When Old Li and the others came up to greet him, he regained his pleasant demeanor and started to exchange greetings with Old Li and the others.Mrs. Liu followed along. When she saw the box in the hall, her eyes shone brightly.
This box seemed very beautiful, but the things inside must be even more precious.
She rubbed her hands together, walked to Li Qingling"s side, and asked in a low voice, "Xiao Ling, the things that the genius doctor brought back, is it for you?"
If it was given to Li Qingling, then she … She sent it.
There was no need to look at Mrs. Liu to know what she was planning.
She smiled faintly and shook her head. No.
Hearing that, Mrs. Liu"s eyes bulged, she looked at Li Qingling in disbelief. The Divine Doctor had brought back so many things, how could it be just his luggage? There must be something among them for that stinking girl Li Qingling.
This d.a.m.ned girl was very smart. It was impossible for her to know what was inside.
She quietly cleared her throat, and acted closer to Li Qingling, "The genius doctor must have come back because of you getting married, right?" Otherwise, how could he have come back for no reason at all?
It was said that it would take a long time to get back to them from the capital.
She had never been to the capital before, so she didn"t know if that was true.
With regards to this matter, it was even more impossible for Li Qingling to tell her, "I"m not too sure either. Once Grandpa Xue comes back, before he even said anything to me, you guys came over.
This time, when Grandpa Xue came back, he didn"t know if he would be able to shock Mrs. Liu and make it difficult for her to casually hit on her betrothal gift.
Mrs. Liu secretly glared at Li Qingling, feeling extremely dissatisfied in his heart. This d.a.m.ned girl, did not even place her in her eyes at all.
However, on the surface, she did not dare to offend Li Qinglin, as she was afraid that Li Qingling would kick her out in one go.
She hadn"t even seen what was in the box yet, so how could she be willing to leave?
She spoke a few more words to Li Qingling in an indifferent tone before stealthily walking to the side.
She knew that Mrs. Liu would not let go of the thoughts in her heart that easily. She would definitely find a chance to see what was in the chest.
This grandmother of hers, she didn"t dare say that she had a thorough understanding of her, at least seventy to eighty percent!
As soon as she raised her tail, she knew what she was going to do.
Mrs. Liu greedily glanced at the chest beside her feet, then raised her head and looked at Li Qingling and the others. Seeing that none of them were paying attention to her, she swallowed her saliva, and carefully placed her hands on the chest.
"Grandma, what are you doing? This belongs to Grandpa Xue, so don"t touch it carelessly. If it"s broken, then you"ll have to pay for it. " Li Qingning"s words were spoken very loudly, causing everyone in the room to hear, and turn their heads to look at Mrs. Liu.
She had long since stared at this grandmother of hers who opened her eyes to money, afraid that she would covet the things in her family. She didn"t expect that she would really make a move.
She felt that this grandmother of hers was truly too embarra.s.sing.
When Mrs. Liu saw so many people looking at her with strange eyes, no matter how thick-skinned she was, she couldn"t help but blush. She fiercely glared at Li Qingning and muttered loudly, "Which eye of yours saw me touching it randomly? I just saw that there was some dust on the top of the box. I just wiped it. "
This reason was indeed hard to come by. Just hearing it made him feel that it was fake.
There was no dust on the surface of the box. Who didn"t see it?
Li Qingning relied on his age to keep his age and not reveal Mrs. Liu"s background, "Grandma, you sure know how to joke around, I only closed the box when I looked at it earlier, how could there be dust?"
Her small eyes looked at Mrs. Liu in disdain, and she was just about to say it out loud, but Mrs. Liu was so shameless.
Regarding this matter where she wanted to peek at, Mrs. Liu definitely could not admit it. Once she admitted it, she would lose all face.
She placed her hands on her hips, her eyes wide open as she tried to defend herself, "It might be you who stuck the dust on your hands!" It was not her fault that she didn"t like Li Qingling and the other two siblings. One of them didn"t have any expression, so who could like them?
Seeing that Mrs. Liu and her young granddaughter were arguing, his expression became ugly. He walked over with large strides and pulled Mrs. Liu"s hand, pulling her towards the door.
She did not feel ashamed. He felt ashamed.
This woman was really giving him no face at all.
She had originally wanted to get close with the G.o.dly Doctor, but she had destroyed everything.
One could imagine how bad his mood was.
Old Li walked to the door, then turned and looked at the old man, and said while forcing a smile, "Next time, I will properly reminisce with the genius doctor, since I still have things to do, I will be leaving first."
The old man put on his airs and waved his hand.
