Seeing this, Li Wenhao also saw that his sister was obviously serving a meal for his grandmother, and he saw that his grandmother was talking with a cold face. He hurriedly took a bowl of rice and handed it to his grandmother.

When Li Fei heard it, he bent over and stiffened his hands, and his parents on the table watched. No one spoke.

She had no choice but to give the meal to her father, "Dad." ”

Li Chenghua answered, took the bowl to his hand, picked up the chopsticks, and lowered his eyes to look at the food, "Let's eat!"

Su Zhen looked at her granddaughter who was about to sit down, and said coldly: "By the way, the chickens and ducks in the shed haven't been fed yet!

Li Fei looked up at her grandmother and saw that she was looking at her, and her eyes were always indifferent. There was a commanding tone in the words.

She didn't dare not really go. Although she didn't understand why she wanted to let herself feed the chickens and ducks at this time.

"Mom, it's the same after eating. Lin Fang felt sorry for her daughter and knew that her mother-in-law was deliberately picking on thorns.

"Then I'll go?!" Su Zhen looked at Lin Fang, who felt sorry for her daughter, "This person wants to eat, and the chickens and ducks also want to eat." I don't know who forgot. This can't go yet?!"

She put down the dishes and chopsticks, sighed coldly, and looked at the dishes in front of her, "When those chickens and ducks starve to death, we can add vegetables." No, I have no money, so I can only eat vegetarian every day. ”

Li Fei heard that there was something in his grandmother's words, and he also held back something to say in his heart.

"Go ahead, don't forget it later. Li Fei was about to speak, but saw his father open his mouth.

She had no choice but to put down the bowl in her hand and go to get the bucket with the leftovers.

Seeing that his sister didn't say anything, Li Wenhao turned around and left and went to the kitchen. He felt that his grandmother was a little excessive, and he pouted and said, "Grandma, isn't it the same to feed it after eating?" ”

"I can't stop your mouth when I eat, so what's wrong with letting her go?!" Su Zhen put vegetables in her grandson's bowl.

After Li Fei finished feeding the chickens and ducks, he washed his hands. When I entered the house, I saw that they were still eating, but I saw that my grandmother still didn't ask me to eat, but was just serving vegetables to my younger brother.

She just stood and watched, and at this time her father and mother also looked over, and even her younger brother looked up at her, and quickly said, "Sister, hurry up and sit down to eat!"

Seeing that she didn't move, he just looked at them. Li Wenhao knew that this was his sister who was really angry, so he quickly got up, but saw that his grandmother immediately looked at it with a straight face.

"Grandma, my sister hasn't eaten yet!" he hurriedly beckoned his sister to sit down opposite.

"Eat your meal, you also want to stand like your sister?" Su Zhen looked at Li Fei, who had been standing still, and saw that she was clubbing and did not speak. She put the dishes and chopsticks down.

Li Fei was angry, she knew that her grandmother did it on purpose.

She had been holding her breath since last night, and wanted to ask her old man, why she didn't let herself go to school because she didn't have money, but now she didn't see it in her eyes.

Su Zhen sighed, lowered her head and picked up the chopsticks to pick up the vegetables and said, "It's okay for you to just stand like this, it seems that you have grown up and have a big temper." When you grow up, then help your family more. ”

"Feifei, it's not big or small, sit!" Li Chenghua put down the dishes and chopsticks lightly, looked at his daughter who was standing, and saw that she was twisting her temper. He glanced at Lin Fang on the side and motioned for her to pull her daughter to sit down.

Li Fei put aside his hand, ignoring his mother's obstruction. clenched his right hand, and looked at his grandmother's face, "Grandma, didn't I help the family?"

Su Zhen just picked up the bowl, and as soon as she said this, she immediately put down the bowl again, her face still showing displeasure, "Grandma's eyes are not blind, she can see - you are not at home every day, go out to paint." The money you make is far less than what you can do to buy paints. ”

"You can also see that our family only relies on those chickens and ducks, and your father's body needs to be replenished. You said you're such a big person, and you don't know what you want to ......."

