Chapter 1362 Various Forms

Liu Guangtian's flattery did not get a response from his father, and he even lacked a smile. He was used to it and continued to smile, glancing at the peanuts in front of his father from time to time.

"Today, Qin Huairu from the middle courtyard helped the college student bring back two trucks of furniture, all bought from the department store. Wow, he bought all 36 legs at once." The second aunt continued, "This young man just doesn't know how to live, and doesn't understand the principle of long-term development. How can he be so reckless? Don't you think so, his father?"

The second uncle Liu Haizhong frowned and said, "It's really outrageous. The country has repeatedly ordered us to run our families frugally and not to be extravagant. This Su Yuanchao, as a college student, does not set an example. The country trained him not to let him spend money recklessly! This is not good. I have to criticize him and teach him the rules of this compound."

"What are the rules in our compound?" Liu Guangfu interrupted and asked.

This really stumped the second uncle. He thought for a while before saying, "If it's a dragon... coil up for me, if it's a tiger, lie down for me!"

Liu Guangfu smiled: "Dad, I'm neither a dragon nor a tiger. I'm a college student. I can't listen to you. Besides, isn't there an uncle in the yard? It's not your turn to control me."

Liu Guangtian was shocked when he said this.

He looked at his brother with horror, and stood up and stepped back in fear.

Snap!

Sure enough, the next second, Liu Haizhong, with a dark face, slapped Liu Guangfu in the face.

Before Liu Guangfu could react, Liu Haizhong stood up and slapped Liu Guangfu hard, knocking him to the ground, and then chased him and kicked him in the face.

"I was wrong! I was wrong, Dad, stop hitting me! I won't dare to do it again!" Liu Guangfu finally reacted, and cried in a vague and terrified voice, holding his head and not daring to get up.

Liu Haizhong did not do anything again, but pointed at him and shouted coldly: "Next time you speak, use your pig brain! Bastard!"

"I was wrong, I'm sorry, Dad, I'm sorry..." Liu Guangfu cried.

Second Aunt watched coldly and sneered: "Does your dad care about things? Is it your turn to interrupt? Eat your dad's food and drink your dad's food, and you still blame your dad? You are a son, not an uncle!"

"I was wrong, I was wrong..." Liu Guangfu just begged for mercy and admitted his mistake, crying.

"Don't eat dinner tonight! Go, stand at the foot of the wall!" Liu Haizhong shouted.

Liu Guangfu did not dare to neglect it, and got up. Everyone saw that his mouth was full of blood, but Liu Haizhong had just kicked his mouth.

"Wash the blood first and then stand!" Second Aunt said.

When Liu Guangfu went to wash the blood on his face, Liu Haizhong's eyes fell on Liu Guangtian.

Liu Guangtian said vigilantly: "Dad, I didn't provoke you!"

"Get lost!" Liu Haizhong cursed, "You useless thing, I've been staring at my peanuts for a long time, how can you not be greedy? You are also earning a salary now, you earn your own money and spend it yourself, and you also eat and drink at home. I haven't asked you for a penny, right? If you have the ability, buy it yourself!"

Liu Guangtian said: "Dad, I only have such a small salary during my internship, and I have to curry favor with our director to buy cigarettes and treat him to dinner. Where can I buy peanuts? You said that a man should not be without power for a day. Am I not following your teachings and wanting to get myself a position? You can't hit me. I am at a critical moment now. If I go to work with a disfigured face, it will have a bad impact..."

"Go away, go away, hit you and you think it's dirty to dirty my hands." Liu Haizhong said unhappily.

He glanced at his wife and frowned: "I remember there are still some melon seeds. Find them for me. I'll drink with them."

"Hey!" Second Aunt responded and went away quickly.

There was a lot of noise at the second uncle's house, but people in the whole compound were used to it.

It was not uncommon for the Liu family to beat their sons. This would happen every now and then.

It was just that Liu Guangtian was beaten less now that he was working. In the past, the two brothers would be beaten today, tomorrow, and the day after tomorrow, and they would have bruises on their faces all year round.

The first aunt who had just delivered food to the deaf old lady in the backyard happened to pass by Liu Haizhong's house. When she heard the sound of beating the child, a trace of envy flashed in her eyes, and she walked away dejectedly.

She and the first uncle Yi Zhonghai had been married for decades, but they had no children. This was a scar that the old couple could hardly unravel in their lifetime.

