C187 escape

As time passed by, Li Laifu became more and more anxious. He couldn't sit still and move his body, so he couldn't help but stand up and walk to the door. Through the gaps in the door, he saw that Li Qingling and the others were still standing outside the courtyard.

With Li Qingling and the others there, he had no way of escaping.

He thought for a moment, looked at Old Li who was currently smoking, and forced himself to call out 'Father'.

Old Li exhaled the dry smoke in his mouth, then looked at Li Laifu faintly, and asked him, "What's wrong?"

After hesitating for a while, Li Laifu decided to confess.

His father only had one son left. If something happened to him, he wouldn't just stand by and watch. He would definitely think of a way to protect him.

After coming to this conclusion, he quickly said, "Father, let me be frank with you. It was I who poisoned Li Qingling's pond." Looking at Old Li's slightly changed expression, he continued: "I can't bear to see her act of breaking off all ties with us, so I wanted to teach her a lesson. I don't know if she really found out that I poisoned his, or if she's trying to trick me?"

He had suffered at Li Qingling's hands before, so he knew that Li Qingling was very cunning, and from time to time, he would dig a hole for people to jump into.

So this time he wasn't sure if she had really found him.

Hearing Li Laifu's honest words, Old Li took a few quick puffs of smoke and then heavily put it down, "You …" Realizing that his voice was overblown, he hurriedly suppressed his volume and pointed at Li Laifu with a trembling finger, staring at him with hatred. "Why are you so stupid when it comes to doing things? "Huh?" He was really going to die from anger because of this son of his.

To think that he felt that his son was a smart person, but to think that he would be so foolish.

"Son, I feel that you did well, if you had told your mother in advance, I would have gone to help you, and even destroyed that stupid chicken farm of Li Qingling's. If she doesn't have any more silver, let's see how she can continue being so arrogant."

"Shut your mouth! How dare you spout such nonsense here! You want me to mess with you?" Old Li was trembling from head to toe with Mrs. Liu's words. He had never seen a mother who would teach her son this way, it was simply unimaginable, "If you want to see your son dragged into prison, continue talking, I won't stop you."

The older Mrs. Liu's wife was, the more foolish she became.

If this carried on, their family would definitely be killed by her.

Being scolded by Old Li in such a way caused Mrs. Liu to shiver. She only had Li Laifu as her only son, so even if she were to beat him to death, she did not want to see his son being dragged away to prison.

She held Old Li's hand weakly, telling him to think of a way to save his son.

Old Li heaved a heavy sigh, "Time is of the essence, what good idea can I think of?"

"Then you better hurry up and think about it. If you can't, our son is finished. Li Qingling that b * tch, will definitely not let him go." Mrs. Liu was so afraid that she continuously shook Old Li's hand, and told him to quickly think of a way to help Li Laifu escape this trial.

"Stop being so noisy. If you keep going on like this, what can I think of?" Old Li withdrew his hands with force, his hands placed on his knees, frowning, he started to think.

Mrs. Liu pursed her lips tightly, her eyes staring straight at Old Li, not daring to disturb him again.

Old Li thought about it for a long time, but still couldn't think of any good methods. He looked at Li Laifu and asked him if he thought of any good methods.

Li Laifu immediately spoke out his thoughts, "Father, I wanted to escape, but when I run away, it will be difficult for Li Qingling and the rest to capture me."

"Where do you want to go? Will you never come back? "

"How can this be?" Mrs. Liu's eyes reddened, she grabbed Li Laifu's hand and choked with sobs: "Son, Mother only has you left. If you're not even going home, what do you want Mother to do?"

Li Laifu lightly patted the back of Mrs. Liu's hand, comforting her, "Mother, don't worry, I will not be back, once the limelight has passed, I will be back." If only he had money, he would buy a house outside and live there for the rest of his life.

Thinking about it, he looked at Mrs. Liu passionately, "But if I hide, there's nowhere else to hide. Mother, can you lend me some silver to buy a house to stay in outside?"

After he finished speaking, Mrs. Liu said in a troubled tone. She did not have much silver on her, would it be enough to buy a house?

That was the silver she had saved all her life. She was unwilling to take out all of it.

If she spent all her silver and met with some mishap, what would she do?

She had to prepare for a rainy day!

Hearing Mrs. Liu's words and realizing that there was hope, Li Laifu became a little excited in her heart as she held onto Mrs. Liu's hand, "Mother, then how much silver do you have? If not, I'll have to rent a house. " When he had a house outside, he said that she would take Huang Meiniang to live with him.

Thinking about the beautiful future, the worry in Li Laifu's heart also disappeared.

