"Village chief, go and persuade my family Yongbo, this cub is stunned!" As soon as Li Huahua spoke, tears fell down in a loud voice.

"What's wrong with Yongbo?" Hearing that it was Zhao Yongbo, Zhao Xiaohe immediately got up.

Although he doesn't like Li Huahua very much, he still has a very good impression of Zhao Yongbo and Zhao Yongjia, and he really cares about Zhao Yongbo.

"This cub hasn't eaten a grain of rice or drunk a sip of water for three days. ”

"What's the matter?!Are you out of love or sick?" Zhao Xiaohe hurriedly asked.

As one of the many commando members, Zhao Yongbo was very active in participating in the radish donation in the first two times, but he didn't come in the last two times, only said that he accidentally twisted his foot, and after Zhao Xiaohe arranged for the backup members to go up, he also deliberately asked Zhao Zhiyang to go over and take a look, and after learning that it was okay, he didn't take it to heart. At this moment, he suddenly heard Li Huahua say such a thing, and he was suddenly a little worried.

"I didn't fall out of love, I didn't get sick, I just ......" Li Huahua suddenly swallowed.

"What's it?" asked the anxious Zhao Wenming.

"You say. Zhao Jiacheng was also worried.

They are all the same as Zhao Xiaohe, although they hate Li Huahua, they don't hate Zhao Yongbo.

Li Huahua lowered her head and lifted the corner of her clothes to wipe her tears, before she choked up and spoke again: "This kid is stupid, he has to ask me to return the money for selling radishes to the village that is higher than other people's families." If I didn't say yes, he just lay on the bed and vomited. A few days ago, I ate and drank a little, but three days ago I started not eating or drinking. My family can't persuade him, the village chief, the accountant, you can help me persuade him. My radish is so good that it only sells for four cents a pound, and I don't ask for more money from everyone, and it's not too much, you say this kid can't figure it out at first glance?"

Zhao Xiaohe, who understood the reason, didn't expect Zhao Yongbo to be so serious, so he immediately walked out and asked Li Huahua: "Does Yongbo mean that if you don't return the money, he won't eat?"

That's what he meant. Village Chief, you all see how hard it is for me and Lagen and my parents-in-law to grow these turnips, right? We make all our hard-earned money! It's rare that the radish market is okay this year, and we are still counting on saving some money for Yongbo to marry his daughter-in-law, who knows how ...... he is?"

"Didn't you let Yongjia persuade Yongbo?" Zhao Wenming, who was walking behind Zhao Xiaohe, interrupted Li Huahua's words.

"Don't mention this dead girl!" Li Huahua's face suddenly changed, and she began to curse, "Yongbo hunger strike was caused by her! I don't know how her teacher taught her! I can't let her go to this school anymore, otherwise the whole person will have to be abolished! If the ban is lifted, I will find a matchmaker to marry her!"

Zhao Jiacheng couldn't listen to it, and immediately protected Zhao Yongjia: "Don't say such angry words, how old is Yongjia?"

"I'm not talking angry! It's also a scourge for this girl to stay at home!" Li Huahua became more and more angry the more she spoke, "I used to ask her father to lower the price, and after I scolded her, I went to ask her brother to steal the money and return it to the village chief, and after I snatched the money back, she used her brother's hunger strike to force me to return the money." I really owe this dead girl a lot in my first life, and she came to harm me like this in this life. If Yongbo had three long and two short, I would have to skin her!"

Zhao Xiaohe remembered that he heard the dispute between Zhao Lagen's family when he was patrolling that day, and only then did he understand the real reason why Zhao Yongjia was scolded that day, but he didn't expect Zhao Yongjia to let Zhao Yongbo force his parents to return the money in such a top way, and he regretted for a while that Zhao Yongbo didn't talk to the two brothers and sisters that day he stole the money.

Zhao Wenming and Zhao Jiacheng saw that Zhao Xiaohe was silent, and they didn't bother to pay attention to Li Huahua for a while - they could see Li Huahua's resentment against their daughter, and if they protected Yongjia again, it would only make Li Huahua more angry and quarrel with them.

At this time, it was still early in the morning, and everyone was stuck at home during the epidemic, even if they got up early, there was nothing to do, so the village was quiet, and it was rare to see a few villagers exercising in their yards along the way.

