Looking at this useless brother in front of him, the anger in his heart was ignited again.
"You are already an adult, don't you know that you should be responsible for your own future?" Huo Jinyan pointed at Huo Fugui's nose and cursed.
"Because of your laziness and incompetence, our family has lost all face in the entire Huojiagou area!"
"I'm really confused. Why can't you all work hard to make a living when you're all strong and healthy? What's the point of just sitting around at home and enjoying the fruits of your labor?"
"You're thick-skinned enough to not care, fine! If you have the guts, then don't drag me down with this. And don't waste my time and energy on such trivial matters!"
"Huo Fugui, this is the first time I'm scolding you, but it will also be the last time. If you really don't learn your lesson and are a hopeless loser, then I will never ask about anything between you again."
After all, he is still the eldest son of the Huo family. Even if his bones are broken, his tendons are still connected. He still hopes that everything will get better for his family.
But he knew very well what kind of person the other person was.
If they could change for the better, they wouldn't wait for him to scold them.
Faced with his elder brother's endless lectures, Huo Fugui was dumbfounded.
It was only when Wang Guihua came out to support him that he came back to his senses.
"Why did you hit him? He's still young. As the older brother, why don't you just let him go?"
Huo Fugui is her biological son, and Huo Jinyan is not her biological son. Of course she favors her own son. She can't be so stupid as to favor someone else's child!
In this day and age, how could a stepmother be nice to her stepson?
Huo's father also came out holding a pipe, his face full of solemnity: "Huo Jinyan, are you crazy? Don't think that you can ignore your family just because you are the head of the group! I'm telling you, don't say you are the head of the group now, even if you become the chief in the future, I am still your father. If I tell you to kneel down, you have to kneel down."
"Hey, you're not even dead yet, but you're already thinking about your afterlife. You really know how to plan ahead."
Jiang Mengning really couldn't stand watching the whole family bullying Huo Jinyan.
In her spiritual world, her parents and relatives are like Buddha, kind, lovely and amiable, and they give to their children without regrets and without asking for anything in return.
Whether before or after she put it on, mom and dad were both very nice!
I have never seen such biased parents. They suck the blood of their eldest son to support the whole family. They are really shameless.
"Who are you cursing to death? We are your elders. Are you so rebellious as you?" Wang Guihua pointed at Jiang Mengning's nose and was about to pounce on her and tear her apart, but was stopped by Huo Fugui.
"Whoever shouts louder should be cursed. You're the only one with the loudest voice. It seems that Jin Yan made you eat too much! It's okay if you're just full, but there are even some who directly smash the bowls. I want to ask you people, do you still have any sense of shame?"
Jiang Mengning became more and more angry as she scolded him: "Your old faces combined are thicker than the corner of the city wall. I feel ashamed for you."
"You..." Zhang Guihua and Huo's father were so angry that their faces turned ashen, as if they had been beaten with heavy punches, with bruises on their noses and faces.
After suffering serious harm from his family, Huo Jinyan no longer had any expectations for his family and his heart grew cold.
It was just out of filial piety that he couldn't completely break with his family.
Jiang Mengning's protection made his cold heart warm again.
He stared at the pretty young wife beside him. At this moment, he wanted to act weak for a while and wanted to rely on her.
He wanted to know what it felt like to depend on someone.
After rubbing the violently beating breasts, Huo Jinyan really didn't want to waste his breath on such things, so he pulled Jiang Mengning, who had entered a fighting state, away.
"Oh, don't pull me, I have to scold them and wake them up today. Huo Jinyan, I can't let you be bullied by them."
Wang Guihua also shouted, "Come and scold me, if you have the guts, come and scold me, I'm not afraid of you."
"Mom, stop talking."
Huo Fugui grabbed his mother's hand and dragged her into the house.
"You pulled me too! You were beaten by your brother just now. Your face is swollen. Doesn't it hurt?"
Huo Fugui entered the house and faced the wall as if he was reflecting on his mistakes.
After a long while, he said weakly, "I think big brother's beating was good, and his scolding was also right. Our family is really not decent and too lazy. Mom, as a woman, you haven't played a leading role. We can't continue like this."
Wang Guihua felt a tightness in her chest and almost fainted from anger.
Before I could calm down, I heard my son say, "Mom, it's getting late. Hurry up and make something delicious. My eldest brother and his wife are coming home today, so the meal needs to be more substantial. Don't be stingy."
"You... are such an idiot." Wang Guihua didn't know how to say the curse words.
When Grandma Zhang next door learned that Huo Jinyan had returned, she immediately asked her daughter-in-law to cook dinner.
She has to treat Jinyan well.
There is some bacon left at home, so I took it out and stir-fried the bacon with garlic sprouts.
Catch another fish from the river and make braised fish.
Pick some homegrown greens from the field and stir-fry them.
Add some smashed cucumber and fried peanuts, and this simple meal is ready.
Although it is simple, it is considered quite grand for entertaining guests in this era.
Huo Jinyan did not refuse Grandma Zhang's kindness and went to Zhang's house with his wife and children.
At the Huo family's side, other families' meals were almost cooked, but they were just beginning to half-heartedly light a fire and cook.
Wang Guihua felt that she had suffered a lot of grievances today, but when she thought about having to cook for those two people, she felt uncomfortable.
If she didn't do it, she would be thinking about other people's money, so she had no choice but to go into the kitchen reluctantly.
Humph, even though she was so fierce when scolding people, she had to let them know that she, Wang Guihua, was not someone to be trifled with.
It was impossible to cook rice, so I made a pot of rice porridge that was so thin that I could look in the mirror.
There was no meat to eat. Just a plate of pickled turnips from the jar and a pot of stir-fried mushrooms picked from the mountains. That was it.
Nowadays, people pay attention to thrift and diligence. It is good enough to have something to eat. If you are picky, you will be criticized by the organization.
"Tianlong, go and call them to come for dinner." Wang Guihua shouted in the kitchen.
"Okay."
Huo Tianlong thought he was going to have a big dinner today, so he quickly ran to call people and came back after a while.
"Grandma, it's bad. They went to the next door to eat."
