Chapter 139

As soon as these words fell, the room fell silent. Jiang Meishu wanted to speak, but Liang Qiurun shook his head at her.

Shen Mingying had a quick temper and couldn't stand this atmosphere. She couldn't help but ask, "Mom, are we going to split up? Are we going to be sent away?"

Because, apart from Liang Qiurun and his family, the first, second and third wives in the family still rely on Liang's mother for their livelihood.

Liang's mother wasn't surprised that Shen Mingying was anxious. She opened her eyes, a glint of light flashing in them. "We have to divide everything."

"Big brother, second brother, third brother, fourth brother, I want to give them all away."

She is divorced now and has gotten rid of the heavy burden of Liang's father. She doesn't want to take care of her children anymore. She has taken care of them all her life, until they got married and had children. Now she is sixty years old and doesn't want to take care of them anymore.

Shen Mingying opened her mouth, but she was the daughter-in-law, so she couldn't say anything.

Liang Qiusong was a little reluctant, "Mom, if we really break up, you will be alone."

The children have all started their own families, and their mother is divorced. If the family is divided again, won’t their mother become a real lonely person?

Liang's mother said, "I don't care."

"I've been tired all my life, so let me have a relaxing life."

Things had come to this point, so Liang Qiusong naturally had nothing more to say.

He gave Liang Qiurun a look, and Liang Qiurun, who had been silent all this time, finally spoke up, "I support my mother's division of the family."

Liang Qiusong was stunned. "Fourth brother, if the family really splits up, Mom will be alone."

Liang Qiurun asked in return, "Isn't it good to be alone? You can eat whenever you want, sleep whenever you want, and no longer have to worry about the family's food, grain, and cloth coupons. As long as one person is full, the whole family will not be hungry."

Liang Qiusong was originally against it, but after hearing this, he said silently, "Life like this seems better than now."

Liang's mother felt that what her youngest son said was right, but as a mother, although she was angry that her eldest and third sons did not come, she felt that as a mother, she should give her children a chance.

If they came to pick her up when she was discharged from the hospital, she could get a fairer share of the property.

But no.

Liang's mother was disappointed until the day she was discharged from the hospital. Her eldest and third sons, whom she had waited so long for, never showed up.

This made Liang's mother completely heartbroken.

She shouldn't have had any thoughts about those two heartless sons.

"Mom, let's go back. Please sit down." Liang Qiurun reminded her.

He and Jiang Meishu were the ones who came to pick up Liang's mother on the day she was discharged from the hospital. Liang Qiurun didn't even let Secretary Chen come because Shen Mingying and Liang Qiusong were also going to be in the car.

It was barely a sitting down.

Along the way, Liang's mother had a gloomy face. She had been hospitalized after being injured, and her face looked pale and old.

Jiang Meishu looked up at her several times.

Liang's mother comforted her, "I'm fine."

Jiang Meishu just accompanied her silently all the way until they arrived at Lao Liang's house.

Standing at the door were Liang Lao Da and Liang Lao San, with their wives beside them, obviously waiting for Liang's mother to return.

Faced with the attentiveness of her son and daughter-in-law at this time, Liang's mother seemed to be oblivious. She just asked Jiang Meishu and Shen Mingying to help her in.

She completely ignored her eldest son and his wife, as well as her third son and his wife who were waiting for her at the door.

"What happened to Mom?" Boss Liang was still a little confused. "Why did she go straight in? Didn't she see we were here to take her home?"

Chen Hongjiao was overthinking and a little nervous, "Is she angry?"

Li Min's eyes flickered. She looked at the old lady's back as she walked in and suddenly asked, "Why are you angry? Are you blaming us for not picking her up at the hospital?"

"But we don't have a car?"

She gave the reference answer in one sentence. Sure enough, as soon as she finished speaking, Liang Lao Da and Liang Lao San followed Liang's mother and chased after her.

"Mom, Mom, can you wait for us?"

Facing the cries of her two sons, Liang's mother pretended not to hear them. After entering the house, she sat on the main seat and said, "Qiu Run, go call your third uncle in."

"Also, gather them all into the main room."

This is a plan to completely separate the family.

Liang Qiurun hummed a sound and went out to look for someone. As for Liang Lao Da and the others, they didn't need Liang Qiurun to call them. After seeing Liang's mother ignore them and go straight in, they panicked and ran to the main hall on their own initiative.

