Chapter 530 Selfishness
"Come on that sunny day in Jiujiu. My eighteen-year-old brother is sitting by the river~" Li Jianguo finished his drink and hummed a tune before entering their house. His younger brothers and sisters were living a good life, and he, the older brother,
I am also very happy, plus there is wine to drink and eggs to eat tonight, I am very happy!
"Look at how promising you are. You can be so happy after drinking some wine and eating a few eggs." Liu Manli couldn't help but feel a little angry when she saw her husband's lack of promise. She twisted her butt and turned away from him, not wanting to look at him.
"What's wrong? It's not a good life to have wine and eggs!" Li Jianguo said when his wife was angry and scratched her head.
His wife is good at everything, she cooks, washes clothes, takes care of the house, and is good at work, but she is inexplicably angry, especially in the past six months, sometimes happy and sometimes annoyed, and she doesn't know what's going on.
"Come, God bless, come here, daddy will give you some candy." Seeing that his wife ignored him, Li Jianguo didn't say much, took out a candy from his pocket, and greeted his precious son.
"Sugar, mother, let me go, I want to eat sugar." After saying this, Li Tianyou broke away from Liu Manli's arms and ran towards his father.
"Here, I got this from your grandma, and it's packaged. Come on, daddy will peel it off for you and eat it." Li Jianguo peeled off the candy wrapper and said with a smile.
"Dad, give me the candy wrappers too, give me the candy wrappers too." The little guy ate the candy and wanted the candy wrappers too. This is a good thing. With this candy wrapper, he can show off to the children tomorrow.
"There is no future, none of them have any future." Liu Manli almost made the two of them angry to death.
I don’t know why he fell in love with Li Jianguo in the first place, why he married such a good-for-nothing guy, and now he has given birth to a good-for-nothing guy, and everyone has gone to the city, so he’s just content with eating eggs and drinking wine here.
?
Liu Manli's mind is now full of thoughts about her brother-in-law who went to the city to take advantage of her brother-in-law. She has forgotten that she married him because she fell in love with her man, who is honest, honest and a good farmer.
"What's wrong with us? Look at how good our lives are now. You forgot that we were so happy before when we could eat one more sweet potato. Now we've only had enough to eat for a few days, and we're completely useless."
Li Jianguo was also a little angry. Liu Manli and he came from hard times and gave birth to a son for him. He was indeed a bit spoiled by his wife on weekdays, but today Liu Manli talked about him several times, and the clay figurine was also very angry.
!
"You can eat some candy, okay~" Li Tianyou stuck out his tongue, and there was a piece of candy on it. In Li Tianyou's opinion, he would be extremely happy if he could eat candy, so he also echoed his father and said,
"You guys~ Hey! Jianguo, I admit that life is much better now than before, but Jianguo has gone to the city and has a job. It seems that he can become a formal worker in the future, marry a wife and have children in the city." Liu Manli
He said with a look of hatred for iron.
"Manli, I'm warning you! That's my brother, and I'm happy that he's doing well. If you talk about this again in the future, don't blame me for falling out with you." Li Jianguo directly interrupted Liu Manli and said with a gloomy expression.
"Uuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu by
, look at how happy a child can be just because he eats a piece of candy."
"Uuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu
Something like that.
"Mom, please stop crying. I won't eat any more candy. Give it to mom." When Li Tianyou saw his mother crying, he hurried over and spat out the candy in his mouth, then carefully handed it to his mother and said.
"Mom doesn't eat it. Mom doesn't like sweets. God bless you, let's eat it!" Liu Manli wiped her tears and touched her child's head and said.
Seeing this scene, Li Jianguo couldn't help but feel a pang in his heart. Yes, he is so incompetent that his children can't even bear to eat a piece of candy. Thinking about it, his wife is right. He has been worthless all his life, so why would he want his son to be worthless for the rest of his life?
.
"Hey! Stop crying, what do you want to say?" Li Jianguo rubbed his face and said.
"Qiqi, I want to say that your brother-in-law is now the principal of a university in the city. He is so capable. Let's beg him to see if we can find a job for you in the city as well."
"At the very least, I will transfer your and your child's household registration, so that your child will become a non-agricultural household, and will be considered a city dweller from now on." Liu Manli sobbed twice and finally told the story.
