Chapter 74: Do You Really Think Li Ye Has a Good Temper?

~17 min read 3,338 words

"Sit down!"

"Xiao Ye, you sit down!"

Just as Li Ye stood up, Li Kaijian and Li Zhongfa shouted to stop him at the same time. Li Kaijian even stood up anxiously, putting on a posture of wanting to make a move.

This was really because Li Ye's dark history... was too rich, and that was truly a kick that could kill a dog.

If he kicked Han Han Lao Han into the hospital in a fit of anger today, his Li family would be famous in the whole Qingshui County again.

【Stepson is sucked dry by his mother, angrily kicks his grandfather into the hospital.】

Tsk tsk tsk, this gossip news, how attractive, how fermentable, maybe in just a few days, it could ferment and extend into countless versions, and the spit could spray into flowers.

"Clap~"

Li Ye didn't play any heart-piercing kicks or top-heart elbows, but clapped his hands, suddenly enlightened and overjoyed.

"Oh, that's right! It's definitely wrong to spend this money in a scattered way. You have to buy a house. A house is property that the big wind can't blow away."

Li Ye turned to Li Kaijian, who was stunned, and asked: "Old Dad, I'm going to Beijing for school in the autumn. How much travel money have you prepared for me? Houses in Beijing are not cheap, and this little money of mine is not enough!"

"Not..."

"You this..."

Even though Li Kaijian is a dignified workshop director, managing dozens of people, he can be considered knowledgeable, but he has never seen a drama king of Li Ye's level.

But Li Ye asked the question, so he could only tell the truth: "I don't have much money now, but there are still a few months, right? I'll save it for you..."

"How can there not be much?" Li Ye asked very surprised: "You haven't spent any big money in the past two years, right? You didn't spend your money during the New Year. Where did your salary go?"

"I..."

Li Kaijian stared, very unhappy with the questioning of his son, Li Ye.

In front of so many people, you really don't have big or small?

But Han Chunmei, who was beside him, said: "Xiao Ye, it's all my fault. I lent out your father's salary, a total of two times, 260 yuan, and some industrial coupons..."

Before Han Chunmei finished speaking, Li Kaijian interrupted: "What do you mean you lent it out? It was I who lent it out. What are you telling him for."

Li Ye asked a question that didn't open the pot: "Then who did you lend it to? Your grandfather needs to use it now! Why don't you go and ask for it back?"

The couple's eyes wandered, looked at Han Han Lao Han, and closed their mouths without saying a word.

Forget it, don't ask, it was lent to the mother's family.

It is estimated that seeing that there was more money at home, Li Kaijian acted righteously, and as a result, the other party's appetite was hooked up.

Han Han Lao Han's face finally didn't look good. The previous money hadn't been returned, and then he came to borrow it again, which was really not very authentic.

Li Zhongfa couldn't speak anymore. The in-laws came to the door to borrow money, so they certainly couldn't let them go back empty-handed, but this was too disgusting.

Han Chunmei's lips were bitten, and she said to Li Ye: "Xiao Ye, I'm sorry, this is all my..."

"What are you talking about? Apologizing to me, isn't that going to shorten my life?"

Li Ye hurriedly interrupted Han Chunmei, and then said to Han Han Lao Han: "Let's do this! I can't borrow the money,"

"But I'll point out a way for you. As long as you are willing, it will be easy to buy a big tile-roofed house in two years."

Han Han Lao Han took a puff of his cigarette and asked calmly: "There is such a good thing, then I have to listen."

Li Ye didn't hide it, and said directly: "I have a relative of a classmate who is a food processing cooperative household. He boils malt sugar at home and usually delivers goods to food stores."

"I'll go and talk to him and let him take the uncle to walk the road to the city. First, owe two hundred catties to pave the way. In the future, if it goes smoothly, you can earn a lot of money every month."

Li Ye finally understood. The human relationship view in '82 is different from later generations. If he didn't give Han Han Lao Han a penny today, Li Zhongfa wouldn't be able to justify it.

But borrowing money is endless. Then it's better to point out a way for him and let them toss themselves.

