Chapter 197 So Good
For example, one can call one's own children stupid and worthless, but if others call them like that, then it is absolutely impossible.

Li Lang used this mentality to guide Poor Hou's thoughts.

"No, Poor Hou, I'm thinking of you."

"Your daughter's man didn't fix his broken leg. Now he has to break the bone and reattach it. I just saw that the flesh on his leg is rotten."

"It will cost a lot of money to treat his leg? Besides, maybe there will be some other problem in the future, and it will not be easy to walk."

"Think about it, if he can't walk in the future, sister Hou must take care of him, right? In that case, the lives of both of them will become a problem."

"If you recognize this daughter, then you have to take care of them. So you just said that you don't recognize this daughter, I absolutely agree, it's wise to protect yourself."

Broken Hou's face was ugly, he slapped his chopsticks on the table hard, and said, "Is that a human language? Get out."

Li Lang's trick succeeded, and he wasn't angry at all because of Poor Hou's attitude. He just shook his head, sighed, and walked out.

He just walked to the door...

"Come back." Poor Hou suddenly stopped him.

"Hey, use the aggressive method on me? You almost hit your boy." Poor Hou finally came to his senses.

Li Lang smiled, walked back and sat down again: "Poor Hou, I know you are very wronged."

"There is an old saying that is good, don't let others suffer, don't persuade others to be kind. I don't want to persuade you to be magnanimous, but I just want to ask you a question."

"The relationship between you and Sister Hou has become like this, are you happy now?"

"Heh." Poor Hou smiled helplessly, and took a sip of the wine in his glass.

He didn't need to speak, Li Lang could see the pain in his heart.

Li Lang: "Life is short for a hundred years, why bother yourself?"

"Or you can try to let go of the past and forgive Sister Hou. See if you can live a happier life by doing this?"

"If you are even more unhappy, then you will return to the previous state, and it will be over? There will be no loss. Are you right?"

Broken Hou was silent.

Li Lang said everything that should be said.As for what to do with the broken man, he didn't want to interfere too much.

"It's getting late, let's go."

After Li Lang left, Poorhou drank another glass of wine and muttered to himself: "If you are a member of Zhengyangmen, you have to do things under Zhengyangmen."

"Money can't buy family affection, right and wrong."

"Li Lang, at my age, I don't understand life like you do."

He suddenly slapped his thigh: "Oh, I forgot to give money to that kid." The next day, Li Lang went to the hospital early to find Hou Su'e.

Walking into the ward, he saw Hou Su'e was helping her man wipe his body, so he whispered, "Sister Hou, I bought you two fried dough sticks and porridge."

"Thank you, Li Lang. Why are you here so early?"

"Don't be polite to me, your father and I are old friends."

He and Poor Hou only met a few times in total, so he used the term Wangnianjiao.

"There's nothing wrong here, I'm busy, you don't have to come here on purpose."

"It's okay, I'm just here to take a look. If you need my help, just tell me. Brother Liu, is he better?"

"It's much better, the high fever has subsided."

"Is it convenient to come to the door and say a few words?"

"it is good."

Li Lang came here today to talk to Hou Su'e about her and her father.

Last night, after he said that to Potty Hou, he was [-]% sure that Potty Hou would choose to forgive Hou Su'e on his own initiative.

But he wanted to do things better, and persuaded Hou Su'e to apologize to Poor Hou.

In that way, Zattered Hou's mood will be more comfortable, and the knot in his heart will be untied better and faster.

"Li Lang, what's the matter?"

"Sister Hou, I know everything about you and your father. What I want to say is that those things in the past are all old calendars. Let go of what should be let go."

"Your dad also meant the same thing. No, he also paid for Brother Liu's hospitalization this time. But you also know that your dad's personality... right."

"Let me say something extra. Your dad has had a hard time over the years. He is getting old now, and it won't be a problem if he doesn't have someone to take care of him in the future."

"In the past, no matter who is right or who is wrong, don't settle accounts anymore. Your father, after all, is the father who gave birth to you and raised you."

"I want you to apologize to him sincerely. What do you think?"

Hou Su'e lowered her head, fiddling with her fingers.

After a while, she raised her head with red eyes: "Succeed. Li Lang, wait for my man to finish the injection. If nothing else, I will go there in the afternoon."

Li Lang smiled: "Okay. If you need my help, just ask."

"No need. Thank you, Li Lang. If you have something to do, go there."

"Okay. See you later."

After the task was completed, Li Lang left the hospital with ease.

