Three hundred and fifteen red flags were mistaken.
Despite Luo's reassurance, Li Wei was still worried that Luo might do something bad to her mother-in-law.
To be honest, they don't live together, and apart from what happened today, they don't really have any conflicts. Seeing the old red flag of the Luo family being dealt with, she couldn't bear it.
Frustrated, she pushed Da Luo away: "No, let's go down quickly, otherwise I won't feel at ease. By the way, your dad doesn't have violent tendencies, does he?"
Da Luo, who was already burning with desire, deflated when he saw that Li Wei was indeed distracted: "Okay, let's go see her. Don't worry, my dad isn't violent. I think when I was little, I accidentally slapped my mom, and my grandma beat me up with a fire poker. I've never dared to do it again since. He doesn't have that kind of firepower anymore, so it won't happen."
The two went downstairs. Li Wei was quite worried at first, but when she saw Luo Er sitting there, she couldn't help but burst out laughing. He had transformed into a panda in such a short time, looking so funny.
The Luo couple hadn't come out yet. Wei Yan was checking Luo Er's body with concern, but Luo Er dodged away.
Li Wei turned to Da Luo and asked, "What happened? You could have just scared him, why did you actually hit him?"
Upon hearing this, Luo Er hurriedly defended his brother, saying, "Sister-in-law, it's not my brother's fault. He made the choice himself." Sigh, if he didn't speak up for his brother, and if his brother and his wife had any more conflicts, his brother wouldn't hold back.
It turns out that Ronaldo took his younger brother to the basement without asking why, and simply asked, "Internal injury or external injury?"
Luo Er had been taught a lesson a few times before, so he was very savvy. When his brother wanted to beat someone up, he would usually do it without asking why, and he also had his own methods for doing so.
Internal injuries are not visible on the outside, but you'll inevitably need to stay in bed for a few days. External injuries may look terrible on the outside, but they'll actually heal in a couple of days, won't interfere with your activities, and won't be very painful.
Luo Er was afraid of ruining her image for a while. She even tried to treat internal injuries. As a result, she suffered unbearable pain.
So this time, I was very obedient: "Brother, please go easy on me. If I absolutely have to choose, then let me choose external injuries."
*Slap slap.* The words had barely left his mouth when he received a hard slap to the eye socket, followed almost simultaneously by a kick to the stomach. -_-|||
Luo Er wailed, "Wasn't it supposed to be an external injury?!"
Da Luo remained unmoved. He felt he hadn't done much: "You've really angered me this time. Let's work on both internal and external cultivation."
The boss knew this too. If he really used his full strength, Xiao Er would be finished. But making him suffer for a few days was necessary. This guy... he deserved a beating. He was a coward who only listened to the weak.
Li Wei naturally didn't know the story behind it. Da Luo wouldn't tell her about such bloody domestic violence, and Luo Er would be even less likely to.
Luo Er was someone Li Wei had watched grow up, and he held a similar place in her heart as Li Lianhui. Seeing his pitiful state, her heart softened, and she sat down beside him, touching his panda eyes: "How is it? It must hurt a lot. Next time your brother challenges you to a duel, don't go. Or if you make a mistake, just slap yourself twice, like that eunuch in the TV show slapping himself. That's much lighter than your brother's hand."
Luo Er was both amused and exasperated. He knew that Li Wei genuinely cared about him; anyone else would have just been teasing him. He nodded with a panda-like face, but in his heart he thought, "Can I not go? When my brother is alone, he just grabs people without any choice."
Wei Yan wouldn't listen. What was this? Crocodile tears? Frowning, she said unhappily, "Why didn't you care earlier? Now you're pretending to be a good person. You're shameless!"
*Slap!* Without thinking, Luo Er slapped Wei Yan across the face. He was stunned, and Wei Yan was stunned too.
Li Wei was dumbfounded, her mouth agape, unsure what to say. Was this a domino effect? After glancing at Wei Yan, who was covering her face and glaring hatefully at Luo Er, Li Wei quickly returned to Da Luo's side. Had she brought some kind of malevolent aura with her today?
Whoever is next to you is doomed. Just now it was Luo Er and her mother-in-law, and now it's Wei Yan (sweat).
To Li Wei's surprise, Wei Yan neither made a fuss nor ran out to be chased by Luo Er in a dramatic way (probably because she was afraid Luo Er wouldn't chase her). She sat to one side with her lips pouting, her eyes brimming with tears that seemed about to fall, looking really pitiful.
Li Wei nudged Da Luo, who then scolded Luo Er: "We don't have a tradition of beating wives in our family, do we? You've got some nerve. But I'll forgive you this time, but don't let it happen again."
Li Wei almost collapsed in anger: "What do you mean 'never again'? If you dare hit me, I'll never do it again! And you, waiter, if you have something to say, say it. You can't resort to violence!"
Luo Er was a little embarrassed: "I didn't mean to."
Without a second thought, the man said, "When have I ever hit you? You've always been the one hitting me since we were kids, and there are also the younger ones. Tell me, who among us would dare to hit you? Let alone hit you, even if we say something harsh, we'd still have to put up with your temper. Only outsiders who don't know your limits would dare to take you seriously."
She sounded like a tigress, so Li Wei quickly stopped her: "Stop, stop, that was in the past, it's ancient history, don't bring it up now. Haven't you noticed that I've actually become very virtuous since I grew up? I've basically never hit a mistress or a concubine."
