Good luck every time

Chapter 207 Li Er's Trouble

After listening to this, Li Ershi felt complicated and uncomfortable.

Li Ruyi answered his question, but more mysteries followed that confused him.

He wanted to ask something, but couldn't find the answer for a moment.

Li Ruyi stretched his arms and legs and did the usual preparatory movements before practicing.

She had drunk some wine and now felt her blood boiling.

"Run for a bit! Some troubles will disappear if you run!"

Li Er's attention was drawn back to her. He watched her rush out, running so fast.

"Hey...wait for me! I have something else to ask you!"

Li Ruyi ignored him. She hadn't run for a long time. The feeling of running made her feel relaxed both physically and mentally.

The two of them ran and soon returned to Sanjia Village.

Li Er followed Li Ruyi back and found Li Shiwu there too. He was gathering the wood and splitting it into pieces of appropriate sizes.

As soon as he saw the two people coming back, he hurriedly said.

"There's nothing wrong at home, I came here to help. Don't give me money today, or I'll get mad!"

Li Ruyi's face turned red from running and she showed a bright smile.

Having just witnessed the evil of human nature, I feel particularly happy when I see the kindness of others.

"I won't be polite when this bargain is delivered to my doorstep!"

Seeing her like this, Li Shiwu also started to laugh foolishly.

Only Li Ershi stood aside with a frown on his face, unable to understand all the trouble.

The aunties in the room were mending things while praising Li Ruyi for her ability to take care of things.

The three people outside the house worked hard until the evening.

The eldest sister was able to control everyone's food intake, and no one left anything.

After everyone left, the eldest sister took the cotton jacket with the bottom hem of the cuffs unsewed to let Grandma Ding try it on.

The cotton jacket was very long, with a double-breasted collar and a rounded hem, reaching down to Grandma Ding’s thighs.

Granny Ding remained calm as always, except that her hand, which was touching her cotton-padded jacket, was trembling slightly.

She coughed lightly and said lightly.

"This cotton jacket is too thick. It's not convenient for me to walk in it."

Li Ruyi complained in his heart, Master, except for watching us practice in the morning, you never get off the kang at other times. It's not good for your health!

The eldest sister saw Li Ruyi's expression, glared at her, then turned around and spoke to Grandma Ding.

"Grandma, this cotton-padded jacket is for wearing outside. I will make you a short padded jacket for wearing inside when the time comes!"

Granny Ding was speechless.

Li Ruyi gave her elder sister a thumbs up, but was glared at by her again.

Granny Ding coughed again and turned her head slightly towards Li Ruyi.

"Don't play tricks on me. I don't know what you're thinking!"

Li Ruyi plays the victim.

"Master! I am praising my elder sister's craftsmanship! This cotton-padded jacket will look very decent on you! When the time comes, I will buy you a piece of rabbit fur, gray rabbit fur, and make you a big fur collar!"

"I'll use the remaining cloth to make a thick headband for you. Put it on your head..."

Granny Ding raised her leg and kicked Li Ruyi.

"You little brat! Even your master is making fun of you! Buy me my herbs as soon as possible!"

Li Ruyi tried to dodge but failed. He was kicked neither lightly nor heavily and ran away in fear.

The third child also followed her example, and circled around Grandma Ding, crying loudly.

"Master, Master! It looks great! It looks great! I want a big grey rabbit fur collar and a big buttoned collar!"

Granny Ding: ...

She felt that she might not have the talent to teach apprentices, otherwise why were both of her apprentices so annoying!

Li Ruyi is very happy.

But some people are very worried.

Li Er walked home with his sleeves rolled up. Li Shiwu's clothes were tattered, but they were winter clothes. Li Er's clothes were quite decent, but they were still padded clothes.

However, there was no need for him to complain, because Li Ruyi was wearing the same clothes as him and was not deliberately making things difficult for him. Besides, the cotton had already been bought, so it was just a matter of waiting a few more days.

He looked at the stars in the sky and subconsciously thought of what Li Ruyi had said.

He asked Li Shiwu.

"Brother, if someone wanted to sell you out... or kill you, would you still want to eat at the same table with that person?"

After hearing this, Li Shiwu turned around and looked at Li Er in a daze.

"Why do you ask? I have no money and no wife, why are you killing me?"

Li Er: ...

"No, just if! If, if there is someone who wants to kill you now and you already know it, can you still eat at the same table with him?"

Li Shiwu frowned, stretched out his hand and scratched his scalp loudly, and finally said.

"No way! What if he poisoned me? He would kill me."

Li Er breathed a sigh of relief.

"Right! People shouldn't eat with someone who wants to kill them, right!"

Li Shiwu nodded.

"Correct!"

Li Er got the answer he wanted, but strangely, he was not happy at all.

The ease he had just felt slowly dissipated as he walked in the darkness.

He asked Li Shiwu again without giving up.

"Brother, why do you want to have dinner with someone who wants to kill you?"

"No, no, you can't kill this person, and he can't kill you for the time being..."

When Li Erji said this, he also scratched his scalp like Li Shiwu.

He couldn't describe the feeling, it was strange and terrible.

Li Shiwu didn't understand either.

"Li Ershi, have you run into trouble? Why don't I understand what you are saying? I think Ruyi is very smart. If you have any questions that you can't figure out, you can ask Ruyi. She will definitely be able to explain it to you."

Li Er: ...

He asked Li Shiwu because he couldn't figure out what was going on with Li Ruyi!

But it was obvious that his asking would yield no results.

He waved his hand and didn't want to talk anymore, feeling very tired.

It's more tiring than climbing a mountain for two hours carrying 50 kilograms of salt without a drop of water.

Compared to when he didn't have a donkey, he was exhausted even after dragging a cart weighing three or four hundred kilograms for a mile.

"never mind!"

Li Shiwu nodded, completely free of his worries. He patted his belly and sighed.

"Do you think I am a big spender? Otherwise, I have nothing to do at home, so I went to Ruyi's house to do some work and ate two or three meals. I ate so much that my belly is bulging!"

Li Er was upset.

"It's okay, she has money!"

She can spend 200 coins to treat guests, so what's wrong with the workers having two full meals? It's not like they cut corners and didn't work hard!

Li Shiwu heard the anger in Li Er's tone and patted Li Er on the shoulder.

"Don't say that about Ruyi. It's not easy for a girl like her to support such a big family business! She has nothing to say to us!"

Li Er felt upset and didn't say a word.

Li Shiwu was suddenly panicked.

"Did Ruyi bully you? Then how about I not go to her house to work anymore?"

Li Er: ...

Omg!

Even more angry!

He walked quickly with a gloomy face, but after a moment he managed to squeeze out a word.

"No need! Why wouldn't you want to have enough food? If there's work, go. If there's no work, just take it. It can also save some food for the family."

Li Shiwu breathed a sigh of relief. It seemed that Li Ruyi was not bullying him.

He just said it!
