Xu Minghao ended his melancholy 45-degree gaze at the sky, dispelling his frustration, and turned to call his good brothers to find something to do.
Fan Yunli returned the money to the female classmate who had lent her the money, and finally felt relieved.
Strangely enough, it is absolutely forbidden to show weakness among people of the same sex.
It's roughly a special kind of comparison between women.
However, when she finally breathed a sigh of relief and returned home, her father frowned and threw a letter in front of her as soon as she entered the door, asking, "What's the matter with this letter? Why did you write to bother your sister? She's not in good health and her work isn't easy. They even contacted a doctor who specializes in this area regarding your mother's condition. You want to say they're unfilial? What did you do?!"
Fan Yunli discovered that when her father showed favoritism, it was truly unreasonable.
Just like that time during the Spring Festival when they were doing housework, before Fan Xiaofan could even lift a finger, her father said directly, "Your sister's hands aren't for this..."
Even now, people are still blaming her relentlessly.
Just because Fan Xiaofan got a job in the factory, her status in her father's heart has risen so much. But now that she's working in the factory, she doesn't feel that her father's attitude has changed at all. Most of the housework is still left to her.
Fan Yunli was somewhat indignant.
In the past, Father Fan didn't have so many opinions about family matters.
However, as for favoritism, it was only natural for Fan's father to do so. It would be strange if he didn't fawn over someone who could get tickets for refrigerators and washing machines!
Fan Yunlang and Fan Yunrong sat innocently in the living room, watching the drama unfold...
Fan's father's anger intensified: "You haven't handed over your entire month's salary to the family yet, and that's not enough. You're using the money you've been eyeing for your older brother and sister who you forced to go to the countryside. Don't you know what life is like in the countryside? When you go to the countryside, I'll ask you for your money and see if you can still make a living..."
"I only make sure you're well-fed and watered every day, that's why you're causing so much trouble. If you think your salary is too high, then you should hand over your salary to household expenses from now on, and learn how to live without money..."
When Fan's father gets talkative, he really is, and he's not the kind of person who just talks the talk but doesn't walk the walk. For example, the clothes that Fan Yunli has now ended up in Fan Yunrong's hands.
Fan Yunli couldn't lose her temper, because that would only make her father angrier. She could only force a smile and say, "I just wanted us children to prepare some nice gifts for Mother. It wouldn't be right to skip my eldest brother and second sister, so I thought of doing this..."
Fan's father ignored her excuses and waved his hand, saying, "Alright, stop with the nonsense. Your mother is being taken better care of by the doctors at the hospital than we are. It's all on my tab, so it doesn't cost much. She has food and shelter. You children, just take good care of yourselves..."
In this day and age, if children can stand on their own two feet and don't need their parents' financial support, that's considered the greatest act of filial piety.
Fan Yunli could only nod to indicate that she understood.
"It's getting late, I'll go cook..."
Fan Yunli said that she was really in a bad situation, so she decided to cook instead, which was easier.
Father Fan nodded in satisfaction, then said gravely, "You're not young anymore. Don't act on impulse; be more sensible..."
Then, recalling what her youngest daughter had told her last time, she added meaningfully, "Some things aren't as simple as you think. Perhaps, like your mother, one step forward could lead to an abyss..."
What can Fan Yunli do...?
She was helpless too...
With a stiff smile, he could only say, "I understand, I'll go cook..."
