On the way back, Li Hongfeng found that the villagers were looking at him with strange eyes, as if they were sympathetic and pitiful, and he felt a little panicked.

She couldn't tell anyone why she looked at herself with such eyes, whether something had happened, and she was about to reach the doorstep, so she could only speed up her pace and walk forward.

When he opened the door, Ye Cuixiang was choosing vegetables. Duan Qingen was not in the yard. He must have been holding a notebook in the room and writing and painting. The picture as usual made a tense Li Hongfeng relax.

"Hongfeng is back. Do you want to eat something? Mom makes it for you."

When Ye Cuixiang found that Li Hongfeng was back, she immediately smiled and felt extremely enthusiastic.

Li Hongfeng felt warm and shook his head and said softly: "I've eaten at school. Mom, please rest for a while, I'll choose the vegetables."

"Don't worry, I have something to tell you."

Ye Cuixiang told her daughter-in-law guiltily what happened in the Duan family. She wanted to help hide it. Seeing that the village was so big and the matter was very big, even if she didn't say it, there would be someone who would tell Li Hongfeng about it.

Instead of letting the daughter-in-law listen to other people's qigong, it would be better for her to make it clear. With this idea in mind, Ye Cuixiang made it clear directly. After saying that, she couldn't help but look back and glared at the room behind her.

This brat was very ruthless and didn't think about how her wife felt.

As she stared at her, she still had to help her son with some care. So Ye Cuixiang sighed and said to Li Hongfeng with a heartache and affectionate attitude, "Don't blame Qing'en, he is also angry. You don't know if you are not at home. Your uncle and cousin are just going to step on our heads and piss on them, and a car of torn clothes is forced to buy them."

"If they don't agree, they sit at the door and make trouble, and they even climb onto your head, insisting on saying that you are unfilial. You also know that our Qingen has always been facing you. Now, when they hear them say you are not good, they become anxious, and they open their mouths and say something like that. At that time, a bunch of people were watching, and they couldn't take it back, so they definitely didn't want to force you."

Li Hongfeng was silent for a few seconds and smiled, "Mom, I know, Qingen is for my own good."

It is definitely a good thing for her to break up at this time. You can tell by just watching the Li family step on her and force the Duan family to buy clothes. If they keep going, they will only become more and more serious in the future.

"Don't worry, since Qingen has brought this out, I won't be rushing to their house in the future."

Ye Cuixiang felt relieved and nodded, "I also know that forcing you to break up with your parents is wronged. Mom promises you that our family will be your parents' family and your in-laws' family in the future, and no one can bully you."

"Okay, go back to the house and rest, and say kind words to Qingen. From now on, our family will live a stable life."

Li Hongfeng didn't stay for help this time, and she couldn't wait to see her husband.

After entering the room, she saw Duan Qingen sitting by the window and settled the score on the notebook. When she heard the sound of lifting the curtain, Duan Qingen looked up and saw that it was her, her lips curled up.

"Come back?"

The next second after hearing his voice, Li Hongfeng's eyes were red uncontrollably. She hurriedly stepped forward and hugged her husband, with her voice choked:

"You don't worry about gossiping when you do this."

She has always been smart, otherwise she would not have been awarded scholarships all the time. After hearing her mother-in-law talk about the causes and consequences, Li Hongfeng already understood why her husband had to say things to force her to make a choice in front of so many people.

Even if the Li family takes her family's property and takes the compensation, they still have to regard herself as a benefactor. It is an indisputable fact that she was raised by them. As long as she has not been cut off for a day, as the niece who was raised by them, Li Hongfeng will not be "ungrateful" for a day.

Under such circumstances, Duan Qingen stood up and carried all the infamy on himself, causing Li Hongfeng to "forced to" and "had to" cut off contact with the Li family.

"What am I afraid of? It's not me who is causing trouble first." Duan Qingen smiled and touched his wife's head, comforting her warmly: "A bunch of people saw that they pressed me step by step and kept tolerating me. Besides, I'm still a young man. When others talk about it, they will only say that they bully people too much."

Li Hongfeng wiped his tears, his voice still choked: "You don't know that some women in the village love to gossip and can say anything that doesn't exist, let alone you really said those words."

She still remembers how some people in the village said about her when she wanted to go to junior high school but her uncle didn't want to.

——"It's not enough to go to elementary school, but I want to go to junior high school. I'm so immense."

——"Her uncle is just a farmer, and it's hard to raise her like this, so why doesn't she understand the adults at all?"

——"I look like a tough person, but I may be a ungrateful person in the future."

At that time, if Li Hongfeng's primary school principal had not valued her, and had specially traveled to junior high school to apply for tuition fees for her, she would have dropped out of school early and got married.

From then on, Li Hongfeng understood that in this case, public opinion would never stand on her side.

