Lin Haizhu is gone.
The back was hunched and stretched very long in the sunset.
Lin Guoqiang sat in the yard and looked at the cloth bag on the table without moving it for a long time.
Zhao Sumei came out of the house and asked softly: "Dad is gone?"
"Yeah."
"What did dad say?"
Lin Guoqiang pushed the cloth bag to her: "I bought us a butterfly sewing machine."
Zhao Sumei opened the cloth bag and saw the receipt, her eyes suddenly turned red.
Not because of how much something is worth.
It's because this is the first time that the old man's house has seriously made up for the second son's family.
"Dad still knows what's going on." Zhao Sumei whispered.
Lin Guoqiang said nothing.
He knew that Lin Haizhu was stronger than Li Hongxia, but only stronger.
Over the years, he remained silent, watching Li Hongxia play favorites and watching the boss and the third take advantage. He knew everything but didn't care about anything.
Now I know it’s because he made trouble.
No fuss, nothing.
Sure enough, the children who still cry and make noises get candy.
"Just keep it." Lin Guoqiang stood up, "It's our turn."
Over at the old house, Li Hongxia was lying on the kang, her face sallow.
When Lin Haizhu came in, she sat up and said, "Did you really buy a sewing machine for your second son?"
"Bought."
"You..." Li Hongxia patted the edge of the kang, "Are you crazy? How much money do we still have?"
Lin Haizhu sat down by the Kang and said in a low voice: "I bought a watch for the elder brother and a TV for the third child. What does the second child have?"
"Didn't he make money by opening a shop?"
"That's what he earned himself." Lin Haizhu raised his head, "What does it have to do with what we gave him?"
Li Hongxia was choked.
"You favor the boss and the third child, so I won't say anything."
Lin Haizhu puffed on his pipe, "But the second son is also our son. You only gave it to me when someone made trouble. You were forced to do so.
If you don't give it before you make a fuss, that's what you call being a parent."
"The money we have is used to buy a watch for the eldest brother, a TV for the third child, and a sewing machine for the second child." He sighed, "It's almost gone."
Li Hongxia's expression changed: "Empty it?"
"Less than two hundred dollars left."
Li Hongxia collapsed on the kang and didn't speak for a long time.
Two hundred yuan was a lot less in 1981, but a lot more than it was.
But the old couple had no income, and this little money was just a coffin book.
