"You are just like me, dumb. The child who cries gets candy. You always act like a little adult. Your mother thinks you are sensible, so naturally she pays less attention to you."
"My eldest brother is a good student, and everyone who sees him praises him. He is also very good at pretending. If my mother is also nice to him, the third brother will only know how to compete for favor and shout happily. Our family is so poor, how can we give him any good things? He is actually the same as me, but he has such a bad mouth, as if he got some benefits." The second brother couldn't help laughing.
Li Mancang felt that his second son was right. The third son was treated almost the same as the second son, except that he had a stronger sense of privilege.
"Did you blame us for not caring about you before?" The second brother spoke less and less at home, and Li Mancang naturally felt it, but they were poor at that time, and the old woman was all focused on the eldest brother, so he could only be nicer to Dabao and the others.
"Dad, to be honest, I have complained before. Big brother has such good conditions, but mom still thinks about him in everything. Big brother always responds to his requests. Chunni is from the countryside, and mom looked down on her at that time. Chunni works hard and never complains, but she doesn't get anything good. Now I think about it, mom might have hoped that big brother would have a promising future and be able to help us."
Wu Zhiqiu...had considered this, but not much. She was just purely partial, and there was no need to cover up for her. If it weren't for the chance to do it again, Wu Zhiqiu would not refuse anything from the house as long as Li Xingguo asked.
Li Mancang sighed. He really thought so, but he didn't expect Li Xingguo to change after returning from school. "We didn't expect your elder brother to be like this. I'm sorry for wronging you."
"Dad, please don't say that. I'm not wronged. When I was a child, even if mom was partial to me, it was just a few pieces of clothes and a few cakes. Now I have really benefited from the family. I have houses and land in the city and the village. Mom's work was given to Chunni. It was the ones we didn't want. I built greenhouses, planted mushrooms, and fish ponds. I relied on my family for all these. You guys help take care of the children. Now I am the one who benefits the most from the family. I have truly benefited.
The third child is so happy, he earned everything by himself. I am the apple of my mother's eye, and I am the one she favors the most.
The second son laughed and said that his mother favored him the most. No matter how happy the eldest and the third sons were, they were still ministers. He was the prince.
Li Mancang smiled speechlessly. This kid was so good at brainwashing himself. "That's because you two worked hard. Your family didn't help much."
"Dad, who doesn't work hard? I'm lucky to have good parents. I will definitely be filial to you in the future." The second child said from the bottom of his heart.
"Your mother and I are still young, as long as you are all fine," Li Mancang said with relief.
"Dad, I will work hard to make money and buy you a big house in a few days."
Li Mancang... he can't enjoy that blessing. He now has a shadow on the big house. He may be destined to live in a slum.
The two talked for a long time, and the second child felt warm in his heart. No matter how old he was, he hoped to get the care of the second child.
The next morning
It was just dawn and Uncle Ge was about to go out early. Zeng Laixi came out from the backyard and said, "Uncle Ge, it's so early!"
“I’m going to the morning market.”
Zeng Laixi smiled and said, "Me too."
Uncle Ge...
Two people walked out the door
"Why did you think of going to the morning market?" Zeng Laixi goes out early and comes back late every day, and the job of buying vegetables for the family is done by Da Loudspeaker.
"Just like you, I will do whatever you do."
"Are you going to buy some chicken for Mancang too?" Uncle Ge got up early and wanted to pick out some old chickens to nourish Li Mancang.
"You buy the chicken, and I'll buy the bones. It's cold, so they can be kept." Li Mancang was closer to Zeng Laixi than his own brothers.
When the two came back from shopping, they saw Jiang Fen and Aunt Zhang carrying baskets out.
"Lai Xi, Lao Ge, are you going out so early?" Aunt Zhang looked at the things the two men were carrying.
"I can't sleep, let's go out for a walk early." Uncle Ge was holding four chickens in his hands.
Jiang Fen: "You bought so many chickens, Ge Ye, you have to raise them."