The malt sugar business is getting bigger and bigger. After the New Year, Jin Peng and Hao Jian went south to Guangdong Province, so they added a few more people. Adding the old Han family is not impossible.

In this era, as long as you move your brain and hands, is it difficult to earn a thousand or eight hundred a year?

If you can really earn money yourself, who would still be embarrassed to come out and borrow money? Those "borrowing money by ability, why should I return it" things in later generations? They haven't been cultivated yet!

However... hehe,

Li Ye believes that there is a 99% chance that the Han family father and son will not choose this path.

Sure enough, Han Han Lao Han looked at his son, and then looked at Li Ye, just like a turtle looking at a green bean, staring blankly without saying a word.

Li Ye secretly admired. He didn't expect to have traveled for so long and met a master here.

It was the uncle who couldn't hold his breath, his face collapsed and said: "I don't know how to do business! Besides, that's speculation!"

Old Lady Han also hurriedly said: "Yes, yes, your uncle is an honest person, and he is timid. Let him do business, he can't open his mouth to shout."

【You can't open your mouth to shout, why can you open your mouth to borrow money?】

Li Ye suppressed the fire in his heart and explained: "There is no one who is a natural businessman. He sells it to others for six cents a kilogram. I let him give it to you for five cents. No matter how you sell it, you earn it."

"Pfft~, I thought it was something good."

Han Han Lao Han laughed directly: "What five cents! Rice is coarse grain, do you know?"

"A catty of rice is only two cents three. Mixing water and increasing the scale, how much does a catty cost? I just said that children are unreliable. Isn't this being fooled by others?"

Li Ye's face twitched, and he almost wanted to leave, but for the sake of his goal, he still "earnestly" persuaded.

"No, Grandfather, look, the money you borrowed from me has to be returned, but the road I pointed out for you doesn't need to be returned,"

"And this business is long-lasting. What you earn is not two thousand, two two thousands can also be earned..."

Han Han Lao Han threw away the cigarette, and his old face sank.

"Oh, forget it. Xiao Ye, you are not young, but you have a lot of heart. I won't go around in circles with you,"

"If you are willing to borrow it for the sake of relatives, I will remember the kindness of your Li family. If you are not willing to borrow it, I will..."

"Ow~~ wow wow wow~~~"

Before Han Han Lao Han's hard words were finished, someone suddenly shouted "Ow" outside the main room, and then cried loudly.

Li Ye rushed out. He recognized that this was the crying of Li Ying, the little transparent in the family.

Li Ye was called back to talk about things, so there were no idle people sitting in the main room. The children of the uncle and aunt, and Li Juan, Li Ying, and other juniors were all playing in the side room.

Li Ye rushed to the west side room of Li Kaijian and his wife, and found that only Li Ying and Han Xiaoguang, the son of the uncle, were in the room. Sister Li Juan and the children of the aunt were not there.

And Li Juan was holding a wool coat tightly in her chest, opening her mouth and crying loudly.

In her hand, she was still holding a pair of scissors tightly.

Li Ye didn't ask Li Ying for the first time, but looked coldly at the cheap cousin.

Han Xiaoguang was scared back by Li Ye, but his fierce eyes showed his dissatisfaction.

"What's going on? What's going on?"

Li Kaijian and Han Han Lao Han rushed in one after another, asking anxiously as soon as they entered the door.

That boy suddenly opened his mouth and said: "I just wanted to wear my sister's wool coat, but she didn't want to, and she stabbed me with scissors."

"What?"

"You girl, are you going to stab someone to death! I..."

The uncle at the door immediately turned red-eyed, took a step over, and wanted to slap Li Ying.

But Li Ye grabbed his collar with one hand and pulled him aside.

"It's not Li Ye, she stabbed her own cousin with scissors. If she stabs him into something, I won't be finished with your family..."

"This matter is definitely not finished! You want to finish, but I don't want to finish!"

Li Ye said gloomily, walked to Li Ying's side, pulled out her little hand, and showed it to everyone.

"Come, please take a look. A child, holding the blade of the scissors tightly, how can she stab this poor cousin?"

"Use the scissors to stab? Are you all fools? Or blind?"

