After being exiled, I led my whole family to rebel.

Chapter 38 Use house fighting to solve the food crisis

Huang Cui'e's eyes wandered, but she paused for a moment on Xu Yinxi's face. She was obviously a little absent-minded. She smiled very reluctantly and said: "I didn't say anything, just let us listen to his words and not make trouble."

Oh, Liu Jiejie actually wanted to trick her into plotting against Xu Yinxi?

If she really had the courage, Lian would not kill her.

Do you really think she is that stupid?

She hurriedly ordered again: "Girls, go pick up some firewood. Don't go too far. Come back early. Zhenlan, please help me. Let's get the food first."

Everyone had to go about their business, but Xu Dechi took advantage of the fact that no one was paying attention and said to Huang Cui'e privately: "Then what did Liu Laoshi tell you?"

Huang Cui'e was still feeling guilty just now, but when faced with the question from the person next to her pillow, she straightened her back, "Why are you asking? Why, you still don't believe me?"

"Huh, I've been sleeping with you Huang Cui'e for most of my life and I still don't know you. I saw the way you acted just now and I knew you weren't telling the truth at all——"

"Okay, okay." Huang Cui'e waved her hand and pushed him away, "Stop asking around, it's nothing important, just stay here and I'll get something to eat."

On the other side, Xu Zhenying had already grabbed Lian Qiuzhi who was about to leave.

Lian Qiuzhi and Xu Deyuan were still angry these days, as if they were separated into a separate family. They only cared about themselves and their three daughters, not taking care of their second uncle at all.

Aunt Qiu over there provoked her several times in front of the second uncle, but the second uncle remained unmoved.The second uncle couldn't help but naively thought that Lian would change his mind after being angry for a few days.However, the second aunt really wanted to reconcile. She had made up her mind to live in such a muddle for the time being until her daughter got married.

Xu Zhenying stopped Second Aunt in her tracks and said straight to the point: "Second Aunt, Second Uncle didn't tell the truth."

The second aunt didn't want to interfere with Xu Deyuan's affairs, so she immediately said: "So what?"

"Not at all." Xu Zhenying smiled slightly, looked into Miao's eyes and said, "It's just that I think that even if Second Aunt doesn't want to, she can't control the situation. Now you are a grasshopper on the same rope as us. If we don't solve it, This Liu Laoshi will have endless troubles."

In the past few days, Lian discovered that Xu Qingying was thoughtful, and subconsciously avoided her, so she said, "What does that have to do with me?"

"Second Aunt has money with her, but you four have four mouths to eat, how can you afford to eat high-priced food for a few days?"

Lian was startled, her heart pounding, "What nonsense are you talking about, about high-priced food? I don't understand what you are talking about."

"Second Aunt, there is no airtight wall in this world. If I see it, there will definitely be others who will see it. I have been exiled for two thousand miles and it will take at least two or three months to walk. Can you support it with the money in your hands? Can it be that Er Is Auntie planning to go to Guizhou empty-handed? Or is Second Auntie just willing to give money to Liu Laoshi?"

Lian Qiuzhi's eyelids twitched, and now she was sure that Xu Zhenying had not deceived her. She became angry and said: "So what, are you still going to expose me? My father gave me this money, and I want to use my Lian family's money to support me." You? That can't be—"

Xu Zhenying interrupted her and said, "How much did you spend on buying grain from Liu Laoshi?"

Lian Qiuzhi gritted his teeth and said nothing.

"Liu Laoshi robbed our food and sold it to the second aunt at a high price. Can the second aunt endure this?"

"What can I do if I can't bear it? You also said that the situation is stronger than the person. If I don't buy from him, are we going to starve to death?" Lian Qiuzhi's voice was trembling. Although she didn't want to live with Xu Deyuan, in the end Without Heli, she would still be Xu's wife.If others knew that she didn't care about her mother-in-law's life and took her daughter to eat alone, they would probably be drowned in saliva.

She was obviously very cautious when making transactions, and she repeatedly told her three daughters not to make any noise. How did Xu Qingying find out about this?
"I'm warning you, there will be no benefit in exposing me. This money was given by my father. There is no reason why your Xu family has to rely on my father to support you even if you are in exile—"

"Second aunt misses me like this, which makes me very sad." Xu Zhenying showed a sad expression, but no matter how you look at that childish face paired with that mature expression, it always looks a bit nondescript. "Besides, I didn't say I was going to expose you. Yesterday I said, everyone has to live according to his own ability. Do you think the eldest son also suffered from hunger for two days with us?"

Lian Qiuzhi was stunned.

"Didn't you find out that she went to see the girl from the Qian family?"

Asking for food from the unmarried daughter-in-law is really something Huang Cui'e can do.

Xu Zhenying shrugged, "I think only the third and fourth bedrooms are really honest."

Lian's heart beat like a drum for a moment. Looking at the black and white eyes of the person in front of her, she couldn't help but ask: "How come you know everything?"

"Observe everything more." Xu Zhenying waved her hand nonchalantly, "Let's get to the point. I'm not interested in anything you do, and I'm even less interested in reporting and exposing you. I came here just to ask Second Aunt if she wants to completely deal with Liu Laoshi. ?”

Lian Qiuzhi was stunned, "What do you mean?"

How could she not hate that interpretation?Thinking that the daughter of a dignified third-rank official actually talked down to a small official, and even knew that the other party was extorting money, she could only be careful to apologize and not dare to offend.

A piece of cornbread was sold to her for five taels of silver.

If this continues, the money will be gone before people even arrive in Guizhou.

They all say that the county magistrate is not as good as taking charge now, but this time she really realized it.

"I don't think we can let Liu Laoshi handle it. Think about it, our journey has just begun. If he treats us like this, what will happen next? I'm afraid that all of us will be wiped out by him... We have to Take the initiative and find a way to resolve this matter once and for all.”

Lian Qiuzhi thought about it for a moment, and seeing that Xu Zhenying was no longer a joke, he felt a little more cautious, "Is it possible that you have something to do?"

"Not now." Xu Zhenying stared at Lian Qiuzhi and smiled particularly amiably, "Don't we need the help of my second aunt?"

Lian Qiuzhi sighed as if he was resigned to his fate, but he didn't want to let her succeed easily, so he acted like an elder and coughed, "Let's talk about it first -"

"I think the second uncle didn't tell the truth. Although Liu Laoshi tried his best to hide it, I observed carefully that he seemed to pay special attention to the second uncle. So I think we should first investigate what kind of grudge Liu Laoshi has with the second uncle before making the next step. .”

"Who are you asking for in this barren mountain?" Lian Qiuzhi has been managing the back house for many years, so he is not stupid at all. He immediately understood the key, "You want me to find Team Leader Zhao?"

"Second Aunt is amazing." Xu Zhenying praised her sincerely, "I think Team Leader Zhao still wants to buy Second Aunt's face."

Lian said hesitantly: "But that person in class Zhao looks rough and arrogant, but he is actually difficult to deal with. If you want to trick him... I'm afraid it won't be easy."
