Seeing Li Xi acting like he was the boss, second only to the earth, and she was the third, Feng San and Gao Liang were a little hesitant.
Could it be that there is something behind her that they don't know about?
Looking at Li Xi's disdainful eyes and tough aura, they felt a little unsure. Could it be that they were hitting a wall?
The little people at the bottom are the best at judging the situation. Seeing this, Feng San rolled his eyes and said with a smile, "Miss Li has misunderstood."
He tugged at his official uniform and said, "We are small fry who also follow orders. We do whatever the higher-ups say."
Li Xi naturally wouldn't believe it. If that was the case, how could they still be here to deal with him? They would have taken him back to claim the reward long ago. The more they said that, the more it proved that today's scene was directed and acted by them.
However, Li Xi did not expose them. After all, now was not the time to fall out.
Li Xi snorted coldly, "In this case, I have to apologize to you two."
"Miss Li, what are you talking about? We brothers don't think you are a criminal. Maybe the order from above was conveyed incorrectly, or maybe we brothers misunderstood." Feng San had a flattering expression.
Li Xi glanced at the knife in his hand and asked, "Did you send the wrong message? Did you mishear it?"
Li Xi refused to give in, but Feng San and Gao Liang felt more and more that she must have someone behind her. It made sense. If she didn't have someone behind her, how could she move from the countryside to the city and send her brother to a private school? That would be fine, but she did nothing but had so much money. It was not right to think about it.
Feng San cursed in his heart, why didn't you tell me earlier that you had a backer? You kept a low profile, otherwise how could they have come running after you head-on?
Seeing this, Feng San kicked Gao Liang who was standing beside him and said, "Put away your broken knife quickly and don't offend Miss Li."
After that, he smiled at Li Xi flatteringly and said, "Miss Li, you are a magnanimous person. Don't bother with us. After all, we are also working for the higher-ups."
Feeling that it was enough, Li Xi did not continue to embarrass them, and said with disgust, "I'll let you go this time, don't let me see you again, get out of here!"
"Yes, yes, let's get out of here right now, right now!"
After Feng San finished speaking, he and Gao Liang left together.
Li Xi didn't even look at them. He unlocked the door, pushed it open, entered the yard, and closed the door again.
After closing the door, Li Xi silently carried the backpack into the pharmacy, sorted the herbs she had just bought, and put them one by one into the small drawers of the medicine cabinet.
After all the herbs were put in place, Li Xi's thoughts became much clearer.
The king of hell is easy to mess with, but the little devil is difficult to deal with.
She had fooled the two troublemakers away today, but she could never be sure if they would come back again at any time. She had to think of a way to deal with them before that.
There is also the young master of the county lieutenant's family as they mentioned, and this matter also needs to be investigated thoroughly.
She already had an idea about the former, and would ask Hu Zi about the latter when she came back.
Li Xi's thoughts were clear now, but Feng San and Gao Liang, who were leaving the alley, looked very ugly.
I originally thought that this action would not only allow me to show off in front of the county lieutenant, but also allow me to make some extra money. However, in the end, I returned empty-handed and my efforts were in vain.
Feng San cursed, "What a thing, relying on the people behind him, he dares to look down on us. Sooner or later, I will let him know how powerful I, Feng San, am."
"You just know how to brag. If you have the ability, go now!" Gao Liang scratched his head and spat.
Feng San choked, glared at him, and said unhappily, "Who are you on the same side with?"
"I don't think you're any good. You're scared like this by a little girl. No wonder people call you a coward."
"Damn it, you're so good, why don't you come up? Now you're talking about me, why didn't you say anything just now?"
"It's as if you weren't the one who put away the knife. You just rushed forward with the knife in your hand, and you still have the nerve to call me a coward."
Feng San was very angry. What he hated the most was being called a coward.
Feng San and Gao Liang had an argument and neither of them wanted to talk to each other, so they left the alley, one turning left and the other turning right.
"Damn it, I'm so fucking unlucky..." Feng San walked on the road cursing.
"...Didn't they say Daya brought Huzi into the city? I don't know where they live." Aunt Ma looked at the people passing by, thinking that maybe she could see that crazy girl.
Ever since being chased and hacked by Li Xi, Aunt Ma has been hiding at home and dared not come out, for fear of running into that crazy girl again. After hearing that she had left Lijiazhuang and moved to Chengli.
