Returning wealthy individuals develop their hometowns and become rich in the 1980s

Meanwhile, Liu Shaozhong saw that his mother had actually brought the "Uncle Lin" she had been talking about back home. He was furious and turned around and ran towards the village entrance, wanting to go to Shangzhai.

Liu Shaozhong had always been resentful about his mother's remarriage. Liu Guomin would always sneak to the school gate to wait for Liu Shaozhong during the lunch break, bring him food, and say some caring words to him.

After witnessing Chen Lianxiang's divorce due to Zhang Yi and her subsequent life of driving luxury cars and dressing like a wealthy woman, Liu Li decided to "turn over a new leaf." She changed her ways and began to act like a good grandmother, secretly going to the school gate every day to see her three children, hoping to awaken the "grandmother's love" in their hearts.

Liu Shaoling is old and not easily fooled. Moreover, she is somewhat timid. She was beaten by Liu Lishi in her younger years, and whenever she sees Liu Lishi, she runs away on her bicycle.

Liu Shaoqun vividly remembers bending down to pick up stones and throw them at Liu Lishi whenever he saw her. Only Liu Shaozhong, after being "cared for" by Liu Guomin and Liu Lishi, always thought about letting his mother Chen Lianxiang go back to live with the Liu family in Shangzhai.

Children of Liu Shaozhong's age are very sensitive. Coupled with the sudden changes in his family, although his maternal grandparents, uncles, aunts, cousins ​​and other relatives treated him very well, he still felt uncomfortable being a dependent.

In addition, some gossipy women in Lianzhai Village were envious of Chen Lianxiang's excellent and free life after her divorce. They would always gossip about her intentionally or unintentionally in the village. As they talked more, the children in the village also heard a lot of it and would laugh at Liu Shaozhong in front of him, saying that he was a child without a father.

Liu Shaozhong got into fights with many children because of this, and even got into fights at school that went too far. Chen Lianxiang would call him over and ask her to take Liu Shaozhong home to discipline him. When Chen Lianxiang asked Liu Shaozhong why he fought, he was like a gourd with its mouth sawed off, and he just wouldn't say.

At this moment, Liu Shaozhong cried and ran towards the village entrance. He just wanted to get to his home in Shangzhai and tell his father, Liu Guomin, that his mother was planning to remarry.

As he ran, Liu Shaozhong grew tired and sat down under a tree by the village road, sobbing softly. He felt extremely wronged and all he wanted was for his family to be reunited. Although his grandmother, Liu Lishi, often beat and scolded him and his two siblings, his father, Liu Guomin, was still very good to them.

He didn't want to leave his father completely, to go to America, because he didn't want to never see his father, Liu Guomin, again.

The more he thought about it, the more wronged he felt. The more wronged he felt, the more stubborn Liu Shaozhong became. But he couldn't change his mother's mind. In his stubbornness, he simply burst into tears.

Chen Zailong drove up the road from the village entrance. It was already dark, but the bright headlights illuminated the road, and he quickly spotted his nephew Liu Shaozhong, who was squatting under a tree, crying with his head in his hands. He slowly stopped the car, and Liu Shaozhong, also blinded by the headlights, turned his head to the side. When he saw someone coming, he tried to run away again.

Chen Zailong ran a few steps, grabbed Liu Shaozhong's hand, picked him up, and placed him in the back seat of the car. Then Chen Zailong got in as well, pressed down on Liu Shaozhong who was trying to run away, and said to him gently, "Shaozhong, are you still going to listen to your fourth uncle?"

Liu Shaozhong was still sobbing softly with his head down. Chen Zailong knew the boy was stubborn, so he comforted him, "Are you upset because your mother brought Lin Qingsheng home?"

"Fourth Uncle, I don't want my mother to marry that Lin guy," Liu Shaozhong said, his neck stiff as he looked at Chen Zailong. Chen Zailong chuckled and scolded him, ruffling his head. "You brat, do you want your mother to spend her whole life taking care of you three siblings at such a young age?"

"Can't your mother pursue her own happiness?"

"I have a father, and I don't want that guy surnamed Lin to be my father. I hate him!"

"So, do you dislike your mom?"

Liu Shaozhong was taken aback by Chen Zailong's question and shook his head. Chen Zailong then said, "Since you don't dislike your mother, why do you dislike the person your mother likes? You've never even had contact with Lin Qingsheng, so why do you dislike him?"

"Because he's going to take my mom away, to take my mom, my sister, and my brother to America, so I'll never see my dad again," Liu Shaozhong said, grabbing Chen Zailong's hand and pleading, "Fourth Uncle, can you please talk to my mom and tell her to stop talking to that Lin guy, and to make her reconcile with my dad!"

"Your mother has already divorced your father, Shaozhong. You know better than your fourth uncle what kind of life your mother lived in your father's house, how your grandmother treated her badly," Chen Zailong said sternly, looking at Liu Shaozhong, whose face was covered in tears.

"Shaozhong, your mother isn't just your mother; she's also my fourth uncle's sister, and the sister of your eldest, second, and third uncles," Chen Zailong said in a deep voice. "Do you want me to call your fifth uncle right now and ask him yourself if he'd allow his sister to remarry your father?"

When Liu Shaozhong heard Chen Zailong mention his fifth uncle, Chen Zaixing, he fell silent. He turned his face away, not daring to look Chen Zailong in the eye, and just wiped his face haphazardly with his sleeve. His fifth uncle, Chen Zaixing, was his mother Chen Lianxiang's most beloved younger brother. When his mother drank pesticide and almost died, it was his fifth uncle who was the first to rush to his house.

Although Fifth Uncle seemed carefree and could play around with his nephews and nieces, he knew that Fifth Uncle could be quite terrifying when he got serious. He had once secretly witnessed his father sneaking to see him at the school gate, only to be caught by Fifth Uncle, who was there to enroll his cousin Rongguo.

When Fifth Uncle saw his father, Liu Guomin, his face turned as black as if a layer of charcoal could be scraped off. He pointed at his father's nose and started cursing. If there hadn't been teachers at the school present, Fifth Uncle probably would have hit him.

"Why aren't you saying anything?" Chen Zailong softened his tone when he saw his nephew finally quiet down. "We uncles are like you, and your mother is like your sister Shaoling. If someone keeps bullying your sister Shaoling, would you, as her younger brother, stand for it?"

"cannot!"

"If even a little kid like you knows that's wrong, do you think your uncle and I, as adults, would just stand by and watch your mother go into the fire again?"

"But that was my grandma bullying my mom, not my dad," Liu Shaozhong said stubbornly, though his voice was very soft.

"Silly child," Chen Zailong sighed, reaching out to pull his nephew closer. "Your father didn't bully your mother, but he didn't protect her either. Your grandmother made such a fuss, what did your father do?"

"He didn't do anything!"

"Your mother suffered so much injustice in the Liu family, and your grandmother's abuse of her only worsened, while your father turned a blind eye and pretended to be the most filial son!"

"Now that your mother has stood up on her own and can provide a good life for the three of you, you want to drag her back. Shaozhong, this is not filial piety, this is selfishness."

"Think about it carefully, and see if what your fourth uncle said is right or wrong!"
