"Chairman, your family just called to ask you to return quickly, sounds a little anxious?" As soon as Mr. Zhang of the shopping mall saw Lu Xiumei, he immediately relayed.

"Really? Then I'll have to call back right away. Lu Xiumei also panicked, thinking that something had happened at home.

"Hey, is it Dongzi? What's going on at home? As soon as Lu Xiumei saw that the phone was connected, it was a question that cut her head and covered her face.

"A-Niang, it's even a little rain, and he went out." It was still the little girl who answered the phone, but she heard Lu Xiumei's voice.

"Little Wu, has something happened at home?" Lu Xiumei asked patiently.

"Oh, second uncle, he just came to our house." The little girl thought for a while before replying, but it made Lu Xiumei anxious.

"Is Grandma there? You ask grandma to answer the phone. Lu Xiumei breathed a sigh of relief, fortunately it was not a big deal.

"Grandma is cooking in the kitchen, and I went to call her." The little girl trotted to the kitchen.

"Xiumei, I'm your father, come back quickly. Dongzi and his second uncle came, saying that your father-in-law was dying, so let you go back and see you for the last time. Grandpa briefly explained what happened.

"Dad, I heard you right, are you saying that Dongzi and his grandfather are dying? Wouldn't it be nice to go back during the Chinese New Year? Lu Xiumei was surprised.

"It's true, it seems like I fell down, and the hospital has issued a critical illness notice." Grandpa confirmed.

"Okay, I'll come back with Li Dang right away." Lu Xiumei also knew that something was wrong, but she decided to go back and tell Li Kang again, so as not to distract him from driving.

When the husband and wife returned home, Lu Xiumei confided the news of her father-in-law's condition, so that he could be prepared. Father Li was really panicked, and he couldn't wait to return to his hometown immediately, asked the second brother's room, and hurriedly ran to the second floor.

"Second child, what's wrong with Dad?" Before the person arrived, Father Li shouted.

"Big brother, you can be regarded as back, our father is really dying. We have to call the sixth child quickly, I have inquired about the train, there is just one more train in the evening, and we should leave overnight. The second uncle opened the door, saw Father Li, and immediately persuaded.

"I know, you haven't told me what the hell is going on with our father?" Father Li asked again.

"Big brother, it's hard for me to say it in front of other people, alas, the family is unfortunate. Dad was knocked down by Li Long of the third family, and the child didn't mean it, but he was playful. The second uncle explained that only in front of the eldest brother could he tell the truth.

"How does this third child take care of the child, Ah Long is not young, why don't you know the severity?" Father Li also knew that he couldn't blame his nephew, but he couldn't swallow this breath.

"Big brother, I've already scolded Ah Long, and besides, this kid is a little stunned this time, and I don't dare to go too far." The second uncle played a round for Li Long.

"Forget it, it's a blessing or a curse, it's a disaster that can't be avoided, our dad still can't avoid this stubble." Father Li can only comfort himself like this.

At noon, the family had a lunch together, although the meal was very rich, but the adults had little appetite, and Li's father only barely drank a bowl of chicken soup. The children were also more or less affected, and they did not let go as usual, and there was still a lot of food left on the last table.

After lunch, Li Dong drove Li's father and second uncle to the small shop of the sixth uncle's house, at this point in time, the sixth uncle should still be in the noodle restaurant. Father Li, where did they still have the heart to prepare gifts, they all came to the door empty-handed. As for Li Dong, don't even think about it, if he hadn't accompanied Father Li, he wouldn't even want to enter the door.

"Sixth uncle, my father and second uncle have come to see you."

At this time, there were no customers in the noodle restaurant, Li Dong shouted without hesitation, and then led Li's father and the two straight to the back kitchen.

"Who?"

The sixth uncle ran out in a white coat, and when he saw Father Li and them, his face was a little uncomfortable. But he still forced a smile and greeted everyone to sit down eroticly.

"Boss, second, why are you here?"

"Sixth, our dad is dying, you can pack up and follow my house, I hope to see you for the last time." The second uncle couldn't get used to this little brother for a long time, and said in a stiff tone.

"Back to what's home? Dog, I can tell you, don't come back if you go back. The sixth aunt walked out from behind and said in a strange manner.

"Why are you talking like a, you can also bark dogs, and you don't care about your daughter-in-law." The second uncle was immediately angry, and Father Li was also full of righteous indignation.

"Okay, dog, your brother asked you to take care of me, why don't you do it?" The sixth aunt sneered fearlessly.

"Second brother, don't make trouble for me, you better go back first, I have to go back and discuss with my father-in-law and mother-in-law about going home." The sixth uncle is obviously biased towards the side of the sixth aunt.

"Li Jian, what nonsense are you talking about? If the six brothers and sisters don't respect us, forget it, my father is like this, what else is there to discuss? Even a good-tempered person like Father Li couldn't help it at this time, and reprimanded him.

"You don't have to worry about our family's affairs, you can go quickly, the dog will not go back with you." Seeing that the sixth uncle was a little withdrawn, the sixth aunt hurriedly came out to support her.

"Okay, sixth child, just give me a happy word, will you go back to this home or not?" The second uncle's patience was running out, and he didn't bother to pull the strings, so he directly gave an ultimatum.

The sixth uncle hesitated for a while, his face changed greatly, and finally gritted his teeth and refused: "No, second brother, it's not easy for me to come to the capital to work hard, and now I have settled down after a lot of hard work, I think my father will forgive me in the spirit of heaven." ”

"Big brother, let's go." The second uncle took the lead and walked out of the shop, and he didn't have this brother from then on.

"Sixth, there is only one father, you have to think about it." Father Li was still unwilling, and persuaded him again before leaving.

"I'm sorry, boss, I also have a hard time, I hope you can understand." The sixth uncle said bitterly to defend himself.

"Understand you... Big-headed ghosts. Father Li was also angry, and finally made a swear word.

"How can you scold people, countrymen just don't have quality." The sixth aunt retorted behind her back.

……

"Dad, second uncle, don't be angry, it's not worth it for this kind of person." Li Dong persuaded after getting into the car.

"That's it, big brother, let's do without this little brother." The second uncle echoed.

"I'm not angry with the sixth child, I'm worried about how to explain to your grandfather." Father Li said worriedly.

"Don't think about it, the boat will naturally go straight to the bridge, and if it doesn't work, just say that the sixth and his daughter-in-law are giving birth, and he can't leave for a while." The second uncle suggested that this was also the best excuse he could think of.

"That's all there is to it." Father Li sighed.

Soon, Father Li and his family no longer had to worry about making excuses, and as soon as they returned home, they received an unfortunate news. The elder brother just called to report the funeral, and the grandfather had passed away at noon, and finally did not see his sons for the last time.

That night, Li Dong stepped on the train back to his hometown with his father and second uncle, but Li Bing and the others didn't have to go. According to the eschatological viewpoint, all people's energy should be focused on labor production, and all red tape should be simplified.
