Li Hongyan found Li Pingwang and saw the renovated house at a glance. It looked much cleaner and tidier. She subconsciously asked, "Dad, how much did it cost to renovate the house?"
This should be the money her father lent her.
There is no rush to repair the house...
Li Pingwang said casually: "I don't know either. Hongwei paid for it."
Li Hongyan looked at him and stopped talking. She asked something else: "Have you told him about your pension money?"
Li Pingwang had forgotten all about it: "We were arguing about the house renovation and forgot to talk about my pension money."
"Dad, you have to tell him. He and the second brother are making money now. It's time for them to take care of you in your old age. If you don't tell him now, when will you tell him? When you are in your seventies or eighties and can't even chew a piece of meat? By then you won't be able to eat what you want, so what's the point of having the money?" Li Hongyan said with confidence.
"I don't want to see him these two days. I'll talk to him in two days." Li Pingwang really doesn't want to see his eldest son Li Hongwei. He feels angry just by looking at him.
Li Hongyan said with a sullen face: "Dad, you don't need to care about his expression. You can talk to Hongjian and the others, and let Hongjian talk to the eldest brother. They are all your sons, and it is only right that they take care of you together in your old age."
When Li Pingwang heard this, he realized that this was also true.
"Okay, then I'll go to the city to look for Hong Jian tomorrow."
Li Hongyan finally breathed a sigh of relief and talked about Li Hongli's situation: "She refused to divorce and said she wanted to drag Xu Xiaodong and that vixen along. I think this is a good idea, just drag them along."
"When Xu Xiaodong wants to marry that vixen, he will have to come and beg us."
Li Pingwang ignored the matter and started to clean up the firewood pile: "It doesn't matter if she leaves or not, I don't care."
Li Hongyan was stunned. People always said that her father favored her, and she knew it was true.
But, looking at it today, it seems that he is too biased towards her. The matter of her second sister Hongli is a big deal, so why doesn't her father care at all?
If she hadn't seen with her own eyes the two twin sisters being carried out of their mother Chen Xiaoying's room, she would have thought they were picked up from outside.
"Dad, this is the meat-filled sesame seed bun I brought from the market. Have some." Li Hongyan said, and prepared to leave: "I just feel uneasy, so I came to see how the house Hongwei built for you is doing. If nothing else, I will go back."
She is ready to leave.
Li Pingwang felt relieved, only his eldest daughter was worried that he didn't eat well.
As Li Hongyan walked, she was still nitpicking: "The house was built too hastily, and I don't know if the materials used are good..."
Chen Xiaoying didn't know what happened in the village. She only knew that the eldest son Li Hongwei renovated a house for his father Li Pingwang. Why did he renovate it? Because Li Pingwang cried to the villagers that Li Hongwei was not filial to him.
He has to do this from time to time so that his eldest son will listen to him.
He felt wronged. He was a father and it was not easy for him to raise his son, so it was reasonable for him to ask his son for money.
As for who he wants to give the things he has asked for, that is his right as a father, and his son has no right to ask.
To put it bluntly, he is the father, and no son can control his father.
Li Hongli was still in confinement, so Ma Xiufen came. It seemed like she was afraid that Li Hongli would snatch the baby away, so she came on her own.
"What are you doing here?" Chen Xiaoying saw her and said coldly, "I can't talk to you about divorce. Let Xu Xiaodong get out of here."
She waited for five or six days, and finally Ma Xiufen showed up.
"My son is a busy man. He wants to make a lot of money outside." Ma Xiufen was afraid that her son would be looked down upon by Chen Xiaoying.
Chen Xiaoying mocked: "He is still cheating on young girls. Aren't you afraid that they will sue him?"
Ma Xiufen snorted: "Where's Li Hongli? I have something to talk to her about."
Chen Xiaoying didn't stop her, and Ma Xiufen went straight into the house to find Li Hongli.
The wound on Li Hongli's stomach has healed and is a little better. She can move around now, but she is afraid that she will feel uncomfortable when she gets older. Now she doesn't go out for fear of catching a cold.
"What are you doing here? Where is my child?"
Li Hongli has not forgotten the ferociousness with which her mother-in-law Ma Xiufen tried to snatch the child from her.
"I took good care of her." Ma Xiufen said. She looked at Li Hongli. She seemed to be in good spirits. It was obvious that her biological mother Chen Xiaoying took good care of her.
"I'm here for nothing else. Since I've been asked to raise the child, we need to talk about child support."
Chen Xiaoying was standing at the door. When she heard that Ma Xiufen was so shameless that she snatched the child away and came back to ask Li Hongli for child support, she was so angry that she laughed.
"Let Xu Xiaodong speak."
Li Hongli wants to see Xu Xiaodong now. Since she gave birth to the child, Xu Xiaodong has never shown up again. Divorce or not, she wants to see Xu Xiaodong.
"Yes, let Xu Xiaodong come and tell me!"
Both mother and daughter wanted to see Xu Xiaodong. Ma Xiufen made all kinds of excuses, but Xu Xiaodong didn't listen. Ma Xiufen had no choice but to stand up and leave angrily.
After hearing the news, Xu Xiaodong didn't dare to come at all.
"What if Li Hongli and her brothers beat me up? Mom, just go ask her for it. If it doesn't work once, go twice."
"I went there and they didn't give it to me. What can I do?" Ma Xiufen said unhappily.
Looking at the **child, suddenly a foul smell came over. Oh, the child had diarrhea again.
"I take care of the child all day long, and my back and waist ache from doing so. The child also needs to eat at night. Since I have taken care of her, I have not had a good night's sleep."
"Xiaodong, hurry up and divorce Li Hongli and marry Xiaona. Then there will be someone to help mom take care of the children. I really can't stand it."
Ma Xiufen really had back pain and said with a sad face.
Xu Xiaodong thought his mother was really crazy: "Mom, I'm confused. Why did you snatch the child away? You don't want to raise him after you snatched him away."
"What nonsense are you talking about? This child is yours. How can I let her wander around outside? Even if she is a girl, so what? When she is four or five years old, she will know how to work." Ma Xiufen said righteously.
"What kind of work can a four or five-year-old do?" Xu Xiaodong didn't take it seriously.
"Why can't you do it? Can't you pick firewood? Or can't you pick beans? Can't you sweep the floor? As long as you have hands, then you can do it. If you can't, then you didn't hit me lightly!" Ma Xiufen glared with her eyes, looking like a fierce woman.
Xu Xiaodong snorted, "It's up to you. However, if you expect Xiaona to help you raise the child, I don't think she would do it even if she agreed. Her belly is about to get bigger, how will she take care of it then?"
Ma Xiufen felt that Xu Xiaodong was overthinking: "At that time, I was carrying your elder brother on my back and holding your younger sister in my arms, and you were crawling around in the yard, but I still raised you up."
Xu Xiaodong's face darkened: "If you say so, then I have nothing to say."
He has been very worried recently. Yu Xiaona made trouble again and cut two bloody cuts on his arm, which irritated her parents. They really had no choice but to promise her that she could marry him if she wanted, but with a condition: marrying their Xiaona would require a dowry of 10,000 yuan.
Then, I have to break up with Li Hongli completely.
Then, she can’t let her daughter become a mother as soon as she enters the house.
Yu Xiaona was less than nineteen years old and was about to get pregnant. Her mother was very considerate of her. It was so hard for her during her pregnancy, and it would be even harder for her to take care of a baby born to his ex-wife.
Furthermore, this is the child born to the man’s ex-wife. Even if Xiaona raises the child, he will definitely not be on the same page with her.
