Spring scenery in the fields

Chapter 223 Chapter 2 Father and Son

Shen Ping laughed a few times: "Yang Cuicui from Zhaojia Village is the one you borrowed the donkey cart from. You should all know her."

"She came to me that day and said she would find a husband for me. She talked to me a lot."

"In order to get married, I have to change my family even if I can't."

He smiled cheerfully, with a raised brow that had never dropped since I saw him.

Shen Rongshan came to Shen Liang and said, "I plan to rest at home for a few days."

"About three or four days. This time I'll go to town and come back after the rice is harvested."

"When my family is done with their work, I will go and help your family harvest the rice."

When planting the seedlings, he was thinking of going to their house after helping Aunt Lan, but Aunt Wang came to invite him, and he couldn't refuse.

"I can handle it. After harvesting the rice, we still have to thresh it. You take care of your family's work."

"It's okay. My family only has seven acres of land, so the harvest will be quick."

Shen Liang glanced at him and thanked him.

"We don't have to be so polite." Shen Rongshan patted his shoulder, "By the way, how is Uncle Zhuan?"

"My dad is still the same. The broken leg was a big blow to him. Sometimes he would sit on the bench for an entire afternoon."

He and his mother advised at home that people should look forward, as things have already happened and there is no use regretting. They should think carefully about what to do in the future.

After taking a shower and returning home, Miao Zhaodi came out of the house and said, "Leave the clothes there. I'll wash them tomorrow morning."

"Mom, I've washed myself, you take a rest."

"You are very tired from working in town, just take a good rest when you come back, you don't need to worry about the housework."

Shen Liang hung the clothes on the clothesline, looked at the darkening sky, and sighed deeply.

"Why are you sighing for no reason?"

His eyes showed fatigue: "Mom."

"Hey." Miao Zhaodi responded softly, waiting for his next words.

She knew her son was working hard and wanted to give him some relief.

But the situation at home didn't allow him to relax at all.

After a long time, he said, "It's nothing, go back to sleep."

"Mom, I'm going back to sleep." He turned and went into his room and closed the door.

Looking at the closed door, Miao Zhaodi stood outside the yard for a while before turning around and going into the house.

Sitting on the edge of the bed, with Shen Shuzhun lying behind him, he had his eyes closed but was not asleep.

"My son has been out for a while and he's only come back now. You should at least say, 'Thank you for your hard work, son.'"

"He is your biological son. Do you still have this son in your heart?"

She turned to look at the man who still had his eyes closed, and said with anger in her heart: "If you don't have this son in your heart, then let's separate the family."

"Let him go out by himself and not worry about our affairs. This will save him from working himself to death and not getting any favor from you."

Shen Shuzhuang slowly opened his eyes and said calmly, "I raised him to this age, and he's already tired of raising me for only a few years?"

"You..." Miao Zhaodi looked at the man in front of her with hatred, "You are his father, it's right that he supports you."

"But you have a sullen face all the time. Who would feel comfortable seeing you? We didn't break your leg. Why do you have such a cold face towards us all the time? If you have the guts, go to town and find that family."

The more I think about it, the angrier I get.

"I'm so unlucky to marry you. I lost my first child, and I finally got pregnant with another one. I've never let him eat good food since he was a child."

"Ever since you broke your leg, he's been working his ass off in town. Has he ever said anything wrong about you?"

"Even if you are his father, so what? There are many sons who don't take care of their own children. You should be thankful that our son is filial, otherwise you would starve to death and no one would care."

Miao Zhaodi spoke louder and louder, forgetting that Shen Liang was next door. She became more and more excited and began to cry uncontrollably.

She choked up and said, "Our son is nineteen now. He is so old now. When will he be able to get married?"

"If he hadn't used up all the money in the family to cure your leg, he would have married and had children, and the children would have been old enough to help with cooking."

"What evil did I do in my previous life that I have to suffer in your Shen family in this life. I..."

A knock on the door interrupted her.

"Mom, open the door."

Miao Zhaodi quickly wiped the tears from her face, calmed down, walked over and opened the door: "Why don't you sleep in the room."

Shen Liang glanced at the person on the bed. The light in the room was dim and he couldn't see the expression on his face.

"Mom, why are you crying?"

"It's okay, a bug got into your eye. Go back to bed and have a good rest."

He stood at the door without moving. After a few breaths, he walked into the room and sat down at the end of the bed tiredly.

"Dad, let's talk."

Shen Shuzhun didn't reply and closed his eyes.

Miao Zhaodi closed the door and stood quietly aside.

Shen Liang was silent for a while, then said softly: "Dad, you are my dad, no matter what you become, I will support you."

"It doesn't matter if I suffer a little or get tired, but it hurts me to see my mother busying around at home alone."

"I don't ask you to do anything at home, but when mom comes home tired after a day, and you don't want to talk, give her a good look."

I glanced at the person next to me and saw that there was no movement.

He sighed deeply: "Dad, you know, I don't want to stay at home, because as long as I see you, I will remember your leg. It was because you wanted to make money to marry me a wife that your leg got injured."

"I feel uncomfortable. If I don't see you when I go to town, I won't think about your legs all the time."

"Dad, I'm very tired. Sometimes I wonder why I should live. It would be better to die."

Miao Zhaodi was shocked: "Liang'er, please don't have this idea, you still have mother."

After hearing the last sentence, Shen Shuzhun finally reacted.

Shen Liang continued, "I won't die, because if I die, Dad and Mom's life will be even more miserable. I will live well."

He stood up slowly: "Dad, I know you hate me in your heart. It's because of me that I hurt you..."

He didn't say anything else, nor did he want to say anything more, so he turned around and left the house.

Miao Zhaodi hurriedly chased after him, looked at the closed door, and leaned beside it and said, "Liang'er, it's not because of you."

Shen Shuzhuang's leg was broken when he fell down while working.

The reason why he felt resentful towards his son was that he took the job in order to make money for his son to marry a wife, which led to his accidentally breaking his leg.

The person lying in the house opened his eyes and stared at the dark ceiling in a trance.

He felt resentful in his heart, but in the final analysis, he fell down accidentally.

Miao Zhaodi walked into the house, left the door open, sat on a bench, and stared blankly outside.

"I don't blame him." Or, "When I first broke my leg, I felt a little resentful."

Hearing his words, the people around him didn't react at all.

"He is my son. I just...I just feel like I have become a burden to you. I...I don't want to do this to you."
