When Li thought of Mingyu, she felt very distressed.
She noticed that during this period of time, since her daughter came back, her son was no longer as worried and frowned as before.
He is clearly a six-year-old child, but he has already shouldered a burden that does not belong to him.
Especially during the time when her husband broke his leg, her health was not good and she was bedridden and unable to get up.
Mingyu knew that his brother was not at home, and as the little man of the family, he had to take on the responsibility of taking care of his parents and younger brother.
But he was only born a quarter of an hour earlier than Minghao. Although he was still so young, he understood things so well that it made people feel distressed.
The key is that Mingyu still has to endure the oppression from the Li family's old house, although his eldest brother's family will help him secretly if they can.
But it's not easy for my elder brother and the others either, and the help they can provide is limited.
In fact, she knew her illness, and her husband's leg was the last straw that broke Mingyu's back.
A year ago, Mingyu was not like this. Although he was not as naughty as Minghao, he was also positive and always full of energy and optimism.
Mingyu also loves reading very much. Every time Li Jian comes back from town and reads a book in the yard, she can see a spark of desire to read in Mingyu's eyes.
I remember that after she told her husband about this, her husband found her father-in-law that night and said that he was sending Mingyu to a private school.
As a result, her husband was beaten out of the room by her mother-in-law. Seeing her husband's depressed expression, she knew that she had failed to convince him.
And the next day, the mother-in-law pointed at Mingyu and cursed him.
She still clearly remembers the words her mother-in-law used to scold Mingyu.
"Xiao San, you're a peasant, fit only to dig for food in the fields your whole life. Studying is out of your reach. Besides, a blockhead like you isn't cut out for studying. You won't learn anything in a private school, it's just a waste of money."
After saying that, he spat at Mingyu and turned away.
He kept muttering as he walked, "It's really raining red! How dare a peasant like me dream of studying? Aren't you afraid of falling to death on the road?"
She watched helplessly as the hope in her son's eyes was shattered, and under the persuasion of her mother-in-law, her original temper had long been worn away, and she had no idea how to help her son.
The only thing I could do was wipe the sputum off my son's body.
She originally thought this was the biggest blow to her son, but who could have imagined there would be an even more violent storm.
In the afternoon, Li Jian called his son to the yard and asked him in a very disdainful tone, "I heard that you want to study."
When the son heard the question, he suddenly raised his head.
She knew that her son had admired his uncle who was studying in town since he was old enough to learn English.
Originally, the son thought that his uncle would understand him and plead with his grandparents to allow him to go to the academy.
As a result, Li Jian's next words completely plunged his son into the abyss, and have deeply affected his son until now.
Li Jian said slowly, "Mingyu, in my opinion, you are very dull and not suited to studying. Listen to your uncle's advice and give up studying as soon as possible. Help out at home. When your uncle passes the exam, you can take advantage of him and marry a girl from town. You will never have to worry about food and clothing. It's much better than studying."
After Li Jian said this, his son became more and more silent and no longer as optimistic and cheerful as before.
She still remembered that her son told her and her husband that he wanted to study hard and become a scholar in the future, and asked her to become the mother of a scholar, so that she could live a glorious life and never have to get up early and go to bed late again.
Unfortunately, she never heard her son talk about reading again, as if he had completely given up on studying.
