NOVEL SIMPLE Chapter 8 Let others do the work
The old lady frowned when she saw it: "Unlucky, why didn't you get hurt sooner rather than later, but at this time?
Why don't I see you choking when you eat? You get hurt when I ask you to work. "
Su Qiumei, who was sitting on the side, had a bad look on her face. She finally asked her mother to get a better piece of cloth, hoping to quickly replace the prickly burlap on her body, but who would have thought...
"I was afraid that my mother would be worried if I came back late, so I didn't dare to rest last night. I hurriedly hurried back all the way. Unexpectedly, it suddenly started raining heavily and the road was slippery.
As a result, I accidentally fell down the mountain and injured my hand. "
To be honest, Li Qingluo found it very hard to imitate the original person's tone and demeanor.
With her status and cultivation as an Immortal, she doesn't even know what it means to be humble and subservient?
"Why didn't I just throw you to death? Are your wings stiff now? I haven't even told you yet..."
When Li Qingluo saw the old lady, he was ready to curse again, and hurriedly interrupted the old lady.
"Mom, I heard that there are soldiers from the border town who have returned, and I also heard that the court wants to give some subsidized money to each family of those who have not returned for many years as soldiers.
I originally thought that I would wait for my mother to come back and say something before asking, but after waiting for a long time, she did not come back.
I was afraid that I would go too late and not find anyone to ask. In this hurry, I had to go out first. "
When it comes to getting money, the old lady pays special attention to it.
When he said this, Li Qingluo saw the old lady's waist, and she sat upright, her ears were slightly perked, and she listened very seriously.
"How's the question going? Where's the money? Have you got it? How much will each household receive?"
The old lady hurriedly asked about the money, not caring if there was any news about her third son?
"People say that there is no such thing. The monthly silver issued by the court every month is given to the soldiers. Only when the pension is paid will it be given to the family members."
Everyone knows this, as long as the old lady asks, she can find out.
"It's true that the third child gets so much money every month, but he doesn't know how to send some to his family. The whole family doesn't have to eat, right?" the old lady complained.
"When will your hand heal?" the old lady glanced at Li Qingluo's hand and asked.
"I can't move my hands. It's probably because my bones are broken. I heard that it will take a hundred days to break my muscles and bones. I don't have to see a doctor yet."
Mom, how about you give me some money to see the doctor? There is so much work to do at home every day, and I can’t do it even if my hands are not fast.
I once heard a doctor say that those with broken limbs can recover in less than a hundred days as long as they are willing to take good medicine. "
"With a big family, I have to take care of everything, how can I have any money?
Besides, how can we country people be so rich? If you have a minor injury, don’t always call the doctor. Just hold it tight and don't move it. It'll be fine in a while. "
"But Mom, there is so much work at home."
"Oops! Okay, okay, your work will be shared with others these days.
Go out, but don't spread that fishy smell all over my house. It's so disgusting. "The old lady chased him away in disgust.
I originally thought that when Li Qingluo came back, Qian would no longer have to cook for the whole family.
How do you know? This bitch's hand was injured from the fall, why didn't she just fall to death outside? Save yourself from spending all day seducing men at home.
Mrs. Wang had the same idea as Mrs. Qian before, thinking that she would be able to free her hands. As a result, they were all disappointed this time.
The two of them didn't know how to use a knife at the dinner table. How many times had Li Qingluo been scratched?
Li Qingluo pretended not to notice, and sat quietly at the corner of the table with half a bowl of rice soup shared by mother and daughter as usual, and drank slowly with Su Ling.
Even if there were vegetarian dishes on the table, they wouldn't be able to share it. The mother and daughter didn't care anymore.
At worst, if you are hungry, you can go back to your room and eat quietly. They have prepared a lot of cooked meat today.
Wang quickly finished the meal in three or two bites, but when she looked up, she saw a large table of people still eating.
She felt angry when she thought that she would have to wash so many dishes later when everyone had finished eating.
Suddenly, she seemed to remember that when she stopped Li Qingluo and her daughter this morning and asked them to help her wash clothes, it seemed that her hands were not bandaged.
She had an idea and suddenly asked: "Third brother and sister, you don't want to work and then pretend to be injured, right?"
When everyone heard Wang's words, they all looked up and glanced at Li Qingluo's hand, and then immediately looked at Wang.
Judging from everyone's expressions, it was obvious that everyone did not believe Wang's words and looked at her as if she were a fool.
Because of Li Qingluo's usually submissive temperament, he told her to go east but not to the west, told her to fetch water, and didn't dare to feed the chickens.
If she dared to be cunning, would they be able to exploit her and do so much work in the past?
The most lazy person in the family is Wang. If you want to say that she is capable of such a thing, she is the only one in the family.
After Li Qingluo drank a bowl of rice soup slowly, he put down the bowl of rice soup and looked like he was thinking about his family:
"There are so many unfinished tasks at home every day, and I am also anxious. I am worried about where to go to find money to find a doctor to prescribe medicine, so I can cure it as soon as possible!"
She looked at Ms. Wang and said, "How about my second sister-in-law help me invite the doctor here and pay for the medical expenses and medicine expenses first? Mother said she doesn't have any money right now."
Hearing that Li Qingluo dared to call the doctor to see him, it seemed that it was not a lie. Could it be that she had remembered it wrong before?
But when she heard that foxy girl asking her to advance money to hire a doctor, how could she be willing to do it?
She wished she had fallen to death outside and never returned to this home!
"I...how can I have any money? My mother is in charge of all the money in the family. If you want to find a doctor, you can ask your mother for money."
"Ms. Wang, I can't stop your mouth even if you have something to eat. If you keep talking nonsense, stop eating."
It took a lot of effort to get this third daughter-in-law not to mention using money to heal her hands.
As a result, she was provoked by this Wang family again. Can the old lady not be angry?
Su Qiumei frowned. She believed that Li Qingluo did not dare to pretend to hurt his hand and avoid work as Wang said.
But she felt sensitively that Li Qingluo seemed to be a little different after he came back from a trip to town.
If in the past, Wang would have said this to her, she would have sat silently and said nothing.
Even if you are severely wronged, you can only defend yourself with two sentences at most: It's not her, it's not like this, and so on.
There is no way he would say such words like this.
Su Qiumei stared at Li Qingluo, mother and daughter Su Ling for a while.
Seeing them, he lowered his head again. He only dared to look at the ground at his feet and did not dare to look up at everyone. He was still the same as before.
"Su Ling, your mother's hand hurts and she can't do the work. You can do it, right? Go wash the dishes after dinner."
Mrs. Wang couldn't scream, and Li Qingluo was working with an injured hand, but Su Ling wasn't injured, so she could always scream, right?
