Courtyard House: A Great Musician! Red Songs Resound Worldwide

"You don't need to worry about Mom. Mom and Dad are both in good health. They're just staying at home doing nothing, so I can help them out a bit."

Actually, Li Chaoyang didn't want his parents to work too hard and wanted them to be healthy.

But I also know that my mother is a stubborn person.

It's not something you can change with just a few words.

After finishing everything, relatives and friends sat down together for a meal.

Although it was a funeral banquet, everyone still asked about Li Chaoyang out of concern.

How's your job going?

"pretty good."

The aunt sitting next to her said to her daughter.

"Look how successful your brother is! If you don't study hard, what will you do in the future? You need to study hard so that after graduating from university, you'll have a good job and a good employer." (030)

Hearing his aunt say this, Li Chaoyang smiled slightly and remained silent.

"Li Chaoyang, can you teach my sister? She's in middle school now, but she just doesn't want to study. Do you have any methods to teach her?"

Li Chaoyang really didn't know how to answer his aunt.

In Li Chaoyang's mind, studying was his own business.

It's not that you can truly learn something just because someone tells you how to learn it.

Even if you have the best teacher by your side to guide you.

If you don't connect with your own inner voice.

It's actually not very useful.

"Is Xiaojuan 16 this year?"

"Of course, it's so fast. You don't come home often anymore, it's hard to even see you."

Xiao Juan lowered her eyes as she listened to Li Chaoyang's words and said.

"Brother, you are everyone's idol, and I am everyone's negative example. I just don't want to learn."

Xiao Juan'er's words immediately put everyone at the table in an awkward situation, especially her aunt.

"Look at you, kid. If you hadn't gone to a good university, would you have such a good job today?"

"Didn't you mention that your school principal even stood on the stage praising your brother? Why don't you take it to heart?"

"Our school principal didn't say that my brother was good at studying. He just said that my brother sings patriotic songs well now, and everyone is praising it, so our school should also learn to sing them."

"Hey bro, you said I don't want to study, how about I learn to sing with you?"

"Okay, actually, there are top performers in every profession. If you're just unwilling to learn, aren't there plenty of other professions out there?"

"Auntie, don't push Xiao Juan'er too hard."

"Sigh, Chaoyang, you really don't understand me. Our family has produced a college student like you, which is a great honor for the whole family in this area."

"I just want Juan'er to study hard and get into college, right?"

Although the aunt meant well and hoped her daughter could also go to university.

But listening to what Xiaojuan said, he had no desire to study at all.

She does enjoy singing.

Li Chaoyang then suggested that Xiaojuan apply to a singing and dancing school.

"We seem to have art schools now, mainly because if you don't want to study, you can apply to an art college."

"When I graduate, I can become a teacher, which would be pretty good."

"Hey bro, is this true? Can I really get into a dance school? If there really is such a school, I'd love to apply!"

"Why would I lie to you, bro? A guy like that came to my workplace a couple of days ago. What college did he graduate from?"

"At that school, she studied singing and dancing, and also took some academic subjects, but her main focus was on singing and dancing."

"But I forgot the name. I'll ask you when we get back."

Upon hearing Li Chaoyang's words, Xiao Juan's hope was instantly rekindled.

Unlike when her aunt scolded Xiao Juan'er at the beginning.

After hearing what Li Chaoyang said, Auntie realized that Xiao Juan wasn't cut out for studying either.

Since the child likes singing and dancing, let her learn it.

After dinner, everyone went home.

Li Chaoyang also returned to his parents' home.

The parents tidied up the old bed.

Let Li Chaoyang live in his old bed.

"This bed is so old. As far as I can remember, I've been living on it since junior high school."

"That's right. Your mother and I usually live on the kang (heated brick bed), so this room is just sitting empty. It's been vacant ever since you got married, and your brother doesn't come back."

"Mom, my brother seems a little unhappy."

“Your brother had a fight with his wife the other day. Didn’t you see the couple at your grandma’s funeral?”

"Are they both keeping a straight face? It's a funeral anyway, so it's hard to tell. They're still arguing."

"Mom, what exactly happened between them? Don't you know?"

“Your brother and sister-in-law got married one after the other, didn’t they? Your sister-in-law’s family isn’t well-off, and our family’s situation is just so-so.”

"When they got married, they didn't live in this room at first, but in the east or west room. It's just that your sister-in-law didn't like living here."

"Later, I discussed it with your brother and we decided to rent a place to live. Anyway, it's close to our workplaces, and we're both busy with work."

"Later on, your sister-in-law got pregnant, and the family's finances became tight. They couldn't get enough nutrition, so your brother started to increase her nutrition."

"At that time, your sister-in-law's younger brother was probably hospitalized because he injured his leg while driving."

"There was no money for medical expenses, so we borrowed from your sister-in-law and brother, who didn't have any savings to begin with."

"After the rent and living expenses are paid by the two of them together each month, there is hardly anything left."

"When your sister-in-law got her salary this month, she didn't give it to your brother. She lent it directly to her younger brother. Even if she lent it to her younger brother, it wouldn't be enough for him to do anything."

“Your brother was unhappy when he heard about this. You know your sister-in-law not only lent this month’s salary to her brother.

"He even borrowed five months' salary from his colleagues at work, and gave all the money to his brother to pay for medical expenses."

“Although it’s not a big deal, just emergency money, your brother feels that your sister-in-law didn’t consult him before doing this, which is disrespectful to him.”

"They feel that their family's conditions are already so poor, and they don't have the ability to help, so they shouldn't force themselves to do so."

“They’ve been in arrears on rent for three months. Your dad and I couldn’t just watch them suffer like this, so we went and paid their rent for three months.”

"Who knew your older brother would be even more upset when he found out your dad and I paid the rent?"

"Mom, you're helping my brother and sister-in-law, what's wrong with him?"

“Your brother said that 033 originally moved out of the house because he didn’t want to live with his parents. Now, his parents are even having to pay the rent.”

"Feeling ashamed, he pushed all the blame onto your sister-in-law."

"I also advised your brother, saying that Xiaohua is already more than three months pregnant, so why are you arguing with him over such a small matter?"

“Life isn’t like this; if there’s a war, things will fall apart. You have to deal with things when they happen. Even if you don’t care about the person, you have to consider the child in her belly.”

"I had only been trying to persuade them for a couple of days when your grandmother fell seriously ill, and they haven't been able to take care of their affairs since."

"Anyway, when I saw them arrive at the scene, although they came and left together, their expressions were both blank."

"Mom, it's their business, you shouldn't get involved. Besides, you've already advised my brother, what he does is their business."

"Anyway, I think everyone has their own reasons for this. If you get entangled in it, you might end up getting yourself into trouble."

"We can't let outsiders laugh at us, can we?"

"Was it my brother who wanted to move out, or my sister-in-law?"

"Is that even a question? Of course, it's your sister-in-law who's moving out, and your brother is just sitting at home eating whatever's served to him."

“When I get home from get off work, I cook for them. Isn’t that great? If they moved out, wouldn’t your brother have to cook for your sister-in-law?”

Li Chaoyang understood what his mother meant.

Even after we got married, my brother and sister-in-law lived at home.

But Mom has been frugal for so many years, she's used to it.

The two men's sons got married around the same time.

At the same time, all the family's savings were divided up.
