A farmer's daughter travels through time, farming and dividing the family to fight for the best

I finally caught her with evidence, how can I let her get away with it so easily? She wants money, and when I don't give her money, she even wants to stab her with a needle. Bah, dream on.

"Grandma, you won't let me go. Are you asking me to stay for dinner?" Li Xiaoxiao said self-righteously.

"You wish. You can stay and take care of me." Old Mrs. Li suddenly thought of a good idea. If she couldn't get the money, she could just stay here and torture her.

Old man Li gave her an approving look, which made Old Mrs. Li even more proud.

"Grandma, are you sure you want me to stay and take care of you?" Li Xiaoxiao asked again uncertainly.

***

Li Xiaoxiao stayed in the old house to take care of the patient. She asked Li Daya to go back and tell her mother, and whispered a few words in her ear. Li Daya nodded repeatedly after listening.

At noon, Su cooked and the Li family ate in the main house. There was a side room connected to the main house, where Old Lady Li lived.

Su brought the prepared food to the table. Hearing the noise, Li Xiaoxiao came out and sat down in Old Lady Li's seat.

Although everyone ate at the same table at the Li family's house, the food was different. Everyone had a bowl of vegetables. Old man Li and old lady Li had several slices of meat in their bowls, while others had at most one or two slices in their bowls.

Li Xiaoxiao didn't hesitate and started eating with chopsticks.

Old man Li standing by was so angry that he blew his beard and glared: "This is your grandma's."

When Mrs. Li in the inner room heard this, she immediately yelled, "You little bitch, you have never eaten in your life. Is that yours? Just eat it."

"Grandma, you are sick now and can't eat greasy food. I am doing this for your own good." Li Xiaoxiao didn't take it seriously at all and quickly finished the bowl of meat and vegetables.

He took the bowl of vegetables without any meat prepared for her and a whole grain pancake and brought them to the table at the head of Old Lady Li's kang.

Then I found a table and fell asleep on it.

Old Mrs. Li slammed the table fiercely: "This is how you take care of the sick. You finish eating and then lie down to sleep, and you come to feed me."

Li Xiaoxiao slowly raised her head and glanced at her: "Grandma, you have so much strength to slam the table. Can't you hold two chopsticks? Do you still need me to feed you?"

This sentence left Mrs. Li speechless and she almost fainted from breath.

Seeing this bitch, Old Lady Li felt a lump in her throat. She looked at the bowl filled with wild vegetables and had no appetite at all. She took a few bites at random, pushed the bowl and chopsticks forward, and ordered, "After you finish eating, go wash the dishes."

Li Xiaoxiao walked forward, picked up the dishes and chopsticks, put them on the dining table in the main room, then turned back and continued to sleep.

She was really tired these days, busy at the new house every day. Now that she came to the old house, she had to take this opportunity to have a good rest.

"You are here to take care of me, not to sleep with me." Seeing that Li Xiaoxiao didn't listen to her, Mrs. Li started yelling again.

"I've brought you food. What else do you want? You want me to serve your entire family? Is that possible?" Li Xiaoxiao didn't even raise her head.

Originally, Old Mrs. Li was not sick, but she was almost made sick by her anger.

After dinner, Old Man Li and Old Fourth Li came to Li Xiaoxiao’s new house together. Li Quanfu and a dozen people from the village were working there.

Old man Li felt jealous when he saw so many large blue bricks. He was already old, but only the main house he lived in was made of large blue bricks. His sons all lived in adobe houses. It had only been a short time since the second son was separated from his parents, but he was able to buy so many large blue bricks. It seemed that he had built all brick houses, and there was such a big yard. The second son had finally made himself successful.

What's the point of standing him up? He is an unfilial person. After the family division, he didn't give a penny to the old house. Thinking of this, his face immediately turned gloomy.

Li Laosi had long disliked Li Xiaoxiao's family and would do his best to discredit them whenever he got the chance.

"Dad, look at this big courtyard of my second brother's. I wonder how magnificent it will be after it's completed. It's the only one of its kind in our village. It's different when you have money."

Old man Li’s face turned even darker.

As soon as Li Dahai arrived at the house with his wife and children, he saw Old Man Li and Li Laosi.

"Dad, why are you here?" Li Dahai asked in surprise.

"What? My son is building a house, but I, as his father, can't even take a look? Now that you have money, you don't even recognize your father." Old man Li came up and started scolding him.

"No, Dad, that's not what I meant." Li Dahai explained hurriedly.

"Dad, Dahai just felt that your arrival was rather sudden. He had no other intention." Sun stepped forward and explained.

"Hmph, stop talking about these nonsense. Xiaoxiao splashed water all over her grandma yesterday. You know, her grandma is seriously ill and lying in bed, all because of Xiaoxiao. Now take out ten taels of silver and let Lao Si go to the county town to invite a doctor." Old man Li got annoyed when he saw them. He didn't want to pay any more attention to them and just stated his intention directly.

Ten taels. Li Dahai was shocked. Just before they went up the mountain, Daya came to their house and brought a few words to Xiaoxiao.

She would be taking care of the patient at the old house and would be back in the evening or early tomorrow morning. If anyone from the old house went to ask them for money, she would not give it no matter who came.

It's only been a short while since his father came to ask for money. Xiaoxiao really guessed it right.

Because Li Xiaoxiao had passed on the message first, Li Dahai calmed down and spoke: "Dad, you can see that our family has just built a house and bought land, so we really can't come up with money."

"If you don't have the money, go and borrow it, or do you want to watch your mother die of illness?" He came specifically to ask for the money, and he finally took advantage of Li Xiaoxiao not being at home. When had his son become so disobedient?

When Li Daya came to deliver the message, Li Dahai asked and was told that Old Mrs. Li was fine.

"Dad, I'm not familiar with the villagers, so it's not easy to borrow money. All these things in the house were bought by Xiaoxiao alone, and she has always been in charge of the money. Why don't I wait for Xiaoxiao to come back and ask her if she still has any." Li Dahai had to think of a compromise.

"How can you be the head of the household and let her manage the money?" Old man Li got angry when he heard it.

"All our family property was earned by Xiaoxiao alone. Without her, our family would have starved to death on the streets sooner or later. Of course, she is the one who should be in charge of the family's money." Li Dahai's words made sense.

Old man Li was embarrassed for a moment, then he spoke again: "So what you mean is that because your family was separated and you complained that the things you were given were too little, you held a grudge against them, and you didn't care when your mother died of illness."

"Second brother, I have something to say to you. Our parents are so old now, and filial piety is the most important virtue. Even if there are some things that our parents do that you don't like, you can't just ignore them. Besides, this matter was caused by Li Xiaoxiao, and now we need money. If you don't say anything, does that mean it's over?" Li Laosi interrupted at the right time, and his words were all accusations against Li Dahai.

"I have never blamed my parents. I really don't have any money. If I did, would I not give it to you?"

In fact, Li Xiaoxiao had said before that she wanted to give Li Dahai some money. After all, he was the head of the family. Most men in ancient times were patriarchal and believed in men being the breadwinners outside and women being the homemakers. Without any money, she was afraid that Li Dahai would feel uncomfortable and be looked down upon by outsiders, but he refused.

He was just worried that one day the Li family would come to ask for the money, but he didn't expect that day to come so soon. The money was earned by Xiaoxiao at the risk of his life, and he couldn't give it to others casually, not even his parents.

"Second brother, aren't you afraid that our father will go to the government and sue you for being unfilial and have your entire family thrown into jail?" Li Laosi said sinisterly.