When Zhao Xiaohe and his entourage came to Li Huahua's house, they saw Zhao Lagen and his father Zhao Fengyan squatting against the wall smoking cigarettes, while his mother Wan Juhua was sitting on the threshold wiping her tears.

As soon as Wan Juhua saw them enter the courtyard, she hurriedly got up: "You guys save my grandson, he ......."

"Eh!" Seeing her body tilted to the side, Zhao Xiaohe, who was walking in the front, rushed over to support her with an arrow step, "Chrysanthemum woman, slow down!"

"Leave me alone, go and save my grandson. Wan Juhua was dizzy for a while because she got up too quickly, but she didn't care about herself, closed her eyes and calmed down, while urging them to enter the house urgently.

Zhao Xiaohe handed over Wan Juhua to Zhao Jiacheng, he walked into the house quickly, and under the guidance of Li Huahua, he went straight to the back room where Zhao Yongbo was.

As soon as I entered the room, I saw Zhao Yongjia sitting on the edge of the bed, looking at the door with tears in his eyes, while pointing to the quilt and saying, "My brother is here." ”

I saw that someone in the quilt was lying on his side, but he finished wrapping the quilt, if Zhao Yongjia hadn't spoken out first, Zhao Xiaohe wouldn't have been able to determine who the person in the quilt was.

"Yongbo?" Zhao Xiaohe walked to the side of the bed and shouted softly.

The person in the quilt moved slightly, but he didn't turn around, didn't lift the quilt, and didn't respond.

"My brother has been feeling guilty and sad about the family selling radishes at a high price, he ......"

"Isn't it you, a dead girl?" Li Huahua interrupted her daughter fiercely, "If it weren't for you, would your brother be like this? You just want to kill your brother! Let me tell you, if your brother has three long and two short, I will be the first to strangle you! Look at your ......."

"It's okay with Jiajia! Don't always scold Jiajia!" Zhao Yongbo slammed off the quilt and sat up, glaring at his mother, "It's my own business! I'm not a child!"

Immediately, he rushed to Zhao Xiaohe, "Village Chief, this is our own family's business, don't worry about it." You go back first. ”

"Yongbo, I know you have a good heart, and I also understand your desire to give love to the epidemic area," Afraid of annoying Li Huahua again, Zhao Xiaohe persuaded Zhao Yongbo not to bring Zhao Yongjia as much as possible, "But you really can't be so angry about the radishes, what price the donated radishes sell, it's not who alone has the final say, it's the result of our discussions, your radishes are really very good, it's really not too much to be a dime a pound higher than others." ”

"Long Hao collects eight or nine cents a pound of radishes from your family. If your family is willing to sell it to the village for four cents a pound, it is tantamount to showing love to the epidemic area! Don't drill into such a bull's horns. Zhao Wenming added.

"Yes, yes, the village chief and the accountant are right, Yongbo, our radishes are really very good!" Li Huahua hurriedly answered and persuaded her son, "You don't know how carefully I and your father and grandparents serve these radishes, we are busy in the field all day long." I dare to say that no one in Zhaojiazhou has the time that our family spends in the radish field. ”

Zhao Yongbo didn't say anything, sat on the bed, hugged his knees, and buried his head deep in his knees.

"Besides, it's not just your radishes that sell for four cents a pound, but other people's good radishes also sell for four cents a pound, don't believe you ask civilization. Zhao Xiaohe said while praising the old secretary's thoughtful arrangements in his heart.

Zhao Wenming immediately nodded and said: "Yes, the radish of Second Uncle Xiaohe's family is also very good, and it is also sold for four cents a catty!"

"Alright, don't think about it. Zhao Xiaohe patted Zhao Yongbo's shoulder gently, "Get up and eat something." Don't you still want to patrol? How can you have the strength to patrol without eating?"

Hearing Zhao Xiaohe say this, Li Huahua was about to go out: "The food is warm in the pot, I'll serve it." ”

"Mom. ”

"Huh?" Hearing his son shouting to himself, he only said that there was a turnaround, Li Huahua was overjoyed, and responded loudly, turning around quickly.

