Li Laifu answered without hesitation, "I bought it from Golden Jade Pavilion. Both the hairpin and step shake cost around ten taels of silver." He recognised the hairpin and step shake"s style because he wanted to buy a hairpin from Golden Jade Pavilion to please Mei Niang, but he couldn"t afford that price, so he had a deep impression of the jewelry from Golden Jade Pavilion, "Nephew Daughter, this hairpin and step shake, if you want it, then take it! Just take it as a gift from Uncle Uncle. "Having said so, Li Baoyi loudly objected, "No way, this is mine, I don"t agree to give it to her." This was her beloved object, how could she casually let Li Qingling have it? Don"t even think about it, "Li Qingling, hurry up and return that thing to me."
As he spoke, he ran forward to grab it.
She had completely forgotten that this thing was originally Li Qingling"s, and all she wanted to do was to take the hairpin and step shake back.
Li Qingling held onto Li Bao Zhu"s hand, and used a little bit of strength to push her back, pushing her two steps back.
"Is this really yours?" "You know that."
Although she had never seen this hairpin and step shake, she trusted Liu Zhimo"s words completely. He would not lie to her.
Li Bao Zhu"s face was green and red. She gritted her teeth and quickly walked a few steps forward as she reached out to grab Li Qingling"s face.
She wished she could disfigure Li Qingling"s face.
With regards to Li Bao Zhu"s malicious actions, Li Qingling didn"t want to give her any face. He immediately lifted his leg, forcefully kicked Li Bao Zhu"s leg, directly kicking Li Bao Zhu to the ground.
Her face was covered in frost as she looked at her coldly. "Don"t be so shameless. If you move again, I"ll cripple you."
This was Li Baoyi"s true appearance. The Li Baoyu who came to chat with her every now and then to get close to her, probably had a hidden motive.
Li Bao Zhu reached out his hands to cover the pain from being kicked, and started crying quietly. This Li Qingling had probably spent a lot of energy to kick her, it was just too painful.
"Li Qingling, how can you do this? How can I kick your Sister Jewel? " Mrs. Liu"s expression changed as she quickly ran over and pulled Li Bao up. She stared at Li Qingling with her eyes wide opened, and said, "You are really lawless."
If Li Qingling knew that she had also taken her hairpin and step shake, he would definitely ask her to take it back.
The only way was to quickly chase Li Qingling back.
Li Laifu took this opportunity to stand in front of Li Bao Zhu and said: "Nephew Daughter, no matter what, the treasure pearl is your sister, how can you attack without saying a word, this is truly going too far."
This Li Qingling is really too hard to please.
It really was different from the Nephew Daughter in his impression of her.
Li Qingling coldly glanced at them, pursed his lips, and did not say a word.
Let them be c.o.c.ky for a moment, and they"ll have nothing more to say.
Seeing that Li Qingling did not say anything, Mrs. Liu thought that they had the upper hand and continued to suppress Li Qingling, "Li Qingling, are you mute? But if you kick a treasure bead like this, shouldn"t you compensate us? " Li Qingling was so rich, it was natural for her to compensate him with some silver.
"Oh? Grandmother, what do you want me to compensate you for? Silver? "
There was hope …
Mrs. Liu"s eyes flashed with a proud look, she nodded her head heavily, and said, It"s silver.
Li Qingling laughed out loud, his laughter full of ridicule and ridicule, and asked Mrs. Liu how much money he wanted to compensate?
Now that the question was on her mind, Mrs. Liu would of course not let go of this opportunity. Opening his mouth, just as he was about to speak of what was on her mind, Old Li suddenly shouted out loudly.
"Shut up." She pursed her lips together and did not dare to say another word. When Old Li saw her, he turned his gaze back to Li Qingling and said: "Xiao Ling, your grandmother is joking with you, you better not take it to heart."
This wife of his was really lacking in discipline. To say such words out loud, it was truly embarra.s.sing him once again.
If he didn"t give his wife and mother a lesson, she wouldn"t take his words to heart.
Li Qingling glanced at Old Li with an expressionless face, and gave an indifferent grunt.
Just then, Liu Zhimo came over with the village chief.
When Liu Zhimo and Li Qingling came, they had already discussed this matter. They wanted to make use of this opportunity to take back all the betrothal gifts that they gave to the Li Family.
This matter with Li Baozhu had given them a reason.
When Old Li saw the village chief, his expression changed. He was very angry in his heart, Li Qingling making a big fuss over nothing, this is their family"s matter, why did they invite the village chief over?
"Fourth brother, why are you here?" No matter how angry he was in his heart, Li Qingling could not casually show it on his face. He had to reveal a smile and greet the village chief.
The Village Chief let out a heavy snort and said in a bad mood, "Such an important matter, how could I not come?"
He was completely disappointed in Old Li.
He felt that Old Li was really hopeless.
