C47

Inside the main room of the Ye family estate.

The girl was sitting on the bed sewing a piece of cloth with her head down. It would be better to say that she was sewing a piece of cloth. It was a piece of green cotton cloth.

This was for her little brother, Bro Yao, to wear. Her mother had repeatedly warned her a few days ago that her little brother would come back in a month or two and make sure that he was ready before Bro Yao returned so that he could bring it back to the academy.

Even though she had restrained herself, she wanted to take a look outside the door to see if her parents had come back or not, but the actions of her hands could not fool anyone into making a mistake. She could only do it over and over again.

"..."

In the main house, three rooms.

"Ye Yiming, did you take the money from the house again?"

Li Zhiqing had an unhappy look on her face. She crossed her arms in front of her and stood upright beside the bed. She stared at Ye Yiming, who was still lying on the bed in the middle of the day, and asked in a low voice.

Ye Yiming turned around. Without even looking at Li Zhiqing, he said in a casual and disdainful manner,

"Yes, what is it? This grandpa only got money, do I have to report this to a woman like you? "

"Ye Yiming, you …"

Li Zhiqing's face slightly darkened. Her fair and beautiful face was actually slightly twisted. The usual charming aura of a wild beauty disappeared in an instant, leaving behind only a sharp, harsh, and nagging woman.

"You what?!" You what?! All day long, you are not going to let us have a peaceful life, right?! "

Ye Yiming suddenly lifted his blanket and frowned. His expression was so dark that it was scary. He interrupted Li Zhiqing's words without any trace of politeness. His gaze towards Li Zhiqing was filled with disgust, as well as resentment.

"I am not a peaceful person. Who is it that is not a peaceful person? You are always out in the open, and have never taken good care of this family. I have told you before that I was wrong. "

"But even if you are used to living outside, you can't just ignore this family. That money was saved up bit by bit with great difficulty, so it's for our brother Zong to study in the academy in the future.

"You are his biological father, you used that money to buy your own pleasure, why don't you feel sorry for your brother Zong? That is your son's future! "

Li Zhiqing suppressed the anger in her heart. Seeing that Ye Yiming was about to leave, she immediately grabbed Ye Yiming's sleeve and pleaded, hoping that he would take out the money on account of her son, Brother Zong.

Unexpectedly, Ye Yiming had pushed Li Zhiqing down to the ground with such force that his eyebrows were raised. He looked at his wife who was lying on the ground moaning in pain, and said coldly with an indifferent tone.

"He's my own son, why wouldn't I love him? He's still young, and he hasn't even reached the age to study yet. Why are you in such a hurry?" Stealing money, you're not going to give it to a man, are you? "

"Brother Zong's studies are naturally something my father and mother worries about. If it doesn't work out, wouldn't your rich and overbearing family still be supporting you?" When that time comes, wouldn't it be fine if you just come knocking and inform us?! "

"If you don't have anything to do, then stay at home and serve the old man well, do the work at home, and be good and obedient."

"Don't think about those useless things all day long. It's my fault!"

Li Zhiqing had a pained look on her face and her eyes were slightly red. She rubbed her elbow, which just happened to be touching the ground, which was extremely painful. However, she seemed not to find such treatment strange.

"If you really love Zong brother, then leave the money behind. Give us two a path to survival."

"I won't pursue the rest of the matter. Leave the money behind …"

Ye Yiming glanced at Li Zhiqing. The impatience in his eyes gradually deepened as he said,

"Keep what? Don't tell me that all the elders in the village say that they want to marry a wife to provide for them, that they want to work at a faster rate, and that they don't just look at their appearance, that they won't be able to regret it! "

"Why did I marry you? "She's even the daughter of a rich family. I only took a few extra coins, what's with the petty personality?"

After he finished speaking, he lifted his leg and was about to leave. Seeing this, Li Zhiqing's eyes immediately turned red. Ignoring her usual reserved manners, she half crawled and rushed forward, tightly hugging Ye Yiming's leg.

"You can't take it away. Don't you know about the situation at home? With those acres of land, those pigs and chickens … "A Bro Yao from the family who serves as a concubine is almost unable to bear the burden when he goes to school …"

"Your words sound good, but you love our brother. In the future, you will also give our brother some money, but what about the money? Where does the money come from? "

"Mother doesn't have any money left. How much of the dowry I brought with me have you taken all these years?" I never said a word about you before, did I? "

"Now, I just hope that you will also feel heartache and pity Zong brother. Don't take away the family's money again …"

Ye Yiming was annoyed by the tugging. He looked at Li Zhiqing's crying face and noticed that there was no girl from Red Lane, who was as beautiful and gentle as her. Ye Yiming actually slapped Li Zhiqing's face and kicked towards her heart.

