Zhou Jun's head was hit by the pipe and it hurt.
He actually knew that he was not right, but he had no ability, so he felt that he could only cling to his capable brothers.
He gritted his teeth and tried to speak.
Suddenly a figure rushed in from outside.
Zhou Hongjun shouted to Zhou Laoer with red eyes, "Dad, stop making trouble! Uncle San has helped our family enough.
You still want Uncle San to help us this and that, then what’s the difference between our family and blood-sucking worms? ”
Zhou Jun looked at his eldest son, who was almost as tall as him, and was so angry that his teeth were itching.
He is here, working for the future of these four brats, not hesitating to offend their parents and force their brothers, and now this brat is blaming him!
He picked up the broom from the corner and hit Zhou Hongjun, "You brat, you still have the nerve to say that! If you three hadn't been studying hard, would I, your old man, have to beg and force your uncle to earn a future for you?"
Zhou Hongjun turned 14 this year. Although he is a grown man, he is still a child after all.
Being beaten by his father in front of so many people, he was so embarrassed that his eyes turned red.
But he stood there without moving, allowing his father to beat him to vent his anger.
"Dad, it's not possible for me and the militia to study. But now that reform and opening up have taken place, times have changed. It's not that the only way out is to join the army except to study.
We can learn from Uncle Shen. We can run a small business to support our family and be filial to you and mom.
At worst, our family has been allocated so much land. We can learn technology from Uncle Shen, build greenhouses to grow crops, vegetables and fruits, and we can still live a good life, Dad—"
As Zhou Hongjun spoke, the tears he had been holding back finally burst out, and his voice was filled with sobs.
Zhou Minjun also rushed in and hugged his brother, "Dad, big brother is right. Even if we don't study or join the army, we can still live in the future. Please don't hit big brother."
Zhou Jun threw away the broom in his hand and sat down dejectedly.
He poured himself half a bowl of wine and drank it all in one gulp.
I don’t know whether he has figured it out or is disappointed with his two sons and doesn’t want to take care of them anymore.
With red eyes, he said to Zhou Yubai, "Third brother, I'm sorry."
After saying that, he stood up and walked quickly towards his house.
Xia Yue'e then cried and pulled Zhou Hongjun into her arms, "Did your father hurt you?"
Zhou Hongjun wiped away his tears, forced a smile and said, "Mom, I'm fine."
After saying that, the young boy turned to Zhou Yubai and Shen Chuning, "Uncle, Aunt, I'm sorry, my father just..."
Zhou Yubai met the young boy's eyes and said, "It's okay. Your father is thinking about you."
Zhou Hongjun nodded, "Yes, Uncle San, I know."
"Go, go see your father."
Zhou Hongjun sniffed, wiped his tears, took Zhou Minjun's hand and said, "Uncle, Grandpa, Grandma, I'll take Minjun to see my dad first."
After Zhou Laoer's disturbance, no matter how delicious the food and wine were, the rest of the people had lost their appetite and had to leave the table early.
The four sisters-in-law on both sides and Lin Shulan stayed to help Shen Chuning clean up.
While cleaning up, Xia Yue'e apologized to Shen Chuning again.
Shen Chu Ning smiled and said, "Second sister-in-law, it's okay. It's all for the children. I can understand."
Of course, understanding and accepting are two different things.
Just like my father-in-law said, if you want your children to live a good life, you should do your best to earn a fortune for them.
If all else fails, you can force your children to work hard to earn money, but why do you force them to be brothers?
Just because Zhou Yubai is more promising, does that mean he deserves to be the scapegoat?
Shen Chu Ning is now just thankful that her parents-in-law are sensible.
If they met a pair of rude parents-in-law, they would be in big trouble if they joined Zhou Laoer in forcing them today.
In the evening, Zhou Yubai prepared foot-washing water for Shen Chuning as usual.
He brought another kettle of hot water and placed it next to her, ready to add water for her at any time.
Shen Chu Ning looked at the silent man and knew that he felt bad.
But the children were still asleep, and little Ruirui was at the age where she wanted to learn everything, so she couldn't say anything to the man.
By the time she had warmed her feet, Zhou Yubai had already coaxed the four little ones to sleep.
As soon as she got into the bed, the man pulled her over and held her tightly in his arms.
Shen Chuning raised her head and kissed the man on the chin, and touched the man's chest with her soft little hands, "Brother Yubai, are you still feeling bad?"
Zhou Yubai: ...
He lowered his eyes, his deep gaze met his wife's big, sparkling eyes, and like a big, aggrieved puppy, he softly said, "Yeah."
"Wife, kiss me and hug me." There was a hint of grievance in the man's magnetic voice.
Shen Chu Ning felt distressed instantly, and hugged the man's narrow waist with both hands, and a soft kiss fell on the man's lips.
There was a glimmer of triumph in the man's eyes.
At first, the man just cooperated with Shen Chuning obediently, but soon, the man became dissatisfied and took the initiative.
Only after being brutally torn apart and eaten by the man did Shen Chu Ning react and stared at the man fiercely, "Zhou Yubai, are you not sad at all?"
Zhou Yubai: ...
Oh no, my wife found out.
He grew up with his second brother, and he knew all the twists and turns in his second brother's mind.
During the time they came back, his second brother had told him many times, both explicitly and implicitly, about the three armies joining the army, but he had never explicitly agreed.
