Joyful Motherhood in a Rural Family

Chapter 255: 253: Shameless Old Man Li, Mighty Miao Cuihua

Meanwhile, Ying’er and Xuan’er had already taken the opportunity to run off to play with their new gloves.

“Hey! Although you can’t make clothes, you can read and write, and even be a role model for others. You can be a female tutor for Miss Gan. Miss Gan is a genuine noble miss, not one of those random people.” Guihua said with a face full of pride.

Guihua’s words immediately resonated with everyone.

“Isn’t that so! Being a female tutor for Miss Gan is no ordinary task. Third Son Di’s wife, you’ve finally made it.”

“That’s right. Last time, I said I wanted my Niuniu to learn from you, but I’ve seen no progress. When will you start your private school?”

“Count my family’s Lotus too! She can at least recognize a few characters, so she doesn’t become an uneducated woman in the future.”

“Yes, yes, yes, when will you start, Third Son Di’s wife?”

With everyone talking at the same time, Liu Sisi couldn’t get a word in edgewise. Finally finding a brief moment of respite, she managed to divulge her plans.

“Actually, all of you have misunderstood. Sisi only knows a few more characters than you. Winter is coming, and if you all think highly of me, Liu Sisi, I will begin enrolling students, limited to girls only, aged between ten and fifteen years old. As for the education gift, you can follow the private school standard and give whatever you feel is appropriate.”

After saying this, her eyes swept over the faces of the crowd.

The local private schools typically charge ten strips of bacon a year, four seasons of clothing for the teacher, and one tael of silver per month.

Although Liu Sisi said “whatever you feel is appropriate,” her meaning was clear—it couldn’t be much less than the standard.

As soon as she finished speaking, the faces of the people around her soured.

It’s just one girl, and if they could send their daughters to learn a few characters at the cost of only three or five pounds of rice or noodles, they would happily use this opportunity during their free time in the farming season.

But private school tuition is expensive. Many people can’t even afford to send their sons to school, let alone their daughters.

“Hahaha! Listen, everyone, someone wants silver so badly that they’re here scamming us for food and drink. Don’t believe her!”

Suddenly, a piercing voice from the side attracted everyone’s attention.

Even if others had the same idea, they would keep their thoughts to themselves and only confide in others in private. Who would be so bold as to say it out loud?

But the newcomer didn’t seem to think that way, and seemed to want everyone to hear it. He shouted loudly, attracting the attention of everyone around.

Liu Sisi turned her head to see who it was and immediately burst into laughter!

“Old Man Li! You’ve been trying to discredit me every two or three days but considering that you’re alone and an old man taking care of a young man, I’ve been letting it go. But today you’re coming over of your own accord, do you not even want to save face?”

If it were someone else, it might be more justifiable. But Old Man Li…he’s simply not a good person!

Liu Sisi’s words made the surrounding people laugh as well!

“Hey! Old Man Li! Last time, it was rumored that you found a pretty daughter-in-law to have a child for you, but there’s still no news about it now. Is it because your ‘thing’ doesn’t work anymore?”

The one shouting was none other than the plump Miao Cuihua.

Miao Cuihua was fat and tall, standing even slightly taller than the big Di Yelei. But she happened to have married a skinny and short husband.

Miao Cuihua could easily lift him with one hand.

Her shouting immediately caused everyone around to burst into laughter, and they all started teasing.

“Old Man Li, could it be that your thing really doesn’t work anymore?”

“Why don’t you ask someone else to help you? Hahaha…”

“Old Man Li, I heard Zhang Peng has some good medicine, you might want to… hehehe, give it a try!”

Everyone started laughing at the jokes, and the young wives and daughters blushed, covering their faces with their hands and keeping their heads down, not saying a word.

On the contrary, Old Man Li scanned the crowd, put his hands behind his back, and proudly straightened his thin body.

“If you want to know if I, Old Man Li, can do it, maybe you can call your daughters-in-law over and let me, Old Man Li, give it a try! Let’s see if Old Man Li is capable or not, if I can handle it! Hehe…”

With that remark, they were all instantly outraged! Everyone started cursing angrily.

“Old Man Li, you’re truly worthless! You deserve to have no descendants and die alone!”

“That’s right, Big Mouth Li wasn’t a good person to begin with, neither is Old Man Li.”

“Like father, like son, both rotten to the core, head oozing pus and feet covered in sores, there’s not a single good thing about them!”

“They’re just shameless…”

It seems that everyone’s curses fell on deaf ears to Old Man Li, who continued to hold his head high, completely unfazed.

However, in the next moment, a large hand suddenly landed on his shoulder, causing the smug look to freeze on his face.

“Hey! Old Man Li! Repeat what you just said, hmm?”

The owner of the large hand on his shoulder was none other than Miao Cuihua!

Old Man Li’s facial muscles twitched, and in the next moment, his body slowly left the ground, lifted up by the owner of the large hand and suspended in mid-air.

He instinctively struggled, but found himself facing Miao Cuihua’s snarling face.

“No… let me down quick! I… I’m scared of heights! I’m dizzy, I’m dizzy, I’m dizzy…”

After a few more words, his limbs went limp and his head drooped, not moving at all.

“Hey! Hey! Old Man Li, don’t you dare pretend to be dead, believe it or not, if I slap you twice you’ll be dead for real!”

Miao Cuihua roared like a clap of thunder at Old Man Li’s ear, and he could no longer pretend, covering his ears and begging for mercy.

“My dear little lady, I swear I didn’t say anything! I swear on my life!”

Old Man Li swore, constantly struggling to get down.

Dangling from Miao Cuihua’s hand, the unsteady Old Man Li looked like a black cloth bag, prompting Guihua, who was standing nearby, to pinch Liu Sisi’s arm gently and point to a certain spot for her to look at.

Liu Sisi followed Guihua’s direction and immediately covered her mouth to laugh.

There was a large patch of wetness in the center of Old Man Li’s crotch!

In fact, some of it was even dripping down his trouser leg.

The other people nearby seemed to have noticed this as well, pointing and laughing out loud.

“Oh my! That’s a man in his forties still wetting his pants, tsk tsk… hurry up and tuck your tail and scram!”

Her wrist was sore after holding onto Old Man Li for so long, and seeing him like this, Miao Cuihua tossed him to the ground.