Although the first uncle had never complained about her over the years and had always been loyal to her, the first aunt knew that her husband, who had always planned for the long term, was most worried about the problem of no one to support him in his old age.

During the famine in the early years, the two had considered adopting an orphan to take care of them in their old age, but the first lady had always been in poor health and had been soaking in medicine jars all year round. It was already a struggle for her to take care of herself and her husband, so how could she have the energy to raise another child?

The first uncle gave up the idea of ​​adopting a child out of consideration for his wife's health.

But both of them were at the age of knowing their destiny, and their bodies were getting worse day by day. How should they live in their old age and who would see them off to the end? These problems were actually imminent.

Perhaps because they shared the same suffering, the first uncle Yi Zhonghai had always taken good care of the deaf old lady who lived in the backyard. He raised her like his own mother, took care of her two meals a day, and helped the old lady empty the spittoon every morning.

Although the deaf old lady was old, she was not confused. Instead, she had a pair of eyes that could see through the world.

She saw Yi Zhonghai's worries, so she told him that Sha Zhu in the middle courtyard was a good and reliable child.

Sha Zhu?

This unscrupulous boy, can he do it?

Besides, isn't his father still alive?

Although Yi Zhonghai had some concerns, he had already begun to get close to Sha Zhu and observe him.

Like a father, he often talked to Sha Zhu about some great principles, and psychologically reminded Sha Zhu to respect the elderly, think more about others, be grateful, help others and take care of neighbors, and be broad-minded...

He was worried about gains and losses, and hoped that Sha Zhu could become a selfless and dedicated good person, so that he could really rely on Sha Zhu.

But Sha Zhu was bewitched by the widow Qin Huairu next door, who lent money to people and delivered meals to people, which made Yi Zhonghai very disappointed.

Yi Zhonghai sat at his own dining table with a slightly frowned brow.

In the past two years, he thought about these problems every day when he ate, and he felt that he was a little crazy.

But the fear of the problem of no one to support him in his old age grew bigger and bigger in his heart, and it really became his biggest worry.

Hearing the footsteps of the auntie coming back, Yi Zhonghai looked up and asked, "How is the old lady?"

"It seems a little serious." The auntie sighed, "Next time I go to empty the spittoon in the morning, I will ask the old lady to clean her hands before emptying it. She was too embarrassed to tell me. As soon as I emptied the spittoon, she ran to the toilet. She didn't move her body early in the morning, so she fell at the door of the toilet and sprained her tendons. I asked her to see a doctor, but she refused. Her ankle was already swollen. When I went there, she was applying a hot towel."

"Then you should stay in the old lady's room for the next two days except for cooking." Yi Zhonghai said, "You can take care of her if anything happens."

"Hey." The aunt took two bowls to serve the rice and glanced at a bag of corn noodles on the side, "Is it for Huairu again?"

Yi Zhonghai said "hmm" and said, "I will deliver it to her at night when no one is around. People's gossip is scary. If they see me helping a widow like this, who knows how they will frame me. I delivered noodles several times, and Jia Zhang looked at me with a strange look in her eyes. Her nose was not a nose, and her eyes were not eyes. Her family members are like this. , let alone an outsider?"

"It's just a small place, who do you think you can hide from?" said the aunt, "Maybe someone has seen it a long time ago. Zhonghai, it's useless for you to do this, why don't you just forget it? You sent food to Qin Huairu's house, thinking that her family would be more spacious and would not be so close to Sha Zhu, so that Sha Zhu could stay away from this young widow. But look, is it useful?"

The aunt brought the hot meal to Yi Zhonghai: "Sha Zhu should send it, and Qin Huairu should take it, and she didn't ask for less. You are not Zhang Luo Zhuo wants to introduce a girl to Sha Zhu? Sha Zhu is making excuses, looking down on this and that. In my opinion, he is just thinking about Qin Huairu! "

"We have all been through the same youth, how can I not see through Sha Zhu's thoughts?" Yi Zhonghai stirred the bowl with chopsticks, "He is just interested in Qin Huairu. A young man likes a widow with three children. I really don't know what he is thinking! Apart from other things, Jia Zhang's evilness, can he be forgiven?"

"I also think there is no hope for them, but they are just wasting time like this..." Auntie shook her head worriedly.

"So, this corn flour should be sent." Yi Zhonghai said, "No one can predict what will happen in the future. If they really get together, sending the flour now will plant a good cause, and Qin Huairu will have to remember this kindness in the future. I have met her several times and I can see that she is a sensible child who knows how to be grateful. Otherwise, how could she let Jia Zhang bully her?"

