Chapter 86: Chapter 85: Label Officially Changed
Upon arriving at the restaurant, Li Yang could hear the sound of arguing coming from the private room from afar.
Li Yijun hadn’t co along, considering it was still early for dinner, and he needed to go ho first.
When he arrived, the room quieted down for a mont, and Li Lifa and Li Lilou cheerfully talked to him. Li Lifa was quite friendly and even said, "Dear nephew, when you ca to
for money to buy a notebook, I knew you were a Wenqu Star. Now, you’ve really beco a top scholar, and your uncle is thrilled!"
Li Yang chuckled and asked, "Uncle, what were you all arguing about just now? I could hear it from far away."
Damn it, Li Lifa is really shaless. Back in elentary school, I borrowed half a yuan from him for a notebook, and my mom repaid it that sa night. That was so many years ago, but he still brings it up.
That was a loan! Not a gift!
Li Lifa hesitated to say, "Just a small matter among adults, nothing important."
Initially, he intended to laugh it off, but Li Yang had no intention of letting it slide.
In my previous life, I didn’t have much prowess and couldn’t take charge at ho.
I vaguely rember when my mom was discharged from the hospital and ca ho, neither family visited.
Later, when Li Lifa’s youngest son was in a car accident, I ran around for several days, accompanying him in the hospital. And the result? Because the perpetrator’s insurance company was slow to disburse money, Li Lifa just expected
to pay for the treatnt.
That’s your son, what does it have to do with ?
Every ti, it’s the sa story: they’re broke. Well, then go steal!
It’s hard to imagine how ugly human nature can be if you haven’t experienced it yourself.
My dad values brotherly bonds, always wanting to share good things with his brothers. Although sotis he feels hurt in private, ultimately, he can’t resist the connection of being born from the sa mother.
Li Likun regrets it every ti he’s bullied, but he’ll still do it next ti.
Li Yang wasn’t planning to be kind today, so he sarcastically said, "How co I heard you were arguing about the grandparents’ monunt again?"
Saying this, he walked directly in front of them, "My dad proposed setting up the monunt for the grandparents, taking up a spot in Uncle’s yard. But... didn’t we cover the costs? My family put in sixteen hundred, third uncle’s family put in eight hundred bucks. What’s there to talk about?"
It’s nothing new, every argunt involves this topic.
Li Lifa is just trying to seize so advantage, claiming that the land couldn’t be rented out because of a corner being occupied, blah blah blah...
Li Lifa said, "That’s old news, no such issue..."
Li Yang: "Oh? Then it’s about the vegetable garden? Since I’m here today, just say whatever you have on your mind, let’s sort this out one by one..."
Li Yang sat down, pointed finger by finger, saying: "When I was six, I found a nest of eggs in a haystack, and third aunt kept saying it was from her chicken. I brought it ho, and after half a day, she ca and took it away, leaving
with just one egg. So this one egg counts as a debt to your family? Over the years, eggs beco chickens, chickens lay eggs, do I owe you a thousand chickens?"
"The jujube tree behind the toilet, I got dozens of scratches all over, picked a few pounds of jujubes, and big aunt took the whole basket, leaving
with just a handful. How do we count those? Shall I value them as golden jujubes, make it thirty thousand?"
"And then there are the fish in the old family pond..."
As Li Yang continued, everyone present beca tense.
Even the usually shaless Li Lifa and Li Lilou realized Li Yang was mocking them.
After half an hour, Li Lifa couldn’t hold back anymore, flatly saying, "Li Yang, what do you an by this? Who’s counting these things against you?"
Li Yang slamd the table and cursed, "Are you still saying that? Not counting these against ? What do you talk about every year? Think I’m deaf? Which year did my family invite you to dinner out of goodwill, without you bringing up these trivial matters to disgust us? Once the grandparents passed, you all beca devoted children, always bringing up how my family didn’t spend money on the grandparents, didn’t take care of them for a day... When the family divided, did my family take a single brick from the house? Did we take a single relic from the grandparents?"
You take advantage of my dad’s emotional nature, it’s no big deal if he lets you get so benefit. What’s wrong today? Invite you for a al, and it turns into a ss? If you don’t want to eat, then damn it, get out now! Do you really think I care to eat with you? I know what you’re talking about. Aren’t you talking about covering my tuition for a sester? So, during that New Year, my family slaughtered a pig, only for half of it to be taken by the dog?"
This matter is quite typical. Back then, Li Likun was injured while working outside, and Wang Cuiping had to go over to take care of him.
It was a ti of poverty, the house was newly built, with a mountain of debt, and I was young, so they could only ask big aunt to co and look after .
When Wang Cuiping left, she scraped together three hundred yuan, gave it to big aunt, asking her to look after Li Yang for a while and keep an eye on the family’s pig.
I was very young back then, barely rembering these events, if not for Li Lifa constantly bringing them up, I’d completely forget.