Everyone has selfish motives, and her idea is very simple. Since Xiuzhi can get her brother to the city, she can give him a hand and get his brother to the city.
Her family had analyzed her for a long time, and her brother-in-law definitely had this ability.
Especially the letter from Xiuzhi just now said that Xu Lingjun became the principal of the city and was allocated a house. According to what Accountant Li just said, he was an official in the past. It would be impossible for such a capable person to bring someone to the city.
question.
"Ah, this won't work. I'm the eldest and I have to start a business. My parents are still looking for me to provide for them in old age. Besides, my father has long said that we can't trouble Xiuzhi and her brother-in-law. They helped Jianjun find a job.
I have already exhausted all my kindness and righteousness." Li Jianguo quickly shook his head after hearing what his wife said.
Disappointment flashed through Liu Manli's eyes. Her mother was indeed right. The reason why Xiuzhi did not arrange a job for her brother was to delay Jianguo's family and let Jianguo take care of the elderly at home.
On the surface, they can inherit the Li family's property in the future, but in fact, this little thing from the Li family is nothing compared to going to the city.
"What you said makes it sound like I am unfilial. As the eldest, of course you have to provide for your parents in their old age."
"My father and mother are still in good health now. If Xiuzhi can help you, as long as you establish a firm foothold in the city, it will be great to bring your father and mother to the city to enjoy the blessings in the future."
"You two sisters are all reunited in the city. It's not like now. Two of you are in the ranch city and one is in the village. You are so far away from each other. You haven't seen each other for several years and you are already feeling alienated." Liu Manli said.
I told Li Jianguo what I had been thinking about for a long time.
"This~" Li Jianguo thought about it carefully, and his wife seemed to be right. If the three brothers and sisters all went to the city, they would definitely have to take their parents to live in the city in the future. He had heard what his mother said all the time.
The ranch is good.
"Jianguo, think about it. You are the eldest son of the family and the backbone of the Li family. After all, the Li family still has to rely on you. No matter how Xiuzhi is named Li, she is already married. If she has any future prospects, she will be promised by others.
Family people.”
"As for your brother, of course we are happy that he is doing well, but you are the eldest son of the family, you must not think about the future of our son Tianyou!" Liu Manli's eloquence came to her in no time. It was heartbreaking to hear what she said.
ah!
Or just say that this pillow wind is powerful. Look at Li Jianguo. He is shaken now. As the eldest brother in the family, we can’t compare to his brother-in-law. But if the younger brother continues to suppress him, he will never have an older brother in the future. So majestic!
Especially his own child, who is the eldest grandson of the Li family and the backbone of the Li family. How can he let his son suffer in the future?
"I~ Hey, but my father said not to trouble my sister and brother-in-law." Li Jianguo suddenly remembered his father's words and hesitated again.
As soon as he said these words, Liu Manli was almost angry to death. It was a waste of time to cooperate with her. However, she did not show dissatisfaction this time, but continued to persuade.
"How did you know that your brother-in-law is in trouble? Maybe it is just a small matter to others. Besides, you are not doing it for yourself, but for the sake of the roots of the Li family, so that your parents can live a good life in the city in the future." Liu Manli put her son, who was always eating sweets, into Li Jianguo's arms and said.
"This~" Li Jianguo looked at his son, but he still couldn't make up his mind.
"Let's do this Jianguo. After we harvest the harvest and there's nothing else to do on the team, let's take the kids to the pasture to have a look."
"We haven't seen each other for several years since Xiuzhi got married. There is also Jianjun. I don't know what he is like just by writing letters. We can take this opportunity to help him find out how his partner is."
"We will bring rations then and we won't embarrass Xiuzhi. Let's take a look at the specific situation when we get there. If appropriate, we will find an opportunity to ask around the corner. My brother-in-law is educated, so let's listen to his opinion."
"None of you want to bother your brother-in-law. Maybe he has this plan. You can't tell." Liu Manli finally revealed her final plan.
"Hey~ That's it, I think it's okay to go and have a look. It's true that I haven't seen Xiuzhi for several years. I really miss her. And Jianjun. I don't know if this kid will still be as irritable as before after going to work. ." Li Jianguo said that his wife's suggestion really moved his heart.
