Chapter 9073 playing hard to get
"Li Lizheng, as an adult and the head of a village, is this the ability you have shown?"
Yang Ruoqing picked up the tea bowl in front of her, blew the foam from her mouth, and glanced coldly at Li Jia in front of her.
Li Jia was startled for a moment, and the hot sweat on his forehead instantly dried up and turned into cold sweat.
"Indeed, these village jokes alone cannot be used as evidence." Li Jia said hesitantly.
"What, Qing'er, something happened suddenly, please give me a few more days of grace!"
Yang Ruoqing narrowed her eyes slightly.
"come here!"
Li Jia was stunned for a moment, then cautiously approached Yang Ruoqing.
Yang Ruoqing whispered a few words.
Li Jia was shocked and looked at her with wide eyes.
"Qing'er, did I hear it wrong? What do you mean?"
"Yes, you heard me right, that's what I meant."
Li Jia's face was full of confusion, "Why do you do that? If that happens, wouldn't all our efforts this day be in vain?"
Yang Ruoqing smiled coldly, her eyes full of ridicule.
"Li Lizheng is teaching me how to do things?"
"Don't dare, don't dare, I, I'll make arrangements right away."
Yang Ruoqing stopped him again: "You can make arrangements, but I don't want a third person to know what I just told you."
"No matter who it is! Please remember it well."
Li Jia looked straight at Yang Ruoqing's eyes that seemed to be joking, but did not hide the murderous intent, and his whole body became stiff.
Originally, he had thought of going back to his brother Li Yi, his nephew Li Wei, and his mother-in-law to discuss and ponder the meaning of Yang Ruoqing's temporary decision behind closed doors.
But now Yang Ruoqing's warning, as well as her murderous eyes, instantly stopped Li Jia from thinking about anything.
So, back to Lijia Village, when Li Yi, who was waiting at the entrance of the village, saw his brother coming back and immediately came up to ask about the situation, Li Jia just waved his hands and didn't want to say anything.
Having said that, there is no airtight wall in this world. If Yang Ruoqing finds out later, this matter will be difficult to handle.
After chatting with Li Yi with a few irrelevant gossips, Li Jia turned around and headed towards Shanyuan.
He found the men who were looking after the garden, called them into a room, and gave them some instructions before walking back home with heavy steps.
The mother-in-law at home was also waiting anxiously. Seeing that he came back from Changping Village intact, she also breathed a sigh of relief.
"I thought Yang Ruoqing was going to make things difficult for you. My eyelids were twitching so much earlier, but you finally came back safe and sound."
Li Jia could only smile bitterly at this.
I came back safe and sound this time, but what about the next time?
Although he knew that Yang Ruoqing couldn't kill him directly for this matter, or something like that.
But if this matter was not handled well, Yang Ruoqing would be completely offended.
If I'm doing this right here, I guess I'm about to reach the end.
In the past few years as Li Zheng, I have often relied on my authority to dominate Lijia Village.
Taking advantage of all kinds of deductions, accepting tribute from people in the village, and relying on favors and gifts to resolve disputes...
As long as he doesn't take the rightful place here and gets into trouble with those in Changping Village, those who have offended him before will probably fight back, and then life in Lijia Village will be very difficult.
"Well, please do something for me." Li Jia took off his coat and told his mother-in-law.
"What's the matter?" asked the mother-in-law.
"In the past few days, you have to pay more attention to Fatty Sister-in-law and her two gentlemen, both covertly and covertly. If you catch the slightest clue, we can deal with Qing'er."
"What? You go over and tell her the clues now, but she doesn't believe you?"
"Those are the things that villagers talk about when they are bored. Can this be used as evidence to convince her? It's just a joke!" Li Jia said.
The mother-in-law sighed and said, "Anyway, people in the village have been talking about this for a long time. Now that the incident in Shanyuan has happened, everyone is guessing behind the scenes that it was Erjun who did it."
"It just so happened that Erjun's mother-in-law, fat sister-in-law, went to Shanyuan to take care of her at night. She probably took her son with her."
"Why don't you believe this? You need ironclad proof? We can't just catch you sleeping with those cowards, right? That's too difficult. It would take a bowl of tea, or even faster, how could we have time...
…”
His mother-in-law's nagging made Li Jia even more irritable.
Because he thought of himself.
In the early years, I could still hold on to the strength of a bowl of tea, but in the past two years, I can no longer lift myself up, let alone a bowl of tea. Hey!
"Okay, okay, hurry up and ask around, don't talk nonsense to me! I didn't get a wink last night, I need to get some sleep first!"
On the other hand, Yang Ruoqing withdrew Yang Huaming and sent Liu to Lijiacun to inquire about various gossips.
Facts have proved that Liu's efficiency in this area is really better than Yang Huaming's.
Although Yang Huaming knew many people in Lijiacun, so what? When it came to really asking about gossip, Mr. Liu fully demonstrated his proficiency in business.
In just half a day, Mrs. Liu came to the Luo family to ask Yang Ruoqing to report the matter.
"Qing'er, I know everything about the situation of the fat sister-in-law's family in Lijiacun."
After Mrs. Liu sat down, she reached out to grab the teapot on the table and poured some tea.
Yang Ruoqing didn't stop her. When she arrived at the Luo family, especially in the bedroom in the Luo family's backyard, Mrs. Liu felt quite at home.
Not only did she not stop her, Yang Ruoqing even got up and brought Liu a plate of her favorite melon seeds and put it in front of her, letting her talk about things while eating the melon seeds. The things she said in this way had more soul.
Sure enough, Mrs. Liu drank tea and saw the caramelized melon seeds again, and was very happy.
She grabbed a handful and peeled it off under her fingernails until it made a crisp crackling sound. Without waiting for Yang Ruoqing to ask, she continued to talk to herself.
"This fat sister-in-law is also a hard-working woman. She is about the same age as me. Her natal family is in Wanghai County, which is far away."
"After marrying to Lijiacun, the man worked as a noodle maker and gave birth to two sons."
"The eldest son is called Dajun, and the second son is called Erjun. I heard that her life was prosperous when her husband was alive. Later, when the man died, the family went downhill."
"But the younger son, Erjun, was born a fool. He came home from playing outside when he was ten years old, and he still wants to pick up Nai. He is a young man of sixteen or seventeen years old. He has all the things, and he still wants his mother to give him.
Take a bath and feed yourself.”
"The fat sister-in-law raised her two sons, married the king's wife, and started a family."
"It turns out that as soon as the eldest couple got married, they separated Fat Wife and Erjun to live separately. Dajun's family gave birth to several children, and life was not easy. Naturally, they didn't take care of Fat Wife and Erjun at all."
"This fat sister-in-law drags the second gentleman to live in the old house. Now the second gentleman is almost thirty years old and is about the same age as my He'er. There are no girls in a hundred houses who are willing to marry him."