"Scram!" "Don't bother this old man if you have nothing to do …"

Li Zhiqing looked at Ye Yiming's back as he left, his face ashen and filled with sorrow. She cupped her hands around her heart, and her body suddenly trembled as she spat out a mouthful of blood, staring at the bright red blood and phlegm. She choked on her words, thinking back to the past, her heart was filled with resentment.

At that time, she was still the young miss of Niu Village's Li family. Although she crawled out from the stomach of an aunt, her aunt was favored, and even her status and treatment were much higher than the other concubines and concubines in the family. She had grown up in a comfortable position, and like the young miss of a town, her fingers weren't touched by the spring water …

Sadly, hateful. Two streams of tears flowed down Li Zhiqing's pale and sorrowful face. She suppressed her weeping and recalled the time where she regretted and hated the past!

It was a summer's evening, she remembered, when she was a girl and loved to play. On that day, as if possessed, she ignored her aunt's advice and, after secretly getting her face red from her mirror dressing, ran to the river by herself.

When the young her saw that there was no one around her, she mischievously took off her embroidered shoes and soaked her tender feet in the icy cold water.

At home, although she ate well, drank well, and had the protection of her aunt, no one dared to disobey her. But on the surface, everything still depended on her mother's expression.

Ever since she was young, she had always been a well-informed person. It was rare for her to go against her aunt like this.

She had enjoyed playing in the water, and had been very satisfied. However, she had never thought that she would overdo it and drag her embroidered shoes into the river. She stood up in fright, barefooted, not giving chase, not giving chase.

Until a white-clothed youth appeared, carrying her pair of wet embroidered shoes and slowly walked over. He was very white and clean. Behind him was a sky full of multicolored light. His appearance was dazzling, and he said with a smile:

"Miss, is it your shoes?"

She shyly and uneasily took the embroidered shoes from the youth's hands. Without putting them on, she turned around and ran away. From behind her, the youth's voice rang out,

"Girl, you haven't worn shoes yet! "Don't run, be careful not to scratch …"

As she ran, she listened attentively. She only felt that the young man's voice was so melodious. His white clothes looked so beautiful, but his heart had already promised him something.

Later on, when the aunt would always pick out people for her, she would shake her head and not say a word. Anxiously, the aunt pinched her arm and said:

"What kind of family do you want?"

She was in so much pain that she cried, but she did not speak. After repeating herself over and over again, the aunt sighed and said:

"Do you have someone you love? If there is, I'll tell Mother. Mother will arrange it for you, and I won't beat you up. If you marry earlier, I'll be able to relax a little. "

At that time, her father's affection for her aunt had already thinned out. In the end, her aunt had become old and decrepit, unable to keep her father in her heart any longer.

Her aunt's compromise with her was only because she was afraid that if the marriage were to drag on any longer and she could no longer say anything in front of her father, then she might not be able to find a good person to marry and live a good life.

The young man in white from before was the unruly Ye Yiming!

On the day of her marriage, she was full of joy as she awaited his arrival. She was looking forward to living together with him until the end of his life, during the small days when both husband and wife raised their eyebrows … However, he didn't know that the other party was a person who knew the face but not the heart!

Her husband, take her dowry to the town to look for a girl, night after night! Her husband had tried to persuade her later, and she had ended up beating him or scolding him! Her husband had stolen her hairpin, bought her wine and meat, and went to court her parents-in-law's happiness. However, he had never thought about what she would do …

A pair of embroidered shoes was her entire life, a life that was even more bitter than that of Huang Lian …

Li Zhiqing suddenly saw her son, Zong brother, standing in front of her, wiping away his tears in fear, crying softly.

She quickly wiped away the tears on her face and sat up, forcing out a smile.

"Just now, mother accidentally fell, so she cried. When did our Zong Clan come back? Why didn't you just stay by my mother's side?"

Zong brother seemed to have found comfort in his words as he threw himself into Li Zhiqing's embrace, hugging her tightly.

Li Zhiqing touched her son's warm body, his eyes flashing with determination and coldness.

In her entire life, she had relied on this son of hers. Whoever blocked her son's path, she would cripple them!