Lin Fang saw that her mother-in-law wanted to teach Li Fei a lesson, and she saw that the dishes were going to be cold, "Mom, Feifei didn't mean it." Feifei, hurry up and sit down to eat. ”

"Don't talk! You just feel sorry for her, and you are used to her! You are about to become a happy daughter, but the conditions of our family are not to be able to stretch out your hands and eat to open your mouth! When Su Zhen heard that Lin Fang wanted to protect her daughter, she was angry and dissatisfied.

Li Fei stood motionless, listening to her grandmother's preaching.

"Tell me, as a sister, you let you work as if you have been greatly wronged. ”

For a while, no one else at the dinner table spoke, and Li Fei stood alone, listening to his grandmother's sharp criticism. Today she wanted to hear what her grandmother was going to say.

"Sister. Li Wenhao saw that his sister's eyes were red, he got up, "Grandma, don't talk about it, my sister is also very hard to paint outside." ”

"Who doesn't think about this family, I'm old, I can't do a handful of old bones, I have no ability. Su Zhen pretended to sigh, "Feifei, where to do things is not to do." You should also feel sorry for your father, how difficult it is for him to raise you so hard. ”

Li Fei's eyes were red, and when he looked at his father, he still couldn't help but cry aggrieved.

When the father saw his daughter's red eyes, he frowned and felt worried. But I couldn't say anything for her, put down the dishes and chopsticks in my hand, and I didn't have an appetite to eat.

Seeing that my father was sitting silent, he remained silent. She plucked up the courage to speak, and said in a choked voice: "I know it's not easy, so what do you say I should do?

Lin Fang listened, she got up and grabbed Li Fei's arm, "Feifei......"

"You told her to paint to make money? Do you still want to be a painter? Your grandfather...... Survive until you die to become famous. You want our family to spend money with you to let you have such an unrealistic dream!" Su Zhen's tone was cold and hard. In the end, she slapped the table in anger.

was so frightened that the people next to him didn't dare to speak, even if Li Fei had already opened up at the moment, he couldn't face it now, pointing at her grandmother who was scolding.

Li Fei finally understood, this is already obvious, grandma will never because of how hard she works to learn to paint, no matter how hard she never cares.

She bit her lip and didn't cry out. Turned around and ran straight out of the house.

"Feifei-" Lin Fang hurriedly followed and ran out.

Su Zhen said to her son: "Look at it, your good daughter, it's still unspeakable!"

"Mom, you don't have to talk about it. Li Chenghua got up and persuaded.

"What? I said it wrong?! It's not that you didn't make it clear to her, and you let her go out and paint all day. should let her learn from the granddaughter of the Lao He family next door, that is really for the sake of this family. ”

"Grandma......" Li Wenhao couldn't listen to it anymore and wanted to help persuade him.

"Haohao, you eat, don't follow your sister. Su Zhen interrupted him with a word.

"I'm full. Li Wenhao was worried about his sister, so he got up directly and followed out.

……

Li Fei didn't go back to the room, she ran to the utility room and closed the door. chose to hide quietly in the house alone, not wanting to listen to grandma's words anymore.

The room was dim, and she didn't have the lights on, just leaning against the only clean desk.

After a while, she heard footsteps, and she could tell it was her mother's footsteps.

She immediately wiped the tears from her face and turned to look down to sort out her drawing. She took a deep breath and coughed lightly, nearly choking.

Hearing the sound of the door opening, she didn't raise her head, pretended not to cry, and kept sorting out the scroll in her hand. Yu Guang saw his mother coming over and found her standing at the door looking at her.

She held a painting in her hand, lowered her head and sorted it out, rolling it up and rolling it up. Seeing that her mother didn't speak, she just looked at herself quietly. She tugged at the corners of her mouth, "Mom, what's the matter?" and tried to face it with a smile, but found that even her voice was choked.

Lin Fang stood at the door, entered the house and closed the door, and the room suddenly became dark.

When Li Fei saw her mother reach for the light, she turned around and went to clean up the painting in the corner.

"Feifei......" Lin Fang walked to her daughter's side and saw that she didn't say a word.

Li Fei squatted on the ground, smelling a damp musty smell on the ground, and she carried the painting directly onto the table. I opened the bag and wanted to put all the paintings away.

"Feifei......" Lin Fang reached out and stroked her shoulder, "It's okay, your grandmother has always been like this, don't be sad, huh?"

