However, even though Xiao Chunhua apologized and tried to please him, the teacher still didn't like Li Fugui.
Li Fugui was a proud person. He had always been the one who made others feel wronged. This was the first time he was treated like this. He was instantly unhappy. He simply packed his things and went home.
His family was so rich. Why did he have to go to school? He wasn't a poor person like Huang Yixiao. He didn't want to rely on the imperial examination to change his fate.
Xiao Chunhua was very anxious. She wanted to persuade Li Fugui not to be angry with the teacher and to go back to school early. However, Li Fugui was determined not to go. Xiao Chunhua tried to persuade him several times, but it was useless. She couldn't bear to scold Li Fugui. She could only agree with a dark face.
Since Li Fugui didn't go to school, marriage was naturally on the agenda.
Li Fugui was not young anymore. Back then, in order to let him concentrate on his studies, he did not marry a wife for him. Now that he did not go to school, the matter of marrying a wife and having children was naturally put on the agenda. Soon, Xiao Chunhua asked someone to find a family and quickly got engaged.
The other party's family had some assets and the girl was good-looking. However, because she was good-looking, she was more ambitious. She thought she could find a better one. However, there weren't so many good ones. She was dazzled by the selection and finally became an old lady. Although the other party was a bit old, she was also a bit old for Li Fugui. It was just right.
Although Xiao Chunhua was a bit unhappy that the girl was a bit old, the matter of her causing trouble in Jiujiu a few years ago was spread by someone. Everyone knew that Li Fugui had a shrewish mother. Although Li Fugui was beautiful, had assets, and was a scholar, the problem was that Xiao Chunhua was too shrewish.
Which family's daughter wasn't their own child? How could they watch their child jump into the fire pit for such a small amount of money? Therefore, Li Fugui's marriage was particularly difficult to discuss. In the end, he could only find such an old girl.
Because the two families were older, everything was simple and they quickly got married.
After getting married, Xiao Chunhua, who had always wanted to hold a grandson, naturally urged Li Fugui and Li Fugui to quickly have a child. However, from when Jiujiu was pregnant to when Jiujiu's child was already able to walk, Li Fugui's wife still wasn't pregnant.
A few days ago, she heard people say that Xiao Chunhua spent all day at home scolding that girl as a hen that didn't lay eggs, saying that she wanted to take a concubine for Li Fugui.
Ma Juhua and Li Qiuyue looked at Huzi and muttered, "I knew that Xiao Chunhua wasn't a good person. No matter which family's daughter married into his family, she wouldn't end up well. A few days ago, I heard from others that after marrying into the Li family, the girl was so skinny that she looked like a bag of bones. One look and you can tell that she didn't eat enough. How could she be pregnant with a child with that skinny appearance? You want the chicken to lay eggs, but you don't feed the chicken. This Xiao Chunhua is too much."
Jiujiu held Huzi and fed him. When she heard Ma Juhua tell Li Qiuyue about Li Fugui's family, she couldn't help laughing.
This Xiao Chunhua's possessiveness was particularly strong, especially when it came to Li Fugui, the child that she raised single-handedly. Her possessiveness was simply off the charts. She couldn't wait to shoot all those who had designs on Li Fugui with a machine gun.
When Chen Jiujiu married Li Fugui, she also lived a comfortable life for a period of time. However, when Li Fugui was a little tired, he was dealt with by Xiao Chunhua in various ways. Li Fugui liked Chen Jiujiu and was like this, let alone the wife that Li Fugui didn't like. It was already good that Li Fugui wasn't killed by Xiao Chunhua.
However, these things had nothing to do with her. Now that she had a child and Huang Yixiao by her side, what was there to be dissatisfied with?
Speak of the devil. Jiujiu was just talking about Huang Yixiao when Huang Yixiao pushed the door open and came in. Chen Changsheng came in with him. Both of them walked in with some prey in their hands. Because the prey was inevitably a little bloody, Ma Juhua was afraid of scaring Huzi, so when Huang Yixiao and Chen Changsheng came back, Ma Juhua carried Huzi into the room.
Huang Yixiao avoided Jiujiu's hand that came to help and said softly, "It's dirty."
Huang Yixiao walked to the edge of the water and put all the prey to one side. He skillfully skinned the prey as he said to Jiujiu and Li Qiuyue, "When autumn comes, the prey will eat their fill and their fur will be even more beautiful. At that time, I'll make cloaks for both of you."
Li Qiuyue looked at Huang Yixiao and Jiujiu's affectionate appearance and pursed her lips into a smile, "We're all old women. Why would we need a cloak? Just make one for Jiuniang. You don't have to worry about us."
"How can that be? Good things should be shared. Mother, don't refuse." Jiujiu put all the meat that Huang Yixiao had cleaned into the water. As she washed it, she discussed what to eat for dinner. At this moment, there was a commotion outside. Someone shouted, "Oh no, there's murder!"
Hearing this, Huang Yixiao hurriedly stood up and looked at Jiujiu and Li Qiuyue. He said softly, "I'll be right back."
Jiujiu nodded and stood up to help Huang Yixiao straighten the corner of his clothes. She said softly, "Be careful. We'll wait for you to come back for dinner."
"Mn." Huang Yixiao pursed his lips into a smile and got up to leave.
Chen Zhangsheng stayed in the room the whole time to clean up the prey. When Jiujiu finished cooking, Chen Zhangsheng was about to go out to find Huang Yixiao when Huang Yixiao walked in from outside.
He saw that Huang Yixiao's originally clean jacket was stained with dirt and his hair was a bit messy. He looked a bit dispirited and disheveled.
Huang Yixiao drew a basin of water to wash himself and changed into a clean set of clothes before returning to his seat.
Chen Zhangsheng and the others were a bit curious when they heard the commotion outside. Now that Huang Yixiao had returned, Chen Zhangsheng asked, "What happened just now? Why did someone die from shouting?"
Huang Yixiao drank a mouthful of water and then spoke softly.
Didn't Xiao Chunhua not treat Li Fugui's wife well?
The reason why this daughter-in-law married Li Fugui was because Li Fugui was a scholar. Moreover, she was old and her parents were worried. Seeing that Li Fugui was handsome and had a good family background, and was a scholar, they thought that he would treat their daughter well. They didn't ask too much and directly agreed.
As for Xiao Chunhua, the girl's parents wanted their daughter to spend the rest of her life with Li Fugui. They didn't take Xiao Chunhua to heart. Moreover, at the beginning, their daughter and Li Fugui were indeed lovey-dovey, so they were very relieved.
A few days ago, the old couple came to look for the girl. In the end, Xiao Chunhua stopped them in every way possible. If it was in the past, it would have been fine. However, the old couple missed the girl so much that they didn't leave that day. Instead, they stayed. Once they heard the villagers say that Xiao Chunhua tortured their daughter, the old couple immediately made a scene and wanted to see the girl.