She was relieved but also extremely jealous. The siblings' father had died and their mother had remarried, so they should have the worst life in the village. How come they suddenly moved to the city?
In the eyes of the villagers, moving to the city means living a good life. Aunt Ma hates Li Xi so much that her teeth are itching, so how could she possibly hope that she would live a good life.
But obviously things will not change according to her will, and she can only be forced to accept the reality that Li Xi lives a better life than her.
"What does where they live have to do with you? It's not easy for the two siblings to depend on each other. You don't want to tell Mrs. Li where they live, do you?" Dong Fengxia looked at her suspiciously.
"What are you talking about? I am not that kind of person!"
Dong Fengxia didn't say anything, she just looked at her, but her eyes clearly said, what do you think.
Aunt Ma: "..."
Well, that's what she thought.
"Ma Laoer's family, everyone in the village knows that you are full of bad intentions. When I see you like this, I know you are up to no good. I warn you, Daya's father and our Changqing are sworn brothers.
If you cause trouble for Daya and the others, you are causing trouble for our family, so you should think carefully about it!" Dong Fengxia said, and left quickly without waiting for her to react.
If she hadn't met him, she really wouldn't want to bother with Ma Laoer's family. They did nothing good every day and only did things that hurt others and themselves.
Dong Fengxia came to the city today specifically to find Li Xi. She knew the address of Li Xi's home, but didn't know how to get there, so she could only ask as she walked.
After a while, I asked someone who knew the answer.
"Xinzhang Hutong, surnamed Li, brother and sister?"
"Yes, Auntie, do you know him?" Dong Fengxia's eyes lit up. Although she was the wife of the village chief, she was at a loss when she entered the city.
"I know you, I know you. What a coincidence! I'm from that alley too. Come on, I'll take you there." The person who spoke was Wang Dahua's mother-in-law, Zhou. Everyone who knew her called her Mother-in-law Zhou.
This Zhou Po is a person who likes to watch the fun on weekdays. She was the first to rush to the front when the He family made trouble before. Today she went to visit a girl's house in the east of the city and left early, so she didn't know that a lively thing happened in the alley today.
"Thank you, Auntie. You are such a caring person." Dong Fengxia didn't expect to find it so quickly.
"Well," Mrs. Zhou laughed heartily, "I usually like to do things to help others, do good deeds and accumulate virtue, so that I can be reborn into a good family in the next life."
"I haven't asked yet, where are you from and what is your relationship with the brother and sister." Mrs. Zhou smiled and took Dong Fengxia to the alley.
"I'm from Lijiazhuang. I'm Daya's aunt. Her brother and sister are living in the city. My husband is worried about them, so he asked me to come and take a look." Dong Fengxia said with a sigh.
“Oh, it’s not easy.
But don't worry, the big one is a successful man and won't stand being bullied."
It's not that she can't stand being bullied, it's that she can't stand being bullied a little bit, and she will really chop with a knife.
But she didn't say any of this. She was not stupid. Who would want to listen to others talking about their own children?
"You are right, Auntie. If it weren't for this, we wouldn't be at ease with her bringing her brother to the city."
"That's right. After all, the younger one is still young, and the older one is just a half-grown child. It's not something to worry about. By the way, where are their family members? Why don't they come with them?"
She had wanted to find out about this for a long time, but no one around her knew about it. Now that she had finally met someone who knew the inside story, she had to ask him.
Dong Fengxia was silent for a moment and sighed, "Daya and Huzi are two pitiful people."
The two children lived alone, without their parents. Mrs. Zhou had guessed that their parents were probably dead, otherwise they would not have ignored the two children.
"Oh, it's not easy to have two children." Mrs. Zhou's eyes were red. She was getting old and couldn't bear to hear such things.
As they were talking, Mrs. Zhou pointed to Li Xi's house in the alley and said, "That's their house."
"Thank you so much, Auntie. If I hadn't run into you, I don't know when I would have found it. You are such a kind-hearted person. The gods and immortals must have seen it."
Dong Fengxia praised Mrs. Zhou so highly with her words that she couldn't suppress the smile on her face.
"The second house here is ours. Tell the children to come to my house if they have any problems. I can still lend a hand."
Dong Fengxia grabbed her hand and said, "Auntie, thank you so much. I'll give you some mushrooms from home in a while. They are all dried at home. Don't be disgusted."
After Zhou Pozi finished speaking, she actually felt a little regretful. She was kind-hearted and could say yes, but if she really had to pay something, she would not be happy about it.
