Chapter 18: Understanding
“I thank you Miss Fourth,” Mrs. Wu waited nearby for Yu Wan to finish eating and put away her things.
After eating and taking a shower, Yu Wan went to bed and lay on the comfortable bed, feeling more at ease than ever before.
As soon as midnight passed, everyone in the house fell asleep, and Yu Wan stepped into the space.
The old doctor said during the day that Feng's illness depends on her elixir, but how can we use the elixir to get out the love-eating Gu? You can't just take a piece of grass to tease it out like you did when you were a kid.
Yu Wan took out the books in the bookcase one by one and looked through them. There was no book about Gu insects. He turned around and found a book suitable for Yu Haoran and the others.
She couldn't find it, so she practiced some practice in the space and then read a book until she felt dozed off before falling asleep.
The next day, Yu Wan got up early and ran in the yard. After running, Wu brought her face wash, mouthwash, and breakfast.
At this time, Xiao Liu also got up, and behind her was another woman named Jiang. When she saw Yu Wan, she bowed to her.
The little girl saw Yu Wan and threw herself into her arms.
"Did you sleep alone last night?" Yu Wan asked her softly. Today, Xiaoliu wore a pink dress and two buns on her head. She ignored her thin body and sallow face. A very cute girl.
"Well, Fourth Sister, Xiao Liu slept very well, the beautiful bed and the fragrant quilt, Xiao Liu likes it. Fourth Sister, where did you go yesterday? You haven't come back so late." Xiao Liu pouted.
“As long as Xiaoliu likes it, the fourth sister went to catch pheasants last night, and we can eat them at noon today. Come on, let’s go have breakfast. After we finish eating, we’ll go see my mother.” Yu Wan picked up Xiao Liu and returned to the main room.
Yu Wan looked at the breakfast. There were two bowls of rice porridge, six meat buns, and a plate of pickles. In this rural area, this kind of breakfast is already excellent. After the sisters finished eating, Yu Wan led Xiao Liu to Feng's courtyard.
In the yard, Mrs. Feng was supported by Yu Dahai and looked at the flowers and plants in the small garden.
Yu Wan took Xiaoliu and said, "Good morning, Mom."
Yu Dahai still called him after seeing Yu Wan. He felt inexplicably happy and responded eagerly: "Hey, you two sisters have eaten?"
Yu Wan heard Yu Dahai’s voice today, and she raised her lips and smiled, “We’ve eaten, how are you doing today?”
"Your mother is fine today, Xiao Si'er, when will you show your mother?" Yu Dahai asked Yu Wan.
"I have to go to the mountains to find medicine. Let's go up the mountain tomorrow. Later I have to see if there is a teacher who can enlighten my brothers and them so that they can all go to school next year. The eldest brother, the second brother, and the third brother all missed the best enlightenment. You have to make up for your age." Yu Wan paid attention to Yu Dahai's expression as she spoke. Sure enough, when he talked about reading, a flash of pain and a flash of hope flashed on his face.
Hey, Yu Wan let out a long sigh. This man has been cowardly all his life. I don’t know if the experience of the past two days has given him any insights.
Being filial to parents is a child’s obligation and a natural thing, but blindly being filial will harm others and yourself.
“Xiaosi’er, dad...hey, dad is not a good dad.” Yu Dahai's heart was full of sourness at this time. The changes in the past two days shocked his rock-like heart.
He has often asked himself in the past two days if he was really wrong before?
Yu Wan helped Feng back to the house, and took out a few fruits, peeled them all and put them on the plate for everyone to eat.
Yu Wan sat next to Fengshi and gave Fengshi a piece to eat. She looked at Yu Dahai and said, "But you are a good son."
Yu Dahai was startled.
"Mom, dad, Xiao Si'er, Xiao Liu are here too?" At this time, Yu Haoran and his three brothers came in with Xiao Qi in their arms, and saw Yu Dahai with his head lowered.
“Xiao Si’er, what’s wrong with dad?” Yu Haoran asked.
Yu Wan saw that her whole family was here, so she simply let Yu Dahai sort out the matter, so as not to keep it in his mind. One day he would do something unexpected.
"Dad, our whole family happens to be here. Let me explain it to you clearly. You can think about it yourself and see what I say and do."
“Brother, please sit down,” Yu Wan said.
Yu Haoran: "Okay, Xiao Si'er, we will listen to whatever you say, just say it."
Yu Wan: "Just now, my father said that he is not a good father, and I said that he is a good son. There is nothing wrong with that, right? Dad, think about it, he is also a son, why do you still don't want to see our family even though you have done so much work? "
Yu Wan looked at Yu Dahai, who squirmed and glanced at the children in front of him.
"Because of your temper, your temper is cowardly. You can't fight back when hit, scolded, or argue. You have never thought that you are like this. On the contrary, grandma looks down on you even more, thinking that you are a coward and useless. People, you can't bring them value or reputation. You can only do some work. On the other hand, they are right and wrong. You don't dare to say anything when something happens. Anyway, you don't care about anything. It's your fault, just admit it."
Yu Wan stared at Yu Dahai’s darkened face, “Do you think I’m right?”
Yu Wan continued: "If you are soft-tempered, you should be softer. But your biggest mistake is that you only care about having children and don't care how to raise them well. You have not thought about your children's future. Even the uncle Everyone knows it’s a good deal for his son, but what about you? You still say that your son works and your brothers’ sons study.”
Yu Wan looked at brother Yu Haoran, their eyes were filled with tears.
"Actually, I really want to dig out your brain and have a look. Is your brain filled with water or is it made of straw? You can even think about it with your ass. How much does your son have to do with you if he has a promising future? Is he giving you money? Flowers? Or find a wife for your son and start a family? Or do you want someone to support you until your death?"
“Actually, you can think of it this way. Grandma and grandma know how to protect their sons and grandsons like chickens, but what about you?”
"Honoring your parents is a natural thing, but you must also have a certain degree. Your parents live a prosperous life, but you and your children are like beggars. What do you think?"
…
“Xiao Si’er, dad knows that dad is wrong, dad is sorry for your mother and you, wu wu wu...”.
At this moment, Yu Dahai was sobbing loudly, as if he was crying out all the grievances he had suffered for so many years and his own inaction.
Yu Wan winked at brother Yu Haoran, and the three brothers immediately stood up, helped Yu Dahai, who was crying, and carried him to the bedroom.
None of the three brothers tried to persuade him, and they all came out immediately after being helped in.
“Xiao Si’er, is there nothing wrong with this?” Yu Haoran asked.
"What's the problem? He should have reflected on it long ago," Yu Wan replied. Although what she said today was a bit harsh and unpleasant, she had to say it. Yu Dahai's temperament is too weak. Today's life is a little easier. Tomorrow, Old Yutou and Yu Yang will come to make a noise, and he will immediately compromise.
