Although Zhao Xingjia felt that the conditions proposed by Ma Xiulan were simply abnormal, that he had to give her his money and have her work at home, and that he would not be able to marry a wife, this was the only time for his mother to give in. He could just agree to it first and regret it later.
That's why he risked his arm getting caught and blocked the door that Ma Xiulan was about to close: "Mom, I agree to everything you said just now."
Ma Xiu Lan looked at Zhao Xingjia's eyes rolling around and could tell at a glance that he was not sincere.
"Okay, then let's write an agreement, and then we'll go find your factory leader to oversee it. If you don't follow the agreement, I'll complain to your leader. Then I'll go to your finance department and make it clear that I'll be collecting your salary every month from now on."
Seeing Ma Xiulan's serious expression, Zhao Xingjia couldn't help but complain, "Are you my real mother?"
Ma Xiulan ignored him, wishing she could not give birth to such a barbecued pork. She just stared at him coldly: "Sign or not? If not, get out. Don't come to me again in the future."
Zhao Xingjia was conflicted and hesitant. If he signed the contract, he would become his mother's slave completely. It would be better for him to exploit his father first. At least he would have the salary in his hands and he wouldn't have to work.
He raised his head high, hugged Zhao Yang and turned to leave: "I don't have a mother as cruel as you. You have a house but don't let me live in it. You watched my grandson get hurt and forced me to work like a slave for you. Be careful that no one will take care of you when you are old."
"You're talking like if I take care of you now, you'll take care of me in my old age, but all you'll do is send me to jail for my old age."
Ma Xiulan slammed the door shut and slowly calmed herself down.
Zhao Xingjia was stunned for a moment. "Go to jail to live out my life?" How could that be? Even if he was a beast, he wouldn't do such a thing. Wouldn't it be better to leave my mother at home to work when she's old? She doesn't eat much anyway.
Why is he thinking about these things? He has been led astray by his mother. Now his mother is cold-hearted and heartless. Why should he support her in her old age?
He carried the unconscious Zhao Yang back to the small house where they lived.
Zhao Youcai had already learned from the fourth brother and his wife that Zhao Yang had fallen and hit his head while trying to steal money in the bathhouse. The second brother had not come back yet, so he thought he had taken Zhao Yang to see a doctor.
So when he saw the second son bringing Zhao Yang back, he asked, "How is the child's injury?"
Zhao Xingjia put Zhao Yang on the messy bed and said, "It's all your fault. You had a good life but you insisted on messing around with Li Shulan. My mother is so angry that she doesn't even want us anymore."
He thought about it all the way. Although Chen Zhenzhen was responsible for his mother's condition, Zhao Youcai also played a big role. He asked himself if there was anything wrong with him.
So when he saw Zhao Youcai, he became furious.
"My mom is so good to you and grandma, but you're still not satisfied. You're ugly but you play beautifully. What did Li Shulan want from you? It was just your money. Now you have no money. Do you think she will still care about you? She must have deceived you, otherwise why would she marry my cousin now?"
Zhao Youcai's sore spot was touched. He was obviously concerned about Zhao Yang, but he was mocked by the second brother. Before he could react, he slapped him.
Zhao Xingjia felt extremely wronged after being slapped. How could a man who had wronged him have the nerve to hit him? He immediately rushed towards Zhao Youcai.
The two of them were talking back and forth, and the room was small. Zhao Xingye was afraid that the two of them would disturb Zhang Zhaodi, who was pregnant, so he asked them to move to the side, where Old Lady Wang was.
Old Mrs. Wang's cloudy eyes flashed with fear, and she must not let these two people fall on her.
The next second, Zhao Xingye shouted "be careful" and Zhao Youcai fell heavily on Old Lady Wang. Zhao Xingjia and Zhao Xingye hurried to pull Zhao Youcai up.
Old Mrs. Wang was already breathing weakly.
Zhao Xingye looked at Old Lady Wang’s gray face and said, “Dad, hurry up and take her to the hospital.”
Zhao Youcai touched the little money left in his pocket and put the blame on Zhao Xingjia, who had just fought with him: "You hit me, and I was trying to avoid you, so I accidentally bumped into your grandmother. You pay."
Zhao Xingjia's eyes widened, and he quickly shifted the blame: "It was you who hit me first, so I fought back. And you were the one who hit grandma, didn't you know there was someone behind you?"
Zhao Youcai pointed at Zhao Xingjia angrily and said, "You evil creature! When you bumped into me, you knew your grandmother was behind me."
Zhao Xingjia denied it: "I was so emotional, who would remember what was around? She's your biological mother, you should remember."
"Stop making noise, grandma, she seems to have died."
Zhao Xingye looked at Old Lady Wang with his eyes motionless, and pulled Zhao Xingjia and Zhao Youcai with a little fear.
Zhao Xingjia and Zhao Youcai turned around at the same time and saw that Old Lady Wang seemed to have died with her eyes open.
Zhang Zhaodi looked frightened and covered Old Lady Wang's head with Zhao Youcai's clothes.
Zhao Xingjia reacted and immediately clarified himself: "Grandma was killed by you, it has nothing to do with me."
Zhao Youcai also denied the incident: "You killed him."
Zhao Xingye looked at the messy scene in front of him and whispered, "Can you guys keep your voices down? Aren't you afraid the neighbors will hear you?"
Fortunately, their house is in the corner, facing the street on the left, and the neighbor on the right went back to the countryside today and has not returned yet.
At this time, an angry male voice came from outside the door: "What time is it, and you guys are still making noise."
The room suddenly fell silent. Zhao Xingye whispered, "It's the voice of Zhang Mazi, our neighbor who lives next door to the right."
Zhang Mazi saw no movement from inside, so he went forward and knocked on the door, muttering, "Nothing's going to happen, is it?"
The people in the room looked at each other in bewilderment. Zhao Xingye had no doubt about his two stupid teammates: "Just say grandma fell under the bed and died, and we were just crying."
