Chapter 34 The fight started again

Except for Liu Hongying and Liu Laohei who had suffered in the countryside, Liu Hongshan and Liu Honghe had never experienced such a hard life since they grew up.

After eating corn tortillas for two or three days, Liu Honghe looked very unhappy. "I can't take it anymore. Can you try something different?"

"Corn flour is the cheapest. When sweet potatoes are available in a few months, we can also exchange them for you." Liu Hongying comforted her, "This is the situation at home right now. It's good enough to fill our stomachs. Don't be picky."

Liu Honghe couldn't help but complain, "The things you made filled my stomach at the time, but I got hungry quickly, and no matter how much I ate, I couldn't resist the hunger."

"Be patient for now. Wait until you get your salary next month and then you can buy meat." Liu Hongshan quickly comforted her.

"I'm paying you back, so of course you want me to endure it."

"What do you mean by paying me back? This is what you should do. If you hadn't insisted on taking over dad's job, would our family have to live in such a tight situation?"

The two men had always felt that Liu Laohei was biased and were dissatisfied with him, so they started arguing as soon as they disagreed.

Liu Laohei had a cold face and slammed the bowl on the table. "Just eat. Why are you arguing? If you keep arguing, get out of here."

He used to be the mainstay of the family, and when he got angry, the children in the family would shrink their necks. But now that he is retired, his words are not so useful anymore.

Liu Honghe felt that he had suffered a great loss and did not give Liu Laohei any face. He snorted and pocketed his portion of tortilla to leave.

"Stop right there!" Liu Laohei clapped his chopsticks and stood up.

"Didn't you tell me to get out? Am I already getting out?"

Liu Honghe still had an impatient expression, which made Liu Laohei unable to suppress his anger.

"You bastard, I've been putting up with you for a long time. You started making trouble after the New Year and have been making trouble until now. You've already stayed in the city, can't you just calm down?"

"What do you mean by making a fuss? I'm fighting for myself." Liu Honghe sneered and asked, "If I don't take the initiative, will you make plans for me?"

Liu Honghe knew the answer without Liu Laohei's answer.

The crying child gets the milk. If he doesn't cry or make a fuss, he will have to go to the countryside to suffer, and there is no way he can stay in the city as a worker.

He felt that this job was something he had fought for and that he deserved it.

Liu Laohei has a bit of a fatherly heart, but not much. He gave up his job because he was afraid of trouble. But no matter what he thinks, since he gave up his job, Liu Honghe should be grateful and respect him, instead of disobeying him and bullying him with words.

Liu Laohei clenched his fists, walked to Liu Honghe in three or two steps, knocked him to the ground with one punch, and then pressed him down and beat him hard.

"I'll beat you to death for being so disobedient. Today I'm going to let you know who is the father."

Liu Honghe resisted fiercely, broke free from Liu Laohei's restraints and tried to run away, but Liu Laohei grabbed him again, forcing Liu Honghe to fight back, and landed his fist on Liu Laohei, knocking Liu Laohei off balance.

"Little brother, how could you lay hands on Dad?"

After Liu Hongshan finished his condemnation, he immediately came over to help Liu Laohei.

He had wanted to beat Liu Honghe for a long time. Liu Honghe had been too mean during this period.

Now I finally found the opportunity.

With two against one, Liu Honghe had no strength to resist at all. He was beaten so hard that his whole body was in pain and he quickly shouted for help.

"Help! Someone's been beaten to death."

When the people in the yard heard the noise, they immediately ran over to stop the fight.

Everyone gasped when they saw the wound on Liu Honghe's face.

Hu Meili couldn't help but say, "I have lived with Liu Laohei for more than ten years. Except for the last time we divorced, I have never seen him hit anyone. It seems that even honest people can be pushed to the limit."

Everyone in the yard was trying to persuade Liu Laohei, but Lin Xiangnan happily ran to Liu Honghe and asked with concern, "Did they do it because they couldn't convince you?"

The two families were separated by a wall, so normal conversation could not be heard, but Lin Xiangnan heard most of the noise of the quarrel.

She didn't care about right or wrong, she just comforted him: "In this world, it's not the one with the bigger fist who is right."

"You're right." Liu Honghe wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth viciously.

"Alas, Uncle Liu, there is nothing we can do about it. He is not like before. In the past, he could rely on money to establish his authority in the family, but now he can only rely on his fists. You'd better be more obedient in the future, otherwise he will beat you again next time."

Liu Honghe was originally a little confused about the beating he received, but after hearing what Lin Xiangnan said, he understood.

Right or wrong is secondary. The most important thing is not to lose face for Liu Laohei, the head of the family.

Doesn't this rounding mean that he is not wrong?

That beating he received was really frustrating.

Seeing Liu Honghe's expression change, Lin Xiangnan couldn't help but laugh and asked, "I didn't expect that you would actually dare to leave when Uncle Liu told you to leave? Did you apply for a dormitory at the factory? You don't plan to eat at home? Do you want to eat in the cafeteria?"

The factory dormitories have high and low iron beds for ten people. The conditions are definitely not as good as at home, but living in the factory and eating in the cafeteria means you don’t have to deal with the troubles at home.

Eating at home would save money, but the money saved would not go into Liu Honghe's pocket, so he made up his mind immediately.

"I'll apply to my supervisor when I return to the factory this afternoon."

Liu Hongying was quietly cleaning up the dishes. When she heard Liu Honghe's voice, she couldn't help but look over here.

But as soon as her eyes met Lin Xiangnan's, she looked away guiltily.

She knew she was in the wrong regarding Zhao Qi's matter, so even though they lived in the same courtyard, she took the initiative to avoid Lin Xiangnan and Hu Meili to avoid getting into trouble.

But while avoiding him, she would ask other people in the hospital about the blind date that Lin Xiangnan had recently met.

In this courtyard, Lin Xiangnan is the only one who is eager to get married, and the men who get close to Lin Xiangnan all have good family conditions, much better than those little hooligans who are pestering her.

She had no job and had to hide from the little hooligans on the street. She stayed at home most of the time. There were few men she could come into contact with. The only source of high-quality men was Lin Xiangnan.

Not every man is like Zhao Qi, who has a powerful mother who is willing to spend money. She doesn't believe that she will fail again next time.

Because she had other ideas about Lin Xiangnan, Liu Hongying actually wanted to repair her relationship with Lin Xiangnan, but Lin Xiangnan sneered every time he saw her, which made her dare not move forward.

The first time Lin Xiangnan was plotted against was because he was caught off guard and he did not expect such a thing to happen to him.

Lin Xiangnan saw everything Liu Hongying did afterwards and felt very disgusted.

The other party only had a moral problem, and she couldn't do anything to Liu Hongying. But she could fan the flames when something happened to the Liu family.

The Liu family had a hard time, and Liu Hongying was not having any good time either.
