Chapter 56: Walking the Talk
How much I loved you, how much I hated you later. ΡΡΡ.(vii) (ix) x.S.ΡΠΎΠΌ The update is so fast.
When love turns into hate, it tends to intensify, and it is a kind of hatred that goes deep into the bone marrow.
Li Taida has forgotten when he began to hate his father, maybe from when Li Xian lifted the first bottle of wine, maybe when Li Xian threw the first dice, or when everyone thought it was a normal day.
Lee Hyun walked out, and then became a different person.
At that time, Li Taida was still very young. But Li Taida remembered that after that day, he moved out of the big house, and from that day on, his father, who didn't drink alcohol, was drunk every day, and the family of three, which was originally enviable, became avoided.
All this is because Li Xian is addicted to gambling.
Thirty-year-old Li Xian is not a small myth. He went from nothing to self-made and saved tens of millions of family properties in Dongxing City.
When he was twenty years old, Li Xian met the 'woman' who he hoped to take care of him for the rest of his life, that is, Li Taida's mother, Du Meier. At that time, Li Xian had nothing, and Du Meier's monthly salary was 6,000. There is nothing more sad than meeting a 'woman' who you want to take care of for your whole life when you are most powerless.
But Dummel didn't mind, because she saw hope and self-motivation in Li Xian.
Three years after getting married, Du Meier used the money she saved to Li Xian as a start-up capital for his business. At that time, they were poor, and in order to marry Li Xian, Du Meier even cut off relations with the family. They only ate one meal a day, and Li Xian's tears rolled in his eyes.
Li Xian said: I will definitely let you live in a big house in the future, let you count money at home every day, and no longer have to suffer the white eyes of the boss.
Dummel said I was waiting for this day.
Two years later, Li Xian made a lot of money in business, he opened his own company, and bought a big diamond ring for his wife.
Then the husband and wife hugged their heads and cried at home.
The two of them naturally won't forget that when they first got married, Li Xian couldn't even afford the cheapest diamond ring. They had no money for a banquet, and their wedding was held in a dilapidated rental house for 300 yuan a month. Li Xian made a "green dragon across the sea" for his lover - a few green vegetables in the pot.
There were no witnesses, just the two of them. They did the true meaning of marriage, because of love.
Du Meier held the diamond ring and looked at it all night, and after the two of them cried bitterly, they were excited, and they couldn't suppress their excitement. The two of them lay on the 'bed'~ and watched the diamond ring until dawn. Dummel is happy because not everyone can marry love, and not all people who do business can achieve so much in the second year.
Dummel felt that he had a good eye.
Two years later, their son, Li Taida, was born. At this time, Li Xian's business is getting bigger and bigger, and he has fulfilled the promise he made four years ago, let Du Meier live in a big house, let Du Meier count the money at home, and no longer have to look at the boss's face. Dummel became a stay-at-home wife and became the 'woman' behind the so-called successful man.
Three years later, Li Xian bought a villa in Dongxing City for several million.
At that time, Li Xian was thirty years old.
All the people who once looked down on Li Xian seem to have become Li Xian's good friends again, and their brother Li is long and Brother Li is short, as if the relationship is not ordinary from the mother's womb.
At that time, Li Taida was four years old and just sensible.
Becoming a family is like picking up soil with a needle, and losing a family is like pushing sand with water.
Naturally, no one paid attention to Li Xian when he was poor, but when the name Li Xian appeared in the newspapers of Dongxing City, it was natural that a bunch of good friends would come to Li Xian. As the saying goes, no one asks about the poor in the downtown area, and the rich have distant relatives in the mountains. Li Xian's distant relatives came, and there were quite a few.
Li Xian, who has been poor and white since he was a child, is most afraid of others looking down on him, but now that he is good, everyone looks up to him, and everyone regards himself as an idol.
Led by a few so-called distant relatives, Li Xian came into contact with gambling.
Since then, it has been out of control.
At the beginning, Li Xian would only lose one or two hundred thousand a day, which was nothing to Li Xian's savings. If you can stop here, there will naturally be no follow-up.
Sometimes, self-esteem is a double-edged sword.
If Li Xian wants to do something, he must do it. He has been stubborn since he was a child, and he can't pull back a few cows for what he decides. So he thinks that what is lost in the casino, it must be recovered in the casino. That year, he had a lot of ups and downs, sometimes he could win back hundreds of thousands in one night, and sometimes he had to lose hundreds of thousands in one night.
In fact, if everyone can make money by gambling, then there is no such thing as "gambling" in this world.
All he could win back was given to him by the people in the casino.
In the parlance of casino professionals, this is called pig herding.
Because casino people know that once you taste the sweetness, you will be 'addicted' to it.
It's like a mudflat, the more you struggle, the deeper you fall. And Li Xian's one foot has fallen into the quagmire, and he wants to pull his foot out~ out, but he never found that the other foot is actually already in it.