After Old Li left, the villagers all bade farewell to the old man and said that they would come again when they had time.
The old man was rather nice to the villagers. He stood up and walked them to the courtyard entrance. After seeing them out of sight, he turned around and returned to the house.
He flicked Li Qingning"s forehead and scolded him.
Li Qingning held her forehead, and said while giggling, she just could not bear to see her grandmother being so blind to money.
It would have been fine if her granny had been good to them, but her granny had been bad to them. Just because of this, she didn"t want to give her any face.
"You"re still young, yet you dare to talk back to your grandma. Outsiders won"t say anything, they will only think that you"re still young and don"t understand. When you grow up, you can"t act as you please. It will affect your reputation, do you understand?" The old man cut at Li Qingning in time.
Li Qingning pouted and said, then I can"t even return the favor even if she bullies me? How aggrieved she was!
"Silly girl, I didn"t want you to be a little bun and let others bully you." The old man patted Li Qingning"s head again and continued to attack her.
The corner of Li Qingling"s mouth twitched when he heard this. She really suspected that if the little guy stayed with the old man for a few more months, wouldn"t that old man teach him a lot of evil tricks?
"Wa, this is a good idea. I understand. Grandfather, I will do it next time." Li Qingning clapped happily, feeling that the moves that the old man had taught her were truly not bad. The next time she met such a situation, she would try it again, making her grandma suffer greatly.
The old man also laughed extremely happily. He really didn"t have any good impression of Mrs. Liu, but he couldn"t care less about a woman.
"Alright, old man, you should hurry up and rest!" Li Qingling urged the Old Man to sleep quickly, otherwise, if he stayed here, and the villagers saw him, they would come and talk to him again. At that time, even if he wanted to rest, he would not be able to.
The old man nodded his head, he then spoke a few words to Li Qingling, and then happily went back to his room to rest.
If they did not agree with Li Qingling"s happiness, then Mrs. Liu"s situation would not be good.
Old Li dragged Mrs. Liu home, his face extremely ugly, he stared at Mrs. Liu with a gloomy face: "You have completely lost face for the Li Family." Mrs. Liu was getting more and more out of control. If she continued like this, the only thing she could do was harm the Li Family.
She really couldn"t care less.
Being scolded in such a way by Old Li, her face darkened as he replied in a spicy tone, "What happened to her? Why did he throw the entire Li Family"s face away?
Did she think it was nothing at all? She wasn"t trying to steal from him, so how could she let him pin this crime on her?
"What were you trying to do just now? Ah? "Dare you tell me you didn"t want to open that box?" If he hadn"t known her for a day or two and been a couple for decades, how could he not understand her?
Being interrogated by Old Li in such a manner, Mrs. Liu"s face flushed red. She took two deep breaths, crossed her hands on her waist, pointed at Old Li, and scolded loudly. What about it? I"m just curious about what"s inside. I just want to take a look. Ah, it"s fine if others are scolding me, but you are scolding me. Wasn"t it all for this family? If it wasn"t for this family, do you think I would study these things? " At the end, her eyes reddened. All the things she had done in her life were all for the good of this family. How could he not see her sacrifice?
Seeing Mrs. Liu"s bloodshot eyes, the anger in Old Li"s heart dissipated by half. He let out a heavy sigh, and spoke in a softer tone, "Under the gaze of everyone, don"t do things that you don"t know how to do." The old saying was right. To marry a wife to a sage, a good wife for three generations!
If not for his family being poor back then, his father would not have asked to marry Mrs. Liu. This is all life!
He could only teach her more than usual, and not let her do anything that would embarra.s.s her.
"Why aren"t you making any changes? I don"t believe that you"re not curious about what"s inside." Hearing that Old Li had softened his tone, not only did he not rest her anger, it had even grown stronger and stronger. He felt that she had the upper hand and thought of taking this opportunity to teach Old Li a lesson.
Although Old Li was also curious about what was in the chest, he felt a little awkward when Mrs. Liu pointed it out so straightforwardly.
He sat on the chair, took two puffs from his cigarette, and glared at Mrs. Liu as he spoke word by word, "Do you think I"m you? Can you do that? "Shameful …" He would never admit that.
"You … You … I"m going to fight you, you old fogey … " Mrs. Liu"s face paled because of her response. As soon as she finished shouting those words, she pounced towards Old Li, grabbed his neck, and shook him with all her strength, "You old b.a.s.t.a.r.d, if I don"t teach you a lesson today, I won"t be surnamed Liu …"
Old Li was pinched so hard that he could not breathe. His face was flushed red as he reached out to grab Mrs. Liu"s hand, trying to pull it away from his.
