Chapter 45 Framed
For two consecutive weekends, since the Lin family sent fish, chicken, and some fresh leafy vegetables, Li Luo no longer had to go out to buy vegetables, but she still had to deliver meals to Ling Zhuoqun.
When Li Luo delivered the meal, he found that many people had gathered around the farm.
Li Luo wondered, is today the time for shopping?
When I walked forward to take a look, I found that someone was causing a trouble. The protagonists of the incident were Wang Xiumei, her sister-in-law Li Ailian, and her husband Li Aiguo.
The reason was that the day before, Li Aiguo came home from working in the fields and saw Wang Xiumei acting suspiciously and hiding something. When he found out and pulled it out, he found it was a men's tie.
Li Aiguo got angry and slapped Wang Xiumei in the face: "I'm working outside from dawn to dusk, and you're having sex with a man right under my nose?"
"I told you before that you should be more efficient when working. Now, after the Ling family got a daughter-in-law, they fired you."
"I thought you could beg Xiao Ling to keep you, but I didn't expect you to be so undisciplined and even hide your adulterer's tie? I have to find out who your adulterer is!?"
Wang Xiumei was slapped in the face, and half of her face felt burning with pain. Soon, a clear mark of five fingers appeared on her old face.
"Li Aiguo, how can you live like this? How dare you hit me? If I hadn't worked so hard in the Ling family, would you be able to eat such good meat? And save so much money every month?"
"Fortunately, your mother is not at home today, otherwise I would have been killed by you!" Wang Xiumei was furious. It had been a long time since she had suffered such an injustice.
"I haven't explained anything to you yet, and you're getting angry here? Do you really think I don't have a temper?" Wang Xiumei angrily got down to the ground, picked up a rolling pin in the kitchen, and hit Li Aiguo with it.
"If you shout any louder, people from all over the village will accuse me of cheating on you. You've ruined my innocence!"
"Ouch, wife, please stop hitting me. If you continue to hit me, your husband will be crippled!" Li Aiguo immediately begged for mercy.
"Humph, if this tie really belongs to my adulterer, do you think I will come back to be with you? Don't you see the workmanship of this tie? Can people in our village afford it?"
Wang Xiumei held the tie in her hand, glanced at Li Aiguo and said arrogantly.
Li Aiguo immediately stepped forward, looked at the workmanship of the tie, and then said with a curious expression: "Wife, where did you get this tie?"
Wang Xiumei raised her eyelids and glanced at Li Aiguo: "Want to know?"
"Oh, honey, don't keep me in suspense. Of course I want to know." Li Aiguo had an expression that showed he was extremely curious.
"This is Ailian's red thread. If Ailian is willing to cooperate with us in a play, then our Li family will be prosperous!" The more Wang Xiumei thought about it, the more she felt that her plan was feasible, otherwise she would not have hidden the tie.
"Tomorrow we will take Ailian to Xiaoling's farm to cry." Wang Xiumei said with a calculating look on her face.
"Why are you crying? What does this have to do with Xiaolian?" Li Aiguo was puzzled. He didn't know what his wife was thinking. Not only could she get meat back from the Ling family, but she also got a salary of 30 yuan, and now she also got a tie from the Ling family...
"Where is Xiaolian? Why haven't I seen her recently?" Li Aiguo suddenly asked.
Wang Aimei also had no idea why Li Ailian always went outside during this period of time. She was now as unknown as a dragon.
"Your own sister, you asked me about it. I don't know, maybe she is entangled with her ex-husband's family again." Wang Aimei said unhappily. Hearing this, Li Aiguo's eyes dodged for a moment, and then he said loudly: "Don't talk nonsense, Xiaolian will get married in the future, there is no ex-husband's family!"
"Tell me quickly, how did our family get close to the Ling family this time?" Li Aiguo quickly changed the subject, "Besides, doesn't the Ling family have a new daughter-in-law now? How confident are you in doing this?"
Wang Xiumei snorted coldly, then said with a sly smile: "Of course I am 100% sure."
Then, she twisted Li Aiguo's ear and whispered a few words. Li Aiguo's eyes changed from shock at first, to acceptance, and finally to greed.
"Just do it! Otherwise, our family's huge source of income will be cut off, right? But, wouldn't this be bad for Xiaolian's reputation...?
After all, Xiaolian is a girl. If this thing doesn't work out, I'm afraid she won't be able to get married in the future, right?"
Li Aiguo was still worried.
"Think about it, if we succeed, this will be a lifetime golden rice bowl! You don't have to get up early and work late. If Xiaolian feels it's not suitable, we can move to the city in the future.
There are gossips in the village, but can't people in the city say anything? In my opinion, Xiao Ling's farm will only get bigger and bigger, so the money will naturally increase, and then all of it will belong to our Li family!"
Wang Xiumei's words were like the devil whispering in Li Aiguo's ear, making Li Aiguo's eyes more and more blurred, and then absolutely determined: "Yes! Our son hasn't married yet. If Xiao Ling were my brother-in-law, would I still worry about these things?
We should also marry a daughter-in-law from the city. Xiao Ling's daughter-in-law is so pretty, and her skin is so smooth. She is totally different from the old women in the countryside. We should also meet this standard when looking for a daughter-in-law!"
Li Aiguo slapped his thigh and said excitedly.
Wang Xiumei had no idea that Li Aiguo would have such thoughts. Just because Li Luo was beautiful, if Li Aiguo was twenty years younger, wouldn't he be following Li Luo's ass?
Wang Xiumei glared at Li Aiguo angrily: "Is it possible that you still have that little girl Li Luo in your heart? Are you really thinking about your son?"
Li Aiguo laughed, and seeing that Wang Xiumei's face was not right, he hurriedly said: "Of course I am thinking about my son! I, Li Aiguo, am lucky to have found such a capable wife like you. When our family becomes rich, I will buy you a gold bracelet!
If you dress up a little better, you will definitely be prettier than the prettiest girl in our village!"
Li Aiguo said a lot of good things, and Wang Xiumei's face, which was so gloomy that ink could drip out of it, finally softened: "Humph, if you dare to have an affair with other people, I will break your legs!"
"I dare not, I dare not." Li Aiguo said with a smile.
After the two of them waited for Li Ailian to come home, Wang Xiumei told Li Ailian about her plan. Li Ailian was originally blaming Wang Xiumei for embarrassing her, but now that she was told that she could marry Ling Zhuoqun, she jumped off the kang.
"Really? Can I really marry Brother Ling?"
The couple smiled at each other. It seemed that the younger sister was quite satisfied with this marriage. "However, let's make a promise in advance. If you can't accomplish this, I'm afraid you won't be able to stay in Wanlong Village anymore."
"Didn't my sister-in-law say that there's no problem? Of course there's no problem with me." Li Ailian patted her chest and assured.
