Back to the ancient restaurant

As soon as Li Sanbo's words came out, Li Zi'an laughed for a while. Looking at Li Sanbo with a puzzled face, Li Zian brushed off his sleeves which were wrinkled by him, and snorted coldly.

"Uncle San, you really deserve to be an old businessman. My nephew sincerely admires you."

Sanbo Li couldn't hear the thorn in Li Zi'an's words, his pleading face instantly sank, he looked at Li Zian with a stern face and back, and asked in a deep voice: "Zian, I am your elder after all. What do you mean by saying that?!"

Li Zian knew that he would put on the airs of an elder, walked down a step, looked into Li Sanbo's eyes, Li Zian said in a deep voice: "You should be glad that you are my elder, if it was someone else, I would have kicked him out a long time ago." gone."

Seeing that Li Sanbo opened his mouth to scold, Li Zian raised his hand to stop what he was about to say, and then said: "What do you mean by asking me, I want to ask your intentions instead! You keep saying that your cousin was tricked, It takes 2000 taels of silver before the other party is willing to let you go. You have been a businessman for most of your life. Even if you don’t have 2000 taels of silver in your hands, you still have 800 taels of silver, right? No matter how bad you buy the real estate in the town, it’s always worth it. It can be worth a few hundred taels of silver. There is also the property of my hometown. Others don’t know it, but I know the bottom line. You can always make it up if you piece it together. What do you mean by crying in the shop?"

"Li Zi'an, I'm your third uncle, even your father would be polite when he met me, how dare you talk to me like that?!" Li Zianbo was offended by Li Zian, and suddenly he couldn't get off the stage. , pointing at Li Zian's nose and shouted.

It was noon, and there were a lot of people coming and going to eat in the shop, and this was exactly what Li Zian wanted.

Looking at the third uncle who was about to jump in front of him, he just smiled lightly, stretched out his hand and pushed Sanbo Li's hand away from his face, and replied: "Don't say you are just my third uncle, even if my father is here today, I will do the same." That’s it. Haha, but speaking of it, you’re much better than my father, and you’re going to give my shop to the gambling house to pay off the debt for your gambler’s son. Even my father wouldn’t do it without asking for my opinion. , you always help me to make up my mind directly, and you feel that I am your family."

"Ziqiang is your cousin! You are all surnamed Li, we are all family after all. You are so cold-blooded and ruthless to the family, who will dare to patronize your business in the future."

"The old neighbors present also know that our fourth bedroom and your third bedroom have been separated for decades. The exchanges between our two families can be counted on one hand throughout the year. You never thought of us when you were living a good life. At this time, I want to blackmail me with family love and righteousness to fill in the hole for you. Why should the shop I worked so hard to pay off the debt for a gambler? Are you thick-skinned? Li Ziqiang is my cousin?" Li Zi When An said this, he bit the word 'cousin' very hard, and the meaning was self-evident.

How could Sanbo Li not be able to hear it, but Li Zian's words made sense everywhere, even though he was an elder, he was irrefutable.

After looking around at the crowd, Li Zian stretched out his finger to his chest. "You say I'm cold-blooded and ruthless? Have you, Sanfang, ever had feelings for us? When you use moral standards to demand others, please ask Sanbo to reflect on yourself. Is it because I don't want to save you, or you have ulterior motives."

After Li Zi'an finished speaking, he didn't look at Sanbo Li again, clasped his fists deeply to the surrounding crowd and made a deep bow, said "laugh", and led the few people who were filled with righteous indignation into the shop.

"Boss, if you want me to say that you are too polite to him, if my relatives dared to say that, I would have kicked him out with a broom a long time ago. How could I give him a chance to be arrogant here."

Hearing this, Li Zi'an couldn't help smiling wryly.

It's not because his father couldn't stand up by himself, which left them trouble.As long as the old man can be half as tough as Li Sanbo in front of his brothers, he will not be tyrannized by the third uncle riding his neck on their family's head, and he and his brothers in the family have also suffered a lot of wronged .

Previously, Li Zi'an wanted to find a chance for the two families to break up, and it would be best not to have any further contact.But at that time, Li Zi'an was worried about his father, and Li Zian endured it all the time without having an attack.Now that there is finally a suitable opportunity, Li Zi'an will naturally not let it go.

……

When Li Sanbo came back from Li Zian's shop, he felt that he had lost all face.Thinking that he had fallen behind in front of his nephew, he couldn't help feeling extremely angry.Seeing his mother-in-law and daughter-in-law wiping tears facing each other, Li Sanbo was even more depressed.

"Cry, cry, cry, you know how to cry! It's useless at critical times."

At this time, the third aunt didn't care about being afraid, and immediately went forward and asked, "His father, have you raised any money? How much did Zian give?"

Hearing what the third aunt said, Sanbo Li recalled what Li Zi'an said just now, gritted his teeth with a cold snort, and said, "Hmph! That little bastard gave you money for the fart. I just asked him to mortgage the shop to the gambling house. I blasted out."

