"Every family has an old person, but yours has one, right?"

"That's right, you're not satisfied with taking advantage. If you don't allow us to do so, we all disagree."

"Yes, I disagree. Don't even think about cutting in line."

Someone in the team turned around and spat at the old lady.

I was waiting for my second son to bring back good news, but when I saw them like this, my lips trembled with anger. "You...you guys...you think I'm an old man who can't stand up and is easy to bully, right?"

His chest was heaving violently, his breathing was very rapid, his eyes were bulging, and he almost got his eyeballs popping out of his head from being so angry.

He slapped his thigh and twisted his body a few times. Suddenly, he felt a little uncomfortable in the injured part of his leg. He quickly stopped exerting his strength. He felt that everyone had let him down. He raised his arms and hammered his chest again and again. His mouth was so wide open that it seemed as if he could see his stomach directly. He howled and cried.

"Ah~ You really know how to bully me. You bully me because I'm old and because I have a leg disease. Are you guys still human? Do you think you will get retribution sooner or later if you don't get old?"

It was thunder without rain and not a single tear fell. Wealth and wealth were already worrying enough and when I calmed down, my mind was filled with the scene of my precious grandson being scolded by a group of people. I felt extremely aggrieved and was refused to cut in line, so I finally had a chance to vent.

Some people couldn't bear to listen anymore and simply covered their ears, with disgust on their faces.

A voice erupted from the crowd, "How can you talk like that, old lady? What do you mean there's no day when you'll grow old? Helping you is a favor, and not helping you is my duty. Besides, we don't have any favors to begin with."

Someone else echoed: "That's right, she just shamelessly asks others to give way to her, without considering her own moral character."

"You have lived in the same village for so long, and your reputation is well-known to everyone. It's really shameful that no one is willing to help you at such an old age and with a broken leg."

"You said we were being punished, but it seems you were punished first. You are still lying on the stretcher and can't get up. Humph, God couldn't stand it anymore and broke your legs."

The old lady couldn't believe her ears when she heard this. Why did everyone's mouths seem to be poisoned? They cried even louder. "I've made note of all of you young men. When my legs are healed, I'm going to tear your mouths apart one by one."

"If you treat an old man like this, the children will follow suit and you will suffer in the future."

"You all say that I have a bad reputation, but you are just saying that I have a bad mouth. I think you are even worse than that. Be careful not to get your tongue rotted."

The old lady pointed at the crowd to vent her anger, but it was not satisfying at all. She didn't feel good after arguing, nor did she join the queue. Her teeth were chattering.

He said to himself, "Anyway, I must be at the front of the team today. No one can stop me."

He waved his hand and called the eldest and second eldest brothers over.

The two men stood in front of their mother.

The old lady had to look up at the two men, and her neck almost broke.

He uttered two words neatly, "Squat down."

The eldest and the second son squatted down immediately without any extra movements. They had to listen to their mother now. She was angry and if they disobeyed her, they would suffer the consequences.

I didn't dare ask what it was, for fear that she would take her anger out on me without knowing the truth.

The old lady stared at the two of them, looking back and forth for a while, and felt that they were really useless. Why didn't they help out just now? They were no better than a wooden stake, which at least could be used as firewood.

The more he looked at it, the angrier he got. He slapped them directly. The eldest and the second oldest were the ones who suffered. They tilted their heads in the same direction with disbelief in their eyes. They didn't do anything, but they were... beaten...

He covered the place where he was hit and turned his head around.

There was a hint of joy in the second child's eyes, as if his mother's slap had healed his neck.

I moved it secretly and it really didn’t hurt anymore.

Happy and sad at the same time, the expressions on his face changed faster than the weather.

My neck doesn't hurt anymore, but the place where I was hit hurts. Fortunately, the pain is only temporary and will heal soon.

The old lady thought that the second son’s brain was not working properly because of the beating, and he was crying and laughing at the same time, but she was too lazy to pay attention to him.

The boss still looked stunned and didn't react.

"Why? Are you feeling wronged because you got beaten for doing nothing?"

"You are still my sons, huh? You saw your mother being bullied and you were cowardly. You are not dumb. You can speak normally, but you become dumb at the critical moment, huh? Coward."

The eldest brother didn't want to talk about the past, but even in the past two years, his mother was unrivaled in the village. She could make the dead come alive with her words. It seems that she is really old and her tongue is not as sharp as before.

But my mother wasn't at a disadvantage just now, so she didn't think she would need help again.

I rubbed the place where I was hit and the pain was much less than at the beginning.

"Mother, I didn't feel very happy when you scolded me, but I felt very happy listening to you. You didn't suffer any loss either, because you scolded me back."

The old lady felt that these words touched her heart, and she liked to hear others praise her like this, but she still had to be humble, after all, she didn't feel good when being scolded.

"Huh, it's really far worse than before."

When the second brother saw that the old lady's expression relaxed a little, he knew that his eldest brother's flattery was very effective, so he just went along with it, and he was right.

"Mom, you are still as heroic as ever, but you haven't had enough rest recently. If you had, no one would be your opponent."

The old lady laughed triumphantly, "That's right."

He suddenly remembered what he was going to do, stopped smiling and put on a stern face.

"I came here to talk to you two about something."

The eldest and the second oldest looked at each other, feeling vaguely uneasy and having a bad premonition.

Mother won't let me do anything dangerous, right? Lately she has been acting out random thoughts and always has some weird ideas. It may be because I have been staying in the house for too long. There is nothing I can do about it, after all, she is my mother, not someone else's.

The two listened to the old lady's speech with some trepidation.

"Carry me there."

The eldest brother hummed reluctantly, and his brain stopped working when he saw where his mother was pointing.

The second brother looked over and blinked a few times before he realized what she was trying to do.

My mouth accidentally opened wide, "Mom, do you really have to join this team?"

The eldest brother felt that this was not appropriate. If she was too old to squeeze in with them, what would happen if she got hurt? Her leg was already injured, and it would be difficult for two people to protect her while carrying a stretcher.

The old lady is very strong-willed and I have never seen such a determined look in her eyes.

"Yes, I'm going to force my way in. I don't know who dares to stop me."

The second child was so frightened that he could hardly speak clearly.

"Mom, this... can't be done. What if someone is so blind that he wants to get you into the ground?"
