Dress up as a farm girl and make a lot of money with space

Chapter 898: The "Tenderness" that Devours Flesh and Bones

Looking at Li Sanlang's eyes that seemed to understand but not quite, Mr. Li was a little unsure about what to do.

Will insisting on the twenty taels of silver make the third brother unhappy?

If the third brother could speak out, this matter would not be difficult to deal with. I am just afraid that the third brother will not say anything, so this matter will be kept in his heart.

"Forget it, third brother. Dad just thought about it. Zhengzhi is getting married and Zhengde still has to go to school. Money is needed everywhere. Don't give twenty taels of silver. How about ten taels. If there is anything short of it, dad will help you make up for it. If there is no extra, dad can still give you ten or eight taels." Before Li Sanlang could speak, Grandpa Li quickly changed his tone and said to Li Sanlang with a smile.

He even looked at Li Sanlang's expression while speaking, trying to figure out what his son was thinking.

In fact, if Mr. Li had asked for ten taels of silver at the beginning and said these words, Li Sanlang would have believed it without a doubt and would have stood firmly on Mr. Li's side and helped to persuade Li Mingxia, Zhang and others.

But now, after experiencing the impact of the "milk money" and fifty taels of silver, Li Sanlang couldn't take what Mr. Li said to heart at all.

"Dad, I know you are good to Zhengzhi. You value our Zhengzhi, and I am happy about that." Li Sanlang lowered his head slowly. No one could see his expression clearly.

Old Master Li smiled with satisfaction. Yes, the third brother is easy to talk to.

As long as the third brother is easy to talk to, nothing else will be a problem.

Thinking of this, Mr. Li suddenly felt a little proud.

Who can say that they don’t know how to take care of their children? The second and third children are the most successful examples.

As for the eldest brother, Mr. Li's evaluation was that it was all about fate and timing. If the eldest brother had a little better luck and more opportunities, his family would definitely be able to make a name for themselves. There was no need to talk about those things now.

"It's enough for you to understand dad's heart. As parents, how can you not consider your sons and grandchildren? Third brother, you are the only one who understands dad to some extent. Alas." Old Master Li sighed, and when he looked at Li Sanlang, there was satisfaction in his eyes, and a hint of dissatisfaction that he himself might not have noticed.

And this dissatisfaction was so obvious in Li Mingxia's eyes that it was a bit irritating.

Mr. Li's satisfaction with Li Sanlang came from the fact that he felt Li Sanlang was obedient enough at the moment.

As for dissatisfaction, that’s easier to say.

He felt that Li Sanlang was actually not worthy of such a life, including Li Zhengde. Even though everyone told him that Li Zhengde had become successful, even the teacher in the school praised Li Zhengde highly.

But Mr. Li still felt that Li Zhengde was not destined to study.

Many times when Mr. Li woke up in the middle of the night, he couldn't sleep and was thinking about this matter in his mind.

If the third brother's family had not been separated, the one who would continue to study in the school now would definitely be Li Zhengxue, his most proud grandson.

Even if conditions permitted and Li Zhengde was sent there to study, Li Zhengxue would definitely be put first in everything.

But it's too late to say anything now. The third brother's family has been separated, and his most proud grandson can only stay at home feeling depressed every day.

However, Li Zhengde, a scholar who changed his career path to become a scholar, went to school all day and was praised by everyone.

Old Master Li didn't think that everyone's praise was really because Li Zhengde had done so well in his studies. He just thought that people were fawning on the powerful and looking down on the weak. Because Li Mingxia could make money now and the third brother's family was living a better life, everyone started to curry favor with him. Even if Li Zhengde didn't do well in his studies, no one would say anything bad about him.

And Li Zhengxue, his poor grandson, was hindered by his family's conditions.

If Li Zhengxue is now in the third brother's house, is the third brother's son, and is Li Mingxia's younger brother, then is everything different?

But this is impossible.

When Mr. Li thought of this, he glanced at Li Sanlang. Li Zhengxue was a pure member of the Li family. Li Sanlang didn't even know who his parents were or what their surnames were. How could Li Zhengxue be his son?

"I don't know what's in my father's heart, and I don't understand him." Li Sanlang still kept his head down, his voice muffled.

Zhang looked at Li Sanlang with a complicated look in her eyes. After a while, she sighed softly.

Others couldn't hear it, but how could she, who had spent half her life with Li Sanlang, not hear it?

This is crying and sad.

If it were in the past, to be honest, Zhang would definitely feel very uncomfortable, thinking that her husband had been so pitiful all his life, and was still bullied by his own parents at such an old age.

But after so many times, Zhang should get used to it no matter how uncomfortable she feels.

It’s not that I’m used to Mr. Li and Mrs. Zheng’s behavior, but that I’m used to Li Sanlang’s short memory.

No matter how others treated him, no matter how excessive, even if he felt discouraged and didn't want to care about anything at the time, as long as Mr. Li and Mrs. Zheng gave him some more sweet talk, Li Sanlang would forget everything.

So even though Zhang felt a little sad and uncomfortable seeing Li Sanlang like this, when she thought that all this was Li Sanlang's own fault, Zhang suddenly felt a little disappointed.

How could someone be so forgetful?

"Third brother, Dad knows you are a good boy. You don't have to be so humble. How could I not know anything?" Old Master Li patted Li Sanlang's shoulder, thought for a while, then reached out and stroked Li Sanlang's head soothingly.

The elderly father gently strokes his middle-aged son. If Li Mingxia saw this scene happening to someone else, she would probably be moved.

Now I just find it ridiculous, even a little weird.

However, no matter how funny it was, seeing that his honest father's body was shaking a little, he knew that Mr. Li's conciliatory policy was very effective for his honest father.

It doesn’t matter. Anyway, Li Mingxia has no intention of letting the people in the Li family’s old house take even the slightest advantage today.

"Dad, I'm not being modest. I'm just a country bumpkin. How can I know what is modest and what is not? I know you're doing this for my own good, but I really can't accomplish anything, and I don't understand all the twists and turns involved. My son is just like me, not someone who will achieve anything great. The daughter-in-law I marry won't be the one who has a lot of trouble, so we can just stay at home and do the housework." Li Sanlang's voice was heavy, and he seemed to be in a bad mood.

Old Master Li also heard it and frowned slightly. There were already a lot of things to do today. He took great pains and effort to finally get this thing done, but unfortunately he only had ten taels of silver.
