Chapter 154 Li Lao 3 is heartbroken
Looking at the little girl who suddenly spoke for him, Su Dali felt that her voice was very familiar, but he could not remember where he had seen her.
If he had seen such a beautiful girl, he should not forget her.
"You mean Uncle Su?" Li Xiaoxiao asked him again.
Su Dali was a little confused and just nodded subconsciously.
"In that case, Uncle Su, Third Aunt is still lying in bed. She got thirty taels of silver when the family property was divided. If we sell four acres of land at nine taels per acre, that would be thirty-six taels, adding up to sixty-six taels. The medicine is worth one hundred and twenty taels, so we still need fifty-four taels. You said that your family is not well, but we can still eat. Third Aunt's life is in danger, which is more urgent than your family's affairs. So you should first lend Third Uncle fifty-four taels of silver. When Third Uncle has money in the future, he will pay you back with interest." Li Xiaoxiao carefully calculated the bill for him.
Su Dali was stunned after hearing this. It was obviously he who wanted to borrow money, but how come he was lending money to Li Laosan instead?
The villagers who were watching finally reacted and gave Li Xiaoxiao a thumbs up in their hearts, thinking that this girl was really smart.
The head of the village had a smile in his eyes, stroked his beard unconsciously, and nodded in appreciation.
Old Scholar Li had a complicated look in his eyes. Li Xiaoxiao was indeed smart. If she had a better family background, he would still like to have her be his granddaughter-in-law. However, after what happened to the Song family, their relationship was not as good as before.
It took Zhao Xiaomei a long time to react. Li Xiaoxiao lied to them: "Where did you come from, you little bitch? What does it have to do with you?"
"How is it none of my business? It's Uncle Su who said that relatives should help each other. Now my third uncle's family is in real trouble, so what's wrong with lending some money? Not to mention lending it, even if I ask you for it, can you not give it to me?" Li Xiaoxiao repeated to him what Su Dali had said.
Su Dali's face turned red with embarrassment.
"My dear brother from my mother's family, there is no one closer than this, just lend me some money."
"The third brother is honest and will definitely return the money to you when he has it."
"We are all here to testify for you that the third brother lent you money. If he doesn't pay it back, we will all go to the county government office to be your witnesses."
"Your wife is so fat because she eats so much. Your family must be rich."
"Su is his biological sister, how can he not lend it to her?"
Everyone was talking at once, making it seem like Su Dali was making a huge mistake if he didn't lend the money to Li Laosan. But he didn't have the money. He came here just to get some benefits, but instead of getting any, he got himself into trouble and became a nobody.
"What do you know? I have no money." Su Dali yelled at everyone, pulled Zhao Xiaomei away quickly, and soon disappeared.
He came under the pretext of caring about his sister, but he never even looked at Su from beginning to end and ran away in shame.
Li Xiaoxiao raised her eyebrows in amusement. Generally speaking, she should thank Su Dali. Without Su Dali, the division of the family would not have been so easy. His problem was solved, but Li Laosan's problem was not over yet.
"Do you still live here after Uncle San split up the family business?"
"This..." When they divided the family just now, the issue of housing was not mentioned, and Li Laosan was just about to ask Li Laotou.
"If we split up the family, of course we can't live together. Otherwise, what's the point of calling it a split up family?" Old Mrs. Li spoke first, blocking Li Laosan's mouth.
"Grandma, where does Third Uncle live? The Li family only has this one big house, and there are no houses outside. We can't sleep on the street."
"That's their business. Since you care so much about them, I'll take them to live in your home." Old Mrs. Li said unhappily.
"Uncle San, our family has to go to the shop in the county town during the day. Why don't you discuss with Aunt San and come to live at my house. I don't have time to feed the livestock at home, so you can help me feed them. I'll consider it as hiring you to work. I'll provide food and accommodation for your family, but there will be no wages." Li Xiaoxiao pretended to think for a while before speaking.
"This..." Li Laosan couldn't make up his mind for a moment. If he only fed the livestock, he would provide food and accommodation for their family. It was obvious that Li Xiaoxiao was helping them.
"Uncle San, it's not too late for you to discuss it with Aunt San and then reply to me. One more thing, I'm asking you to look after my house. When I'm not here, no one except your family of four is allowed to enter the house."
The reason why Li Xiaoxiao said this was that she was on guard against the people at the old house. The third room's family were all weak-willed, and she was not at home during the day. With Old Lady Li's temper, it would only take a few minutes to go to her house to get some things.
So some things have to be said as early as possible to prevent problems from happening.
At this time, Daya ran out from the third room and said, "Young lady, my mother said she is willing to live in your house. She also said that she will take good care of the house and not let anyone in. You can rest assured."
The farce finally ended and the crowd gradually dispersed.
The village head walked home slowly with small steps, and Li Xiaoxiao hurriedly took a few steps behind him to catch up with him.
After looking around to see if there was anyone around, he said, "Thank you for what happened today, Grandpa Lizheng."
"No, it should be the village head who thanks you. Li Chunsheng is such a bastard. It's better to separate the third brother's family." The village head said with a smile.
He knew everything about the Li family, and he saw how Su lived in the Li family. But he was an outsider after all. Li Laosan hadn't said anything, so how could he say anything?
"As for Su's illness, your family is living a good life now. If you have any extra money, lend it to your third aunt for her medical treatment first, and let the third brother pay it back slowly later." Li Zheng was a kind-hearted man. Knowing that Li Xiaoxiao's business in the county was particularly good, he hesitated for a moment and said embarrassedly.
Hearing the head of the village say this, Li Xiaoxiao couldn't help but giggle.
The village head was laughing with a puzzled look on his face.
Li Xiaoxiao made sure that no one was around before explaining it to him. She moved closer and whispered, "Grandpa Lizheng, I'm only going to tell you one thing. You have to keep it a secret. My Third Aunt is not in a serious condition. She just wanted to split up the family, so I did something to her."
After hearing what Li Xiaoxiao said, the head of the village suddenly burst into laughter after a while. It turned out that all this was a trap set by Li Xiaoxiao.
I couldn't help but look at her with admiration. Despite her young age, she was thoughtful and decisive, and there was no flaw in the whole thing.
He really admired how he managed to keep the Li family in the dark and play them around. It was a pity that it was a girl. If it was a boy, he would definitely achieve something in the future.
Li Quanfu doesn't like such a good girl. It should be the other way around, he looks down on his own Dazhuang. Li Xiaoxiao is much better than Dazhuang in every way.
Just like when Li Xiaoxiao split up the family business, Old Lady Li asked Li Laosan to move out of the house immediately.
He is an honest man. He has been looking depressed since he finished writing the documents for dividing the family property. He does whatever his mother tells him to do.
