"Since it can kill people, why do you still eat it?" she asked.
Shenpo Li said: "In our industry, we are half yin and half yang. We are used to it."
Yang Ruoqing nodded and looked at the low house again, "Shen Po Li, your house is about to collapse. Why don't your children come back to help you renovate it?"
Shenpo Li said: "I have no heirs. I am a lonely old man who has no family."
"Ah?" Yang Ruoqing was even more surprised, because everyone knew that Sister Li had a son who was doing a small business in the county.
Moreover, a year ago, Shenpo Li was taken to the county seat by her son.
"I don't understand. Your son is obviously alive and well, why do you say such curse words?" Yang Ruoqing frowned and asked in confusion.
Mother Li stood up and came to the clay Buddha statue.
He took a handful of incense and lit it, then inserted it into the small stove in front of the Buddha statue. He bowed twice more and turned his back to Yang Ruoqing.
"In our line of work, if you reveal too many secrets, you will be punished by God."
"It is enough for all the karma to fall on me alone, without involving other unrelated people."
"My son had a lot of troubles before he was sixteen. He almost couldn't feed him several times."
"Later, the Bodhisattva showed me a way to survive. I asked him to go to the poorest family in the county and become my son-in-law. He changed his name and joined that family."
"Sure enough, my son's son is about to get married now."
When talking about her son and grandson, there was a lot less coldness in Shenpo Li's voice, and more of a grandmother's warmth.
Yang Ruoqing said goodbye to Shenpo Li, walked out of the house and came to the yard.
Looking at the thin and lonely figure in the dark hall behind her, Yang Ruoqing felt an indescribable feeling in her heart.
She now finally understood why Shenpo Li lived in such a low and dilapidated house, and why none of her sons, daughters-in-law, and grandchildren had come to see her for so many years.
It turned out that it was because of these.
This is a kind of selfless maternal love, she is protecting her children and grandchildren in her own way.
She chooses to be alone, lonely,
She obviously has a son and a wife, but she cannot enjoy her life like other women.
Alas, God has given Goddess Li extraordinary abilities, but also wants her to endure things that ordinary people cannot bear.
not easy!
Just a few steps out of the yard of Mrs. Li's house, she met Luo Fengtang.
No need to guess, he must have come to pick him up.
"Tangyaozi!" Yang Ruoqing called him happily, jogged to his side, and took his arm.
"My mother-in-law and aunt said that you were kept by Mother Li. I was worried, so I came over to have a look." Luo Fengtang told the truth.
Yang Ruoqing pursed her lips and smiled, "What's there to worry about? Mrs. Li Shen is actually very nice. We had a great time chatting."
"Really?" Luo Fengtang asked.
Yang Ruoqing nodded, "I asked her about our aunt's condition, and Shenpo Li reassured me, saying that our aunt was fine."
There was also a hint of surprise in Luo Fengtang's eyes, "That's good, but we have to take a two-pronged approach, and we have to continue to take the medicine we need to take."
Yang Ruoqing nodded again, "Let's go home. I'll tell you while we're walking!"
The two of them had just walked to the side of Lijia Village, and were about to leave the village from here and cross a few fields. They would reach Changping Village by walking along the dam of the big river at the bottom of Mianniu Mountain.
At this moment, a shout suddenly came from behind.
"Are those Qing Yatou and Tang Yazi in front?" It was a woman's voice.
Yang Ruoqing and Luo Fengtang turned around and happened to see a woman walking quickly towards them.
"Isn't this Li Xiuxin's mother?" Yang Ruoqing communicated with Luo Fengtang with her eyes.
"Well, maybe there's something wrong. Let's take a look first and then talk about it." Luo Fengtang also communicated with Yang Ruoqing with his eyes.
"Qing'er, Tangyazi, where are you from?" Li's mother had already run up to the two of them and asked enthusiastically with a smile on her face.
Yang Ruoqing said: "You're coming from Mrs. Li's house. Madam, what can I do?"
Mother Li smiled and said, "It's nothing. I was chatting with a house over there just now. I happened to see you two passing by the house, so I chased you out to say hello."
Yang Ruoqing smiled when she heard this.
Mother Li said again: "How about you go to my house for dinner and then go home? I'll go back and cook."
Yang Ruoqing quickly shook her head, "Thank you, thank you, no need. I have guests coming to my house for dinner at night, so I can't leave."
Mother Li said: "Is this so? It's a pity that you are all at the door of my house."
Yang Ruoqing smiled, not wanting to get too entangled in this kind of casual invitation.
"If there's nothing wrong, aunt, we'll go home first," she added.
What kind of daughter does a mother bring up? Li Xiuxin is so awkward, so pretentious, so sensitive, brutal, selfish, and petty. All of this is inseparable from the woman in front of her!
Li Xiuxin made her elder brother Yang Yongxian so sad, and also brought a shadow to Ping'er.
Yang Ruoqing had no favorable impressions of Li Xiuxin, and naturally she didn't think she had anything to say to her mother.
So, she turned around, picked up Luo Fengtang and left.
However, Mother Li walked around in front of the two of them and blocked their way.
"Girl Qing, Tangyao, I want to ask you something..."
Seeing Mother Li standing there, looking shy and embarrassed, Yang Ruoqing and Luo Fengtang looked at each other and thought of something.
Because apart from that, she really couldn't think of any other interactions between Mother Li and them.
Yang Ruoqing smiled lightly and said, "Mom, if it's a matter between my eldest brother and sister-in-law, let them resolve it themselves. Tang Yazi and I are outsiders and can't help much."
The words hit home, making Li's mother even more embarrassed.
"Well, girl Qing, Tang Yazi, although Li'er is such a reasonable person, as a mother, seeing my daughter in tears every day, it makes me feel like a knife in my heart."
Mother Li said, taking out a piece of handkerchief to wipe the tears from the corners of her eyes.
"Since Xiu Xin returned to the Li family, her life has been really bad. She cried every day."
“I cry during the day, I cry at night, I cry when I’m asleep, and I cry when I’m awake.”
"The food doesn't taste good either. I've seen her lose weight several times during her confinement, and I'm worried that she'll have eye problems in the future if she cries too much."
"I comforted her, but no matter how I tried to persuade her, it was not worth Yang Yongxian's words and attitude."
"Qing'er, Tangyazi, could you please help me send a message to your elder brother Yongxian, asking him to come and take Xiuxin back? It's fate that the couple can live together again! Do you think so? ?" Mother Li asked.
Yang Ruoqing nodded, "Being husband and wife is indeed fate. You would rather tear down ten temples than one marriage. However, this matter is fate between the two of them, so let them solve it on their own!"
