The Li family had a very prosperous year. Not only did everyone in the family put on neat clothes, but they also cooked two meat dishes.

Looking at the braised pork and pork stewed cabbage on the table, Li Hong's complexion finally improved, and he moved his chopsticks and said, "Eat."

Li Hong picked up a few chopsticks of meat in a row, feeling the glutton in his stomach calm down a little, and then looked at the thin Li Liu.

Although Li Liu is eleven years old, perhaps because she has not had enough to eat, she looks only nine years old.

But a small face can already be seen to be beautiful, as long as you eat well, you will definitely be beautiful.

She looks like his mother.

Li Hong picked up a chopstick of braised pork for her, "Eat more, it's rare for our family to eat this kind of meat, but when you get married, you might be able to eat it every day."

Mei's face turned pale, and Li Hong also clenched the chopsticks in his hand, but the two of them didn't say anything.

Li Liu is not stupid, not to mention there is a lesson from the past, the elder sister's father said so to the elder sister before she got married.

Her face was slightly pale, she stared at the meat in the bowl for a while, then ate it vigorously, even if she died, she would have to be full before she died.

The Li family has a tradition of keeping watch at night. Because lamp oil is expensive, Li Hong turned off the lamp, and the whole family sat on a couch by the moonlight to watch the night.

Looking up at the moon outside, Li Hong smacked his mouth and said: "The days are different. When your grandfather was still here, our Li family also kept a big house. It was lively at that time. No one in the whole village can compare with it." Our home."

"Twenty-nine years ago, your grandfather would go to the city to buy goods for the New Year. Not only pork, but also chicken, duck and fish. After thirty, we would prepare dinner, worship the ancestors first, and then eat in the main room. There are four cold dishes. There are two soups and eight hot dishes, and if you can't finish it at once, heat it on the stove, and continue to eat it during the vigil at night."

Li Liu couldn't help swallowing, Li Jun lowered his eyes and looked at his hands. He had already guessed from the conversation between his mother and his cousin that his grandfather and uncle left a large amount of property, but it was a pity that his father left those All the money was gone.

"It's just that you can eat those leftovers for supper?" Li Hong continued: "Your grandparents prepared a lot of snacks, just eating those will fill your stomach."

Li Liu couldn't help but tugged at his brother and asked, "Brother, have you eaten too?"

Li Jun had already remembered things at that time, and nodded slightly. It was only during the Chinese New Year. Li's family lived a good life, and they could only eat meat every few days on weekdays.

Grandfather said that the blessings of the year are in the few days of the New Year, and we should not lose money to our family. During the New Year, we eat well, and we will be more energetic when the spring begins.

The days when his grandfather was around were the happiest days in his memory, when he didn't worry about whether the sea was chopping, or about rain or drought.

What he thinks about every day is where and what to play today, and the worst thing he does is to raise eyebrows at his demented second sister, jealous that she has meat or candy.

Li Hong talked about it for half the night and then leaned on the couch to sleep in a daze.

Mrs. Mei went back to the house and hugged the quilt to cover him, but Li Jun stopped him and put the quilt on his younger sister. He lowered his eyes and said, "Mother, Dad is very powerful, so let the quilt be given to my younger sister."

"Then I'll go and bring my little sister's quilt."

"Then what's the use of the quilt, it's still not that cold without the cover."

Mei was a little embarrassed, "Then, you can't let your father hang out like this, what if you catch a cold?"

"Then mother, cover the little sister's quilt for dad."

Mrs. Mei stayed for a while, finally agreed, and covered Li Hong with Li Liu's thin quilt.

Mei Shi leaned on the couch and shared the quilt with Li Liugai, waiting for the morning to arrive.

The room fell silent for a while, except for Li Jun, everyone fell asleep.

He was silent for a while, and finally pulled off the quilt on his father...

Li Hong woke up from the cold. When he woke up, he saw that he had taken over the entire couch, and his quilt had been kicked under the couch. But contracted this stinky disease?

He felt his throat was dry and itchy, his nose couldn't help running down, and his complexion couldn't help changing, it was obvious that he had caught a cold.

There was no medical treatment or medicine in the exile. How many people died of wind and cold?

Li Hong immediately jumped up, went back to the house top-heavy, searched for the money he had hidden, and took out fifty coins for Li Jun, "You are walking fast, run to the county seat and buy me some typhoid medicine immediately, hurry up!"

Li Jun pushed the money back, and said indifferently: "There are still two doses of the medicine my mother took last time, why don't you cook it for Dad, since it's wind and cold anyway."

Li Hong thought about the last time Mei was sick and lay at home for three days, he couldn't help being angry, and asked, "Did you buy medicine last time? Where did you get the money from?"

"Big sister gave it."

Li Hong's anger subsided a little, but his complexion was still bad, "Are you hiding it from me on purpose?"

"Father," Li Jun called out, looked him in the eyes and asked, "Don't you feel sorry for my mother? When she was sick, you didn't tell her to get her medicine, and you didn't even enter the house very much. You went out all day long. run……"

"It's okay, it's okay, don't bother your mother," Li Hong interrupted him impatiently, "Hurry up and take the medicine to boil, I feel a little headache."

Li Jun pursed his lips. His father was not like this before. Although he was lazy and ambitious, he was really kind to the three of them. He went in and out with his mother, and rarely blushed.

