17. [1-017] Poverty is to blame
The rain that had been going on for two days was getting stronger and more intense at this time, as if some mischief had poked a hole in the sky.
The little face that was flushed like an apple and couldn't tell whether it was rain or tears fell from time to time, and the messy sideburns were embarrassed next to his granddaughter's little cheeks, looking at the eyes of the grandfather of Old Man Li, it was very distressing.
"Ouch, my good grandson, slow down, don't fall!" Old Man Li pulled her into his arms at this time, looking up and down at the undisguised love, giving Mengfan, who was originally nervous and just wanted to escape at this time, great comfort and heartwarming. A pair of big hands engraved with rough marks of labor gently wiped away the droplets on Mengfan's face, and his voice was deliberately lowered and soft: "Good, Fanfan, don't cry, don't cry, come, don't cry, good grandson, tell grandpa, what's wrong?" ”
"Grandpa, Daddy is so fierce...... Whining...... Dad wants to beat his mother, and his mother still has a little brother in her belly...... Daddy spanked me, woo...... The butt hurts so much...... "I wasn't sad but wanted to find a place to hide from the embarrassment of being beaten by my father, but who knew that my heart suddenly thought of my grandfather who had passed away in modern times, and the past events of many years ago were vivid and heartbreaking at this time, and it was enough to feel aggrieved that he suddenly became so weak after crossing over; Therefore, this crying also increased the endless sadness at once; There is no need to brew emotions through the arms of his grandfather in this life, and selfishly want to find that long-term warm memory.
Crying so darkly, crying so much that the liver and intestines are broken, and the black grape-like eyes are about to become like rabbits, and they can't stop automatically.
"Si'er-" Old Man Li's tiger roar sounded above Mengfan's head, making her stunned and sobbing for the rest, Old Man Li didn't suppress his anger, and then roared: "You give me the top door bar behind the door, Li Mingjie, you are so good, do you see what you have scared Lao Tzu's good grandson?" Come here, do you dare to hit Lao Tzu's granddaughter? I also beat your mother-in-law, don't you know that she is still pregnant? Come here...... Well...... Hmph......"
Mengfan, who couldn't stop sobbing, quietly turned his head from the arms of his grandfather, who was angry by his words, and saw that his father, who was handsome, tall and heroic, but his face was very gloomy, had rushed to his grandfather's yard, stood there from a distance and looked at her, and then slowly lowered his eyes.
"Grandpa, grandma...... Whining...... Sister...... Sister doesn't cry, Huahua listens to you...... Whining...... Huahua is not naughty! The soft children's voice mixed with crying sounded intermittently from behind Li Mingjie, and Hua Ge'er stumbled from the pouring rain with his little short legs. He walked far away from his father, who wanted to catch his little body, and trotted all the way to his grandfather and sister, shouting that his sister didn't cry or cry.
"Brother, brother, don't cry!"
Mengfan's heart, at this time, it was soft and soft, it was like turning into a puddle of water, and he quickly got out of his grandfather's arms and ran to the yard to catch Brother Hua.
Brother Hua is still young, only five years old, he still can't figure out what happened just now, he only knows that he cried with his sister who eats and sleeps with him all day long, so he can't help but just want to cry, he can only comfort his sister with childish words that he can understand.
"Big brother-" The fourth Li Mingquan stood under the eaves and was very helpless: "Where do you say you have so much anger all day long?" How can you do something to your sister-in-law when she is pregnant with a child? Fan Fan is not like those vulgar silly girls in other people's families, she is half a girl, what do you say you beat her? You see, Hua'er was also scared, and my father was also angry with you, you ......"
Grandma Li walked out of the house slowly with a straight face, and glanced at Li Mingjie fiercely with her eyes: "Mingjie, don't you know that your father is a grandchild and hurts in my heart?" Although she only likes grandsons who can pass on the ancestry, but the old man likes this eldest granddaughter who is more handsome than other people's families, and she can't say anything, but she won't really let the old man pick up the top door and beat him for his son to beat his daughter-in-law and children, so her tone can be regarded as a mother's lesson to her son.
"Okay, okay, it's noon, Fanfan, take your younger brother home for dinner, in charge, you said you too, Mingjie is Fanfan's father, how could he really beat her? It's just to scare her, let them go back! The words of the housewife not only made the old man love his granddaughter's heart, but also let his son have a step down, after all, these days are like flowing water, there is no rush, and it is normal to make trouble.
"Dad-" Meng Fan also knew that she couldn't go too far, after all, she had already split up her family, and no matter how strong her love was with her grandfather's grandchildren, the family who lived with her every day was still her own father and mother, so she held her brother's little hand, sobbed, and shouted timidly: "Don't you beat my mother and me, okay?" Fan'er has grown up, and Fan'er will cook for you every day in the future, and Fan'er will make a lot of money in the future, and I will hand it over to you......"
Li Mingjie's pupils shrank, and a complex emotion suddenly surged up, pursed his lips, and snorted from his nose: "Hmph, I won't beat you anymore, go home for dinner!" "This girl, who is not small, dares to bargain with her father and me...... Thinking about it, the anger in his heart gradually suppressed back, squatted down and picked him up, and looked at his son timidly.
"Grandpa, grandma, uncle...... We're home! Mengfan looked back through the rain curtain behind his father, and his grandfather's kind face, the fourth uncle's handsome face with a smile, and his grandmother's impatience to walk back to the house angrily were all in his heart.
As long as I can find a way to improve this poor family situation as soon as possible, so that my father will no longer be resentful of living a good life because of the hardships of life and being a scholar, so that my father and mother can be people, so that my younger brother can enter the school smoothly when he is a schooler, and he will not be comfortable with a modern memory.
