During his rest days, Hu Jie took Hu Yingying out to play and eat, but he didn't go home.
Every time he went back to sleep at night, he would be scolded, or his parents, older brother and sister-in-law would play the emotional card on him, saying that Hu Bin, the little fat boy, had never seen a good life since he was a child, so they wanted him to see the world.
What a joke! He drives so hard every day just to save more money for his lovely daughter and give her better material conditions. All his money is spent on his daughter. The most he gives them is filial piety money once a year. Don't even think about anything else.
He still remembered that Yingying was almost raised to death by them when she was a child. If he was not afraid that they would cause trouble at the factory and that they would be desperate and hurt Yingying, he would not even want to give them that little bit of filial piety money.
You still want him to take you out to eat? What a sweet dream! Get out of here when the time comes. It’s best not to bother him again in the future.
Hu Jie understood clearly that his parents and his eldest brother's family had no real ability and were just trying to suck his blood. If Yingying had really died, they would have been more justified in asking him to send money to his fat nephew.
In their hearts, the fat nephew is their grandson, and Yingying is just a money-loser, and it doesn't matter if she dies.
They'd been there for several days, but Hu Jie had been as slippery as a loach, and there was no chance of getting him to pay. A few days earlier, he'd promised to take them out for fun, but not only had they never gone out, they'd even had to pay for their own meals.
The city wasn't like the countryside, where they grew their own vegetables and preserved their own meats, so they didn't have to buy food. But here, they searched through the second brother's house, ate up everything they could eat, and then started spending money to buy food.
Hu Jie was often away from home, and apart from some snacks, there wasn't even a bag of sweet potatoes. They were starving. Even if they could bear it, their eldest grandson was still growing, and if he skipped a meal, he might get sick from hunger.
Every time Mr. Hu took money out to buy food, he felt it was more painful than cutting his flesh.
Hu Bin was playing in the yard that day when children from a nearby compound gathered to play games. Chen Lingling sat nearby, eating a fragrant pancake sprinkled with sesame seeds that Old Lady Yin had made for her.
After Chen Xiangnan accompanied Chen Xianghong to Hai City, because Old Lady Xia and Old Chen had to go to work, and Chen Xiangbei was unreliable, it was better to leave her with Old Lady Yin to feel more at ease. These days, as soon as they went to work, Chen Lingling went to find Old Lady Yin.
Because it was hot right after it was made, she took small bites.
Hu Bin was already hungry. He was spoiled like a little bully by his parents and grandparents in the countryside. When he saw the pancake in Chen Lingling's hand, he couldn't take his eyes off it.
He remembered what his grandparents had said: a little girl should be raised casually and not need to eat such good food, so he naturally thought that all little girls were raised in a cheap way.
Chen Lingling looked so weak and timid that he rushed over without thinking, snatched her cake and pushed her down.
Then, I started eating it in big mouthfuls. The cake looked delicious and tasted even better.
Chen Lingling burst into tears immediately.
The playful children came forward to blame Hu Bin, and some helped Chen Lingling up to comfort her.
"Who are you and how can you steal things?"
"My mom said, don't push people around."
"You have to apologize to Lingling, otherwise we won't play with you."
"Lingling is crying. My mom said you can't bully girls, even if you are fat."
"You're a bad kid. I'm going to let my dad beat you."
"When Grandma Xia comes back later, she will beat you to death. You should apologize quickly so that we won't tell anyone about you and we can still be good friends."
Hu Bin finished the pancake in a few bites, and did not take their accusations to heart at all.
"What do you know? My grandfather said that a little girl like this should be grateful for the stuttering. She doesn't deserve to eat such good food at all."
He imitated the curse words of the village and said, "You still want me to apologize? Go away. If I wanted to eat her food, she should have given it to me long ago. You are so tactless. You have a mother who gave birth but not raised you. You will be beaten to death in the future."
"You still dare to say that to me? Believe it or not, I will beat you up. I can beat up several of you little bastards with one punch."
He waved his fists to threaten them. He was older and stronger than these children. In the eyes of other children, he was a very bad guy.
"Charge! We need to defeat the bad guys. There are so many of us. Don't be afraid of them."
The children were very angry when they heard this. This older brother was unreasonable. He not only scolded them but also beat them.
They shouted slogans and fought with Hu Bin.
Unless children are injured, they will solve their own problems and will not call adults. It is normal for children to fight and play, so some of them will not take the noise in the yard seriously.
Hu Bin was suddenly surrounded by so many people and was beaten alone. He was hurt. Unlike other children, he immediately burst into tears, attracting Hu's father and his family who were in the house.
Several adults from the Hu family came out and saw that these little brats were bullying Hu Bin alone. They immediately stepped forward to pull the children apart, but they hit them a little too hard, and some children's wrists were pinched so hard that they hurt.
But they didn't cry. They just pointed at Hu Bin and said that he was the first to steal Chen Lingling's things and pushed people. Not only did he not get the money, he also wanted to beat them.
I thought Hu Bin's elders would scold him, but I didn't expect that they would be the ones being scolded.
Father Hu: "What's wrong with my grandson eating a cake? You kids are too stingy."
Hu Wei: "I just pushed him accidentally. I wasn't hurt. Why are you so unreasonable?"
Mother Hu: "Oh, my dear, it hurts, grandma, please blow on it."
Jin Ju: "My son, you vicious kids, how did your parents teach you to be so rude? You just caught my son, an outsider, bullying him. Call your parents here right away."
"My son has been injured by you, come here quickly and pay the money!"
"How were you brought up, kids? You're from the city, but you have no manners at all. I think you'll all be destined for jail. You're so young, yet you're already confusing right and wrong. You're all bad elements."
The other members of the Hu family thought, yes, their children were injured, so they had to pay compensation. The city's expenses were so high, and the compensation would help them recover some of their losses.
But they didn't notice that Hu Bin was just crying loudly, and there were only a few red marks on his body, which were about to disappear.
The little guys were all scolded and cried all of a sudden. They tried to retort with sobs, but the people from the Hu family didn't listen and kept scolding them one by one.
They stumbled and ran to call their masters, their eyes red and looking pitiful.
