Seeing that no one believed her, Zhu Wenying lowered her head and told them what happened that day. Everything she said was true, but she glorified Chen Xiangdong and herself a little.
But even so, the neighbors in the compound didn't believe it. What normal mother-in-law would give up her eldest son just because she didn't want to wash the sheets for her own grandson?
Oh, it’s not a division of the family, but sending the person to the in-laws’ house to be a son-in-law, and they don’t even want their son anymore.
It's absolutely impossible. Even if Old Mrs. Xia wanted to do so, Old Chen, the head of the family, would never agree. Could it be possible that Old Mrs. Xia could still make decisions for Old Chen, the eldest son of the Chen family?
Chen Xiangdong was still begging for mercy, but the people in the house seemed to be dead. No matter how heated the discussion outside was, no one inside spoke.
Old Chen was finally woken up. He was a little grumpy and came to the door angrily, and found his old wife sitting by the gate.
"Is it the boss?" Old Chen and Chen Xiangdong have been father and son for so many years. He is not stupid and can still recognize his son's voice.
Old Lady Xia: "Otherwise, which bitch would make such a fuss so early in the morning?"
Old Chen suppressed his bad temper and said, "After all, he was born and raised by you. How could you say that about him?"
Old Lady Xia said perfunctorily, "Then what should I say? Praise him for being great. He is truly our great son."
Old Chen didn't want to talk to her anymore. It was too boring.
He raised his hand to open the door. The child was back, so how could he let him shout like that outside? He was a grown man with a pregnant wife. If he told others about it, people would scold the Chen family for being so heartless, so mean, and so harsh on the child.
Besides, this is his biological son, his first son. He definitely prefers his eldest son to the two later ones.
Old Chen thought that what happened yesterday was his wife threatening the eldest brother's family. Now that the eldest brother's family has obeyed, there is no need to be so arrogant.
Since she is unwilling to bow her head, then let her bow her head. When the time comes, she can open the door and scold him a few times. He is still their good son and a member of this family. Isn't this a win-win situation for everyone?
"What a person you are." Old Chen sighed. He thought he still understood her and never thought that Old Lady Xia really wanted to kick people out, so he put his hand on the door lock.
Before it even opened, Old Lady Xia pushed it.
Old Chen lost his balance and fell to the ground, feeling a sharp pain in his coccyx.
"Ah~" Old Chen cried out in pain, waking up the others who were still sleeping.
"What are you doing, my..." Old Chen couldn't get up anymore. "Help me get to the hospital quickly. You are so vicious."
Old Mrs. Xia was also shocked. She had never thought that he would be injured. After all, going to the hospital would cost money. Who knew that this old man was so weak that he fell down all of a sudden and injured his butt.
While supporting the man, she asked the second child to open the door, "Send your dad to the hospital, Xiang Hong, lock the door and don't let anyone in!"
Chen Xianghong agreed hesitantly.
Old Chen, who was being supported, was not obedient. He became even angrier after hearing this. "You are too cruel. He is your own son. Why can't you let him in? This is my home. It is the house allocated to me. My son can live here openly."
"Why are you kicking him out? He has children at home. Where are you going to let them live? The Zhu family is a den of wolves. How can they treat them well? If they really move in, the eldest brother and his wife, two idiots, will be eaten to the bone by the Zhu family and they will still be thanking them."
"Xiang Hong, you are not allowed to lock the door. Let your elder brother come in. Do you hear me?"
Chen Xianghong looked embarrassed.
Chen Xiangdong, standing outside, felt his pride hurt by his father's words. What did he mean by "he and Wenying are two idiots"? They were both serious workers, not to mention capable, but at least respectable people in the compound. How could his father think of them as two idiots?
He stopped knocking and retorted loudly: "Dad, I'm not stupid, I'm the same as you."
He wanted to say, I am a worker like you, how can I be stupid!
Old Chen was furious. "Who is like you? Don't drag me into this stupid act of yours. I'm speaking up for you. Why are you making trouble?"
He turned around and raged at Old Lady Xia again, "I can let go of what you've done these days, but I absolutely won't agree to such a big thing as separating our eldest son. If you don't agree to me..."
Old Chen wanted to tell her to get out of his house if she didn't agree, but he knew rationally that he shouldn't say that, so he held the words back. He was afraid that Old Lady Xia would make everything worse for him, and his fate might be worse than that of the old Ma family, the worst off family in their compound.
This domineering old lady!
But for the sake of his eldest son, he still threatened: "If you don't agree to me, then I won't go to the hospital. Just let me be paralyzed at home!"
He felt that this threat had a great influence. If he became paralyzed, given how money-hungry Old Lady Xia had been recently, she would definitely not want him to be paralyzed at home. After all, he had a salary from work, and if he didn't work, the bulk of their family's income would be gone. He believed that he still had some status in Old Lady Xia's heart, even if it was for money.
Old Lady Xia slapped him. "What did you say? You mean I can't decide the house allocated to you? Why don't you go to the hospital? It's up to you whether you want to go or not. If you really become paralyzed, you can see if your eldest son can take good care of you. Anyway, I will never care about you."
She pushed the person towards the second brother and walked into the bedroom, leaving only one sentence.
"Whoever lets the boss and his family in here will get out!"
Old Chen didn't dare to act rashly and prayed for the eldest brother's family in his heart.
After all, I would rather die than let my friend die, and I would rather die than let my son die. Let the boss bear the storms alone in the future.
At most, he could give half of his monthly pocket money to his eldest grandson, no more than that, because he also had to spend money.
Chen Xiangnan was exhausted. It was early in the morning and he had to take a bus to look for Zhao Hui today. Now his father was injured and his mother was so angry with him that she ignored him. He couldn't handle it alone.
"Third brother, get out of here! Are you a dead pig? You won't wake up from all the noise! Get out of here!"
In the end, the big resentful Chen Xiangbei was dragged by his second brother to take his own father to the hospital. On the way, he was scolded by Old Chen and Chen Xiangnan together.
When his eldest brother saw the injured Old Chen, he hid away, as if he was afraid of asking him to pay for the medical expenses. He just stared at and shouted at Old Mrs. Xia in the house.
Old Chen originally wanted to comfort the eldest brother, but seeing this, he angrily ignored him.
Chen Xiangbei didn't understand why he was always the one being scolded. He was still a young boy. Was sleeping soundly against the laws of nature? His elder brother was so outrageous, yet no one scolded him!
Later he realized that those who were abandoned were not even worthy of being scolded.
