Chapter 94 Zhang's Golden Hairpin Disappeared

The final result was that before Mrs. Zheng exploded, Mr. Li asked his sons and grandsons to set the table for food.

"The third son's wife and Mingxia have done so much work today, and you guys are just licking your faces and waiting for food? You don't do anything?" These were Mr. Zheng's exact words, and even Li Sanlang followed suit and ran around.

When Zhang saw this, she felt a little distressed. Although Li Sanlang's leg had almost recovered and these small chores would not affect him, Zhang did not allow Li Sanlang to work at home during this period, for fear that something might happen to his leg if he did not take good care of it.

Li Mingxia stopped Zhang who wanted to help and said, "Whoever is willing to work can go. We couldn't pursue fairness before, but now that the family has been separated, can't we pursue fairness?"

Also not moving were Li Mei'e, Li Zhengxue and Li Mingxi.

Needless to say, Li Mei'e's status in the Li family is second only to Li Zhengxue. Who would dare to let her do the work?

As for Li Mingxi, he probably benefited from his elder brother's influence.

"There is enough food and wine today, everyone can eat and drink to your heart's content!" Mr. Zheng became even more excited after listening to Li Zhengxue's birthday speech.

"Master, this is my gift to you." Li Zhengxue held an opened brocade box in his hand. "This is my handwriting. The teacher once praised it."

If Mr. Li's expression had not been so solemn and joyful, and if Li Zhengxue had not looked so serious yet with a hint of subtle arrogance, Li Mingxia would really have thought that such a gift was a little too funny.

Are you a calligrapher? And Mr. Zheng doesn't even know a single Chinese character, so what's the meaning of giving such a gift? I'm afraid only Mr. Zheng and Li Zhengxue can understand the happiness in it? Anyway, Li Mingxia felt that he couldn't comprehend it.

"Eat, eat, drink, pour your drinks quickly! Everyone must have a drink today!" Li Dalang's voice was very loud. He was particularly majestic today, not because of anything else, but because his eldest son came back, and this was his pride!

Li Mingxia picked up a piece of pork for Zhang. This was a dish she made, so she felt safe eating it. "Mom, eat more fish."

All the people at the table were of the same generation as Zhang or Li Mingxia. Old Mrs. Zheng and Li Mei'e sat at the men's table, so Li Mingxia unceremoniously picked up the fish with the most meat on the belly and gave it to Zhang.

"You guys eat too." Li Mingxia picked up a piece of meat for each of Li Mingqiu, Li Mingdong and Li Zhengde, and without even looking at anyone else, he lowered his head to eat the food in his own bowl.

Jin quickly winked at the younger ones, and instantly everyone sped up their eating.

Li Mingyu had originally intended to pretend to be reserved and find fault with the two dishes made by Li Mingxia, but now he could not care about anything else and quickly added the meat, fish and other dishes to his bowl. Even Hua Shi joined in and grabbed a little for himself and his daughter.

The only one who didn't move was Li Mingxi. Her eyes were not on the food in front of her at all. From time to time, she turned around to look at Li Zhengxue who was sitting at the top, her eyes full of admiration and attachment.

Li Mingxia took a look and felt that, apart from anything else, the relationship between these two siblings was really good.

Originally, I was planning to leave after dinner, but unexpectedly, after Zhang changed her clothes and came out, her face became very ugly. She hurriedly walked to Li Mingxia.

"Mingxia! Mingxia!"

"Don't be anxious, Mom. What's wrong? Tell me slowly." Li Mingxia held Zhang Qi's hand and found that her fingertips were cold, so she quickly spoke softly.

Zhang's eyes turned red, "The hairpin you bought for me is gone!"

Li Mingxia frowned. Zhang treasured that red gold hairpin very much. If she hadn't given it to Li Sanlang today, she would not feel at ease no matter who it was given to. How could it suddenly disappear?

"What did my father say?" Li Mingxia asked.

"He's still looking!"

Li Mingxia glanced at Old Lady Zheng who was sitting on the kang and talking to Li Mei'e. Zhang's voice was so loud when she came out just now, there was no reason why Old Lady Zheng couldn't hear it. The hairpin would not grow legs and run away by itself. It was obvious that someone in this room did it.

Sure enough, not long after, Li Sanlang, also sweating profusely, ran out with nothing in his hands.

Li Mingxia sneered, looking at Zhang who was about to cry, he raised his voice and said loudly: "Master, my mother's gold hairpin is missing here."

As Li Mingxia expected, Mrs. Zheng, who had just pretended to hear and see nothing, suddenly became alert and clear-eyed.

"What gold hairpin! Your mother didn't wear any hairpin when she came here today! Your father kept all the things. If you don't believe me, just ask your father what he meant by lost here. Third brother, say something quickly! Did your wife wear any gold hairpin when she came here today?" Old Mrs. Zheng pointed at Li Sanlang and cursed loudly, like a wronged person.

But Li Mingxia did not say that she was the one who took the hairpin. This kind of noise would only make people think that she was guilty.

"Mom, the child's mother was wearing a hairpin when she came." Li Sanlang opened his mouth and finally said something that made Li Mingxia satisfied.

"You mean I lied? How dare you, in heaven's name, accuse me of this? Third brother, do you have any conscience? You've married a wife and forgotten your mother! You're going to force me to death!"

Li Mingxia had no idea what the connection was between Zhang's lost gold hairpin and whether Li Sanlang had forgotten his mother after getting married, but her reaction and her intention to force Li Sanlang to admit that Zhang did not wear the hairpin were something that even a fool could understand.

Li Sanlang was unable to respond. He didn't understand why this happened. Zhang had definitely come wearing a gold hairpin today, and they had had an argument on the way just because of this hairpin. How could he have remembered it wrong?

"Grandma, everyone knows whether my mother wore the hairpin or not. If you insist that my mother didn't bring the hairpin, then let's report to the police." Li Mingxia didn't want to argue with her at all and said directly.

"Brother, go and report to the police. Our mother's hairpin is made of gold, which is worth nearly twenty taels of silver. Anyone who steals this hairpin will be beaten with a hundred sticks. I wonder if he will tell the truth!"

Li Mingxia's words were not bluffing. The punishment for theft here was extremely severe. If you were caught and couldn't afford to pay compensation, the punishment would be doubled. No one would not be afraid.

"Okay, I'll go now!" Li Zhengpin stood up quickly and said loudly!
