Chapter 826 Marrying My Sister 41
Mother Li said with a bitter face, "Your two brothers don't have an easy life either. The children need to go to school, get married, and buy a house. Everything requires money. Your two brothers are just small contractors and don't make much throughout the year."

She stuffed the money into her eldest daughter's pocket and said, "Hongchun, don't think it's too little. This little money is my mom's private savings after years of hard work. You can rent a house with it and then find a job and work hard. Life will get better and better."

Li Hongchun tightly grasped the money, crying like rain, "Wuwu, Mom, I'm over 40 years old, and you still want me to rent a house. How can I have the face to rent one? My eldest brother and second brother's families have bought houses, but I don't have one. Wuwu... It's all my fault. I'm incompetent and useless. I'm old and still have nothing, and I still need you to secretly support me. Wuwu, I don't deserve to live in this world. I might as well die and stop being a burden to you."

Li Hongchun cried and muttered that she wanted to jump into the river.

Mother Li pulled her and said, "Hongchun, stop making trouble. Now that you are out, just live a good life. If you want to buy a house, then earn money to buy it yourself. I can't help you much. Even if I give you these three thousand yuan, you can't let your brother and sister-in-law know, otherwise they will be alienated from me."

Over the past ten years, no matter how much Li's mother felt sorry for her eldest daughter, she also understood one thing in her heart: she was old, and she would have to rely on her two sons for her retirement, not her eldest daughter.

She couldn't offend her two sons for the sake of her eldest daughter.

He asked his two sons for money to buy a house for his eldest daughter. Not to mention whether his two sons and two daughters-in-law agreed or not, even his old man couldn't agree.

What's more, her two sons kept complaining to her about being poor. They were short of money, so where would they get so much money from?

Li's mother hugged Li Hongchun and cried for a while, then took Li Hongchun to a small restaurant for dinner. She also specially ordered a bowl of pork trotter rice noodles for her to eat to get rid of the bad luck for her.

After dinner, Li's mother took Li Hongchun to an agency and helped her rent a small one-bedroom apartment for only 100 yuan a month. Li Hongchun paid three months' rent in one lump sum.

Afterwards, the mother and daughter went to the department store and bought a lot of daily necessities and pots, pans, and other items for Li Hongchun.

After settling Li Hongchun down, Li's mother went to Brother Li's house and asked her eldest son, who had just got off work, to take her back to Tufang Village on a motorcycle.

When Brother Li saw her, he was surprised and asked, "Mom, when did you come to the street? Why didn't you come to eat at noon?"

"I just bought some things and took a walk." Li's mother subconsciously concealed the fact that Li Hongchun had been released from prison, and urged, "Take me home quickly. Your father should be back from the fields. I have to go back and cook for him."

Brother Li got on his motorcycle and kept muttering, "I told Dad a long time ago to rent out the family land and stop farming, but he refused to listen. He is old, but he still goes to the fields and doesn't even feel tired."

"Your father has been farming all his life. You asked him to stop farming and come to the city to enjoy life, but he was reluctant. Old men in the village who are the same age as your father all work in the fields and are more energetic than young people."

Brother Li opened his mouth to retort, but then he thought about his mother’s old age and gave up.

As soon as Li Hongchun was released from prison, Yuanchun received a report from 007. That night, Yuanchun went to Li Hongchun's house wearing a white dress, with long flowing hair and bright red lips.
