Liu Sisi's new home. Liu Dashi's family moved all their belongings from their old house to the new one. They also had to organize many of the newly purchased items. Everyone in the family was busy tidying up their house.
"Father and Mother, the house matter is finally settled. Let's go to the county to check out the academy tomorrow! We also need to put the children's schooling on the agenda," Liu Sisi suggested.
“Okay, we’ll go to town tomorrow and see which academy is good. I can tell your second brother really loves reading; he spends every spare moment reading the books you bought him,” Liu Dashi replied.
Daughter, we owe our family's improved situation to you. Tomorrow, I'll pay your brothers' tuition fees, keep some for yourself, and use the rest to buy land. With more land, we can earn more money. Dad can also do odd jobs in town, and we'll be able to make ends meet.
"The Snake Immortal has helped us so much these past few days. We can't ask for too much in the future. Father will do his best to support you and your siblings." Liu Dashi felt that he couldn't rely on the Snake Immortal for everything! He had to be able to support his family himself.
"Okay," Liu Sisi replied. "If Dad likes farming, then we'll buy it. We can't dampen his enthusiasm, can we?"
They set up a memorial tablet for the snake spirit in their new house, but it was placed in a relatively hidden place upstairs, so no one could usually see it. The couple often took their children to kowtow and worship, and they even bought some chicken and meat to put on the offering table.
This left Liu Sisi, the "snake fairy herself," feeling particularly helpless. She had no choice but to let them worship her, treating it as a form of faith.
"Brother, wow! Your house is really big! Can you even live in all these rooms? It's such a waste to give this house to you. It would be better to give it to my eldest child."
My good mood was interrupted by Liu Erlin's annoying voice.
Liu Erlin and Liu Sanzhu pushed the door open and entered without knocking.
What are you doing here?
Liu Dashi had no affection for his two younger brothers. So many people from the village came to help build the house, didn't they know? They just didn't want to help. If they didn't want to help, fine, they'd already separated from the family and lived their own lives.
These two are really shameless. They came here after the house was built, just to freeload.
"Big brother, why are you being so fierce! We're brothers, and your family is doing so well now. You can't just leave your little brother in trouble!" Liu Erlin said to himself, completely ignoring Liu Dashi's disdainful expression.
Liu Sanzhu's eyes darted around as he looked at the nice house. He walked over to Liu Dashi and tried to take Liu Dashi's hand.
"Brother, it's like this, my eldest son is not young anymore, and I also want to send him to school, but Mother said that the family's income is not enough to support two children's education. Father asked us to come and ask you for a loan. It's a good thing for children to go to school, isn't it?"
Ha... Liu Dashi was so angry he laughed. "My six sons haven't even started school yet! Just because your sons want to go to school, I have to lend you money? Dad, you're really good at scheming! Even after we've separated the family, you still won't let me have a moment's peace."
As she spoke, she took her hand away, and Liu Sanzhu was unable to hold it.
"Hmph, you don't want to lend it? Try not to lend it to us, and see if your parents won't come and scold you to death." Seeing that Liu Dashi was not giving him face, Liu Erlin immediately changed his attitude.
Back in the old house, he never took his older brother seriously. From childhood to adulthood, no matter who was wrong, his parents would always scold his older brother. He always thought he was very powerful and that his older brother was a good-for-nothing who could be beaten and scolded by him. As long as he was angry with him, his older brother would behave.
Liu Dashi is nothing like he used to be. Liu Sisi is constantly brainwashing him.
“Dad, we should treat those who are good to us even better. So what if they are brothers? They treated you like that, they didn’t treat you like a brother at all. No matter how good you are to them, they will think you are stupid and foolish, and they will think that it is your duty to help them.”
"Your grandparents don't really care about you anyway, so just keep a respectable appearance. If they cause trouble, you can't be soft-hearted. Everyone in the village knows who you are and who they are."
“If things get too big and affect the village’s reputation, the clan chief and the village head will come to intervene. Anyway, we’re in the right, so what are we afraid of? We’re not going to cause trouble. If they don’t come to make a fuss, we’ll just ignore them.”
"Just give your grandparents a token gift during holidays to show outsiders that you are filial."
His daughter's words kept replaying in his mind.
As before, Liu Erlin assumed that Liu Dashi was afraid when he didn't speak.
"What do you need so much money for, you good-for-nothing! You might as well give it to me. If my eldest son studies hard and becomes successful, it will bring honor to our family."
"Give it to me or not. If you don't, don't blame me."
After Liu Erlin finished speaking, he raised his hand and slapped Liu Dashi across the face.
Liu Sisi and her brothers had already seen the commotion, and she held them back to prevent them from moving.
Her father must stand up for himself, otherwise there will definitely be endless trouble in the future.
Thud...
Liu Erlin missed hitting Liu Dashi's face, but Liu Dashi grabbed his hand and threw him to the ground.
Seemingly not satisfied, Liu Dashi stepped forward again, pinned Liu Erlin down, and slapped him repeatedly across the face.
"I told you not to use your parents to pressure me. Do you know that the eldest brother is like a father? When the eldest brother disciplines the younger brother, who can say anything?"
"What are you doing? Are you crazy? Ouch! You're going to kill me! Third brother, what are you standing there for? Come help me!"
Liu Sanzhu didn't dare to help. He turned around and left, saying, "Brother, I just remembered I still have some things to take care of at home!"
Liu Sisi felt so relieved watching from upstairs! "Haha, Dad's finally standing up!"
"Big brother, please stop hitting me! I'll never curse you again! I was wrong, big brother, I was wrong!" Liu Erlin begged for mercy as he was being beaten...
