At that time, Shen Erhu didn't know how big a hole he had dug for himself by showing off his courage.

He only knew that after he said that he would fulfill his filial piety for the next year, the surroundings were suddenly filled with a relaxed and happy atmosphere.

Even Mrs. Cai, who had always been sarcastic towards him, looked at him with a much kinder look.

Although he didn't know what was going on, at least in Shen Erhu's opinion, such kindness was not a bad thing for him.

After all, he will have to turn around and live in the village. If he is not wanted to see him at home or outside, life will be difficult.

Shen Erhu's optimism lasted until night.

When he was chatting with the old man attentively and wanted to make a conversation to see how much inheritance the old man had, the old man who was originally telling him to leave with his beard and eyes suddenly changed the subject.

Ask him who he is.

Shen Erhu was stunned for a moment, and then thought that the old man was so angry that he started pretending not to recognize his son.

Feeling helpless, I had to deliberately act obediently and obey the old man's words, not exposing the old man's "pretending to be stupid", and patiently repeating over and over again that I was the most filial second son of the old man.

It's like brainwashing.

The more he said it, the more he would believe it himself.

The consequence of this kind of 'brainwashing' was that Old Shen couldn't sleep that night.

Looking for his 'most filial' second son over and over again.

No matter how long Shen Erhu's reflex arc was, it was impossible for him not to notice something was wrong after being tortured like this by his own father for a whole night.

then.

The next morning.

Shen Dahai just had a solid sleep.

When he woke up... he saw his enemy, the second brother, sitting by the kang, with two big black circles over his eyes, looking at him with a resentful look.

Shen Dahai's first reaction was to kick him without even thinking.

Shen Erhu was unprepared and was kicked three meters away: "Brother, what are you doing?!"

Shen Dahai: "What am I doing? I think you're burying me!"

Shen Erhu didn't know how long it would take to eat outside. Who knew if there were fleas on his body?

I didn't even take a shower when I came back yesterday, so today I just sat on his bed like this. I don't know how long I sat there.

Shen Dahai felt itchy all over just thinking about it.

Don't say you don't dislike him as a biological brother, he will dislike him to death!

Shen Er couldn't help but said: "Brother, I came to see you early in the morning to tell you about dad's business. It's business. You're following me everywhere and you think you're having sex with me."

After being kicked like this, he didn't dare to sit on the kang anymore. He stayed on the edge of the kang. Shen Erhu asked, "There's something wrong with dad. I don't know if you noticed it, brother."

"Something's wrong?" Shen Dahai wiped his face and regained consciousness but didn't pretend to be stupid, "Are you talking about dad sometimes not recognizing people?"

"Brother, do you know?!"

Waving his hand, Shen Dahai didn't take it seriously: "I know, it's not a big deal. Xu Baozeng said it's because he is old and in a bad mood."

"The accidents that happened one after another at home made the old man too stimulated and couldn't bear it, so his mind got a little messed up."

Shen Dahai remembered that this was how Xu Baozeng explained it to him at that time.

After hearing this, he thought it made sense. There were people in the village who were overstimulated and went crazy before. The old man was under control and not crazy, but his brain was somewhat confused by the stimulation.

Not corrected.

This guy is so 'brittle' sometimes.

Shen Erhu opened his mouth wide as if listening to heavenly scriptures.

"No, brother, what happened to dad? When we separated, it was fine for dad to be so stimulated. Why am I still confused when I'm not at home?"

Shen Dahai didn't like hearing what he said.

Shen Dahai stared: "Boss, what do you mean? Are you blaming me for not taking good care of dad?"

Shen Erhu has no confidence at home now, how dare he admit that he blames Shen Dahai.

"No, brother, I'm just wondering how dad could be so stimulated. Is the fourth child making trouble with dad?"

He would think that Shen Dahai sneered, and it was Shen Erhu who was laughing.

But this laughter with unknown meaning sounded to Shen Erhu's ears as Shen Dahai's confirmation of his guess.

Shen Erhu: "The fourth child's family is living so well now, why are you still having trouble with the old man?"

"The old man just keeps being sorry for Shen Jiang, who is his biological father after all. He still claims to be humane and righteous, but in the end he is so benevolent and righteous that he won't stop until he forces his own father to death?"

