"I want to buy a haunted house." Su Liu's voice rippled through the room, and Zhao Lizheng spat out a mouthful of tea.
"You, what did you say?" Zhao Lizheng looked at Su Liu in shock. Did he hear it correctly? Buy a haunted house, the one in Bei'aozi?
"Lord Satsuma, I know this is a bit unbelievable, but I just wonder how much money that house costs? Please tell me the number."
Su Liu's expression was very serious, making it impossible to tell that she was joking. Zhao Lizheng frowned and said: "Everyone knows that house is a haunted house. It is haunted all year round. How dare you? Go away, you are just a kid who is just messing around.
, do the adults in your family know?"
"Lord Li Zheng." Su Liu knelt down in front of him with a bang.
"What are you doing?" Zhao Lizheng jumped up in fright.
"I beg Sir Lizheng to make the decision for me." Su Liu said and kowtowed several times.
Zhao Lizheng had a headache and said, "You have something to say, why are you doing this?"
Su Liu raised his head, his face was full of tears, he looked so pitiful, and cried: "Master Li Zheng must also know my life experience. I have been a person who doesn't hurt others since I was a child, and that's all I am.
It’s not surprising, but my own biological father and those relatives, which one has ever considered me as a relative? They only wish that I didn’t drown in a urine bucket when I was born, leaving me to bring trouble to my family to this day.”
"Nonsense." Zhao Lizheng raised his eyebrows in disapproval. He also knew a thing or two about the Su family, but tigers are poisonous and they can't eat their seeds. Any family that doesn't have noisy, beating and scolding children would be as serious as she said.
?
"After all, your direct family members may not be so kind to you, and may even want to drown you. Haven't you grown up over the years? What is it like for a child to run away when he gets angry with his family?
What? Why don’t you go back quickly?”
"Lord Li Zheng, as long as they are kind to me, how can I spread rumors about them? What qualifications does a person like me have?" Su Liu stretched out his left hand.
Zhao Lizheng took a look, and his eyes fell on the scar where her finger was chopped off. He was a little embarrassed and said in a soft voice: "What does that have to do with you buying a haunted house? You are a girl who has not left the palace, and you still want to be alone.
Can’t you live there?”
Su Liu's eyes lit up and he said: "So I beg Mr. Lizheng to make the decision for me. To be honest with you, my mother intends to make peace with my father. My two sisters will definitely follow my mother. Once we leave Su
My family has fallen out with my uncle’s family again. How can we, the three of us, survive without a place to stay?”
"What? Heli?" Zhao Lizheng was shocked again. This is really more incredible than buying a haunted house. There are many men today who beat and scold their wives. They have heard of divorcing their wives, but they have never heard of divorce.
Su Liu talked about Su Changsheng's evil deeds one by one, and finally said with tears in his eyes: "Master Li Zheng, we just want to live like human beings, not inferior to dogs."
There was no drama in her saying this. After all, what she said was true. Su Changsheng was really so cruel, and the three of them were indeed just punching bags, extra.
Zhao Lizheng was a little stunned, but he was an ancient after all, and he believed deeply in his mind that all men were like this. This was not an uncommon thing. Su Liu's behavior seemed to encourage his parents to divorce!
"Since you also know that it's not easy for you ladies to live alone, and yet you dare to have such an idea, you might as well go back and persuade your mothers to be patient and get over it."
Su Liu sneered, bear with it for a while? You have endured it for more than ten years, that's enough.
"I'm afraid that my mother will have been bullied to death if she can't bear the day when the clouds bloom. Master Rizheng thinks that if my two sisters get married in the future, my mother's life will be easier? No, without my sisters to protect her, she
Life will only become more difficult." Su Liu said coldly.
"What nonsense, do they still dare to kill people? I will ask your grandfather to come over later and try to persuade him." Zhao Lizheng said with a glare.
Su Liu snorted and said, "Master Li Zheng wants us three to die faster."
Zhao Lizheng's expression changed and he suddenly became dark: "What do you mean by this?"
"Go and tell my grandpa, don't you tell him that I have come to file a complaint? To be honest with you, the three of us have no breakfast today. If you tell me, will we have something good to eat? I'm afraid so.
Push him out immediately." Su Liu sneered repeatedly.
Zhao Lizheng looked very unhappy after hearing this, and then heard her say: "Master Lizheng, after so many years, my mother has become disheartened and does not want to live with Su Changsheng anymore. She has made up her mind and only wants to get divorced. Even if we mother and daughter
The three of them eat chaff from the bark of trees and don’t blame others, as long as they live.”
"you..."
"Lord Li Zheng, please have mercy on us mother and daughter." Su Liu kowtowed twice more.
Zhao Li was looking at the thin body kneeling on the ground. It was hard for an upright official to deal with household chores. It was like this.
He sighed and said, "Get up first."
Su Liu's body trembled slightly after hearing this, and she stood up tremblingly. She felt so evil in her heart that she knelt down at every turn. She was also caught in the drama.
"That house in Be'aozi has been empty for many years. If you really want to buy it, it's not impossible. It's just that the place is evil. You..."
"We are not afraid." Su Liu said immediately: "If you are upright, you are not afraid of a slanted shadow. As we say, we have sympathy for each other. I believe that the poor Lu family will also pity our mother and daughter." After a pause, she added: "I just don't know how to do it.
How much silver?"
"There are also two houses there. They are haunted and have been empty for so long. They are not expensive. If you really want to buy them, you can buy them for just three taels of silver." Zhao Lizheng thought for a while and said, in fact, let alone three taels of silver, the houses are just free.
If he went out to live there, I'm afraid no one would dare to live there, but after all, it was something in the village, so he had to charge some money. Since there was someone who took advantage of him to buy it, he just went along with it.
"Do you have a land deed?" Su Liu's eyes lit up. Three taels of silver was not much, so even if it was borrowed, she would borrow it.
"Of course there is, including vegetable fields and so on, one-third of an acre." Zhao Lizheng stroked his beard, then tilted his eyes at her and said, "But, do you have the money?"
Su Liu thought about it, shook his head, and said, "Even if you borrow it, you still have to borrow it."
"Children still don't know how difficult the world is." Zhao Lizheng sighed and said, "I advise you to think clearly. Living alone is not as easy as you think for this orphan and widowed mother."
Su Liu pursed her lips and smiled, and said: "Master Li Zheng, if I give you the money, you can sell that house to me."
"Can."
Su Liu suddenly smiled happily, said politely, and left with a lot of thanks.
After she left, Mrs. Lizheng came out and said to Zhao Lizheng: "It's incredible, how dare this Liuzhier have such an idea?"
"No." Zhao Lizheng nodded, stroking his beard and said, "I've also heard people say that this girl has changed a lot, and it's true. See what she said, I'm afraid it won't be easy in the future!"
