Chapter 343: Unfilial piety
Ruoshui was slightly startled, looked carefully at the old man's face, and sure enough, he saw that his face was the face of a lonely widow.
When Mo Yue heard that the old man's daughter didn't recognize him, she thought about Junmo's matter, thinking about what the old man had done to be sorry for her daughter, and said curiously: "Why doesn't your daughter recognize you?" ”
The old man felt uncomfortable, and he didn't have any relatives or friends at home, and someone listened to his complaints, so he couldn't ask for it, so he hurriedly talked to Moyue.
It turned out that this old man was handsome and chic when he was young, married a virtuous and beautiful daughter-in-law, and the two of them were in love with each other, and gave birth to a lovely daughter of Yuxue in the second year of marriage. Both husband and wife love this daughter very much.
It's just that the good times didn't last long, and when his daughter was ten years old, the old man's wife was terminally ill, and Lang Zhong said that if he had money, he would buy some good medicine, and he would be able to live for a few more years. But the old man's family is poor, where can he get so much money, and his daughter-in-law is afraid that she will spend all the family's savings, and her husband and daughter will not be able to live after she dies. stopped her husband from buying medicine and prepared to die.
The old man's daughter was at this age of ignorance and did not know what death was all about. Although my mother was sad when she died, she didn't feel that it would change much in her future life.
After the death of his wife, the old man devoted himself to raising his daughter, and some people persuaded the old man to marry another stepfamily, but the old man was afraid that his daughter would not be good after the steproom entered the door, especially if he had his own children in the future, I am afraid that he would not treat his daughter well.
The old man looked at Yuxue's lovely daughter, couldn't bear it, pushed everyone who said goodbye, and decided to bring up his daughter alone. The old man's family is poor, there is no land, he can only do odd jobs everywhere, there are no relatives and friends at home to take his daughter, and he neglects his daughter's education. The old man used to be in the army and had a very short temper, and when he came home and saw that his daughter was not studying well, he beat her in anger.
The daughters used to be brought by the old man's wife, and the wife was gentle and virtuous, and she never said a few words about her daughter. Not to mention punching and kicking his daughter like an old man, the daughter was treated like this, thinking that her father didn't love her, and she became even more rebellious. When the old man saw that his daughter was disobedient to discipline, he beat him even harder.
In the long run, the relationship between the daughter and the old man is getting worse and worse, and the old man loves this daughter very much, but he can't express it, and the daughter's heart is full of resentment. When her daughter became an adult, she met a man with a lot of money in the family outside, and she married that man. Only then did the old man know that his daughter had found a home for himself.
The old man was more and more disappointed in his daughter, but after all, it was his only daughter, and the old man had a lot of complaints in his heart, but in order for his daughter to be unpopular in her husband's family, he actually prepared a dowry and sent it over when his daughter got married.
The daughter became pregnant after getting married, and a year later gave birth to a big fat son to her husband's family, and her husband was very happy. The daughter was also much kinder to her father for the sake of the rich dowry she had prepared, and often went home to visit her father, which made the old man feel very relieved.
It's just that the daughter has lost her mother since she was a child, and her father can't teach, and this daughter doesn't know how to write virtuous and filial piety since she married into her husband's family, and she often quarrels and even fights with her mother-in-law at home, which completely annoys her husband. Not long after, the husband secretly found another woman outside, and the daughter found out and had a big fight with her husband, and the husband took advantage of this to reconcile and divorce his daughter.
The daughter was kicked out of the house by her husband's family, and the son couldn't see him, and he didn't have much money in his hand, so he had to go back to his father. At this time, the old man knew that his daughter's life in her husband's family was not satisfactory, and her husband's family had quite a lot of property, and he looked down on his daughter from a poor family, and often ridiculed his daughter at home for her bad background. The daughter has a strong temper, and she quarreled directly with her mother-in-law, and even had a big fight. Because of the fierce quarrel with her mother-in-law, she was reluctant to do housework at home and watch her children, which made her mother-in-law and husband even more disgusted.
The father wanted to persuade his daughter a few words, but when he saw her crying heartbroken, he didn't want to hit his daughter again, so he only comforted her a few words. It's just that after this incident, the old man privately began to plan his daughter's marriage, thinking that his daughter couldn't just be alone for the rest of her life. ruthlessly took out all his pension money to buy a good yard, and wanted to give his daughter a husband, a man who has entered his own family will no longer dare to look down on his daughter.
It's just that the daughter can understand the old man's fatherly heart, and feels that her father is nosy and unwilling to live or die, so she has a big quarrel with her father, saying that she wants to find a husband who is compatible with her. The old man disagreed and said that the husband his daughter found by herself was not good, and it was a lesson from the past to just leave that, he was old and had experienced a lot of things, so this arrangement was naturally better than his daughter's own finding.
The daughter refused to listen, and the old man was furious and lost his temper and beat his daughter again. After the daughter was beaten, she was completely disappointed in the old man, and she directly refused to recognize her father and ran away from home. Later, the father fell down in a hurry, was taken to the hospital by a neighbor, paralyzed the lower half of his body, and refused to come back when he informed his daughter, only saying that there would be no more such father in the future, and he didn't care that his father was paralyzed and had no one to take care of him.
Since then, the old man has become a lonely person, usually no one cares about eating and drinking, although the family has some savings, but always reluctant to spend, thinking that if his daughter comes back one day, he can leave it to his daughter, but he has been looking forward to it, and his daughter has not come back to see him. Five years have passed, and the old man is still alone, but he is now used to the days without legs and to taking care of himself. It's just that every time he thinks of refusing to go home, his daughter who refuses to recognize himself will cry, he knows that he is wrong, he shouldn't beat his daughter at every turn, but it's useless to know that he is wrong, and his daughter will never come back.
Ruoshui already had anger on his face when he heard this: "You are a thousand mistakes, you are also his father who gave birth to her and raised her, raised her with hard work since she was a child, and gave her a dowry and sent her to marry." Take her in when she and leave home, take care of her, and plan for her future. How can she deny you because of a beating? ”
The old man burst into tears: "I started hard, I don't blame her." ”
Ruoshui frowned and said: "It is said that parents love their children, and they must have far-reaching plans for it." You think about her with all your heart, she doesn't understand, and it's normal for you to be angry. Although it's wrong to do it, she can't deny her father! Her father was paralyzed in bed, and she didn't even look at it, which is simply unfilial! When he said the last sentence, Ruoshui's voice was already a few degrees higher, and his face was full of anger.
