This conference was the first hospital conference in ten years and also the first time that the new uncles appeared in public after taking office. In order to gain everyone's recognition, the three uncles held two small meetings in succession.

In particular, an old man seemed to attach great importance to this hospital meeting. Not only did he buy a bunch of ginger slices with his own money, he also brought Sha Zhu and peanuts and melon seeds with him to go door to door to notify everyone.

Of course, everyone agreed to participate out of courtesy.

And so, on the evening of the second day after Liu Haizhong was discharged from the hospital, the meeting began in the open space in the backyard.

Everyone held a cup of ginger tea and formed a circle. In the center of the circle, Liu Haizhong and his wife and their two sons and their families sat on both sides, while the three uncles sat around the table opposite them.

Seeing that everyone had arrived, the first uncle cleared his throat and said loudly, "Everyone is here. We are having a meeting today, mainly about the Liu family's affairs. Now please ask the second and third uncles to tell us the whole story, and then we can discuss it."

The third uncle stood up with some pride, clasped his fists towards the neighbors around him, and began to tell the story of Liu Haizhong's hospitalization.

I have to say, a Chinese teacher is a Chinese teacher. The third uncle told the story with great passion and emotion, and with the additions from the second uncle Lin Shuming, although the purpose of the Liu brothers' return was concealed, everyone basically understood it.

All of a sudden, everyone's attention was focused on the two brothers of the Liu family. Some expressed contempt, some showed disdain, and some showed sympathy.

Liu Guangtian and Liu Guangfu looked at each other, lowered their heads together, and hid the dissatisfaction in their eyes.

After everyone had discussed it for a while, the uncle asked Liu Haizhong, "Old Liu, you are the person involved, so you should tell us how to deal with it first."

"Humph."

Liu Haizhong glared at his two sons angrily and said, "I worked so hard to raise them, but they turned out to be two ungrateful wolves. One of them never came home for the holidays after getting married, and the other ran away to marry someone else. What else can I say? We old couple don't need them to serve us."

Liu Haizhong's voice was like a heavy hammer, hitting the hearts of the two Liu brothers hard.

Before he finished speaking, Liu Guangfu couldn't help but start to complain, his voice was like a dog whose tail was stepped on: "Dad, we have to speak with conscience. If you were not unwilling to give me a betrothal gift, would I have run away to marry into your family?"

Liu Guangtian said with a look of grief and indignation: "That's right, if my father hadn't been so partial to me, would I have moved out with my wife?"

This is really the case of 'If the father is not kind, the son will be unfilial'.

Seeing everyone's eyes looking at her and her husband again, the second aunt choked up and said, "No matter what, you can't hit your dad, right?"

Liu Guangtian quickly explained: "Who hit my dad? We were fighting, and my dad came up to me on his own. We didn't even know when he fell."

Seeing that the Liu family was about to quarrel again, the uncle quickly stepped in to act as a peacemaker.

He first advised the Liu brothers: "Even if you didn't mean it, you are making your father suffer. He is over 60 years old and has to suffer like this. Just let your father scold you, and don't confront him."

The Liu brothers looked at each other again and apologized to Liu Haizhong in unison.

"Dad, we don't dare anymore!"

Seeing that the Liu brothers had given in, the eldest uncle advised Liu Haizhong: "Old Liu, I know what you are thinking, but it is still uncertain whether your eldest son can come back. I think it is likely that you will still rely on these two sons in the future. Since they have no place to live now, you should at least think about them a little bit."

Liu Haizhong thought for a moment, then reluctantly said, "It's fine to let them stay, but when the boss comes back, they'll have to leave!"

As soon as he said this, the neighbors around him were a little uncomfortable, not to mention his two sons.

Isn't this just killing the donkey after it has done its job, or sharpening the knife in front of the donkey?

"Why?!"

"Just because I'm your father and I built that house, if you guys are really capable, go out and find a house for yourselves. I will never live here for even a single day!"

Seeing that the two sides were about to quarrel again, an old man slammed the table and shouted "Quiet" angrily to control the situation.

But after everyone quieted down, he rubbed his brows helplessly. The Liu family members all had bad tempers and didn't even pretend. How could he deal with this?

At this moment, Lin Shuming, who had been watching the show quietly, suddenly spoke up.

"If Lao Liu is really out of ideas now, I have an idea that won't count."

The first uncle was like seeing a savior, and said hurriedly: "Second uncle, if you have any ideas, just tell us, and we can discuss whether it is feasible or not."

"alright."

Lin Shuming took a sip of tea and organized his words in his mind. When everyone was almost impatient, he said slowly, "I think the Liu family's Mao Dun is mainly the two temporary houses. It just so happens that I have a nephew in the village who is going to find a job in the city. I was thinking that our Lin family would buy these two small houses for my nephew to live in. Then, Liu would give the money to Guangtian Guangfu half each, and Guangtian Guangfu would take care of their father in his old age. It can be regarded as a father-son relationship."

After a while, the old man asked hesitantly, "Lao Lin, how do you buy it? Houses can't be bought and sold now. Besides, these houses are illegal buildings. Even if you buy them, they may be demolished in the future."

"Just tear it down."

Lin Shuming pretended to be carefree and said, "I have done my best to find a place for my nephew to stay. He will have to move out sooner or later. How can a man live in such a small house?"

As soon as he said this, the Liu brothers couldn't help but feel a little ashamed.

The uncle pondered for a moment and asked Liu Haizhong, "Old Liu, what do you think of Old Lin's idea?"

Liu Haizhong thought about Lin Zongxuan who was a factory manager riding in a car, and then looked at his two disappointing sons, and couldn't help but sigh.

"Just do as Lao Lin said."

"Okay, then you guys can talk later."

The old man looked at the sky and saw that it was getting late. He made a summary with some regret: "As the old saying goes, the tiger is the king of all beasts, and no one dares to offend its anger. Only the father-son relationship looks back at each step.

This father and son relationship is the result of several lifetimes of karma. Some people want it but cannot get it, so they must cherish it.

However, there are no elders who are not right in the world. It is only natural for a father to train his son. I hope that such things will not happen again in the Liu family in the future."

After hearing Yi Zhonghai's words, some people were touched, while others secretly felt disdainful.

There was another person who had been in deep thought since Lin Shuming started speaking.

This person is Xu Damao standing behind the three uncles.