When Liang Qiurun left, Boss Liang and the others didn't say anything. However, Li Min, who was smart, realized something. Her eyes flashed, and she asked casually, "What are you doing outside, Fourth Brother?"

Liang Qiurun heard it, but he didn't want to care and just left. This made Li Min a little dissatisfied, and she complained to Liang Laosan, "Look at your fourth brother, he doesn't even take me, his third sister-in-law, seriously."

Liang Laosan didn't take it seriously. "That's normal. He doesn't even take me, his third brother, seriously."

Seeing the man being so cowardly and not having any intention of standing up for her, Li Min couldn't help but get angry. The advantage of this man being easily influenced turned into a disadvantage at this moment.

After thinking about it, she smiled and said, "Let's go inside first and apologize to Mom. I think she will understand that our life is difficult. We don't even have a car, so naturally we can't go to the hospital to visit her."

This is how Li Min speaks, with hidden ulterior motives and hints. Often, with just a few words, she can completely control the idiot Liang Laosan.

Liang Laosan hummed a sound, but just as he was about to apologize after entering, Liang's mother looked up and said, "Shut up."

"Wait."

She had a solemn face, her usual soft and kind look gone, and her eyes and brows were more fierce.

This made Liang Laosan pause subconsciously, and he stood obediently by the side waiting.

Li Min wanted to speak, but Liang's mother also looked over and said, "You don't have the right to speak. Everyone, just stand here and wait."

Her throat had just recovered, but her voice was still a little hoarse. After she said two sentences, Jiang Meishu handed her a cup of monk fruit tea to moisten her throat.

Li Min and Chen Hongjiao, who were standing nearby, saw this scene. They looked at each other and saw a hint of disdain in each other's eyes.

Only people like Jiang Meishu, who come from a humble family, like to use such petty tricks to protect others.

Don't you even look at their mother-in-law? Where did she come from? Could she be bribed by such a small trick?

Jiang Meishu didn't seem to notice the contempt in their eyes. She just lowered her head and quietly counted the lines on her fingers. She thought, the Liang family is about to change.

And these people don't know it yet.

She waited quietly. Perhaps because the room had been quiet for too long and the atmosphere was a little heavy, even a fool would have noticed something was wrong.

"Mom, what happened?" Liang Lao Da couldn't help but ask. Without waiting for his mother to answer, he muttered to himself, "Are you blaming us for not visiting you? But Mom, we're not like Qiu Run, who has a car. We don't have a car, so how can we go to the hospital to see you?"

Liang's mother looked at them coldly. This was the son she had given birth to after ten months of pregnancy.

"No car, no legs?"

When she went to the hospital, they didn't go.

They didn't go when she was in the hospital.

When she was discharged from the hospital, they still didn't go.

These people were not other people, but the sons that Qin Wanru gave birth to after ten months of pregnancy.

When asked this question, Liang Lao Da was speechless. "Mom, it's raining heavily..."

What a waste.

Chen Hongjiao took over the conversation, "Mom, we think Qiurun and the others are enough in the hospital. We are at home taking care of the family and waiting for you to come home. This is also filial piety to you."

Liang's mother closed her eyes, as if she didn't hear anything.

Chen Hongjiao hit a snag and felt uncomfortable, so she stopped talking immediately.

Li Min next to her also noticed the problem. She immediately acted like an outsider and observed quietly. The old lady's biological son was present, and there was no way she, the daughter-in-law, would interfere.

I don’t know how long it took.

Liang Qiurun came in, and he also called in his third uncle and the Liang family members who followed behind. He even called in Liang Rui, Liang Feng, and Liang Haibo who were outside.

This made Boss Liang and the others immediately realize that the problem was unusual.

"Why are there so many people here?"

Seeing Third Uncle Liang coming, Liang's mother, who had been sitting at the top, stood up to greet him, "Third Uncle."

This man is Liang's father's third uncle, a generation older than Liang's mother. He is 78 years old this year, but he is still in good health.

Third Uncle nodded and said, "Wanru, why did you ask me to come here?" He didn't have many opportunities to appear in public in his life, but every time he did, something big was bound to happen.

Liang's mother walked up to him and greeted him, "Please take a seat at the top first. I have something to announce."

Third Uncle suppressed his worries and doubts and finally sat on it.

