Listening to these words of the uncle, Liu Qingshan was still very uncomfortable in his heart.

There is a local proverb called: Parents hope that their daughters will become phoenixes and their sons will become dragons, and brothers and sisters hope that their brothers and sisters will be poor.

This means that most parents hope that their children can become dragons and phoenixes and have a good life, but between brothers and sisters, they hope that their brothers and sisters are poorer than themselves.

This may sound strange, but when you think about it, it makes sense.

If you are an only child, you naturally don't have this kind of thought, but if there are many brothers and sisters in the family, the love of your parents will have to be divided equally, and if you want to be recognized by your parents, you have to be better than your siblings.

As a result, a kind of thinking that brothers and sisters hope that their brothers and sisters are poor is slowly derived.

If the other siblings are poor, then their position in the eyes of their parents will be higher, and they will have a better face in front of other relatives.

Although this statement is somewhat cruel, it is undeniable that real-life examples abound.

Fortunately, Liu Qingshan has no brothers and sisters, otherwise, I don't know what will become.

The eldest uncle and the second uncle have many sons, and the brothers have to divide the family land and the love of their parents equally, so that there will be less things in everyone's hands. This is true not only of the fields, but also of the love of parents.

So, despite the fact that everyone is kind on the surface, in reality, who doesn't want to be better than their other siblings?

Only in this way can I become the pride of my parents.

Liu Qingshan patted his uncle's back and comforted: "Uncle, don't be sad, don't be uncomfortable, I believe that my second cousin just can't do superficial work." But if my third cousin encounters something difficult and really needs his help, he will definitely come forward, isn't it my second cousin?"

Although it is said that brothers and sisters hope that their brothers and sisters are poor, it does not prevent the family affection between brothers and sisters that blood is thicker than water.

It's a bit of a contradiction. However, it doesn't seem to be a contradiction.

Although I hope that you are not as good as me and will not steal the limelight from my parents, but, no matter what, we are all brothers and sisters, and I will still lend a helping hand if you need it.

In this way, it seems to make sense.

The second cousin looked at the red-eyed old father, hesitated for a moment, then nodded and said, "Yes, what Qingshan said is right." Dad, the third child is supported by the government, and he can't starve to death without working, so he is so idle that he runs to my house every day when he has nothing to do, and he sits all day, so my wife definitely doesn't welcome him. Because we all have to work and support our families, unlike him, who sits at home and eats. ”

"Then you won't tell him to come less?" said the uncle, "You give him a face without saying a word, what is that called?"

"We didn't say anything, you are now biased in his favor, if we say that he will come less, you will not be able to pick my skin. The second cousin muttered, "Besides, the third child is lame in his legs, and he is not lame in his brain, if we say something to make him come less, he will go back and talk to you about adding oil and vinegar, how can we explain it?"

"Hey, just talk about it. The second uncle said, "You are the eldest brother, the second family is not easy, you see now, he himself is a grandfather at a young age, not to mention raising a son and daughter, but also a grandson, he must be tired and tired to make money, how can you have so much time to chat with the third child, you should talk about the third child when you go back, let him plant some vegetables if he has nothing to do, don't go to other people's houses and sit down and don't leave, that will only delay people's work." ”

"yes. The second aunt also spoke, "The third child is lame, everyone feels sorry for him, and you are even more so, but you can't favor him because the third child is pitiful, you also have to pity the eldest and the second child, this old family has suffered such a big blow before, but in order to live, you have to pretend that nothing happens, and you have to live like this, the eldest daughter-in-law is filial, and takes care of you, and takes care of the third, you can't take it for granted, although their life is better, but the discomfort in their hearts is no less than that of the third." The second family is the same, the daughter is disobedient, there are two younger sons, plus the little grandson, now the husband and wife have to raise four children, it is not easy, you can't favor the third brother because he is lame, you have to let their two brothers let him. ”

The second aunt's words were very pertinent, and the eldest uncle listened to it and had some reflections.

Over the years, he has indeed favored the third child more because of the disability of the third leg.

Now that the second brother and daughter-in-law said it, he did feel that his previous approach was a little biased.

He let out a long sigh and said, "If you think it's hard to raise four children, tell me that I can still dance the lion and get the money." Your eldest brother doesn't need my money, the third child also has the government to support, if you are short of money, you can speak, I can help, I will definitely help you, although I have a preference for the third child, but that is also because of the third leg disability, you are all good, you can make money, you are all married, if I don't treat him better, he looks at you, and then thinks about himself, he may not know how uncomfortable he is. So, don't say I'm biased, I'm just afraid that the third child won't think about it and will give up on himself. ”

"Dad. The second cousin heard his father's heartfelt words, and also said what was in his heart, "Don't worry, the third brother is also my own brother no matter what, as long as I have a bite to eat in the future, I will not miss his share, and when the children grow up, I will also let them be filial to the two uncles and uncles, and I will not ignore them." ”

The uncle's nose was sour, and tears came up again.

It is said that raising children to prevent old age, raising children to prevent old age, he has three sons, but only the second child has a queen, although the eldest is married, but according to the age of the two of them who are nearly forty years old, I am afraid that they will not have children in the future.

The third child doesn't even have a daughter-in-law, so naturally there is no queen. Fortunately, the second child was angry and gave birth to three children, so that even if the eldest and third child have no queen in the future, they can still count on a few nephews and nieces to support them.

Liu Qingshan suddenly remembered his second uncle Liu Erliang.

I don't know if the reason why the second uncle has not separated from the uncle is also because of this.

Because he has no wife and children, he pins his hopes for the elderly on his nephews and nieces?

Although it is not impossible, I always feel that his situation is completely different from the situation of his three cousins.

The second cousin is the only one who has children, but he is different from Liu Daliang, who is lazy and lazy, he himself is a very diligent person, otherwise, he would not have been able to build a new house even after raising a few children.

Of course, there must be a part of the uncle, but if the second cousin doesn't work hard, it is impossible to live like this with the uncle's meager subsidy.

On the other hand, Liu Daliang is really a rare lazy man in the world. also has three children, and he has a government subsidy of more than 1,000 yuan every month, but instead of making good use of the convenience to work hard to make money, he also uses the government subsidy of more than 1,000 yuan every month to gamble or invite those fox friends to dinner.

This comparison is judged from the top.

It's just that I pity the second uncle.
