Li Hongwei was so angry that he continued to ask him: You live frugally all day long and you are reluctant to buy even a pack of laundry detergent. Your grandchildren have never eaten a single candy from you since they were young.
Where is your money? You have so much money, but you haven’t built a wall or repaired your house…
Li Pingwang still had to say: "Why do you care where I spent my money? If I say I spent it, it's spent."
"What does the money I earn have to do with you?!"
Li Hongwei had no way to deal with a father who was so biased, to the point of being partial to him.
Li Hongwei is not a cruel person, and he is not good at speaking. He simply cannot reason with his father who squanders all the money he has when he can earn it, and then starts to ask him to support him in his old age when he is old and can no longer work or earn money.
Li Pingwang doesn't care whether his eldest son Li Hongwei is in trouble or not.
In his eyes, the other sons were even negligible.
He himself has told others: the second son Li Hongjian is a fool, the third son Li Hongqiang is a good-for-nothing, the fourth son Li Honggang has been weak since childhood, and the one who is certain is that my eldest son Li Hongwei will take care of me in my old age.
He is the eldest brother, if he doesn't raise the child, who else will?
He is just that kind of person, and it is impossible to reason with him.
Chen Xiaoying felt sorry for her eldest daughter Li Hongwei. She was the eldest daughter, but she had a very capable and eloquent elder sister above her who was always bossy and all the younger brothers and sisters listened to her.
All of my parents’ money was used by my eldest sister, but when it came time to take responsibility, she remembered that she was the eldest.
You are the eldest brother, and you are responsible for your son.
Li Hongyan also added fuel to the fire in various ways.
He even acted as if he had a clear conscience: "Dad said I paid back the money, so I must have paid it back. If I hadn't paid back the money, would Dad have said that?"
"I am a married daughter, and a married daughter is like spilled water. If there is any problem in my parents' home, don't look for me. I won't take care of it."
She didn't care what he said, but she still instigated others behind their backs, causing the brothers to become enemies. She even instigated the third brother Li Hongqiang to stab the eldest brother Li Hongwei at her funeral in the previous life.
The more Chen Xiaoying thought about it, the angrier she became.
"That's the house I bought. I can give it to whoever I want. What does it have to do with you?"
What right did Li Pingwang have to come and say such things to her?
"Is there a penny of the money used to buy the house that belongs to you? Do I need you to ask?"
Li Pingwang was annoyed: "What did you say, old woman? I think you want to be beaten!"
When they were a couple, both in their fifties and sixties, Li Pingwang would still fight with Chen Xiaoying. If he didn't hit her in the face, he would hit her with a broom or punch her.
Chen Xiaoying's expression changed and she glared at him: "I've already divorced you, just try to touch me!"
Li Pingwang then remembered that they were divorced.
So if he hits her, will he really be taken to the police station?
"Dad, Mom, what are you two doing? You don't even see my situation and you're quarreling in front of me. Isn't it annoying enough to make me upset?" Li Hongli was furious.
Relying on her big belly, she even dared to say to Li Pingwang: "Dad, Mom must have given me that house. It's mine. Why should she give it to my eldest sister?"
Li Hongli knew that her elder sister Li Hongyan had always been jealous of her mother for not giving her the house.
I don’t even think about who my parents spent all their money on in the early years.
If she had used that money to buy a house, wouldn't she have already had one?
"You don't need it now, so why do you need a house?" Li Pingwang had his own reasoning: "Pengfei has grown up and is eager to get married. This house is just right for him."
"Dad, why? This is my room." Li Hongli was definitely unwilling and became anxious.
Chen Xiaoying listened, her face becoming more and more ugly: "This house is mine. I will give it to whoever I say so. What either of you says has no say."
After saying that, he turned and left.
Li Pingwang was very angry. He glared at Li Hongli and said, "You are a troublemaker. You have married into Xu Xiaodong's family. He has a house in the county town, a two-story building. Are you needed to live there? Do you have to snatch it from your elder sister?"
At this moment, Li Hongli was no longer stupid: "Dad, you have never been to Xu's house, you don't know at all, the house is so dilapidated, there are two bungalows on the second floor, it leaks when it rains, it is made of bricks, there is no cement, the yard is also a mess..."
"You are just ignorant. Your elder sister is older than you and has three sons. She has such a heavy burden. You don't even offer to help her. Instead, you argue with her!"
Li Hongli felt wronged. When had she ever argued with her? "That was originally given to me by my mother."
"She is old and confused. This house should not be given to you. It should be given to your elder sister. Pengfei is waiting to get married..." Li Pingwang said the same thing. Li Hongyan has a heavy burden. She has three sons. The eldest is waiting to get married, and the second and third are both in college...
Li Hongli was so angry that she cried: "Now that we have helped Pengfei get married, won't Pengbo and Pengle also have to get married in the future? Will we still need to help them then?"
"Of course I'll help if I can." Li Pingwang didn't think there was anything wrong with it.
"What about me? What if I'm short of money or a house?" Li Hongli asked with tears in her eyes.
"We'll talk about it when the time comes." Li Pingwang's words made Li Hongli burst into tears. What did she mean by talk about it when the time comes? There would never be enough money. Li Hongyan had three sons, which was a bottomless pit. When all three of them got married and bought houses, how much money would that cost.
By then, the three daughters-in-law will surely continue to give birth to grandchildren for her eldest sister. When will she no longer be short of money?
"Cry, cry, cry! You just know how to cry all day long. If you were not so useless and didn't study hard at school, and if you were dating this Xu Xiaodong, if you found a rich man, would you still be short of money?" Li Pingwang hated his second daughter the most. She had been lazy since she was a child, and didn't know how to work. She only cared about eating and drinking, and she ran faster than anyone else.
Li Pingwang just left like that.
Li Hongli cried her heart out, and only after someone in the same ward came back from a check-up and persuaded her did she stop crying.
She felt that she was so miserable. Why did she have to deal with such irresponsible parents?
Other parents know that they buy cars and houses for their daughters. When their daughters are pregnant and giving birth, they will run around to take care of them, for fear that their daughters will be wronged or that their in-laws will not take good care of them.
But her parents didn't give her anything and just kept finding fault with her.
Li Pingwang chased Chen Xiaoying and asked for the house.
Seeing him with such an angry face, she felt so angry that she wanted to bite her teeth. If she brought him to the store, how could she do business?
Chen Xiaoying thought about it and said, "She wants a house, okay, let her tell me herself."
As soon as Li Pingwang saw her expression, he knew that she was not sincere, and subconsciously protected Li Hongyan: "She didn't ask for it, I asked for it for her."
"Then why do you want it? Did you spend any money to buy the house?" Chen Xiaoying mocked him.
Li Pingwang stared at her: "They are both your children, why are you so partial to them?"
Chen Xiaoying retorted: "You know, they are all children, so why do you always favor Li Hongyan?"
