Li Yi watched with great interest, truly believing that all the body-tempering fluid she had given him was for nothing, and all those other health-enhancing medicines. It's no exaggeration to say that even ten more Li Laosans and Li Laosis wouldn't be a match for Li Laoda.
"ah"
A scream came from Li Laosan's mouth.
Clutching his stomach, Li Laosan looked at Li Laoda in terror, feeling as if his internal organs had been kicked out of place.
"Big brother, I'm sorry, I was wrong, big brother..."
"You're wrong, Li Laosan, how could you be so easily wrong? That's not like you!"
The foot pounded mercilessly, and a crisp snapping sound echoed in the courtyard.
Li Laoda is a fearsome god.
Old Mrs. Li and Old Mr. Li didn't dare to look. The eldest son was putting on a show for them, to force them to divide the family property.
Boss Li: You guys are overthinking it. Overthinking is a disease.
"Fourth brother, it's your turn. You're a scholar, so tell your elder brother what you meant by what you just said. Don't tell me you don't know."
He wore a smile and seemed relaxed, but in Li Laosi's eyes, Li Laoda had gone mad.
They've driven me crazy.
"Big brother, big brother, I'm sorry, I'll never do it again."
Even if he and Li Laosan joined forces, they were no match for Li Laoda. How could he possibly be a match for him alone?
"Smack!"
My face is swollen, and my teeth are bleeding.
"Fourth brother, you actually realize you're wrong? I thought you didn't!"
Another resounding slap landed, leaving Li Laosi's face completely bruised. Seeing that Li Laoda was about to continue, Li Laosi looked at Li Laotou and Li Laotai.
"Mother, save me! Father, save me! My elder brother has gone mad!"
Just as his foot was about to break Li Laosi's ankle, Old Man Li couldn't take it anymore.
"Brother Li, if you still consider me your father, then let go of Fourth Brother."
[Pfft, what a big face!]
Is it because you don't have a mirror? You can't see your own worth.
I have never seen such a shameless person.
It's unbearable to look at, absolutely unbearable to look at.
Putting aside Li Yiyi, even the onlookers who heard what Old Man Li said were baffled as to where he got the nerve.
"If I could, I would rather you weren't my father."
Without joy or sorrow, Old Man Li calmly uttered a single sentence. For some reason, Old Man Li felt a pang of pain in his heart; it seemed he was truly about to lose his son.
I want to say something, but I don't know where to begin.
"Boss..."
Confused and at a loss, but without a trace of regret, Li Laoda turned his gaze to Li Laosi.
"Fourth brother, let me help you face reality. You need to know that there are consequences for doing wrong things."
Li Laoda didn't like either Li Laosan or Li Laosi, but if he had to choose one, he disliked Li Laosi more.
Li Laosan's evil is overt, while Li Laosi's evil is truly hidden.
They always present a good image to outsiders, but beneath that facade lies nothing but trouble.
"No, brother, I know I was wrong. I'll never do it again. Please forgive me! I beg you."
"Father, Mother, save me! Let's separate the family, let's separate the family right away, okay?"
Under Li Laosi's pleading gaze, Old Man Li silently turned his face away. His choice was clear: even Li Laosi couldn't shake his determination not to separate the family.
The fists landed on him, but Li Laosi seemed to feel no pain. He couldn't believe that his parents had given up on him.
How pitiful!
Old Man Li and Old Woman Li love you, but not as much as they love you.
[You can't see anything wrong with that! Why would Old Man Li split up the family business to save you? What will happen to him and Old Lady Li after that?!]
"Dad, go ahead and hit them. Looking at it from another angle, it's actually quite good that they haven't separated."
Family should always be together, whether in wealth or poverty.
Li Yiyi mentally rattled off a string of words, while Boss Li's fists pounded down repeatedly.
Li Laosi was incredibly tough; he didn't utter a single cry of pain. Only when the pain became unbearable did he let out a couple of muffled groans.
Old Li, who had turned his back, had half-compromised.
"Boss, stop!"
Tired from hitting him, Boss Li stopped, looked up at Old Man Li.
"Father, have you figured it out?"
Once they figured it out, they split up the family. Although the eldest brother knew that splitting up the family was impossible, he still held a sliver of hope that the fourth brother might be able to help!
"Eldest brother, separating from the family is impossible, our parents..."
Too lazy to listen to nonsense, he continued to punch Li Laosi. Old Man Li was getting impatient.
"We won't separate the family, but I can buy the house where my second and third sons live."
With those words spoken, Boss Li stopped.
Buying a house is a good idea; it's much better than I imagined. Rather than letting an ungrateful person live there for free, I'd rather sell it.
Li Lao Er and Li Lao San remained silent. Sometime later, the two brothers huddled together, their eyes slightly lowered, both clearly unhappy.
When their legs were broken, Old Man Li didn't utter a sound.
Old Li was only beaten, but Old Li was already in a hurry to buy a house.
Does the fact that Li Laosi is a son mean they aren't? Unconsciously, Old Man Li is pushing Li Laoer and Li Laosan further away.
As for Li Laosi, Li Laotou also met a bad end. He didn't help when Li Laosi was crying for help, but now that it's almost time for him to buy a house, does he think it's time for him to take action himself?
Do you really think that calling a halt now will earn him gratitude? Don't dream about it; given the chance, he'll be the first to run away from this house.
"Dad, how do you want to buy it? The house is built with bricks and tiles, you can't give too little."
Li Yiyi returned to Li Laoda's arms. Although the father and daughter were clearly the bullies, compared to the many members of the Li family, they looked more like the victims.
"Boss, I'll give you five yuan per room, how about that?"