"Did you forget that our family still has to collect clothes in the village?" Duan Qingen raised his eyebrows slightly and smiled proudly at Li Hongfeng. "Our family is the food and clothing parents of the whole village. As long as they still want to make money, they dare not offend us. They dare to say anyone about gossip in the whole village, but they dare not talk about us. Even if they say it, they say you are pitiful, don't worry."

Li Hongfeng was stunned, yes, she had forgotten this.

She is not the helpless orphan now, she is Qingen's wife.

Li Hongfeng leaned against him: "How do you know that my parents have compensation? I haven't told you."

"Needless to say, just count your uncle and others' expenses. Unless they really steal money, they will not be able to make so much money in their expenses for twenty years."

"You don't have to feel sorry for them. From the beginning, no one in the village knew that your family had compensation. If you say that they were not willing to hide it from anyone, and they could use your reputation to threaten me, it would be a good thing for such a relative to break up."

After saying that, Duan Qingen turned sideways, took his wife's hand and patted her, and said warmly: "You don't have to worry about these things, go to school with peace of mind, I have me at home."

Nothing can be said to be more at ease than this sentence. Li Hongfeng, who has always been used to the bitterness, has been swallowed into his stomach.

She didn't know what to say for a moment, but she was a little weak and leaned her head on her husband's shoulder.

This is his husband and will protect her husband.

"Thank you."

After hearing Li Hongfeng's soft words, Duan Qingen smiled.

"You're welcome."

"I promise, my life will get better and better in the future."

****

The days that followed were dull, and the Li family became a laughing stock in the whole village. Li's father was furious about his wife and daughter going to the Duan family to make trouble without telling him that he was led by Yijun. He originally wanted to apologize in a low voice to see if he could make the big things turn into small things, but Duan Qingen, the young boy, didn't give him any face at all. He bit him to death, either go to the public security bureau or pay back the money.

There was a lot of discussion in the village, and some old people always looked at him with disappointment. Duan Qingen gave them two days to either pay back the money or go to the police station, but the Li family's money had already been spent almost, so where can they pay it back?

Duan Qingen had a strong attitude and refused to give in at all. Li's father could only grit his teeth and return the land and houses of Li Hongfeng's family as much as possible.

The young boy took these things but was not satisfied. "Where is the compensation?"

Li's father wanted to swallow him alive. After so many years, he added so many items and built a house. Where can I find compensation to repay to Li Hongfeng?

But looking at the old people standing with Duan Qingen, Li's father could only grit his teeth and look pitiful, "The family is really out of money, so raising a child is not that easy..."

Duan Qingen took out his abacus on the spot and calculated Li Hongfeng's expenses from childhood to adulthood at a very fast speed.

Finally, under Li's father's face, the young man took the bill and said in a plain tone, "It's not about the scholarship that Hongfeng took home. The money she spent so much as she grew up is not as much as you spent on buying a bicycle. Of course, if you have something to add, you can bring it up now."

Li's father had no choice but to add that Duan Qingen would tell what part he was calculating every step he calculated. Just as he said, Li Hongfeng didn't spend much money at all, and even gave it to the Li family a lot because of his excellent grades.

He had no shame to ask how much money he spent to raise Li Hongfeng, and he only tried to squeeze out a few tears, "But the family really has no money... Qing'en, at least you call me uncle, you want to force our family to death..."

"uh-huh."

Duan Qingen smiled at him, looking very easy to talk to, "Uncle, how much money can your family pay?"

Li's father wanted to say that he could not pay back a penny, but looking at the old people behind Duan Qingen and the village party secretary who frowned and looked at him, he wandered around and changed it to something else.

“It’s only one hundred and two at most.”

Duan Qingen asked: "Is it really impossible to get a penny? Isn't this just a bumper harvest?"

Li's father nodded, "I can't get a penny... It's really hard, and I don't sell much."

"Okay, a relative is a fight. Even though I have broken off the relationship, I don't want to force you to die. Since I can't take it out, I will only have one hundred and two."

Li's father felt relieved, and his eyebrows suddenly felt much more relaxed.

A young boy is a young boy, and it is still easy to fool.

Even if he calculated how much money he had, could he still search through the boxes and cabinets?

The next second, Duan Qingen spoke again, "The next time you sell grain, you will have to wait at least three and a half months. I know how much money you make by selling it once. Since you say your family has no money, I believe you."

"I don't spend this one hundred and two, I just put it in the house. Now everyone knows that your family has no money and can't take out a penny. Anyone in the village will see your family eating meat, buying wine, or adding something small and big, just tell me, I will give him ten dollars."

This is equivalent to asking the entire village to monitor the Li family.

As he said that, Duan Qingen smiled at Li's father who was frozen, "I know you love wine. If your family still has money, you will definitely not endure it. You can't spend it even if you have money. You can obviously have big fish, meat, good wine and good food and have to eat porridge. Wouldn't that suffer alive? This is more uncomfortable than death."

"Of course, you are honest and will definitely not lie, and you will not be punished. I, just follow the process, I believe, you must have no money,"

After saying that, he smiled at Li's father again.

Kind, innocent, full of trust.
