"Mom and Dad, we have nothing to say if you don't support my elder brother and me, but if you want us to work ourselves to death to support my third brother, I'm sorry, we can't do it.
"My third brother is going to school, and we just want him to study at home without paying any tuition fees. Isn't that too much? Why can't you agree?"
"Don't you know how much work there is to do at home? Your father, Zhaodi and I can finish it, but we are busy in the fields. You and the eldest son are just sitting at home with a book. How can you have the nerve to do this?" Li was really mad. She could see that by choosing to vent her anger on the eldest and second son, they must have decided long ago that they would not help with the housework.
"We are so embarrassed, mom, all our efforts now are for a good future."
Li is mute, so if she stops them from studying and things don't go well for them in the future, is it all their fault?
"I'll take a step back. You can study in your free time, but you can't neglect the housework."
Dazhuzi laughed twice and said, "From what dad said, you don't plan to let us pick up books when we are free in the future, right?
That’s right, you gave the books you bought to my third brother. My second brother and I used to use them ourselves. We will definitely not have the right to use pens, ink, paper, and inkstones in the future. How can we study, right?”
Zhao Dayong pursed his lips. That was what he meant. If they were obedient, he might grit his teeth and buy them some paper and ink. If they were disobedient, he would not support idle people.
Erzhuzi was incredulous, "Dad, aren't you too partial? Aren't we your sons?"
"I can't help it. Your grandma wants to build a house, and grandpa has gone to work a lot. You know it well, don't you?"
"Even if these things didn't happen, Dad, you didn't plan to let us continue studying, right? The money was all prepared for Sanzhuzi."
Zhao Dayong was stunned by the question. His fingers were of different lengths. He couldn't make all his sons the same, just like his sons' status far exceeded Zhaodi.
"Dazhuzi, I hope you can understand your father's painstaking efforts. Sanzhuzi will never become your uncle in the future. With me here, can you still be worried?"
"I would be even more worried if you were here. Look at grandpa. He didn't forget uncle when he was dying and gave him everything he had."
Dazhuzi spoke softly, directly touching Zhao Dayong's sore spot.
"And I don't think he can recite it, Dad. You might end up with nothing." The Master once said that the three pillars are rotten wood and cannot be carved.
He couldn't even recite or write, and he didn't work hard. His father didn't even bother to cultivate him. As for him and his second brother, Dazhuzi felt cold in his heart.
"If you don't want to help, then don't help. I don't need your help. You are nothing. I don't need your little money. If you can't read it out, I will think you are dirty even if you kneel down and lick my feet."
Zhao Da was so brave. The little bastard came again and caused trouble for him. Who was he talking to? He just made trouble for him. He didn't think about how old he was now. Without his two brothers to help him, what would he do when he and his wife were old and still studying? Who would support him?
Li covered the little ancestor's mouth and laughed, "Your brother is still young and has no control over his words. As his elder brother, don't take him too seriously."
Dazhuzi snorted and said nothing.
Let his parents continue to be partial to him. He will have to rely on himself in the future and don’t expect him to be filial to them.
Alas, what a pity! It would have been great if Third Uncle could adopt him. With his hard work, he would surely achieve great things.
Dazhuzi lamented that he was born at the wrong time and that he had not been born into a good family. He also became more determined to study hard. He secretly asked Jiadong that his father earned as a tutor every month, just as much as a teacher.
This job is doable!
