    "I am so old, you are my son, you have to support me."

    "Dad, I didn't say I won't support you. You see, my place is so small and I have so many children. You suddenly said to move here. You have to let me clean it up."

    "What are you packing, I'll help you clean it up." Li Yongsheng picked up the back basket and began to pick up the sweet potatoes on the kang, as if he was crazy.  Then, without allowing Li Changqing to speak, he threw the back basket and sweet potatoes outside.  Li Changqing is a filial son, this is a well-known fact in the village, and it is a fact that Yang Yi is well aware of.  As his pillow person, Yang Yi knew Li Changqing too well.  Although he is blindly filial to his parents, although he doesn't know how to pay attention to methods when he works, more often he just works recklessly.  But his perseverance, his kindness from the bottom of his heart, perhaps the most simple things, are what attracted her. With these, it seems that there is enough reason to go with her to live this hard life with hope.  .  So at this moment, Li Changqing was so wronged that he wanted to cry and yell, but he still held back when facing his elderly father.

    "Dad." He helplessly pressed Li Yongsheng's hand.

    Li Yongsheng was still touched by this "Dad".  Farmers don't talk about their feelings. Their biggest problem is food and clothing, and food and clothing are all their feelings.  However, if he doesn't talk about feelings, he is a human after all, and a human is an emotional animal after all.  Li Yongsheng heard the helplessness, pleading, and helplessness in his son's "Dad".  He finally let go.  In fact, Li Yongsheng was not such an unreasonable and emotionless person, he was also forced to do nothing.  He and Xu Jinhua live together, although many major events are decided by themselves, but Xu Jinhua is always in control of everything in many life matters.  And Xu Jinhua is a person without doctrine, she will believe whatever others instigate, the most important thing is Xu Jinhua's strong patriarchal thought, this stubborn spirit is deeply rooted in her bones, no matter what he says by the side, it won't work  .  He was not willing to come to the second son's house to make such a fuss this time, but if he didn't come, Xu Jinhua would definitely make trouble with him when he returned home, so he was also in a dilemma.  Besides, these four daughters-in-law are now determined to drive the old couple out, and it is really uncomfortable for him to suffer under that roof every day.  He knew in his heart that he was sorry for his second son. Since his other brothers had all gone to school since childhood, he was the first to drop out of school to make money to support the family. Didn't the other three sons have half of the credit for their houses?  Especially the youngest son's house is a difficult problem for the old couple to solve with the money he added after he got married. To be honest, from the perspective of being a father, he really feels ashamed of this son.  I thought it would be the best for the fourth son. It was a brand new house with wing rooms. The other sons were all broken, especially when Li Changqing¡¯s family suffered so much damage during the family planning year. Now the house is leaking.  Yes, it needs to be repaired every year.  He thought that the fourth son would stay with him for two more years for the sake of buying such a good house for him. He didn't expect that the little grandson had just learned to walk, and the wife here would not be able to tolerate the two of them.  Show them face and force them to come out of that house.  What's even more unreasonable is that Xu Jinhua insisted on starting to live with his second son Li Changqing, saying that this place is close enough to move.  In fact, Li Yongsheng knew that Xu Jinhua was no more than the four daughters-in-law, and she was obviously partial to the other sons, because every family had grandchildren, but the second son's family did not.

    "Brother, what are you doing? You guys belong to your father and your son. You have seen this second child. It's not like he doesn't want to keep you. Look at this kang, he just built it, and he didn't even do it.  , where do you two come to sleep? Sleep in Westinghouse? Where do you let this big family sleep?" The third uncle next door couldn't bear to hear such a commotion.  Anyone with a discerning eye in the village knows the gossip about that family.  When the women get together in their free time, they are all threading needles and threads to make shoes, gossiping about the things in the ten miles and eight villages, listening to new stories, and telling them to their men when they return home at night.  Speak, look at other people's jokes, let yourself feel comforted by your suffering.  They really need reassurance. Years of mechanical heavy work have left their bodies in a state of fatigue, as if they never got real rest.  Because poverty, hunger, and hard work bring desolation and confusion in the spiritual world, they can't see the future, and sometimes they feel that such a repetitive life day after day is boring. Most couples in rural areas have completed childbirth and reproduction  It is rare to have a normal married life after the responsibility of the couple.  One is that the rural areas are very poor, and basically they have to live across from their parents-in-law, and some people in this house don¡¯t even have a door, only a broken curtain, which is always inconvenient; second, the heavy life makes them have no time at all.  Live a married life with Lili.  Then the freshness of the newly married years faded quickly, and the rest were ordinary and trivial days, which made them breathless. In addition, their normal physiological demands were not satisfied, and they soon became like rural women who had been married for many years.  the sameson.  Nagging, arguing with her husband, beating and scolding the child to vent her anger, yelling, as if to let the whole world know that she is the most wronged person in the world.  Gossip is the only joy in their lives, and it seems that they can comfort their own pain with the pain of others.

