"Mom, Aihua is pregnant again and is very picky. She only eats good food and won't eat anything bad. Zhaodi is still young and everything costs money. I'm the only one who earns money at home. My salary is used by all of us, so how can I give you any money?"
Lin Tong also said: "My salary is with Meimei."
After hearing this, Shen Hongyan was furious: "You two are so unfilial! Listen to what you are saying! The person lying here is your father. Do you have consciences that have been eaten by dogs? How dare you not take the money!"
Lin Dong was unhappy when he heard this: "Mom, please don't say such harsh words, okay? What do you mean we won't have a good life if we don't take the money? We have already separated. I can't just give you all the money and then not support my wife and children."
Lin Tong nodded: "My father-in-law has been having trouble with his legs and feet these days, and the money for his medicine is all from my salary."
Lin Dong said again: "Mom, it's already this time, why don't you take out the private money you have? Lin Tong and I have been holding our wages in your hands for these years."
Lin Dong and Lin Tong dropped out of school a long time ago. When they were young, they helped out at home for a few years. As soon as they were needed outside, they immediately went out to work.
They didn't take much of the money they earned over the years, it all stayed in Shen Hongyan's hands.
Shen Hongyan loves to hide money, so she must have more than a thousand yuan in her hands now.
"..." Shen Hongyan choked when she heard her eldest son's words. Her eyes were erratic and she was obviously guilty.
“I… don’t have any money!”
"How is that possible!" Lin Dong didn't believe it: "Mom, Dad is like this now, if you don't spend money now, when are you going to spend it?"
Lin Dong thought that Shen Hongyan was too stingy and was reluctant to take out the money.
Lin Tong also coaxed him: "You can earn money again if you lose it. Dad's health is the most important thing now."
No matter what her two sons said or how they persuaded her, Shen Hongyan only had one thing to say: "No money!"
Lin Dong became impatient and asked, "How can there be no money? Where did the money go?"
Shen Hongyan felt guilty: "Didn't your father and I talk about starting a business some time ago? At that time, we thought that if we invested more money, we would make more money, so we invested all the money in the family."
"What?!" Lin Dong and Lin Tong gasped: "All of them smashed in?!"
The two brothers still don’t know what happened in the village some time ago.
"Then sell all those chickens quickly! If you don't sell them, how will you get the money?"
"All...all dead."
“…”
Shen Hongyan told them how they were deceived into buying inferior chickens, how the chickens got fowl plague, and how they were eventually infected with the flu by the chickens and were sent to the hospital.
The two brothers were so angry that they didn't know what to say.
When they first heard that Chen Hongyan and Lin Yubao wanted to do business, they brothers disagreed.
They still know their own parents' abilities. They have no education, no skills, no intelligence, and no cleverness. How can they do business well?
They talked to him and tried to persuade him, but he just wouldn't listen and insisted on having his own way.
Now it's okay, right? The compensation was huge, and their family lost most of their life savings.
Ten thousand dollars!!!
Can't I just eat and drink something with this money? It's all gone down the drain!
Lin Dong was so angry that he wanted to curse, but the other person was his mother, so he could only grit his teeth.
In the end, there was no other choice, so Lin Donglin and Tong Qiang collected 500 yuan for Shen Hongyan.
What could they do? They hadn’t signed a severance agreement like the second and third wives. Even if they split up, Lin Yubao was still their father, and he still had to take care of things.