That was around 2002. My primary school tuition was 162, but when Wang Cuiping and Li Likun ca back, they slaughtered the pig for New Year, giving half to Li Lifa, and another ten pounds to Li Lilou.
The tuition wasn’t given, because Li Likun was injured and didn’t earn any money.
The next year, Li Lifa started asking for that 162, and since the family was still broke, he took several hams, leaving Li Yang’s family without at for New Year.
The third year, he ca again asking for the hundred-sothing yuan, which had long been paid off, but Li Yang’s family still had no money, leading to another spat.
A few years later, Li Lifa stopped bringing it up, making everyone think he forgot.
But Li Yang knew, in his past life, as his son grew older and couldn’t find a wife, he resud the endless talk of how taking care of Li Yang for a year cost him money, disrupted his son’s studies, and that’s why he couldn’t find a wife now...
Li Likun really couldn’t hold back and said that as long as his son finds a wife, he would make up for the lack of the bride price.
Then, his son got into a car accident, and he demanded Li Yang pay for the treatnt with the bride price money, while his own family wouldn’t contribute a penny.
He even claid that if his son couldn’t be cured, he would have to rely on Li Yang to support him in the future, after all, he raised Li Yang.
Raise your own damn mother!
At this mont, Li Yang slamd the table, imdiately making Li Lilou’s face turn ugly: "Li Yang, what do you an? Who allowed you to slam the table at your elders?"
Li Yang, with a cold face, said, "Slam the table? That’s the least of it. You don’t believe I dare to hit you?"
"Who the hell are you calling old man?"
"You, old man!"
Li Yang slamd the table again.
Li Likun was completely dumbfounded.
Seeing Li Yang’s impulsive manner, Wang Cuiping imdiately ca over to pull him back.
It took Li Likun a while to react, and he shouted, "Yangyang, what are you doing..."
Li Yang didn’t even give Li Likun a good face and directly said, "Don’t you know what I’m doing? Just because you’re always worrying about those two ungrateful brothers, what has our family turned into? Every year at New Year’s, we listen to you argue, have we ever had a peaceful one? Every year in the first month, those two bastards co over to stir up trouble, and we’ve almost offended all our relatives! Just keep it up, I’ll definitely beat them up one day! What’s the worst? Going into the police station? At worst, I won’t go to school!"
Saying that, he shook off his mother’s hand, gave Li Lifa and Li Lilou a glare, and walked straight out.
Xue Ning quickly followed him.
Not long after he left, Li Yijun ca over.
He called out when he saw the few people in the private room and then said to Li Likun, "Uncle, I just received a ssage, there’s sothing at the construction site, I won’t be able to join you for the al. I’ll co back to treat you all later after I’m done, I’ll have to go now..."
Li Lifa and Li Lilou definitely knew Li Yijun, the big boss. Who in the Li Family doesn’t want to work under Li Yijun? Li Yijun couldn’t refuse to pay.
However, Li Yijun’s requirents were very high, and ordinary people couldn’t even get in.
Li Likun was about to say sothing when Li Yijun quickly slapped his forehead, "Oh right, there’s sothing I forgot to tell you, Uncle. We should hold Yangyang’s graduation party at ho. I’ve already found soone for the construction site. If the next site starts, Uncle, if you want to go, I’ll definitely save you a spot, but not this ti."
That’s exactly what Li Likun wanted to say: "Jun, could my jobs at the site be taken over by your Uncle Lifa and Uncle Lilou?"
Just as he finished speaking, Li Yang pushed open the door and walked in.
"I won’t allow it! Why should the good stuff always go to them? Dad, if you take their side again, I won’t ever co ho again!"
Then he turned to Li Yijun and said, "Jun, these two guys are lazy and useless. If you let them go to you because of my dad, you’ll definitely regret it."
After saying that, Li Yang left again.
His mission of getting high scores was completed at this mont.
Otherwise, he wouldn’t have the chance or confidence to say such things to his dad.
He knew exactly what kind of person his dad was.
Every personality has two sides, Li Likun’s character, though it brought many problems and troubles, was also good to his family.
Even in his past life, when he was so useless, Li Likun never scolded him one bit, nor did he ever complain about him, always keeping his love for his children.
He enjoyed the warmth this personality brought, naturally, he had to bear a certain price.
It’s just that now, he has the confidence to overturn the table.
Because Li Lifa and Li Lilou will definitely go to the construction site, even if his father dreads what he said, they have ways to soften his father’s heart.
They can’t wait for him to break off with his dad, who would want you to live well except for your own family? Sotis, even family is filled with contradictions, let alone outsiders...
The worse you live, the happier others are.
Li Lifa and Li Lilou are typical of these people.
The label on him had been completely replaced at this mont!
The forr Li Yang no longer exists, a Li Yang with a brand new label is already understood by everyone.
Smart, handso, promising, not to be ssed with!
His previous label was: didn’t study well, mischievous, looked like a delinquent, would starve to death when grown up, whoever has such a child is cursed for eight lifetis!