    When Li Yongsheng was having a commotion at his son's house, the neighbors nearby all came over to watch the commotion.  People in this season have nothing to do, the weather is hot, and the work in the field is only done in the evening.  Although it was sleepy in summer, they basically had enough rest at this time, and they just needed something fun to fill up the blank time between now and going to work in the field.  Most of the people were watching the fun, and of course there were also kind-hearted people who came to help and say a few words of justice.  For example, Uncle San.

    "I don't care, I'm an old bone, I have to have a place to live. I built a house for him and married a wife. Is it possible that he doesn't care about me when I'm old?" When Li Yongsheng said this  , I was trembling, speaking so powerlessly, I didn't even dare to look up at the faces of my son and third uncle.

    "Brother, if you say that, I have to say a few words about you. When did this second son say he won't support you anymore? Let's not talk about anything else, who in this Qingxi village can match your second son's filial piety. I  Everyone in the neighborhood knows that these two couples helped your old couple build a house for other sons to marry a wife. Don¡¯t you look at how difficult it is for them. It¡¯s easy for you to support these four children, but you still come here to make trouble.  Besides, I'm not a good-sounding person, and I'm nosy, so I have to tell you if you hate me. Take a step back and say, if you talk about pensions, you have to start with the boss, why don't you just come straight to the second son's house  It's making a fuss." The third uncle really couldn't see the actions of the old couple, although they all said that they lived their own lives behind closed doors and should not meddle in other people's business, but he couldn't see this behavior from the bottom of his heart.

    "Forget it, third uncle, don't talk about it. The two of us deserve others. When we were suffering, no one helped us. Now, we have helped others, and now we are still here to insert our hearts  One knife. You all come, all of you come to live in our house, we can¡¯t live in the east house, so I¡¯ll give you the west house, and our mothers can live in the pigsty. I¡¯ll give it all to you.¡± Yang Yi was so angry that she lost her sense of proportion.  She was born to be strong in everything, and now she is not only bullied, but also laughed at by so many neighbors, she really hates having such unreasonable parents-in-law.

    Li Yongsheng was speechless, and could only keep emphasizing that sentence that could not be refuted.

    "I am his father and he is my son. I am old and he has to support me."

    Li Changqing was finally driven into a hurry. He never regretted everything he did for this family. They are a family. He made money to help his brothers build a house and marry a wife. Even after he got married, he gave money to his mother for many years.  If I didn't give it to Yang Yi, why would I be unfilial?

    "Dad, are you right for saying that? I'm working so hard every day, I don't ask you to help me, now you have to drive me out of this house, are you comfortable? When I ran away, no one  Help me, my house is still leaking every day, and my family can¡¯t let go of the kang I just made, do you insist on letting me sleep in the pigsty?¡± Li Changqing¡¯s insistence finally made Li Yongsheng and his wife retreat, Xu Jinhua pulled  He scolded his son for being "unconscionable" and left, and Li Yongsheng could only leave behind.  The third uncle went back to eat after seeing him. After all, it was someone else's business, and it was not good to meddle too much.

    The people who watched the excitement have also dispersed, probably before today, everyone in the village will know that a father-son farce happened here. As for what kind of vivid story it is, I don¡¯t know which side those eccentric people will lean towards.  Go to "Legends".  Only this family is still guarding the leaky house, full of grievances that have nowhere to vent, and they can only swallow it in their hearts.  (Remember the site URL: www.hlnovel.com
