"Then don't believe Yun!" Hearing Yun Youliang's words, Yun Dazheng felt a deep sorrow in his heart. He really didn't expect that his second son would be like this, not only pushing him to the ground but also blaming him like this. In an instant, tears streamed down his face, and his lips trembled as he spoke.
"Old man!" Yun Qishi had come by earlier, only glanced at Yun Duo, secretly gave her some food, and then went back to her eldest son's place to do housework. Hearing the commotion in her second son's courtyard, she couldn't help but worry, so she temporarily put down her work and tiptoed over there.
Just as she reached the door, she heard her second son's heart-wrenching words. She was so angry that her vision blurred and she felt dizzy. She bit her tongue hard to keep from collapsing. When she reached the gate of the yard, she found Yun Dazheng lying on the ground. She was even more anxious and angry. She didn't even have the mind to question her second son. She stumbled to Yun Dazheng's side on her small feet, trying to help him up. She asked hurriedly, "Old man, are you alright? Where did you fall? Are you hurt?" Her voice was already trembling with tears.
Although the elderly couple had an old-fashioned marriage, which was arranged by their parents and matchmakers, they had a very good relationship. Even in the most turbulent years, they never argued or quarreled. They relied on each other for a lifetime. How could the old lady not be anxious when she saw Yun Dazheng's appearance?
Yun Dazheng didn't want Yun Qishi to worry, so he immediately wiped away the tears on his face, forced a smile, and looked at Yun Qishi, saying, "It's alright, old woman, I'm fine! I just accidentally tripped and fell. Look at you, even I, who fell, didn't cry, why are you crying? You're so old, aren't you afraid people will laugh at you?"
"Who would I be afraid of laughing at?" Madam Yun looked Yun Da up and down several times, and only after confirming that he was really not injured did she feel a little relieved. However, she also knew that even if the old man was not injured, he was probably very sad inside.
Just like her...
It is said that raising children is for old age security. The elderly couple went through many hardships to raise their children and tried every means to provide them with a family business, hoping that when they got old, they would have someone to rely on and food to eat.
But what do we think about it now?
The eldest son is filial, but easily influenced. He listens to whatever his eldest daughter-in-law says and has no opinions of his own. Even if his eldest daughter-in-law says one thing to his face and another behind his back, he is completely oblivious.
Second son… She was always a good person as the second son, but because of Shui Sheng's mother's death, he committed a sin against Zuo Xing. He wasn't a bad person at heart. Who would have thought that he would blame his wife and son for Shui Sheng's mother's death and still hold a grudge to this day.
Yun Qi felt as if her heart and liver were being ripped out. She and Yun Dazheng supported each other as they looked at Yun Youliang. Before they could even speak, tears were already streaming down their faces.
“Second brother, if you want to hate someone, hate me. It has nothing to do with your father. He did it all for me. I was just craving mushroom soup, so he searched all over the mountains for it. He was also thinking of me, which is why he couldn’t bear to give those mushrooms to Shui Sheng’s mother… It’s all because of me, it has nothing to do with your father. Even if he’s biased, it’s only towards me.”
"I ate all those mushrooms by myself. Your elder brother and sister-in-law, nephew and niece didn't drink a drop of soup. I, this greedy old woman, ate them all by myself."
"It's my fault, you blame me... Why are you blaming your dad?"
"Has your father ever wronged you? Back then, when our family was fleeing from disaster, we endured such hardship. Your father would rather eat grass roots and tree leaves himself than let you and your brother eat the little bit of food that we managed to find. We were practically eating clay! What more could we ask for in return?"
