Chapter 615 This Day Is Unbearable
"Grandma, think about it, she's only ten years old this year, still a little kid. Do you want her to be like an adult and give in everywhere just because she has a younger brother?"
Li Xu whispered, "Ji Yuanyuan, don't be rude. How do you talk to your grandmother and aunt?"
Adults are just too polite, so they don’t say many things.
The only person who was injured was Li Xiang.
So today I will be a completely 'impolite' child and help Xiangxiang out.
"Aunt, Xiangxiang and Xiaojie are both your children, and our family is not poor, so why can't we be fair? If he wants one, just buy him one instead of taking it away from Xiangxiang."
If it were a poor family, Ji Yuanyuan might be able to understand.
After all, the family’s resources are limited. If you have a daughter, you’ll lose your son.
But their family was not short of money, how much would it cost to buy two identical toys? Even if Meng Xiaoning had different feelings for Xiang Xiang and Li Jie, why couldn't she just put in enough effort on the surface?
Meng Xiaoning looked a little ugly. She hugged Li Jie and said nothing.
"Don't think that children are ignorant and don't remember things. Some injuries can be remembered for a lifetime. Some people's childhoods need a lifetime to heal. Uncle, aunt, you don't want to be such a person, do you?"
After Ji Yuanyuan finished speaking, she realized that her words were a bit harsh, so she quickly apologized: "Uncle, aunt, I was ignorant today and my words were rude. Please don't bear grudge against me."
After hearing what Ji Yuanyuan said, Meng Xiaoning naturally felt embarrassed to say anything.
She picked up Li Jie and whispered, "I'll take him to buy another one."
After the mother and son left, Li Xu looked at Ji Yuanyuan with a cold expression: "Ji Yuanyuan, who taught you to talk to your elders like this?"
There are some things that anyone can say, except for a junior like Ji Yuanyuan.
Seeing this, Qin Xiaomin hurried forward and took Ji Yuanyuan's hand: "Sister, please don't talk about Yuanyuan. If you ask me, this is a good thing to say. Apart from Yuanyuan, who else would dare to tell my sister-in-law?"
After saying that, Qin Xiaomin pulled Ji Yuanyuan into the house and said, "Yuanyuan, come here. Second aunt has something to tell you."
As he spoke, he pulled Ji Yuanyuan to a room in the north.
That room was where Qin Xiaomin and Li Yong slept when they occasionally returned home.
Meng Xiaoning and Ji Yuanyuan had both left, and the people at the scene had nothing to say.
The remaining few people returned to the dining table and continued eating.
Li Xiang and Li Nian were left in the care of Ji Ziang.
In the room, Qin Xiaomin whispered to Ji Yuanyuan, "Don't take your mother's words to heart. I've wanted to say those things a long time ago, but I was afraid that if I said them, your aunt would be angry."
To be honest, she often bought clothes for Li Xiang, not for the purpose of getting along well with her eldest brother's family or for the purpose of bringing Li Xiang and Li Nian closer.
She didn't have such complicated thoughts, she just simply felt sorry for Li Xiang.
She often couldn't understand Meng Xiaoning's thoughts. If she had a daughter, she would definitely hold her in the palm of her hand.
How could she be like Meng Xiaoning, who ignored her own daughter?
Ji Yuanyuan whispered, "I don't regret what I said just now. I hope it will have some impact on my aunt."
At the dining table outside, Li Xu ate two bites and couldn't eat any more.
She put down her chopsticks and went to look for Qin Xiaomin and Ji Yuanyuan.
Ji Yuanyuan was originally discussing Li Nian's affairs at school with Qin Xiaomin, and they were laughing happily.
When he saw Li Xu coming in, he shrank his neck in fear.
Li Xu laughed: "Okay, stop pretending like this. Even if I'm really angry, what can I do to you?"
From childhood to adulthood, she has never touched Yuanyuan.
Of her three children, she never hit the other two except Ji Ziang.
Ji Yuanyuan chuckled twice and understood the meaning of Li Xu's words: "That means you are not really angry?"
Li Xu sighed, sat down next to Ji Yuanyuan, and asked Qin Xiaomin in a low voice: "Have your eldest brother and our mother always been like this today?"
Qin Xiaomin nodded: "As far as I know, yes."
She works during the week, and after work she lives in her parents' home or their wedding house.
I don't come back here very often, only on Saturdays and weekends.
Anyway, when she was around, whenever the two children had any conflicts, the eldest sister-in-law always sided with Li Jie.
When the eldest brother and his parents saw this, they all advised him to be more sensible and not to argue with his younger brother.
Li Xu thought for a moment and whispered, "We can't go on like this..."
Qin Xiaomin also said: "Who said it wasn't true? But since our parents don't care, we, as brothers and sisters, can't say anything."
The only thing they can do is to be nicer to Xiang Xiang in daily life.
Li Xu said thoughtfully: "Okay, this matter is not for you to take care of, I will take care of it. Anyway, I am a married daughter, the worst that can happen is that I will come home less often in the future."
They only come back during the holidays, so even if Meng Xiaoning is angry with her, it won't be awkward if they don't meet.
Having said that, Li Xu stood up and went out.
Meng Xiaoning probably took Li Jie home and hasn't returned yet.
Li Xu called Li Lei out for a talk.
At the gate, two people stood in a sheltered place.
Li Lei looked more depressed than in previous years. He lowered his head and said, "Sister, I know what you want to say. I'll tell her when we get back."
Li Xu frowned, "What's the point of just talking about her? I reminded you four years ago when Li Jie was born. Now more than four years have passed, and there is still no change. You have to solve the problem from the source. Although there is nothing wrong for a man to listen to his wife, there are some problems that you can't just leave unchecked."
Li Lei nodded and hummed.
Li Xu said, "Okay, you two should have a good talk about this. If it doesn't work, I'll go talk to Xiao Ning."
Hearing this, Li Lei's expression finally changed a little, and he quickly said: "I'll go and tell him, I'll go and tell him."
After saying that, without waiting for Li Xu to say anything else, he gathered his clothes and turned around and left: "I'll go now."
Meng Xiaoning hasn't come back for such a long time, I guess he went back home.
So Li Lei went straight home.
The door of the house was ajar, and Li Lei walked in quietly.
I was thinking about how to tell Meng Xiaoning about this later.
After all, this is something the couple has discussed more than once.
But Meng Xiaoning never felt that he had done anything wrong.
In her heart, the older ones should give way to the younger ones, and the older sisters should give way to the younger brothers.
He quietly walked to the door of the living room and was about to push it open when he heard Meng Xiaoning sobbing: "Mom, I can't live like this. Even his niece can say a few words about me..."
Li Lei's footsteps stopped where he was, and his ears pricked up subconsciously.