The more people who want to turn the tables, the deeper they fall.
Li Xian's every night loses hundreds of thousands, or even hundreds of thousands. If you lose like this, no matter how much you have your property, it won't help.
His heart was no longer in business. When Li Xian goes home every day, he pulls his face.
Just a few months later, Li Xian lost all the money in his account.
He began to take out loans in the name of the company, and the money he borrowed was used for gambling.
There is no way to last too long, Li Xian started from scratch, he naturally knows this truth. But when he wanted to retreat, he found that half of his body was already in the quagmire. If he wants to repay the loan, if he wants the company not to go bankrupt, he has to have more money.
He put his fate on the table.
From then on he drank heavily every night, and for the first time he beat Dummel with his own hands.
At this time, Mrs. Li was six years old.
Once you start to do it, it seems that the bottom line can get lower and lower. Lee Hyun began to become moody, and after every drink, Lee Hyun would vent his anger on his wife. He started with his fists, then with his feet, and finally he unfastened his belt.
Du Meier's body is blue and purple, Li Taida is still young, he only knows how to cry.
Du Meier also cried, Li Taida didn't understand at this time, the pain in his heart was far stronger than the pain in his body.
A year later, Li Xian's company went bankrupt and his family's villa was taken over by the bank. The family moved back to the small house they had used to live in. Du Meier comforted her husband that the difficult days of ten years ago had passed, and it was a big deal to start from scratch again. If you can do it 10 years ago, you can do it 10 years from now.
In response to Dummelle, he was beaten violently.
Li Xian's self-esteem has long been trampled under his feet, those who call him brothers and sisters are gone, and those distant relatives are also gone. Since then, after others saw him, it was no longer Brother Li, but "look at that street".
For the next five years, Li Taida and his mother seemed to be living in hell.
The corridor was painted with red "debt-repaid" paint, and many people called in the middle of the night to disturb them. As they walk on the road, they are often surrounded by debt collectors. They insulted their mother with filthy words, and at this time Li Taida would always stand up.
But at the age of eleven, he was too young to be an opponent of those people.
Several people pushed Li Taida to the ground, and they spat in Li Taida's face: "Tell your father, if you can't pay back the money, you two will be used to pay off the debt." β
Li Xian was trampled on his dignity after he was thirty years old, and Li Taida, since he was sensible, didn't know what dignity was. And the ridiculous thing is that his own dignity is built on another man.
Li Taida can't see his father every day, and in order to avoid debts, Li Xian is ghostly.
But the money still has to be repaid, and Du Meier still has hundreds of thousands of foreign debts after selling the house.
Mrs. Lee will always remember those days when she lived with her mother in a dilapidated rental house.
They are poor and don't have a penny, but Li Taida wants to go to school, even if there is a reduction, Du Meier still can't afford it. She became a full-time wife and could no longer find a job with a monthly salary of 6,000. He can only go to work as a waiter, and he has to 'pay' rent for 1,000 yuan a month, and he has to pay back.
But how could the loan sharks let her go.
The money and debts were repaid, and on this day, Dummel finally untied his 'pants'.
On this day, Dummel took a different path.
Li Taida will always remember that day, Du Meier gave him twenty yuan and let him go out to play.
When Li Taida returned home, Du Meier was 'naked'~ and collapsed on the 'bed'~, her tears had dried up. Li Taida naturally knew what was going on, but there was nothing he could do.
Du Mei hugged his son and muttered: "They won't come to 'Sao' to disturb us in the future, you go to school well." β
It is impossible to repay hundreds of thousands so easily.
Dummel became a young lady when she was nearly forty years old.
But she's too old, and the price is very cheap.
Lee Hyun came back because Lee Hyun knew about it. In the nightclub, Li Xian and Du Meier met. When he watched an old man grab Du Meier's fart~ and leave, Li Xian followed Du Meier. In that rental house, Li Xian beat Du Meier again.
"Cuckold Lao Tzu!" Li Xian shouted as he 'pumped' Du Meier with his belt.
Li Taida went home and saw this scene. For the first time, Li Taida stood in front of his father, and Li Xian's whip 'whipped' on Li Taida and Du Meier.
This year, Li Taida was fourteen years old.
Li Xian is still good at gambling into 'sex', and he is still the kind of life of borrowing money to gamble during the day and going home to beat people at night.
Li Taida cried and said to his mother: "Divorce, you go, hide in a place where Li Xian can't find you." β
Dummel nodded.
Since then, Li Taida has never seen his mother again.
Two years later, Dummel paid off the arrears and bought a house in Mrs. Lee's name, the same one we searched earlier.
Li Taida didn't know how his mother earned this money, but Li Taida knew that he must have paid a hardship that he couldn't imagine.
But Li Xian lived in this house, and every time he got drunk, he would go crazy and make a mess of the house.
At the age of sixteen, Mrs. Lee finally decided to kill her father.
