Lian Fangzhou helplessly smiled at villagers and Official Zhang (âLizhengâ in Chinese, which means someone mainly responsible for managing registered residence and taxation) and said: âI mean so. Only in this way can we benefit from each other!â
At this time, Lian Li yelled at Mrs. Qiao for a second, and then sighed to Lian Fangzhouâs brother and sister with a forced smile: âEven you listen to him! In fact, itâs really not necessary to be so clear! Now, how shameful for your uncle!â
What an ambiguous speech!
Lian Fangzhou sneered in the mind, and Mrs. Qiaoâs man had fallen into her trap this time. From now on, it wonât be easy for her to trick Qiao again. This uncle was really a hard nut to crack! As the saying went, someone wanted to gain an innocent reputation but also cherished the idea to satisfy his shameless lust at the same time. That was him!
The bad guys were all played by others, but only he was a good one! Now he couldnât take care of his nephews and nieces anymore. See, how painful and helpless he was! Lian Fangzhou and her brother didnât understand him, which was really heartless!
âThe big uncle didnât do anything wrong. What should him be afraid of? As for us elder sister and little brother, we canât be clear in our hearts anymore that how can we blame our uncle? This word is still standing! Thus our aunt can be more assured!â
Lian Fangzhou looked at Lian Li full of sincerity!
To act? Letâs played together!
âOh dear, look at you!â
âUncle, we really wonât misunderstand you! Really not!â
They were continually making several disgusting compliments to each other. Then after exchanging their looks, Official Zhang and several old villagers finally reached an agreement: sign a note!
Soon, the note was set up. Official Zhang read it out. Without any objections, the two sides pressed the fingerprints together. As witnesses, so did Official Zhang and the villagers.
This note was in triplicate, each party held one copy, and the other one was reserved by Official Zhang. Here, this story came to an end.
Mrs. Qiao stood up from the ground, and even snored heavily at Fangzhou and her brother with disgusting, as if she had lost a big bag.
After a quick eye contact, Lian Fangzhou and Lian Ze were both speechless. They never thought of taking any advantage of the Qiaoâs. Let alone dislike. But looked at Mrs. Qiaoâs superior self-feeling.
âSince everything is okay, then we will go back first! It is sorry to bother Official Zhang and the village uncles for so long. We must make sincere apologies later!â Lilian said with a smile.
To apology, it was natural to entertain them with a meal and something as gifts.
But if Lian Fangzhou and her younger brother didnât mention it, it was easy to let it go. After all, for people of the local village, to muddle through but never overdo was always the best.
However, great Uncle Li was not satisfied.
Last year, great Uncle Li had a serious illness and almost kicked the bucket! Actually, people of the old age were especially qualms about the word âdeathâ. But just then Mrs. Qiao murmured âOutlived rascalâ, which was right heard by him, so he felt a extraordinarily sense of tingling and anger.
How could great Uncle Li easily let Mrs. Qiao go ?â
âSo, is everything all right?â great uncle Li snorted and cast a stern glance at Qiao: âThis behavior canât be imitated. Without any punishment, people will followed the example. Otherwise, the reputation of Dafang Village will been ruined! Mrs. Qiao, since Fangzhou and her brother donât need you to take care of them, itâs too cheap for you to have a day and night outside the temple! Well, I think you have to add a fine about ten taels of silver as a village public account. What do you all think?â.
Mrs. Qiaoâs face changed a lot. She enlarged his eyes and stared at great Uncle Li. She was about to say something but was choked off by the stare of Lian Li.
âI think so!â
âYes, thatâs it! Lian Li, do you have anything to say?â
Of course, the villagers will not refuse this kind of thing.
Lian Liâs heart was full of bitter water. He certainly didnât want to, but what can he say at this time? I was afraid it was impossible for him to be willing or not!
âOK! OK! â Lian Li smiled and nodded: âI will definitely send the silver backâŠâ
âWell,â said Uncle Zhang, âthatâs good! You donât have to apology to us now! â
The muscles at the corners of Lian Liâs mouth twitched twice. He could only feel the bitterness and astringent. But even so, he had to clarify his position!
Lian Li licked his lips and smiled: âwhy not? It must be used. Ha ha! Apology is a must! â
âHow kind of you!â Uncle Zhang smiled reluctantly but not long.
Lian Fangzhou and Lian Ze laughed in mind, almost complete hysteria. They all said that Uncle Zhang was smart and greedy. How could he be polite if Lian Li asked to sacrifice something?
Lian Li deserved it! If not for his own fluke to say that, no one could force him.
âAll right! Everyone goes home! â Official Zhang said after the nodding with several village elders.
At this time, Hua Jintao suddenly laughed: 'since Fangzhou donât want the five taels of silver, aunt Qiao, how about just giving it to me! Iâll go home with you to get it! Although the money is not that much, itâs earned by my master through hard work. I canât spoil it at will! Isnât is?â
Mrs. Qiaoâs anger made her forehead a sense of dizzy. She glared at Hua Jintao and snorted heavily, but didnât mention whether giving the money or not.
From the beginning, this silver was earned from others. She couldnât say no!
Seeing the village elders went away, Official Zhang glanced at Lian Li and Mrs. Qiao and said with a smile, âCome on. You all go back home!â Then he especially stared at Mrs. Qiao. His meaning didnât need to mention.
âBad girl! You must die! â At the door of Offical Zhengâs house, Mrs. Qiao took a heavy to the ground and glared at Lian Fangzhou and her brother.
âShut up! Stop! â Lian Li reproached Mrs. Qiao, casting gloomy looks towards Lian Fangzhou and Lian Ze at the same time. Then he said lightly: âYour eldest aunt gets such a bad temper. Donât take her serious!â
Honest speaking, no one could donât mind at all after being scolded directly. Even people like Lian Fangzhou and Lian Ze were stuck in their hearts: This was their good eldest aunt!
âUncle is worried too much. Our aunt is just frank! We wonât mind!â Lian Fangzhou smiled a little and said, âI heard that my cousin is going to be a scholar next year so he will have a bright the future. At that time, Iâm afraid that when we want to talk with our frank aunt she would not stoop to associate with!â
Lian Fangzhou said that, then she called Ah Jian and Lian Ze to leave.
Lian Liâs heart sank and he stared at Mrs. Qiao. He didnât say anything because Hua Jintao was there.
Hua Jintao chuckled and said with his eyebrows raised, âuncle Lian and aunt Qiao, letâs go! Go to take the silver. I have to rush back to the city then!â
Mrs. Qiao stared at Hua Jintao again. Thinking that Hua Jintao is now a rich in the city, she stifled the abuse, but with the secret thought of âWait and seeâ. She thought that when my son became a senior official in the future, I would be going to hang your ass!
Hua Jintao took back his silver and went back.
When she got into the carriage, her face sank at once. Then she bitted her lips for a while.