Mother Liang looked at everyone in the room. She could see everyone's expression.

I don’t know how long it took.

She then spoke slowly, "I divorced Liang."

As soon as these words were spoken, it was like a thunderclap that shocked everyone and made them unable to recover.

"What?"

Everyone was shocked.

Boss Liang was the first to react. He frowned and accused, "Mom, you're already sixty, and you're still getting divorced?"

"What's going on? Even if you don't care about your own face, at least you should care about the faces of us children."

"If we tell others that we're already in our thirties or forties and our parents are divorced, how can we still maintain our dignity?"

Liang's mother was not surprised that she was criticized as soon as she said this. She looked at her eldest son, who was also her first son. As a new mother, she also had high expectations and maternal love for her eldest son.

But later, as time passed, these expectations and feelings gradually faded away.

"I'm the one getting a divorce." Liang's mother said calmly, "I'm not ashamed, so why should you be ashamed? If you really think I've brought shame upon you, then move out."

"Independent portal."

This time, Boss Liang suddenly fell silent.

Liang Lao San wanted to say something, but seeing that his eldest brother was silent, he also kept silent. However, he couldn't help but said, "Second brother, fourth brother, do you know about Mom's divorce?"

The spearhead was directed at Liang Qiurun and Liang Qiusong.

Liang Qiusong sneered, "Do you think Mom would hide such big news from you? If you had visited her in the hospital during the week she was in the hospital, she wouldn't have been kept in the dark."

Liang Laosan was so angry that he fell backwards. He chose to ignore the other party's ridicule and just asked, "You know why don't you persuade Mom?"

Liang Qiusong sneered, "What are you trying to persuade Mom about? Are you trying to persuade Mom to endure Dad, and then get beaten to death by Dad?"

As soon as these words fell, the surroundings became quiet again.

Uncle Liang was still confused. He asked, "What happened? Wanru, you've been married into the Liang family for forty-three years. We've always lived a good life. Why are you suddenly thinking of getting a divorce?"

Facing the questions from my third uncle.

Liang's mother spoke calmly, "This guy surnamed Liang got himself into a love affair and even had a bastard. To support his mistress and bastard, he came back and asked me for money. If I didn't give him any, he was going to strangle me to death."

As soon as these words fell, everyone around him gasped.

Liang's mother didn't seem to hear anything. "Then Liang and Bangjian got together again and were trapped in bed by the labor union, the Women's Federation, and the militia."

"What?"

This time, not only Third Uncle was shocked, but also Boss Liang and the others next to him were almost shocked.

"Where is my dad now?" Boss Liang asked anxiously.

It was hard to tell that he cared about Liang's father. The more he acted like this, the colder Liang's mother felt, like an ice ridge in the cold winter.

Boss Liang didn't know that his concerned question would reduce the pitiful amount of property that Liang's mother should have given him by three points.

Facing her eldest son's questioning, Liang's mother said calmly, "I don't know."

this--

The air became quiet.

"Then how did you get the divorce certificate?" Li Min asked the most crucial question directly.

Liang's mother was not surprised that she was so smart. Her third daughter-in-law used all her intelligence to plot against her own people.

"With a certificate of severing ties, the Civil Affairs Bureau can naturally issue a marriage certificate." Liang's mother glanced at her. "Or is it that you can't bear to part with your father-in-law? Do you want to continue being a family with him? That's fine too. You can go to the militia and find out where he's being held."

Even Liang Lao Da and his men didn't care about Liang's mother, who had raised them for so many years. How could they care about Liang's father? What's more, Liang's father was captured by the militia. For people like Liang Lao Da and his men, they wished to have as little relationship with Liang's father as possible.

Why?

Of course, it’s because I’m afraid of getting implicated.

So when Liang's mother asked this question, everyone fell silent. Liang Lao Da, who had been shouting the loudest, suddenly said awkwardly, "Mom, you're right. A troublemaker like my dad should be kept away from him."

Liang Laosan nodded in agreement.

Liang's mother didn't comment. She went to see her third uncle and asked, "Third uncle, do you have any questions? If not, I want to announce something else."

"What?"

My third uncle has not yet recovered from the shock of his previous divorce.

Liang's mother said again, "I want to divide the family."

"What?"

After hearing this, Liang Lao Da and Liang Lao San were the first to jump out, "Mom, you and Dad are divorced. From now on, we will be your elderly care. How can we split up the family? If we do, won't you be left alone?"

