Chapter 806 808. Grandparents
Seeing her grandson's aggrieved face, Li Cuicui immediately turned hostile, "Who bullied you? Tell grandma, I'll help you deal with them."
Gu Bencan shook his hands in panic, "Grandma, I'm afraid I won't be able to honor you anymore in the future."
Upon hearing this, Li Cuicui turned pale with fright, "What's going on? Don't scare me."
Seeing the old man's expression, Gu Bencan knew that he had acted out the drama, so he quickly sat up straight and explained, "My father asked me to work hard to pass the imperial examination and even assigned me a lot of homework.
These days I was thinking about the rare opportunity to go home and reconnect with my brothers, but I got so busy that I forgot to do my homework.
I was afraid that my father would check my homework at night, and if I couldn't produce it, he would beat me to death.
Grandma, you don’t know how painful it is when my dad hits me. Sometimes I have to stay in bed for days before I can get up.”
When Li Cuicui heard the beginning, she didn't take it seriously. She thought that her son asked his grandson to do homework, which was for the good of the child.
But when she heard that the child was beaten to the point where he couldn't get out of bed, her expression immediately changed, "How could your father be so cruel?
Your grandfather and I never beat him like this when they were little. He has grown up now.
No, I have to talk to him about this properly. It's not like you guys don't understand what I'm saying, so why do you have to take action?
If they hurt someone, I think they will regret it."
Li Cuicui changed the subject, "What about your mother? Did she just stand there and watch when your father beat you?"
Gu Bencan's eyes rolled, and his expression became even more aggrieved. "Don't mention it anymore, my father would confine my mother to her house if she dared to speak for us, and even have someone guard her room door."
He really wasn't lying. Sometimes when his mother was not feeling well, his father would be so nervous that he would sometimes even stand guard at the door himself.
Upon hearing that her daughter-in-law was also in such a dilemma, Li Cuicui took a deep breath and asked, "Has your father become more and more irritable since he became an official?"
If it were in the past, he didn't know how to cherish his wife, and he would be dissatisfied if I said a few more words.
Sure enough, none of these men are good people and they forget the support they have shown each other along the way.
At this time, the old lady felt sympathy for the seventh daughter-in-law.
I feel like every woman is walking the same path and they are just looking at the harmonious scenery from the outside.
"Of course not. All the people under my father are afraid of him." Gu Bencan nodded continuously. His father did have a gloomy face in the yamen all day long, but there was still no one under him who was not afraid of him.
Li Cuicui looked at her grandson with sympathy and said, "You have suffered so much, but your father is an official, so he has to have some face, so sometimes you just go along with him.
It is not easy for one person to support your whole family and the entire clan. As his son, you should understand him and try not to make him angry..."
Gu Bencan: "..." So... this state is in vain...
Li Cuicui saw her grandson was in a daze and thought he was scared, so she patted his hand and comforted him, "Don't worry, I'll go back with you later and tell you that I, an old woman, love my grandson and asked you to stay with me more and help with some things, so you accidentally delayed your homework.
But you have to have a plan in mind when doing things in the future. Finish what your father asked you to do first before going out to play..."
Gu Bencan: "..." Grandma, grandma, it's only been one day, and I'm not your sweetheart anymore?
…
He thought he could use the old lady's influence to easily get over the matter, but he didn't expect that because of the old lady's interference, his following days would become even more miserable.
"You deserve it. Do you think that just because your grandmother cares about you, you have the upper hand? Do you think you can rely on her to deal with your father?" Jin Qianqian leaned against the bookshelf and watched her son writing furiously. She almost grabbed a handful of melon seeds to watch the fun.
If you cannot finish the article you are forced to copy today, you will have to double it tomorrow.
"Mom, don't be so gloating. Since you knew about this, why didn't you remind me in advance?" Gu Bencan didn't dare to stop at all. He knew his father's temper. If he couldn't finish it today, he would really do what he said.
Jin Qianqian, "You still blame me for this? I guess you wouldn't believe me even if I told you.
Today, I would like to take this opportunity to let you, as your mother, learn a lesson.
Even though the old lady usually calls you grandchildren her darlings, in her heart, you guys are not as good as her biological sons. "
"Why? Aren't we all his descendants?" Gu Bencan was also wondering about this question.
Jin Qianqian, "Your father and his brothers all crawled out of her belly, and were raised by your grandmother. The affection between them is unmatched by anyone.
Besides, haven’t you heard that mother-in-law and daughter-in-law are natural enemies? But you are my flesh and blood, how can you be the same? "
"No wonder..." Gu Bencan seemed to have realized something. He put the pen on the inkstone and turned to look at his mother. "Mom, will you also put me and my brother first in the future?"
Jin Qianqian was silent for a moment, then said, "I don't know either, after all, I haven't reached that stage yet.
But don't hold too high hopes for me. As long as people live, they will be selfish. Even if I want to treat others fairly, I will definitely be biased towards my own children in my heart.
If I couldn’t understand it before, after raising you two brothers, I understand it a little bit now.”
Gu Bencan walked over and held Jin Qianqian's hand, "Mom, I will definitely not forget you after I get married."
Jin Qianqian slapped his hand away and said, "You are wrong. When you marry a wife, you just need to put your mother and your wife on the same level.
I am your father's responsibility, and your wife is your responsibility. Your father and I don't want to get involved in your family affairs in the future.
The conflict between the mother-in-law and the daughter-in-law is all caused by you people's inability to handle it fairly and impartially."
Gu Bencan covered his red hands and said, "If my wife is not filial in the future, I will divorce her."
Jin Qianqian looked at him with disdain, "It's because of people like you and your male chauvinism that there are so many conflicts."
In the context of governing the world with filial piety, Jin Qianqian doesn't worry at all about her children and grandchildren being unfilial in the future.
Besides, he had a large sum of money in his hands, so it was impossible for him to go that far.
I bring up this topic today just to help this kid better understand the ways of the world.
Having started a good life since birth, the two brothers have indeed lacked the beatings of society.
There is indeed something wrong with people who grow up in a greenhouse. Jin Qianqian pursed her lips and stared at her little son in a daze.
Gu Bencan didn't know why, but under the gaze of his mother, he actually felt a chill on his back.
He lowered his head to observe Jin Qianqian's eyes, "Mom, why are you looking at me like that?"
