Chapter 229 Family quarrel 01
Chapter 229 "Dragon and Phoenix Catastrophe" A big family quarrel
Since Li Xiaoling sued Li Hu to the court, suing him for denying the huge arrears and for repaying the loans that had become a fact. The Li Group also sued the brother and sister to the court at the same time for the huge arrears, and even more so.
The conflict over the family's economic interests has escalated to a fever pitch. In the past, this family was relatively harmonious and appeared to be extremely wealthy and glorious to outsiders. Today, the internal situation has become extremely troubled. The three brothers and sisters are divided into three factions.
, do not trust each other, and fight for their own maximum economic interests. The grandfather and the old are in a dilemma. After all, the palms and backs of the hands are all flesh, and it is extremely uncomfortable to be caught in the middle. It does not matter whether they are beaten or scolded, nor does it mean to help anyone... This
The family is on the verge of despair and collapse day by day.
Li Hu and Li Xiaoling have not returned home for many days. Their family members do not answer calls or reply to messages. They are really going crazy. Especially Li Jianzhong, the eldest member of the family, is worried about all these troubles at home.
Every day they meet, they inevitably quarrel. The father and son, who are several dozen years old, seem to have become enemies.
Following Li Jianzhong's request, the servant Yang Jieli was arranged to cook meals for five people every day. The old man always hoped or believed that one day the two vindictive children would come home to eat by themselves, and they would still be like each other after the conflict.
As harmonious as before, the family would still talk, laugh, and enjoy family happiness together.
Of course, that is just Li Jianzhong’s personal wish and idea. The reality is very cruel. When eating every day, he still only has three mouths. Less than half of the sumptuous meal on the table is eaten, and most of the leftovers are thrown away...
Today was like every other day. Li Feng worked a little overtime after get off work, then packed up and went home to have dinner. The conflicts and desertion at home these days made her feel very uncomfortable. However, after all, there was still her grandfather's father above her. Although she did
She is the eldest daughter, but in this family that respects elders and emphasizes the authority of seniority, she basically has no right to speak. She just listens more and talks less, learns to observe colors, act according to the eyes of her elders, and obeys their orders.
Call for orders.
During those days when her parents were detained, Fang Qingfang was able to come to her house to eat and live together every day, which added a lot of lively atmosphere to the house and filled the shoes for her brother and sister who had not come home. Now that her mother has come back, she will no longer be there.
When she came home, the atmosphere at home immediately felt as cold as freezing. Home seemed to be no longer the warm and peaceful haven it used to be. Now that she was back home, it had become a kind of pressure, and she even had an indescribable feeling of fear... She really
She missed the time when the family talked about everything and had constant fights and laughter. She also missed the days when her mother was still there when she was a child... Every time she thought about it, she couldn't help but miss the person who was born with her.
Twin brother...
She dragged her somewhat tired body back to the door. It was already half past six in the evening, which was also the time for southern families to have dinner. She took out the house key from her shoulder bag, opened the door and walked in.
Full-time maid Yang Jieli has already prepared all the meals and placed them neatly on the large round dining table in the restaurant. The delicious aroma of the dishes fills the room, making people's appetites whet their appetite.
When Li Feng entered the house, she glanced at the restaurant out of habit, but still saw it was empty. Her mood suddenly sank, and her appetite was reduced by most.
She changed her shoes and walked directly to her room. Before she reached her room, she met her grandfather walking out of it.
As soon as he saw Li Feng, Li Jianzhong lost his temper at her: "Li Feng, call Xiaoling and Li Hu and see if you can ask them to come back! If this continues, I think we will call the police and have them arrested.
Just take it back and forget it!"
Before the words could be finished, Li Xiaoling's voice came from behind: "Grandpa, I'm back by myself, no one needs to call me."
Haha, this Li Xiaoling followed Li Feng and opened the door. Unexpectedly, she heard her grandfather lose his temper as soon as she entered the house, so she had to answer immediately.
Hearing the sound of his little granddaughter coming back, Li Jianzhong immediately opened his eyes. He walked past Li Feng and came out to see him. After confirming that he had seen her, he scolded: "You kid, if you come back home again, are you going to scare grandpa to death?"
Are you happy? If you don’t come back, you won’t even know that grandpa is dead, and I will make you never see grandpa and me again!”
"Grandpa, I know I was wrong. Grandpa, please don't say such unlucky words, you will still live a long life!"
As Li Xiaoling said this, she walked up and gave her grandfather a hug like a child meeting its mother.
It was such a heartfelt hug that resolved all the unhappiness and complaints in Grandpa's heart for many days.
Li Jianzhong couldn't blame her any more and said quickly: "Okay, grandpa, I won't blame you anymore. I'm going to wash my hands and have dinner right now. In the past few days when you haven't been home, I have been cooking your own meals. It's good to come back now."
, the food has just been prepared and served, we will have a good family dinner tonight."
After listening to her grandfather's words, Li Xiaoling nodded in agreement and went into the kitchen to wash her hands.
Li Zhengguo, who was in the room, heard that his youngest daughter was coming back and hurried out. When she came out of the kitchen, he looked at her seriously and scolded her: "You don't know how to come back? I think you have almost forgotten this home!"
