Every day after that.
Xu Huaiyuan and Wang Chungui couldn't help but watch the variety show, watching it almost like self-torture.
They looked at Jiang Tong's current happiness, while their former little family was in ruins. Xu Huaiyuan was busy currying favor with the Ke family every day, and Wang Chungui was glued to the live stream, her mental state getting worse.
Xu Shengfu spent his days eating, drinking, and having fun, not caring about the feelings of the mother and son. As long as he had money, he was content. He accepted the departure of his daughter-in-law, Jiang Tong, but the mother and son were unable to accept it. Wang Chungui even started to act a little crazy.
She despised Jiang Tong the most, hating that she was prettier and more capable than herself, and that she had taken away her son. So after marriage, she disliked and suppressed Jiang Tong in every way, treated her like a maid, and deliberately sowed discord between Jiang Tong and her child.
Who knows what will happen?
Jiang Tong actually dared to get a divorce and even ran off with five million yuan from the family!
Since she left.
The Xu family's stable little family was completely destroyed. Wang Chungui stared blankly at the TV every day, watching Jiang Tong being surrounded by a group of people. They lived in a beautiful villa and would play games together. She watched how Jiang Tong's new man doted on her, and the two often leaned against each other, or smiled at each other, or danced under the starry sky on the terrace.
Jiang Tong's life now completely exceeded Wang Chungui's imagination. She muttered to herself, "How is this possible? This is impossible. Jiang Tong is just a used woman, a slut who slept with my son. How could she be living so well? How could this man treat her so well? Impossible, impossible..."
Wang Chungui stared blankly at the screen, sitting motionless on the sofa.
Xu Shengfu initially scolded her for being crazy, saying, "They're already divorced, our son has remarried and found a rich girl, isn't that great? Don't look at Jiang Tong's affairs, what are you doing here all day long?"
Wang Chungui ignored his insults and continued to watch the live broadcast of the variety show every day.
He was muttering to himself.
Xu Shengfu thought Wang Chungui was indeed mentally ill, so he forcibly turned off the TV, which caused her to go crazy, and the old couple got into a fight.
The TV was smashed too.
Wang Chungui took out her phone and continued watching, refusing to eat or take a bath, just lounging on the sofa, muttering curses against Jiang Tong every day, saying that she would not have a good end.
Xu Shengfu finally couldn't take it anymore, slapped Wang Chungui twice, and called his son over, saying, "If you don't come back to see your mother, she might as well not live! She's acting crazy every day, I think we should just send her to a mental hospital!"
That was an extremely ruthless statement.
Xu Huaiyuan has also been in a daze lately. He knows he shouldn't watch, but he still can't help wanting to watch. He has the same symptoms as his mother, but at least he is better at acting than his mother. When watching live broadcasts, he can still take the time to play the role of a good husband and a filial son-in-law. He is expressionless when he receives a call from his father.
He coldly replied, "Then give it to her. Do whatever she wants with it."
He'd had enough of his difficult mother; he was ready to let her go crazy or die if she wanted.
Xu Shengfu couldn't believe it. He felt he could be cold and ruthless, but not his son. This son was raised by him and Wang Chungui, and they were counting on him to repay them and take care of them in their old age. If he were allowed to treat his mother so casually, his position as a father would be in jeopardy.
He immediately adopted a fatherly stance and angrily rebuked Xu Huaiyuan, "Look at what you're saying! How dare you, as a son, say such things?! What, you're disgusted with your mother now? Don't want to take care of her anymore? Are you going to abandon your father too? Let me tell you, stop dreaming! If you dare to abandon us, I'll sue you for neglecting your parents!"
Xu Shengfu threatened Xu Huaiyuan, saying that if he didn't come back and control his mother, he would have her cause trouble at his company and his wife's house next time!
Xu Huaiyuan was so angry he almost vomited blood. Having such parents was truly suffocating for him. In the past, Jiang Tong would help him deal with things and shield him, but after Jiang Tong divorced him, without her to mediate, he had to face these troublesome parents on his own every time.
He was nearly driven mad. Hearing his father's words, he started arguing back, "Do you even treat me like a son? Every single day, you're just holding me back! Can't you let me live in peace for a bit?! I'm already exhausted enough!"
Xu Shengfu's temper flared up as soon as he heard this, and he yelled into the phone, "What nonsense are you spouting?! Say it again! You're tired? Who isn't tired? I'm tired of taking care of you, this crazy mother, every day! You're useless and can't live a good life, so you blame us? If you were even a little bit more capable, would you be so pathetic today?"
He spoke bluntly, grabbing Xu Huaiyuan and beating him into submission, saying he was a good-for-nothing, "You can't even manage your own woman! You let Ke Rou and her family of three act like bullies over you, and who can you blame for your own trouble? And about Jiang Tong, you have the ability to cheat, but not the ability to clean things up, and you don't even know how to coax people. Isn't the divorce from Jiang Tong your own fault?!"
Xu Shengfu said that he could cheat without anyone finding fault with him, and he could also teach his mother a lesson so that she wouldn't dare to say a word if he cheated. In the end, it's because her son is incompetent!
That's why my life has turned out like this.
He spoke arrogantly, not realizing there was anything wrong with what he said.
Wang Chungui, with her sharp ears, overheard this and immediately turned to question Xu Shengfu, "You really did cheat on me? Was it that nanny from last time? You're going to die!"
The elderly couple started fighting again.
The banging was so loud that everything in the house was smashed, which scared the neighbors so much that they called the police.
Xu Huaiyuan eventually went to take his parents home with a dark face, his hands trembling with anger the whole time. The three of them argued and tore at each other when they got home.
My once cozy little home is now completely ruined.
The place was a mess.
Wang Chungui, covered in bruises, hid in her bedroom and burst into tears, cursing others as she did so.
Xu Shengfu stormed out in anger, slamming the door behind him.
Xu Huaiyuan looked around, feeling exhausted. The memories of happily decorating their new home with Jiang Tong before their marriage were still vivid in his mind. Jiang Tong didn't like him drinking, but after learning that he had developed a love for drinking, she still arranged a liquor cabinet for him, only limiting his intake. She also chose the sofa and coffee table.
When Hanhan and Peipei were born, Xu Huaiyuan was moved to tears by their birth. Peipei was clever and mischievous, Hanhan was quiet and obedient, and Jiang Tong was busy at home.
Xu Huaiyuan didn't know when it started, but Jiang Tong became more and more silent. It seemed to be shortly after their marriage, after their child was born. Although their daughter was cute, she was really noisy. It was unavoidable for a baby to cry, and he also disliked the poop and pee, so he was unwilling to change their daughter's diapers.
After that, he would take the opportunity to find excuses, such as working overtime, rushing to meet business deadlines, socializing, or going on business trips to other cities.
He said it was for work, but actually he was out drinking, getting massages, and having fun with his business associates.
Jiang Tong's eyes grew increasingly dim and lifeless. Ever since she gave birth to her daughter, she had been very resistant to his advances. He wouldn't even kiss her on the cheek, let alone be affectionate.
After their marriage, the two were more like roommates living together.
