After Aunt Li left, Li Wanshi pulled through again!
Aunt Li and her two sons-in-law quickly helped to comfort her. Aunt Li looked at her second sister, who seemed completely unaffected, and sighed inwardly, wishing she were the one who was deaf right now!
Aunt Li strolled leisurely to Li Jin's house, climbed onto the kang (a heated brick bed) as if she knew it well, grabbed a handful of melon seeds and started cracking them open. "Little Yingzi, pour me a glass of water!"
Zhao Sufang served her sister-in-law a plate of frozen persimmons and a plate of thinly sliced watermelon. "Sister, have some! It's hot in here, this will help cool you down."
Li Jin asked his older sister, "Why did you come at this hour?"
Aunt Li spat out the sunflower seed shells in her mouth. "She and Mom started arguing again. I couldn't be bothered to listen to her crying, so I came over."
He then said to Zhao Sufang, "I'll have lunch at your house today!"
Zhao Sufang and her sister-in-law had a very good relationship. "That's exactly what I wanted! Let's have a bowl for lunch!"
"That would be wonderful!"
In response to her sister-in-law's question, she asked Li Jin, "What's wrong? Why did Mom say you're unfilial the moment we met?"
Her younger brother used to be a very filial son, so she was used to hearing people say she was unfilial and just ignored them.
Li Jin recounted the whole story of Li Weijun's marriage, then asked, "Big sister, do you think what Mom did was right or wrong?"
Aunt Li was furious. "What our mother did was certainly wrong! But what you did was wrong too!"
Li Jin was stunned, then heard Aunt Li continue, "Why would you keep a wife from such a family for Wei Jun?"
Li Jin smiled bitterly, "Wei Jun would rather cut off our route than let his wife go."
"Well, this kid's grown up and still can't tell right from wrong! Good riddance, so he won't hold you back in the future!"
Aunt Li is such a decisive and efficient person.
Actually, she only asked about her family's troubles; what she was most interested in was her second nephew.
"Xiangdong, come tell your aunt, how did you come up with so many ways to make money? The whole brigade is talking about it, saying that a god of wealth has appeared in Lijiapo Brigade!"
Li Xiangdong also liked his aunt quite a bit. Since they were family, he didn't need to hide anything from her and simply recounted how he discovered high-yield wheat seeds and wheatgrass seed oil.
Aunt Li stopped eating her melon seeds and kept praising it!
Li Xiangdong's heart stirred. His eldest cousin from his aunt's side was an honest man. Since he wouldn't be able to go to western Sichuan every time, he would need someone from his own side to help him.
"Auntie, could you let my brother Chao go out with me sometime?"
Aunt Li readily agreed, "There's not much work in the team right now, go for it!"
At 11 a.m., Li Yuan arrived with Qi Yuexian and Li Hong.
"Happy Chinese New Year, big sister!"
Happy Chinese New Year!
Aunt Li carefully examined her second brother's family. In just half a year, her second brother was no longer the cowardly man he used to be; he was quite energetic, and Qi Yuexian's eyes looked normal again.
Zhao Sufang invited her second brother's family to have dinner together. Li Yuan didn't stand on ceremony and climbed onto the kang (a heated brick bed) to chat with his eldest sister, while Qi Yuexian went to the outer room to help with the cooking.
The lavishness of lunch greatly exceeded Aunt Li's expectations. She knew her brother's family was making money, but she never imagined they could be this well-off!
The table was laden with chicken, duck, fish, and meat, and the freshest thing of all was the fresh vegetables such as tomatoes, cucumbers, green beans, and lotus root slices!
Every bite of this food is money!
Aunt Li enjoyed her meal. She was happy that her brothers were doing well.
Who knew that the door would be kicked open when we were only halfway through our meal!
"Clang—"
The big yellow dog darted off like an arrow, barking angrily.
Li Xiangdong was near the door, so he went out and saw a young man he didn't recognize.
With fair skin, thick eyebrows, and large eyes, but with a shifty gaze, Li Xiangdong subconsciously made a guess.
Li Lan then came out as well. "Who is it, Xiang Dong?"
As soon as she finished speaking, she looked up and saw the man in front of her. The rice bowl in her hand fell to the ground with a "crash" and shattered into pieces.
"You, how did you get here?"
I was right, this was indeed my beastly brother-in-law!
You choose the path to heaven but refuse to take it, while you choose to walk into hell when there is no way out for you!
Li Xiangdong held his older sister's cold hand and said gently, "Sister, we're at home, don't be afraid!"
Hearing her father's voice, Zhang Huan inside the house trembled in fright, her face turning pale instantly.
Zhao Sufang and Li Jin came out, followed by Li Ying and Hong Shui.
Zhang Yusong, with a nonchalant air, flashed what he thought was a handsome smile, "Everyone is too kind, there's no need for you all to come out and greet me!"
Zhao Sufang thought of the bruises all over her daughter's body and felt like she could tear him apart. "You still dare to come to my house?"
Zhang Yusong was baffled. "Why can't I come? I don't mind that your family is poor."
He never expected Li Lan to reveal his domestic violence.
"What are you eating? It smells delicious. Is it stewed meat? I've been out since early morning, haven't had a proper meal, I'm starving! Mother-in-law, please stop blocking the door, let me in for a bite of meat!"
Zhang Yusong's Adam's apple bobbed as he swallowed twice.
This shameless attitude infuriated Aunt Li, who was inside the house.
She jumped off the kang (a heated brick bed), shuffled to the back of Zhao Sufang in her slippers, leaned against the doorframe, and said in a deep voice, "I'll teach you a lesson you won't forget!"
Just then, Li Xiangdong reached the door, gently locked it, turned around and quickly put a wicker basket over Zhang Yusong's head, then kicked him hard in the back of the knee. Zhang Yusong cried out in pain and knelt on the ground.
"Third brother-in-law, hit him!"
The floodwaters were still unaware of what had happened. Why was she hitting her brother-in-law as soon as she entered the house?
Li Ying kicked him, "Go now!"
"Why!"
The crowd rushed forward, some with fire pokers, others with rolling pins, turning the small main room into chaos!
Finally, all that could be heard in the room was the sound of heavy breathing and Zhang Yusong's cries of "Oh dear mother, help!"
Li Ping also took advantage of the chaos to scratch Zhang Yusong a couple of times, and when he came back, he secretly told Zhang Huan, "You go too, hit him a couple of times! That way you won't be afraid anymore!"
Zhang Huan actually went, although he didn't even see if he hit his father. But seeing his father's pitiful begging for mercy, he suddenly wasn't afraid anymore.
So, you can also be beaten to the point of begging for mercy, and be beaten so badly that you have no power to fight back!
From now on, I will become stronger, so strong that when you see me, you won't even dare to have the thought of hitting me.
At this moment, Li Xiangdong had no intention of solving his niece's psychological problems; he simply wanted revenge.
An eye for an eye, a tooth for a tooth; if you hit my sister, I'll pay you back tenfold!
In the end, Aunt Li, fearing something might happen, stopped everyone.
Zhang Yusong lay on the ground like a dead dog, holding his head in his hands and howling incessantly.
"stand up!"
Li Xiangdong stepped on Zhang Yusong's hand.
Zhang Yusong screamed like a pig being slaughtered, "It hurts, it hurts so much!"
"I'm asking you, why did you hit my sister?"
