Chapter 8: Father-Son Disputes
Although Brother Rundong is still just a big child, he is very respected in the eyes of our villagers, mainly because although his family is rich, he never bullies the weak, and often gives everyone some help, so in the eyes of the villagers, everyone has always regarded Brother Rundong as superior.
And for our family, Brother Rundong gave our family charcoal in the snow, and at the same time taught me to read, and gave our family a lot of help, so my parents have always called Brother Rundong as Master Run, and Brother Rundong is both a brother and a teacher in front of me, but today Runyuan actually reprimanded him in front of the two of us, so that Brother Rundong is very unable to get off the stage, he has a strong self-esteem, he used to be silent when he was young, but now he is older, and his self-esteem has become stronger, at this moment he was scolded by his father and his face turned red, and his stubborn and competitive temper made him a little unable to accept his father's reprimand, and his body was straight, he unceremoniously replied to Runrenwai's words: "I have already fed the pigs, and I can't greet the guests at home?"
Glaring angrily, Runren was obviously even more annoyed by his son in front of outsiders, and he immediately reprimanded his son in harsher language: "Do you need to greet him?
I believe that the occasional rebuttals of Brother Rundong in the past were all calmed down and suppressed by his father in this way, but today is different, today we are watching from the side.
At this moment, Brother Rundong was like a volcano that had erupted, and he was not ready to stop after the eruption, he immediately replied to Runren with a stubborn neck: "What can I do? There are so many things I can do." ”
"You're still energetic, what can you do? You can read a book, can reading a book make you have enough to eat? Let you feed the pigs, you can't feed the cattle, let you herd the cattle, you lose the cattle, you have to ask me to go to the mountains to find it, tell me, what can you do?"
I believe that in the past, Rundong was rarely so contradicted by Rundong, but today he was confronted by his son in front of outsiders, and he counted down many of Rundong's mistakes in one go, and turned over all the old accounts.
Also in front of outsiders, Brother Rundong also felt extremely embarrassed, at the same time, in anger, Brother Rundong didn't want his father to prove that he was useless, he wanted to prove that he was good, he said his pride angrily: "Hmph! At least my reputation in the village is better than you." ”
This is a well-known fact in the village, Run's caustic personality is not popular with the villagers, but Brother Rundong is respected by everyone in the hearts of the villagers and accepted by the villagers, this is where Brother Rundong thinks that he is stronger than his father, and he thinks this is his pride.
"You, you ......"
Runren was so angry that his face had changed color, and what Rundong said was exactly what he was talking about, and he pointed at Rundong with trembling hands, and roared: "You are a loser's child, and you still have the face to say, you are using the money I have saved to sell favors, do you think I don't know that you secretly take things from home to give favors? I raise you is equivalent to raising a livestock that eats inside and out!"
My dad and I are standing here, both of which are unusually awkward.
My dad originally wanted to go up and help persuade the two of them, but when he heard the latter words, he couldn't interject, because Brother Rundong also gave our family things, and we are also the accomplices of what Runren said outside, eating inside and out.
In front of him was a very stubborn and competitive child, hearing Runren scolding such ugly words, Brother Rundong stubbornly immediately shouted-for-tat: "I'm going to give people all the things in the house, see what you can do?
"What do you say? Tell me again!"
Runren's face turned purple with anger, and his body trembled.
Ke Rundong's temper at this time seemed to be bigger than that of Rundong, and he immediately replied without showing weakness: "I just want to give people things at home!"
"Runren Wai...... "Dad knew that it was not good, and he was about to go up to dissuade him, but it was too late.
"Smack!"
A crisp slap was heard.
The courtyard became silent, and the air around it seemed to suddenly become stagnant.
Lao Tzu beating his son, this shouldn't be a big deal, I'm afraid every family will have this scene, but beating in front of outsiders, that's another matter.
Brother Rundong, who has a strong sense of self-esteem, was slapped by Runyuan, which made our hearts rise to our throats.
Brother Rundong covered his flushed face, and stared at Runyuan with both grievance and unwillingness in his eyes.
My father and I were just about to go up to dissuade us, but Brother Rundong turned around violently and ran out without looking back.
"Rundong, Young Master Run!"
My father shouted in a hurry, and seeing that Rundong didn't look back, he hurriedly said to Runyuanwai: "Don't let Young Master Rundong run around! There are demonic beasts on the mountains near here." ”
After saying that, my dad chased him out.
