Chapter 143 Book

After the grain was sold and the famine was paid off, a big stone in Mrs. Xu's heart fell to the ground and began to think about other things at home.

But since the last time she privately took the family's money to repay Xu Laoer's gambling debts, Old Xu no longer believed that she was in charge of the money. This time, the money for selling grain was no exception. When she got home, she was locked in a box and the key was tied to Mr. Xu's belt.

Mrs. Xu struggled all night. After lying down and discussing with Mr. Xu for a long time, the two almost quarreled again, and finally got 100 yuan.

Early the next morning, Mrs. Xu went to Xu's house with the money and called him up from the quilt and said, "Second, don't sleep. Why is your child so relieved?"

Xu Laoer turned over in a daze, rubbed his eyes and said, "Mom, what's wrong? Don't you finish your work? Why don't you let me sleep in?"

"I know how to sleep!" Mrs. Xu slapped him, "Don't you want to pick up your daughter-in-law quickly?" It's going to take a month, and it's time for Xiaoyuezi to do it. Look at your room, which is like a mess. Can no woman clean it up?

Xu Laoer yawned, lay on the kang and didn't want to get up. He said lazily, "She must be noisy when she comes back. It's better to be quiet like this."

"You child..." Mrs. Xu directly reached out and picked up her son. "Hurry up, wash your face, pick it up, and change into clean clothes. I asked your father for 100 yuan. You take it to buy something, say a few words to soften it, and bring your daughter-in-law back."

When Xu Laoer heard that he was rich, he was a little energetic. He got up and grabbed his hair and said, "What if she doesn't come?"

"You elmukumps, your father has separated you now. Although my mother is reluctant to part with you, your daughter-in-law has long wanted to separate. She will definitely be happy. If you say something nice to coax her, won't you take it back?" Mrs. Xu said with hatred, "Take Yingzi with you. No matter how angry you are, you will see more than half of the child."

"Oi, I can't go!" Xu Laoer got up, rubbed his painful ears, cleaned up, and asked Yingzi to go to Li's house together.

Qiligang, where the Li family is located, is not too far from Xingyuan Village. The father and daughter arrived half an hour after walking. They found a small shop to buy something to carry, and went straight to Li's house.

The autumn harvest of the Li family has not been finished yet, and the men in the family are on the field. Just Mrs. Li and Li are at home, one is lying on the bed and the other is feeding chickens in the yard.

Xu Laoer took something and went straight into the door and said, "Mom, I'm coming, what..."

When Mrs. Li saw someone coming, she fixed her eyes and immediately raised her eyebrows. She splashed chicken food all over Xu's face and cursed, "Xu Qingcheng, you son of a bitch, you still have the face to come to my house!"

As she scolded, her eyes touched the ground. When she saw the broom at her feet, she picked it up and hit Xu Laoer in the face. She couldn't stop scolding: "You conscienceless bastard, you left your daughter-in-law for a month and ignored it. Have you been long-hearted? You go out to gamble and play with women, and your daughter-in-law washes and cooks for you at home to have children. Now that the child is gone, instead of taking good care of her, you don't even face her. I was really blind at the beginning. How could I marry my daughter to such a shameless thing..."

Xu Laoer threw things on the ground, hugged his head and explained, "Mom, I used to recover from my wounds and lay at home for more than ten days, and then caught up with the autumn harvest at home. My family used to pull the famine. Am I and I not ashamed to come? Now I have sold food. I I quickly bought something and came over."

"Mother, don't fight, don't fight." Yingzi was also busy pulling the fight aside, "My father is really sick. He has been lying at home for half a month!"

"You are also a little conscienceless person. Don't you even know how to see your mother?" When Mrs. Li saw her granddaughter, although she was slightly less angry, she still looked calm and her tone was very bad.

"I was also sick for many days and took the medicine for a while before I recovered." Xu Yingzi explained with some confidence that she knew her own illness, but in fact, it was just because she was in a bad mood.

When Mrs. Li heard that the child was also sick, she calmed down a little and looked at Yingzi and said, "It's really thin and doesn't look good. What do you think this is? Why are adults and children not good? Hurry into the house. It's sunny outside and go into the house to see your mother."

Xu Yingzi turned into the room. Xu Laoer picked up the things he had just thrown away with a shy face and wanted to follow his daughter into the house.

Mrs Li blocked the door, grabbed the things in his hand, went to the door of the courtyard and threw it out, pointed to the outside and said, "Who let you in? Don't dirty my land!" Get out of here, where did you come from, or do you want me to knock you out?"

"I..." Xu Laoer blushed and felt more embarrassed when he saw that his neighbor was already looking out, but he remembered Mrs. Xu's previous words and planned to work harder.

