Chapter 15: You're responsible for your own mistakes
Although Qi Hong always tolerated it as much as possible in the past, he actually knew very well what his son and daughter-in-law's attitude towards him was and what their plans were. He knew exactly what they were doing.
So, before Qi Xu got married yesterday, he collected all his valuable belongings and gave half of them to Qi Xu as a dowry.
Now, even if Li Jinyan and her family turned the shabby house upside down, they couldn't find anything valuable.
Qi Xu looked at Qi Hong, who was sitting opposite him, with his eyes drooping and looking extremely dejected. He knew that his grandfather was still reluctant to let go of his uncle's family.
"Old Captain, forget it. It's better not to have a son like this. You still have Qi girl, Monkey, and us in the future."
Jiang Boqun looked at the younger generation next to him and saw that no one dared to speak to comfort him, so he took the initiative to pat Qi Hong on the shoulder and advised him to think more positively.
Qi Xu's hands began to calculate again in her sleeves, and the result pleased her very much. The divination told her that the retribution of Li Jinyan's family would come before the end of the day.
Knowing the consequences, she was obviously in a much better mood, and on the way back in the ox cart she was even in the mood to appreciate the scenery along the way.
After all this back and forth, everyone's stomachs started to growl.
In order to speed up the cooking process, not only Liang Jing but also Qi Xu and Jiang Hongyi were in the kitchen.
It was the first time that Qi Xu saw him cook. He didn't expect that his cooking movements were so skillful. He cut the vegetables into pieces and arranged them in a row with just a flick of the knife. The sizes were even almost the same and very even.
As she read on, she realized that dicing was nothing, and shredding was the real skill. Then there were shredded potatoes, shredded carrots, and shredded wood ear mushrooms...
The more Qi Xu looked, the more frightened she became. There was really no harm without comparison. She turned her head to look at the vegetable leaves that had been chopped into pieces in her hand and wanted to find a crack in the ground to crawl into immediately.
"Ahem, I, I'd better wash the vegetables, hehe."
She honestly felt that the vegetable leaves she had chopped into pieces were only fit to be mixed into pig food as a side dish. After she said that, she immediately gathered the vegetables she had cut with a knife, ran to the pigpen in the backyard and threw them into the stone trough.
After returning to the kitchen, she pretended nothing had happened, filled a basin with clean water, and squatted on the ground to wash the vegetables in the basket one by one.
Jiang Hongyi stared at her squatting figure for several seconds out of the corner of his eye. Although he did not stop cutting vegetables, he slowed down.
Finally, he put down the knife and went outside to get a small wooden stool and placed it behind Qi Xu. He poked Qi Xu's arm and motioned her to sit down and wash the vegetables.
It was a typical example of someone bringing a pillow just when you're sleepy. Because Liang Jing was still cooking, she gave up her idea of teasing Jiang Hongyi and sat on the bench without saying a word.
She didn't say anything out loud, just mouthed the word "thank you". She didn't care whether Jiang Hongyi understood it or not, and lowered her head to continue working hard to speed up the washing of vegetables.
With the efforts of the three people, the family's lunch was successfully prepared, including eight dishes, one soup and a large pot of multi-grain rice with cornmeal.
Qi Hong ate very little at the table, so little that Qi Xu couldn't stand it anymore and took the initiative to put food into the old man's bowl.
Qi Hong has always cherished food. Once the food is in his bowl, he will eat every grain.
"Poor thing, we are so pitiful~ My father is going to cut off all ties with his own son just for a married bitch~"
"Wow, wow, wow~ Grandpa~ I will be very good, as good as Qi Xu~ Grandpa, please don't abandon our family~ Wow, wow~"
"Dad~ Dad~ I am your biological son~ Once Qi Xu gets married, she will belong to someone else's family. Your son is your support~ I don't want to sever ties with you~ Dad~"
Qi Xu and the others had just finished lunch and cleaned up the kitchen when they heard a burst of ghostly howling sounds coming from outside the courtyard gate.
