peasant shrew

Chapter 31

It's a pity that Lin Yueniang is a petite.

"People are stuck in the house now. If I can bear it, it would be shameful. If I don't make it clear today, I won't think about it." Lin Yueniang kicked the kang table on the ground and pointed at Li Dewang's nose He said in a cold voice, "Don't make me hold back my grievances and be an idiot, Li Dewang, you did such a dirty thing today. Or let's just talk about what happened before, in front of the whole village, Crushed and rotten, let everyone comment and make it clear. Either sign and leave the book, and from then on, the Lin family and the Li family bridge will return to the bridge road, and my dowry, Lin Yueniang, will be moved away intact. Your Li family's dowry But don’t even want a penny.”

Originally, Mrs. Wang kept quiet because the two of them had no money issues involved.It's good now, seeing that Lin Yueniang is going to be a bandit, she can't stand it anymore.It jumped out suddenly, and scratched at Lin Yueniang's face.

"You little mother-in-law bitch, you don't want to live with the men of the Li family, but you still want to steal the money? You are a damned thing, and you are not afraid of God's thunder and arresting you..." Thinking of not being able to get the money back, Wang swears. I was so angry that my heart ached, I didn't care if anyone made a joke.In her eyes, even a girl has no relatives with money. After all, a girl is going to marry into someone else's family, but the money in her hand is her family's future support.

Compared with Wang's, Lin Yueniang's physical fitness is not bad at all. She only turned sideways, and when she stumbled on the bottom of her foot, Wang climbed onto the kang.Unexpectedly, Wang, who was baring his teeth and claws, swayed under his feet. In order to keep his shaking body from falling, he reached out and grabbed Li Dewang's half-wrapped mattress.

People sometimes burst out laughing, and the men glanced at his place maliciously, and then spit.The women covered their eyes and sighed secretly.There are also a few elderly women who are trembling with anger, cursing that the morals of the world are really declining.

A farce finally ended with the conditions that the Li family agreed to Lin Yueniang.Of course, Lin Yueniang, who had a lot of thoughts, asked the Li family to set up a written statement on the spot, so as not to be unclear later.

There is no need to look for witnesses at all. There are not a hundred or eighty people in the house and yard, but there must be a dozen or so.

In less than a meal, the news about old man Li's family spread in the village with lightning speed.Who doesn't chew this curious and disgusting thing on the dining table and on the ground now!
Anyway, before going to the government to stamp it in the book and change the account post, Lin Yueniang was completely free and at ease.Now her favorite thing to do is to make some stir-fried melon seeds, squat in the courtyard and watch the cats and dogs jumping around in the main courtyard.

Because of his bad reputation and poor conduct, Li Dewang's errand in the backyard of the Yamen was dismissed, and Shuanzi never appeared again.He was afraid of being beaten with a stick by himself that day, so he didn't dare to go back to his house, and he huddled in the small side room of the main house every day.

Old man Li is now rolled his eyes when he goes out, or he is pointed at by others.Wherever he went, no one wanted to come close to him and say hello.This made him, who always cares about face-saving, embarrassing to the point of death, unable to gain a foothold outside, he could only go home and change his ways to teach that shameful scoundrel a lesson.

Mrs. Wang also greeted old man Li twice, but once was tied up tightly by old man Li and stuffed the sole of a stinky shoe in his mouth.Another time, old man Li simply took a pen and paper to write a divorce letter.This back and forth, the Wang family also stopped.

I patted the melon seeds in my hand, and the second embroidery is probably about the same.Next, it is the matter of reconciliation.

The second piece of embroidery was actually ordered by shopkeeper Mei in advance. Because of sister-in-law Mei's relationship, Lin Yueniang didn't take any deposit in advance.

This time it was a picture of rich and noble peonies. After embroidering it, Lin Yueniang asked Sister-in-law Mei to add a line "Only peonies are truly beautiful" compared to a line of words she asked for from a fortune teller.In fact, there is no such thing as a fortune teller, but it is Lin Yueniang's own idea.

Because the embroidery frame and base cloth needlework are provided by the embroidery workshop, Lin Yueniang and the others have no additional investment except for the patterns and embroidery workers.But even so, the embroidery workshop still raised ten taels of silver.

Mrs. Mei took the 20 taels of silver notes, and bit her teeth one by one with the remaining four taels of silver, not because she was afraid that the money was fake, but because she was so happy that she didn't know what to say.Lin Yueniang now has 66 taels of silver on her body alone, and with the one tael added by Wang and Qian as their dowry, she can be regarded as a little rich woman.

I have inquired a long time ago, 66 taels of silver is enough to buy a small yard on the edge of the town, and then eat noodles and buy meat for three or four years regardless.So even if she was kicked out by her natal family after reconciliation, she would not worry about having nowhere to go.