"Well, my father has already said that the family will be separated. The house and land in my hometown have been given to me. I will take Yingzi Niang back. After the Mid-Autumn Festival, we will go back to our hometown. At that time, we will start again. I promise that I will never go out again and live a good life.

Mrs Li was a little moved when she heard this. After all, the previous incident was so big and humiliating that she has not dared to go out until now, for fear of being pointed out, but if it is really as Xu Lao Er said, she will go back to Xu's hometown. She not only avoids the troubles of gossip, but also has a little security, and her life is gone. With the pressure of parents-in-law, the daughter's life can also be better.

Although he thought so, his face was still black and cold, and his anger had not subsided. He thought that he had to embarras Xu Laosan again, and he could not be forgiven so easily.

"Come on, don't tell me this much. What can you do when you go back to your hometown? Without your parents, you don't know your surname. If you gamble on whoring again, there won't even be anyone to redeem you."

"At least here, my mother's house is still close. If there is anything, I can still take care of my daughter. If you are asked to abduct back to your hometown, the mountains are far away, I don't think it's easy to see your daughter at a glance. If she is bullied by you, there is no place to say!"

Mrs Li slammed and closed the courtyard door, but in fact, there was no book in it. She thought that as long as Xu Laoer said a few more words to soften, apologize a few more times, and let himself earn some face in front of his neighbors, he would open the door and let him in.

Who knows that Xu Laoer is a smooth donkey and can't stand it at all. If he hadn't been told by Mrs. Xu for a long time before he came, he might not have been able to say those soft words just now.

At this time, she was kicked out of the house by her mother-in-law, and then asked her neighbors to point out a joke. Suddenly, she was furious and spat at the door of the Li family and said, "Bah, your daughter has been with me for more than ten years, and she hasn't starved to death. What else should I come to invite her? Are you still the eldest daughter of sixteen or seventeen?"

Mrs Li was so angry that she fell down and almost breathed. After a long time, she recovered and opened the door to scold, but there was no trace of Xu Laosan at the door.

"What to see, what to see!" Mrs. Li shouted at the people watching the bustle, slammed the upper door and inserted it with a latch before going back to the room.

Xu Laosan left the Li family, but did not return to Xingyuan Village. Instead, he asked someone directly in the village and found a poor scholar who usually wrote letters to others to make money. He entered the door and said, "Brother, can you write a letter?"

The scholar did not raise his head and said, "Hugh book, two words and one article, plus five pieces of paper and two words of ink."

Xu Laosan has never found anyone to write anything. He doesn't know whether the price is high or low, but at this time, he is angry and takes out all the copper coins in his arms and counts them. Seeing that there are still more than 30 cents, he slapped on the table and said, "Write a letter!" How much does it count!"

"What's your name? Where are you from? What's your wife's surname? Why did you divorce your wife?" Xiucai counted the copper plates, a total of 37, put them into the drawer on the right hand side, then took out the paper and spread it out, pressed them with a ruler, and asked after dipping the pen in ink.

"My name is Xu Qingcheng, from Xingyuan Village. My daughter's surname is Li, and Li Zishu's Li. She is fierce and talkative, and she is not good to my parents. I don't have a son yet. A few days ago, she was pregnant. Our family couldn't wait to provide for her. As a result, somehow the child fell away. Her mother's family came to beat me and forced my father. My mother went to lend them two pieces of money, and then took them away. I came to borrow someone today. Her family not only didn't let me go, but also kicked me out. I can't hold my breath. This daughter-in-law can't take it!" Xu Laoer said a lot in one breath. Of course, these words have been concealed and have many subjective colors.

The scholar didn't care about this. He thought about it for a moment. He wrote down the two big letters of the book of divorce, and then read it while writing: "Xu Qingcheng, a writer, a native of Xingyuan Village, Linyi County, Pingshun Prefecture, determined Li as his wife by the media. After passing through the door, there were more women and no children. Now he returned to his family and listened to remarry. There is no difference. The book is true."

After writing, put down the pen, moved the ruler, picked up the paper to dry the ink, and handed it to Xu Laosan, "60 words are just right."

Xu Laosan can't read either. Just now, Xiucai didn't understand it, so he asked, "What does it mean?"

"That is to say, after your wife passed through the door, she made a lot of mistakes and didn't give birth to a son, which is in line with the seven rules. If you want to take her home, it has nothing to do with you whether she remarries or anything in the future."

"Okay, that's it!" Xu Laosan took the book and asked Xiucai for a little paste to go out. He returned to the door of Li's house and pasted the book on the door panel.
