Chapter 21 The spoiled and wallowing sister-in-law
"Ruyan, you have misunderstood Yuyan and my son-in-law. They are not here to borrow money."
Mother Li pointed to the bundles she had just brought into the main room and continued: "Look, my son-in-law bought these specially to honor me."
"Who among you doesn't know that Linjia Village is the poorest among all our villages? What can he bring to you?"
Liu Ruyan glanced at Lin Xiao and said harshly:
"I see, they just want to use the cheapest things in exchange for our return gifts!"
Saying that, Liu Ruyan glared at Mother Li and warned:
"Damn old woman, let me tell you, don't even think about subsidizing outsiders for the local guy who worked so hard for you, otherwise I won't be done with you!"
Li Yuyan is a man, and he has no feelings for Li's mother, so he never thought of speaking for Li's mother.
Lin Xiao, who was standing aside, couldn't stand it, and she retorted:
"How can you call your mother-in-law 'a dead old woman'? Has your upbringing left home?"
"Not only will I call her a 'dead old woman', but I will also ask my boss to throw her into the mountains and kill herself in a few days! If you don't like it, just get out of here!"
Liu Ruyan felt that she was still angry after being scolded like this. She simply pointed at Lin Xiao's nose and continued to curse:
"Let me tell you, Li Yuyan is now a member of your family. Whether you can support her or not is the business of your Lin family village and has nothing to do with our family! If you want to die, let me die far away from you. Don't do anything that is not there...
…”
"Snapped!"
Before Liu Ruyan finished scolding, Li Yuyan gave her a loud slap unexpectedly, knocking her unconscious.
After a while, she regained her composure. She covered the side of her face that was hit and looked at Li Yuyan in disbelief:
"You hit me? How dare you hit me?"
Then she rolled around at Li Yuyan like a shrew, but was blocked by Li Yuyan who easily held her head with one hand.
Liu Ruyan, who did not ask for any benefits, sat down in the gray courtyard, pointed at Li Yugua, cried and cursed:
"You are a murderer! You don't even care about your own woman being bullied by outsiders, Li Yugua~~ you are a coward~~"
"My life, Liu Ruyan, is also miserable! Why did I choose such a useless thing like you in the first place! How can I still be alive even if my own woman is bullied by outsiders~~"
"No one in your old Li family is good, so you all work together to bully a weak woman like me. Well, in that case, I will follow your wishes! My life is miserable~~Li Yugua~~You coward will suffer a thousand blows
Knife~~”
Why did you start singing even though you were crying?
Lin Xiao was burnt on the outside and tender on the inside. The villagers watching the excitement outside were accustomed to this and didn't say much.
However, Li Yuyan was surprised when he attacked Liu Ruyan just now.
"My sister-in-law attacked my sister-in-law? How strange!"
"It's different after you get married. In the past, let alone doing anything, I didn't even dare to express my anger when I saw my sister-in-law!"
"Isn't that right? Is this Black Widow really rich?"
"How can an underdeveloped country bring back so many things? Rice, maltose, salt, etc., which ones are not valuables?"
"Tsk, tsk, tsk, if I had such a sister-in-law, I would wake up laughing even when I fell asleep. The Li Yugua family wouldn't know how to behave!"
"That's right, her mother-in-law is not too old or too young. I heard that she was very ill some time ago and was about to die. Today she got a little better and got up."
"Old Li's family has done something wrong! They have such an evil wife."
"Li Yugua is not a thing. How can he not know what his woman is like? He is used to it!"
…
Maybe the villagers watching the excitement outside were talking too loudly, or maybe he was humiliated by his own woman in public and lost face.
Li Yugua's face instantly became extremely gloomy. He rolled up his sleeves and was about to use force on Li Yuyan, but Lin Xiao stood in front of him without hesitation.
Lin Xiao originally didn't want to interfere with the Li family's business, but when she heard the villagers' comments, her heart felt heavy and her throat felt uncomfortably tight as if something was stuck.
She looked directly into Li Yugua's eyes and shouted angrily:
"My sister has been wronged, but not only do you not understand the reason, but you also want to take action. Are you still a man?!"
As soon as these words came out, the villagers who were watching burst into laughter.
Li Yugua's face became even worse, he was so angry, and couldn't say anything to argue, so he had to raise his fist and swing it at Lin Xiao's head.
No matter if he is the new sister-in-law, if he dares to embarrass himself, I will beat him!
Naturally, Li Yuyan would not just watch Lin Xiao being beaten. When he was planning to take this opportunity to beat Li Yugua later, Li's mother hugged this unlucky child from behind who had married a wife and forgot about her mother.
.
"Son, he is your brother-in-law, how can you do something to him!"
When Liu Ruyan, who was sitting on the ground, saw Mother Li stopping Li Yugua from taking action, she immediately jumped up from the ground, put her hands on her hips, pointed at Mother Li, and cursed:
"You old man, this guy who was stabbed a thousand times is no longer a member of our Lao Li family. Why are you still turning your elbows outward?"
Mother Li was so unreasonably scolded by Liu Ruyan that her body started to tremble with anger, and she fell backwards without being able to stand still.
If Li Yuyan hadn't quickly helped her with his quick eyes and hands, I'm afraid she would have had to see her dead old man.
"Mom, are you okay?"
When Liu Ruyan saw this scene, she jumped up and down in anger:
"You are a person who has been stabbed a thousand times, what are you going to do to support this old and immortal person? If she doesn't die, our whole family won't have enough to eat, do you know that?"
Mother Li fell into Li Yuyan's arms, her eyes closed tightly, her face pale, and her body twitching constantly.
"Mother? Mother?"
Li Yuyan called softly, but Mother Li still showed no sign of waking up.
"Hahaha, great! The dead old woman is finally dead!"
When Liu Ruyan saw Mrs. Li unconscious, she clapped her hands and cheered.
The villagers who were watching the excitement scolded Liu Ruyan as a crazy and unfilial woman, but she ignored them and continued to curse.
Lin Xiao glared hard at Liu Ruyan, whose face was distorted by excitement, and went straight to Mother Li. Looking at her, it didn't look like epilepsy, but more like a symptom of starvation.
She quickly went to the main room and broke off a piece of maltose, dissolved it a little with water, sprinkled a few grains of salt in it, and drank it for Mother Li.
No one knew what Lin Xiao's intention was, but they all watched eagerly out of curiosity, including Liu Ruyan, who was still rolling around just now.
After a while, Mother Li, who was unconscious, opened her eyes leisurely and said blankly: "What's wrong with me?"
"Auntie, you're feeling hungry. How many days have you not eaten?"
Mother Li timidly glanced at Liu Ruyan, who turned from joy to anger, and lowered her head in silence.
Li Yuyan rushed to Tianling Gai in anger and shouted at Liu Ruyan: "Tell me! How long have you been hungry?!"
Liu Ruyan was frightened by the angry Li Yuyan. She didn't know how to deal with it for a moment, so she could only respond instinctively:
"Yeah, it didn't take long, she, she couldn't eat, just, just three days, yes, just three days."
Continuing from last time.
That day, he got up at around four o'clock as usual and went for a morning run.
However, the weather that day was not very good, it was gray and overcast.
He ran to the creek he frequented and saw something strange.
He saw a line of people floating on the river towards where he was.
At first he thought he was dazzled, so he rubbed his eyes and took a closer look. He was not dazzled. There was really someone floating on the river towards him.
He suddenly felt his scalp hairy and ran back quickly.
But his running speed was nowhere near as fast as someone floating over. Soon he was surrounded by the group of non-human beings...