The third aunt didn't expect her man to open his mouth and ask someone to come to the shop, so she stayed for a while and didn't think there was a problem.But when he thought that Li Zian didn't care about his relatives at all, his heart suddenly became angry.It's just that there's nothing he can do if he doesn't give it to him, and he still asks Li Sanbo what to do with a low eyebrow and a handkerchief.

"He is a good son raised by you. If you don't want to learn anything, you just want to learn how to gamble. This is good, the whole family will be lost to him. I don't think there is any need to redeem it, just beat him to death." Li Sanbo Looking at his mother-in-law with a bitter face in front of him, he gave her a hard look and said.

Hearing this, the third aunt became anxious immediately.

"His father, the two of us have only one son. If something happens to him, we won't even have a person who can carry flags and throw pots in a hundred years."

Sanbo Li said he couldn't save him, but after all Li Ziqiang was the son he held in his hands and grew up, how could he just watch him being rubbed to death.Just how could 2000 taels of silver be raised so easily?

Just as Li Zian calculated, he still has 1000 taels of silver in his hand, and if the current house is sold, it can be sold for 400 taels of silver.It's not enough to pawn the other sevens and eights.But these are the foundations of his life, and if he throws them out, he will never get them back.

Although it is true that Ziqiang is his biological son, it is difficult to rely on his temperament in the future.Although he is eager to save his son, he can't help thinking about his pension...

Thinking about it, Li Sanbo sighed and raised his head to look at the door.Seeing the nearly ten-year-old granddaughter struggling to suppress her fear, standing at the door trembling with her innocent little granddaughter in her arms.Li Sanbo finally suppressed the anger in his heart, stood up and let out a long sigh.

"Forget it, it's my bad luck that such a disappointing thing happened at home. You go and get the land deed and house deed, and I'll go out for a while."

The third aunt knew that Li Laosan was softening her heart, and thinking of her son whose life or death was uncertain, she hurriedly restrained her mind and walked into the room.Li Zeng, who was standing aside, looked at her mother-in-law's back, clenched her hands into fists unconsciously, and didn't even feel her nails piercing her flesh.

Because of the money, the casino happily released the man.But at this time, Li Ziqiang's whole body has been beaten like a pig's head, and two of his front teeth have been knocked out, and his speech is a bit leaky.

Uncle Li and Aunt Li felt heartbroken when they saw their son being beaten so badly.Thinking of the unsecured mansion and business, he burst into tears.

After she stopped her tears and looked at the daughter-in-law who was like a wooden stake, she immediately had an outlet to vent her anger, and raised her hand to knock the teacup on the table to the ground.

The crumbs of the teacup splashed and hit the back of the daughter-in-law Li Zengshi's hand.Li Zeng couldn't help but let out a soft cry from the pain, but before she could check the injury on the back of her hand, she was slapped on the face by her mother-in-law.

Since the miscarriage, Li Zeng has never recovered.Now being slapped by my mother-in-law, the whole person was caught off guard and immediately fell to the ground, pressing his hands on the broken teacup on the ground, and blood gushed out of his palms.Seeing his mother's miserable state, Li Wenchun immediately put down the crying sister in his arms, ran to Li Zeng's side and helped her up.

"Mom, do you want it?"

Hearing this, Li Zeng endured the pain and shook his head at his sensible eldest daughter.

"What are you doing here in a daze, why don't you boil water and wash your man quickly? I have no eyesight at all, what's the use of marrying you in my family! A loser brings a nest of losers. My old Li's family has really lived in eight lifetimes Blood mold married you." The third aunt cursed at her daughter-in-law with her waist in her hands.

Li Zeng didn't dare to reply after hearing this, bit her lower lip, lowered her head and walked to the kitchen with her two daughters.

Stirring up the fire nimbly, Li Zengshi sat in front of the stove, staring at the polished kitchen knife on the chopping board, and couldn't help being stunned for a while, a thought was about to move in his mind.Turning her head to look at the flowery faces of her two daughters, Li Zeng could no longer hold back the tears she had held back for a long time.

In the evening, the cold wind raged, making the door panels whine.After finishing dinner, Li Zeng went back to her room and held her little daughter in her arms, shaking her body, humming a little song softly to put her to sleep.After a while, Li Ziqiang kicked open the door and walked in, cursed twice and fell asleep.

Hearing the deafening snoring, Li Zeng carefully carried the child out of bed, walked slowly to the door of the west chamber, opened the door and put the child beside the eldest daughter who was also asleep.Bowing her head and gently kissing the foreheads of her two daughters, Li Zeng held back tears and touched their immature faces, then walked out of the room.

The cold wind outside the door was still there, but there were bursts of thunder before Futian arrived.Standing in the courtyard, Li Zeng's tears were instantly blown into the cold wind.Looking up at the dazzling lightning above my head, I thought to myself that the heavens have no mercy on me.Looking back, Li Zeng's expression changed, and he resolutely stepped into the kitchen.
