Chapter 404 It seems like he has a big move in mind.
Meng Zhiyi's words almost made Li Ping vomit blood in anger.
She just wanted to gossip in the elder's ear and provoke the Meng family.
I never thought that this brat would dare to fight back so directly, and even let all the guests know about it.
After hearing what Meng Zhiyi said, the guests began to whisper to each other.
The old man's face was as stiff as death. He first glared at Meng Zhiyi, then scolded Li Ping in a low voice: "Go back to your room if you have nothing to do. Don't embarrass yourself here!"
After being scolded, Li Ping felt very aggrieved, but she did not dare to disobey the elder master, so she could only leave in disgrace.
[Haha, with this level of combat power, pure cannon fodder. ]
[But the old man is very patient. It seems that he has a big trick up his sleeve. ]
[I want to see what tricks they will come up with this time.]
Meng Zhiyi acted like a good boy from beginning to end and simply ignored the glares from the Yuan family.
With the example of Li Ping, no one dared to touch Meng Zhiyi's trick again.
On the way, Meng's mother was called away by the Yuan family.
In the rest area, all the Meng family members sat on the sofas and did not socialize at all.
Meng Zhizhou and Meng Yiyang were peeling pine nuts for their younger sister in tacit understanding. Meng Yanchuan clasped his hands around his chest and looked at the guests who were chatting and laughing, his expression showing complete boredom.
Meng Tinglan peeled an orange in his hand and watched his mother being taken upstairs. He frowned and whispered, "They only called my mother. Are they going to brainwash me again?"
Father Meng was a little worried, and when he stood up and wanted to chase after him, he was stopped by Meng Zhiyi.
"Dad, you don't have to go."
As soon as she opened her mouth, the father and son looked at her.
Meng Zhizhou handed her a handful of peeled pine nuts and said, "Listen to my little sister. I also want to see what kind of medicine they are selling."
Hearing his son and daughter say this, Father Meng put his butt down again.
On the second floor, Meng's mother was called to the study. Except for the young people of the Yuan family, almost everyone else was there.
Seeing this scene, Meng's mother had some idea in her mind and guessed what they were going to say.
As expected, just after the door of the study was closed, Meng's mother heard her father say, "Do you really think that after you get married, you can ignore your own family?"
"Humph, that's right. He suspended Dad's card after he allowed his daughter to cause a scene at the ancestral hall. In my opinion, he did it on purpose, didn't he?"
"She deliberately made her daughter make trouble so that she could have an excuse not to give money to her parents' home."
"The Yuan family really raised you in vain, and you turned out to be an ungrateful person."
"Yuan Huiying, if you don't give me an explanation today, don't blame me for telling others that you are an unfilial daughter who didn't even support your old father."
"You will not be able to survive in the circle of wealthy families."
A group of people were talking at the same time, all speaking ill of Meng's mother.
Meng's mother scanned the people in the study one by one, and found that both the direct relatives and those from the side branches were there.
This scene was exactly the same as when I was a child and was wrongly accused, the whole family surrounded me and scolded me.
Mother Meng wanted to laugh. She was almost going to be a grandmother, but she was still being bullied by this group of people.
She has reflected on this carefully these days. Over the years, both she, her husband and her children have been angry with them to some extent because of her.
No wonder her husband and son were reluctant to come back with her.
Thinking of this, Meng Mu sneered at these people and said, "So, you called me here just to say this?"
"You said that I don't care about my parents' home after I got married. You really have double standards. Who was it that said that I was a married woman and had no right to enjoy the benefits of my parents' home when my parents' home was enjoying benefits? I think it was you too."
"On the one hand, she looked down on my husband because he was a businessman, and on the other hand, she wanted money from me."
"You've been sucking my blood since you were little, and now I've become an ungrateful person."
"You guys are so shameless."
Meng Mu is no longer the victim she was before. She deeply understands that her family only includes her husband and children, and these people have never regarded her as a family member.
Therefore, there is no need to compromise and let them control you.
As soon as the words fell, the whole study fell silent.
Everyone looked at her in shock, as if they had not expected this to happen.
The man who had been suppressed in the Yuan family for half his life actually stood up.
"Yuan Huiying! Do you know what you are saying?" Yuan Chongzhou, who was standing next to Yuan Laoyezi, glared at her and scolded her.
Meng's mother laughed and looked at her father with disappointment.
"Of course I know what I'm saying." Meng Mu paused, as if she had made some kind of decision, and continued, "Maybe I didn't say it clearly enough on the phone, so I'll say it again now."
"From now on, the Meng family will not give you a penny. As for your support, I will give you the amount required by law every month, so that you won't accuse me of not supporting my own father."
"Also, I will recover all the things you bought with the money earned by my husband and son."
"As for whether you want to promote it or not, it's up to you. I, Yuan Huiying, have cared about my reputation all my life, but in the end, my husband and children have suffered nothing but injustice."
"I'm old enough now, so it doesn't matter to me anymore."
Meng Mu's words were so loud that the Yuan family was stunned and couldn't say a word.
Yuan Laoyezi and Yuan Chongzhou felt like they were slapped in the face in public. The dignity of the elders was crushed to pieces by Meng Mu at this moment.
In silence, everyone had their own thoughts.
They had to admit that after hearing Meng's mother say that she would take back the things they had bought with the Meng family's money, everyone had already started planning how to transfer them.
After a moment, Yuan Chongzhou rushed over with a red face and slapped Meng's mother hard in the face.
"You rebellious girl! Have you forgotten all the manners you learned in primary school? How dare you say such rebellious words!"
When Meng's mother was over fifty years old, she was slapped in the face by her own father in public.
After this slap, Meng Mu's delicate hair immediately fell apart and her cheeks quickly swelled up.
Meng's mother covered her face with her hands, tears welling up in her eyes but she stubbornly refused to let them fall.
When the other people in the study saw this, they were briefly surprised, but then they felt happy and relieved.
As if to say, she deserved to be beaten.
Yuan Chongzhou looked on coldly and ordered, "Your grandfather's birthday banquet cost 800,000 yuan, you have to pay for it. Also, send 1 million yuan home every month, not a penny less."
As soon as the words fell, the others immediately became unhappy.
"One million is too little. It should be at least five million."
Hearing this, Meng's mother refused without even thinking: "Impossible."
"I'm informing you, not asking for your opinion." Yuan Chongzhou said, and then continued with a gloomy face: "Lock her in the room, and release her when the money arrives."
In the evening, the guests had left one after another, leaving only Meng Zhiyi and a few others sitting in the lounge. The table was piled with pine nut shells like a small mountain.
At this time, the servant of Yuan family came over.
"Everyone, the master said that the second young lady hasn't come back for a long time, so he wants her to stay at home for a few days."
Hearing this, Father Meng and his four brothers all frowned.
Only Meng Zhiyi raised his eyebrows and asked with a half-smile, "Are you sure?"