The aunt shook her head and was not optimistic about her husband's idea. Suddenly she thought of something and said, "By the way, a college student moved to the front yard. He is also from your factory. Did you know?"

"Jianshe's younger brother," Yi Zhonghai said.

The auntie exclaimed, "Ah!" and said in surprise, "I didn't know there was such a relationship. Although Jianshe was not brought up by you, I still call you Master. You used to say that Jianshe was more talented than Jia Dongxu."

"Yes, what a pity." Yi Zhonghai sighed, "Today everyone in the factory is talking about this kid, Su Yuanchao, who is an administrative post, and gets a college salary when he enters the factory. He has a bright future. I don't know what kind of relationship he has, but his starting point is not low."

"He is rich, you don't know, today..." The auntie took the opportunity to tell what happened during the day, and also criticized Su Yi's extravagant spending.

Yi Zhonghai pondered for a moment and said, "Well, you can find the roll of cloth in the box later and I will send it to him, as a gift for his new home."

The aunt said "ah" in silence and took two bites of rice. Suddenly, she said, "Hey, I remember you said that Jianshe's parents were martyrs. Then does Su Yuanchao have no family? He is still a college student..."

"The more educated people are, the colder they are." Yi Zhonghai shook his head. "The more you read, the more you think you know. You think you know everything. But how can there be any reason for love in this world? Look at Yan Fugui's family. What kind of child have they taught? Just wait and see. He will regret it."

After a pause, he said, "Time will tell. Don't worry."

The aunt nodded.

The couple finished their meal in silence. One went to wash the dishes and the other went to boil medicine.

"I have so many cousins ​​that I can't count them all. They don't come to visit unless it's important..." At the gate of the courtyard, Sha Zhu hummed a tuneless little song and walked in with a net bag containing three lunch boxes.

At this time, every household had finished their meal and ran back and forth to the sink in the middle courtyard to wash dishes. The courtyard was very lively.

Shazhu smiled and greeted the neighbors with such a loud voice that the whole yard could hear it.

He was so loud on purpose, just to let some people know that he was back.

But some people were working on sewing machines at this time and really didn't hear him speak.

But Jia Zhang heard it.

Bangge didn't want to just eat corn stubble porridge and steamed buns, so Jia Zhang stayed in front of the window and looked outside from time to time. Before Si Zhu passed the hanging flower door, she heard Si Zhu's voice.

"Huairu! Huairu! Silly Zhu is back! Hurry!" Mrs. Jia Zhang was refreshed. She glanced over there and said excitedly, "I think she is carrying a lunch box. Get out quickly!"

"How can I go out like this?" Qin Huairu was wearing an apron with sleeves and was made of rags and threads. "Banggen, go ahead and see what delicious food your stupid uncle has brought you. ?”

"Yes, yes, Banggeng, go ahead!" Mrs. Jia Zhang urged Banggeng again.

Banggeng had been looking forward to this for a long time and ran out without saying anything.

At this time, Shazhu happened to arrive at the door of Qin Huairu's house. Banggeng rushed out and went straight to Shazhu.

"Silly Zhu, what delicious food did you bring?" Banggeng yelled.

"Oh, little ancestor, you yell louder so that the whole hospital can hear it!" Silly Zhu said speechlessly, "Where is your mother?"

He stretched his neck to look at Qin Huairu's house.

"She's helping others make quilts, so she doesn't have time to come out." Banggeng replied, and grabbed what Si Zhu had in hand.

"Make a quilt?" Silly Zhu was stunned, and held on to the net bag without letting go, "Don't worry, tell me first, who is your mother making quilts for? I heard someone said that your mother came back early today, and she also What are you doing by borrowing the purchased truck? "

"A man came to the front yard and said he was a college student. My mother made it for him." Banggeng said.

After thinking for a while, he added bitterly: "That's not a good person! My mother even scolded me and spoke to him because of him!"

Silly Zhu was suddenly startled and asked hurriedly: "What's going on? What's going on? Please tell me clearly!"

"Hey, ask my mother, give it to me quickly, I'm starving!" Banggeng said impatiently.

"It's your turn!" Silly Zhu let go in anger, "Take it, take it, I haven't eaten yet, let your mother fry some peanuts for me!"

"My mother is busy!" Banggan ran back home in a flash.

Silly Zhu stayed for a long time and laughed at himself: "Well, there is absolutely nothing to eat today, and I have to find a way to eat by myself."
