Tian Maojin and Tian Maoyin were sentenced to five years in prison and fined 100,000 yuan.
Tian Yongren had already separated from Tian Yongyi and Tian Yongli.
Old Mrs. Tian was being looked after by Tian Yongren, and Tian Ping was being looked after by Tian Yongyi.
The fine, of course, was to be borne by Tian Yongyi's family.
Tian Yongyi wanted to separate Tian Lifu and Tian Ligui.
Tian Lifu, on the contrary, had an opinion: "Dad, if you let Ligui agree to have Maojin adopted by me, I'll share this fine with him."
Tian Ligui refused: "Maojin is my eldest son, I can't possibly have him adopted out. If you really want an adoption, then adopt Maoyin."
Tian Lifu also refused: "I'm the eldest, my son must also be the eldest."
Tian Ligui objected: "If there's no adoption, then even if you have a son, he'll be younger than Maojin. My Maojin will not be adopted out."
Tian Lifu was about to speak again when his wife pulled him: "Lifu, let's go find Dayya and ask her to come back and find a son-in-law. Maojin and Maoyin are in jail, it'll be even harder to find wives for them. We'll spend money for nothing and not even have grandchildren to hold."
Tian Lifu thought it made sense: "Alright, let's split up."
Tian Ligui quickly stopped his elder brother: "Big Brother, Maojin will be adopted by you."
Tian Lifu hesitated.
His wife pulled him away: "I heard Dayya and the others are living very well. Why should we fill Maojin's pit?"
Tian Ligui pulled his elder brother: "Big Brother, didn't you have trouble finding Dayya and the others? Wasn't the travel and accommodation expenses a lot of money?"
Tian Lifu's wife frantically tugged at her husband: "Tian Jing knows, Tian Jing definitely knows."
Tian Ligui wouldn't let go: "Even if Tian Jing knows, she won't tell you, she hates our Tian family."
Tian Lifu, annoyed by being pulled from both sides, forcefully shook his hand.
Tian Ligui said his elder brother had intentionally injured him.
Tian Lifu then proceeded to intentionally injure him for real.
Tian Yongyi, trying to break them up, was accidentally injured by his two sons, twisting his back.
When it rains, it pours!
The women's federation comrades arrived at the Tian family's house and found that it had been divided into three small courtyards.
Old Mrs. Tian, with a crooked mouth and vacant eyes, lay paralyzed on the bed, incontinent.
Tian Ping's stroke was milder, yet no one took her to the hospital for treatment.
The women's federation comrades severely reprimanded the three brothers Tian Yongren, ordering them to quickly send Old Mrs. Tian and Tian Ping to the hospital.
Tian Yongli was unwilling, saying his mother was to be raised by his elder brother.
He was lectured again by the women's federation comrades.
The three Tian brothers reluctantly took the two paralyzed people in the house to the hospital.
As soon as the women's federation comrades left, they immediately arranged for their discharge and went home.
When the women's federation comrades went to the Tian family again, they would go to the hospital again. When the women's federation comrades left, they would go home.
The women's federation comrades got tired and stopped interfering.
The Tian family finally returned to a superficial peace.
Tian Jing also got tired of watching the show and stopped caring.
The New Year was fast approaching. Tian Jing brought A Guang New Year's goods, new clothes, and over a dozen fully charged flashlights.
She reminded A Guang to take care of himself, paid respects to his grandfather, and then descended the mountain.
Upon entering her home, she received a surprise.
"Mom!"
"Xiao Bo?"
Tian Jing looked with surprise at her second son and the young woman beside him. The young woman had a delicate appearance, like a student fresh out of school, with a very clean aura.
She asked expectantly: "Who is this young lady?"
Li Weibo showed his clasped hands to his mother: "This is my girlfriend Yu Ziyu. Ziyu, this is my mom. Young, right? Beautiful, right?"
Yu Ziyu smiled and greeted Tian Jing: "Hello Auntie! Auntie is indeed very young and beautiful."
Tian Jing nodded: "Hello Ziyu. Don't listen to Xiao Bo's exaggeration, I'm just an ordinary woman, aren't I?"
