Sigh, storybooks are full of ungrateful wretches.
[Let's count, we've encountered four in total, plus Jiang Zuoque, that makes five.]
The production speed and quality are top-notch.
“Eldest brother, fourth brother is my and your father’s son, he’s not an outsider.”
The word "outsider" struck a nerve with Old Mrs. Li, and her tears fell even more profusely.
"Yes, I know. Li Laosi is your son, but he doesn't want you and chose to marry into your family."
Li Laoda is good at hurting people's feelings, but he's even better at delivering the final blow.
It's so enjoyable to watch, especially the stories of Li Lao Er and Zhao Da Hua.
Exactly! What's an outsider doing coming home? He doesn't even act like a guest. This is his second wife's territory, not Li Laosi's.
"Fourth brother, does your wife know you're going home this time?"
Upon hearing Zhao Dahua's words, Li Laosi trembled, and Li Laotai immediately criticized Zhao Dahua.
"Zhao Dahua, shut up! This is none of your business to speak."
"Bang"
He slammed his hand on the table; even Li Yiyi felt a pain just looking at it.
"Gently, gently, this will help me get into the story."
Ouch, that hurts!
Immersion, a fresh term.
No wonder his daughter always made him hit people with a stick; Old Li understood something.
“Mother, we have already separated our households. You are now in my and the head of the household’s territory. I am the mistress of this house. If you really think I have no right to speak, I will leave.”
Zhao Dahua was very assertive and didn't back down at all from Old Lady Li.
It is Old Mrs. Li and Old Mr. Li who need their care, not her and Old Mr. Li begging to be cared for.
The meaning is clear: I'm leaving, and don't come begging to me again.
Clearly, Old Lady Li understood this as well; she was caught in her throat, unsure whether to speak or not.
Li Laosi, standing to the side, gave a desolate smile.
"Mother, please don't argue with my second sister-in-law because of me."
"My poor fourth brother, how dare the Liu family?"
Now that she had a way out, especially since it was given to her by her beloved youngest son, Old Mrs. Li cried even more miserably.
I regret separating from the family.
If the family hadn't separated, Li Laosi could go home whenever he wanted, and Zhao Dahua wouldn't have a say in it.
The weeping was mournful, the air filled with sorrow.
But could you please explain things clearly? What exactly did the Liu family do to Li Laosi?
I'm very curious, please tell me quickly.
"Second son's wife, sit down!"
Not only did Old Lady Li regret dividing the family property, but Old Lady Li regretted it too.
After the family split up, they were essentially living under someone else's roof; their words carried no weight, and they were no longer as comfortable as they had been before the split.
"snort"
Seeing Old Lady Li's state, Zhao Dahua was happy. Old Lady Li was finally beginning to experience the suffering Zhao Dahua had endured.
She can be biased, she can be biased too.
"Listen up, all of you! Your father called you here mainly because of the fourth son's matter."
【Okay, okay.】
Even if you don't say anything, we have eyes too. If it weren't for Li Laosi, you would have invited my father.
After the merciless criticism, Boss Li nodded in agreement.
That's right, he's like an invisible person when there's nothing going on, but when something happens, it's Li Laoda. He's already figured out Li Laotai and Li Laotou's tricks.
However, this time, he and his daughter just came to watch the fun.
Not to mention his daughter's curiosity, he himself was extremely curious. When they left, the three of them held hands and looked quite happy. Now, how did it turn out like this, as if they had suffered a great injustice?
"The Liu family has other quirks. When the fourth son first moved in, things were alright, but gradually..."
The rest of the words were difficult for Old Man Li to say.
He truly never imagined that while he was paving the way for Li Laosi's escape, Li Laosi would find himself in a wolf's den. He was so ashamed to admit it.
"Slowly, what's wrong?"
Li Yiyi was eager to speak, her large, curious eyes fixed on Old Man Li. A lump formed in her throat, and Old Man Li decided to remain silent.
"It's nothing. Anyway, the Liu family doesn't treat the fourth brother like a human being. The main reason I called you, the eldest and second eldest, over today is to discuss the matter of the fourth brother's return."
"Father knows that you all think that I am biased, but among the four of you brothers, the third brother is already gone, and if I were to see the fourth brother die too, I really couldn't bear it."
What does your inability to handle it have to do with us?
[Speechless. This hesitant, stammering manner is utterly unpleasant.]
Is it so easy for him to come back?
[It's been so many years since Liu Fangmei and Liu Fangzhuang met someone like Li Laosi. You think you can just easily get them back? No wonder they're not willing to let go.]
After Old Li finished speaking, no one said a word.
He sighed inwardly, regretting not separating the family. If only they had just said what to do, he wouldn't have had to bend down and look at Li Lao Er and Li Lao Da's faces.
"The Liu family agreed to let the fourth son come back, but on one condition."
They all looked up, their knowing glances seeming to say, "We knew it wouldn't be that easy."
"The person can come back, but it will cost six hundred yuan."
Another twist occurred; Old Man Li really didn't give anyone a chance to breathe.
Li Laosi kept his head down, rubbing his wrist. If he weren't ruthless enough, Liu Fangmei and Liu Fangzhuang probably wouldn't have let him come back.
His original plan was that after marrying Liu Fangmei, he could get her pregnant and use that as an excuse to take over her job.
In this way, he could get a job and a wife without spending a penny.
But things didn't go as he expected after his deliberate attempt to lure her in; an unexpected Liu Fangzhuang appeared.
Having been caught red-handed, he had no choice but to agree to the marriage proposal from the Liu siblings. He had planned to infiltrate their family and slowly sow discord between them, but unexpectedly, he didn't even have a chance to make a move.
