Chapter 1611 Liu Dalan refuses to leave
Tiezhu was stubborn. "Uncle, there are so many people living in the mansion. My mother is greedy. Even if her leg is healed, she won't think anything good of me. If she continues to stay in the mansion, not only will she cause trouble to my uncle, but she will also make a fool of herself."
Cheng Feng disagreed. His eldest brother and his family had come thousands of miles to seek refuge with him, and he couldn't bear to send them away within ten days. Although his eldest brother was a bit of a jerk, he had also grown up under his eldest brother's nose. "No, your mother's legs are still not very mobile. How can I feel at ease if they move out like this?"
"Uncle, my mother will definitely cause trouble for you in the future. She will bother you a lot. I must take them out of the palace, otherwise I will not be interested in the things happening in the business." Cheng Tiezhu insisted on moving out, and if Cheng Feng didn't agree, he would kneel down in front of Cheng Feng.
Cheng Feng was in a dilemma. If he didn't agree, Tiezhu would be unable to get up, but if he agreed, he would feel guilty.
Cheng Feng put his hand on his waist, making a clattering sound. He fumbled around for a while and took out a key. "My uncle has an unused small courtyard house. If you don't mind, you can take your parents and the others to live there."
"this?"
Cheng Feng pulled Tie Zhu up, put the key into his hand, and patted his hand. "If you don't go and live here, your uncle can't let your parents move out."
Cheng Tiezhu's eyelids turned red, and he knelt on the ground again, kowtowed to Cheng Feng several times. Cheng Feng pulled him up again and said, "Let your parents stay in my house for a few more days."
Cheng Tiezhu wiped his eyes again and again, "We'll move today."
Cheng Feng looked at the street. People were coming and going, so dense that the sunlight reflected off their bodies. "Why are you moving in the middle of the day?"
"There wasn't much, just a few people. Once they left, the family moved."
"Well, if I can't keep you here, then I won't. I'll go back with you to see your parents off." Cheng Feng looked at Yuhua again, "Go outside the city and call Shang Xi back."
Outside the north city, Shang Xi, wearing a straw hat and holding a stack of blueprints in his hand, walked back and forth among a group of men, busy as a whirlwind.
Yuhua looked at the rows of foundations rising from the ground and praised them highly, "Shang Xi, this is too fast. Didn't they just start construction the day before yesterday? How come the foundations are already laid?"
Shang Xi was covered in dust and dirt, and looked much darker than a few months ago. His voice was also particularly hoarse, and it was obvious that he had been talking too much. "As long as the work starts, the job will be done quickly. What brought you here? Did something new happen at home?"
Yuhua said with a beaming expression, "It's indeed something new. Liu Dalan is causing trouble again. But thanks to her for causing trouble, otherwise there wouldn't be any good things that happened later."
"Oh! With Liu Dalan around, what good can happen?" Shang Xi shook her head in disgust.
"It's really good news. Let me tell you, they'll be moving out soon? Cheng Feng asked me to call you home."
What an unexpected surprise! Shang Xi took off her straw hat. This was good news for everyone. "Where are we moving to? Don't you have a place to live?"
"Cheng Feng said that your family has a small courtyard house that is unused and you gave it to them to live in. Oh? Where is your courtyard house? When did you buy it? I don't know."
Shang Xi put the hat back on his head and said, "Are you stupid? How could our family get a courtyard house? Cheng Feng must have heard that his eldest brother and his family came to beg for alms, so he secretly bought it for us. Let's go, let's not talk about this, let's go back and take a look."
After getting on the carriage, Yi Yuhua urged the driver to go faster, as she was afraid that if she returned too late she would miss the Cheng family's move.
Shang Xi smiled disdainfully, "Why rush? If Liu Dalan doesn't see the benefits, she can leave. But if she does, whether she will leave or not is another matter."
Yuhua thought about what Liu Dalan had said. Who was Liu Dalan? He could stir up trouble even when lying in bed. How could he bear to leave the palace? What Shang Xi said was true.
When Shang Xi returned to the palace, Liu Dalan was making a fuss on the bed. Her hands were tightly holding the bed board, and she refused to leave the bed.
She was making such a loud noise that Liu Dalan's voice could be heard across the yard. Shang Xi strode in. She wanted to see how Liu Dalan could stay in her house and not leave.
Cheng Feng and Cheng Lao Da sat upright on the chairs, while He Bao stood leaning against the bed with a crooked mouth, looking very dissatisfied.
Cheng Tiezhu was pulling Liu Dalan's arm on the bed, while Su Aixiu was standing aside at a loss, holding the child. There were several packages piled in a corner of the floor. It seemed that everything had been packed up, just waiting for Cheng Tiezhu to be helped off the bed.
Shang Xi decided to help Cheng Tiezhu, so she walked to the bedside with a smile, looked at Liu Dalan who was letting the blame go, and said with a smile: "Sister-in-law is really brave. She was beaten crippled by big brother, and she is stronger than Tiezhu."
Liu Dalan glared at Shang Xi, "Stop talking nonsense in front of me. No one can make me leave here."
Shang Xi came back to see her off because she was leaving today. Otherwise, would Shang Xi come here to take another look at her? What a scoundrel!
"Sister-in-law, I don't think there's any need for someone like you to lie here. I saw a job posting on the street today. The kiln factory is looking for kiln workers, the weaving workshop is looking for weavers, and the tobacco factory is looking for cigarette makers. With your extraordinary physique and vigorous energy, you're most suitable to be a kiln worker in a brick kiln. Go to the brick kiln outside the north city. They're firing bricks day and night, and they're very short of manpower. I'll use my connections to find someone for you and ask the foreman to give you three copper coins a day. What do you think?"
"Pah, who cares about three copper coins?"
Shang Xi dodged quickly and avoided Liu Dalan's foul spit.
"Mom, why are you like this? You eat and wear my uncle and aunt's clothes. Why do you treat my uncle and aunt like this?" Tiezhu's face flushed red with shame at his mother's actions. He was too embarrassed to face his uncle and aunt. "Aunt, are you okay?"
Shang Xi shook her head, neither angry nor annoyed. She gestured for Tiezhu to stand aside, and then she stood at the head of the bed.
She looked down at the monster-like, evil woman before her, as if she were a piece of trash about to be swept out. "Sister-in-law, I'm not saying anything bad about you, but you lazy bastard, you should go out and find something to do. Look at how your children have been tortured by you. Tiezhu is in the shop, running the business, while you're at home instigating Hebao to block Heye's gate. Heye is truly in trouble for having such an unscrupulous and immoral mother like you."
Liu Dalan stared at Shang Xi fiercely, her eyes wider than a cow's. Shang Xi knew that if Cheng Feng hadn't been sitting there, Liu Dalan would not just spit at her, she would jump up and beat her mercilessly. At this moment, she could only roar at her, "You stinking fool, stay out of my family's business. He Ye is my daughter, I can do whatever I want!"
