4383 - Gifts to Liu

Mother Li smiled naturally: "As long as Fourth Aunt doesn't dislike me, of course I'd be happy to go over and chat with you."

Both of them looked at Lao Yangtou together, expecting his final decision.

Old Yang was a little hesitant, because Liao Meiying was the rightful daughter-in-law...

Mother Li said again: "We all came here to give birth to sons and adoptive daughters. This pregnant woman's emotions are more prone to ups and downs than ordinary people. Xiuxin has been tossing around for a while tonight. Let Yongxian accompany him, and the young couple say a few heartfelt words , it must be better for the fetus."

"I'm now hoping that Xiuxin can raise a good baby, so that I can give birth to Yongxian's white and fat son again!"

Mother Li's words completely dispelled Old Yang's worries.

"That's right, Yongxian, don't read the book tonight, just stay with Xiuxin and talk, and it won't be too late to read it tomorrow!" Old Yang said in an orderly tone.

Yang Yongxian leaned over slightly: "Yes, my grandson will follow Grandpa's orders."

Li Xiuxin smiled imperceptibly, she hugged Xiu'er and bowed towards Old Yang, "Thank you for your care, then I will take Xiu'er back to the house first."

Old Yang nodded his head, "Let's leave, everyone!"

Everyone dispersed, and Liao Meiying was left alone in the noisy room.

She looked at the closed door on the opposite side, Xiu'er's laughter from behind the door, and Yang Yongxian and Li Xiuxin's murmurs, Liao Meiying clenched her fists...

In the backyard, in Mrs. Liu's house.

Mother Li took out a single row of hairpin silver hairpins from her sleeve and stuffed them into Mrs. Liu's hand, and said gratefully: "His fourth aunt, Xiuxin told me that these days are thanks to you, openly and secretly. This is the same as the silver hairpin, which was given to me by my natal family when I got married."

"I was not willing to give Xiuxin to her when she got married, but now I give this and the silver hairpin to you, thank you for taking care of their mother and child!"

Mother Li spoke sincerely, but at the moment Liu's attention was all on the silver hairpin.

The workmanship of this silver hairpin is good, and the hairpin on it is also exquisite. If you stick it on your head and walk out, it will definitely make the ignorant women in the village envious.

If you don't want to wear it anymore, you should be able to sell it for one or two taels of silver to buy rice grains and fish for a month or two.

"Oh, this gift is too expensive, I dare not accept it..."

Mrs. Liu said this, but took the silver hairpin with her hand honestly, put it in front of her eyes and looked at it carefully, her face was full of joy, and she was reluctant to let go.

Seeing this scene, Mother Li felt at ease.

Sure enough, it is still very useful to bribe a capable person from the old Yang family to come out to speak out at critical times.

"Compared to Fourth Aunt who took care of Xiuxin's mother and child, no matter how expensive a gift is, it is worthwhile in front of your kindness." Mother Li said.

"It's going to be a long time in the future, and I have to trouble your fourth aunt to take care of me!" Mother Li raised her hand to touch her tears and said.

Liu's gaze finally shifted from the silver hairpin to Mother Li.

"Don't worry, I will definitely take care of them. Liao Meiying is very fake. She does one thing in person and another in another's back. I just can't get used to that kind of person." Liu said.

"Although Xiuxin is a bit aloof and lonely, but Xiuxin is honest and doesn't hide anything. This character is like me. Even if you don't give me something, I will take care of their mother and child!"

While speaking, Mrs. Liu had already stuffed the silver hairpin into her bosom and put it away.

The hairpin got into her arms, and unless she died, no one would want to take it from her!

Although Mrs. Liu's bed was very dirty, and Ms. Liu went to bed without washing her feet, Mother Li still suppressed the discomfort in her heart, and sat down on the bed with no abnormality, and the two of them faced each other to make daily routines.

It's Mrs. Liu and Mother Li who are talking about the big and small things in the old Yang's house here, and then they talk about the village, and the village then drags back to the old Yang's house...

Mother Li listened patiently, always with a smile on her face, and when Mrs. Liu deliberately tried to trick her, Mother Li would be very cooperative and ask a few questions.

This really greatly satisfied Liu's desire to confide, and she hasn't enjoyed talking like this for a long, long time.

In the end, the topic still fell on the matter of the big house of the old Yang family.

Mrs. Liu said: "Don't underestimate this woman, Liao Meiying. There is a saying that dwarves don't use knives to kill people. This woman is a smiling tiger who pretends to be a good person. Pretending to be magnanimous, on the one hand, to please Yongxian and other members of Lao Yang’s family, and on the other hand, to let Xiuxin relax his vigilance!”

Hearing Mrs. Liu's words, Mother Li could only smile wryly.

"Fourth aunt, you have sharp eyes, and you see people and things more clearly than I do. I have lived a long life in vain, let alone my family's upright temper!" Mother Li said.

"Just take what happened tonight. When I went to the theater, I was really grateful to Liao Meiying. I think this woman is really virtuous."

"But this time, Yongxian was furious. After thinking about it, I always feel that it is not the same thing."

"I'm not afraid of your joke, Fourth Aunt. My heart is still pounding. I'm afraid of Yongxian, and I can't make up my mind. Did we misunderstand Liao Meiying, or what? I wanted to annoy her, but I couldn't. When I got up, I felt guilty instead, as if we had hurt her, look at the back, she knelt down to help us beg for mercy, I really don't see any bad intentions!"

Hearing Mother Li's words, Mrs. Liu curled her lips and smiled disapprovingly.

"Liao Meiying did it on purpose. If she said the same thing in front of Yongxian in a different tone, the taste would be different. This is her skill, we can't learn it!" Liu said.

"Don't you think it's okay if she doesn't intercede with Yongxian? Once she pleads, Yongxian will become even more angry?" Liu asked.

Mother Li nodded, "That's a little bit."

"It's not just one point, it's obviously to persuade, but secretly it's fanning the flames, otherwise Master Yongxian wouldn't impulsively say that he wants to give up his heart." Liu said.

Li's mother smiled wryly, her heart was filled with emptiness.

Not only did she see through this level, but even the fourth aunt saw it. It can be seen that Liao Meiying is really pretending to be virtuous and magnanimous.

"Hey, even if we can see that she is faking it, so what?" Mother Li sighed deliberately.

"After all, she is the wife that Yongxian Mingmei is marrying. Xiuxin is a concubine, so I want to be a slave to her."

"Nowadays, Xiuxin's upright temper is not pleasing to the elders of Lao Yang's family, while Liao Meiying has established a good relationship with everyone. Only the two of us can see her bad intentions, but others can't. No way!"

"Even if we say it, there is no basis for it, and others don't believe it. Even if others believe it, what can we do?"

"Since ancient times, wives and concubines have always fought openly and secretly. Let's take the fourth aunt, you and Xiaojuan as an example. Aren't you always fighting? Sometimes things overwhelm the west wind, and sometimes the west wind overwhelms the east wind. There is no way. When encountering this kind of situation, you will pretend to cry. Yes, we can only waste our time doing this!"

Mother Li's words aroused Liu's anger.
