Chapter 36

Mrs. Zhang secretly took out Li Qingqing's jewelry box, opened it, and looked at it. There were some valuables in the jewelry box. She picked out a pair of silver bracelets and a silver hairpin, and hurriedly put them away. Put it in his pocket, and then put the jewelry box back to the original position of the box, and closed the box.

Seeing Li Qingqing's so many clothes, Mrs. Zhang was a little greedy, but she couldn't take them away, so she could only complain to herself, "Can she wear so many clothes? What a prodigal, what a joke."

Li Ren urged, "Father doesn't have much luggage, let's move them in quickly."

After finishing speaking, he was about to go home with a big box.

"Wait a minute, wait a minute." Mrs. Zhang lowered her voice and stopped Li Ren.

After Li Ren stopped, he looked at Mrs. Zhang puzzled. Mrs. Zhang took Li Fugui's box and said, "Let me see first, what did my father bring back? Didn't he say that he made a lot of money in the capital not long ago?" Well, then he must have a lot of good things."

She opened the box that Li Fugui brought back, checked it a few times, but found that there was only a bag of coarse clothes, and some odds and ends like teapots, teacups, pots and pans, and did not see anything worthwhile. objects, and no silver was found.

Mrs. Zhang frowned suspiciously, "Why did dad only have these few things? Why did he bring back all the pots and bowls, and such broken things have to be brought back all the way?"

She felt a little strange, if Li Fugui really came back after earning a sum of money from business as he said in the letter, then he should bring back some good things instead of a bunch of pots and pans what.

Mrs. Zhang hastily removed another box from the second carriage, and opened it to look at it. This box was smaller than the one just now, and it contained several pieces of women's clothes, some cheap jewelry and Cosmetics, a few feet of new cloth and two common porcelain bottles, still nothing of value.

Li Ren on the side whispered, "Okay, don't rummage through it, this box should belong to the stepmother, don't mess it up and she will be very upset if she finds out."

Mrs. Zhang stood up all of a sudden, stared at Li Ren, and said, "I don't care if she's happy or not. She lives in my house now, and she has to bear with it if she's not happy. Haven't you seen it yet? Our father brought it back this time." They are all clothes and rags, nothing good at all. Didn’t he say that he made money? Where did the money go? If he was really rich, he would even take home bowls and basins take it?"

After she said this, Li Ren also realized this, and he muttered, "No way, maybe the money is on Dad, and Dad is reluctant to spend it? Dad shouldn't lie to us."

"Hmph, your father won't lie to you?" Mrs. Zhang snorted, "He can even bring home the stepmother and the younger sister born to the stepmother without telling you, what else can he not do?" .”

Now, Mrs. Zhang suddenly discovered that they might have been deceived by Li Fugui. Li Fugui might not have any money at all, and lied about earning a lot of money just to live in their house.

It's too late to say anything now, Li Fugui's family has already arrived, Zhang can only be angry and be patient for a while.

When Li Ren and Zhang moved their luggage into the west wing room, Xu and Li Qingqing were lying on the kang, while Li Fugui sat on a wooden chair without saying a word.

Li Qingqing murmured coquettishly, "Mom, this room is too small, can we ask them to change it to a bigger one, otherwise this small room will be really boring."

Mrs. Zhang got angry when she saw her, and she snorted loudly, "There is no room left, if you think it's crowded, don't live there, go lie down outside."

Hearing the sound, Mrs. Xu sat up, touched Li Qingqing's arm, and comforted her daughter, then she looked at Mrs. Zhang again, and said, "Qingqing is just not used to it, don't take her words to heart, her father They are all living here, how could she lie outside, wouldn't that embarrass Old Li's family."

Mrs. Zhang gave her a blank look, didn't say a word, and thought to herself, only your broken mouth can say, you are waiting, and you will be thrown out sooner or later.

At this time, when Jin Zhu and Yin Zhu saw their parents coming, they became more courageous. The two of them went over to grab Li Fugui's clothes and shouted for good food.

Li Fugui touched his pocket, but there was nothing in it. He smiled awkwardly, "Grandpa doesn't have any delicious food here, you go and play first."

Jin Zhu and Yin Zhu refused, and still shouted, "We don't care, we want delicious food. Grandpa, you must have it. Mother said that if grandpa is rich, he will have delicious food."

"No, Grandpa really doesn't have one."

"If you want something delicious, you want something delicious. If you don't give it, you won't leave!"

Jin Zhu and Yin Zhu gave full play to their thick-skinned skills, one pulled Li Fugui's clothes, the other sat on the ground and hugged Li Fugui's calf, insisting on getting food.

Mrs. Zhang felt a little happy when she saw that the children were arguing with grandpa. She wished that the two sons would continue to quarrel. Whoever made Li Fugui lie and deceive others was all asked for by him!

Li Qingqing was lying on the kang with her eyes closed. When she heard the noisy voices of Jinzhu and Yinzhu, she felt a headache, so she shouted impatiently, "Stop arguing, what do you want to eat? I want you to be greedy." Father and mother will buy it for you, don't disturb me to sleep here."

Mrs. Xu nodded, "Your sister-in-law is sleeping, you go out to play, don't disturb her here."

Yin Zhu was stopped by Li Qingqing, and he didn't say anything more, but Jin Zhu was older and more courageous, and he had inherited Zhang's thick skin, so he wasn't afraid of Li Qingqing and Xu's at all.

Jin Zhu walked to the kang, looked at Li Qingqing, and suddenly said, "Sister-in-law, your pocket is bulging, do you have something delicious?"

Li Qingqing opened her eyes and touched her pocket, only to remember that there was a pack of unfinished dried fruit in her pocket. She covered her pocket and said displeasedly, "No, it's not for food. Go away."

"Isn't it food? I think it looks like food. Take it out and show me." Jin Zhu refused, insisting on looking at the things in Li Qingqing's pocket.

Li Qingqing didn't speak, and was too lazy to talk to Jin Zhu, but Jin Zhu saw that Li Qingqing refused to take it out, so he went directly to put his hand in Li Qingqing's pocket, insisting on taking a look.

"Go away, you greedy child!" Li Qingqing sat up angrily, and slapped Jin Zhu's hand hard.

Mrs. Xu also frowned, "Boss, everyone, please take care of this child, this child is too uneducated, how can you take other people's things, how do you usually discipline children."

Jin Zhu was beaten. He touched the back of his hand and showed it to Mrs. Zhang aggrieved, "Mother, she hit me!"

Of course Mrs. Zhang wanted to protect her child, so she glared at Li Qingqing and said, "Sister-in-law, why are you so grown-up and still grabbing food with a child? Come on, so what if Jin Zhu eats it? You live in my house now, but you don't even want to take out any food, you have a thick skin!"