"I'm sorry. Zhao Yongbo raised his head, and his eyes were a little red.

Unexpectedly, her son said this, Li Huahua was stunned for a moment, then immediately waved her hand happily, and choked up: "As long as you are willing to get up to eat, you don't need to say anything else." What do you want to eat? Mom will make it for you. ”

Zhao Yongbo didn't respond, but looked at Zhao Xiaohe, his eyes full of decadence: "Village chief, I'm too useless." I'm 20 years old, I haven't made any money, I don't care about my family, and I have to worry about my parents all the time. I really feel like I'm ...... myself."

Afraid that her son would be stupid, Li Huahua hurriedly interrupted: "Son, don't say that, my mother is willing to worry about you, as long as you eat obediently." ”

"I'm really useless. I will not be productive in my life, and people like me are not worthy of marrying a wife at all, and marrying a wife will also cause my parents to suffer. Leave me alone. After Zhao Yongbo finished speaking, he retracted into the quilt and wrapped himself tightly with the quilt.

Li Huahua saw that she was back to the beginning, and cried again.

Zhao Yongjia didn't cry, got up and lowered his voice and said weakly to Zhao Xiaohe: "Village chief, can we go outside to talk?"

Thinking that she was closest to Zhao Yongbo, Zhao Xiaohe took a deep look at Zhao Yongbo, who was motionless in the bed, nodded, and turned out of the room and came to the courtyard.

"I'm sorry. In the courtyard, Zhao Yongjia bowed deeply to Zhao Xiaohe and Zhao Wenming, and then choked up and spoke slowly, "I know that many people in the village hate my mother, because she is stingy, calculating, and takes advantage of small advantages, and can show her old face for a dollar, this kind of person is really annoying, although I don't like her behavior, but I have never disliked her, because I know that everything she does is to make me and my brother live better, and I don't want us to be inferior in front of others." She saved money for two things: one was to marry my brother's daughter-in-law, and the other was to provide me with college. She is the thinking of the older generation, thinking that it is natural for parents to pay their son to marry a daughter-in-law, and she also told me to study hard, not to live a shameless life like her in the future - although every time she gets angry, she will say that I am not allowed to study anymore, and she will marry me, but I know that it is just a way for her to get angry, and the anger is gone, and the words will pass. All her selfishness in the eyes of others is selfless for me and my brother, she herself is reluctant to eat and wear, busy all day long, only in her forties, but looks older than sixty-year-olds. I don't dare to expect you to understand my mother, but I hope you try not to worry about her, and when my brother and I are capable, we will definitely repay you. ”

Although I had heard Zhao Longhao and Chen Lanlan mention Zhao Yongjia's sensibility, hearing it with their own eyes at this time still made Zhao Xiaohe couldn't help but be moved, sighed and waved his hand: "You don't have to worry about this, it's your brother who has to worry about it now." ”

"My brother is introverted, not good-looking, his family is poor, his feet are a little lame, he has low self-esteem, and the love in Wuhan hit him very hard, and now the people in the village are actively contributing to the fight against the epidemic, he feels that he can't help much, and he is still dragging his feet, and his frustration is even stronger, and people have become more decadent. I found out that something was wrong with him and persuaded my dad to lower the price of turnips, but I didn't have the weight to speak, and then my brother also went to persuade my parents, but he didn't persuade him. My brother was very sad, he ate significantly less food, and began to have insomnia, I was afraid that he would not be able to think about it, so he gave him this idea of stealing money to donate, originally I was thinking that my mother would have no choice if the money was donated, and then took the opportunity to persuade my brother to work hard to make money and return to his parents, giving him motivation and direction, but I didn't expect this mother to be finally asked back by my mother, and the family continued to sell turnips, which caused a heavier psychological burden on my brother, so the situation is getting worse and worse, and I don't know what to do now. Zhao Yongjia said as he spoke, covering his face and crying.

Zhao Xiaohe and Zhao Wenming didn't know what to do for a while, they looked at each other and didn't say a word for a long time.

"Creek. This one is up to you. Just when Zhao Xiaohe and Zhao Wenming didn't know what to do, Wan Juhua suddenly came over and stuffed a red cloth bag into Zhao Xiaohe's hand.
