That was his humiliation.
Lu Rong took out a knife and slammed it on the table.
"mom."
Boss Lu wanted to stop her.
She stopped her son with her eyes, "Yang Lin, either we die together today, or you choose one of the two."
She looked at Old Lady Yang at the door and said, "Old lady, don't cry anymore. Aren't you afraid that Old Man Yang will crawl out of the grave and come looking for you? His life could have been cured for 500 yuan in the provincial capital, but you refused to treat him because of money."
"Your son still thinks he didn't earn enough money to cure his father's illness," she said, amused.
Yang Lin: "Lu Rong, shut up. My dad died of illness. What does that have to do with my mom?"
Lu Rong scoffed.
Yang Lin spent his entire life proving that his mother loved him.
However, her mother had lied to her about marrying into the Lu family so that her father could get medical treatment.
But that money was all given to Boss Yang.
Old Yang was a good-for-nothing; he was swindled out of all 800 yuan, not only failing to get a job but also losing his life.
Lu Rong was too lazy to waste words with him. "Choose."
Yang Lin lowered his head and remained silent.
Lu Rong wasn't in a hurry. She looked at the villagers filling the courtyard and said, "Wanyue, pour water for everyone. Today, I want you all to be my witnesses. When will your father-in-law make his selection, then you can all leave."
Qiao Wanyue quickly entered the room and brought out a large basket of apples. Although they were all wrinkled and bruised, they were still precious to ordinary farmers.
Everyone took one. Some of the young wives asked Qiao Wanyue if they could take one home, as they wanted to give it to their children. Qiao Wanyue then gave one to each of them, telling them to eat it without worry.
The young wife was moved to tears.
After Qiao Wanyue finished distributing the apples, she went inside to get stools for everyone to sit and wait.
Everyone waited for Yang Lin to make his choice.
Yang Lin tried to run, but Lu Mantang held him down firmly.
Even the Yang family members were detained.
They also pulled Yang Huaiyuan, Yang Dacui, and Qiao Shanshan, who were not present, to come over as witnesses.
Lu Rong was truly determined.
Grandma Yang's mind raced, but Lu Rong stared at her menacingly.
Lu Rong wasn't in a hurry. He took the big apple his daughter-in-law handed him and started crunching away.
Qiao Wanyue distributed the food to everyone in the main room, but not to the Yang family.
Yang Lin saw another opening and scolded Qiao Wanyue with a stern face, "Qiao Wanyue, are you blind? Why didn't you give it to your grandma?"
Qiao Wanyue looked up at him and said, "You choose first. Whether she is my grandmother or not is still up in the air."
He wanted to take the opportunity to lash out again.
Lu Rong slammed the knife on the table.
Yang Lin shrank his neck.
He looked at his elderly mother pleadingly.
Grandma Yang pretended to be dead and looked down at the tips of her shoes.
Try to minimize your presence.
Yang Lin sniffed.
He's really incompetent, letting his own mother suffer such injustice because of him.
His mind was in complete turmoil.
Yang Lin was smart. He knew that no matter what choice he made, it would be wrong. If he was kicked out penniless, wouldn't that just cause trouble for the Yang family? Even if he could rely on his eldest son to support him, it would be difficult to subsidize his mother in the future.
But if the relationship were severed, Lu Rong would have made such a big fuss today.
If he ever works for the Yang family again, everyone will weep for his mother.
He didn't want to choose.
He resented Lu Rong. Why couldn't he just live a good life? He didn't care that he was a live-in son-in-law. Because of his status as a live-in son-in-law, how many people gossiped about him and talked behind his back?