……

In the afternoon, Zattered Hou, who was sitting at home drinking tea with a purple clay pot, saw his daughter Hou Su'e coming.

The two looked at each other without speaking, and the atmosphere fell into a rigidity.

then……

"dad……"

"you……"

The two spoke at the same time and stopped at the same time.

"Dad, I came here to apologize to you."

In the end, it was the daughter who took the initiative.

"You have worked so hard over the years. I want to tell you, I'm sorry."

Broken Hou put down the purple clay pot in his hand, and wiped his face with trembling hands.Tears still flowed down.

"woo woo woo woo……"

Broken Hou cried.

"Dad, why are you crying? Stop crying."

Hou Su'e was at a loss and persuaded her father not to cry, but she couldn't help it and cried too.

Finally, the two father and daughter hugged each other and burst into tears.

Their tears were tears of guilt and tears of joy.

The father and daughter, who became enemies many years ago, are reunited today.

……

Hou Su'e has to go to the hospital to take care of her man, so she can't stay in the shabby Hou's house for too long.

Before she left, Poor Hou gave her 1000 yuan.

She was intimidated.Unexpectedly, his father, who picks up junk, is so rich.

1000 yuan, the salary of an ordinary worker for two or three years.

……

After Hou Su'e left, Broken Hou took out the sticker box with Qianlong's inscription, put 250 yuan in it, wrapped it carefully, and strode out of the house with the sticker box.

He came to the gate of the courtyard house where Li Lang lived and knocked on the door.

"Come on." Li Lang's mother answered from inside the room, and quickly opened the door.

"Hello, is Li Lang at home?"

Li Lang's mother looked at the little old man in rags and said, "Not here, I went out early in the morning."

Although the tattered Hou was wearing ragged and dirty clothes, he said calmly, "Excuse me, wait for Li Lang to come back later, and you will give this to him."

When it was broken, he handed over the sticker box wrapped in rags.

Looking at the dirty rags, Li Lang's mother hesitated for a moment, but didn't reach out immediately, and asked a little vigilantly, "What is this?"

"If you give it to him, he will know."

Li Lang's mother took the box.

Poor Hou thanked him and left without looking back.

Li Lang's mother took the things into the house with a little disgust, and put them on the ground.

If she knew that this thing he threw on the ground would be worth tens of millions in 30 or [-] years, what would she think?

……

After the tattered Hou handed over the sticker box to Li Lang's mother, he felt that his steps were much easier than before.

He was walking down the street and looked up to see a flock of pigeons flying by.

A white cloud floats in the sky, dotted with the blue sky.

Today is a beautiful sunny day.When Li Lang got home, his mother told him that a junk collector brought him something and threw it under the table.

Li Lang picked up the thing wrapped in rags, looked at the size, and thought to himself that it should be a sticker box handwritten by Qianlong sent by the ragged hou.

He prayed in his heart that he must not be broken.

Opened it up and it was fine, intact.

This sticker box, in the 21st century, does not have tens of millions, and it is impossible to buy it.Even if you bid tens of millions, you may not be able to buy it.

This is a genuine rare cultural relic that is hard to find.

However, Li Lang didn't care how much the sticker box was worth.

What he told Poor Hou at the beginning was that he borrowed this sticky box to play with for a few days, and then he had to return it to Poor Hou.

Li Lang put the money in the box away, and after admiring the box, he received the system space and told his mother that he would not be at home for dinner.

He went out and bought two bottles of good wine and some appetizers, and walked to the broken Hou's house.

The gate of the dilapidated Hou's house where many rare and antiques were kept was open, and Li Lang walked in directly.

"Broken Hou, here I come."

Seeing Li Lang, Poor Hou chuckled.

"You boy, come to my place to drink again?"

"Look at what you said, didn't I just buy two bottles of wine?" Li Lang shook the wine in his hand.

"I'm eating, it's just right, come and eat and drink together."

Seeing the smile on Poor Hou's face, Li Lang guessed that Sister Hou should have been here, and the two had reconciled.

"Look at your red face, is there something good?"

Poor Hou put away his smile, looked at Li Lang, and his expression became solemn: "Boy, in my life, Poor Hou, I have never said thank you to a junior. Today, I am here to say thank you."

Li Lang waved his hands quickly: "Don't, don't. I can't afford it."

"You deserve it. My daughter came to apologize to me. With her character, she can take the initiative to apologize to me. You asked her to come here, right?"

"It doesn't matter whether I called it or not. You and Sister Hou reconcile, that's the big deal. Come, touch one, and celebrate for you and Sister Hou."

