"Originally, it was fine if I didn't want to study. My old man couldn't control me. But because of you, my old man is forcing me to study now," Sang Chunling said confidently. "When I say I don't want to study, take your family as an example."
Every child had a nemesis, and that nemesis was someone else's child.
Other people's children were so outstanding, and other people's children were so smart …
Their vision was always on other people's children, so there was a type of child called "other people's children."
Li Zhuang's parents loved to use the Li family as an example when disciplining their children.
Li He smiled. "Even if I'm not here, there's still Li Ang. Your father will definitely use Li Ang as an example."
"You're boys and I'm a girl. How can we compare?" Sang Chunling was not convinced.
Li He squatted on the doorstep and said lazily, "Then compare with Xi Yue and Seagate."
Xi Yicai only had two daughters, but both of them were very capable. One worked at the county's People's Hospital and the other worked at the county's Chinese Medicine Hospital. Although they weren't very rich, it was a great thing in the countryside. They were like golden phoenixes that flew out of poverty.
"Hmph." Sang Chunling was speechless this time, but she still forced herself to say, "They're both older than me! They're both in technical secondary school, not high school! "
Li He said, "What did they have to study before? What do you have to study now? Technical secondary school was harder than high school in the past, and the acceptance rate was very low. It wasn't something you could get into just because you wanted to."
This was Sang Chunling's second year, so he didn't want to give her another blow.
Sang Chunling pursed her lips and didn't want to talk to Second Brother Li anymore.
Wang Yulan watched Sang Chunling walk away and said angrily, "This girl is in trouble. Her father is so tired every day, and he can't earn much. The car accident happened two years ago, and he still has so many debts. If she had a conscience, she would have taken care of her father long ago. She's not serious every day."
"She's still a little disappointing." Li He sighed. No one could do anything to a daughter like this.
Li Yan came over with Peng Yue. She greeted Li He and then went around the wall to the toilet in the back.
"You're crazy." Wang Yulan not only said that to Peng Yue but also to He Fang.
It was He Fang's first time coming to the Li family's house, so he wasn't used to the toilet here. It was built with mud bricks, and there was only a thin layer of straw on top of it. There was a large manure tank buried inside, and there were two thick boards on top of it. With one step, he could trample several maggots that climbed out of the tank.
Before she even took half a step in, an unpleasant smell made her head numb and her brows furrow. Rhinitis can be cured by this smell, it's really suffocating.
If it was raining, it would be even worse. The water from the outside would flow in, and the manure tank would be filled to the brim. There wouldn't even be a place to stand.
Hence, after she married Li He, she insisted on changing the toilet no matter what. Luckily, Li He was understanding. He drove the tractor to buy bricks and cement, and got Li Long and Liu Four to help build a new toilet.
This was the only one in Li Zhuang.
Every time Wang Yulan went out to visit, people would always tease her about this. Your wife's butt was more valuable than gold, and a toilet cost five to six hundred dollars!
Wang Yulan was often teased until she lost face!
But in front of her new daughter-in-law, she didn't dare to say so much. She could only hold her anger in for a while.
As time passed, she had already forgotten about it. But in front of her, her third daughter-in-law had the same bad habit, and it made her very unhappy.
Li He said, "Aren't you still happy that our toilet is clean?"
"That's nonsense." Wang Yulan turned around and left, unwilling to say more to her son.
Li Pei put his hands in the pockets of his jacket and shrunk his neck as he walked over from Li Fucheng. Li He pulled him over and looked at his ear.
"You're a man, are you looking at my ear?"
Li Pei was so scared that he looked left and right, then said in a low voice, "Uncle, I'm just joking."
"If your old man sees you, he'll skin you alive." Li He threatened, "If you dare to wear any more nonsense, I'll see what happens."
"Got it." Li Pei continued to mutter, "There's no rule that says boys can't wear earrings."
"Say that to your old man. I don't care." Li He kicked him angrily again. He understood these children who followed the trend, but he couldn't accept it.
Li Pei could only helplessly spread his hands and leave. He didn't care about Li He's instructions, feeling like he was the only sober person in a drunken crowd.
After coming out of the toilet, Li Yan pumped water from the well to help Peng Yue wash her hands. Wang Yulan washed the vegetables at the side, then said, "You two stay here for lunch."
Even if she didn't like it, she still had to be enthusiastic. This was a scene.
Li Yan said, "My mother has already cooked it. We'll eat it when we get back."
"Tell your mother to cook less salty food." She also had a wife from another place, and she was also from the north like Peng Yue. Wang Yulan was qualified to make this suggestion.
She had been puzzled by these heretics who didn't eat salty food for a long time. Moreover, after staying in Hong Kong for such a long time, she found it even more unbelievable that they added sugar to their dishes.
"I made most of the dishes." Li Yan smiled and said, "Little Yue and I eat more vegetables and rarely eat meat."
Wang Yulan muttered, "Vegetables are so expensive these days."
She was not at home, and Duan Mei was basically in the county. The family's vegetable garden was abandoned. Even seasonal vegetables such as cabbages, spinach, coriander, and carrots had to be bought from the streets.
Peng Yue's parents arrived at Li Village on the 25th of the year. Li Zhaohui's family gave them a warm welcome. Li Fucheng was old and could no longer drink at the table. As the new head of the Li family, Li Zhaokun made a dazzling appearance and sat at the head of the table with Peng Dihua.
"Big brother, don't worry. The girl won't suffer when she comes to the Li family." After drinking two cups of wine, Li Zhaokun patted his chest and made various guarantees to Peng Dihua.
"Thank you, uncle." Peng Dihua hurriedly raised his glass. He didn't dare to underestimate Li Zhaokun just by looking at the big shiny gold watch on his hand.
Li Zhaokun took off his leather coat and rolled up his sleeves. "Brother, go out and ask around. Our Li family is famous in the whole county, not to mention the whole city. The girl won't be wronged. No one dares to bully her. Keep this in mind."
"That's what you mean." Peng Dihua gave a thumbs up. When he met Li Zhaokun, he suddenly felt that he was a fake Lord Bei. He couldn't even win a conversation with him!
