioned her brother. Yi Shuishui said that her brother was a hundred times more handsome than Xingchen, and she would definitely let Li Mingxia meet him if she had the chance.
However, Li Mingxia had no interest in Yi Shuishui's brother. She only had one thing in her mind.
Since the strawberries can be sold, they need to be packaged well.
Although strawberries are what Xingchen needs, if they are beautifully packaged, Li Mingxia won’t feel guilty when raising the price.
After figuring this out, Li Mingxia felt happy and began to look forward to the arrival of Xingchen.
The construction plan of her small workshop was officially launched when the temperature rose again.
"Ten people are needed to complete the work within ten days. It doesn't need to be too detailed, but it must be sturdy and no corners should be cut." Li Mingxia stated his requirements, and Li Sanlang and Zhang began to study who in the village would be more suitable for the job.
As he spoke this, Li Mingxia suddenly thought of someone.
"Mom, if you ask me, why don't you let my uncle come? My uncle told us last time that he knows how to do bricklaying. Anyone can do this job. Anyway, my uncle will have a place to live when he comes." Li Mingxia said to Zhang.
Zhang was immediately tempted when she heard her daughter's words. The wage was fifteen cents a day, and when her elder brother came, she could also provide him with food and accommodation and some extra money. This was a good thing.
but……
Zhang glanced at Li Sanlang, feeling a little hesitant, and did not speak immediately.
