If Ke Qiangbang hadn't been standing by her side, Li Ruyun would have already gone hysterical. What kind of son did she raise? He didn't speak up for her at all, and even sided with outsiders. He's a real scoundrel.
A flash of hatred crossed Li Ruyun's eyes. Ke Shunyi waited until his mother finished speaking before speaking, "Mom, have you forgotten? When Grandpa and Grandma transferred the house to Uncle's family, they said it in front of everyone in the family."
Furthermore, to make up for it, my dad and third uncle each gave 1000 yuan. Mom, you haven't forgotten all of this, have you?
Ke Qiangbang's mind suddenly went blank. Yes, his wife had been nagging him about the house every day for the past few days, and he had completely forgotten that his father had given them 1,000 yuan back then.
Li Ruyun was furious. "Ke Shunyi, are you even my son? How dare you take the side of outsiders? Do you know how big your uncle's house is? How expensive are houses these days? What can you buy with 1,000 yuan? Huh? If 1,000 yuan could buy that, your mother would have bought it long ago."
Ke Shunyi continued to undermine her, "Mom, a few years ago, 1,000 yuan could have bought a small courtyard. Do you remember what you said back then?"
Li Ruyun glared angrily, but Ke Shunyi didn't stop. "Mom, you said the company provides housing, so wouldn't it be a waste not to use it? Why do we have to spend our own money to buy a house? Wouldn't it be better to save the money?"
Li Ruyun...
She felt a tightness in her chest, as if her whole body was blocked. That brat, he really says everything! All those years of whispering sweet nothings in Bangzi's ear had been for nothing. "Ke Shunyi, what exactly do you want?"
Ke Shunyi suddenly felt very bored. How could his mother be this kind of person? He pulled the blanket over himself from head to toe. "I don't want to do anything, but I am your son, and a son will naturally learn from his parents."
How you treat my grandparents now is how I will teach my younger siblings to treat you when I grow up.
After saying that, he turned over and ignored everyone.
Li Ruyun's face turned deathly pale in an instant. Ke Qiangbang felt a chill run through him from head to toe. He felt that even the cold winter wind and snow were not as cold as his heart. In an instant, every little detail from when his parents found him and his older brother was slowly pulled out from the depths of his memory.
And it seems the old man remembered all the little things he had done for his second wife over the years. Things he had deliberately ignored before were suddenly recalled.
Looking at the woman in front of him now, Ke Qiangbang, who had never hit a woman before, raised his hand high and slapped Li Ruyun across the face.
Li Ruyun was still reeling from her son's words when she was suddenly stunned by Ke Qiangbang's slap. If she hadn't been holding onto the bedside, she would have fallen to the ground.
Li Ruyun looked at Ke Qiangbang in disbelief. "Ke Qiangbang, how dare you hit me? Huh? What right do you have to hit me?"
Ke Shunyi had already sat up in bed. He hadn't expected his father to make a move. Seeing his mother's posture as if she was about to fight his father, he immediately hugged her from behind. When had Li Ruyun ever suffered such a loss? Naturally, she wouldn't stand for it.
Ke Qiangbang's expression turned cold. "Li Ruyun, I want a divorce."
Suddenly, the whole room fell silent.
After a while, Li Ruyun seemed to realize what was happening. She burst into laughter, looking at Ke Qiangbang with a gloomy expression. "Ke Qiangbang, a piece of trash like you wants a divorce? Ha! If it weren't for your decent family background, would I have married you in the first place?"
"What? Did you think you were the second son of a high-ranking official? That everyone would respect you? Let me tell you, I've had enough of this kind of life. Fine, let's get a divorce. I'll be better off without you, Ke Qiangbang."
Ke Shunyi was now in a bad mood. He just wanted his parents to reflect on their behavior towards his grandparents, not to get them divorced.
Looking at Li Ruyun, who seemed to have gone mad, Ke Qiangbang felt a mix of emotions. So this was what Li Ruyun was really like? He gave a self-deprecating laugh. He really was a good-for-nothing. He used to be so glad that he had married a good wife.
He's much better than his sister-in-law. What kind of person is his sister-in-law? A complete snob. He never imagined his own was even more terrifying—a venomous snake.
The sound of rummaging through drawers and cabinets brought Ke Qiangbang back to his senses. Li Ruyun frantically took all the family's money and stuffed it into a small bundle. "You look down on me, don't you? I won't argue with you. The children are yours; I risked my life to give birth to them. You're not losing out by exchanging them for your money, are you?"
The three children were sitting in a row on their eldest brother's bed, awakened by the loud noise of their parents arguing. This was the first time they had ever witnessed their parents fighting. The second daughter, Ke Yufeng, sat quietly to the side, saying nothing.
She was already 12 years old, and there were some things she understood. In particular, that day when she passed by her uncle's house with her mother, she saw through the crack in the door that a thatched shed had been built under the eaves of her uncle's house, and she saw her grandmother, with a withered face, crawl out of the thatched shed.
The scene was absolutely shocking. But her mother tightly covered her mouth, preventing her from making a sound. She even pulled her away, finding a secluded place to warn her that she couldn't tell anyone about this. At that moment, the perfect image of her mother in her heart completely crumbled.
"Waaaaah..." The third son, Ke Zhongyi, burst into tears. Li Ruyun paused in packing her things, but she didn't stop. If these kids weren't filial to her in the future, what was the point of raising them? She wasn't going to be that sucker.
Tang Yue ignored the ongoing commotion at Ke Qiangbang's house, but she was surprised to see that the two older children had surprisingly sound values. It was just that their unfilial parents had been too harsh on them.