Old Li"s face became awkward, he rubbed his hands and said softly: This is my family"s child"s conflict and it is not a big deal, let"s be frank. From the bottom of his heart, he did not want the Village Chief to interfere in this matter. If he allowed the Village Chief to interfere in this matter, it would mean that the entire village knew what was going on.
When the Village Chief heard this, he became even angrier. He had already coveted his betrothal gift, yet he still called it a small matter. He really did not know what was so important anymore.
"We don"t say two things at the same time, let"s open our mouths!" He didn"t want to be confused with Old Li, he just wanted to settle this matter quickly.
Old Li gave Li Laifu a meaningful glance, telling him to close the courtyard door, and not to let anyone else in the village hear about it.
"Fourth brother, let"s talk inside!"
The village chief still gave Old Li some face. With a grunt, he placed his hands behind his back and walked in with large strides.
When everyone was seated, the Village Chief spoke again, "I found out something from He Mo. What did you say?" He hadn"t heard what Old Li and the others were saying yet, so he couldn"t completely lean towards Li Qingling"s side.
Without waiting for Old Li to speak, Li Bao Zhu jumped out, "Cun Zhangyeye, this is really Li Qingling"s fault. She s.n.a.t.c.hed my hairpin away from Bu Yao." She looked at the hairpin and step shake in Li Qingling"s hands and really wanted to run over and s.n.a.t.c.h them back.
However, with the Village Head here, she did not dare act rashly.
The village chief directly asked, how did she prove that the hairpin and step shake were hers?
Li Baozhu nodded, and loudly said, "That was bought for me by my father. I always wore it at home, so my grandparents all knew about it." As she said that, she pointed at Li Qingling with righteous indignation, "Just now, I went to find Li Qingling to chat, and when she saw the hairpin and step shake on my head, she fell for it, and insisted that the hairpin and step shake were hers. Cun Zhangyeye, how can there be such a shameless person like him?"
Hearing that, the village chief turned his eyes towards Old Li and the other two, and asked them if that was the case.
Old Li and the other two immediately nodded, saying that it was indeed like that.
The village chief frowned, he then turned his head and looked at Liu Zhimo, and asked him, this hairpin and step shake, were they really his betrothal gift to Li Qingling? What proof did he have?
Liu Zhimo coldly swept his eyes across Old Li and the others, and stretched out her hand towards Li Qingling. Li Qingling immediately placed the hairpin and step shake s in her hand.
He
He pointed directly at the hairpin and the tip of the step shake"s tail, "There"s" Pure Spirit "here. I carved it specially for you." He looked at the village chief, and handed the hairpin and step shake over to him, "Cun Zhangyeye, you can check and see if what I said is true?"
If he did not look at the hairpin and step shake s, and saw that it was indeed written in clear words, he would not be 100% sure that it was he who gave Li Qingling the betrothal gift.
The village chief took it over and glanced at it. There were indeed two small words written on it, "Spirit".
His face would become as dark as ink as he angrily looked at Old Li, "What else do you have to say, eh?" This time, he was truly disappointed with Old Li, "Your conscience has been eaten by dogs? How can you do such a despicable thing? "
He had never seen such family before, it was truly … Seriously … He didn"t know what to say.
Old Li and the others didn"t think that there would be such a great reversal. How did they know that there would actually be a word on top of it?
"No, I don"t believe it. How could there be words on it?" Li Baozhu was the first to mutter to herself. She had been wearing it for so long, how come she didn"t notice?
Could it be that Li Qingling let them carve it?
Li Qingling had followed her from behind and directly came to her house. She did not have the time to do this, so he would not let others carve her character on the wall.
So that means it"s true?
If she hadn"t seen it with her own eyes, she wouldn"t have believed it.
The village chief was so angry that his eyes were about to spew fire. Did he doubt his character in this matter? Ah?
He looked straight at Old Li, pa.s.sed the hairpin and step shake over for him to take a look, and see if there were any clear words on them?
Old Li"s face alternated between green and red, his hands trembling as he took the hairpin and step shake s from the village chief. He looked at the hairpin and the tail of the step shake seriously, and indeed, he saw the words" Spirit Cleansing "at the end of the hairpin. The words were truly very small, and if Liu Zhimo had not said them, it would have been difficult to notice.
"What else do you have to say?" "Huh?" When the village chief saw Old Li"s expression, he knew the answer, "I am truly ashamed for all of you."
Even his granddaughter"s betrothal gift was coveted. This was too embarra.s.sing.
"How is this possible?" Li Baozhu mumbled to himself in shock. How could it be inscribed? How is that possible?
However, if it was impossible, her grandfather would have already refuted it. If he didn"t say a word, then that would mean that it was true.
Li Qingling did not care about their expressions, she only looked at the village head and said, "Cun Zhangyeye, I have a request."