Everyone was shocked. Only then did they notice that Li Ying was holding the scissors upside down, and the blade of the scissors seemed to have pierced the skin, with bloodstains faintly appearing.

"This... what's going on?"

The uncle was also stunned. His IQ is not high, but he is not a fool. Now Li Ying is crying so loudly, he knows his own child, could it be...

Li Ye pinched Li Ying's arm hard, hoping she could give some strength. He had already pulled with the Han family for several rounds, just waiting for the last one.

Li Ying's arm hurt, and she cried loudly again, but she said while crying: "He wanted to grab my coat... I didn't give it... he used scissors... I grabbed..."

The little girl threw the scissors "Clang" and raised her wool coat.

"It's broken! It's rotten! He cut it for me... Woo woo woo... Wow..."

A large hole was broken in the good wool coat, just like opening a mouth.

And listening to Li Ying's wailing, the Han family also changed their faces.

Han Xiaoguang saw that the matter was exposed, and said hard-mouthed: "She and her mother ate at our house for several years, I wanted her a piece of clothing and she didn't give it... It was she who had to grab it and broke her hand..."

"You little rabbit, I'll beat you to death."

Han Han Lao Han was "furious," raised his foot and began to take off his shoes, looking like he was going to use the sole of his shoe to call

On the perfectly good woolen coat, there was a huge tear, looking just like a gaping mouth.

And hearing Li Ying's wailing, the Han family's expressions changed instantly.

Seeing that the matter was exposed, Han Xiaoguang immediately said stubbornly: "The three of them ate at our house for several years; I wanted one of her clothes and she wouldn't give it... it was her who insisted on grabbing it that caused her hand to get hurt..."

"You little brat, I'll beat you to death."

Han Han Lao Han was "furious," raising his foot to take off his shoe, looking as if he were going to smack his own grandson's stubborn face with the sole.

But watching him fumble about, hopping on one leg like a golden rooster, it was clear the shoe sole wouldn't be landing anytime soon, and if someone were to try to mediate, that would be even less likely.

Yet, strangely, no one went over to stop him; even Li Ye's "uncle" looked sheepish and embarrassed.

But Li Ye was a kind person; if no one else would stop him, he had to.

"Why should you bother yourself with educating a child like this!"

Li Ye blocked Han Han Lao Han, who was hopping around like a grasshopper, and said sinisterly: "Leave it to me."

Han Han Lao Han only froze for a fraction of a second before suddenly reaching out to grab Li Ye, shouting in a panic: "No, no, don't."

But Li Ye was too fast; the moment Han Han Lao Han extended his chicken-claw hand, Li Ye launched a flying kick toward the brat.

Steady, accurate, and ruthless—it had both form and spirit, and the timing was perfect.

"Li Ye~"

Li Zhongfa shouted in alarm, unable to stop him in time.

But Li Ye's kick was precise, landing squarely on Han Xiaoguang's backside, sending him flying sideways until he landed face-first in the dirt.

Li Ye lived in an era in his past life where you'd go to jail for knocking out a tooth, so how could he possibly make such a low-level mistake?

Even if he were to make one, he wouldn't do it in front of so many people!

Of course, a bruised face and a split lip were guaranteed.

"What are you doing? What are you doing?"

Han Han Lao Han lunged over and hoisted Han Xiaoguang up, pushing him angrily toward Li Ye: "Why are you getting angry at a child? Come, come, I'll give the child to you; if you have the guts, beat him to death today. If you have the guts, beat him to death."

【Playing the fool with me? Go to hell, you old geezer...】

Li Ye grabbed Han Xiaoguang by the collar, his mouth twisted into a sinister smile: "What? Heartbroken? If your family members were bled dry by an outsider, would you be lenient?"

Han Han Lao Han was furious: "What family of yours, family of mine? We're all one family; a child's play is nothing!"

"Who is one family with you!"

Li Ye roared in anger, pointing at Li Ying, who had stopped crying out of fear: "She is surnamed Li! What is your surname? Tell me, what, is, your, surname?"

"........."

Li Ye's roar shocked everyone present.

