Farming and raising cubs: the vicious female supporting role is fought over by the whole family to b

But Li Youkang didn't look panicked at all.

When Li Mumu left Anping Town with the Gu family, Li Youkang stayed.

When Li Youkang sent Li Mumu away, Li Mumu reminded him that Li's father and mother would not let it go.

When Li Mumu was there, Li's father and mother did not dare to continue because of the threat of seeing an official.

But Li Mumu left, and Li Youkang was bullied by the Li family for many years.

He was used to being bullied silently, and Li's father and mother were also used to exploiting Li Youkang, and they always succeeded in doing so. Li Youkang never resisted.

Therefore, Li Mumu was worried that after she left, Li's father and mother would immediately go to trouble Li Youkang as soon as they heard about Li Mumu's departure.

So Li Mumu reminded Li Youkang that if Li's father and Li's mother went, he could give them two choices, or go to see the officials.

Gu's snacks are not Li Youkang's, Li's father and Li's mother don't want them.

Moreover, Li Youkang had always given money to Father Li and Mother Li before, so it cannot be said that he was unfilial to his parents.

The second option is to give them one tael of silver per month.

Li Youkang became the shopkeeper and earned more. A few taels of silver would make Li's father and mother very happy, but it would not have any impact on Li Youkang.

If Father Li and Mother Li agree, then every time Li Youkang gives money to Father Li and Mother Li, it must be recorded in the book.

And they had to press their fingerprints every time before they could take away the money.

This is evidence that Li Youkang worked hard outside to provide for his family.

Therefore, now that Li Youkang had the evidence in hand, he was not panicked at all, and said: "The crime of unfilial piety is very serious in Daxi. I can be jailed."

Li's father and Li's mother thought that Li Youkang was afraid, and immediately became proud.

Li Youkang continued: "Why don't your parents file a lawsuit directly with the Yamen?"

"Let the magistrate judge." Li Youkang cupped his hands aside, "I have a clear conscience and am not afraid of confrontation at the Yamen."

Seeing Li Youkang's tough attitude, everyone couldn't help but change their minds.

Li Youkang's behavior didn't seem like he had a problem.

Li Youkang then said to the onlookers: "If you are free, you can also go to the Yamen to have a look. Then you will know whether I am good or bad."

"As the shopkeeper of Gu's Snacks, I must not let customers stop patronizing Gu's Snacks because of my character." Li Youkang said, "I dare not say that Li's character is excellent, but I also dare not say that it is flawed."

After saying that, Li Youkang said to Father Li and Mother Li: "Father, mother, let's go, let's go to the Yamen together."

"Yamen? What are we going to do in the yamen?" Mother Li was immediately afraid when she heard that she was going to the yamen.

She came here to ask for money, not to meet an official.

Li Youkang said: "Of course I will accuse my son of being unfilial."

"Unfilial piety is a serious crime. Once accomplished, the son's life will be ruined." Li Youkang said, "Isn't it in line with what parents want? Let's go."

When everyone took a look, it was actually Father Li and Mother Li who had retreated and did not dare to go to the county government office.

Li Youkang, however, looked like he had a clear conscience and was completely unafraid to go to the Yamen to see the officials and explain the matter clearly.

Li Youkang smiled and said, "What? Are my parents afraid? Are they afraid to go to the county government office because they know they are wrongly accusing me?"

"Yes! Since you said that Shopkeeper Li is unfilial, it is even more important that he go to the Yamen." said the onlookers.

"I...we can't bear to have him go to jail!" Mother Li argued, "No matter how unfilial he is to us, he is still my biological son. He is sorry for us, but we don't want to harm him!"

Li Youkang sighed loudly, "But the commotion you made in front of the store has completely ruined my reputation, and may even cost me my job. If the commotion gets bigger, you don't need to go to the Yamen, the county magistrate will directly Someone has been sent to arrest me.”

"Doesn't this make it hard for me to defend myself?" Li Youkang said, "Why don't we go directly to the Yamen and make it clear so that no one will misunderstand us."

"Yes! What Shopkeeper Li said makes sense!"

"If you really cared about your son, you wouldn't make such a big fuss here. Isn't this just to publicize Shopkeeper Li's mistakes?"

"Looking at your attitude, could it be that you are here to wrongly accuse Shopkeeper Li?"

"There are many people who go out to do business and have been unable to return home for many years, all in order to make their families' lives better. Shopkeeper Li can't come home, so you can't blame him! Didn't he give you money?"

"Of course I gave it," Li Youkang said, "I give my family one tael of silver every month."

"I now have five taels of monthly silver, of which three taels are used to rent a small courtyard for one person in Chong'an. I give one tael to my family, and the remaining one tael is for my daily expenses."

"My family is in Yongning Village, located on the border, and is not wealthy. With just one tael of silver, we are already a very wealthy family," Li Youkang said.

"Not to mention in your hometown, even in Chong'an, one tael of silver is a huge amount of income for a family."

Li Youkang cupped his hands and said, "So my parents say I am unfilial, and I would never dare to respond."

"The Li Mumu my parents mentioned just now is my sister." Li Youkang said, "It's just that she has already married into the Gu family. There is absolutely no reason to send money to her parents' family. Otherwise, how will she get along with her parents' family?"

"Kang, my sister is not the boss of this store." Li Youkang said, "The real boss is the eldest son of the Gu family."

It was Gu Shangyong and Gu Shangwei who came to negotiate the rent, and it was Gu Shangyong who signed the contract.

Li Mumu then said that Gu Shangyong was said to be the boss.

Li Youkang really didn't expect that Li Mumu would think so far ahead.

I wonder if she had expected that Father Li and Mother Li would come to make trouble, so she made such a plan.

Li Youkang decided to ask Li Mumu when he had time.

"Since the eldest son of the Gu family is the boss, my sister has no reason to give the Gu family's property to her mother's family." Li Youkang said, "It's just that my sister saw that my life was difficult at home, so she wanted to give me a hand and let me work in the restaurant."

"It's because the Gu family is kind and they never mind. If I were working alone elsewhere, which store would let me be the shopkeeper so quickly?" Li Youkang said, "Now that I can become the shopkeeper so quickly, it's all because of the care of the Gu family."

"Therefore, I dare not do anything that harms the interests of the Gu family." Li Youkang said, "I dare not repay kindness with enmity."

"My parents said I was unfilial, and I would never dare to accept it." Li Youkang said, "When I was at home, I did all the farm work. I gave all the money I earned to my family, and I didn't keep any money. . It’s just that a man should start a career, and he can’t sit in a corner all his life. I also want to earn more money to make my family’s life better.”

"I have long wanted to work outside, and I have to be kind to my family, so I got this job. My family will also benefit from it. Otherwise, I would be at home watching over my two elders every day, and I would be fulfilling my filial piety, but my family would still be impoverished. .”