"
After hearing her father's reproach, Li Xiaoling did not dare to look at him directly. She lowered her head and admitted her mistake and said, "Dad, I know I was wrong. I will never dare not come back again."
"It's good that you know!" Li Zhengguo couldn't bear to reprimand her more. After looking her up and down, he said heartbrokenly, "Look at you, haven't you had anything to eat these days? You've lost a lot of weight because of hunger!"
Hearing that her father still cared about her and loved her, Li Xiaoling finally raised her head and looked at him, and replied with a smile on her face: "Dad, I am losing weight. Listening to what you said, it seems that I have succeeded in losing weight these days!"
After hearing what she said, grandpa stepped forward and said: "Oh my god, why are you losing weight? Your figure has always been standard and suitable. If you lose weight again, you will not look good! Okay, no more talking, sit down quickly
Go to the dining table and have dinner to make up for all the hunger you’ve been hungry for these days.”
"Okay, I'll listen to you, grandpa!" After hearing this, Li Xiaoling sat down on her seat first.
So, the whole family sat down at the dining table one after another and started eating dinner.
However, as soon as everyone picked up the bowls and chopsticks, Li Hu opened the door and came back in a hurry...
Li Hu's return home was unexpected by everyone in the family. Everyone looked at him in surprise. But when he returned home, he seemed to be in a deserted place. He walked through the restaurant and sat there without even looking at him.
The family members at the dining table went straight to their rooms.
"Li Hu, stop! What are you going to do? If you don't even call your family when you come back, isn't this your home?"
After Li Zhengguo reacted, he stopped him and scolded him loudly.
After being ordered by his father, Li Hu stopped. He turned his head and looked at the eyes of his family looking at him, and responded with dissatisfaction: "Does this family still regard me as a family member? I have been kicked out of the house long ago!"
"Li Hu, why are you talking like this?" Li Feng, who was sitting next to his father, couldn't bear what he said and immediately scolded him, "Who doesn't treat you as a family member? No one drove you away, you left home on your own.
You won’t come back! If you don’t answer calls or text messages, you are really awesome! It’s because you don’t want to recognize the relatives of this family!”
"you……"
Li Hu was so angry at Li Feng that he didn't know where to come from, and he couldn't deal with it.
Seeing that this scene was very wrong, Li Jianzhong came back to his senses and said angrily: "You all, stop arguing! This is home, not the street outside! We are all from the same family, and you find it interesting to argue and fight like this.
Yeah?"
After hearing this, everyone was stunned and looked at Grandpa in awe, obeying his orders.
"Li Hu, if you still listen to me, grandpa, put down your things immediately, wash your hands, and come over to have dinner together. Food will be cooked for you every night, and you won't have to share it tonight."
Li Jianzhong spoke in a much calmer tone, then turned to the dining table and said to everyone: "Since everyone has gone home tonight, we can no longer quarrel. We are all members of the same family, so can't we talk it over properly? We have to quarrel loudly, right?"
Is it fun to scold you? I said, as long as I am here, everyone in this family must listen to me, and you will not allow you to indulge in chaos! Big things can be solved as long as they are discussed carefully. Why go to court?
We argue every day, and we run away from home and never come back... Is it like this? People outside know that our family is fighting and noisy like this, and they laugh to death! Okay, I won't say anything anymore. Now, let's eat peacefully and seriously.
"
The elder Li Jianzhong's words made everyone lower their heads, use their chopsticks and start eating.
Li Hu didn't dare to act wild anymore. He knew his mistake and walked to the living room to put down his backpack and things on his hands, and walked into the kitchen to wash his hands...
Over the years, whenever there were conflicts and quarrels in this family, Yang Jieli, as a full-time servant, would always be smart enough to hide away and try not to let the family see her. She was used to being ignored, and she tried her best to avoid it.
Let herself be as transparent as air in this family. She never got involved in any quarrels and quarrels in this family. Many times, she was afraid that her presence would affect the family, and she was even more afraid of getting involved in conflicts and fights.
But today, since she saw Li Hu come back, she began to become a little excited. Especially when she heard Li Hu's discordant voice, she was even more frightened. She felt that maybe she could no longer sit idly by and it was time.
It’s time to do something…
When Li Hu entered the kitchen and turned on the water in the sink to wash his hands, Yang Jieli, who was hiding in the kitchen, walked forward slightly and whispered to him:
"Li Hu, you must listen to grandpa and don't talk back to him. Otherwise, no one will be on your side to help you! Also, you must be more mature and stop having a childish temper.
Don't fight with your dad and your sister, you can't fight them..."
Listening to these words, Li Hu looked at the servant aunt who never dared to meddle in family affairs, and was very surprised. He was originally in a bad mood when he came home, but now that she said this, he shouted at her angrily:
"Get out! Who do you think you are? You don't need to talk about my family's affairs!"
Seeing his angry glare with red eyes, Yang Jieli was startled. She wanted to give him some kind advice and remind him, but she didn't expect that he would scold him so mercilessly! In an instant, Yang Jieli burst into tears because of her grievance.
The tears came out. She moved her lips and wanted to say something to him, but she didn't say anything yet. Helpless, she had no choice but to turn and walk to the corner of the kitchen, and sadly wiped away the tears that came out...
