The family members weren't fools, and Li Xingguo called not only his second and third sons, but everyone tacitly refrained from mentioning it during the Chinese New Year.
The second and third brothers were stirring things up outside, and the third brother even came back with a bit of an injury. How could we not guess what was going on?
But no one asked; they didn't want to spoil the fun during the Lunar New Year.
Li Xingguo took Dong Yun to the hospital. When the nurse saw how badly Dong Yun had been beaten, she assumed Li Xingguo was a domestic abuser and treated him coldly. She even wanted to call the police for Dong Yun.
Dong Yun quickly refused, saying that the money in his pocket was real and there was no need to call the police.
They went to the hospital in time; four of the six lost teeth were put back in place, but two of their front teeth were broken and couldn't be put back in. They'll have to wait for the other teeth to grow in before getting dentures.
After leaving the hospital, Dong Yun patted the money in her pocket and mumbled to Li Xingguo, "Go buy the child a computer."
Li Xingguo nodded. Xiaoyuer wanted a computer and had been going to internet cafes every day lately. There were all sorts of people in internet cafes, and they wouldn't let her go. The child asked them to buy her a computer, but she refused to go.
With his current salary, Li Xingguo has to pay his credit card bills, rent, utilities, his children's schooling, and his family's food and drink. He basically spends all his money every month and has no spare cash at all.
This was the first time Li Xingguo had ever experienced such a tight budget. He couldn't stand it himself, let alone his child who had always been spoiled. He especially regretted breaking ties with his family. Otherwise, he could have gone back every day to freeload a meal, and his child could have stayed at his grandparents' house, eating and drinking well, and receiving plenty of pocket money. His pressure would have been much lighter.
He would often reflect on his relationship with his family. After the stock market failure, he should have immediately sent Xiaoyuer to a regular school. As for his third child, Zhao Na, who was so well-off, she didn't attend any international schools. How could his parents possibly give him that money?
He was too influenced by Dong Yun and her daughter, and didn't calm down to think things through. In that situation, the only one who could help him was his family. If it weren't for Xiao Yu'er, his family probably wouldn't let the bank take away their house. As long as he pleaded earnestly, his family wouldn't leave the three of them without a home.
This year was the worst year he'd ever had, even worse than when he was on the island. Back then, his family would send him lots of things, and apart from feeling a bit lonely, he had plenty of food, drink, and clothing. His colleagues envied him.
After returning home, he lived and ate at home, and his salary was basically untouched. Later, when he got married, his family still subsidized him. Although their relationship deteriorated later, they still gave Xiaoyuer a lot of money during holidays. His family helped raise him during summer and winter vacations, so he didn't have to raise the child at all. He didn't realize how much his family had given him before, but now that he's in dire straits, he realizes how much his family has helped him.
He didn't buy anything for his family this year, and his children and Dong Yun gave him attitude. It's as if they weren't the biggest beneficiaries of the good old days, and that he spent all the money himself.
After thinking for several days, Li Xingguo came up with a way to ease tensions with his family. His family helped him find Xiaoyuer, and Xiaoyuer moved in with her parents. In his opinion, Li Mancang still really liked his daughter.
With Xiaoyuer in the middle, he would often come home to visit, and their relationship gradually thawed. Mother and son never hold grudges overnight.
He will never mention money to his family again.
How many more years can his parents live? If they maintain a good relationship for more than ten years, he will definitely inherit the family property.
