Fourth Brother's idea was to wash his hands of the matter and leave, leaving Li He and his family scratching their heads.
"I'm curious. Why did he change after coming back? He doesn't go to town or the county. Other than playing mahjong, he just stays at home." Li Long couldn't help but laugh. He really couldn't say anything to his father.
Anyway, he had seen a lot of jokes about his father since he was a child, so he wasn't surprised at all.
"You can't really tie him up on the street, can you?" Yang Xuewen couldn't help but laugh, but when he saw Li Mei rolling her eyes at him, he held it back.
"How can you think of that? If you don't know how to talk, go away." Li Mei said angrily, "Don't you know his temper? If you really annoy him, he won't be willing to stay at home, let alone go to Hong Kong. He won't let you touch him. "
"Unless, of course, I take all his money."
Wang Yulan, who had been sighing and refusing to speak, finally spoke.
She washed the last few bowls and chopsticks in the pot. Without looking for a cloth, she wiped her wet hands on her coat and continued, "Who knows where he keeps his money? There's a password in his passbook."
"He's afraid of cars. How dare he run around?" Duan Mei was the most puzzled.
Didn't they say he was sick?
If he was afraid of cars, he wouldn't have gone far. Without a car, where could he go?
Moreover, on the way back from Hong Kong, he took a bus and a train. He didn't seem to be afraid of cars at all!
"I'm afraid that he'll be angry. If he's angry, he can do anything. If he's not angry, he's just a little mouse." Li Mei was the eldest in the family. She wasn't like Wang Yulan, who always coaxed her father. So, aside from her feelings for her father, she knew her father better.
When Li Zhaokun was as timid as a mouse, he wasn't as good as Mouse Wang. But when he was stubborn and a bastard, he was stronger than Mouse Wang. He was stupid and bold, and he wouldn't listen to anyone!
Controlling his money didn't mean you could control him!
I can keep his money, but I can't keep his heart!
Back in those days, he was penniless and had to fight with people. He was a man who dared to roam Jianghu with a faded wooden chest on his back!
When she was young, her father would leave at the slightest disagreement. He walked quickly along the embankment of the Huai River. She wanted to chase after him, but gradually, she couldn't keep up with him. She watched as his silhouette slowly became shorter and shorter until it completely disappeared.
Sometimes she could see her father smoking in the heaving meadows.
Nothing could be seen, only the sparks from the cigarette and the unmelted snow, and the whistling of the north wind.
But she could still imagine her father letting her ride on his shoulders for a while if she would let him kiss her.
She would occasionally cover his eyes, but he wouldn't get angry. He would chuckle and pretend to be drunk as he stumbled along the road.
He only threatened, "If you don't let go, I'll throw you into the river."
The Huai River was covered in ice. It was completely cold.
"Loser!" Someone shouted at him from afar.
He had a shameful reputation his whole life.
Riding on his shoulder, she could feel him visibly shiver.
"Why aren't you going to work so early in the morning? Where are you going to die?"
The villagers didn't want to lower themselves to his level.
"I'm going to see a friend."
He spoke. His mind was full of lies, and they came out as soon as he opened his mouth.
Listening to his nonsense, it seemed as if he really had a friend.
"Do you have cigarettes?" The person continued to ask.
"Here." Her father hurriedly took out matches and a box of cigarettes from his pocket. He smiled fawningly, so much so that his yellowed teeth could be seen. He handed them over.
Sometimes, her heart ached for him. She would also think that her father wasn't a useless person. He could walk the streets and sing the Huai River's folk tunes. They were very pleasant to the ear, melodious and melodious.
He could weave wicker baskets. On both sides of the Huai River, there was no one more skillful than him.
He could strike gongs and play drums. Every family's weddings and funerals couldn't do without him.
She didn't coax her father. Sometimes, it was just because she was angry.
No matter how hard it was, he wouldn't cry. He would still smile mischievously.
He was an infuriating and heart-wrenching person!
He had been running away all his life!
"What are you talking about?" Wang Yulan was annoyed. How could a daughter talk about her own father like that!
Moreover, it was in front of her two wives.
"Ah Niang, it's okay. Eldest Sister didn't mean it." He Fang hugged Wang Yulan's shoulder and comforted her. "We all know father's temper."
"You can't say that!"
Wang Yulan thought that this was spreading the dirty linen of the family!
His wife was an outsider!
They definitely couldn't be on the same side as her old couple!
She had always felt sorry for her man all her life. He was beaten until his nostrils bled, but he could still laugh and stuff a ball of toilet paper. She knew that he was actually a gentle person. He was timid and always tolerated others.
After his son and daughter became successful, his nostrils really became high.
She knew that he was proud of his daughter and son, but he just didn't say it.
He looked for his daughter and son for money, not really for money. He just wanted to show his existence.
He was afraid, afraid that his daughter would hate him, afraid that his son would dislike him.
She felt wronged for her man. Except for her, no one was willing to really understand him.
"This flower is beautiful. Pluck it for me."
"Don't say pluck flowers. I'll pluck the moon in the sky for you!" He was young, cute, and a handsome guy. He always said sweet things to her.
She couldn't get enough of it.
Thinking of how good he was and thinking of how he was now, she couldn't stop her tears from falling.
Her man was a person who had a hard life all his life!
"Hey, what is this!" Li He didn't know whether to laugh or cry. He was just about to find a towel to wipe her tears, but Li Mei had already brought it over.
"It's a big deal." Li Mei was already used to her mother's look, so she was very serious about wiping her tears.
"Ah …" Suddenly, Wang Yulan's strength seemed to be sucked out of her body. She screamed twice and was about to collapse to the ground.
"What's wrong!" Li Long was quick and immediately held his mother who was falling to the ground.
"Take her to the hospital." Li He pinched his mother's Renzhong, but there was no response. He panicked a little and put her on his shoulder. He said to Li Long, "You drive. Hurry up."
For a moment, the whole family was in a mess. No one had thought of this.
Wang Yulan didn't react at all even after she was sent to the car. It was as if she had been immobilized. Her eyes were blank and she was motionless. Only the rise and fall of her chest could make people feel at ease.
"You guys take care of the child at the back." Li He pushed away He Fang who was about to follow them into the car.
"Oh yes, there's still the child." Duan Mei remembered.
On the small road out of the village, when they were about to turn on the bridge, Li He said, "To the county hospital."
