Upon hearing the words "braised pork," Qian's eyes flashed with disdain.
She looked at Qiu Dazhi and said sarcastically:
"With the money you earn from copying books, you probably can't even afford tuition, yet you're thinking of making braised pork for your mother? Can you even do that?"
People should have self-awareness.
Qiu Dazhi clenched his fists: "Never underestimate a young man's potential!"
Recently, his self-esteem has been repeatedly trampled on by Ms. Qian, and he cannot accept it every time he hears such words.
When Yang heard Qian insult her most beloved son, she was also furious.
She turned her gaze to Qiu Dayong.
"Dayong, return the money to Dazhi."
Don't think your mother doesn't know; the ginseng you bought for me was fake.
"Dazhi's education costs money, and his mother is counting on him to become a noblewoman and enjoy wealth and luxury."
Just as Qiu Dayong was about to refuse, he heard Madam Qian sneer, "A Lady of Imperial Decree? Mother, you're dreaming."
What do you mean that ginseng is fake? Aren't you questioning Dayong's filial piety?
As an elder, it's one thing for you to be unfair to everyone, but why do you always try to pin the blame on us?
"You want money? No way!"
Qiu Dazhi: "Third sister-in-law, say no more!"
Qiu Dayu leaned against the door frame, his mind focused on only one thing: he was determined to get the money today.
"You..." Madam Yang's chest heaved with anger, "Dayong, I want you to divorce Qian Shi, divorce her!"
Qiu Dayong glanced at Qiu Dazhi with displeasure: "Mother, back then, you were the one who said that Qian was gentle and virtuous and wanted me to marry her."
Now that we're doing well, you want me to divorce you? Aren't you jealous of our happiness?
I'm busy running errands every day. Without Qian Shi, who will take care of you in the future?
"Is it possible to expect your two sons to be filial?"
Madam Yang coughed a few times: "Back then, Madam Qian said that her mother was an old hag. What's the point of keeping such a disobedient and unfilial woman around?"
“If we don’t keep her, who will? Can you take care of my daily life? You’re getting old, you should think more positively and not get angry over such trivial things. Getting angry is bad for your health. Look at your health, what if you can’t catch your breath…”
"Third Brother, shut up!" Qiu Dazhi shouted sharply.
"You..." Madam Yang was really angered by Qiu Dayong's words.
She rolled her eyes, gasping for breath, her chest aching terribly.
Finally, she lowered her hands and said nothing more.
“Mother…” Qiu Dazhi’s heart skipped a beat. He quickly touched Yang’s breath and was overcome with grief.
"Third brother and third sister-in-law, are you satisfied now?"
Qiu Dayu suddenly looked at Yang Shi, his expression unreadable.
"Mother, what's wrong, Mother?" Qiu Dayong followed Qiu Dazhi's movements, touching Yang's nose to check her breath, only to find that his mother was no longer breathing. "She's gone, Mother is gone..."
"Ah? Dead?" Madam Qian began to wail at the top of her lungs. "Mother... how could you just leave like that..."
Qiu Dayong followed closely behind Qian Shi, and began to wail and waile. "Mother... Dazhi, Dayu, you two heartless people! It wasn't easy for me to raise you, and now that I'm leaving, why aren't you crying..."
Qiu Dazhi's grief dissipated, leaving only desolation.
"Third brother, that money was borrowed from my sister and fifth brother, a debt I swallowed whole. If you return it now, I will forgive and forget..."
Qiu Dayong stopped crying. "Otherwise, what will you do?" The money is already in his hands; there's no reason for him to give it back.
"I..." Qiu Dazhi, a frail scholar, didn't know what to do and looked to Qiu Dayu for help.
Qiu Dayu retorted, "Otherwise, get out of the Qiu family!"
