Chapter 192: The Lion Opens Its Jaws Widely

him countless times.Although grandma whispered, those devils were also inexperienced on the battlefield for the first time, and that's why they lost their lives. They got outsmarted by grandpa.Regardl..."What do you care what I do!"

The eldest daughter-in-law stood up directly and shouted, "I know where your eldest son is! Give me money, or I absolutely won't tell you, leaving you to never find him!"

"You should have said this earlier, why put on a show for us We wasted two bowls of noodles because of you." Li Lao Er also stood up, his face twisted into a mocking smile. "Just say it, how much do you want"

The eldest daughter-in-law hesitated for a moment before shouting, "A thousand taels! Just give me a thousand taels, and I'll take you to find the person."

"How much" The Li family was both surprised and angry, "One thousand taels, just for a piece of news, you think we are suckers!"

On either side, they were at each other's throats. The elder Miao’s daughter-in-law, no longer putting on airs, glared and spat out, “Your family has such a large courtyard, with hot springs and valleys producing gold every day. You wouldn't be able to come up with even a thousand taels! No wonder your eldest son doesn't want anything to do with you..."

Before she could finish her words, Old Madam Li slapped her across the face.

The crisp slap and the burning sensation on her face left Miao's eldest daughter-in-law stunned for a long while.

Li Laotai, however, coldly greeted him, "Lao Si, it's up to you! Find out where your eldest brother is!"

"Alright, Mother! Just you watch!" Li Lao Si had long since gone mad with rage. There was no mercy left in him now.

He called for Jia and got a rope. He kicked Miao Lao Da's wife down with one foot, tied her up and hung her under the eaves.

The eldest daughter-in-law was stunned. Her impression of the Li family was still stuck in what it was like back home.

Old Li was still young when she became a widow, raising several children. When people bullied her, she mostly kept silent.

That is, only when his son passed the imperial examination and became a jinshi did he feel proud and truly live in the limelight for a while.

Later on, the son was gone. People from miles around whispered nasty things, and the Li family avoided going out of their house.

Now that his son is grown and there's money in the household, he's actually become so brazen

She quickly begged for forgiveness, “Elder sister-in-law, I was wrong, I really was wrong. Let’s talk things through! I don’t want a thousand taels, five hundred will do!”

Unfortunately, the Li family completely ignored her, and even Tao Hongying shoved a rag into her mouth.

"It's a shame about those two bowls of noodles. Don't let her spit them out, it's wasteful."

Jia Yin, being carried by Jia Ren, leaned against her brother's ear and almost burst into laughter.

Both her parents are so fierce and adorable, she must be such a lucky person!

Li Lao Si lit a thorny stick in the corner of the courtyard and with one hand, he whipped it across Miao Lao Da's wife's back. It hurt her so badly that she cried out, "Ow!", and bent over, like a big shrimp.

She wanted to beg for mercy, but she couldn't speak.

Old Li didn't stop either, blinking and delivering seven or eight more blows.

"Who gave you the guts to come here and blackmail! You better deliver a message, we'll take care of you out of goodwill! But are you insane to demand one thousand taels"

"Alright, today I'll kill you and send you back. Let your master see how much he wants to pay. Depending on your life, it might not even be worth a thousand taels."

The eldest son's daughter-in-law was truly terrified, the pain made her want to faint, and she regretted it so much that her intestines turned green.

Had she known the Li family was this frightening, she wouldn't have even stepped inside.

Since begging for mercy wouldn't work, she could only hope to hear any news and come to investigate. If the Li family had some concerns, they might release her.

Perhaps heaven heard her thoughts, suddenly a head emerged from the wall on her right.

She was extremely surprised and quickly cried out for help.

Unfortunately, it was Yemont. He just glanced at the courtyard and asked, "Need help I'm good at extracting confessions."

Li Laosi waved his hand. "Go to sleep, Big Mountain brother, it's just a small thing, it will be over soon."

