Courtyard House: A Great Musician! Red Songs Resound Worldwide

After everything was settled, Li's mother called them together for a meeting and announced her decision.

Li Chaoyang wasn't too surprised; his mother had told him before that they should rent a place outside.

His older brother was different. Upon hearing this, he kept shaking his head, thinking, "Wouldn't that make me an unfilial son?"

They live in the old house, and if the elderly couple were to rent a place outside, people would laugh their heads off.

“I don’t agree with doing this. How old are you all? Why do you still need to rent a place outside?”

"Why would I want to go outside when I'm perfectly fine here? I've told you so many times that I'll take good care of this house."

“My wife isn’t as unreasonable or argumentative as you all say.”

"He was pregnant, and his emotions were a bit unstable; he would burst into tears at the drop of a hat."

"Actually, he's a very good person. I'll go back and have him apologize to you. Please don't take it to heart!"

Everyone has a sense of self-respect, and the eldest son is also a person with a particularly strong sense of self-respect.

When I heard my mom mention renting a house, I immediately thought of the conflicts between them.

I felt incredibly indebted to my mother, who is already so old, yet she voluntarily came to his home.

The one helping to tidy up this and that is his young wife, who doesn't know how to handle mother-in-law/daughter-in-law relationships.

He was also frustrated with his son's lack of progress, and the two argued about this quite a bit in private.

This directly led to a less than harmonious relationship between the couple; every day when he went to work, he still missed home.

Women shouldn't be spoiled too much; the more you spoil them, the more problems they'll have! They'll become unruly.

"There's something I need to say upfront: your father and I have decided to move out, and it has absolutely nothing to do with your daughter-in-law."

“We took your wife’s unborn child into consideration; he is the root of the Li family.”

"We can't let him be born in a place where the wind blows from all sides."

"You can do whatever you want, I don't care if you eat coarse food and wild vegetables. It's good for young people to experience more hardship."

“My eldest grandson is no good, he’s my precious darling, how could I not know he was in such a dilapidated house?”

"That's settled then. Go back and tell your wife that the two of us are moving out."

"We'll vacate this old 040 house for you, so you don't have to rent a place outside."

"There's one thing I have to say upfront: you can live in this house, but you can't sell it."

“This house belongs to us, and this involves an inheritance issue.”

“I have two sons. After I pass away, this house will be sold and half of it will be given to Li Chaoyang.”

"Don't be fooled by their privileged circumstances; it's all about the score! Especially when it comes to inheritance!"

This is where the elderly couple's brilliance lay: they proposed first how the house should be divided after they passed away.

The house is meant for the eldest son; he can't sell it.

Don't be fooled by what we're saying now; anything can happen once you move in.

We must consider the bigger picture. We can't treat everyone unfairly just because he's not very capable or his family isn't well-off, or make Li Chaoyang feel uncomfortable.

He's my son, so I won't care about so much. But I also have a daughter-in-law, so I have to get past this hurdle.

When Li Chaoyang told his mother about this, he didn't mention that the house was only temporarily for his older brother.

He even thought about giving him half of the house after they died, since he wasn't someone without a house.

He doesn't want to come back to fight for the inheritance. Besides, his parents are in good health, so isn't it a bit too early to talk about these things now?

He really disliked his mother's way of speaking; she kept mentioning death, which he considered very unlucky!

"Mom, I don't really want to hear what you're saying. Why did you bring up what will happen to the house after Dad and I pass away?"

"It's a bit too early. I'm not coming back to fight for this house. Give it to my brother and sister-in-law so they can live there!"

That foolish son of his wants to give up his inheritance rights.

Even if this house doesn't sell for much money, every little bit helps!

“It’s not that I’m speaking too early. Your father and I are both over sixty years old. We’re like ripe melons that fall off the vine with just a gentle touch.”

"I might leave you one day, so it's good to make this clear in advance."

"Your life is yours, but your house has nothing to do with us."

"We are your biological parents, and we must treat you equally!"

“I can’t control how you’re a leader outside, but this is a family matter that we have to decide. I’ll say it again.”

"After you go back, you should all have a good talk with your wives and see what they think!"

"Don't tell me I'm in charge of this family. I hate hearing that last sentence. What era are we living in? Why are people still playing the male chauvinist card?"

"This home isn't just yours alone."

"What you say doesn't count; the two of you have to sit down and discuss it properly."

Li's mother immediately shut her two sons up, telling them not to make such grand pronouncements in front of her.

It's as if what you say inside is incredibly effective; it's practically sycophancy, if not sycophancy.

His eldest son, in particular, couldn't make decisions for his wife. When he went to his house, he had to be mindful of his daughter-in-law's attitude.

They talk a big game now, but when it really matters, it's a different story.

"Are you really going to let us live in this big house? How about this?"

"If we move in, you don't need to rent a place outside anymore. Just live with us."

The eldest son changed his mind quite quickly and emphasized that he wanted to live with them.

He had experienced firsthand how formidable his eldest daughter-in-law was; he wanted to live a few more years and didn't want to live with her.

There are too many contradictions, and he simply doesn't have that ability.

I just finished taking care of an elderly person, and now I have to take care of a daughter-in-law. It's really exhausting.

Everyone who has served others knows the hardships involved.

"Stop it. Don't say that in front of me. I've made myself perfectly clear. Go back and discuss it properly with your wives."

"Our decision to move out is for everyone's sake; living together just creates too many conflicts."

"If I move out, there won't be as many conflicts, and you can come back to see me during holidays."

"It's so much better than being together. I've been through this before, I know how to handle it."

"You all know my temper; at home, I always have the final say."

"If it weren't for the fact that you all already have wives, I could settle down right now!"

My mother's words still carry a lot of weight; in their memory, she's always been like this since they were little.

He says what he'll do, and his dad's opinion doesn't count; they're also quite afraid of their mom.

They call him a "tigress" in private, and as soon as he shouts, they immediately come to his side obediently.

Even though they've grown up, they still can't shake this habit. Li Chaoyang and his brother exchanged a glance but said nothing.

Knowing his personality, I know he'll get angry if I keep emphasizing it, so it's best not to provoke him.

Wouldn't it be better if everyone sat down together and had a good chat?

"Mom, please stop giving orders. We all know your personality; you're a person of your word."

"There's something I need to say upfront; this is something we all need to sit down and discuss together."

0 .... 0

“After we go back, we’ll tell our wives about this. In a couple of days, when Grandma holds her seventh-day memorial service, we’ll all come over to discuss it together.”

"There's one more thing we need to clarify. You can't just make a blanket decision. What if Lou Xiao'e agrees to let you come to my house?"

"Stop making excuses. Just pack your things and bring your dad to my house."

This one sentence caught Li Chaoyang's brother off guard.

Why did they bring his parents to Li Chaoyang's house? It's a bit too much of a slap in the face for him.

They've moved into the old house; the two elderly people have gone to stay with his younger brother. If word gets out, people will laugh at them to death.

He's a man who cares about his reputation, especially since he's lived with his neighbors in this courtyard for so many years.

Seeing the young couple move in and the old couple being taken away by Li Chaoyang, where could he put his face?

"Chaoyang, something feels off. When did you tell Mom about this?"

"You absolutely cannot bring them to your home."
