Chapter 186: Chapter 186: The Two Words ‘Unfilial Chapter 186: Chapter 186: The Two Words ‘Unfilial But what else could she do? Now all of her options lay in the hands of the Lin family. If she upset them further, they would truly be holess.
“Father, for the sake of Qingshui and Chushui, please forgive us. Qingshui, Chushui, aren’t you going to kowtow to your Grandpa?” Liu Baixiao continued to play the pathetic card. He quickly turned to his two sons, urging for their assistance.
“Grandpa, it’s , Qingshui. I used to visit your house often, don’t you rember?” Upon catching his father’s glance, Liu Qingshui promptly began to kowtow before the tightly shut door.
At this mont, it didn’t matter if the person inside could see or not. As long as they had food and shelter, he would do anything.
“Grandpa, my father said that from now on, we should revert to the surna Lin. The Liu family doesn’t want us and we no longer want the Liu family. From now on, we are only close to you and Grandma. Grandpa, please open the door.”
From the side, Liu Chushui looked on coldly at his father and elder brother’s pitiable display, sneering inwardly.
He too wanted to settle down here, even if it ant doing farm work in the future and carrying the weight of all the household chores on his shoulders. However, he didn’t have a say here.
This was because over the years, he had only visited this ho once. Just once.
It wasn’t that he didn’t want to visit. He dared not.
The things that his parents and elder brother, Second Sister, had done made him too ashad to face the Lin family. In the Liu family, he never received attention. If he wanted to co to Ya Village, his only option was to walk.
Furthermore, he clearly rembers being seven years old and seeing other children who had grandparents. However, he only had the grandparents from the Liu family.
Out of curiosity to et his father’s parents, he secretly ca to Ya Village. This single visit resulted in him being caught by his mother and getting severely beaten. She accused him of being disloyal to the family.
The seven-year-old him was beaten so severely that he had to lie in bed for nearly a month, and they didn’t even allow the Liu Residence’s servants to call for a doctor.
It was from this experience he understood the harsh and cold reality of social relationships. His own mother had beaten him half to death. When his father found out, he only ca to take a look.
Afterwards…there was no afterwards.
“Chushui, what are you doing? Aren’t you going to kowtow?!”
An angry voice interrupted his reminiscing. Looking up, he saw his father glaring furiously at him.
With no other choice, he bowed and began to kowtow before the door.
“Grandpa, I’m Chushui. I’m bowing to you now. I apologize for failing my duty as a grandchild by not coming to visit you in the past years.”
“Ah!”
Inside the room, upon hearing the phrase ‘failing to perform filial duties’, Lin Laogeng let out a heavy sigh.
“Changyi, co in.”
The sound carried into the courtyard. When Lin Changyi heard Grandpa calling him, he imdiately opened the door and went in.
“Grandpa, what did you call for? Is it because they’re being noisy? Do you want to drive them away? I’m going right away.” Lin Changyi promptly offered before Lin Laogeng even had a chance to speak.
Hearing this, Lin Laogeng looked deeply at his young grandson.
Kids are wise to people’s motives. The words freely said by Changyi extinguished the thoughts which were just forming in Grandpa’s mind.
“Changyi, go to Manghuang Mountain and call back your Grandma and Sister Sangsang. Also, summon your parents and Brother Changhong to co back.”
If Liu Baixiao’s family was going to move in, he couldn’t make this decision on his own. They had to see what everyone else felt. If the family disagreed, he would definitely not allow them to live here.
“Alright, I will.”
When Lin Changyi responded, he just went out again.