Done

The daughter-in-law of the head of the village's mind buzzed, this was a gang! Today her life would be here!

She struggled desperately, she didn't care about the money anymore, all that mattered was getting out alive.

Li Lao Si took a few more puffs before finally pulling the cloth out of her mouth.

The eldest daughter-in-law of the Miao family coughed while desperately trying to explain herself, afraid that the Li family would be dissatisfied.

"I said, I said, I saw your eldest brother in Kyoto. He was dressed so well, riding in a carriage. I followed him all the way and saw him enter a place called Liushu Lane in the south of the city. "

"I originally planned to just live my life, taking things easy and going with the flow. But then I ran into your second son in the valley. He told me that all the land around here belongs to your family, so I thought, well, might as well come deliver a message!"

"Hmph, sending a message is fake, extortion is the real deal!" Li Lao'er crossed his arms and stood aside, sneering, and shouted, "Lao Si, I think she's not being honest, she probably didn't tell the truth, keep hitting!"

"Yes, keep hitting her, she made grandma so angry, beat her to death!" Jiayi and the other boys were egging him on too. Miao's eldest daughter-in-law was so frightened she almost wet herself.

“Spare my life, please! Everything I said is true, not a single word is wrong. You don’t believe...if you don’t believe, I can tell you, my master is the Chu family in Xicheng Dingzi Alley, our master runs a textile shop! I signed a death contract, there's absolutely no way to escape!”

Li Lao Si and Li Lao Er exchanged a glance. Li Lao Si gave two more hard strikes before letting the person go.

The eldest daughter-in-law of the Miao family seemed like a meatworm, rolling forward in circles and crying to Li Laotai, "Old sister-in-law, I was wrong. I just got greedy for money for a moment. Please let me go. I won't do it again."

Li Laotai's mind was full of her eldest son, she had no time to pay attention to her, so she waved her hand and took Jia Yin into the house.

Li Lao Si kicked Miao Lao Da's wife in the leg, untied her ropes, “Get out! If you dare to scheme against our family again, I’ll chop off your head!”

The daughter-in-law didn't dare say a word, and as soon as she was free, she stumbled out the door. She even tripped on the threshold and fell hard outside, causing Jia An and Jia Xi to follow behind making faces and laughing non-stop.

Li Laosì whispered a few words to Li Laèr, then called up Jiāyì and secretly followed after him.

In the house, Old Li held her chubby granddaughter, her eyes somewhat vacant.

All these years, my eldest son's tears and the injustices he suffered seem so vivid in my mind.

She wasn't just waiting for this day, but when it finally arrived, she didn't seem happy about it.

She was afraid, afraid that her son had truly abandoned his family because of wealth and prosperity.

Jia Yin understood Grandma's feelings very well. In her past life, she had wandered countless times in front of her parents' new homes, experiencing this same kind of conflict.

She was racking her brains to find excuses for their abandonment, while simultaneously hating them for their ruthlessness.

People who haven't experienced it don't know how painful it is to be hurt by family.

This kind of pain runs far deeper than heartbreak or betrayal by a friend, and it's a wound that can never truly heal.

She hugged her grandmother's neck, saying nothing. Her small hands patted her grandmother's back repeatedly.

When the old woman came to her senses, her granddaughter's tears had soaked her shoulders.

The old woman quickly hugged her granddaughter and hurriedly soothed, "Funiu, why are you crying You're breaking grandma's heart Don't be afraid, grandma is fine. Grandma was just curious what that little rascal has become after being outside for so many years. Grandma isn't sad, really..."

The old woman was originally comforting her granddaughter, but as she spoke, tears welled up in her eyes.

"Funiu'er, you say your uncle is living a useless life, how can he not even be as good as you, a little doll! You know how to feel sorry for grandma, why doesn't he know how to feel sorry for his mother!"se places every time they went there. Last time, I saw someone ask my uncle to bring a package to one of them for his uncle-in-law. He even had to treat my uncle to a drink to thank him for the help!"...
