Chapter 388: The last bit of filial piety

Daybreak.

The Li family, who were in charge, gathered a large group of people and marched towards the mourning hall in a mighty procession.

The leader is Boss Li.

Following him were Li’s relatives and friends.

"Do you think it's weird that my second brother died in the mourning hall?"

"My second brother usually takes good care of the family. He fills in for whatever my eldest brother lacks, and he always responds to our father's requests. It's just that when our father passed away this time, we didn't hold a happy funeral for him."

"But this funeral was so grand and dignified, it's unprecedented in the entire town. They even hired a funeral director to pray for our father and the Li family."

"Even if the mayor died, that's all there is to it, right? What else is Dad dissatisfied with?" The fourth daughter of the Li family muttered.

"According to the rules, our father is not old enough to be buried happily. We can't just..."

"Yes, our father would not do such a thing. He is still counting on the eldest, second and third sons to carry on the family line and bring glory to the Li family!" The third daughter of the Li family folded her hands and spoke in a sarcastic and weird tone.

The oldest person in this family is Mr. Li who has passed away.

The ones who came over were his three sons.

Then there are the grandchildren.

They are all a bunch of money-losing goods, who will be married off to other families sooner or later, like spilled water.

Therefore, in this family, they all have to live their lives according to the wishes of their elders and other male members.

The next ones to come were the daughters-in-law who married in. Mr. Li always believed that although the daughters-in-law who married in gave birth to his grandchildren, they were also outsiders.

But the second son's wife doesn't come back often.

The eldest son’s wife suffered from severe bleeding after giving birth to her third child and could not be saved.

The third brother, who is idle and doesn't work, has dated several people but failed to get any success. However, he has never been in a hurry. He thinks that when he has had enough fun, he can just spend money to buy someone. Anyway, his father will see to it that he is single.

Even if his father passed away, doesn't he still have an older brother?

The eldest brother is like a father, all are the same.

As daughters who are good at reading people's expressions, they certainly know these people's personalities and thoughts.

The eldest daughter of the Li family had a gloomy face, lowered her head and said nothing.

As a married woman, she had no say in this matter. Moreover, her husband's family was very unhappy with her going home to attend the funeral and asked her to finish the matter as soon as possible and go home.

There are two children at home who need her to take care of.

The second daughter of the Li family held her arm and walked beside her, her eyes filled with numbness after the sorrow.

Her life wasn't much better.

But the death of Mr. Li finally allowed her to breathe a sigh of relief, as if a mountain that had been pressing on her back for years had been removed.

She couldn't be happy when she thought about her life in her husband's family. She could empathize with her elder sister who had the same experience as her.

Boss Li said sullenly, "I told you I saw it with my own eyes, but you didn't dare to go and confirm it."

"How can we women just enter the mourning hall?" The third daughter said in a sarcastic tone.

In fact, if she wasn't afraid of being scolded by the people in the town, she wouldn't even want to go back.

In the Li family, if the most promising one is Li Lao Er, then the second most promising one is the third daughter who ranks fifth.

The ranking of the Li family is calculated separately for boys and girls. If we look at the time of birth, the third daughter ranks fifth, Li Laosan ranks sixth, and the fourth daughter is the youngest in the family and ranks seventh.

She was very hardworking and had the courage to go out to work at that time. Now she is considered a worker with a stable job.

Although Mr. Li still looked down on her at home, he did not marry her off to someone else early because she brought a salary to the family.

After all, once she got married, her money belonged to her husband's family, and she could not take the money back to her parents' home. If Mr. Li did that, everyone in the town would gossip about him.

Old man Li is very concerned about his reputation, so of course he wouldn't do that.

The fourth daughter was born at a good time.

She was the youngest in the family, with older brothers and sisters to support her. With the care of her third sister, she did not suffer much.

Boss Li frowned and glared at his third daughter: "What? After our dad passed away, no one will be able to take care of you?"

The third daughter put her hands on her hips. Years of hard work and good food kept her in good shape, no less impressive than the eldest brother, Li. "Manage? Why don't you try? Boss, I'm not saying anything bad about you, but Dad is gone, and you know how he treated us all these years."

"I'm willing to come here, which is my last bit of filial piety. Do you still want to control us like Dad did? I tell you, that's impossible. I won't bring my wages home next month. I want to save it for my fourth sister's schooling."

"She's a girl, why would she go to school? With this money, buy your nephew some new clothes!"

"It's my own money, I can spend it however I like. Doesn't Dad always hope that someone will bring honor to the family? If my fourth sister goes to school and becomes a university student, wouldn't that be a great honor for our ancestors?"

"You." Boss Li couldn't argue with her and raised his hand.

The sight of Old Man Li disciplining his wife and daughter, and occasionally beating his son, has been subtly ingrained in my mind since I was a child.

When he gets extremely angry, he also likes to hit people.

The third daughter stared at him with a cold face, not hiding, just to see if he dared to fight.

Boss Li raised his hand for a long time, and finally slowly put it down.

The third daughter and her friends did not see Li Laoer's body and did not believe that he was dead.

But he saw it clearly.

Now that Li Laoer, the money bag that has always supported him, is dead, he certainly cannot afford to offend his third daughter, who is the second most promising and earning one.

Seeing Boss Li put down his hand, the four daughters all showed a look of surprise.

"Oh, what's the wind blowing today? It's changed so much?" The third daughter was not afraid at all and kept mocking Boss Li.

The person who had been oppressing her finally died.

She now has a job and an income, so even if she is kicked out, she can still live in the factory.

She had the courage to resist.

Boss Li's face turned red with anger, but he still didn't raise his hand to hit her again.

Seeing him behave like this.

The third daughter frowned. Seeing such abnormal behavior, she didn't believe that Boss Li had suddenly changed his nature. If she believed that Boss Li had suddenly become a good person, she might as well believe that gold suddenly fell from the sky.

Could it be that what Boss Li said was true?

Is second brother really dead?

Because she was dissatisfied with Mr. Li, and this town, which caused her tragic fate as a child, also had a bad reputation, she never liked to communicate with the people in the town.

Even though she came to attend the funeral, she never showed up. She just planned to wait for the banquet to start, have a big meal and then leave immediately.
