After being wrongly married, I stabbed my husband to death and became famous throughout the world.
Chapter 68 If Heaven won't take them, people will.
Yao's parents' faces changed, and they were very flustered. They hadn't expected Li Shu to be so eloquent.
Others also had some doubts about Yao's parents' attitude. After all, Ali had been fine before, and the change started from that happy event!
The Yao family benefited while the Li family suffered – that's a fact!
But now is not the time to think about these things. The important thing is to get rid of this plague!
"Ah Li, what exactly do you want?" The leader, realizing that Li Shu was deliberately causing trouble, simply asked.
Li Shu smiled and said, "I don't want any of these things you've given me. I only want one thing—I want the Yao family to apologize to me on behalf of their daughter and kneel down to see me off!"
Leaving is inevitable, but some people's faces are not something to be trifled with.
"You, how dare you speak so arrogantly! We are the elders! There's no reason for elders to kneel before juniors. Don't bully us!" The Yao couple were dissatisfied.
“You are Yao Aning’s elder, and also Ma Chengting’s elder, but not mine. If you are willing to act like grandsons and admit your mistakes in front of me, I will get rid of my resentment and leave naturally. But if I can’t get rid of this resentment, I will die in the Li family.” Li Shu spoke softly, but his words were incredibly shocking. “When I was alive, I was a jinx. After I die… I’ll be filled with resentment and I don’t know what kind of demon or ghost I will become. It’s up to you whether you can bear it.”
"Who's afraid of you!? We absolutely won't..."
"Shut up!" The Yao couple were about to retort when the old man stopped them.
The Li family is in such a state. If Li Shu really dies, the resentment he harbors... is terrifying!
"It's just admitting your mistake, it won't cost you anything. Besides, your family did steal some benefits from Ali, and she didn't ask you for compensation. What can't you do?!" The conciliatory tone came.
Everyone had similar thoughts.
Since we're going to get rid of her, we should at least try to fulfill Ali's requests if possible.
Moreover, the child's current physical condition is truly frightening.
Yao's parents were shocked by the looks in the eyes of the people around them. They couldn't believe that so many people, whether they were relatives or not, were standing on Li Shu's side!
Make them kneel?!
Can Li Shu, with his small frame, handle it?!
Li Shu stood there, aggressive and intimidating, making everyone feel unfamiliar with her, including the Chen siblings, who had never seen her like this before.
The Chen siblings were somewhat bewildered, because in their minds, Ali was still that timid little sister who dared not resist, that pitiful and helpless weed. However, at this moment, she had become a plague god in everyone's eyes, using her "evil star" constitution to force the people she hated to kneel down!
This scene was like a dream, utterly unbelievable!
At this moment, Yao's parents could barely stand, because someone was already urging them on impatiently, as if someone else would die in the alley if Li Shu didn't leave...
They were very frustrated and were practically pushed and shoved to stand in front of Li Shu.
"It's just kneeling down and admitting a mistake, it won't hurt or itch. Hurry up, if it gets dark, this girl will have another reason to stay, and then who will be able to sleep peacefully?!"
"That's right, your family has gotten such a huge advantage. Even if Ali didn't say anything, you should still kneel down. Your daughter is now the young mistress of the Ma family. If you don't kneel down, do you expect her to?"
"..."
Each sentence was like a knife scraping flesh.
Finally, under pressure from everyone, Yao's parents, along with their children and grandchildren, knelt down.
Li Shu stood there, neither retreating nor dodging, simply watching quietly.
Yao's parents, holding their breath, said, "Ah Li, it's all our daughter's fault for taking your place. Please forgive her and don't hold it against us. We'll kowtow to you on her behalf..."
Li Shu looked at the head hitting the ground and said calmly, "Taking other people's things is a small matter. What's scary is that you have ulterior motives and malicious intentions. If you have ulterior motives, you will eventually pay the price. Your family should behave themselves in the future and not be so smug. Otherwise, if Heaven doesn't punish you, someone else will."
After Li Shu finished speaking, he left.
Everyone breathed a sigh of relief.
The Yao couple felt utterly humiliated, their pride and dignity completely gone. They trembled uncontrollably, and Yao's mother was so angry that she cried.
Li Shu lifted his foot, and the Chen siblings quickly followed.
……
Once they were outside the area, Chen Ying finally breathed a sigh of relief and said, "Ah Li! You did a great job! That's exactly what they should have done! The Yao family got the benefits and are now acting innocent; they're all bad people!"
Chen Ying felt a sense of relief, but at the same time, she also had a feeling of unease, as if... the person in front of her was not Ali, but someone else.
Apart from his face resembling Ali's, there's nothing else about him that resembles Ali.
So, even though this change was clearly a good thing, Chen Ying felt inexplicably sad.
"Now that you see I can take care of myself, I think you should be relieved, right?" Li Shu looked at them, not as obedient as Ah Li, but very frank.
"How can we not feel at ease!" Chen Ying found her strange. "You have to come home with us!"
“You’ve seen how these people treat me. If even my former neighbors treat me like this, do you think I’ll have a place to stay in your hometown?” Li Shu asked naturally.
“Yes!” Chen Ying replied immediately.
“Ah Li, we know what you’re worried about, but our relatives and friends on our side wouldn’t do that! You have to trust us,” Chen Feiqing said quickly.
“I have other paths to take, so I won’t beg for a place to stay. If you want to take me back to beg for help, you’d better give up that idea.” Li Shu said, taking down the water pouch from his waist and taking a sip.
Where did she go? This world is vast, but she truly is like a rootless duckweed, just like in her past life.
However, in her past life she at least managed to accumulate some wealth, but in this life...
Li Shu thought about his silver; he had quite a lot.
When she went up the mountain, she still had about fifty taels of silver. Later, she tricked Cheng Haoren into giving her ten taels of silver. After Li Chutian died, she also took over Li Chutian's belongings.
The red contract was useless; Li Chuiguang could get a replacement at the yamen, so she threw it away, keeping only sixty taels of silver.
That hundred taels of silver is enough to buy a large courtyard in Ganhe Town.
However, she didn't really want to settle here because the fighting ahead made her unable to sleep soundly.
Now that Li Chutian is dead, she has lost her elders, and her younger brother has agreed to separate the family. She can finally set up her own household. However, she cannot set up her own household so easily. As a resident of Ganhe Town, she is not allowed to leave her hometown to go elsewhere unless there are special circumstances.
In other words, even if she goes to register her household registration, she will still be stuck here.
Unless they travel by mountain paths, avoid the government, and become refugees, they can only have a clear identity elsewhere when they are lucky enough to be recruited and registered by the government.
Such a future is full of uncertainty, so Li Shu has not yet considered doing that.
Li Shu said that other routes were possible, but he wanted to find a quiet house to live in.
But the Chen siblings felt that she was just too proud to admit it.
Chen Ying grabbed her wrist to prevent her from running away: "I won't ask anyone for help! I promise! Ali, our area is full of military households. For generations, we've supported each other. If someone in a family dies, any young person who can still breathe will become a dutiful son or grandson! The relationship is very good! And nobody cares about any kind of evil aura! Where in the world can you find more evil aura than on the battlefield?!"
