"Senior, you be the judge! He's incompetent, yet he won't let me go with him to make money. Why should I spend my whole life fishing with him, smelling like fish my whole life!"

"I put in the most effort in fishing, so why should I get an equal share?"

Su Chengguo, her face flushed, roared loudly.

Su Chenggong was also furious.

"Since Dad's not here, the eldest brother is like a father. Today, I'll teach you a lesson in Dad's place!"

Su Chenggong took direct action.

The two brothers started fighting, and Su Chengguo accidentally kicked over the table.

The things in Zhao Jixue's room were also accidentally smashed to pieces.

Zhao Jixue was slow to react, but once he realized what was happening, he immediately started a fight.

"Stop fighting, all of you calm down."

Zhao Jixue was also swaying. He had drunk too much alcohol and his alcohol tolerance was not very high. He felt too weak to even break up the fight.

His house was quickly turned into a complete mess by the two brothers.

The pet cages were all overturned.

Zhao Jixue ignored the two brothers and rushed to protect the cage, afraid that they might be accidentally trampled to death by the treasure inside.

"Why are you fighting... Don't fight in our house..."

The fight between Su Chenggong and his brother alerted the Zhao family.

Zhou Li frowned as she tried to mediate the fight, and Zhao Jifa also rushed over to try to stop it.

Zhao Jixue put the cage back in place and then came out to mediate the fight.

"Let's talk this out about the successful outcome. Even brothers are connected by blood!"

Zhao Jixue sighed and went to break up the fight, but was accidentally injured by Su Chenggong.

Su Chenggong was a taciturn man who couldn't utter a single word, yet he was ruthless, punching him in the chin, causing him to burst into tears from the pain!

Su Chengguo was also unruly and erratic, using both hands and feet to stomp and kick, all the while cursing: "I knew you weren't up to any good, you've been wanting to get back at me for a long time! You're so ruthless, you don't treat me like a younger brother, and I don't treat you like a real brother either. You hit me ten times, I'll hit you a hundred times back! You're a damn real brother!"

"Hey, what's going on here? Why are you all fighting all of a sudden?"

Zhou Li was very anxious. In the chaos, she was stepped on twice by someone. She also had paronychia, and being stepped on twice was really going to kill her.

Seeing that Su Chenggong and his brother were also furious, they looked at Zhao Jixue with even more resentment.

"Stop hitting me! If you keep hitting me, get out of my house!"

Zhou Li gritted her teeth and shouted loudly. She didn't care that Su Chenggong and his brother were guests. All she wanted now was for them to leave as soon as possible.

What kind of situation is this? They actually started fighting in their own home.

"snort."

Su Chenggong gave a cold snort, glared at Su Chengguo, and turned to leave.

Su Chengguo spat and then cursed, "I knew he wasn't a good person all along, senior. You have to take me with you when it comes to making money. I even broke ties with my older brother for you. I have to hurry back so he doesn't twist the truth in front of my parents!"

After Su Chengguo finished speaking, she hurriedly followed, unable to hide her anger, cursing as she walked.

After the two brothers left, Zhou Li sat on the stool and looked at Zhao Jixue with a mournful expression, asking, "What happened? Why did they start fighting while eating? Why did Su Chengguo ask you to help him make money?"

Didn't we agree that Su's boat would help his own boat make money? How come Su Chengguo is instead asking Zhao Jixue to help him make money?

Zhou Li looked at her brother-in-law with a scrutinizing gaze!

"Don't worry about this, it's none of your business. When it comes to making money, I'll make sure my own people are included."

Zhao Jixue disliked Zhou Li's gaze. He knew his sister-in-law was cunning and calculating, and a woman who loved to scheme was unlikely to suffer losses. But when it came to scheming against him, Zhao Jixue wouldn't tolerate it.

After speaking coldly, Zhao Jixue returned to his room.

Zhou Li was furious. She had spent so much time cooking for him, and now she was being trampled on for nothing. All she asked her brother-in-law a few questions, and he gave her a hard time.

Zhou Li looked at Zhao Jifa and complained, "You saw it, didn't you? How did your brother treat me? Do you know how hard it was for me to take care of this family all these years? He hasn't been home for more than ten years. I'm the one who took care of your parents. He's only been back for a few days and he's already giving me attitude."

Zhao Jifa lowered his head, too ashamed to look at Zhou Li's complaints, and he stammered for an explanation.

"This is probably because the Su brothers got into a fight. I'll ask them what happened later. The second brother is in a bad mood right now, so don't take it to heart."

As Zhao Jifa spoke, he looked at Zhou Li and gave her a fawning smile.

Zhou Li rolled her eyes, got up, and limped back into the house.

Zhao's father and mother looked worriedly towards Zhao Jixue's room and whispered to Zhao Jifa, "Eldest son, you only have one younger brother. He's young and doesn't know any better. As his older brother, you should take better care of him."

The two elders hadn't spoken a word in front of their daughter-in-law, but now that Zhou Li had gone back to her room, they finally had a chance to say a few words.

Zhao Jifa smiled sheepishly and nodded: "Don't worry, Mom and Dad, I'll ask around."

What started as a simple dinner invitation turned into this mess.

The elderly couple helped each other back into their house.

Zhao Jifa walked toward Zhao Jixue's house.

"Ah Xue, what's going on?"

After Zhao Jifa entered the house, he helped tidy up. Looking at the bowls, chopsticks, and some leftover food, Zhao Jifa felt a little sorry for them, as these things also cost money.

These drinks are all valuable.

Thinking about Su Chengguo's words, Zhao Jifa also felt a little resentful.

My younger brother has ways to make money and can help outsiders, but I've never considered him.

"Brother, you need to teach Zhou Li a lesson. She's outrageous! You need to act like a man! How can we let her ride roughshod over our whole family like that!"

Zhao Jixue felt irritated just thinking about Zhou Li's face. Unfortunately, his parents were in poor health and had to put up with Zhou Li's attitude. His older brother was a good-for-nothing who watched his parents suffer without doing anything to stop Zhou Li.

"well."

Zhao Jifa smiled and nodded in agreement.

"Ah Xue, how are things going for you outside?"

Zhao Jifa tentatively inquired that if there really was a way to make money, his younger brother would be willing to take him under his wing.

Surviving at sea is too difficult, and he wasn't very lucky. If he had other ways to make money, he could naturally have a high status at home.

"There are some problems outside right now, but they'll be fine once they're resolved. Then I'll build you a three-story house and find you a better one!"

Zhao Jixue looked at Zhao Jifa and said that once the mission was successfully completed, he would go back to making money. He would stop once he had made enough this time and live a peaceful life from then on.

"Alright, if your older brother is incompetent, our family will depend on you."

Zhao Jifa laughed. His younger brother still cared about him, and that was enough.

Zhao Jifa left after tidying up Zhao Jixue's room.

Zhao Jixue lay in bed and soon fell asleep.

The gray-clothed creature, fast asleep in its cage, shifted its position, closed its eyes, and drifted off to sleep. Its chubby little paws rested on its head, its little nose twitched slightly, and its whiskers trembled gently; it was clearly happy.
