"Alright, Wu Chi, you go."
His resolute face turned incredibly gloomy. Li Laosan had no courage to speak and had to carefully appease Li Wuchi.
Only after Li Wuchi's figure disappeared from sight did Li Laosan dare to breathe a sigh of relief. Even the strong-willed Li Laosan couldn't help but let out a sigh of emotion.
"What a terrible thing!"
Wang Yiting, standing to the side, also sighed; they simply couldn't understand it.
Everything was fine before, how did it suddenly turn out like this? I've never seen such stingy people. They even asked for their money back after I lent them money. They even gave their daughter to Li Wuchi.
Thinking of Yang Guowei and Zhou Gangshu, Li Laosan and Wang Yiting had nothing to say.
It was because those two were good-for-nothings that they asked Li Wuchi for money. If they were any more capable, they wouldn't have ended up like this, being chased by someone to repay the money, who even came to their home.
No, Li Fuyi is even less promising. She only knows how to grab onto these three people, but doesn't know how to grab onto more capable people.
Everyone they could think of was blamed by Li Laosan and Wang Yiting, but they forgot to examine their own role in the blame.
"No way, I'm going to find Li Daqiang and settle the score. How dare Li Daqiang raise a son like Li Wuchi?"
"Honey, let's go."
Wang Yiting didn't find anything wrong with what Li Laosan said.
That's true. If Li Daqiang hadn't failed to teach them properly, they would have ended up like this.
The two men stormed over to Li Daqiang, but were stunned when they saw his wife, who was heavily pregnant.
"Li Daqiang's wife, what's wrong with you...?"
Before he could finish speaking, Li Daqiang grabbed a stick and stood guard against them.
"Li Laosan and Wang Yiting, what are you doing here? Get out of here right now!"
Li Daqiang knew that Li Wuchi was at Li Laosan's house, and he was afraid that Li Laosan and Wang Yiting had come to cause trouble.
"No, no, Brother Daqiang, my wife and I just came to chat with you guys, that's all."
Li Daqiang swung his stick again and again, and Li Laosan and Wang Yiting quickly dodged and retreated from Li Daqiang's yard.
"Get lost, I have nothing to discuss with you."
Once the courtyard gate closed, Li Daqiang wouldn't give Li Laosan and Wang Yiting a friendly look. He wouldn't forget that if it weren't for Li Fuyi, he would never have gone to the production team. If he hadn't gone, his leg would still be fine, and he wouldn't have lost a son.
Now that his wife is finally pregnant, Li Daqiang cherishes this pregnancy more than anyone else.
The good thing is that Yao Dong didn't give Li Wuchi a single penny of the money he lost in the financial crisis. Even if they had only had a daughter, they would still have been able to find her a husband.
Such a lack of consideration eventually angered Li Laosan.
"Li Daqiang, don't go too far. Li Wuchi is getting married tomorrow. If you know what's good for you, listen to us. If you don't, we'll make Li Wuchi marry into the family, so that after you die, you won't even have anyone to hold the brazier for you."
The expected scene did not occur; Li Daqiang was even calmer than he had imagined.
"Oh, then welcome."
After saying that, Li Daqiang turned around. The wall around Li Daqiang's yard was high and sturdy, making it impossible for Li Laosan to get back in. He could only helplessly shout from outside.
"Li Daqiang, you shameless old man! Li Wuchi is your son, can't you do something about him? He comes to my house every day to freeload off me..."
Before he could finish speaking, the door opened from the inside, revealing the familiar Li Daqiang.
"Li Laosan, aren't you afraid that if you keep shouting here, Li Wuchi will hear you?"
He wouldn't even call him "son" anymore; Li Daqiang simply referred to him as Li Wuchi. He understood Li Wuchi's drastically changed personality better than anyone else.
"Li Daqiang, you..."
Li Laosan nearly got his fingers caught in the door, quickly stepped back, and then slunk away.
Li Daqiang is right. If he continues to cause trouble, and if Li Wuchi hears those words, who knows what might happen?
Li Daqiang, inside the courtyard, sighed regretfully before continuing with his work.
When it comes to marriage, who understands Li Wuchi's situation better than him? Li Daqiang's answer is no. Under these circumstances, Li Daqiang knows why Li Wuchi married Li Fuyi.
It was precisely because he understood this that Li Daqiang was so worried. If Li Wuchi could go to such lengths with someone he used to like, how could he, as the head of the household, possibly fare any better?
But no matter what, he won't just sit and wait to die.
Li Wuchi himself was unable to have children, so it was understandable that he gave up on procreation. However, it was impossible for Li Wuchi to harm his descendants.
"From now on, don't open the gate."
Li Daqiang's wife responded, a hint of worry flashing in her eyes. As a mother, how could she not worry about her child?
However, Li Daqiang was unwilling, and she dared not show it too obviously.
However, remembering what Li Laosan said—that Li Wuchi was getting married to Li Fuyi tomorrow, and that Li Daqiang's wife had gone inside—
She is a mother, and naturally she should give her son a wedding gift, even though he can no longer be her son.
Everything proceeded smoothly. This time, the banquet was not a grand affair; only Li Laosan and his family ate together.
Li Wuchi ate while laughing, a laugh that was particularly chilling, sending shivers down the spines of Li Laosan and the others.
"Little sister Fuyi, you should eat more."
With a gentle yet slightly eerie gesture, Li Wuchi placed a piece of food on Li Fuyi's plate. He didn't eat the rest, but instead propped his head up and watched Li Fuyi eat, his eyes seeming as if he wanted to devour her.
Li Fuyi ate her food in small bites, pondering why her prey had changed so much.
