Traveling through the 1970s: The young wife loves to make trouble

Chapter 48 Enjoying Bliss
Li Zi came out of the kitchen and saw that Xiao Huai was the only one in the yard. She asked, "Where's my sister-in-law?"

"I went to cut bamboo." Xiao Huai replied, with a bamboo chopstick already formed in his hand.

"She's gone to cut bamboo again," Li Zi asked hurriedly. "How long has she been walking? Can I catch up with her if I chase her now?"

"What do you want from my sister-in-law?" Xiao Huai stopped and looked up at Li Zi.

"That aluminum basin is fine for heating chicken soup, but not for steamed buns." Li Zi frowned and said, "My sister-in-law told me to put the buns on top of the chicken soup to heat them together, but the chicken soup turns to water when it's heated, so if I put the buns in it, they'd just be boiled in water."

Xiao Huai was stunned by his sister's silly words.

Taking a deep breath, he explained, "Sister-in-law meant for you to put a steaming lid on the aluminum basin and heat the buns on the lid, not to put them directly into the chicken soup."

"The steamer lid you made last time was taken away by grandma, so we don't have one." Li Zi curled her lips.

"I'll weave one right away." Xiao Huai used the bamboo strips he had peeled earlier to quickly weave a round steamer lid, stood up and handed it to Lizi.

Li Zi took the steaming lid and praised with a smile, "Xiao Huai, you are amazing. You have such skillful hands."

"Go heat up your buns." Xiao Huai gave her a blank look.

Li Zi took the steamer lid back to the kitchen, and Xiao Huai sat back on the ground and continued to cut bamboo strips to make chopsticks.

At this time, the courtyard door opened.

Hearing the sound, Xiao Huai thought it was Tao Qiuyi coming back. He looked up and saw that it was his uncle, third uncle and third aunt. He silently lowered his head and continued to cut bamboo strips to make chopsticks.

"Brother, please walk slower. My whole body aches and I can't stand you dragging me like this." Wei Lao San complained in a trembling voice.

Wei Lao Da and Li Yuegui, each supporting Wei Lao San, walked into the house and saw Xiao Huai sharpening bamboo chopsticks in the yard.

All three of them were stunned.

Xiao Huai didn't look up at the three people, pretending they didn't exist.

"Little..." Li Yuegui was about to curse, but was stopped by Wei Laosan, "Don't cause trouble again, go back to the house."

Li Yuegui was a little embarrassed when she was warned by her own man. The suppressed anger in her heart made her face twisted for a moment, but she quickly regained her composure.

"You're back. Are you done?" Zhou Mei came out of the house and saw Wei Lao San being supported by her husband and Li Yuegui. There were still a few red marks on his face. She hurried forward to ask. "What's wrong? What happened to Lao San?"

"Go and call mother to the third brother's room. We will help the third brother into the house first." Boss Wei gave Zhou Mei a wink.

Zhou Mei immediately understood and turned to walk towards the kitchen at the back.

Wei Lao Da and Li Yuegui had just helped Wei Lao San lie down on the kang when Zhou Mei and Li Hongying also walked in. They saw Wei Lao San leaning on the kang with several red marks on his face that were very conspicuous.

Li Hongying's eyes turned red.

"Old Third, what happened to you?" Li Hongying walked over to the kang and sat down. She wanted to touch the red marks on her son's face, but she was afraid of hurting him, so she looked at Wei Old Third with a distressed look on her face. "That damn guy, did he get struck by lightning and hit you?"

"Tao Qiuyi." Wei Lao San gritted his teeth and read out Tao Qiuyi's name.

Tao Qiuyi, a junior, beat him, an elder.

He hates.

She wanted to tear Tao Qiuyi into pieces. "Did that little brat hit you again?" Li Hongying raised her voice unconsciously.

"Tao Qiuyi didn't just beat up the Third Brother," Wei Laoda answered, briefly recounting what happened. "Third Uncle promised to mediate for us. He sent his two grandsons to our house and carried Jing Yuan to Third Uncle's house."

"My third uncle, third aunt, and two cousins all helped us persuade Jingyuan, but Jingyuan refused to sell the house to my third brother and didn't even say a word."

"Then Tao Qiuyi came to my third uncle's house and kicked down the gate. He grabbed a broom and started beating us. My third brother and his wife were beaten more severely."

"Boss, what are you talking about?" Zhou Mei couldn't believe what she heard.

Wei Jingyuan refused to sell the house, which was within her expectations. How could Tao Qiuyi find her third uncle's house and beat him up?

Boss Wei's face was gloomy. "You heard right. Tao Qiuyi beat up the three of us and his two grandsons at his uncle's house."

"How dare the little brat beat up the three of you and the two grandsons of the third brother's family?" Li Hongying's face was full of disbelief.

"She's more than just bold," Li Yuegui said, "she even arrogantly kicked down the gate of Third Uncle's house."

She saw it with her own eyes.

Li Hongying and Zhou Mei looked at her at the same time, and Li Yuegui added, "I was in the yard at the time, and I saw with my own eyes the gate fly over our heads and land at the entrance of the main hall."

"Tao Qiuyi... is so powerful?" Zhou Mei still found it hard to imagine.

"No matter how powerful she is, she is still a junior. If a junior hits an elder, he will be punished by God." After saying this, Li Hongying turned around and walked out angrily.

Before Boss Wei and his companions could react, they heard Li Hongying's shouting and cursing outside.

"You little bastard, you are a black-hearted thing. If you dare to hit my two sons, I will fight you to the death." Li Hongying rushed to Tao Qiuyi and raised her hand to hit her.

As soon as Tao Qiuyi put down the four bamboos she had dragged back, Li Hongying rushed to her, cursing and raising her hand to hit her. Her body's instinct reacted faster than her brain, and she twisted flexibly and dodged to the side.

"Comrade Li Hongying, what's wrong with you again?" Tao Qiuyi asked this deliberately. She heard clearly what Li Hongying had just said to scold her.

"Stop pretending to be stupid. Don't you know what you did?" Li Hongying was so angry that she didn't hit Tao Qiuyi!
"Of course I know." Tao Qiuyi looked at Li Hongying with a half-smile, "I have done too many things. I don't know which one you are talking about, Comrade Li Hongying."

Yesterday, Tao Qiuyi saw Li Hongying's partiality and viciousness, and always addressed Li Hongying as Comrade Li Hongying.

Li Hongying does not deserve the title of grandma.

"You little bastard, you're still pretending to be stupid." Li Hongying's eyes were red with anger, and she pounced on Tao Qiuyi like a wild animal protecting its cub. "You little bastard, I'll let you be arrogant, I..."

"Comrade Li Hongying, your face doesn't hurt so soon?" Tao Qiuyi reminded her, gently kicked up a bamboo at her feet with her toes, held it with one hand, and held back Li Hongying who was rushing towards her.

"You...you dare to hit me." Li Hongying didn't dare to move for a moment.

"Do you dare? Didn't I beat you yesterday?" Tao Qiuyi smiled indifferently, "If you think I beat you too lightly yesterday and you still dare to come and shout and jump in front of me, I don't mind beating you again. I guarantee that you will stay in bed for ten days or half a month."

What a bullshit enjoyment! How can lying in bed be considered enjoyment? Li Hongying really wanted to curse back, but she didn’t dare.

"You...you..." Li Hongying didn't dare scold Tao Qiuyi, but she could scold Wei Jingyuan. She turned around and shouted into the house. "Wei Jingyuan, you disrespectful and unfilial useless person, a damned bastard, you only know how to hide in the house like a turtle."
