After being wrongly married, I stabbed my husband to death and became famous throughout the world.
Chapter 23 The mantis stalks the cicada
Finally, Li Chutian nodded.
Chen Yousong was getting anxious. He really couldn't understand how Ali could be so foolish. The Li family treated her so well, so why did she still want to stay here? Judging from her appearance, she seemed determined, even willing to challenge Li Chutian!
He was somewhat disappointed and wondered if he was untrustworthy.
But thinking about it carefully, it seems understandable that the child doesn't want to go with him, after all... that marriage made the child a laughing stock.
Ah Li's life is truly miserable.
Zhou's youngest son could write. After being called over, he wrote three contracts according to Li Shu and Li Chutian's wishes. The literal meaning was quite polite. It was roughly that the Chen family pitied her for losing her mother at a young age and was saddened by her loss. The Li family cared a lot about the Chen family's feelings, so they were willing to entrust Li Shu to the Chen family for upbringing and care, with the Chen family taking responsibility for her future. The Li family would not interfere.
As for where Li Shu lived, it was not specifically stated.
The guarantor shall bear witness.
Chen Yousong reluctantly accepted this explanation.
This proves that he can still take Ali away even if he doesn't want to.
The original owner had no name and was called Ah Li since childhood, or sometimes just Li Da Ya Tou. But now, Li Shu has emphasized his real name again, and Li Chutian feels that this child is becoming more and more rebellious and is not likable.
Li Chutian was educated, and he knew that the phrase "thinking about the workings of nature and devising ingenious strategies" sounded dishonest.
"Ah Li, remember this: if you suffer injustice and can't bear it, don't force yourself. Just run to your uncle's house. With this contract, your uncle's house is your home!" Chen Yousong carefully put away the contract, taking it very seriously.
“Okay, thank you, Uncle. I promise, if there’s any danger, I’ll run faster than anyone else,” Li Shu said.
Chen Yousong paused for a moment, seemingly because of her tone.
Those were words that Ali would never have said before.
She didn't deliberately pretend to be the original owner of the body. Her personality was completely different from Ali's, and she couldn't keep up the act forever.
"Okay...this is good." Chen Yousong seemed to struggle internally for a while before uttering a few dry words and leaving with heavy steps.
As soon as Chen Yousong left, Li Linsheng said, "Now you can tell me? Don't try to fool me."
"I keep my word, and I will die a horrible death if I lie!" Li Shu immediately raised his hand to swear. "This matter is very important, and your parents must not listen to it. After all, if word gets out, it could not only kill others, but also cost you the opportunity to make a contribution."
Li Linsheng nodded.
After the two entered the house and closed the doors and windows, Li Shucai said, "The Qian family has made a fortune by chance. A lot of silver will be transported over on the 18th of August, using their grandson's birthday as a cover. However, the bandits have learned of this and plan to strike on that day, targeting the Qian family."
"The mantis stalks the cicada, unaware of the oriole behind. The government has already learned of the bandits' plan and will ambush them on that day. You just need to find the right opportunity to kill one or two bandits, and you can earn a reward." Li Shu told him honestly, without a single lie.
"Really? How do you know so much?" Li Linsheng was somewhat skeptical.
“I have my own connections, and I even know far more than you can imagine, so I can still help you after you become a city gate guard,” Li Shu said confidently, but then added, “Of course, you’ll need to pay me a fair share then.”
"I've had a terrible time in this family, and I want to live a better life from now on."
“I hope you climb high enough, only then will I have a chance to make the Ma family regret it in the future,” Li Shu continued.
Li Linsheng didn't quite understand: "What does the Ma family regret? You got out of jail thanks to the Ma family, but I see you don't have a single bit of gratitude towards them..."
“Brother, don’t you know? It was Ma Chengting who deliberately switched my marriage. The person she wanted to marry was Yao Aning.” Li Shu said with a resentful look. “I want the Ma family to pay the price, but it’s like an ant trying to shake a tree on my own. So I need your help.”
Upon hearing this, Li Linsheng believed her completely.
That makes a lot of sense, after all.
Li Shu disliked him, yet he provided such important information, which made him somewhat suspicious. To prove that the information was true, he had to prove that Li Shu was genuinely helping him.
And now we have a reason to help him.
However, he never expected that Ma Chengting would do something like that!
No wonder the Ma family was so concerned and went to great lengths to rescue Li Shu from prison!
“Alright, I will make my move that day.” Li Linsheng smiled confidently. “These bandits are elusive and hard to catch. If I can kill a few, I’ll be at least a captain when I enter the city gate! Big sister, I didn’t expect you to have this ability. If you had shown it earlier, I wouldn’t have bullied you so much before.”
“I couldn’t understand it at first, and I was scared, but now… I want the person who ruined my life to die a horrible death, so I have no scruples anymore,” Li Shu said, raising his head.
"Don't be impatient. You know my abilities. As long as you provide me with information in the future, I will definitely eliminate the Ma family for you," Li Linsheng promised generously.
At this moment, he truly felt that Li Shu was quite good.
His previous pathetic state only allowed him to vent his anger.
Now, I'd barely be qualified to call her "elder sister."
"It's fine to make contributions, but don't be too greedy. Bandits kill without blinking an eye. Be careful that you don't get the credit and end up dead. I don't want all my efforts to be in vain, you understand?" Li Shu proudly reminded him.
“You don’t need to tell me.” Li Linsheng was even more proud than her.
After delivering the news, Li Shu went back to his room to rest.
Li Chutian and his wife were still worried, so they asked Li Linsheng again. After thinking about it carefully, Li Linsheng felt that the news should not be spread, so he just happily assured that he was confident of being elected and did not reveal anything.
“Ah Li… she just wants to live a different life than before. Mother, please stop tormenting her. Let your sister behave herself and stop competing with her.” Li Linsheng spoke up for Li Shu again, recalling the conflict that had occurred earlier.
“Son, you haven’t been deceived by her, have you? Her heart is all with the Chen family. If there were good news, would she give it to you instead of the Chen family? Have you forgotten how you treated her before?” Zhou Shi was still not at ease.
“Mother, the Chen family are military households, so they don’t need her information. Besides, how can her cousin compare to me? I’m much more capable than him. Li Shu can only rely on me.” Li Linsheng was confident enough.
He was strong and robust, while his cousin Chen was different; he was thin and sickly as a child.
The son of a military household was of average health. After his uncle died and his cousin went to the battlefield, he would not live much longer either.
The Chen family is destined to be childless and without descendants.
Zhou wanted to say something more, but Li Linsheng was getting impatient: "Go and comfort Aman! Don't worry about me."
"..." Zhou shut her mouth, looking ashamed.
……
at the same time.
After Chen Yousong returned home and recounted what had happened, the atmosphere became somber.
