1959Siheyuan, a Turnaround

Chapter 168 Kindness

When Li Weiguo brought the news that Li Dajiang's lame leg was expected to recover, the originally calm atmosphere was instantly broken and the villagers surrounding him were all shocked.

You know, Li Dajiang's lameness has always been a regret in the hearts of the villagers.

He lost his job at the steel mill because of his leg disease and was eventually replaced by his daughter-in-law Wang Guifang.

Now hearing that there is hope for his lame leg to be cured, everyone is sincerely happy for him. After all, Li Dajiang has helped the villagers a lot in the past.

However, when everyone reacted, they found that Qin Xinghua had secretly slipped away.

People were talking about her behavior, and there was endless criticism and contempt.

It was the first time they had seen a mother who didn't care about her son's life or death. After hearing what Li Weiguo said just now, didn't she feel ashamed?

Li Weiguo paid no attention to the discussions. He first settled Li Li Dahu on a small bench, and then took the cloth bag containing the medicines needed for the next seven days from the bicycle.

He walked over and patiently explained to Li Dahu how to take each medicine, and repeatedly told Li Dahu to have confidence in his condition.

"Uncle Dahu, don't stay indoors all the time. Go out more often, get more sun, and exercise more. This way you can recover faster."

Li Weiguo's voice was gentle but firm.

Li Dahu nodded repeatedly with trembling hands, and kept saying that he would be obedient and take the medicine well.

Li Weiguo didn't want to stay any longer. Li Dahu's medicine had already been delivered, so he said goodbye to Li Dahu and the villagers.

Before leaving, his two little cousins ​​escorted him out. He took out two handfuls of White Rabbit milk candies from his pocket and handed them to them.

He also reminded them to take good care of Li Dahu, and then hurried back to the city on his bicycle.

Li Dahu was excited and followed Li Weiguo's instructions to find some water and take the medicine.

Ten minutes after taking the medicine, he felt unprecedented comfort in his chest and his breathing became much easier.

Not long after, he felt sleepy and staggered back to the house, lay down on the kang and slowly fell asleep.

When Li Dahu's wife Chen Suzhi came home from work, she noticed something different about the house as soon as she entered.

At this time of day, you could always hear Li Dahu coughing, but today the house was unusually quiet.

She was startled, thinking something had happened, and rushed into the house.

When she saw Li Dahu sleeping quietly on the kang with steady breathing, she finally felt relieved.

She also gently tried Li Dahu's breath, and after confirming that everything was normal, she retreated with peace of mind.

Later, she found her two younger sons in the yard and was about to ask them about what happened today.

The two children rushed to say: "Mom, grandma came to make trouble again today and wanted to take our chicken away."

Chen Suzhi frowned at first, and a surge of anger surged in her heart.

The two children looked at Chen Suzhi and frowned and continued, "But Brother Li Weiguo came and scolded grandma harshly in front of the villagers.

Brother Li Weiguo said that we cannot bully our family members like this and we must be conscientious.

Grandma was so ashamed that she left in shame.

Moreover, Brother Li Weiguo brought medicine to Dad, saying that Dad’s illness would be cured in seven days!”

After hearing what her sons said, Chen Suzhi was so excited that she was speechless.

She didn't expect that Li Weiguo not only sent the medicine, but also helped them solve such a big problem.

Thinking back to the hardships of the past and looking at the hope now, her eyes became moist.

"Wei Qiang, Wei Bang, you must remember your brother Wei Guo's kindness, understand?"

"I know, Mom. My big brother Weiguo gave each of us a handful of White Rabbit candies. Mom will give you one!"

The two brothers handed over the candies in their hands as if they were offering treasures, but Chen Suzhi did not take any: "Take it and eat it yourself! Mom doesn't want to eat it!"

"Mom, just eat one piece! We'll ask my sister to keep the rest for us when she comes back! We'll save them and eat them slowly..."

Chen Suzhi smiled and picked up a piece, then patted her two sons' heads lovingly: "Good, good!"

When Qin Xinghua slipped back home in embarrassment, the person she saw was Li Quanzhen sitting in the yard with a stern face.

He looked at his wife, angrily asked: "What were you doing just now?"

Qin Xinghua hesitated and didn't dare to say anything, because it was Li Xiuzhi who suggested that she go to Li Dahu's house to ask for chicks.

She didn't dare let Li Quanzhen know. Li Quanzhen had been brooding over her because the money lost from home, and he would either punch or kick her.

Although the situation had eased a little in the past two days, the old man still did not have a good face towards her.

"No... I didn't do anything. I just went out for a while." Qin Xinghua avoided his gaze and didn't dare to tell him the truth.

"Going out for a while? Why did I hear that you went to the Dahu family to make trouble again? Next time you go there to cause trouble, I will break your legs!"

Li Quanzhen stood up suddenly, pointed at Qin Xinghua, his voice becoming a little sharp with anger.

Qin Xinghua looked at her old man with disbelief, and her previous timidity disappeared.

"What's wrong with me going to my son's house? Why don't you let me go?"

Li Quanzhen widened his eyes and veins on his forehead bulged. He really didn't expect Qin Xinghua to dare to challenge him.

"Why don't you let me go? Don't you know clearly? You know what you are going to do at Dahu's house.

Don't think I don't know what you and Li Xiuzhi are secretly plotting. Now my eldest brother's family has already had a problem with me. If you continue to plot, you can imagine what will happen. I know my eldest brother and his wife's temper best. If you want to get their forgiveness, you'd better keep your tail between your legs and don't let me hear you go to Dahu's house again!"

Qin Xinghua's tears welled up in her eyes, and her voice became louder. "Why can't I go? He's my son! I worked so hard to raise him! I'll go and see what's wrong. You have no conscience, you only know how to side with your elder brother!"

"You still think you're right?" Li Quanzhen was so angry that he was shaking all over. "You went to Dahu's house and caused a lot of chaos. How will my elder brother and his wife look at us? Can this family still live like this in the future?"

Qin Xinghua put her hands on her hips and said, "Humph, I don't care. Dahu originally belongs to us. Why shouldn't I take it?"

"Get lost! Who told you such inhumane words? Do you still want Dahu to recognize you in the future? Don't let this last bit of family affection be destroyed by you!"

Li Quanzhen was so angry that he kicked over the stool next to him.

Qin Xinghua was not to be outdone, "Family affection? Do they treat us as family? Shouldn't the best marriage be given to Xiuzhi? But what about your elder brother and sister-in-law? They let Wang Dahua tell her cousin about it! Do they really think that others don't know what they did?"

"Then you can't be so heartless as to come and force the Dahu family to death!" Li Quanzhen roared.

Qin Xinghua wiped away her tears, "Heartless? You still say I'm heartless, but who was it that ignored the life and death of Dahu's family and withheld the food and medical expenses?"

"Qin Xinghua! If you don't want to live like this anymore, just pack up and get out! Stop talking nonsense in front of me!"

This sentence immediately ignited Li Quanzhen's anger. It was all his fault for doing that thing without knowing the consequences. Now his elder brother and sister-in-law didn't care about him anymore, but Qin Xinghua still dared to bring it up!

At this time, the neighbors heard the quarrel and gathered at the door to look around.

Li Quanzhen felt even more ashamed when he saw this scene, "Idiot! Are you satisfied now!!!"
