Siheyuan: Fighting against Japanese Aggression in Beijing

Chapter 179 Li Renyi with a Cane

After a while, Li Renyi came to the door with a nervous mood. He saw Li Kangri from a distance and hurriedly went to greet him, "Kangri, where are your grandparents?"

"Haha, you are blind! Isn't that right?" Li Kangri said, pointing at Li Yaozu and his wife in the distance.

"Ah?" Li Renyi cried out, raised his head and looked over. He found his father and mother in the darkness. Although it was dark, he would never forget the familiar outline. For a moment, his eyes were filled with tears.

"Hey, why are you still crying? Go and see someone quickly!" Li Kangri urged.

"Oh, no, the strong wind made me blind." Li Renyi said stubbornly.

As he said this, he hurried to the door and came in front of Li Yaozu and his wife. Li Renyi said with tears on his face, "Dad, Mom, why don't you come in now? Come with me into the house quickly, it's a bit cold outside." As he said this, he was about to support his mother.

"Damn it, kneel down in front of me!" Li Yaozu roared.

"Ah?" Li Renyi shouted.

"Didn't you hear me? You damn Chen Shimei, kneel down for me, kneel down for me, did you hear me? Kneel down for me." Li Yaozu roared.

"This..." Li Renyi looked around and when he saw Xu Damao, Xu Damao immediately turned around and pretended not to see it.

"Dad, can we go inside and talk? I'll let you beat and scold me if you want, but outside..." Li Renyi said with a bitter face.

"Damn it, now that you've become a high-ranking official you don't even recognize me? Fine, fine, fine, if you don't recognize me at all, I'll just pretend that I never gave birth to you and treat you as if you're dead." Having said that, Li Yaozu turned around and was about to leave.

"Hey, Dad, Dad, wait a minute, I kneel, is it okay for me to kneel?"

With a "plop" sound, Li Renyi knelt straight in front of Li Yaozu.

"So you still recognize me as your father, right?" Li Yaozu said.

"Dad, what are you saying? How can a son not recognize his father? Then am I still a human being?" Li Renyi cried.

"Then tell me. I won't talk about the war, because we were defending our country. Why didn't you come to see me now that you were settled? Why? Do you know how many times your mother cried because of missing you? Do you know how many people at home miss you?" Li Yaozu asked.

"Dad, it's my fault. Mom, I'm sorry. I'm an unfilial son. I kowtow to you."

As he said this, Li Renyi knelt on the ground and kowtowed.

"Humph, why don't you come? Didn't you tell me that you were busy looking for a wife? Wasn't it? Wasn't it?" Li Yaozu scolded, "Shuixiang is such a good daughter-in-law! You fought in the war, and she helped you support us, taking care of us and your two children. You heartless man, Chen Shimei, are you worthy of her? If it weren't for Shuixiang, we would have died long ago."

"Dad, I'm sorry, I was sorry to her. Dad, I was wrong. Can you come home with me first?" Li Renyi shouted.

"Haha, what's wrong? Are you afraid of being embarrassed? Afraid of being seen by others? A man dares to do it but not to take responsibility for it? It's so embarrassing. I will beat you to death." Li Yaozu roared.

As he said that, Li Yaozu raised his crutch and started hitting, but he didn't hit the head. Instead, he hit the back hard. He did this to show Li Kangri. He knew that although his daughter-in-law didn't say anything, she was still waiting for his attitude.

Li Renyi knelt on the ground, silently accepting the love from his father, and he didn't feel any pain at all, because when he saw his old parents again, they were no longer the same as before. Their backs were almost bent, especially his mother, who looked so old. At this moment, he felt better with the help of a cane.

"Oh, old man, stop knocking. You're going to knock your son to death." Grandma Li couldn't bear it any longer and cried while protecting Li Renyi.

Even if her son is not a human being, no matter how stupid he is, he is still her son.

"Mom, you asked dad to hit me, and I will feel better after you hit me. It is your son who is sorry for you, and it is your son who is sorry for Shuixiang. It is your son who is wrong." Li Renyi cried.

"My son! Mother misses you, mother misses you. Mother is afraid that I will never see you again in this life. You ungrateful boy, why don't you come to see mother, wuwuwuwu!" Grandma Li hugged Li Renyi and started crying.

"Mom, it's all my fault. I'm sorry, your son!" Li Renyi also burst into tears.

Just as the mother and son were hugging each other and crying, the two guards beside them seemed to be infected and also wiped away their tears.

Although Xu Damao did not cry, he was also sighing beside him. He thought to himself, "Hehe, now I know. It turns out that Master's story is so sad and beautiful. This is the story of Chen Shimei and Qin Xianglian!"

"Grandpa, forget it. Why don't you come in and sit down?" Li Kangri shouted. He knew that his grandfather was angry and wanted to vent his anger. He also knew that this was his grandfather's explanation to his mother. Apart from that, he really didn't know how to explain to his mother. He couldn't force Li Renyi to divorce his wife and rekindle his relationship with his mother, right?

Hearing Li Kangri's words, Li Renyi said, "Mom, can we talk inside? Come in and see how many grandchildren you have!"

"This..." Grandma Li looked at her husband. Her husband has always been the one who has the final say at home, especially on major matters. No matter right or wrong, she can only obey his orders.

After hearing what Grandma Li said, Li Yaozu said nothing and just stood there angrily.

"Kangri, please talk to your grandfather. It's cold outside, don't catch a cold again." Li Renyi asked for help.

Seeing Li Renyi's pitiful look, Li Kangri said, "Grandpa, forget it, let's go in and sit down. My legs are a little weak from standing. Do you think it's okay?"

"Hmph, if my grandson hadn't spoken for you, I would have made you kneel here and die today. Damn it, get up! Lead the way, I'll go and see your landlord's compound too." Li Yaozu said.

"Hey! Dad, please come on, Mom, I'll carry you on my back, you have small feet."

As he said that, Li Renyi knelt on the ground, asked his mother to climb onto his back, and then he carried her all the way home.

After entering the house, Li Renyi saw that his wife and children were already standing in the house neatly, so he said, "Reinforcements, why don't you take your brothers and sisters to call grandpa? Xiao Zhou, go make tea for our dad."
