Chapter 238 Does He Dare to Go with You?
Mr. Li felt unhappy after hearing this, but there was nothing he could do. The aroma of the braised pork ribs and eight-treasure soup in front of him made his mouth water, but he didn't want to eat at all.
"Who can eat such a small amount of food?" Li Zhengzhan took a look at the ribs placed in front of Mr. Li and snorted coldly, seeming to be somewhat dissatisfied.
Li Mingxia's family had good food and drinks every day. They had hoped to get more good food these days, but neither Mrs. Zheng nor Li Dalang got any benefits. They finally waited until today when Li Mingxia brought food. They thought they could have a good meal, but they only brought two large bowls of soup and pork ribs, which were not full! At most, it was enough for two people. In addition to Mrs. Zheng and Mr. Li, at most, Li Mei'e could get a little bit. They definitely couldn't eat a bite!
The more Li Zhengzhan thought about it, the angrier he felt. He looked at Li Mingxia with a critical look in his eyes, but when he thought about how aggressive Li Mingxia was now, he didn't dare to say anything unpleasant.
Old Master Li snorted and was about to scold him, but Li Mingxia immediately took the lead: "Who do you want to feed? Do you want others to serve you now that you have hands and feet? These are the things I sent to thank my second uncle, and you want to eat them? Whose food are you eating? My second uncle's? Or my grandparents'? Who do you think you are? We are all peers, and you are still showing off in front of me. If you have the guts, come to me and say this, and I will beat you to death without even asking my brother!"
From Li Erlang to Jin, to Li Zhengzhi and others, they were all eating at the table, but when they heard Li Mingxia scolding Li Zhengzhan, no one spoke.
Mr. Li and Li Erlang felt that what Li Zhengzhan said was too shameful and he deserved to be scolded by Li Mingxia. Jin, Li Zhengzhi and others did not dare to provoke Li Mingxia at all.
"Don't say those bland words in front of me. When I hit you, you'll know who I am!" Li Mingxia said this and walked away without saying hello and looking back.
Until Li Mingxia left, Li Dalang stared at the Eight Treasures Soup not far from him, "How did this Li Mingxia become like this! How does the third child take care of the child? Look at our Mingxi, she never takes care of such a child. If anyone knows how to take care of a daughter, it has to be me!"
Hua glanced at him, said nothing, lowered his head silently and continued eating.
If Li Mingxi really followed Li Dalang, who knows what he would become. Maybe when Xue Li offered the price last time, Li Dalang could have been sold to Li Mingxi!
"Let's not talk about anything else! Just talk about the price that Master Xue gave me last time. If you ask me, a little more -"
"Shut up! Eat!" Old Master Li couldn't bear it anymore and slapped Li Dalang hard on the head.
No matter in the countryside or anywhere else, selling children is not a glorious thing. Now is not a famine year. How can you just sell your daughter to a brothel when you can just make a living? If this gets out, who would dare to marry a good daughter in your own family!
"Dad! Why did you hit me? I was just saying that! I didn't really do that!" Li Dalang cried out in pain after being hit, and groaned while covering his head.
Li Dalang felt that he was unjustly beaten. He just said it casually and did not really sell out Li Mingxi. Why did he fight over such a small matter?
"How dare you talk back! I'll beat you to death!" Upon hearing Li Dalang talk back, Mr. Li became even angrier and was about to slap him again. Li Dalang was so scared that he hid behind Mrs. Zheng.
"Mom, look at Dad. I didn't say anything, but why is he so angry?"
Old Madam Zheng glanced at her eldest son who was hiding behind her, frowned and said, "Old man, what are you doing? The eldest son just said that casually, and he didn't really do anything to Mingxi. Besides, she is just a little girl, and she is the eldest son's own daughter. If the price is right, she really gave her to that Xue guy, so what? Is it worth it for you to beat the eldest son like this?"
Li Mingxi and Hua looked at each other and saw the worry and disbelief in each other's eyes.
At this time, the words of Old Lady Zheng and Li Dalang had already made them feel uneasy. Even if Old Master Li said more, it would be useless. They already felt that there was a high probability that this incident would happen.
Li Mingxia came back empty-handed. No one had eaten yet and they were all waiting for her to come back and eat together.
Although Li Mingxia said that they didn't need to wait for her, she was really touched when she saw the whole family sitting there waiting for her without eating.
"Eat first if you're hungry. I'm not going far away. We're all family. Is it necessary to be so particular about these things?" Li Mingxia said with a smile as he climbed onto the kang.
Zhang took the stewed egg handed over by Li Sanlang and said with a smile: "You also know that we are a family? It will be delicious when you come back to eat this meal together. Are you hungry? Come on, let your brother serve you some rice. The rice bowl is over there."
Not to mention, Li Mingxia was actually a little hungry at this moment. After hearing what Zhang said, he didn't hesitate and handed the bowl in his hand to Li Zhengpin.
"Your grandfather, what did your grandmother say?" Li Sanlang asked with confidence because he saw that Li Mingxia was very happy when he came back.
But Li Mingxia didn't want to mention this matter and instantly felt his anger rising again.
"I get angry whenever I mention this. I don't know how a good man like my second uncle could raise such shameless sons!"
When Li Sanlang saw Li Mingxia's face change, he was scared at first, then he breathed a sigh of relief when he heard that Li Mingxia was scolding Li Erlang's sons.
Zhang, who was lying on the side, saw all of this clearly and couldn't help but laugh.
"Tell me what happened quickly. Look how worried your father is. He's afraid that your grandma or grandpa has done something again."
Everyone at the table laughed when he said this, and even Li Sanlang himself felt a little embarrassed.
Li Mingxia was now a little calmer and told the whole story in a few words.
Li Zhengpin felt very uncomfortable after hearing what Li Mingxia said. He frowned and thought for a while, "Tomorrow, I'll ask him to go out with me and I'll talk to him!"
Hearing this, Li Mingxia burst out laughing. "Today he and I had a quarrel and we were unhappy. I scolded him. Tomorrow you have to take him out alone. Do you think he has the courage to go with you?"