After drinking a glass of wine, Li Lang got straight to the point: "I received the sticker box you sent to my house, and I came here specially to thank you. I'll give it to my master to play with for a few days, and then I'll send it back to you."

Broken Hou waved his hand casually but firmly: "No, it's yours."

"No, that sticker box is a treasure. Is that why you gave it to me?"

"Don't talk nonsense, I have never asked for the things I sent out from the tattered house. If you talk about this again, get out of here."

Li Lang was very moved by the wasteful Hou spending a lot of money on gifts.

……

After coming out of Dirty Hou's house, Li Lang bought another bottle of wine and came to Mr. Guan's house.

"Grandpa, Admiral of the Nine Gates, I'll show you something good."

Li Lang held the sticker box in both hands and carefully placed it on the table.

"If you have good things, don't forget your grandpa, grandson, that's right."

Mr. Guan picked up the sticker box, said "yellow", and opened it carefully.

The words in the box were relatively small, and he couldn't read them clearly, so he raised his head and saw that Li Lang had handed over the magnifying glass.

He read while watching: "Who is the same as the love of the lotus. The love of the peony is suitable for everyone. Yu only loves out of the mud without being stained. Changchun Layman. This is written by Lord Qianlong."

Mr. Guan raised his head excitedly: "Teacher, where did you get this?"

"A gift from a friend."

"Hey, your friend is so generous. This is a good thing."

"You like it?"

"like."

"That's for you."

"Good grandson. Leave the sticker box here, and you can take it away in a month."

For some reason, Mr. Guan didn't intend to ask Li Lang to give him an antique this time.

"I saw you want to snatch the good things I received before, but you don't want to give them away this time?"

"Don't talk nonsense. Don't bother me... The word Qianlong Lord is beautiful."

Li Lang knew that his master was obsessed with all kinds of cultural relics, and when he saw his beloved old objects, he would be addicted to them.

He didn't bother the old man.Seeing that the old man was so happy, he smiled and left.

……

In 1977, a major event occurred in China—the resumption of the college entrance examination.

The news was officially announced on October 10.

On October 10, Cheng Qianli's father heard the news and told Cheng Qianli immediately.

"Qianli, I'm worried that your junior high school education will not pass the exam."

"It's okay. I'm free at work. I read those high school textbooks when I have nothing to do."

"Then I'm relieved. If you pass the exam, you will be a national cadre. You must take care of yourself."

"Dad, give Li Lang the quota for the hardware company you mentioned two days ago."

"Hey, didn't you two break up?"

"Don't worry about it. Forget it, I'll go and talk to him."

Knowing son Moruo father.

Cheng Qianli's father looked at his son's back and shook his head slightly: "This kid must be afraid that Li Lang will be admitted to college."

Cheng Qianli came to the front yard, just in time to see Li Lang pushing his bicycle out of the yard.

He ran up immediately.

"Li Lang, wait, I have something to tell you."

As soon as Li Lang saw him, he smiled and said, "What's the matter, do you still want to fight?"

Cheng Qianli showed a fake angry expression: "Li Lang, we have been buddies since we were young. It is normal for brothers to have some conflicts. Why are you so narrow-minded."

Li Lang was too lazy to talk nonsense with him, and pushed the cart forward.

Cheng Qianli followed and said, "I'm not here to apologize to you. My dad got another job in a hardware company. This is a dream job for many people. If you want to transfer in..."

"Fuck off."

Li Lang got on his bicycle and was about to leave.

Cheng Qianli pulled the car: "Li Lang, what I just said was the quota of the hardware company."

Li Lang looked at him, and said word by word: "Let go, hand. Get lost, bastard."

"Don't think I don't know what you're thinking. I will sign up for the college entrance examination."

Under Li Lang's dangerous gaze, Cheng Qianli's heart trembled, and he let go of the hand holding the car like an electric shock.

Seeing Li Lang's disappearing figure, Cheng Qianli's face darkened.

"He also knows the news? This time, I will definitely not let him overwhelm me again."

Back in the backyard, Cheng Qianli told Wang Qiang that the college entrance examination was about to resume.

He thought Wang Qiang would be shocked and admired by the blockbuster, so he lied to Wang Qiang that he would not sign up.

As a result, as soon as Wang Qiang left, he immediately rode his bicycle to buy high school textbooks.

After Wang Qiang heard the news of the resumption of the college entrance examination, she thought about it for a long time, and finally decided to talk to Li Lang.
