To be honest, Li Jin was a very strong-willed person. Ever since he stepped down from his position as director of Yongxing Baijiu Factory, he had been holding back a lot of anger. But after the successive appearances of combine harvesters, wheatgrass seed oil, canned fish, and maltose, he gradually felt relieved.
This trip to Dongfang City has given him a renewed sense of vitality.
So, as soon as the energetic Li Jin stepped into his house, he saw his mother making a scene, and a bunch of people in a chaotic mess.
"What's going on?" Li Jin's face was ashen. Li Xiangdong lagged behind, feeling equally annoyed. How did he end up with such troublesome grandparents?
In this world, some people are smart, and some are content, and they can both live a good life. The problem is that some people are neither smart nor content, and they will cause unrest in their families and hold their children back until they stop.
When Zhao Sufang saw her husband and second son return, her tense heart finally calmed down a bit. She went over and briefly explained what had happened.
Li Xiangdong understood immediately after hearing this. Someone was instigating this from behind. The key point was that his older brother had returned, and the east room was making such a commotion, so why wasn't his older brother there?
But thinking about it for a moment, it's not surprising. His older brother is a trouble-averse person who always keeps to himself and doesn't care about things that don't concern him. Even if it involves his parents or brothers, he's too lazy to bother with it.
Li Xiangdong smirked and gave Li Jin a gloating look. This time, your good son and your own mother have gotten into a fight, haha!
He didn't plan to interfere. Li Weijun, as the eldest brother, really wasn't a good one in his past life; he didn't have a deep relationship with his younger siblings.
Li Xiangdong watched coldly, but Li Jin couldn't just stand by and do nothing. He stepped forward to stop his mother from banging her head against the wall, helped his father up after he fell, and calmed them down.
When Li Wanshi saw her son arrive, tears welled up in her eyes instantly. She reached out and grabbed her son's hand. Li Jin patted her hand reassuringly, then turned to the onlookers inside and outside the house and said, "Everyone, go back and cook. After we eat, we'll have a meeting at the brigade headquarters!"
Upon hearing this, everyone realized they wouldn't be able to enjoy the excitement, and they all hurried home. After everyone had left, Li Jin noticed that there was still one person standing at the door.
"President Sun? What are you doing here?"
Li Jin asked the question knowingly, but Zhao Sufang had already told him about the work group's arrival in Lijiapo.
Sun Zhiqing smiled and said, "Oh, Captain Li, I've been here for several days now. I came to your house to look for you since you haven't shown up!"
After listening to Sun Zhiqing's sarcastic remarks, Li Jin gave a cold laugh, "If it's about work, please come to the brigade headquarters first. I've been running around outside for several days. Let me have a meal and a drink before you interrogate me!"
"Look at what you're saying, Brother Li Jin! This isn't an interrogation; it's a routine work inspection by the organization. You need to treat the organization's work with the right attitude!"
She retorted to Li Jin, then said very considerately, "You should take care of things at home first. Sigh, it's not easy for anyone, sigh—"
After saying that, Sun Zhiqing left happily.
Li Jin's face turned pale at Li Xiangdong's two sighs, and he ordered Li Xiangdong to close the door and then asked Zhao Sufang to call Li Weijun over.
"That troublesome beast, is he hiding in the west room like a corpse? There's crying and shouting in the east room, is he deaf and can't he hear it?"
Li Jin angrily scolded his eldest son, feeling a hidden disappointment in his heart. This was the son he had longed for after having three daughters. He had high hopes for him since he was a child, and sent him to join the army when he was a teenager. How could he have caused such a big mess as soon as he came back!
It's one thing to cause trouble, but why can't you handle the aftermath? You just shirked your responsibilities and left the mess for someone else.
The room wasn't soundproof, and Li Jin's voice was loud, but even so, there was still no sound from the west room.
Zhao Sufang knocked on the door for a long time, but no one answered. In a fit of anger, Li Jin took two steps back and kicked open the door made by Huang Song!
Li Weijun lay on the bed, his head covered by the blanket, motionless.
Li Jin and Zhao Sufang were startled. Their eldest son hadn't heard such a commotion. Had something happened?
Forgetting his anger, Li Jin quickly stepped forward, lifted the blanket, and tremblingly extended his index finger to Li Weijun's nose...
Her breathing is long and steady; she's asleep!
Li Jin slapped Li Weijun awake, who was fast asleep. Li Weijun opened his eyes groggily and asked, "Dad, what are you doing here?"
He was half asleep, thinking he was still in the army.
Li Jin's face darkened further. Zhao Sufang also felt that her son was too arrogant. However, out of love for her son, she gently advised her husband, "Wei Jun has been on the train for more than ten hours since he was discharged. The child is tired. Don't get angry."
Li Jin suppressed his temper and simply scolded in a low voice, "Wake up and come over here to apologize to your grandmother!"
Li Xiangdong curled his lips. Sure enough, his father was biased towards his eldest brother. If he and his other siblings had acted this way, his father would have already given them a good beating with his shoe!
After taking a nap, Li Weijun regained his senses and quickly got out of bed, following his father to Li Wanshi.
Without Li Jin even having to teach him, Li Weijun knelt down on his own.
"Grandma, when I heard you say that my dad is going to jail, I panicked and my mind went blank, and I didn't know what I was doing!"
"Grandma, are you alright? Are you hurt?"
"If you break yourself, I, your grandson, won't be able to live either."
Wow, Li Weijun's acting skills are truly inherited from Li Wanshi's bloodline.
Li Wanshi breathed a sigh of relief, finally relieved that she didn't have to threaten suicide. Li Weijun had given her a way out, and she readily accepted.
