Li Xu gritted his teeth when he heard this. If this were to happen, Li Chen would suffer greatly. After half a month, he would lose at least two kilograms.
Li Chen's face almost turned pale with fear, and he quickly argued, "Dad, I'm doing this for your own good. I want you to avoid getting a reputation as someone who will take revenge."
"Reputation? You've almost lost your dignity, what kind of reputation do you still need?" Li Jiakang turned around and saw Li Ping standing there motionless, so he said dissatisfiedly, "Boss, what are you doing standing there? Hurry up and get the rope."
Li Ping showed hesitation on his face. "Dad, if we tie up the third child, how will he go to the toilet? He's already grown up. If he wets his pants, how will he stay in this house?"
"That's right. There are so many children in the family. If the third child can't hold it in, he won't be able to hold his head up in front of them. This is not appropriate. How about this, don't let him eat dinner, but let him eat the rest as usual." Sun Xiu agreed.
Seeing both of them say this, Li Jiakang had no choice but to obey even if he was reluctant. However, he was still so angry that he stepped forward and kicked Li Chen, saying angrily, "You bastard, I'll forgive you this time. If you still can't reflect on yourself, no one will beg for mercy next time."
Hearing this, Li Chen breathed a sigh of relief, then asked in a low voice, "It's okay to go to the fields, but can the food be improved a little?"
He finally understood that he would have to work in the fields, but he might still be able to fight for better pay.
As for whether he would be beaten for saying this, he didn't care at all.
Because for someone like him who has taken a medicinal bath before, as long as he is not beaten to death, he can definitely bear it.
Li Jiakang was too lazy to waste time talking to him and said coldly, "Of course you can, but you have to stay in the countryside for a full year before you can come back. If you do as I say, you only have to stay for half a month. It's your choice."
Li Chen shuddered suddenly. Living in the countryside like that, staying there for a year would be like killing himself. So he waved his hands repeatedly, "Forget it, forget it. Just ignore what I said."
Li Jiakang glanced at him, then instructed Li Xu, "Send him there tomorrow and explain everything to your grandma and the others so they don't feel bad for him, okay?"
"I know, don't worry." Li Xu agreed readily.
After the matter was settled, everyone stopped paying attention to Li Chen lying on the ground and went straight to the table to eat.
Li Chen stood up, dusted himself off, and swallowed unconsciously when he saw them eating. Then he made himself a cup of tea and walked out.
Li Jiakang caught a glimpse of this scene and immediately put down his chopsticks and followed him out.
He came in a short while later with a few oil paper bags in his hands, "This bastard, he almost forgot about the cakes he bought."
Li Xu and others were speechless. You are not giving him any way to survive.
Then Li Jiakang put the oil paper bag on the table, picked up his chopsticks and continued to eat. While chewing, he said vaguely, "After the meal, you guys divide these things up. Don't leave him any leftovers."
Everyone looked at each other and nodded to show that they understood.
After dinner, they cleared the table and Li Xu and his friends divided the cakes at home, while Sun Xiu took Li Wenbai to their neighbor Aunt Ding's house.
After a while, the two returned, only to see Sun Xiu's helpless expression. "We're late. Your Aunt Ding beat her grandson when she got home from our house."
Everyone: ...
Is it so fast?
According to the normal procedure, shouldn’t we start after dinner?
After a moment's silence, Hu Guilan sighed and said, "Just beat her up, Mom. You advised her not to do it again in the future. What did she say?"
"She agreed."
"That's good."
...
Early the next morning.
Li Xu took Li Chen and his daily necessities and spare clothes to Sunjiatan.
But unexpectedly, as soon as they left the county town, Li Chen started throwing a tantrum and wanted to go back, making it so difficult for Li Xu to even ride the bike steadily.
Li Xu had no choice but to stop the car and earnestly persuaded him, "Third brother, can you go back? My opinion doesn't count. Besides, if you go back now, you'll only get beaten up more and nothing will change. You'll still have to go to the countryside to work. Listen to your second brother's advice and come with me to grandma's house. Grit your teeth and hold on, and half a month will pass quickly."
"That's easy to say. I think after half a month, you can collect my body."
His words startled Li Xu. "Where did you get that from? How could you even mention the words 'collecting corpses'?"
Li Chen pointed at the fields in the distance and said through gritted teeth, "It's busy farming season now. If we follow the food standards our father prescribed, I, who have never done much farm work, will be half dead even if I don't die of exhaustion or starvation. In that case, I might as well go home. He can't beat me to death."
"If you have this idea, why didn't you..."
Before he could finish his words, Li Xu suddenly realized what was happening. His eyes widened suddenly and he asked in disbelief, "Didn't you know that it was rice harvest time?"
Li Chen's cheeks heated up when he was looked at, and he whispered in defense, "I know, but I just didn't think about it yesterday."
He knows about the busy farming season, but he doesn't dwell on it.
Because as long as Li Ju says we can have a holiday during the busy farming season, the time has come.
However, now that the school is suspended, Li Ju stays at home all day and does not have this vacation, so naturally she will not mention this matter.
This caused Li Chen to completely forget that it was the busy farming season.
Otherwise, I would have fought hard last night.
Hearing this, Li Xu couldn't help showing a speechless expression. After a long while, he said thoughtfully, "It doesn't matter whether you remember it or not. What matters is that you have to endure this suffering. The more unwilling you are, the more our father will send you there.