Even Han Han Lao Han, who seemed honest but was actually cunning, couldn't find a response.

What is my surname? My surname is Han, and with you Li... damn it!

And Li Zhongfa's expression turned completely gloomy.

"She is surnamed Li"—these three words effectively shattered the last bit of forbearance in his heart.

Regardless of whether the girl was his biological granddaughter or not, she took his surname, Li!

She called you grandfather, so you have to protect her, you have to cherish her, and you cannot let her be bullied by others.

And the one with the darkest expression was that brat Han Xiaoguang.

He was also the crown prince of the Han family, and in previous years he had bullied Li Ying, who was living under their roof, quite a bit. Today, with his grandfather and father both present, he never thought he would be the one to suffer.

But that damn blockhead Li Ye actually dared to make a move right in front of his elders.

The problem was, why did his grandfather, that blockhead, deliver him into Li Ye's hands again? Wasn't he afraid Li Ye would strangle him to death?

Li Zhongfa pushed through the crowd and removed Li Ye's hand from Han Xiaoguang's collar.

Then he said to Han Han Lao Han: "Old brother, let's talk in private!"

"Talk my ass!"

Han Han Lao Han grabbed his grandson and walked out, cursing as he went.

"Today I've finally seen the family style of your Li family; truly a wealthy household, a cadre family indeed!

A child can manage money, a toddler can make decisions, and a junior can lecture their elders..."

Grandma Li, who had a bad temper, immediately cursed: "How our Li family's style is is none of your Han family's business; you just need to return the 260 yuan."

Han Han Lao Han was driven mad with rage; he turned back to glare viciously at the Li family members, and finally shouted at Han Chunmei: "Don't forget, your surname is Han."

Han Chunmei's face turned deathly pale in an instant.

But then, Li Ye's voice rang out with a smile.

"She is also surnamed Li."

Li Ye walked out of his room and said with a smile: "She married into our Li family, so she is Li Han-shi. If you don't believe me, go back to your house and check your ancestral tablets; if they're written wrong, that would be a huge disgrace!"

Han Han Lao Han's mouth trembled so hard he nearly had a seizure.

You even dragged out the ancestral tablets; you're really trying to kill and destroy the heart.

"Good, good!"

"I'll just consider the twenty years of raising her as raising a dog; my eldest daughter is dead."

After saying "good" twice, Han Han Lao Han turned and left.

But Li Ye shouted coldly: "Wait!"

Han Han Lao Han turned his head back and roared like a tiger: "What else do you want? What else do you want?"

Li Ye slowly raised the banknotes in his hand, which he had just retrieved from his room.

"This is five hundred. You don't need to pay this back. If you're willing to take it, call the matchmaker over to certify that this is Han Chunmei's pension money for her parents.

From now on, regardless of your life, death, illness, or old age, she can go if she wants, and she doesn't have to if she doesn't want to. You cannot force her; after all, my father married a wife, not a bottomless pit..."

Did you really think Li Ye was a soft-hearted saint?

He had been circling around all night, holding back his temper and trading blows with Han Han Lao Han, just to wait for this moment.

If you want to cut ties, you have to be ruthless and make the Li family sever this relative once and for all.

And he also needed a reason to make Han Chunmei realize exactly what her surname was.

Whether you want to never see each other again is up to you, and she might not be able to do it, but she must stand her ground and not move around as she pleases.

Because from now on, what Han Chunmei is involved with is not just a few thousand or tens of thousands in money.

If Li Ye were to say right now that the Li family would be worth hundreds of millions in the future, everyone would think he was possessed, but actually... sigh...

Spending a few coins to make a clean break—worth it!

If he didn't cut ties now, the family's money would reach hundreds of thousands this year; time waits for no one!

【Five hundred? Are you dismissing a beggar?】

Han Han Lao Han was trembling, clearly furious, but he couldn't bring himself to step over the Li family's threshold.

Meanwhile, Han Chunmei took advantage of the darkness to lean behind Li Ye and whispered anxiously: "Little Ye, five hundred is too much; three hundred is plenty."

Her salary as a temporary worker was only twenty-two point five yuan; five hundred yuan would take several years to save.