Luo Er rubbed his arms and said resentfully, "I'm telling you, you two can stop now. Even though you haven't seen each other for a long time, you don't need to flirt like this in public."
Wei Yan nodded in agreement, tears welling in her eyes. Yes, Luo Jianzhong got away with it so easily, and even beat her! Waaah…
Li Wei was stunned again, and whispered, "We're just discussing the matter at hand. Wei Yan, are you in pain? If you want to cry, then cry. I see you always have tears in your eyes, it's exhausting."
This time, Wei Yan didn't think much and couldn't hold back anymore. She burst into tears and threw herself into Li Wei's arms.
Li Wei -_-|||
Has the dominoes finally reached her? What a mess! Ugh!
As for Lao Luo and his wife, Aunt Gao had already prepared lunch, but they hadn't come out yet.
Li Wei couldn't help but nudge Da Luo: "Why don't you go in and take a look? It's been so long, and there's still no movement." Could they have started fighting?
As for Luo Er and his wife, they were both sitting at the dining table, waiting to eat. They had gotten up late that morning and hadn't eaten breakfast. They had also been through a lot of physical, mental, and emotional exertion, so they were starving.
Da Luo was also a little worried. He knocked on the door of that room and found it unlocked. He gently pushed it open to take a look and called out, "Dad, Mom, let's eat."
Amidst everyone's attention, Luo Gang and his wife emerged. Old Luo seemed quite normal, but Zhao Chunyan appeared somewhat coy and veiled.
It seems like he/she has committed a crime.
Although she wasn't very capable, she was still an elder, and Li Wei was afraid that her mother-in-law would lose face, so she busied herself preparing meals and serving soup for her parents-in-law.
Even Da Luo couldn't stand it anymore and thought to himself, "Alright, let's eat. Xiao Ya and the other two are quieter than you."
Luo glanced at her, his expression unreadable: "Let's eat. Let's consider this matter closed. I'll talk to you two after we finish eating."
Li Wei glanced at everyone, all eating normally, and couldn't tell anything was wrong. She then picked up her bowl and took a bite. "Phew! Why does she look like she's done something wrong? Why is she so guilty?"
After dinner, Lao Luo called Li Wei and Da Luo into his room and gave Li Wei a lecture. The gist of the lecture was that Li Wei shouldn't have tried to run away from home with the child when she got angry.
Li Wei really wanted to say that she had only gone out for a two-day stroll and had no intention of running away from home. Besides, this was her home, but she didn't say it, since her actions had resulted in two people being beaten.
Then Lao Luo called Luo Er and his wife in again, and in front of Li Wei and Da Luo, he criticized them severely, concluding with: "If you two want to work for your sister-in-law, then listen to her and stop causing trouble. If you don't want to work for her, pack your things and come back with me right now. The family business is yours. Your mother, your grandmother, and I will move to the provincial capital with your mistress. From now on, I'll live with your brother. Do whatever you want. I've seen through you, Xiao Er. I don't expect to enjoy your success if you become successful, and don't come crying to me if you fail. You'll have to figure it out yourself."
Wei Yan was clearly tempted. The Luo family was a well-known wealthy family in their hometown, and giving it all to Luo Erke would obviously be more generous.
Luo Er had figured it out long ago. He understood the moment Li Wei took out a fruit knife to peel his fruit. Although Li Wei had earned his elder brother's business, the children of the Luo and Li families had been friends since childhood, and were practically family. Especially Li Wei's attitude towards her brothers. Just because she was ignorant when she was young didn't mean she didn't understand now. For his sake, even a lazy guy like Li Wei was willing to go and talk to that fake foreigner about joint ventures. What more could he ask for?
Besides, following Li Wei means meeting people from different backgrounds, which will undoubtedly be more beneficial to his future development. So Luo Er almost immediately said, "Dad, you don't need to say anything. I'll listen to my sister-in-law. I promise my brother that I will never make her angry again. I will work hard and never let you down again."
The meeting was generally successful, and the only dissatisfied party, Wei Yan, was taken back by Luo Er for re-education.
Before leaving, his brother said, "Take good care of your own wife. You should learn from your father."
Seeing that things were mostly settled, Lao Luo decided it was time to head back. There was still a lot to do at home, and he had followed his wife there without a second thought, so he couldn't linger too long.
To Lao Luo's satisfaction, things were handled fairly well, the children were all quite obedient, and even Li Wei, the only one who had the reason and courage to disobey him, performed well, which pleased Lao Luo. As long as Xiao Er understood things, Lao Luo felt that their family's prosperity was just around the corner, and Lao Luo was in a good mood.
The most uncomfortable one was Zhao Chunyan. She hesitated for a long time while holding Li Wei's hand before finally saying, "Xiaoming, look at me, Mom doesn't know the situation and just started scolding you. Just pretend I was talking in my sleep."
Li Wei suppressed a laugh: "Alright, Mom, we've known each other for so many years, we know each other well. I was a little angry at first, but I'm fine now, so don't worry about it."
It wasn't easy. She and Aunt Luo had been fighting since childhood, and she had always been oppressed and attacked. She didn't dare to make a sound in the face of Zhao Chunyan's powerful strength.
Now, I can finally hold my head up!
