Chapter 248: Heart-to-Heart
"Okay, let's buy less wine, but we still need the three jars!"
Li Erzhu glared and said, "For such a big happy event in our Bai Ge'er High School, the big guy must be happy, and this happiness has to drink." I drink the wine made by our daughters, and they drink the wine they buy outside. ”
"In short, I don't want to cheapen the wine made by our daughters."
"Besides, our daughters don't make so much wine, so it's enough for them to be in trouble."
Only then did Wang smile and nodded, "Yes, I should think so." ”
Li Chenlan complained silently beside her, although Dad, you look up to the wine I brewed so much, I am very happy in my heart. But you seem to have forgotten that in the letter sent by the third brother, you were specially told to keep a low profile and not let the big banquet come?
Seeing that Li Erzhu took the Wang family to the mule cart, he was about to leave the yard.
Li Chenlan could only take two steps forward helplessly, "Dad, the third brother said let us keep a low profile." If you have a big banquet here, the third brother won't be able to say it if he doesn't come back to socialize. The patriarch will definitely say that the third brother of our family doesn't understand the rules and etiquette. ”
"The third brother still has to prepare for the next township exam, and it's not time to be distracted."
Li Erzhu: "......" is like a frosted eggplant.
Li Chenlan couldn't bear it, "The big banquet is impossible, but the news of our third brother's entrance examination should not be hidden for long." Isn't the third uncle working in the town? Someone will tell him. ”
"If he knows, the people on the other side of the old house also know."
"To outsiders, we can say that in order for the third brother to concentrate on taking the exam, we will wait for the third brother to raise people in the future examination and then do it together."
"But it's okay for us to have a small family get-together,"
"Dad, why don't you go and inform grandpa, our third brother has passed the good news? Look at what kind of charter is on the other side of the old house, if you want to do it big, you have to stop it. If it's a small office, let's invite people to Songshan Ju and have a good time. ”
"It's just Dad, we have to talk about it in advance!"
"On the day they are invited to dinner, the doors of the two back courtyards must be locked, and they can only be entertained when you enter the courtyard. If people ask, they will say that the big people in the back two courtyards are not allowed to enter, do you know? ”
Li Erzhu looked at Wang, who nodded at him.
"Father of the child, I have seen your changes in the past three years, and I believe that even if you invite your parents-in-law to come to the house for dinner, you will not let our family suffer. Besides, Bai Ge'er has been admitted to Xiucai, and if he is lucky in the future, he will be qualified to be released as an official. ”
"We can't live so hard in the name of big people all our lives."
"Don't talk about raising your eyebrows, at least you have to be an upright person and don't embarrass Bai Ge'er."
Li Erzhu's face showed joy at this time, "Jiao Niang, I was wrong in the past, and you and the children suffered too much before they were separated." But I promise that in the future, I will definitely put your and the children's affairs first, and I will take care of it on my father's side. ”
"I definitely won't let you worry about the children, it's just that he is my own father after all."
"In the past three years, our family has lived in a big yard, and the days of brocade clothes and delicacies have passed. But it made him think that our family has always been under the fence, and he has never even invited them to dinner at home, so it is not a good taste in his heart. ”
"My dad came to me the other day and said that I always live in this big man's house, which is not the case."
"In the past few years, seeing that our family has a better life, are you considering a house of your own? If the money doesn't come together, he can help cushion some, just to make up for the unfairness of my separation. ”
"Although I also know that my father will say this, most of them think that my son is out of luck and needs to be taken care of."
"He is better to me, and if he wants to rely on me in the future, he can be relied on."
"But people's hearts are flesh and blood, I ......"
Li Erzhu said, a little choked.
He didn't know how to explain his complicated feelings, and he knew very well that his daughter-in-law and children didn't have a good impression of that family. In fact, he didn't have much affection for himself, but that was where he was born after all.
He was born and raised there, and it would be impossible for him to be completely emotionless.
And Li Lide's father is the only concern he has over there now.
For more than three years, although he kept telling himself that he was right, everything he did was for the sake of this family. But every time he deceived Li Lide, he always had a trace of guilt in his heart, and this guilt accumulated more and more over time.
Every night in the dead of night, when his daughter-in-law and children are asleep, he will toss and turn uncomfortably.
But he didn't dare to show this emotion in front of his daughter-in-law and children, so he could only suppress it in his heart. He never had the luxury of expecting that one day, his daughter-in-law and children would understand his feelings.
Even every time he had this thought, he felt that it was a betrayal of his small family.
He didn't want his daughter-in-law and children to think that he was always thinking about the old house, so that they had some not-so-good associations. Unexpectedly, one day, Lan Yatou would take the initiative to mention it and ask him to invite people from the old house to come over for dinner.
Despite the conditions, this is already a great salvation for him.
In addition, his daughter-in-law and son agreed, which is a signal that he finally does not have to struggle with the trade-off between his small family and his father. He can devote himself to running a small family while devoting a little energy to taking care of his father, so that he no longer has to bear the condemnation of his conscience.
Wang silently hugged Li Erzhu, who was choked up, "Father, you don't have to explain, we all believe you." ”
Li Chenlan took two steps forward, stretched out her hand to cover the back of Li Erzhu's hand, and gave silent support.
After a while, he said, "Dad, don't get me wrong! ”
"The reason why I locked the two courtyards in the back just now is not because I don't believe you, but because I don't trust the people on the other side of the old house."
"Inviting them to come to the house for dinner, there must be a lot of people, our family can't send a few people to keep an eye on the whereabouts of each of them, right? It is much more convenient to lock the hospital, and it also saves trouble. ”
"Dad understands, not only the two of you have to lock the yard, but also my bedroom and your mother's bedroom."
Li Erzhu collapsed for just a moment, and quickly collected his emotions and said, "I have bought a lot of jewelry for your mother in the past three years, and if any of them let them go, it will be a big loss." ”
"Dad understands, not only the two of you have to lock the yard, but also my bedroom and your mother's bedroom."
Li Erzhu collapsed for just a moment, and quickly collected his emotions and said, "I have bought a lot of jewelry for your mother in the past three years, and if any of them let them go, it will be a big loss." ”
"Dad understands, not only the two of you have to lock the yard, but also my bedroom and your mother's bedroom."
Li Erzhu's collapse was only for a moment, and he quickly collected his emotions and said.