At this moment, Runyuan also knew that the stakes were high, yes, let his son run around, if he ran into the mountains, it would be easy to have an accident, at this moment he regretted the slap a little, so he hurriedly chased him out.
I was also concerned about Brother Rundong's situation, although he was running a little slower, but I also staggered all the way to follow.
But when I ran to the head of the village with difficulty, I saw that Brother Rundong actually ran to the cliff at the head of the village, confronting Runyuan and others, obviously, Brother Rundong is still a child, he can't outrun adults, and he doesn't want to follow his father home, he is forcing everyone in his own way, and at this moment he is shouting angrily: "Don't come here, come here, I'll jump down." ”
We were all stunned here, we didn't expect Rundong to be so excited, Rundong, who used to be gentle and elegant, his temper would suddenly become so hot.
Although this cliff is not high, only more than 20 meters deep, but the bottom of this cliff is full of hard stones, if you really want to jump, you will be seriously injured if you don't die, so no one dares to go to Brother Rundong's side again, everyone is just persuading Rundong from afar, at this moment people seem to suddenly realize that no matter how stubborn Rundong is, he is still a child after all, he is easy to make some over-the-top moves, besides, if the children in the mountains are stubborn, they will not be able to pull back nine cows.
"Brother Rundong, don't!" I shouted anxiously, but I was so soft-spoken that no one around me looked at me.
"When you come back, you're not afraid of being embarrassed, what are you doing?"
Although Runyuanwai has a tough attitude at the moment, his tone has slowed down a lot, he knows that Rundong's temper is stubborn, and he really makes him anxious, maybe he will really jump down to face his father's number, Rundong didn't speak with a cold face, I'm afraid he doesn't want to do this, but now that he has been * to this, he doesn't want to compromise easily.
Yinzhao Mountain Village is a small village, there is a little big thing and a little thing at the entrance of the village to shout a voice, the whole village can hear, now there is such a big movement here, soon the people in the village ran out, surrounded by a lot of people, the village people are simple, and they all have a good impression of Rundong, so everyone came to persuade Rundong.
At this moment, Rundong just stubbornly twisted his head and didn't speak.
Seeing this, my father knew that what Rundong needed now was a step, so he hurriedly stepped forward and said to Rundong: "Young Master Run, you listen to Uncle Ling's words, no matter who is right or wrong in this matter today, after all, you are a junior, do you accompany Rundong outside, and this matter is over today, okay?"
Brother Rundong's body stiffened, he obviously wanted to end the predicament in front of him quickly, he was not comfortable being watched by others like this, but he was still stubborn in his heart to let himself insist on something.
Seeing that Rundong didn't answer, my father had to look at Runyuanwai again and said, "Runyuanwai, Rundong is still young, don't be angry with him today, let Rundong go home, if there is anything, go home and solve it." ”
Of course, Runyuanwai didn't want to be at a stalemate anymore, but the surrounding villagers were watching here, and he couldn't act as if nothing had happened, so he thought about it and said, "Okay, as long as I let Rundong kneel down for me today, and accompany me, today's incident will be considered over." ”
Asking his son to kneel down for Lao Tzu is not too much of a request.
In the folklore here, this is a very normal situation, even if there are no such things today, asking his son to kneel to Lao Tzu is just to show respect, and Run Yuanwai is just doing this to save some face in front of the villagers.
Seeing that Runyuanwai made concessions first, my father hurriedly turned around and said to Brother Rundong with a smile: "Young Master Run, Runyuanwai has already relieved you, you can kneel down for your father and accompany him!"
Everyone looked at Brother Rundong, not knowing what he would choose if he was strong and competitive.
Standing there hesitating, and thinking about it quickly, Brother Rundong still had a trace of stubbornness and firmness in his eyes at this moment, and after thinking about it, he suddenly turned to Runrenwai, knelt on one knee, and then lowered his head and said quickly: "I was only half wrong about today's things, so I only accompanied half of them." ”
Kneeling quickly on one knee, Brother Rundong quickly stood up again, and then turned around and walked towards the village.
"You ......"
Runyuanwai was so angry that his face turned pale, his son knelt down to Lao Tzu, how could anyone kneel on one knee, but knowing Rundong's stubborn temper, he was not good at getting angry with Rundong anymore, worried that his son's stubborn temper would be excited to do stupid things again, he blushed and endured this breath for the time being, and glared at Rundong's back helplessly, and Runyuanwai had to walk home.
(Rundong in this article is just an ordinary child in the mountains, and his growth needs a process, but this is what really happened, and there are legal publications to check.