Mom comforted softly, and in an instant Li Fei broke down and cried.

"Mommy......" She trembled her shoulders, and her mother gently patted her back, but she wanted to cry even more, and the words choked in her throat.

"Feifei, it's okay. Lin Fang saw that her daughter was crying, and her eyes were wet. She doesn't want anything, she just wants her daughter to go to college smoothly.

Li Fei held his painting in his hand and closed his lips. Countless thoughts flashed through her heart, she wanted to give up, but she was still unwilling.

She reached out and took out the hundred yuan she had earned today and gave it to her mother, looking at the money, she thought of what her grandmother said.

Not enough money to buy pigments -

"Mom...... I...... If you don't study, you won't go to any university......" Li Fei said in a choked voice, her moist eyes lowering her eyes as she stared at the pile of unsellable paintings in her painting bag.

"Feifei......" Lin Fang looked at her daughter in surprise.

She looked at her mother, blinked her moist eyelashes and said, "Mom, I know it's difficult at home...... I have received an acceptance letter from Tongcheng University. I can't read it anyway, but it also shows that I worked hard, and I'm not bad!"

She thought that this was good news to tell her mother, that she had worked hard and that she had not let her mother down......

Lin Fang looked at her daughter with wide eyes, "Feifei, really? You really got the admission letter from Tongcheng University?" She didn't know how happy she was when she heard it, grabbed her daughter's arm, and looked at her daughter happily.

"I got it the day before yesterday. ”

"That's great! Mom knows you're going to get in. Lin Fang's face was full of joy.

Li Fei knew that her mother would be happy for her, she nodded, still very disappointed. She wanted to give up, but seeing the smile on her mother's face, her heart began to tangle.

She put all the paintings in a large painting bag, and looked at the utility room, which was about to be stuffed with things, and there was everything in it, all of which were worthless.

Seeing that her daughter didn't speak again, Lin Fang held her daughter's hand and said, "Feifei, don't just give up, there must be a way, and my mother will definitely find a way to solve it......"

"Mom, the tuition fee for the art academy is very expensive, forget it...... I make money by painting like this, and I can do anything else. ”

"Feifei ......"

"Mom, don't say it anymore, you can make money wherever you go, believe me, okay?" she didn't want her mother to shake her resolve again, even if she didn't have a choice now.

"Feifei, how can this be the same?! It's a prestigious university! Not everyone can get in, and my mother won't allow you to give up like that! There is a way. ”

"It's not good if you get in, you heard what grandma said......"

Neither of them spoke when they heard a voice outside the door.

The younger brother had been standing outside the door and had heard his mother and sister talking. He was about to turn around, but he happened to see his grandmother come out of the house.

"Hao Hao, tell your mother to clean up the dishes and chopsticks, it's dark this day, and the dishes outside have not been confiscated, this is to wait for the frost to fail!" Su Zhen walked under the eaves and took the basket to put away the long beans that had been drying for a long time.

Li Fei and his mother both heard their grandmother's words inside.

"Mom. Go ahead and get busy! I'll clean up. Li Fei didn't mention dropping out of school again.

Looking at the jar of pickles that were being helped into the utility room one after another. She had packed up all the paper and paint, and was about to make room for it.

"Don't come over and put these on the shelf. Su Zhen walked into the utility room, glanced at her granddaughter who was cleaning up, and put all the dried long beans on the table with a bamboo dustpan.

Li Fei watched the rice paper he had just prepared to fold being pressed by the dustpan, and the thin raw rice paper was directly poked by the bamboo skewer. She stood and did not speak.

"Don't hurry up and clean up this place. Su Zhen said, and carried the long beans out again.

When Li Wenhao heard it, he hurriedly came in to help his sister. Seeing that his sister had cried, he didn't dare to comfort her, so he didn't speak, and directly helped her carry the jars to the side and carry all the other messy things to the wooden shelves.

……

At night, Lin Fang helped her husband to the bedside, helped him lie down, covered him with a blanket, and then she fell asleep.

Lin Fang's mind was full of thoughts about her daughter's tuition, she thought about it, and turned her head to look at her husband who was about to fall asleep with his eyes closed, "Chenghua, if you sell that painting, Mom...... What will happen to her?"
