Chapter 202 Open Your Heart

Liu Qingshan felt very uncomfortable when he heard these words from his uncle.

There is a local proverb called: Parents hope their daughter will become a phoenix and their son will become a dragon, and brothers and sisters hope that their brothers and sisters will be poor.

This means that most parents hope that their children can become successful and have a good life, but between brothers and sisters, they hope that their brothers and sisters are poorer than themselves.

This sounds strange, but when you think about it carefully, it makes sense.

If you are only children, you naturally don’t have this idea, but if there are more brothers and sisters in the family, your parents’ love will be evenly divided, and if you want to be recognized by your parents, you must be better than your brothers and sisters.

Therefore, a kind of thought that brothers and sisters hope that brothers and sisters will be poor gradually emerged.

If other brothers and sisters are poor, then they will have a higher position in the minds of their parents and will have a better reputation in front of other relatives.

Although this statement is a bit cruel, it is undeniable that there are many examples in reality.

Fortunately, Liu Qingshan has no brothers and sisters, otherwise, he would not know what he would have become.

The eldest and second uncles have many sons, and the brothers have to share the family's land and the love of their parents. In this way, there will be less things in everyone's hands. Not only the fields, but also the love of their parents.

So, although everyone is kind on the surface, in fact, who doesn’t want to be better, while other siblings are not as good as themselves?

Only in this way can you become the pride of your parents.

Liu Qingshan patted his uncle's back and comforted him, "Uncle, don't be sad, don't feel uncomfortable. I believe that my second cousin just doesn't do superficial skills. But if my third cousin encounters something difficult and really needs his help, he will definitely stand up. Is he the second cousin?"

Although brothers and sisters hope that brothers and sisters will be poor, it does not hinder the blood-thickness of the family affection between brothers and sisters.

This is a bit contradictory. However, it seems not contradictory.

Although I hope you are not as good as me and will not steal my limelight in front of my parents, no matter what, we are all brothers and sisters, and as long as you need it, I will still lend a helping hand.

This seems to make sense.

The second cousin looked at the old father with red eyes, hesitated for a moment, then nodded and said, "Yes, Qingshan is right. Dad, the third brother is supported by the government, and he can't starve to death without working, so he is too idle to death. He always runs to my house every day, and sits all day long, so my wife definitely doesn't welcome him. Because we all have to work and support our family. Unlike him, we can have food to sit at home."

"Then you won't tell him to come at a loss?" said my uncle, "You don't say a word to him. What's that?"

"We didn't say anything. You are favoring him like this now. If we openly say that we will not come, you will not be able to peel my skin." The second cousin said stutteringly, "Besides, the third brother is lame, not a lame brain. If we say something to him, he will go back and add fuel to you, how can we explain it?"

"Hey, just say it." said the second uncle, "Brother, too. It's not easy for the second family. You see, he is a grandfather at a young age. Not to mention raising a son and daughter, he also has to raise a grandson. He must work hard to make money. He doesn't have so much time to chat with the third brother. When you go back, you should talk about the third brother. If he has nothing to do, he will grow some vegetables. Don't always sit down at other people's house and stop leaving. That will only delay other people's work."

"Yes." The second aunt also spoke, "The third brother is lame, and everyone feels sorry for him and pity him. You are even more like this, but you can't favor him just because the third brother is pitiful, and you have to pity the eldest brother. This old man has suffered such a big blow before, but for life, he has to pretend that he has nothing to do and still live a life. The eldest daughter-in-law is filial, takes care of you, and takes care of the third brother. You can't take it for granted. Although their life is a little easier, they feel no less uncomfortable than the third brother. The second family is the same. The daughter is disobedient, and there are two young sons, and the young grandson. Now the couple has to raise four children. It is not easy for you to favor him just because the third brother is lame, so you have to let both brothers give in to him."

My second aunt said something very pertinently, and my uncle also reflected on it after hearing it.

Over the years, he has indeed favored the third brother more because of his leg disability.

Now when the second brother's wife talked about it, he really felt that his previous actions were a bit biased.

He sighed a long sigh and said, "If you think it's hard to raise four children, just tell me that I can dance lions now and can still pay money. Your elder brother doesn't need my money. The third brother is also supported by the government. If you are short of money, you can speak up. I can help you. I will definitely help you. Although I prefer the third brother a little, it is because the third brother is disabled. You are all good, you can make money, and you have all started a family. If I don't treat him better, he will look at you and think about himself, and he may feel so uncomfortable. So, don't say that I am biased, I'm just afraid that the third brother will give up on himself."

"Dad." The second cousin also said his heartfelt words when he heard his father's heart, "Don't worry, the third brother is my brother no matter what. As long as I have a bite of it, he will not lose his portion. When the children grow up, I will also let them be filial to their two uncles and uncles and will not ignore them."

My uncle's nose felt sore and tears came up again.

It is said that raising children to prevent old age. He has three sons, but only the second child has a descendant. Although the eldest brother has started a family, at the age of nearly forty, he may not have children in the future.

The third brother didn't even have a wife, so naturally he had no descendants. Fortunately, the second brother was successful and gave birth to three children. In this way, even if the eldest brother had no descendants, he could still count on a few nephews and nieces to support them.

Liu Qingshan suddenly remembered the second uncle Liu Erliang.

I don’t know if the reason why the second uncle has not split up with the uncle is because of this.

Because I have no wives and children, I put my hope of retirement on my nephews and nieces?

Although it is not impossible, I always feel that his situation is completely different from that of his three cousins.

The second cousin is the only one with children, but he is different from Liu Daliang, who is lazy. He is a very diligent person himself. Otherwise, he would not have been able to build a new house without raising a few children.

Of course, there must be the role of my uncle. However, if my second cousin does not work hard, it is impossible for me to live like this with my uncle's meager subsidies.

On the other hand, Liu Daliang was really a lazy man who was rare in the world. He also had three children, and he had more than 1,000 yuan subsidies from the government every month. But not only did he not make good use of the conveniences to make money, he also used more than 1,000 yuan of government subsidies every month to gamble or invite those friends to dinner.

This comparison is a clear judgment.

It's just a pity for uncle.
