Quickly wear it and get rid of his virtuous character

The eldest son had been studying with Li Qingshan until he was ten years old this year. Later, Li Qingshan failed the exams repeatedly, so he refused to teach his son on the grounds that telling his son to study would waste his time. He also never thought of sending his son to a private school or something. He usually just threw a book to his son and let him read and understand it by himself.

No matter what, these two children must never have any contact with Li Qingshan again. By the way, we have to think of a way to provide some special meals for the two children, otherwise both children may starve to death.

Su Tong still pretended to be sick in bed, and his condition even worsened the next day. Li Qingshan came to visit him, intending to ask for money, but seeing that Su Tong was coughing so hard that his lungs were about to burst, he didn't know how to start.

"Husband, it's all my fault. I'm not in good health." Su Tong said as she coughed forcefully twice, scaring Li Qingshan next to her so much that he took a few steps back.

Su Tong's heart ached slightly. He felt heartache for the original owner. The two of them were childhood sweethearts and were a loving couple when they first got married. However, as Li Qingshan failed the exams repeatedly, the feelings between the couple became weaker and weaker. Now they have no feelings for each other, as if all the love they had before had become a fleeting cloud.

Su Tong endured the discomfort and said, "My dear, it's a good thing that you came here today. I have something to discuss with you. I am not in good health and I am afraid that I can't take care of the two children. I want to entrust the two children to my parents.

On the one hand, my mother's family has a family school, so I can send my children to study there. On the other hand, it is time for Ruyi in our family to learn how to be a housekeeper.

There is nothing at home now, and I am afraid I can't make any money, so I might as well let my sister-in-law teach me. At least I can learn embroidery and read more female precepts and rules, so that I can marry into a good family in the future."

Li Qingshan was a little hesitant. It was okay to let his son go to school, but the key point was that if his daughter went too, who would wash the clothes and cook for him while his wife, who was sick in bed, went?

Li Qingshan naturally couldn't say such a thing, because he knew that the clothes he wore yesterday were already dirty, and no one had washed them yet...

Li Qingshan coughed twice and said in a pretentious manner: "Will this cause trouble to my father-in-law and mother-in-law? Let the eldest brother go for a long time. He is a boy, so it's okay for him to learn more.

My little daughter is learning how to do housework from you at home, and since you are sick recently, let her learn how to do it."

You have such a cruel heart. You let a little girl under 10 years old wash clothes and cook for you. Your conscience must have been eaten by a dog. But it was the norm in ancient times, especially for little girls from poor families. They basically worked like slaves for their families.

The only thing Su Tong was thankful for now was that Li Qingshan was a scholar and would not do such a thing as selling his children. If this person was a little more despicable and did such a thing, he would be despised by everyone, but it was also the norm in ancient times.

Su Tong suppressed the discomfort in her heart and nodded gently, "Everything is up to my husband, and my husband thinks long-term."

After Su Tong finished speaking, he coughed twice. Li Qingshan took two steps back with a look of disgust on his face. "Forget it. Since you are not in good health, just take good care of yourself. Don't say that our Li family is mean to you."

The next time Su Tong sent the person away, he invited his sister-in-law from his mother's family with a gloomy face, and his eyes turned red from crying.

"Sister-in-law, I've really jumped into a fire pit now. My husband is not only not ambitious, but he also exploits our two children.

I used to know how to teach Changyuan to read, but now I don’t teach him anymore. I spend all day immersed in the dream of passing the imperial examination.

I was seriously ill and couldn't even get out of bed, but I still had to take care of the housework for him. It was really tiring, but it didn't matter if I suffered a little, but I couldn't let my children suffer with me.

Sister-in-law, Qingshan is still young and hopes to go to school at home. I hope the child can go back to his parents' home to see more and at least relax for a while, but I can't take care of myself now, so I can only let the child suffer with me."

The sister-in-law also felt sorry for her sister-in-law, and her eyes were red, "Okay, don't cry. If it's about money, I will help you think of a solution when the time comes, but don't cry and hurt your eyes.

Although your husband is not very good, he is at least a scholar. Your good days are still ahead of you."

This is what makes the original owner feel heartbroken. She has suffered so much, but everyone seems to be used to it, thinking that women are born to suffer. Even if she dies, outsiders will at most praise her for being virtuous, but what's the use of being virtuous?

Su Tong wanted to divorce, but her family would definitely not agree. In the eyes of outsiders, she and her husband were still in love, so they would never agree to this. If she sought help from the government... that would be even more impossible. Her husband was a scholar and it was not expensive for him to meet an official. What about herself?

In ancient times, if a woman reported her husband, she would be punished with a stick. Could my small body bear it? I guess I would die after a few beatings.

Su Tong thought for a moment and felt that since the medical conditions in ancient times were poor, it was normal for someone to die, but the original owner strongly opposed it.

[Because death would put an end to everything, I want to make his life worse than death.]

Su Tong sighed in his heart. After letting his sister-in-law take Li Changyuan away, he began to think about Ruyi's future. He couldn't let Ruyi stay in the Li family and work like a slave.

Li Qingshan's brushes, ink, paper and inkstone were almost used up. In the past, when his wife saw that he was running out of them, she would go to the bookstore to buy some for him. But now that his wife was sick in bed, she probably didn't have the energy to buy them. He could buy them for her, but the money...

When Su Tong heard that the other party was looking for him to buy pens, ink, paper and inkstone, he immediately smiled bitterly, "Husband, I thought you had listened to what I said last time, but it turns out you really didn't take it to heart. Now our family is really out of money, and even food is almost gone."

Li Qingshan's face changed, "Didn't your sister-in-law from your mother's family bring you anything when she came over?"

He did bring things, but Su Tong put them all in his own space, and he refused to admit it no matter what. But she couldn't understand how Li Qingshan had the nerve to ask?

Li Qingshan seemed to feel that something was wrong with this matter. He coughed twice and tried to save face for himself. "You are not in good health. Your sister-in-law came to see you. I thought your father-in-law and mother-in-law would bring you some medicinal herbs to nourish your body. I didn't expect..."

Su Tong lowered his head, the sneer on his lips almost unable to be suppressed, "Husband, I didn't tell my parents about my illness, mainly because they are old, and I was afraid that they would worry about it.

Besides, we are going to study at my mother's house in the long run, which itself requires a lot of money. It's okay if I didn't give gifts to my sister-in-law, but if I still ask them for money, wouldn't that be..."

Li Qingshan suppressed his anger and said, "What should I do with my writing brush, ink, paper and inkstone? Is there really no money left in my family?"
