Li Yunqiang hurried ho, he hadn’t been out for such a long ti before. He missed his wife.
When he got ho, he saw his wife with a long face, and she wasn’t happy about his return.
Li Yunqiang’s passionate heart felt like a basin of cold water was poured on it, quickly cooling it down.
The three children were very happy to see their dad back.
"Dad, is the tractor factory big?"
Li Yunqiang forced a smile, "Very big, extrely big. You must study hard, go to school, and work at the tractor factory in the future.
Let tell you, there are many engineers there, I couldn’t even understand what they were saying."
The three little ones giggled.
Liu Cuilan didn’t glance at Li Yunqiang nor speak, just focused on her al.
The children were used to their mom like this, so they didn’t find it strange.
The anger in Li Yunqiang’s heart grew stronger, but since the kids were at ho, he didn’t make a fuss.
Because he took a tractor, he was very dirty, and seeing the look on his wife’s face, he lost his appetite, so he directly found his clothes, realizing the dirty clothes he left were still unwashed, his anger reached its peak.
He still found his clean clothes and went outside to shower.
Liu Cuilan was angry now, upset with Li Yungui, Qu Xiaoli, and even angrier that her husband wasn’t ho.
So, when Li Yunqiang ca back, she didn’t pay him any attention.
But she felt really wronged inside, he saw her angry and didn’t even try to comfort her?
The three kids ran off after eating, and by that ti, Li Yunqiang had finished his shower too.
When he entered the house, he found that the table had already been cleared. There was literally no food for him.
Suddenly, Li Yunqiang felt exhausted, really exhausted.
So, without saying a word, he turned around and left.
But standing on the street, he didn’t know where to go. Eventually, with his head hanging low, he went to his second brother’s house.
Li Yungui was having an afternoon nap but got up when he heard his brother’s voice.
"Yun Qiang, co in, why aren’t you resting?"
Li Yunqiang just sat on the edge of the kang with his head down.
"What’s wrong?"
"Second brother, I’ve had enough."
Li Yungui was taken aback for a mont, "At our age, what’s the point of saying this?"
"Second brother, I was out for all those days, but when I ca back, there wasn’t a word, just a cold face.
And my clothes that I took off before I left weren’t washed. After my shower, I had nothing to eat.
Second brother, what’s the point of living like this?"
Li Yungui understood. "This is being directed at .
A few days ago, she ca looking for your sister-in-law, wanting the quota from my family, probably for her nephew.
The next day I said at the eting, the fifty permanent worker quotas in our village, besides the five for Xiao Wei, can’t be given out.
She’s probably acting up because of this."
"Second brother."
"What? Do you bla too?" Li Yungui imdiately glared; he hadn’t been angry in years.
Li Yunqiang was startled, "No, absolutely not."
"Yun Qiang, what have you beco? Ignoring your own nephews and nieces, just for your own sons?
Fine, go back, in the future we can just interact like ordinary people."
Li Yungui felt really disheartened. Their parents died early, the eldest brother was good at studying, so he had been managing the household.
Since they each started their own families, the brotherly bond had faded more and more.
Li Yunqiang, seeing the disappointnt on his second brother’s face, hung his head low. He said nothing but didn’t move either.
When did it start! That’s right, just after getting married. The eldest brother already had a family then. Every ti he ca back, he went to the second brother’s house; his wife always said the eldest secretly gave things to the second brother.
After one or two tis, he believed it too and distanced himself from the eldest brother?
Only interacted like ordinary relatives. The eldest brother grew more distant from him.
So the relationship reached this point.
He felt awkward seeing the eldest brother’s three kids. Since starting in the village, they’d never eaten a single al at his house.
The second brother was right. How did he turn out like this?
Li Yungui, seeing his brother sitting there, couldn’t be hard-hearted. Qu Xiaoli ca back from getting shoe patterns and was startled, "Yun Qiang, what’s up with you?"
"Second sister-in-law, I haven’t eaten yet."
"Wait a minute, it’s sorghum rice for lunch today. I’ll fry a couple of eggs for you."
Qu Xiaoli said as she went to cook. Li Yunqiang was four years younger than Li Yungui and had lived with Qu Xiaoli for quite a few years. He knew the second sister-in-law was genuinely kind.
"Second brother, I’m going to send Liu Cuilan ho, I’ve had enough."
"That’s sothing you’ve let happen all these years."
Li Yunqiang didn’t speak anymore. When Qu Xiaoli brought in a small basin of fried sorghum rice,
Li Yunqiang then felt truly hungry.
He just buried his head in the food, without saying a word.
Qu Xiaoli felt the awkward atmosphere, so she took the shoe patterns and went out.
After finishing his al, Li Yunqiang cleaned the basin and left.
Back at ho, seeing the main gate locked from the inside, he kicked it open.
Lying inside, Liu Cuilan, who was still angry, was terrified, thinking sothing had happened. She sneaked a look through the window crack and saw it was Li Yunqiang.
Now she felt both angry and afraid, rembering last year’s quarrel.
She also regretted inside; her husband ca ho, she should’ve been nice instead of throwing a tantrum.
Li Yunqiang went straight in, looking coldly at Liu Cuilan on the kang, "Pack your things and leave quickly. This won’t be your ho from now on."
Hearing her husband’s words, Liu Cuilan refused imdiately, "Why?"
"Because this is the Li Family."
"Li Yunqiang, you heartless man. I’ve been with you for so many years, given you four sons, and now that you’re doing well, you don’t want ?"
"I’ve said this before, you weren’t like this earlier.
No more to say, just leave quickly."
"I’m not leaving," Liu Cuilan said loudly, suppressing her fear.
"Fine, if you don’t leave, I will. I won’t co back to this house anymore."
With that, Li Yunqiang turned around to leave.
Now truly scared, Liu Cuilan jumped off the kang, grabbing hold of him.
"You can’t leave, you can’t abandon us."
"How do you expect to react with how you treat ?"
"I was just angry, okay?"
"Then keep being angry. Liu Cuilan, I’m telling you, it’s over for us."
Seeing the determined look in Li Yunqiang’s eyes and his expressionless face, Liu Cuilan was truly frightened.
"Yun Qiang, don’t be like this, you promised to be good to ."
"You also promised to be good to . I was away for such a long ti, and you didn’t wash my clothes, I ca back to no al, and you gave attitude?"
