Finally, unable to understand and not wanting to be laughed at by classmates, he dropped out and ran back home, clamoring never to go to school again.
Mrs. Xu’s heart ached for her son, so she let Xu Chunlai hang around at home and in the village.
All this she learned from Third Sister.
Later, when Lao Wu came of age to attend school, Mrs. Xu sent him to school as well, but Xu Chunwang’s mind wasn’t much stronger than Xu Chunlai’s. He barely managed to complete elementary school after eight years.
Then, following suit, he started idling about like Xu Chunlai, and the family relied solely on their parents and the sisters’ earnings from working for a living.
Feeling aggrieved, Xu Chunmei glared at Xu Chunlai. To her surprise, it seemed her words infuriated him, and he slapped her across the face on impulse.
Father Xu finished his meal, placed his bowl on the table in front of him, and sat on the stool, watching indifferently as Mrs. Xu tore and scratched at Chunxia, and as Chunlai greeted Chunmei’s face with a slap.

"You wouldn’t dare!"
Mrs. Xu stopped her wailing, glared at her eldest son: "If you dare to go to the Wang family to become a married-in son-in-law, your mother will bash her head in right in front of you, and then let’s see how you live with yourself!"
"It’s not like I told you to seek death, so what do I have to worry about? Besides, this family still has Lao Wu, you and Dad needn’t worry about not having a son to support you in old age!"
With those words, Xu Chunlai lifted his leg to return to his room with his wife Wang Xinger, but after a couple of steps, he turned his head back and continued to speak to Mrs. Xu: "I’m not just trying to scare you, if you don’t change that temper of yours,