But the words had already been said and it was difficult to change them. She felt a little stuck for a moment, but after hearing what Dong Fengxia said, her eyes lit up.
Even though they live in the city, many things are not as abundant as in the countryside.
Just like if they want to eat mushrooms, they have to spend money to buy them. Even though they are not expensive, it still costs money.
She pretended to be unhappy and said, "What are you doing? I'm an old woman and I keep my word. Those two children are pitiful. I feel sorry for them. I'm not doing this for your mushrooms."
"Oh, I know you are kind-hearted. I also want to be your relative. These are just worthless things. If you don't want them, you will look down on me."
They are originally unrelated people, and the social interactions are just one-way.
Daya and Huzi are in the city, so they feel more at ease having a neighbor who can help them.
Mrs. Zhou looked like she was afraid of you, "Okay, just this once, and it won't happen again."
"Then I..." Dong Fengxia pointed to the door of Li Xi's house.
"Aren't you here to see Daya and the others? Go quickly. I'm leaving too. Tell the two children to come to Grandma Zhou if they have any problems."
"Okay, I remember. I'll tell them later." Dong Fengxia responded with a smile.
Dong Fengxia watched Mrs. Zhou enter the house before she went up to knock on the door.
When she knocked on the door, Li Xi had just tidied up the pharmacy. She felt a little strange to hear the knock on the door. Why was their house so lively in recent days?
Who was it this time? Could it be that the two yamen runners had finally figured it out?
This shouldn't be the case. With their IQs, it's impossible for them to react so quickly.
Li Xi walked over and stood in front of the door. "Who is it?"
"Daya, it's me, your Aunt Fengxia."
Hearing the voice coming from outside, Li Xi's frown relaxed, unbolted the door, and opened it, "Aunt Fengxia, why are you here? Come in."
Dong Fengxia was holding a bundle in her hand. "Your uncle is worried about you and Huzi, so he asked me to come and see you and bring some clothes to Shuwen."
"Hu Zi and I are fine. Aunt Feng Xia, go back and tell Uncle Chang Qing to put his mind at ease." Li Xi pulled her to sit down, then stood up and poured her a cup of tea. "Aunt Feng Xia, have some tea."
"I just want some plain water. Why drink tea? It's a precious thing." Dong Fengxia waved her hand.
Li Xi handed her the teacup and said, "It's not something precious. If it were so precious, I wouldn't be willing to buy it. It's not worth much.
Drinking some tea regularly is good for your health. I have plenty here. You can bring some back when you go back."
"It's good for your health, so you can keep it for Hu Zi to drink. I don't want it, or your uncle will scold me when he gets home." Dong Fengxia took the tea that Li Xi poured for her and took two sips. "I'll just drink one cup to taste it. It really tastes better than plain water."
"Aunt thinks it's good, take some back when you leave later."
Dong Fengxia was about to refuse, but Li Xi said, "I brought back all the mushrooms that Auntie gave me last time. If you don't want them, then take them back."
What to bring back? Those things had already been given away by Li Xi. Otherwise, it would take her and Hu Zi forever to finish them all.
She just said this for Dong Fengxia to hear, otherwise she would not agree.
"Okay kid, but just take a little. Don't take too much. No one at home drinks this stuff."
This time Li Xi didn't say anything else, but asked about her family situation.
Hearing her question, Dong Fengxia smiled and said, "Don't worry about home. Everything is fine. The windbreaks have been planted. Your uncle and your eldest brother go to the fields eight times a day to look after them. They can't wait for them to grow."
Li Xi knew from her tone that Fu Feng was doing well, "Everyone in the village knows that Uncle Chang Qing is the best at farming. I am most relieved."
Dong Fengxia was also very happy to hear Li Xi say this, "But your uncle also said that this is his first time growing this thing, so you should take time to come back to the village to have a look."
"Okay, I'll make a note of it. I'll go back and check it out in a couple of days when everything is fine."
After talking for a while, Li Xi saw Aunt Fengxia looking outside from time to time, and knew that she couldn't sit still, so she took the initiative to speak, "Aunt Fengxia, didn't you say you were going to deliver clothes to the clerk?
Why don't we go now? The private school is probably finished by now."
"Okay, let's go now so as not to delay their classes." Dong Fengxia was really anxious. She had to go back to the village soon and Uncle Erqiang was still waiting outside.