Liang's mother scoffed, "Even if we didn't split up, when your father beat me to death, you didn't even take me to the hospital, let alone visit me. Do you expect me to take care of you in my old age? Are you just waiting for me to die?"

These words were said so bluntly that the faces of Liang Lao Da and Liang Lao San turned pale instantly.

Unfortunately, Liang's mother acted as if she hadn't seen anything. She turned around and said to her uncle, "You are here too. Please help bear witness. From today on, our Liang family will be divided."

Third Uncle was still a little embarrassed, "Wanru, you have to think clearly, you are already alone after the divorce, if you split up the family, you will really become a lonely person."

Liang's mother said, "I think clearly."

"This family is a must." She didn't want to bear the burden of these unfilial children anymore.

She just wants to spend her old age quietly and alone.

Liang Lao Da and Liang Lao San, and even Chen Hongjiao and Li Min, all tried to persuade her, "Mom, we just lost Dad, we can't lose you too."

Liang's mother ignored her.

Li Min and the others are the direct beneficiaries, so they naturally won't let it go. They turn to Liang Qiurun and the others for help.

"Second brother, fourth brother, please help persuade mom not to split up the family."

Divide the family? What family should be divided? Who will provide for daily necessities after the family is divided? Who will bear the living expenses? What will happen to the cloth coupons, grain coupons and vegetable money?

Liang Qiusong, "I can't control it."

Liang Qiurun, "I respect my mother's opinion."

"You—" Liang Lao San was immediately dissatisfied and wanted to accuse her, but was interrupted by Liang's mother, "Enough, it has come to this point. I want to divide the family business, and you always blame others, and never think of blaming yourselves. Liang Qiuzhang, Liang Qiuye, you are also the ones who raised sons. I hope that in thirty years, your sons will treat you the same way!"

This is the greatest curse a mother can give to her child.

The expressions of Liang Lao Da and Liang Lao San immediately changed. "Mom, how can you say that?"

They naturally know that they are bastards and unfilial, but they don't want their sons to learn from their behavior in the future.

Liang's mother did not go to see them. She took out the list of property that she had made when she was in the hospital. Of course, this was the money that was visible, or the money in the account. As for the money in private, Liang's mother would not take out a penny to subsidize them.

"Third Uncle, please write a letter of separation. We will all put our fingerprints on it and it will be over."

Seeing that there was no turning back, Third Uncle started writing.

Boss Liang, who was standing nearby, also saw that the family had to be divided, so he said loudly, "Mom, we can divide the family. I'm the eldest son, the legitimate firstborn. I should get more property if the family is divided."

Liang's mother sneered and ignored him.

Pull out the inventory and "read."

Third Uncle took it and began to read it openly. "Currently, the Liang family only has one courtyard house left. Each family's belongings belong to each family, and the vacant room belongs to Qin Wanru. In addition, the Liang family has 800 yuan on their books. Of this, Qin Wanru's hospitalization and emergency treatment cost 120 yuan, which was paid by Liang Qiurun. Now, 120 yuan has been repaid from the books, leaving 680 yuan. Divide it into five parts, averaging 136 yuan per household."

As soon as these words fell, Liang Lao Da and Chen Hongjiao were the first to shout, "Impossible, how can the family only have so little money?"

Liang's mother threw the account book over and said, "Look."

"Any extra penny you find is yours."

Chen Hongjiao snatched the account book and after reading it, her face turned pale and red, "Mom, this is a fake account."

She refused to admit that the Liang family, as big as it was, could only have 800 yuan left. This was a huge sum of money for an ordinary family, but for the Liang family, it was just a drop in the bucket.

Liang's mother asked, "Is the food you eat fake too?"

She said calmly, "If you think it's too little, that's fine. Just make up for your expenses over the past fifteen years, and I'll naturally give you more."

Everyone suddenly fell silent, and Chen Hongjiao stopped talking.

Liang Laosan wanted to say something, but was stopped by Li Min. She saw clearly that if he continued to make a fuss, he might lose the more than 100 yuan.

Thinking of this, Li Min took a deep breath and asked, "Mom, after we split up, will we still support you?"

This guy always gets to the point.

Liang's mother said, "Even if I die, I won't let you bury me with peace of mind."

