Chapter 33 What a diligent little daughter-in-law
Li Xiaodao stuffed back the bag of silver that his mother had stuffed over, "Oh my mother! Don't stuff it! You stuffed enough before, so I'll leave some pension money for you and dad, huh?"

The mother stuffed it back and whispered to her daughter: "What are you afraid of if you have your father who can make money! There are many places where you two go to the provincial capital to spend money! Everything costs money for basic necessities, not to mention that your husband is still a scholar, and the pen, ink, and paper Inkstones are very expensive, and there are also apprenticeships and exchanges of favors, if you hold them, you will definitely be able to use them!"

Li Xiaodao stuffed it back again: "We both have hands and feet. As long as we can settle down, we will find a way to make money later, so don't worry about it! Besides, isn't my brother in the provincial capital? , I can no longer ask for money from you and dad!"

Li Xiaodao's mother said angrily, "What do you think of a girl? Hmm? Although your husband is a scholar, he is not only unable to make money but also spends money all the time. How are you going to live this day! As for your brother, don’t count on it. He hasn’t brought back a single piece of silver scum after going out for so many years, and he can still give you a turnover? Hurry up and take it obediently!”

Li Xiaodao said helplessly: "Don't worry about it! Xianggong has a little income every month, and there is also a school field. He has also saved some money over the years. You should put it away properly!"

The two chattered for a while, Li Xiaodao had quick eyesight, and when her mother stuffed the money over again, she quickly threw the money on the bed not far away, opened the door and ran away.

"Hurry up, Mr. Li," Li Xiaodao pulled Pei Zhiqi out of the house in a hurry.

Mother is still chasing after, but she can't catch up.

"This stinky girl! You're really disobedient!" Cursing and cursing, Li Xiaodao's mother burst into tears again.

*

Li Xiaodao and Xianggong were walking home, feeling quite uncomfortable.

Pei Zhiqi could see that the lady was in a bad mood, so she just held her hand and walked quietly without disturbing her.

Passing by the riverside where the two met, Li Xiaodao pulled Xiang Gong to stop.

"Hi—Xiaohe—we'll be leaving in a few days! We won't be back until next winter at the earliest! Please bless us well——!" Li Xiaodao shouted towards the river.

Would this make me look like a fool?But anyway, there is no one else around, only my husband, so it doesn't matter.

Feeling much more comfortable after shouting, Li Xiaodao took Pei Zhiqi and continued to walk back, chatting while walking.

"Sanggong, it would be great if I could live with my family forever. Although my mother has such a temper... But when I think of leaving her, I still feel very uncomfortable."

Pei Zhiqi comforted in a soft voice: "Regardless of whether we can pass the exam next year, we will come back, and then we will go back and see more."

"Xianggong will definitely pass the exam next year!" Li Xiaodao thought for a while, and added: "But you don't have to be too stressed, even if you fail the exam, you will be a teacher in a private school in the future, and your life will be very nourishing."

Pei Zhiqi smiled and said, "Don't worry, lady, I'm a little nervous, but I can manage it."

After talking and chatting, the two arrived home.

In the afternoon, Pei Zhiqi went to the river with her clothes, and Li Xiaodao packed her luggage at home. In order to avoid omissions, she also made two lists for herself and her husband.

The ones that have been sorted are marked with ticks, the ones that are being sorted are marked with a five-pointed star, and the ones that have not been sorted are marked with crosses.

"My clothes are finished, but I still have a few more to wash. The hairpins, hairpins, shoes, and inner clothes are all finished... Wow, my husband's is still so far behind, and the books haven't started to be sorted..."

After counting, she ran to Pei's mother's courtyard to see what she needed help for tomorrow's winter solstice.

After helping Mother Pei make meatballs for a while, she helped sweep the floor before returning to her yard.

Seeing that the small house of myself and my husband was a bit messy in the past two days, I even cleaned the house and the yard.

"Well, that's not bad." After finishing cleaning, she stood in the yard admiring her masterpiece, nodded, and proudly said, "I'm such a diligent little wife!"

As soon as he said this, he found that Xianggong also just finished washing his clothes and came back into the yard.

"..." Li Xiaodao blushed suddenly in embarrassment: "Msg... Xianggong, you heard..."

Pei Zhiqi smiled and shook his head: "No. Ma'am, go into the house quickly. It's getting dark and it's windy outside. I'll go to dry the clothes first."

In the evening, Pei Zhiqi cooked vegetable porridge and hot soup cakes, and the family had a simple dinner.

After calling Pei's mother over for dinner two days ago, gradually everyone ate together every meal. Li Xiaodao really liked the feeling that the whole family sat at the dinner table happily.

It's a pity that Father Pei is not at home.When Father Pei came back, they had already gone to the provincial capital.

During the meal, Li Xiaodao blinked at Xianggong, implying that Xianggong told his mother what they discussed last night.

When Pei Zhiqi received the code, he immediately understood what the lady meant. He turned to Mother Pei and said, "Mother, I discussed it with the lady. When we arrive at the provincial capital, we will ask someone to deliver a letter and write down our address in the provincial capital. , you and your father went to the provincial capital together during the Chinese New Year, and lived for a while by the way."

"This..." Mother Pei hesitated.

Li Xiaodao also said: "Yes, mother, you and dad can also go earlier years ago, and the fields are not busy in the twelfth lunar month. Xianggong is always in the academy, and it is boring to be alone at home. We can go shopping together .”

Mother Pei hesitated and said, "I... I'll discuss it with your father when he comes back."

"That's great!" Li Xiaodao said happily: "Father and mother can't let us dove! It's a deal! We must go!"

When he was happy, he spoke modern Chinese again. Fortunately, Xianggong and Pei's mother didn't seem to have any strange expressions.

Mother Pei obviously didn't agree yet, but Li Xiaodao was already very happy. Seeing her so happy, Mother Pei didn't want to disappoint right now, so she just nodded with a smile.

A lively dinner was over.

In the evening, Pei Zhiqi still prepared the soup lady and hot water as usual, but there is still nothing wrong with the lady today.

Before going to bed at night, Li Xiaodao kept nodding his head and dozed off, while sitting at the table holding the thousand-character text and relying on perseverance, memorizing the traditional Chinese characters on the table with his fingers.

I can't rush to see if the brush font looks good. I can only practice every day and make a little progress every day, but I still have to learn how to write traditional characters quickly.

"Miss, let's study again tomorrow. It's late at night, let's rest first." Pei Zhiqi persuaded, seeing that the lady could barely open her eyes and was still carrying it.

"No... I still have two words... and... two..." After saying this sentence, Li Xiaodao's note book fell on the table, and he fell asleep on the book.

"This..." Pei Zhiqi was a little stunned, the lady just fell asleep?
She hadn't changed her underwear, her hair hadn't been untied, and she hadn't washed her hair.

"My lady, my lady?" Pei Zhiqi called out in a low voice, but couldn't wake him up, so he pushed gently, but the lady still breathed evenly and slept soundly.

Maybe I'm tired of cleaning today.

Pei Zhiqi sighed softly, what should I do?

He gently untied the lady's hair first, removed the hairpin, and pushed a few times to wake the lady up again, but Li Xiaodao, who was asleep, did not move at all.

He had no choice but to whisper to the lady again: "My lady, forgive me for being rude", then gently picked up Li Xiaodao, put it on the couch, and helped her take off her shoes.

What should I do, let the lady sleep with her clothes on like this?
 Today, witnessing history, must be renewed
