Chapter 1141: Are You Going to Settle Accounts with Me Later?

Zheng Dagui shouted and rushed into the forest. Zheng Xinyue was stunned when she saw her father suddenly appear. Didn’t he go back?

The Li family panicked when they saw Zheng Dagui. Jiang Shuzhen was even trembling with fear. She was not afraid of Zheng Dagui, but she was afraid that he would call Gao Guilan.

If Gao Guilan knew that she had coaxed Zheng Xinyue to steal food behind her back, she would definitely not let her go. It didn’t matter if she was beaten, but she was afraid that the food she got would be taken back. This was the hope for the family to survive.

"In-laws? Xinyue? Are you there?"

Zheng Dagui was waiting for his daughter outside the forest, but suddenly found someone hiding in the forest outside the village entrance. He was worried that Xinyue might get into trouble, so he rushed over to check. Unexpectedly, the Li family who had already left and the daughter who said she was going to the toilet were in the woods. When his eyes fell on the bag of food on the ground, he immediately understood.

Zheng Xinyue bit her lip and looked at her father guiltily. It seemed that her father had been waiting for her outside the forest!

"My dear, we really can't live any longer!"

Jiang Shuzhen's legs became weak, she slid to the ground and knelt while crying. She would kneel until dawn as long as she could take the food away.

"My dear mother, what are you doing? Xinyue, help your aunt up."

Zheng Dagui was a conservative man. When he saw Jiang Shuzhen kneeling down, he quickly stepped aside and called his daughter to help Jiang Shuzhen.

Zheng Xinyue went to help Jiang Shuzhen, but she refused to get up no matter what she said. She put her hands together and cried for Zheng Dagui.

"My dear, we really can't live any longer. Please be kind and save our family!"

"My dear mother, if you have anything to say, let's get up and talk!"

Zheng Dagui frowned and ordered Jiang Shuzhen in a deep voice. They were of the same generation and he couldn't bear the kneeling of his mother-in-law. Seeing that Jiang Shuzhen was almost out of breath from crying, he sighed and said:

"My dear, if you have any difficulties, just come to me directly, don't look for the children! We have food to eat, and we can't watch your family starve to death!"

Li Xiuli's father understood. Zheng Dagui didn't mention taking the food back, and he immediately pulled his wife up happily. In this heavy snow, kneeling for a long time will make you sick.

"Old woman, get up quickly. My in-laws are sensible people! They won't just watch us starve to death."

"Mother-in-law, take these grains back first. If the relief grains don't come down by the end of the year, I'll ask Cheng Hu to send you some more. I won't just watch you starve to death. After all, we are a family!"

Zheng Da Kui sighed. If it was an outsider, he wouldn't care. In this era, everyone can't protect themselves. It's the children and wives who suffer when they are kind. But this is a real in-law, how can he bear to ignore it.

"My in-laws, you are a living Bodhisattva, the lifesaver of our family! I kowtow to you."

Jiang Shuzhen had just stood up with the help of her husband. When she heard Zheng Da Kui's words, she immediately knelt on the ground.

"Mother-in-law, if you do this again, I will take the things back!"

Zheng Da Kui's face turned black. Why can't he pull himself up and kneel?

"Hey, hey, I won't kneel anymore. These grains are considered as loans from our family. We will return them when the harvest comes next year."

Jiang Shuzhen stood up while wiping her tears, feeling that she had judged others by her own standards.

"If you have any difficulties in the future, just come to me directly. Don't make things difficult for the children!"

Zheng Dagui looked at Li Xiuli's father with a serious face. He liked people who were upright and honest, and hated those who stabbed behind his back, especially those who took advantage of Xinyue's kindness.

"I know!"

Li Xiuli's father nodded with an embarrassed look. It was indeed wrong for them to do this.

After sending the Li family away, Zheng Xinyue followed her father to the village. Zheng Xinyue secretly looked at her father and found that he looked gloomy. She felt a little unsure. Was he going to settle accounts with her later?
