Li Qingling stood up and rubbed her shoulders, she frowned, she really did not know what to say to Madam Liu.
The villagers felt it was a pity that Madam Liu had left and did not show any excitement. However, when they saw Li Qingling, the gossips in their hearts started again.
"Xiao Ling, you bought so many eggs, are you really giving them to someone else to eat?" An aunt from the village looked at Li Qingling with a gossipy look in her eyes. She did not believe what Li Qingling had said, who would give away hundreds of eggs?
Li Qingling's attitude towards the villagers was good. She smiled at her aunt and said, "Aunt, look at our family's poor conditions, how could we spend so much money to buy eggs for someone else to eat?" After a pause, she continued, "Others have to pay." Buying egg cake for her family's food, didn't they have to pay?
The villagers suddenly realised when they heard it. They had all said this, how could Li Qingling spend that much money to buy eggs for others to eat?
The villagers thought that they knew the truth and did not chase after Li Qingling to ask.
Li Qingling didn't know that at all. She was a little stupefied by the thought of the people in the village buying eggs for her. She thought that the people in the village would chase after her for a long time, but who would have thought that they would leave just like that?
However, the villagers no longer questioned her. She was also very happy.
She turned around and went back to the Liu Family. As soon as he went in, Li Qingfeng asked her nervously, "Did Grandma do anything to her?"
If it wasn't for his sister not letting him out, he would have rushed out to protect his sister.
Li Qingling lightly patted Li Qingfeng's head, "Don't worry, grandmother will not be able to benefit from me, right?" She wasn't the original owner, so she could be kneaded as she pleased.
Only then did Li Qingfeng finally stop worrying. He looked at Li Qingling in admiration, his elder sister was truly amazing.
"Grandma's kind of person only bullies the weak and fears the strong. When facing her, one must be stronger than her." She was afraid that if she wasn't at home, Madam Liu would find around to bully Li Qingfeng, so she gave him a precaution, "If you can't deal with her, then go find the village chief or grandfather. In front of the village chief or grandfather, she doesn't dare to be presumptuous." Just now, she had used her grandfather to scare her away.
Knowing that his sister was teaching him how to deal with his grandma, Li Qingfeng nodded his head repeatedly, telling him to remember. If he met his grandma again, he would do the same thing.
Seeing that he had really listened to him, Li Qingling nodded her head in gratification, and changed the subject, "Has little sister gone to sleep yet?"
"No, Yan Shi is taking her." He was worried about his sister, so he ran over to the door to wait.
Li Qingling acknowledged him and told him to take care of his sister, so she went to take a look at the little rabbit.
The last time she caught a wild rabbit, it had already grown up. There were two or three female rabbits that were about to give birth, so she wanted to take a look inside.
The rabbits were capable of reproduction, so she planned to raise these rabbits well. When they grew up, she would sell them to the restaurant. This was another sum of income.
Thinking that rabbits are money, Li Qingling's footsteps became lighter.
She had just walked to the backyard, when Liu Zhimo hurried in. When he saw her, he immediately asked, "I heard that Madam Liu is looking for trouble again, are you alright?" He went to break the reeds, and hearing the villagers' discussion, he became anxious. Carrying the broken reeds on his back, he hurriedly ran back.
Seeing the sweat on his forehead, Li Qingling's heart softened, and she shook her head, "What can I do for you? You still don't trust my methods? " Just based on Madam Liu's impulsiveness, how could a brainless person possibly outdo her?
Liu Zhimo sized Li Qingling up from head to toe. Only when he saw that she was really fine did he relax, it was not that he did not believe in Li Qingling's methods, but he was afraid that Madam Liu would be enraged and use violence to harm her.
"It's good that you're fine." He wiped the sweat off his forehead and saw that she was squatting on the ground and seriously looking at the rabbit. He also squatted down, "This rabbit is about to give birth, right?"
"It should be in the next two days." Li Qingling looked at the belly of the female rabbit, calculated the time, and nodded with certainty. "Go and buy some chickens to raise tomorrow morning! "If you grow up, you can lay an egg!" She discovered that the eggs of her own hens would be more delicious, which was probably the reason why she used Spirit Water to feed them.
The courtyard wasn't big enough. If the courtyard was big enough, she planned to raise a few more hens. That way, they wouldn't have to go out to buy eggs.
It was better to put this matter aside and take it step by step. He was anxious to not be able to eat hot tofu.
"Alright .." Regarding this kind of thing, Liu Zhimo would basically not object.
Seeing that he agreed, Li Qingling smiled and told him about the rabbit again.
The Liu Family laughed again and again, but the Old Lee was completely different.
Madam Liu rushed back home in a hurry, but was unable to get those fifty eggs back. She was extremely unwilling, and kept cursing Li Qingling under her breath.
