Chapter 79: Pretending to be stupid
In the old house of Xue’s family, smoke rose and the wives were busy cooking.
Not long after, three pots of vegetables, two pots of noodles and a large pot of porridge were placed on the table.
A family of more than a dozen people gathered around two tables, and everyone didn't say anything, and it seemed very quiet.
Ah Dai sat quietly and calmly. It was time to let all this come to an end today.
The eldest daughter-in-law coughed lightly, breaking the silence. A Dai brows moved and knew that he was coming.
The eldest daughter-in-law smiled and said to Ah Dai, "Ah Dai, how have you practiced with Master Ling in the mountains in the past eight years?"
A Dai smiled and said, "Thank you for your concern. A Dai has gained a lot in the practice of the mountains over the years. Recently, the master said that I am no longer able to be more refined in the mountains. A Dai is going down the mountain and is preparing to take the immortal exam."
The eldest daughter-in-law sneered, "Ah Dai, lying is not a good child. You have to tell the truth to the aunt. Have you taken the fairy exam every eight years, but failed the exam?"
"Your mother is afraid of being embarrassed, so she asked you to tell lies and deceive people. She said that she had been practicing in the mountains for eight years, right?"
A Dai narrowed his eyes slightly and smiled, "Auntie is really good at joking. If A Dai hadn't known that you were my aunt and knew you were joking with me, would I think you were going to slander me again?"
"Master Lu told me that there are gods three feet tall, and the gods are watching every move of human beings. If anyone has bad intentions and does bad things, the gods will remember them. When the time comes, the gods will punish them. Auntie, Ah Dai told you that those who are struck by lightning are all people who do bad things."
The eldest daughter-in-law's face changed when she heard this. She heard Xiaotao talk about the magic of Master Lu. They all believed in Master Lu's words. She naturally believed in Master Lu's words, but who knew if Master Lu said that, but the eldest daughter-in-law also felt that she would rather believe it than not.
The eldest daughter-in-law snorted coldly, "No matter what, eight years have passed now, and eight years have not even passed the exam, and there will be no future."
"The immortal exam is about to be held again. For the sake of the Xue family, we must do our best this time. The spirit stones at home should be concentrated to cultivate hopeful people. Mom, do you think your daughter-in-law is right?"
Zhao nodded, "Well, everyone is very reasonable. The Immortal Examination is a big event for the Xue family, especially this year, which only takes one big exam every three years. You must do your best to give the spirit stone to those who hope to pass the exam. The Xue family may be able to produce a feathered man or even a layman."
Xue's mother sat there An Rushan, watching the two of them acting, but she just refused to respond.
The business has been in business for eight years, and the ups and downs have been going on in eight years. I have never seen anyone or experienced anything. How could Zhao and his eldest daughter-in-law escape her eyes?
Seeing that Xue's mother was silent, Zhao suddenly felt powerful and had nowhere to use it. Then he looked at the eldest daughter-in-law and coughed lightly.
The eldest daughter-in-law nodded and turned to Xue's mother, "From the second family, do you think my mother's words are right?"
Xue's mother didn't say anything when she heard this, as if she didn't hear it. The eldest daughter-in-law raised her voice, "From the second family, I'm talking to you."
Then Xue's mother looked at the eldest daughter-in-law in a daze and said, "Ah, sister-in-law, what did you say just now?"
"Hey, I got up early and went to bed late these years and got deaf. I went to see the doctor. The doctor said that I would like to cure twenty low-grade spirit stones. But sister-in-law, you know that I don't have spirit stones, so I can only drag it like this. By the way, sister-in-law, what did you say just now, I didn't hear clearly?"
Xue Xiaoying, who was standing beside him, pulled the corner of Ah Dai's clothes and whispered, "Brother, yesterday we both muttered quietly and heard it clearly and taught us a lesson. Why are you deaf today?"
A Dai said softly, "Don't talk, just look."
"Oh." Xue Xiaoying pouted and watched from the side.
The eldest daughter-in-law rolled her eyes and said in her heart, "Dear, who are you lying to? Even if you are really deaf, you should still get the spirit stone."
The eldest daughter-in-law shouted, "From the second family, I said, what I said just now is right?"
When Xue's mother heard this, she looked at the eldest daughter-in-law blankly, "Oh, sister-in-law, you said just now, what did you say?"
The eldest daughter-in-law was very angry when she heard this and shouted, "My mother just said that the spirit stones at home should be concentrated to cultivate immortals for those who are most likely to pass the imperial examination. I ask you, do you agree with my mother's meaning."
Xue's mother pulled her ears and shouted loudly, "What did you say?"
"Hey, this ear is really not effective at the same time. Now I can't hear it again. Sister-in-law, I didn't hear it clearly just now. You say it again."
The eldest daughter-in-law said angrily, "From the second family, just pretend. The morning is fine, but now I can't hear it. What are you lying?"
"What? What do you say, everyone?" Xue's mother was acting, laughing in her heart, "Even if you know I'm pretending, I just don't answer this. I think you should do what you should do with me?"
"If you want me to produce a spirit stone, don't even think about it."
"This trick is really useful. No wonder that little brat likes to pretend to be stupid."
The eldest daughter-in-law was very angry. She expected that Xue's mother might argue with her, but she didn't expect that Xue's mother just refused to respond.
However, her eyes turned and her eyes stopped on Xue's father. Seeing this, Xue's mother secretly screamed that she was not good.
The eldest daughter-in-law smiled at Xue's father, "Second brother, my mother said to concentrate on spiritual stones to support people with hope. What do you think my mother is saying?"
Xue's father was not stupid, so he didn't know what the eldest daughter-in-law meant, just to ask his family to produce spirit stones. He also knew that his mother didn't want to give them, but he was from the Xue family after all, and the family's income in recent years was pretty good, so it would be fine if he took out a little spirit stone.
At that moment, Xue's father was about to speak, and Xue's mother was already in the forefront, "Sister-in-law, in the past eight years, my family has handed over fifteen low-grade spirit stones every month. Now it counts at least more than 1,500 low-grade spirit stones. Isn't these spirit stones enough for Lao San and Xiao Tao to take the immortal exam?"
"Also, eight years ago, I had signed a contract with my mother, and the Xue family could no longer ask us for spirit stones for any reason."
The eldest daughter-in-law sneered when she heard this, "Old family, aren't your ears deaf? Why aren't you deaf now?"
At this time, Ah Dai walked behind her mother Xue, rubbed her ears for her mother, and said with a smile, "Mom, are your ears better?"
When Xue's mother heard this, she was slightly stunned, and she was happy, and said in her heart that my son is so smart and understanding.
Xue's mother smiled and said, "Mom is much better. Didn't you hear what your aunt said just now?"
After saying that, Xue's mother looked at the eldest daughter-in-law and said, "It will be better if my son has the technique to help me with massage."