With that said, he turned around and was about to go out.

Shen Dahai raised his eyebrows: "What are you doing?"

Shen Erhu: "I'm going to find the branch secretary. I don't believe that something like this happened to our family. My son was forced to do this by his own father. No one in the village can make decisions for our father!"

"It's true that Shen Jiang is the captain, but that doesn't mean he has the final say in the village!"

Shen Dahai: "Stop!"

Shen Erhu: "Brother, please don't stop me. I know you are too timid to mess with the fourth room. I am different. My wife and I are barefoot and not afraid of wearing shoes."

"I just had a fight with him, Shen Jianggang, today. He made the old man so angry that he must be held responsible! He didn't run away!"

Shen Dahai was very annoyed: "I told you to stop! The old man's matter has nothing to do with Jiangzi. To put it bluntly, it was just for us brothers to stimulate."

When Shen Erhu heard this, he stopped in his tracks.

Looking back, he looked in disbelief.

"Brother, you're not so afraid of Si Fang now, are you? Are you taking the blame for everything?"

Instead of answering the question, Shen Dahai asked Shen Erhu a question.

"Second brother, have you seen my baby since you came back?"

Shen Erhu: "Recruiting Di?"

"It's not Zhaodi. Besides Zhaodi, have you seen any other children in my family?"

Not understanding why Shen Dahai asked this, Shen Erhu thought about it carefully. Not to mention, since he came back yesterday to now, he has never seen any other children in his eldest brother's house.

Thinking that his bastard second son had gotten married, Shen Erhu suddenly understood: "Have Hua'er and the others married?"

"Look at me, my second uncle, how much my family has changed after just being out for a while."

"I used to think that all the girls and boys in your family were just babies, but in the blink of an eye they all got married and started a business."

"But brother, why are you mentioning this to me? To distract me from making trouble with the old party secretary?"

Shen Dahai looked at the back mountain through the window with complicated eyes, and said vicissitudes: "Your nephews and nieces are married, but now they are in the back mountain."

In the back mountain?

Shen Erhu couldn't react at all: "What are you doing in the back mountain? Have you built a house in the back mountain?"

Shen Dahai: "Their graves are in the back mountain."

He had a very calm tone, and only by listening carefully could you tell that his voice was trembling when he said this.

Shen Erhu was stunned: "Brother, what did you say?"

Shen Dahai closed his eyes: "I said, your nephews and niece are all gone. Youyu, flowers, and grass are all gone. They are buried in the back mountain now."

"In the past, you abandoned your wife and children and eloped with the widow. Later, my family was ruined and our children died one after another. Do you think this is exciting?"

"As the helmsman of the family, the old man sees that our ship cannot steer no matter how hard he steers it, and it falls apart. Do you think he can't get angry?"

Taking a deep breath and exhaling for a long time, Shen Dahai felt that his depressed mood felt a little better.

He smiled bitterly at Shen Erhu: "So Erhu, the reason why our father has this confused disease is, in Xu Baozeng's words, dementia. It really has nothing to do with Lao Si and his family."

"In the final analysis, he is angry at the messy life we ​​two brothers have had."

Shen Erhu felt chills all over. At this moment, when he learned that the child he had watched grow up was gone in the blink of an eye.

He couldn't even open his mouth to ask how they died.

I dare not ask why such a young child is missing.

He is a very cold person, otherwise he would not be forced to leave his own son in a foreign country.

But no matter how cool he was, he was still a human being. After hearing such bad news, he couldn't help but have red eyes.

Shen Dahai looked at him for a while and said it would be a lie to say that he was not touched. Even when he learned that the old man was 'dead', Shen Erhu was only thinking about his inheritance.

But after hearing that his three children were gone, Shen Erhu still had red eyes.

This is a rare distraction for Shen Erhu.

However, Shen Dahai has no mercy after all. If he doesn't return to the city, he will lose his job. Compared with the job that will affect the rest of his family's life, this little touch... is nothing.

It was impossible for him to be soft-hearted and stop letting Shen Erhu take care of the old man just because of this momentary touch, so he still had to make it clear...