He did not see the black faced Old Li, who was walking in with his hands behind his back.
"Where did you go?"
The sudden voice gave Madam Liu a fright. She patted her chest and turned to glare at Old Li, "I was almost scared to death by you." This old man didn't even make a sound when he walked. If it wasn't for her being a bit bolder, she might have really been scared to death by his voice.
Old Li's face darkened even more. He asked again, "Where did you go?" Her eyes sized up Madam Liu, and when she saw her dirty pants, she frowned.
Being sized up by Old Li like this, Madam Liu felt weak in her heart. She pinched her fingers and laughed dryly: "I'll be back after picking the vegetables. Where can I go?" She glanced at Old Li, and then straightened her back, "On the other hand, where are you going to stroll instead of knitting baskets at home?"
Seeing that Madam Liu did not admit it, Old Li's face became as black as ink, "Did you go look for Li Qingling just now?" Thinking about what the villagers had told him, he lost all his face, and was completely thrown away by these old ladies.
Hearing this, Madam Liu's heart jumped, what news did this old man hear outside?
She swallowed her saliva with even greater guilt, not daring to lie to him again as she stammered, "Yes .." "He went to look for her." Wasn't it for the sake of taking back the fifty eggs that she got from Li Qingling, or was it for the sake of this house that she went to find him? It was one thing if this old man didn't want to help her, but he even made a face at her.
The more Madam Liu thought about it, the more unhappy she felt in her heart.
Old Li had been husband and wife with Madam Liu for decades, how could he not see through his thoughts?
He was so angry that he clenched his fists. It was one thing for this old woman to have no brains, but she still didn't take his words to heart.
"What did I tell you before? Have you forgotten so quickly? "Huh?" That cheap girl Li Qingling, after hitting her head, she had completely changed. She was no longer meek and submissive, and had become extremely ambitious.
When Madam Liu ran over to find trouble with her, not only would she not win over her, she would also lose all face for Old Lee.
Old Li's roar made Madam Liu's body tremble, "Can you blame me? It's because she coveted our family's fifty eggs. Fifty eggs isn't a small number. " She could sell the eggs for another fifty cents.
"What fifty eggs?" Old Li looked at Madam Liu with a baffled expression. Just now, he was ridiculed by the villagers, who said that Madam Liu had gone to find Li Qingling for some reason, but was scolded by Li Qingling and left. He was laughed at by the others, he had no face to stay in the room any longer.
He went and sat down on the stool, took his old pipe, and, without lighting it, took a few sips of it.
When Madam Liu thought of the fifty eggs, the anger in her heart rose again. She immediately said it out loud, but of course, adding fuel to the fire was essential.
She hoped that Old Li would be angry too and stand on the same front as her, hoping to find Li Qingling and get back those fifty eggs.
"What did you say?" Old Li's eyes were as wide as lanterns, "Say it again."
This time, Madam Liu was no longer afraid. She glared at Old Li unhappily and repeated herself again. Once she finished, she smacked her lips, "Old man, why do you think she bought so many eggs?" Did he manage to get himself into a business that specialized in earning money?
He had to admit that Madam Liu was right.
Old Li also stopped smoking, he was silent for a long time, then said indifferently: "Just because of this matter, you came to my house again to cause trouble?" Although he didn't have much feelings for his granddaughter, and even felt disgusted with her, Madam Liu's brainless actions made him even more angry.
"What do you mean just for this?" Madam Liu was not satisfied with Old Li's frivolous attitude. She curled her lips and said, "I did it to get those fifty eggs. If it weren't for those fifty eggs, would I have gone to that unlucky bitch?" However, that money loser was very stubborn and refused to return the egg to her.
With a clang, Old Li threw his pipe heavily onto the ground. He did not care even if the pipe broke, as he stood up and stared at Madam Liu with his red eyes, "Did you sell those fifty eggs?" This wife was too stupid, she did not even think about it. If she were to ask Li Qingling for an egg to eat, she would have to pay her back with a word of filial piety.
But her? Only a fool would give her the fifty eggs she had brought home.
"I was the one who sold it, but who knew that she was the one who collected it?" If she knew about this, she would definitely not buy it, "Old man, don't you want to know why Li Qingling bought so many eggs? Don't you want to take the eggs back? " In any case, she was very unwilling in her heart.
Even if Old Li had such a thought in his heart, he would not directly say it out loud.
He fiercely glared at Madam Liu a few times, and warned her once again. If she was still so brainless in the future, and directly went to find Li Qingling, she would immediately pack up and return to her parents' home.
Looking at Madam Liu who had turned red and white from fright, he snorted coldly and threw her hand out as she entered the house.
Madam Liu was enraged, but did not dare to retort to Old Li, as he hated Li Qingling in his heart.
