Liu Xiangling has never been a truly stupid person. The reason why she looks stupid is because her ability does not match her ambition.
But even with her ability, she knew that she had caused a lot of trouble for her family this time.
At the same time, she knew better that if this trouble was solved according to Yoo Shin-hoo's method, her living standard would drop to another level.
Originally, not being able to become a wealthy lady would have been a huge torture for her. Being able to maintain a living standard similar to her previous one at home is her only solace at the moment.
Now, if she doesn't even have this comfort, then why not let her die?
So, when Liu Xinhu was about to come back, she started making trouble at home. When Liu Xinhou came in and saw his daughter making trouble, he felt heartbroken again...
When Liu Xinhou stepped forward to comfort him, Liu Xinhou realized that Liu Xiangling did not want to give money. She also hoped that Liu Xinhou could go to the Liu family with her to make trouble and ask the Liu family to help them pay for it. Or... borrow some from the Liu family.
Money doesn't matter, as long as you don't pay IOUs.
Liu Xinhou was silent. He knew that if he really did this, the last bit of friendship between his family and the Liu family would be gone. A hundred years from now, his mother and daughter may still be suppressed by the Liu family. At that time,
He is really finished. It doesn't matter if he is finished, what will happen to his daughter?
So, no matter how much his daughter cried this time, Liu Shinhou did not obey his daughter's ideas. Because from his point of view, this was the only thing that was best for his daughter. In order to achieve this goal, he even did not hesitate to make his daughter hate him.
This was undoubtedly extremely difficult for him.
But Liu Xiangling doesn't understand! She has been held in the palm of her father's hand since she was a child. She has seen her life getting worse and worse. Now even her father no longer listens to her. How can she accept it?
So...she got depressed...
There were no psychiatrists in ancient times, so this time Liu Xiangling was completely finished. Liu Xinhou had nothing else to do. He could only look at his daughter all day long. Seeing his daughter's appearance, Liu Xinhou's heart was broken.
Only then did he remember Liu Xiangshu and Lu Xu. They had both advised him to discipline his daughter well. But how could he be cruel to his daughter at that time?
Only now did he understand that doting on a child is like killing a child, but it was already too late.
The news that Liu Xiangling was depressed spread quickly. The ancients didn't know what depression was or wasn't. In their opinion, Liu Xiangling was in a daze.
The villagers all felt that this was retribution for Liu Xiangling’s bad deeds, and looking at Liu Xinhou’s appearance as if he had lost a son in his later years, everyone felt that this was just retribution for Liu Xinhou’s blind indulgence of his daughter. Didn’t he like to indulge his daughter? That’s great.
, his daughter is so obsessed that she will never be able to do without his favor in this life, so let him pamper his daughter well.
This is not the worst. The worst thing is that Yoo Shin-hoo's life will be unsustainable. Because after signing the IOU, his living standard was not high. Now that his daughter has become crazy, he has to pay a large amount of money every month.
How can he live with the medical expenses?
In the end, it was Liu Xiangshu who extended a helping hand to their father and daughter.
Liu Xiangshu is still a small official with no real power, but he must have the social entertainment and the expenses of servants in the officialdom. It is very difficult to support it with his meager salary. Fortunately, he is still the Liu family after all.
descendants, so he can still get a monthly quota from the Liu family.
Now, Liu Xiangshu saw that Liu Xinhou and his daughter were having a hard time, so he left his monthly schedule to Liu Xinhou. This was the last bit of filial piety that his former son could show.
The adoption in the Liang Dynasty was different from the adoption in later generations and the recognition of adopted father and adopted son. When you adopt someone else, you just eat their food, and you have no relationship with the previous family at all.
Even if you show filial piety, you can only show filial piety to the family from which you adopted. If you show filial piety to your biological parents, it would be considered unfilial to your current parents.
There is a similar case in the history of Lu Xu's previous life. Emperor Jiajing of the Ming Dynasty wanted to be filial to his biological parents, but was opposed by his officials. In the end, he took back his biological parents for himself after a long struggle.
The power of filial piety.
In the end, Emperor Jiajing was able to win from that "Great Ceremony Incident". One of the very important reasons was that he was "successor without heir", which meant that he only inherited Xiaozong's family business but not his bloodline.
.
In other words, Jiajing did not completely adopt Xiaozong. It was this incomplete adoption that caused so much controversy when he wanted to honor his biological father.
Liu Xiangshu has completely adopted someone else, but still wants to be filial to his biological father. This is undoubtedly an "unfilial" behavior.
It is conceivable that Liu Xiangshu was under great pressure to do this. If it weren't for Liu Xiangshu's current father, his second uncle by blood, he would praise his behavior and personally explain to Liu Xiangshu that Liu Xiangshu was taking care of his uncle.
, Cousin, he can’t even be a junior official.
However, even if he retained his official position with the understanding of his second uncle, his life was greatly affected. At least because of the lack of a monthly salary, his living standard was much worse.
On the other side, with Liu Xiangshu’s monthly money to help him, Liu Xinhu was finally able to make ends meet!
As time went by, perhaps Liu Xiangling thought better of herself. Her illness improved a little, and at the same time she also figured out that the reason why she was where she was today was the result of her father's infinite connivance.
So, she transferred all her hatred to her father. She started to quarrel with him day and night!
Now that there are no servants in their family, Liu Xinhou and his daughter can only take care of the huge yard. Liu Xinhou’s daily life is already very hard, and now that Liu Xiangling is still making trouble with him, he is even more miserable and can only drag it.
The old body can barely hold on.
Fortunately, he also knew that he could not fall. If he fell, his daughter would really be doomed. So no matter how hard he worked, he should eat, sleep, and even exercise every day.
But in Liu Xiangling's view, this meant that the old man wanted to fight her to the end! So she also began to exercise and concentrate on fighting with the old man.
Lu Xu was speechless for a long time after receiving the news. From the looks of it, Liu Shinhou and his daughter will still be entangled in the future.
At this point, Lu Xu could already predict that in a few decades there would be an old woman in their hometown who was mentally ill and living in poverty. Of course, that old woman was Liu Xiangling.
I just don't know if she will remember the days when she was young when she had her father's love and her brother and her original body caring about her.
However, Lu Xu just sighed a little, and he quickly got into work. When winter turned to spring, the situation developed as Lu Xu expected. More and more facts proved that Beiting
