In Wenxiu's words, Old Madam Li's voice was the same as hers. Even if she were to turn into ashes, she would recognize her. The male voice was simply too unique. It was impossible to pretend that he didn't hear it.
This old woman scared out of her wits last night, why did she come again today?
Wenxiu muttered to herself. Moreover, it was stuffy and she could not tell what she was feeling. In short, it was not so good. However, she was in no hurry to open the door. Instead, she increased the speed in her hands and tried to wrap the candied fruits as soon as possible.
Business at the academy's entrance was bustling. Wen Xiu purposely wore twice the amount that day and planted two grass targets to insert the candied fruits. She could not afford to lose her hand here, nor did she dare to lose it.
Go on, go on, scream as much as the old woman likes.
As for her yard door, she would kick as much as she liked. It would be the best if she broke it, so she had a reason to make this damned woman pay.
Hmph, don't think that she's a vegetarian!
Old Madame Li didn't even knock or kick the door open. She was angry and angry. At the same time, she muttered in her heart: "Don't tell me that this little bitch knows why I'm here and is purposely hiding?" What about Li Jun? How could that unfilial son know?
It couldn't be. The idea Lady Wang gave her was something only the two of them knew. It was impossible for Wenxiu and Li Jun to know.
"Mother!"
"Creak —"
Just as Lady Wang was about to step forward to let Old Mrs. Li rest, the courtyard door that had always been tightly shut opened. The person who opened the door was none other than the tall and straight built and handsome Li Jun.
Li Jun looked at Old Lady Li and couldn't help but slightly furrow his brows. He was like a god squatting in front of a door as he coldly said, "Mother, why have you come?"
There was a clear coldness and estrangement in Li Jun's words, this made Old Mrs. Li very angry. Even Lady Wang at the side slightly frowned. When Li Jun saw his mother, wasn't her attitude a bit too cold? However, she quickly figured out how the old woman had treated her son so well. Li Jun's attitude had merely been a bit cold. If it were someone else, things would have already turned upside down.
"You unfilial son, your mother came, yet you refused to let your mother in. Is this how you treat your own mother? "I was in trouble when I gave birth to you. If I had known that you were so unfilial and an ingrate, I would have pushed you to the point of drowning you to death, saving myself from being angry at me now …"
Li Jun had already heard these words several times before. As long as he had heard them before, there was not a single ripple in his heart. On the contrary, he was a bit more curious about Old Madame Li's visit today.
If it had been anyone else, they would not have dared to come to the door for three years after what happened last night. However, his mother really was no other person. She had completely forgotten about it in the span of a single night. He didn't know whether to praise her for her good attitude or to insult her for her thick skin and fearlessness.
"Mom, the weather is cold, and it's getting late. If you have something to say, then say it. Sister-in-law is going back to prepare lunch!"
Li Jun calmly ordered them out of the restaurant without any change in expression. He didn't have the slightest intention of leaving the two of them to eat. The thought of giving Wang Shi a toothpick had also gone down the drain. She stood to the side with an embarrassed look on her face.
However, although Lady Wang felt awkward, she wasn't a peaceful person. She knew that Old Lady Li only knew how to shout and shout blindly, but in reality, she didn't have the slightest ability to do so. If he did not light the fire, the old lady would have gone back to her old home in a fit of rage.
He must not forget the important matter!
Thus, Lady Wang put on her sister-in-law's airs and said, "Third brother, you are in the wrong. In these few years that you have gone missing, mother has been crying every day, calling out your name in her sleep, her entire body was extremely weak and emaciated. "Now that you're back, you didn't return home to report on your safety, and even told your mother to come visit you. Tell me, if this gets out, what's the meaning of this?"
Li Jun did not object to Mrs Wang's pleasurable speech, but she was even more pleased. In her excitement, she could not differentiate between north, south, east and west, and muttered, "Our Li Family has face in the village too. Before you return, Wenxiu's family relied on your mother to take care of you, so it's fine if she doesn't appreciate your kindness. If it wasn't for you being my sister-in-law, you would have already grown up and become a man. You can't just listen to your own wife all the time. Otherwise, what's the difference between this and the scene where 'I forgot my mother when I had a wife'? "
"Third brother, mother's heart is in pain. Last night, I didn't sleep at all. Look at my mother's face. You are a piece of meat that fell from her stomach. Don't you feel heartache?" Sigh! "Say, what can you tell sister-in-law to say about you?"
Lady Wang was clamoring without the slightest bit of breathing. Her heart was set on helping this old woman, and the old woman was very satisfied with her decision. This daughter-in-law of hers was reliable and considerate.
Li Jun pursed his lips and didn't say anything. However, the pressure on his body instantly dropped by a few degrees, causing him to shiver uncontrollably. However, Old Lady Li and Lady Wang didn't feel that anything was amiss; they only thought the weather was colder.
"Sister-in-law, are you done? Then, you can bring your mother back! "
"You …"
Li Jun was silent for a while. Lady Wang thought that he was reflecting on it, but who knew that the moment he opened his mouth, she almost choked to death. She had been talking for so long, but was she just talking to herself?
Old Madame Li could not hold it in any longer and shouted, "Fine, even if you don't think much of me, your sister-in-law, your words will be useless. In that case, move out of this yard and live wherever you like. "My Li Family doesn't have you. This house belongs to my Li Family. I'll take it back now."
Finally, Old Lady Li revealed her purpose for coming here today.
Lady Wang originally wanted Madame Zhou to come and settle down after the disturbance. This was because she had calculated that Wenxiu definitely wouldn't give away the potato powder business, nor would she give the Li family half a copper coin. Therefore, when the old woman suggested that the place be taken, there was no reason not to do so.
Who knew that Madame Zhou did things unreliably? Even at this point, she did not see anyone.
However, it wasn't impossible for the old granny to suggest this. After all, Li Jun was too cold and detached to treat them like family.
Humph, you little slut, hide. Let's see how long you can hide!
Wenxiu was busy making candied fruits, but she didn't appear. However, Lady Wang thought that she was afraid, so she didn't dare to come out and meet people.
When Li Jun heard Old Lady Li's unreasonable words, his gaze suddenly sunk. There was no trace of happiness or anger on his face. His voice was still cold as he said, "Mother, are you trying to force our family to their deaths?"
Old Mrs. Li sneered, "You guys are unfilial first. If you don't take me as your mother, then I'm going to take back my house. Furthermore, that slut, Wenxiu, had made quite a bit of money just by showing her face. How could she force you to die? "
"Yes, mom is still the same as five years ago!"
Old Madam Li's heart skipped a beat when she heard Li Jun mentioning what it was like five years ago. Just as she was about to ask him what he meant, she heard Wen Xiu's voice. You really can say it! "
