Just one pregnancy and four babies, but the prince actually pledged his love to her
Chapter 45: The truth behind my daughter's disappearance
In order to make things difficult for Li, Old Lady Li said some vicious words: "The little girl has long been not innocent. It is a blessing for a person like her to serve in the home of Landlord Huang. You should thank me for finding such a good place for your daughter."
"After all, you know that little Hoof has no reputation in the village and it is impossible for her to get married. Now someone wants her, you, as a mother, shouldn't be thankful."
"Okay, hurry up and clean the pigsty first, then wash my and your father's clothes."
Mrs. Li ignored the old lady's nagging. She only knew that her daughter was sold to the landlord Huang's house.
She wanted to save her daughter, but the shock was too great. She finally stood up, staggered and took only two steps before she fainted on the ground.
It happened that the twins came back from collecting grass for pigs and saw their mother lying on the ground. Their father was struggling to climb out of the room. Without even having time to take off the backpack on his back, he quickly ran to their mother's side.
"Mom, what's wrong with you? Who got the wound on your face?" When Minghao saw the wound on his mother's face, tears suddenly flowed down his face.
Mingyu was also worried about his mother, but he didn't cry first. Instead, he saw Old Mrs. Li walking towards the room.
"Grandma, are you the one who caused the injuries on my mother's body?"
When Mrs. Li saw the twins come back, she rarely scolded them. Instead, she wanted to go back to her room with a guilty conscience.
After all, seeing how devastated Li seemed, I wonder if he could survive.
If she went for this reason, no matter whether it had anything to do with her or not, she would be criticized as long as she was there.
But before she could reach the room, Mingyu called her.
"What nonsense are you talking about, you little bastard? Your mother was worried about your sister and beat her up herself. What does this have to do with me? If you keep talking nonsense, get out of here. Your family is all eating for free, how dare you blame me?"
Mingyu knew that no matter how he was beaten or scolded, with his small arms and legs, he was no match for Old Lady Li.
He had to take care of his mother temporarily, but what Mingyu didn't expect was that he could control himself but ignored his younger brother.
Minghao was crying sadly, but when he heard the conversation between his brother and grandmother, he got up from his mother and rushed to Old Lady Li like a little cannonball.
It's just that his strength was too weak. Not only did he knock Old Lady Li down, he also fell on his butt.
Minghao's collision made Old Mrs. Li so angry that she fell backwards.
Originally, she got fifty taels of silver from selling Li Mengyue, which gave her son money to continue his studies and also saved the dozen taels of silver in the family. She no longer thought of selling the twins.
No matter what, the twins are the old man's grandsons. When there is no other way, he has to sell the twins to raise money for his son. Given the old man's determination to have his son become an official and bring honor to the family, he will naturally not say anything.
Now that she has money for her son's education, if she proposes to sell the twins again, I believe the old man will definitely not agree.
But now the twins actually dared to attack her, especially the look in Mingyu's eyes when he looked at her, which was gloomy and fierce, and it was not like the expression of a six-year-old child at all.
It seems that the twins can't be kept, otherwise something bad will happen sooner or later.
After all, she really couldn't stand the fact that there were people in her family who wanted to harm her all the time.
So she wanted to go out and find the matchmaker from last time. You know, the matchmaker was very satisfied with the twins and was willing to pay a high price.
She said the twins were good-looking. She had been doing this for many years and had seen many good-looking boys, but she had never seen twins like these.
Mingyu, the twin, has a pair of dark eyes and long, thick eyelashes that crisscross like a small fan. The long eyelashes are gently attached to the pupils, as if revealing a stubborn personality. He is thin and looks a little overwhelmed.
Minghao has thick black hair, lips of moderate thickness, and slender peach blossom eyes, full of passion and a pretty jaw, and he doesn't look like a woman with makeup on.
In fact, Old Lady Li also knew how good the twins were. Not to mention their beautiful little hooves, they were also very innocent. All the eligible young men in the surrounding villages wanted to marry them. Landlord Huang was willing to pay fifty taels of silver. Even Li Mingfei, who had disappeared, was tall and strong.
Every time I see her grandson Li Chengxuan and granddaughter Li Jiajia, I can't help but feel jealous.
Now that the little one has arrived at Landlord Huang’s house, it is unknown how many years he can live, and the twins have to be sold, so they can’t be allowed to stay at home.
After making up her mind to sell the twins, Mrs. Li turned around and was about to walk out the door.
Minghao knew that it was his grandmother who beat his mother so badly, so he grabbed Grandma Li's hand and bit it.
Old Mrs. Li didn't expect that the little brat whom she had always ignored would actually show his "fangs". This led to the scene where Li Mengyue came in and saw Minghao almost being thrown down.
Li Mengyue coaxed Minghao and quickly ran to her mother. She saw the wound on her mother's face and the blood oozing from her father's leg again.
He hurriedly took out the silver needle from the space and inserted the needle with both hands at the same time, treating his mother while stopping the bleeding for his father.
After a while, under Li Mengyue's superb medical skills, Mrs. Li slowly opened her eyes. When she saw her daughter, she thought she was dreaming.
She rubbed her eyes with her hands and pinched her husband.
"Hiss, it hurts."
Seeing her husband grimacing in pain, she finally believed that her daughter had returned. With red eyes, she said excitedly, "Yueyue, are you okay?"
"Don't worry, mother. My daughter is fine."
Hearing her daughter say that everything was fine, Li's heart finally settled down. She wiped her tears and said, "It's good that everything is fine. It's good that everything is fine. If you... Mother doesn't want to live anymore."
Li Mengyue pulled out the golden needle from her father's body, put it away and put it into the space, then hugged her mother.
When Mrs. Li smelled her daughter's scent, her panicked heart finally calmed down, and she was in the mood to ask her daughter where she had been.
Li Mengyue did not intend to hide it. She told the truth that Old Lady Li and Li Jian had put drugs in her room at night, and then she sold herself to the landlord Huang for fifty taels of silver to become his eighteenth concubine.
If it weren't for her own strong abilities, she might not have been able to come back.
When Mrs. Li heard that her daughter almost couldn't come back, she turned pale with fear and looked at Li An: "Husband, did you hear that? My daughter almost couldn't come back."
Then he said firmly, "I want to separate the family. If I stay in this courtyard, I'm afraid that one day I'll wake up and encounter something like this again. If you don't agree, then we can divorce. Both my son and daughter will be with me."
Ever since his daughter went missing, Li An has been blaming himself, and feeling disgusted with himself for being incompetent and unable to protect his wife and children.
Now that he knows the truth about his daughter's disappearance, he feels resentment towards his stepmother and brother.
You know, when he broke his leg, his stepmother refused to take the money, saying that she would leave it for his third brother's studies, but he didn't feel resentful. When his wife was sick, she didn't take the money either, he was just angry.
But for the sake of the third son's studies, the family ignored him and Wan Niang, and even the two younger sons had to work from dawn to dusk.
After paying so much, what did he get? His daughter was sold, his two sons were almost sold, and his wife was beaten.
He began to doubt what his father said, that once the third son passed the imperial examination and became an official, their family would be able to live a good life.
At the moment, he is not sure whether he can live a good life. He only knows that if he continues like this, his wife and children will be separated.
Especially when he heard his wife talking about divorce, he immediately became anxious: "Wan Niang, you can beat me and scold me, but don't ever talk about divorce again. Without you, what's the point of me living alone."
"If you don't want to divorce, you have to separate the family." Li said it firmly, leaving no possibility of turning back.
"Okay, let's split up."
Ang Lee looked at his wife, daughter and two sons. Although he had never thought about dividing the family before, he was very determined at this moment.