She closed her eyes, frowned, and looked speechless. These annoying guys knew how to make people feel upset.
She shook her head and rubbed her temples with one hand, trying to control her throbbing blood vessels and nerves, speechless.
"Dad, please come out and see your son."
"Grandpa, Dad knows he was wrong~ Wuuwuwu~ He knows he was wrong, please forgive him, wuuwuwu~"
When the people outside saw that Qi Xu and the others didn't open the door, the crying and shouting became louder by several degrees, one after another. To call them a symphony would be an exaggeration.
"Dad~ Are you planning to abandon your son and his family? Are you going to follow your granddaughter to eat delicious food and drink spicy drinks? Dad~"
Qi Xu listened to this shameless operation and was afraid that this family was planning to slander Qi Hong, saying black as white and white as black.
She opened the door angrily, and just as she was about to lose her temper, she saw that the black energy on their foreheads became even thicker. She estimated that retribution would be revealed within two hours.
Thinking of this, she was not so eager to refute, "Yo yo yo yo ~ It's my uncle's family ~"
"After all these years, how come I didn't know that Grandpa had neglected you? If you hadn't said this morning that you wanted to take back the shabby house, would Grandpa still be living in the Jiang family?"
"Uncle, Auntie, haven't you taken Grandpa's monthly government subsidy over the years?"
"Get out of here, you little bitch! You have no right to speak! Grandpa, Dad, Dad!"
Li Jinyan raised her head, sneered at her and rolled her eyes, then continued to howl in agony, determined to get Qi Hong to take charge.
"Just keep quiet and let everyone judge. I, Qi Hong, have done my duty well enough over the years."
"The old house was given to your family to live in, while Qi and I lived in the shabby house you didn't want. Every month, I didn't see you give me money to honor me. Instead, you used my allowance to gamble. Now you won't let me live in that shabby house. The old house was secretly transferred to your own name. What do you still need me as your father for?"
"Why? Because I'm still alive and you haven't paid for all the money and tickets yet?"
"Don't worry, I'll have the captain issue a certificate this afternoon to sever ties with you. Even if you die kneeling here now, it has nothing to do with me."
Qi Hong blurted out everything that had been in his heart for so many years, walked into the yard without looking back, completely unwilling to listen to their continued nonsense.
Qi Chenggang wanted to act more pitiful, so he knelt down and moved forward inch by inch on his knees.
"Stop, uncle, don't worry about it. Grandpa has given me all the money he saved as a dowry. You and aunt don't have to worry about it~"
Qi Xu didn't want them to continue bothering the old man, so he stretched out his arms and stood in front of them like a roadblock. He spoke with a raised tone and a smug look on his face, trying to make them hate him.
"You little bitch! You have no shame!"
Qi Baihua stood up angrily and wanted to pounce on her, intending to tear her apart, "Ahhhhhhhhh!"
"My feet..."
Just when she was halfway there, she tripped over her left foot and stumbled. She heard a "crunch" sound, accompanied by Qi Baihua's miserable scream as she fell. She concluded that her ankle bone must be broken.
"Mom! Dad! It hurts! It hurts so much!"
This sudden situation made the two people who were howling breathlessly the previous second jump up as if nothing had happened the next second, walked quickly to Qi Baihua and helped her up.
Without caring about Qi Xu, the family of three walked back in a panic, supporting each other.
"Ouch! Damn it, which bastard dug this hole? Isn't this just to hurt people? Ouch! It hurts so much!"
Before Qi Xu reached the gate of the courtyard, she heard Li Jinyan's cry of pain again, and her steps back to the courtyard became lighter.
This is just the beginning, just an appetizer to whet their appetite. They will have a hard time in the next two hours. They will suffer the consequences of their own actions. Heaven will only take care of them slowly, bit by bit, and step by step.
