Chapter 138 The Queen of the Li Palace 7
In the hot summer, on a lazy afternoon, there was a dark blue figure on the recliner under the fruit tree.

Zihua lay on the chair and slept soundly, when suddenly she heard someone calling her outside the door, she woke up from her sleep, but felt that this scene seemed familiar.

This morning, Tang Hua went out to hunt, but he still hasn't come back. Could it be that he was bitten by something again?

She walked quickly to the door, pulling the peg away quickly.

Standing outside the door was Li Xiaotao who just came here a few days ago. She was carrying a familiar basket in her hand, and she came to deliver things again.

Zihua turned sideways to let her in, just as she had something she wanted to think about.

She invited Li Xiaotao into the back room and poured her a cup of tea.

"Thank you! Miss Tang."

Li Xiaotao took the tea, blew on it, and took a sip. As soon as she tasted it, she tasted that the tea was more delicate than any she had ever drunk before. It was an unprecedented tea fragrance. This tea might be very expensive Tea.

She put down the tea, "Miss Tang, how is Mr. Tang's injury now?"

"It's almost better. He went hunting in the mountains today, and he should be back later."

"Really, then I'm relieved."

There was silence in the air.

The two sat upright for a long time, but they couldn't think of any suitable topics for their chat.

Li Xiaotao could feel the disparity in status between them just from the food and tea they drank, and she was afraid that if she didn't pay attention, she would say something rude.

So after she drank the tea in place, she said she was leaving.

If Zihua hadn't said any polite words, he would have sent her to the door and closed the door, but as soon as he put the wooden peg on, a series of curses sounded from outside the wall.

"You poisonous woman, you killed my precious son, took my family's gift money and left. What on earth did our family do to offend you? You actually want to retaliate against us like this? You are a snake-hearted woman, you can't be nice." Die, why don't you die, how can there be such a poisonous person as you in this world, you die for me, die..."

The noise of fighting outside became more and more intense, and the originally peaceful environment, like ink dripping into clear water, soon turned the entire glass of water black, breaking the tranquility and turning it into a noisy one.

The environment in the village was quiet, and the noise here quickly attracted the attention of the whole village. The first person to rush to the scene was Mrs. Cui, who was doing needlework in the house.

After Zihua heard many voices outside, she thought about it and went out.

I saw Li Xiaotao crying and falling down on the ground, standing in front of her was a fat old woman, the old woman was very emotional, her eyes were wide open, the hatred in her eyes was very strong, her face was flushed, and she opened her mouth to say desperately As he spoke, saliva flew everywhere, and the words he spit out were extremely unpleasant, and three sentences could not be separated from a dead word.

She was about the size of four Li Xiaotaos. If it wasn't for being pulled by a few peasant women who were used to doing rough work, she would probably be like a runaway wild horse, kicking people to death.

Zihua has experienced so many worlds, and it is the first time that he sees such strong hatred in others, it looks like he is really going to kill someone.

Seeing her crazy expression, the three women pressed her hand harder.

Cui stood in front of the old woman, blocking her view of Li Xiaotao. After seeing that she was not so excited, she helped Xiaotao who fell to the ground and cried, and gently tidied her messy hair with her hands. Resting his head gently on his shoulders.

"You poisonous woman, you still have the face to cry. You killed my son, and now you refuse to return the bride price. How can there be a person like you in this world."

Seeing Li Xiaotao crying, the old woman became more angry and shouted louder, scaring Cui's chickens into clucking.

Li Xiaotao didn't speak, and Cui Shi helped her speak, "I said, aunt, what you said is not right, this daughter-in-law was chosen by you, she will be imprisoned, and it's fine if she kicks her out, but you guys It's too much to even think about getting the bride price back! This child's innocence is gone."

"Hmph, her innocence is gone, and my son is gone? It's only my fault that I was in a hurry to hold my grandson, and didn't notice that this girl had a broken hand. This would kill my son."

The old woman's face was full of remorse.

At this time, Li Xiaotao, who had been crying softly, said, "I...the one on my hand is not a severed palm at all, it's just a scar from accidentally hurting my hand while doing something earlier."

Li Xiaotao was also wronged, she slept soundly at that time, but when she woke up the next day, she found her husband's body was cold, and he lost his breath when he touched her again.

The two have only known each other for less than five days since they visited the church. She is not sad about his death. She just thinks that her life will not be very good in the future. What kind of ominous person insisted on looking at her palm prints, took a quick look at her, and said that she was a broken palm, which would bring misfortune.

This unprovoked husband is gone, and she was charged with such a crime. She wanted to be kicked out, at least she didn't have to be afraid of being beaten and scolded, but she didn't expect that less than two months after she came out, people from her husband's family came to the door Ask her for dowry money.

The dowry money from the beginning had been used to build a new house for his younger brother to marry a wife. Recently, life has been a little tight, and this suddenly popped up to ask her to pay back the dowry money. She really didn't know where to find the money for her.

When she thought of this, she vented out her grievances from being rumored to be a broken palm and suffered all kinds of abuse, and she no longer cried quietly, but howled loudly.

Cui's chickens seemed to sense her grievance, and their clucking became louder.

Zihua originally thought that leaving the palace and staying away from the heroine's scheming tricks would give him a leisurely tranquility, but he never thought that there would be noise in this village, but compared to the palace, it was more straightforward and rough , there is no such kind of darkness that is torn behind the scenes.

Human voices and rooster crowing made the cochlea ache. She rubbed her painful temples, looked at the old woman who was still cursing, and Li Xiaotao who was still crying, and turned to go home.

Not long after, when the old woman was tired from cursing and gasping for breath, she threw a money bag on the ground.

Everyone fell silent because of the sudden appearance of the money bag, even Li Xiaotao, who had been crying all the time, didn't cry anymore, only the tears in his eyes were overflowing.

Everyone looked at Zihua who suddenly appeared in the middle, and saw that her face was calm, and her whole body was exuding air-conditioning. She did not have the gentleness of the past at all, only a sense of strangeness.

Seeing that everyone had stopped talking, Zihua took a step forward, picked up the purse on the ground, and walked towards the old woman who was being held back.

"Here is the dowry money you asked for. Count it and see if it is enough. If you have enough, then leave quietly."

The old woman was stunned for a moment, and when she came back to her senses, she was talking about the gift money. She immediately took the money bag and counted it carefully.

Money is a good thing, and it always attracts people's attention more than other things.

The people who were talking in a low voice just now were holding their breath to watch the old woman count the money.
