Zhao Qiang really didn't want to keep going back and forth over this little thing, lest the neighbors laugh at him.
Zhao Gang jumped up and shouted, "I disagree!"
The eldest brother looked at him suspiciously. When did the third brother start caring so much about the second brother?
Facing the gazes of the crowd, Zhao Gang forced a smile and said, "Well, what I mean is, severing ties is a serious matter, shouldn't we discuss it properly?"
Upon hearing this, Zhao Liang looked at him mockingly and said, "Don't think I don't know what you're up to!"
I advise you to have some self-awareness. What kind of scum I don't know? It's just that two old folks are blind and easily fooled by you!
"Second brother, what do you mean? Why are you calling me trash?"
Zhao Gang was very dissatisfied with this.
However, Zhao's father came up with a solution.
"Alright! Shut up, all of you! Second brother, if you want to sever ties, that's fine, but agree to one condition: you won't have to pay for my retirement!"
Zhao's mother was displeased upon hearing this, but she immediately calmed down when she met Zhao's father's warning gaze.
"Have your younger brother work in the factory, and introduce him to the Bai family while you're at it."
Once this is done, you'll have repaid our debt of gratitude for raising you! From now on, I'll pretend you're not my son!
Zhao Liang sneered repeatedly, finding it utterly ridiculous! He turned his head and glared coldly at the Zhao couple.
"You'd better put your minds to it. The Bai family isn't so easily fooled. Do you really think your son, who only knows how to play dumb and use sweet words, has any great abilities?"
The Bai family needs people who can listen to instructions and get things done, not lazybones, and certainly not people who are all talk and no action!
If you ruin her plans, do you think things will turn out well for you two?
Don't let it all come to nothing! The Bai family could easily kill your precious son with a single finger!
This was something they had discussed before. Sister Bai said that the Zhao family, being so greedy, wouldn't give up easily. Only by scaring them out of their wits and letting them know that they would suffer if things didn't go smoothly, could they successfully obtain the signed and fingerprinted letter of severance.
The Zhao family members turned pale with fright upon hearing this. They were just ordinary people; although greedy, they weren't brainless. They dared not offend the Bai family.
Zhao's father wanted to argue, but when he saw his carefree third son, he thought about how he had accomplished nothing, how he had to get a job by pulling strings, and how the factory director often came to talk to him. He also thought about how much he had suffered to clean up his messes.
Even if he liked his son very much, he couldn't bring himself to say that his son was capable.
I thought the third brother was sweet-talking and good at winning people over. Although he wasn't very good at getting things done, he was still likable. Maybe those higher-ups would like him too?
Besides, he's just a factory manager; the work is done by his subordinates. He only needs to give orders.
They knew what kind of personality their third son had, no matter how unwilling they were to admit it.
Since the Bai family dislikes flatterers and prefers honest and hardworking people, they might genuinely look down on the third son...
Zhao Qiang had pieced together the truth from their fragmented words, and he looked at his father and mother angrily.
He keeps saying that he is the pillar of the family, but whenever there is a benefit, he only thinks about the third son!
"Mom and Dad! How could you do this? Don't you know what kind of person our third son is?"
How could this not be his responsibility? With my meager monthly salary, how am I supposed to support my entire family?
"I'd rather have it!"
Upon hearing this, Zhao's father's eyes lit up. "Yes, the third son isn't good enough, but the eldest is!"
