Really?
Li Yiyi didn't believe it. She wasn't stupid. Li Daya's boyfriend gained weight purely from eating, not from medication. He had a naturally high body type, the kind who could gain weight even from drinking water.
No wonder they were looking for Li Daya.
Li Yi had no doubt that if he didn't lower his standards, he simply wouldn't find a partner.
“Mother-in-law, don’t make a fuss. My niece is very timid and introverted. She probably has never seen someone as blessed as my nephew.”
[A blessed appearance? Don't underestimate me just because I'm small.]
[I have eyes, I can see clearly. If that's considered a lucky face, then there would be no pigs in the world.]
[Give me back my introverted and timid self. You won't believe it, but I once broke Zhou Wenzhu's leg.]
Yes, yes, my daughter is right. Old Li agrees unconditionally.
"Second brother, second brother's wife, I need to take my daughter to see a doctor, so we might not be able to eat this meal."
I hope you enjoy your meal.
Looking at Li Daya's happy face out of the corner of his eye, Li Laoda wanted to say something.
Daughter, do you see? Some people you can save physically, but you can't save spiritually.
It's not your fault, nor is it Li Daya's fault. It's a result of the special circumstances. Interfering too much might cause resentment.
"Big brother, do you think it's possible?"
On this joyous day, even the eldest brother Li showed no respect, and an awkward expression flashed across the second brother Li's face.
"Second son, we can eat another day. I only have one daughter."
There was no room for negotiation; Boss Li left without a word.
Yes, my dad is right.
Who wants to eat with you guys?
In essence, there's not much difference between Li Lao Er, Zhao Da Hua, Li Lao Tai, and Li Lao Si.
[Fine, it's a case of one willing to give and the other willing to receive; I'll never be so overly kind again.]
What remained in my mind was Li Daya's smug expression, as if being with the Gong family's son was something to be very proud of.
Unable to understand their thoughts, Li Yiyi felt that they differed from their understanding.
The person left without even leaving a trace.
Li Lao Er and Zhao Da Hua were hardly happy; they had wanted to point out Li Lao Da's identity as a meat processing plant worker to elevate Li Daya's status.
“Mother-in-law, please don’t be so formal. My niece has always been difficult to raise. My elder brother only has this one child, so it’s no wonder he dotes on her. Plus, there’s a lot of work at the meat processing plant, so it’s a rare day off for him. Of course, my elder brother would take her to see her.”
At the meat processing plant, Gong's mother's eyes lit up, and she immediately regained her enthusiasm, her relationship with Zhao Dahua improving even further.
"Don't be so formal. We're in-laws, so I understand everything. Everyone has their own problems."
As they walked and talked, Gong's mother became increasingly satisfied with Zhao Dahua as her in-law.
We were prepared for a poor relative, but who knew that the older brother would be so successful, and their status would rise considerably.
They only have one daughter, and she's in poor health. Ultimately, Li Laoda's job will fall to Zhao Dahua's son.
If you do the math, it means the in-laws have jobs, so they won't have to worry about being taken advantage of in the future. They might even be able to help out the family.
Behind him walked Li Lao Er and Li Lao Tou side by side.
Old Mrs. Li was taken away, leaving Old Mr. Li alone in an awkward situation.
He resented Li Lao Er for scheming against Li Lao Si, but he had no choice but to succumb to reality. Only Li Lao Er could provide for him in his old age, especially after Li Lao Tai passed away.
He can't cook, and no one does his laundry. Besides relying on Li Lao Er's family, who else can he rely on?
Li Laoda, that heartless ingrate, I have no hope for him.
Li Laoda and Li Yiyi, who had left, were completely unaware that Zhao Dahua was using them as bargaining chips to drive up the price even further.
All that is known is that only Li Lao Er, Zhao Da Hua, and Li Lao Tou returned that night; Li Daya stayed at the Gong family's house.
The next morning, a wave of envy swept through the production team.
I envy Li Lao Er and Zhao Da Hua for having a city relative by marriage, and I envy Li Daya for finding such a good husband.
Li Yiyi overheard it as she passed by.
She rolled her eyes, a rare occurrence for her. Li Lao Er and Zhao Da Hua only knew how to boast about what others envied; how could they forget about Li Daya's boyfriend's situation?
If it were truly good, why lower the bar?
I didn't understand, I didn't get it, but I respected and wished them well. Upon returning, I received another message...
Li Erya went to school, that's what Zhao Dahua said.
Since the tuition has already been paid, if Da Ya doesn't go, then Er Ya will go instead, otherwise it would be a waste.
If Li Yiyi hadn't overheard Li Lao Er and Zhao Da Hua's late-night conversation, she almost would have believed it.
Is it really that difficult to love and care for your own children?
In my ears, I could hear Zhao Dahua's smug voice and her clearly calculated scheme.
Because Li Daya had attended school, she was highly regarded by Gong's mother and received more money from her. Sending Li Erya to school was a sure win for them.
The words were spoken by Zhao Dahua, and those who agreed were Li Lao Er, Li Jiafu, and Li Jiaqiang.
[I've never seen anyone treat their daughter like an object to be traded.]
No wonder Li Daya and Li Erya came to pronounce judgment on my father's heartlessness and favoritism.
My father cherished me like a treasure, while Li Lao Er and Zhao Da Hua treated them with disdain and contempt. No wonder their mentality is so twisted.
But if you don't fight back, who can you blame?
It seemed like she understood something, yet also like she understood nothing at all. Li Yiyi witnessed it with her own eyes.
Li Erya sat inside, listening to what Li Lao Er and Zhao Dahua were plotting. She knew everything, yet she didn't refute a single thing.
The envy in his eyes was familiar; like everyone else, he greatly admired Li Daya.
Even God cannot save those who do not save themselves; this was Li Yiyi's only feeling.
"Dad, I want to move."
With a pout, Li Yiyi said somewhat uncomfortably,
"Okay, we'll ask your uncle tomorrow if he's found a house yet."