Just as Mrs. Liu wanted to answer Li Laifu, he was cut off by him, "So what if you get the silver? Can you get out? Li Qingling and the rest are in the courtyard, the moment you go out you will be discovered. " He could give Li Laifu money, but the problem was, how could he escape?

Li Laifu's excited emotions were splashed down by Old Li's cold water, calming his mind a little.

He held his forehead with both hands and started to think. What method would he use to be able to escape under the eyes of Li Qingling and the others without anyone noticing?

"Mom, is there a door at the back of our house?"

"Yes, there's a small door." Mrs. Liu nodded his head, "Son, do you want to escape?"

Li Laifu replied, "But the problem is, how do I get to the backyard?" He had to avoid Li Qingling and the others.

The backyard?

Old Li's mind suddenly lit up, he thought of the cellar, "Laifu, you can go from the cellar to the backyard." Their cellar had two openings, one in the kitchen and the other in the backyard. He could go down to the cellar.

Back then, when he was digging the cellar, for the sake of convenience, he had dug up two vents. Unexpectedly, he had helped his son this time.

Hearing that, Li Laifu's eyes lit up, the heavens were truly helping him.

Mother, hurry up and get me some silver. After getting the silver, I will escape from the cellar. I don't dare to delay any longer.

Hearing that, Mrs. Liu did not dare delay any longer, and immediately ran to her room, pulled out a box from under the bed, unlocked it, counted out fifty silver taels from inside and wrapped it with a handkerchief, then immediately ran out and stuffed it into Li Laifu's hands.

"Son, we only have fifty silver taels left. With so much silver, you should be able to buy a house to stay in." She had only saved 60 taels of silver in her entire life. Even when her son wanted to get married, she had insisted that she had no money and wanted to help him get married. She did not expect such a thing to happen, so she took out the money.

Hearing that it was only fifty silver, Li Laifu frowned, feeling dissatisfied in his heart: "Mother, is it really that much? Was it gone? This little bit of silver can't afford a house. " 'Mom couldn't have lied to me by not giving me any silver, right? '

He remembered that his mother had told him before that she didn't have the money to give him a wife. Now that she'd given him another fifty silver, would she lie to him again?

He looked at Mrs. Liu with some suspicion.

Mrs. Liu strongly patted Li Laifu's shoulder, and said somewhat sorrowfully. This is all the money that I have saved up for my entire life, and I'll give it all to you.

Li Laifu realised that he had said the wrong thing and extended his hand to shake Mrs. Liu's hand again. He apologized to Mrs. Liu and said that he did not mean it that way, he did not suspect her, but felt that she could not afford to buy a house with so much silver, and asked.

Being coaxed by Li Laifu like this made her even happier. She restrained the reluctance in his heart and gently pushed Li Laifu, telling him to leave quickly and not waste anymore time.

Li Laifu nodded his head. Without tidying up his clothes, he took the fifty silver and quickly ran to the kitchen. He removed the lid of the cellar and stepped down the ladder.

"Laifu, be careful in everything you do." Old Li looked at Li Laifu, exhorting him.

Mrs. Liu also followed, "Son, you must be alright outside. After the news is over, come home, do you understand?" When would he be able to see her son?

It was all Li Qingling's fault, if not for her, her son wouldn't have been forced to escape.

The selfish Mrs. Liu, she would never have thought, if Li Laifu had not poisoned the fish that Li Qingling killed, she would not have come to settle the score with Li Laifu.

"Dad, mom, you guys need to take care of yourselves as well. Wait for me to come back."

No matter how dissincere he was, in Old Li and Mrs. Liu's ears, he felt that their son was very filial.

Old Li responded. Just as he was about to say something, he heard Li Qingling knocking on the door.

Old Li's heart jumped when he heard this. "Come, Fu, hurry up and leave. Don't worry about us, we will deal with Li Qingling well." No matter what he did, he had to stall Li Qingling and let his son escape quickly.

Li Laifu also heard Li Qingling's voice? He nodded and quickly walked down the ladder.

After Li Laifu left, Old Li and Mrs. Liu frantically closed the lid of the cellar, restored the things, and then slowly walked into the living room.

They stood at the door for a while, and when they heard Li Qingling say that he wanted to smash the door, they slowly opened the door.

The moment he opened the door, he scolded Li Qingling before he could even clearly see who was outside, "Li Qingling, you are truly lawless. Don't think that I can't do anything to you just because you have an Elementary Scholar like you."

"Li Daye, I just wanted to tell you that the yamen runner is here."

Hearing Li Qingling's words, Old Li finally saw the few bailiffs standing in the courtyard.
