Li Ying rushed into the yard and shouted to Li Yun who was chopping firewood: "Dad, grandpa just said that your father is not dead."
Li Yun was stunned when he heard this. Why is his father not dead? If his father was not dead, why did he come back after so many years? Could it be that he got promoted and got rich and married another person? Damn it! Is his father a heartless man who abandoned his wife and children? When Li Yun came here, he felt bad all over. He threw the ax in his hand to the ground and ran towards the old house angrily. Li Ying hurriedly followed. Fang Li was worried that Li Yun would do something stupid impulsively, so she said to Li Guoqing: "Guoqing, go take out the firewood from the stove and cover the charcoal with ashes. I'll go to the old house to take a look." Let’s see what happens.”
"Okay!" Li Guoqing said as he entered the kitchen and walked to the stove. He looked at a large pot of chicken in the pot. I didn't dare to pick up a piece and eat it.
He took out the firewood in the stove and extinguished it, and covered the red coals with ashes. He stood up and looked at the chicken in the pot. He couldn't help but put a piece of it into his mouth. After eating, he murmured to himself: "Ancestors of the Li family, I'm trying to taste it for you. Don't blame me."
After Li Guoqing finished eating a piece of chicken, he clicked his mouth. The chicken was smooth, tender, and delicious. He couldn't help but eat several pieces of chicken in a row. He was worried that his family would find him eating, so he threw the chicken bones into the stove. Cover it with ashes, then sit on a chair and hum a tune happily.
Li Zhenyu watched Li Yun rush into the yard angrily and secretly thought something was wrong, trouble was coming! "Grandpa, did my father send you a letter, but you hid it and didn't tell us?" Li Yun asked.
"No, absolutely not, please don't accuse me wrongly." Li Zhenyu said hurriedly.
Li Yun showed displeasure, "I see you have a guilty look on your face. You must know something. Did he abandon his wife and marry another? If so, tell him not to set foot in Jinyin Village for the rest of his life. We will treat him as dead." Yes, out of sight is pure.”
"We didn't get the exact news that your father is dead. Maybe your father is still alive." Li Zhenyu said.
"Why don't you go home if you're not dead? I've been out for a long time and saw so many beautiful girls that I forgot about my poor wife and young son at home." When Li Yun said this, he said sarcastically: "When he left, I was still here. How can he have feelings for a son of mine whom he has never met in his mother's belly? Since your son is not dead, let your son provide for you in your old age! My family will not provide any future pension money."
Li Yun said as he pulled Li Ying up and walked out of the yard. Fang Li glanced at Li Zhenyu with complicated eyes, took Li Gerong's hand and followed Li Yun away.
Li Hongliang looked at Li Zhenyu with a shocked face, "Dad, my second brother is not dead, he is still alive. Do you know where he is?"
Li Zhenyu stood up and said, "Why are you asking so many questions? Even if he is alive, it has nothing to do with you." After speaking, he walked into the house with a cane.
Li Xueer's face showed shock, holy shit! Grandpa really knew that his second uncle was not dead.
She suddenly remembered that in her previous life, her second uncle came back when her grandfather was seriously ill. Since her second uncle was not dead, why didn't she tell her second aunt? How could her grandfather bear to watch her second aunt become a widow for her second uncle, and still enjoy the second uncle's life as a matter of course? Isn’t my aunt’s pension money a little shameless?
Li Yun dragged Li Ying back home angrily, and Fang Li asked, "Do you still want to worship the ancestors at home?"
"I won't worship you anymore. I have worshiped him for so many years, but I still haven't asked my dream to tell me that my father is not dead." Li Yun said coldly.
Li Yun was so aggrieved that he couldn't let out a breath of bad breath. He felt uneasy. After thinking about it, his eyes lit up and he said to Fang Li: "I'm going to have Mr. Yin and Yang come to my house to recite sutras for my father to be saved, and then I'll invite my relatives and friends to my house to gather together and remember him." Give him a try and spread the word about his heroic deeds."
If Li Hongjun really died, he had fulfilled his filial piety. If he hadn't died, he didn't want him to come back and disturb their peaceful life, and he didn't want his mother to be sad.
"Okay, it's all up to you." Fang Li said nonchalantly.
It doesn't matter if Li Hongjun is disgusted, just think of it as a way to express his anger on behalf of his mother-in-law. Otherwise, her mother-in-law would be too aggrieved after being a widow for so many years.
After dinner, Li Yun went out. He must hold a grand funeral for Li Hongjun in a grand manner. The next morning, Lin Qingxuan and Li Meng came to Li Ying's house early to help. Shuanzi, his mother Tan Yu, and the neighbors next door also came to Li Ying to do some work within their capabilities. Li Ying's house suddenly became lively.
When Mr. Yin Yang invited by Li Yun came to Li Ying's house, he set up an altar in the main room and prepared to chant sutras and perform rituals for Li Ying's grandfather, so as to save his soul and allow him to pass away and be reborn as a human being as soon as possible.
After Li Zhenyu found out about Li Yun's tricks, he was so angry that he wanted to beat Li Yun to death with a cane.
His son is not dead, so why do he have to do something about it? Isn't this a curse to his son's death?
Li Hongliang looked at the furious Li Zhenyu and pretended not to see it. Instead, he said: "Li Yun is chanting sutras and chanting Buddha's name for his second brother. If I, the elder, don't go, I will be criticized." Then he looked at Li Chun and said, "Let's go. Go and have a look, you can still have two good meals and have a tooth festival."
Li Zhenyu became even more angry after hearing what Li Hongliang said.
Zhu Lin looked at Li Zhenyu. She finally knew why her grandfather didn't go to live with Li Yun. It turned out that he didn't dare to face his second aunt day and night.
It is really immoral to let a woman remain a widow for decades!
Let Zhu Lin be a widow for a few years, she can do it, let her be a widow for decades, but she can't do it. They are both women, and she sympathizes with the second aunt.
Li Chun looked at Li Zhenyu with complicated eyes, and said to Li Zhulin: "Let's go! Go to Li Yun's house and help with some work within our ability."
He and Li Yun only had a small fight, and there was no deep hatred. He felt that the second uncle was a cold-blooded person at heart, otherwise he would not have left home for more than 30 years, leaving the second aunt to work hard to raise Li Yun alone.
"Xue'er, if you target Li Ying in the future, don't recognize me as your father again." Li Chun said.
Li Xueer's pupils shrank, and she didn't know why Li Chun suddenly mentioned this.
"Xue'er, you and Xue'er are cousins and share the same ancestor. Broken bones are still connected, so harmony is the most important thing." Li Chunyu said sincerely.
"I understand." Li Xueer said.
Li Chun nodded with satisfaction and went out side by side with Zhu Lin.
In the evening, Grandma Li went home with her pocket in hand. She saw many guests at home and Mr. Yin and Yang chanting sutras. Surprise and confusion appeared on her face.
Li Yun saw Grandma Li coming back and walked up to her with a smile, "Mom, you are back. Have you found Jianlin?"
"Jianlin and Wu Jie were found on the mountain. It was said that a young man rescued them. However, the two of them were frightened very much and were in low spirits. Wu Jie looked a little abnormal and spoke in a high-spirited manner, as if he was... Crazy, Wu Jiang and Wu Di haven't been found yet." Grandma Li said, looking at the mourning hall in the main room, "What are you doing, praying for Ying'er to ward off evil spirits?"
"It's not to ward off evil spirits and pray for Ying'er, but to hold a ritual ceremony for my father so that his soul can rest in peace." Li Yun said nonsensically.