Yu Ziyu swayed her boyfriend's hand and frankly admitted: "Auntie, Xiao Bo is not exaggerating. I fell for his looks. Thank you, Auntie, for giving birth to him so well."
"Hahaha," Tian Jing laughed heartily: "It seems my contribution is not small. You two sit, watch TV, and chat. I'll go check the kitchen."
Tian Jing busied herself in the kitchen arranging the dishes.
Li Weibo affectionately poked his girlfriend's nose: "See? My mom is very approachable, isn't she? I told you to come back with me earlier, but you insisted you weren't mentally prepared."
"Humph!" Yu Ziyu snorted lightly: "If I can't get past your parents, how can I possibly come home with you?"
Li Weibo said proudly: "Your uncle and aunt were very satisfied with me, right?"
"Flirt!" Yu Ziyu playfully chided her boyfriend, then said worriedly: "Will your parents agree with my parents' opinion?"
Li Weibo comforted her: "They will definitely agree, don't worry, they are very open-minded. Besides, I won't be home often in the future, and I won't be able to take care of you. It's only reasonable for you to live with Uncle and Auntie."
Yu Ziyu leaned on her boyfriend's shoulder: "I'm not afraid. I just want you to be safe. In the future, don't be so foolish when you're on missions. And you're absolutely not allowed to take missions to protect women anymore."
"Got it." Li Weibo stroked his girlfriend's hair and explained again:
"Back then, I didn't have a girlfriend to keep me in check, so I could take any mission. From now on, I'll let the teammates take those kinds of missions."
Yu Ziyu smiled happily. Ever since she and Li Weibo became a couple, she had said such things countless times, and Li Weibo had never shown impatience.
"Where's Xiao Bo? I heard Xiao Bo is back."
His voice preceded him as a man entered the living room doorway.
Yu Ziyu quickly sat up straight and stood up.
Li Weibo stood up with her and called out to the man: "Dad, are you home from work?"
"Mmm!" Li Zhengguo nodded, his gaze shifting to Yu Ziyu: "Surname Yu?"
Li Weibo was surprised: "Dad? How did you know?"
Yu Ziyu nervously greeted Li Zhengguo: "Hello Uncle Li!"
Li Zhengguo nodded at Yu Ziyu and looked at his second son: "Did you see your mother?"
"Yes."
"What was her reaction?"
"Very happy."
Li Zhengguo tapped his second son: "You've been fooled by Yu Jinghai."
Yu Ziyu clutched Li Weibo's hand tightly and nervously apologized: "Xiao Bo, I'm sorry. My parents chose you for the mission to find a boyfriend for me."
The smile on Li Weibo's face vanished: "So, whoever takes the mission is the son-in-law your parents chose?"
"No, it's not like that." Yu Ziyu tightened her grip on Li Weibo's hand, which was trying to pull away: "They took a liking to you first, because my dad and Uncle Li were former comrades-in-arms, they..."
"Stop talking!"
Li Weibo pulled his hand away: "No matter the reason, it doesn't outweigh your deception of me."
"We've been together for so long, you had many opportunities to tell me. Why didn't you?"
"Xiao Bo~"
Yu Ziyu looked heartbrokenly at Li Weibo, who exuded a cold aura: "Listen to my explanation."
"I don't want to listen!"
Li Weibo waved his hand, interrupting Yu Ziyu: "You..."
"Slap!"
An agitated Li Weibo received a slap on the head.
"Dad! Why did you hit me?"
Being hit by his father in front of his girlfriend, after deceiving his girlfriend, Li Weibo's self-esteem suffered an unprecedented blow.
"Is this how your mother and I taught you to treat women?"
Li Zhengguo pointed at his second son and raised his hand to strike again.
"No!" Yu Ziyu shielded her boyfriend: "Uncle Li, please let me explain clearly."
Li Zhengguo's hand stopped: "Fine. If he's still this agitated and doesn't listen to you, tell me, and I'll hit him again."
"Mmm, thank you, Uncle Li."
Yu Ziyu quickly pushed her boyfriend away from the living room: "Let's go to your room to talk."