"I'm afraid of being buried by you unfilial sons. My coffin lid can't hold it down anymore."

Li Min didn't expect her mother-in-law to speak so harshly. She was simply trampling on their face. She could almost imagine what would happen after today.

The first and third wives of the Liang family were practically sprayed to death by spit when they went out.

Thinking of this, Li Min was trembling. After dividing the family and leaving the Liang family, could their three branches still achieve anything?

Unfortunately, Liang's mother didn't care at all.

"Sign and put your fingerprints on it, divide the family, and go your separate ways from now on."

Now, even if Boss Liang and the others didn't want to sign, they had to do it reluctantly when they got the 136 yuan.

Boss Liang wanted to throw the money away several times. What could he do with such a small amount of money? But his wife held him back.

"Mom, each room is its own room, what about the kitchen?"

Chen Hongjiao asked.

Mother Liang looked up at her and said, "Take away the dishes and chopsticks from each room. The big stove belongs to me."

As for these children not having a stove, what does it have to do with her?

You're such a grown-up, how could you starve yourself to death?

Chen Hongjiao pushed Shen Mingying, hoping that she would say something. If the family was to be divided, the second branch could also be separated.

Shen Mingying immediately agreed with her mother-in-law, "I have no problem with that. Qiu Song and I can take the children to the company cafeteria to eat."

This sentence made Chen Hongjiao feel depressed. She was so angry that she stared with her eyes wide open, but there was nothing she could do.

Unfortunately, Shen Mingying pretended not to see it.

"Third Uncle, please read it." Liang's mother seemed not to notice the witty exchange between her daughter-in-law and daughter-in-law. "After you finish reading, we'll go home."

She was too lazy to even look at it.

Third Uncle read the family division document all the way through. When he finished, he said, "That's basically it, Wanru. Don't you want to tell me who will support you in the future?"

Liang's mother shook her head. "If I can get through it, I'll get through it. If not, I'll just drink a bottle of Dichlorvos and be done with it."

When she was really too old to crawl, she didn't want to go to any child's house.

Jiang Meishu didn't know how others felt when she heard this, but she felt a little sad, sad for Liang's mother.

Despite meeting such a husband, she still gave birth to four sons, and raised them almost all by herself, but in the end, she was left with no one to take care of her in her old age.

She endured it again and again, but couldn't help but speak, "Mom will live with us from now on, and we will support her."

As soon as these words fell, everyone looked over.

Chen Hongjiao curled her lips.

Li Min sneered. This guy is a fool. All the money in the mother-in-law's hands was distributed to them. What is the point of having such an old lady go back?

Jiang Meishu was stared at by everyone. She was a little nervous, but she still spoke and continued, "We are foster mom. Wherever we eat, she eats. Wherever we are, she is there."

Liang Qiurun hummed, "My lover's meaning is my meaning."

When Liang's mother heard this, her eyes became hot. She turned her head away slightly and tears fell down. "Send me in." She trembled slightly and almost couldn't stand.

She didn't want to look at those children anymore.

The more I look at those kids, the worse I think they are.

She is not even as good as the daughter-in-law who came in halfway.

Jiang Meishu stepped forward to support her, "Go in and take a rest first."

Wait until they go in.

Chen Hongjiao said to Li Min, "Did you see that? That person who loves to show off is filial, which makes us look even more unfilial."

Li Min revealed her true colors for the first time. She sneered, "Who cares? What are you doing going back home, a lonely old lady in her sixties or seventies?"

Be an ancestor?

Liang Lao Da and Liang Lao San didn't think there was anything wrong with what their wives said. "Let's go, go to the kitchen and take away the dishes, otherwise we won't have anything to eat tonight."

inside the house.

Jiang Meishu had just helped Liang's mother sit down. Liang's mother calmed down a little. She stood up and went to the door, looking at the children outside, who were all going to divide the house and grab things.

She then closed the door, turned around, took out a passbook from under her pillow, and handed it to Jiang Meishu. "I thought, whoever is willing to take a poor old lady like me, I will give the passbook to him."

Jiang Meishu was surprised. She looked down and saw the zeros on the passbook. Her pupils shrank. "Mom."

"I can't have it."

He lowered his voice and said, "You keep it for yourself."

"Keep it." Liang's mother stuffed the passbook into her pocket, "As if you are willing to accept my gift."

"Xiao Jiang, thank you."