Li Jun turned around and took out the two sets of medicines from the cabinet. The poor and lowly couples mourned everything, maybe it was the fault of poverty.

Mrs. Mei took Li Liu out for visits. The neighbors would pay New Year's greetings to each other on the first day of junior high school. Li Baolu and Li He would come back on the second day of junior high school.

Li Jun personally guarded the medicine stove, and took it to Li Hong after it was cooled down. Li Hong took the medicine and drank it down, suppressing the bitterness in his mouth and frowning: "Why does this medicine taste wrong?"

Although Li Hong is ignorant, but after all, he has followed his father's ears and eyes, and he can still recognize ordinary medicines.

Li Jun's palms were sweating, but he said calmly: "This is the medicine that someone brought back from the county, maybe the prescription is different from that of grandfather's?"

Li Hong snorted coldly, "Do you dare to compare the prescriptions of a peasant with your grandfather's? Your grandfather is an imperial physician."

He stuffed the bowl back and said with a splitting headache, "Forget it, I'm going to sleep, and cook another for me at night. If it doesn't work, I'll go to the county seat tomorrow."

Li Jun agreed.

In the evening, Li Jun brought him another bowl of medicine, and Li Hong drank it all in one gulp. After a while, he felt something was wrong. He felt that his hands and feet were constantly moving around. The most terrifying thing was that he would unconsciously twitch the corners of his mouth.

Here are the signs of a stroke!

How is this possible? How could he have a stroke when he was in his prime of life?

Li Hong looked sharply at Li Jun who was on the side, pointed at him with trembling fingers, and shouted with his mouth crooked: "You, you..."

Li Jun's eyes were slightly red, but he clenched his fists tightly and refused to take a step forward.

After a while, Li Hongcai roared, "Nizi!"

"Father, I will give you the antidote after you don't betray your sister again."

Li Hong stared.

Li Jun looked at him seriously, turned around and left, and when he reached the door, he stopped and asked, "Father, do you know that nobleman likes to abuse children? It is said that his family likes to buy girls aged eight or nine, but those girls rarely buy them." I lived for half a year. I remember one time when my grandfather came back from a doctor’s visit and bought a particularly beautiful set of clothes for my second sister. You were very angry and hugged Niuniu to find your grandfather. You said that she was younger than your second sister. How could your grandfather favor your second sister? ? You used to put your little sister on your shoulders to go out to play, you used to love her so much, why do you forget all about it now?"

Li Hong was taken aback, but realized after a while that this was not a reason for his son to be unfilial to him.

Killing a father is a capital crime, poisoning him, such a treasonous thing, no matter what the reason.

Li Hong glared at him.

However, Li Jun opened the door and went out, leaving him alone.

Mei did not find out that her husband had become a useless person until dinner. She cried and laughed for a while, and finally pinched Li Hong, stared at him with red eyes and said, "I am the one who drugged you, I am the one who drugged you." .”

Li Hong stared at him coldly, Mei Shi was his pillow, he knew her best, but if she had the guts, they wouldn't live like this.

He snorted coldly in his heart, closed his eyes and remained silent, trying to take the blame for her son, but there was no way.

He wants to see how capable Li Jun is to detain him. He has made an appointment with Liu Laosan to pick up Niuniu tomorrow.

Li Hong closed his eyes and waited for backup, but Li He and her husband Lu Tong, who were not far from them, were the first to arrive at Li's house the next day.

Lu Tong is only a few years younger than Li Hong, and a full round older than Li He. He is a little thin and has dark eyes. No one can see that he has a tendency to domestic violence just by looking at his appearance, but it is Lian Li who drives him crazy. Jun is afraid.

Li Jun once saw him go crazy. At that time, he went to Liucun to see his eldest sister, and he helped his eldest sister carry water. He was obviously fine a moment ago, smiling, but suddenly for some reason, he suddenly went crazy and grabbed the eldest sister. Knocking his head to the ground, he punched and kicked Li He desperately.

At that time Li Jun was almost mad, rushed up to fight with Lu Tong, he looked very thin, but he was very strong, at that time Li Jun was almost beaten to death, it was his elder sister who crawled out and asked someone to hold him down.

At that time, Lu Tong prepared Li Li to apologize, and Li Hong forgave him.

But Li Jun hated him to the bone. This man is a lunatic, and his father married his eldest sister to him despite knowing that he was exiled for beating his wife to death.

Li He carried a basket, which not only contained a few catties of rice, but also a dozen eggs, she handed the basket to her mother, and said with a smile: "Mother, these eggs are for you and your little sister to make up for, don't you Too tired."

Mei looked at the wound on Li He's head, and almost couldn't breathe. This is a new wound, apparently only two days ago. At this moment, she doesn't blame her son for his disobedience. She dragged her eldest daughter , directly ignoring Lu Tong, "Follow mother into the house."

Lu Tong didn't care at all. When he was in his hometown, he didn't dare to hit his wife on the head. Not only was he afraid that his wife's natal family would find out, but he was also afraid that his neighbors would criticize him. But this time he was in exile, and everyone knew why he was exiled. And no relatives, why bother to cover up?

And before Li He married him, the Li family also knew about his details, but she was a wife bought with silver, so if she beat him up, what could the Li family do with him?
