Chapter 41 Quickly persuade your mother
As soon as he finished speaking, the children erupted in an uproar!
Liu Shiping instinctively retorted, "Why should I get all the money that's lost? And you want all the easy stuff? No way! I don't want my son!"
My three sons are all still unmarried, and they'll all be places where I'll spend money. Besides, they're not as worry-free as my daughter!
Zhao Fengxiu said, "Take it or leave it!"
Liu Jianguo and his four sons quickly pulled Liu Shiping away.
"Dad! What are you talking about? How can you talk to Mom about this?"
Liu Jianmei and Liu Jianli then sided with Zhao Fengxiu, saying, "Mom! What are you trying to do? Weren't you just talking about Fourth Brother?"
Who would have thought that my perfectly happy parents would start getting a divorce?
They had all grown up and were capable of discerning right from wrong.
Liu Jianguo, in particular, was completely numb!
Having both a son and a daughter, and the parents are getting a divorce? Who could stand that?
And their parents don't want them either!
Zhao Fengxiu's face was cold. Liu Shiping realized what was happening and hurriedly shouted, "No! Why are we getting a divorce?"
Weren't we just talking about the fourth brother? Honey, stop messing around, okay?
How can we get a divorce? And divide the children like this?
Zhao Fengxiu retorted angrily, "You still think I'm being ridiculous? You're the one being ridiculous!"
Why should I be born to do so much! To bear so much! While you can just stand by and watch, without having to think about anything!
Liu Jianguo and the others quickly tried to comfort her, "Mom! Don't be angry, Dad didn't mean it that way!"
Liu Jianmei and the others also tried to persuade him, "Dad! Don't upset Mom. What if we really separate the family? Then we'll definitely stay with Mom!"
"you……"
Liu Shiping was stunned. His daughter, whom he had cherished for over a decade, even 20 years, didn't want him anymore!
Liu Jianguo and the others snapped out of their daze and echoed, "We only stay with Mom too!"
Seeing his children's reaction, Liu Shiping finally gave in and tried to comfort Zhao Fengxiu with heartfelt words.
But she didn't listen for long before turning around and leaving. She went back to her room, locked the door, and wouldn't let anyone in!
Fearing that Liu Shiping would brainwash them and make them unable to follow their mother, Liu Jianmei and Liu Jianli quickly hid in their room.
Even Liu Jianguo could not escape this calamity. After listening to Zhao Fengxiu's words, Lin Jingyi thought about it carefully.
She felt that everything she said made sense!
When she married Liu Jianguo, she was already marrying above her station.
But over the years, Liu Jianguo has openly and subtly belittled her, asking what else she can do besides taking care of children.
Yes, Liu Jianguo is too aloof. As a teacher in the town, he is respected by everyone.
But what is she anyway?
They are clearly husband and wife, each with their own responsibilities, yet Liu Jianguo still constantly berates them!
How could she bear it?
As soon as Zhao Fengxiu entered the house, she quickly took the child into her own room as well.
When Liu Jianguo arrived, he was immediately turned away!
Liu Jianguo was shocked. "Wife, what are you doing? Open the door!"
No matter how she called, there was no response. Inside the house, Lin Jingyi was huddled together with her three children, biting her lip, looking very aggrieved.
The three Liu brothers, Liu Jianbang, Liu Jiancheng, and Liu Jiangong, were dumbfounded.
They dared not go back into the house and could only cling to Liu Shiping, urging him to come up with a solution!
Otherwise, if Mom really takes a hard time tomorrow morning, the three brothers will be the most unfortunate ones! What will they do if their parents divorce?
Liu Jianbang is alright, but he still needs his parents to save face!
...
After calming down, the five men, father and sons, began to consider Zhao Fengxiu's contributions over the years.
Liu Shiping said, "Your mother has had a tough time. She was 19 when the country was founded and followed me. It's been 30 years now, and she has given birth to seven children."
After we got married, we left my Liu family and lived on our own.
It sounds easy, but your mother has given birth and there's no one to take care of her. I can only take care of her for a few days at most before I have to go back to work!
No wonder she was so angry. No one was there to help her, so she had to ask her family for help, but I couldn't be there for her.
Later, her family saw that she had a hard time, so they took over the shop for her and let me learn a skill. That's how I started working here, and I've been doing it for over 20 years.
Although she's making a living, she's endured countless hardships behind the scenes.
Especially when you were little, you were all so noisy, and she still managed to take care of you all. I only lent a hand in raising the children.
She not only helps out at the oil pressing shop, but also has to take care of you all! Now that you're all grown up, only Jianguo is married with children, the other four don't have any yet, so she has a lot to worry about..."
Liu Shiping's explanation gave Liu Jianguo an opening.
"To put it bluntly, it's still your fault, Dad! It's all your fault for making Mom worry so much. If only you had taken the initiative to do more..."
Before he could finish speaking, Liu Shiping reached out and smacked him on the head. "What nonsense are you talking about! Wasn't that Lao Si's fault?"
Fourth brother! Look what you've done! You've caused your parents' divorce! If it weren't for your lingering attachment to the Li family, and your inability to let go of them!
Would your mom really make such a fuss with me? It's all because of you, Liu Jiancheng!
"And it's still under construction? We named you so you would achieve something, not so you would be a complete failure!"
Liu Jiancheng was dumbfounded. "No? How can this be my fault? Weren't we just talking about why we're getting married?"
Mom was gradually angered because of my second brother's selfish answer and my third brother's desires!
Upon hearing this, Liu Jianguo retorted, "Fourth brother, you're talking nonsense! Mom got angry because she thought about how Dad doesn't manage things!"
Liu Jianbang was also annoyed, "Fourth brother, your thinking ability is terrible! No wonder Mom says you're a great misfortune!"
It was Dad's final answer that reminded Mom of all the hard work she'd done over the years!
Liu Jiancheng agreed, "Yes! It's all because of Dad!"
Liu Jianguo and the others chimed in, "Dad, it's all because of you! Why did you make Mom so angry?"
Seeing that his four sons were all pointing the finger at him, Liu Shiping suddenly stood up.
"Shut up! Your mother is angry because of you! If it weren't for you, why would she want a divorce?"
Second brother, you're hiding money in your house! Third brother, you want to marry a foreign woman! Fourth brother, you're practically begging for a girl from the Li family! Fifth brother, you're always making a mess!
"It's all your fault! You still have the nerve to blame me! Are you trying to rebel?"
Liu Shiping roared, grabbed a broom from the corner, and swung it at the four of them, slapping each of them several times!
They could only scramble away, making a complete mess of the living room.
At this moment.
The door opened quietly, and Liu Jianxin walked in, looking completely bewildered.
"Dad! Jian Guo, what about you?" Liu Jianxin asked, his face full of confusion.
Liu Shiping snapped out of his daze, still pointing the broom at them, and said, "Jianxin, you're back just in time! Your mother wants a divorce!"
It's all their fault! Those guys made your mom angry tonight! She's hiding in her room and ignoring me.
You should go and try to reason with your mother first; leave these unfilial sons to me!
Liu Jianxin was shocked. "Really? Okay, I'll go right now."
After sending Liu Jianxin away, Liu Shiping continued to berate and scold the four of them.
They recounted all their mistakes over the years, giving them a terrible headache!
Finally, Liu Shiping instructed them to tidy up the living room, kitchen, tables, corners, inside and out!
Everything was cleaned up that night!
