The third brother's family should be the ones he owes the most, but they are also the ones he looks down upon the most.
"Xueyan, don't worry. If he doesn't cover it, mom will help you cover it later." Chen Xiaoying promised Zhao Xueyan.
Zhao Xueyan was already wiping her tears in grievance. When she heard what her mother-in-law said, she still felt a little unconvinced.
She has lived in the same courtyard with her parents-in-law for almost ten years, but it was only today that she saw her mother-in-law and father-in-law talking loudly to each other.
"Xiaoying, what's wrong with you?" Chen Xiaoping felt that his sister was having a good life and was always looking for trouble.
Chen Xiaoying looked at him silently. As her brother, she was most afraid of troubling him with something. As long as she was not beaten to death, he didn't even want to ask how she was living in this family.
"Big brother, second brother, I called you here today to be my witness. I want to split the money I've earned over the years with Li Pingwang. It's his own money, and if he doesn't want to spend it on his sons, then he doesn't have to spend it."
"Let him take it into the coffin himself. I want the part that belongs to me, and he can't tell me how to spend it."
When Chen Xiaoping and Chen Xiaorong heard this, their eyes suddenly widened.
"Sharing the money?"
"I don't want to share. I earned all the money. Why should you share my money?" Li Pingwang stiffened his neck. No one could ask him to pay.
"Didn't I give birth to your child? Didn't I wash your clothes when you were sixty? Didn't I cook for you? Didn't I also do the farm work with you?"
Chen Xiaoying felt sorry for herself: "Even if I was a nanny, just calculate how much I have earned in the past few decades."
"You are my wife, what's the point of wages?" Li Pingwang felt that she was talking nonsense.
Chen Xiaoying said coldly: "I am your wife, not a farmhand sold to you. I still say that half of the money you earn is mine, and you must pay it back."
"I won't take it!"
Li Pingwang had a ferocious look on his face.
"Okay, then I want to divorce you. I'll ask the court to check how much money you have and then give it to me." Chen Xiaoying was also angry.
"divorce?!"
Everyone in the yard said in unison, with a look of shock on their faces.
She is an old lady who already has grandchildren, but she wants a divorce.
"Are you crazy?" Li Pingwang thought she was possessed by evil spirits and needed to drink some soot from the bottom of the pot to cleanse her brain.
"I'm not crazy. I just want the hard work I put into this family throughout my life. Why don't you give it to me?" Chen Xiaoying said sternly, "If you don't give it to me, I will divorce you and call you Li Pingwang. It's shameful. It will bring shame to everyone in the surrounding villages."
"Whose man doesn't give his wife money to spend? Whose old man is sixty years old and still gets dumped by his wife?"
Hearing the girl's resolute tone, Chen Xiaoping and Chen Xiaorong couldn't help but shiver.
Is she serious?
Li Pingwang values his face so much that it is more important than his life.
She wanted to completely humiliate him and make him too embarrassed to face anyone.
"Mom, what are you thinking about? How old are you?" Li Hongwei grew up in the village and as a person living in the village, he could not accept the concept of divorce.
Chen Xiaoying didn't care what anyone said: "Li Pingwang, are you going to give it to me or not?"
Li Pingwang was so angry that his face turned red and his neck became thick, and he looked like he wanted to fight her to the death.
"Xiaoying, stop talking nonsense. Look how angry Pingwang is." Chen Xiaoping was afraid that something might happen to Li Pingwang, so he hurried to persuade her.
Chen Xiaoying didn't care: "If you get so angry that you have a brain hemorrhage, I'll take care of you. Anyway, I've taken care of you for forty years in my life, so a few more years won't make a difference."
Zhao Xueyan was also frightened and hid aside.
"Dad, why don't you just give it to me? It's only right for me to spend money on my mom." Li Hongwei couldn't help but persuade his father.
Li Pingwang suddenly exploded, as if he had finally found an outlet to vent, and he yelled at him: "I think you are the one who instigated your mother behind my back. You just want my money, and if you can't get it, ask your mother for it. She is a fool, she knows nothing, and she even knows about divorce?"
"Li Hongwei, you have been a piece of shit since you were little. You don't listen. When I tell you to go east, you go west. You even want to cheat me of my money. You are worse than pigs and dogs. You are a beast!"
Li Hongwei had good intentions, he was just worried that his parents were both old and one of them might get sick due to being mad at the other, which would not be good. Besides, isn't this the truth?
A couple earns money and the wife spends some, isn't that right?
"Dad, how can you say that to me? When did I ever ask my mom for money?" Li Hongwei was furious. A man in his thirties, he would fight for his brothers and get hurt without shedding a tear. But now that his father scolded him, he burst into tears. "I swear to God, if I ask my mom for this money, I will be struck by lightning. I will die a miserable death."
His father scolded him, calling him worse than pigs and dogs and a beast.
"Oh, stop arguing, stop arguing." Chen Xiaoping also knew that his nephew was aggrieved, but he chose to smooth things over and smooth things over.
Chen Xiaorong simply kept silent.
"Li Pingwang, if you dare to scold my son, I will fight with you." Chen Xiaoying was fed up with Li Pingwang's cursing of his sons since childhood.
She didn't know where she got the strength from, she rushed into the kitchen, took out a kitchen knife, and rushed out to chop at Li Pingwang.
Chen Xiaoping and Chen Xiaorong were so frightened that they forgot to pull the trigger.
Zhao Xueyan was so frightened that she hid in her room.
"Mom, mom?" Li Hongwei hurried to pull her.
Li Pingwang also widened his eyes. He never dreamed that his wife, who was as tough as clay, would pull a knife on him.
"You are crazy, you are just crazy." He hid in embarrassment.
"I told you to scold my son. I told you to scold my son. Why should you scold my son, my own son?"
Chen Xiaoying screamed, this time she was really crazy.
The four sons she gave birth to were beaten by him when they were young.
There are so many more, such as the pua mentioned by the eldest granddaughter, verbal violence, and various brainwashing.
He always smiles to outsiders, and smiles at everyone he sees. He never gets angry even if he suffers a loss, and he still smiles even if he is scolded.
But at home, he is like the King of Hell.
Scold a few sons, open your mouth and shut your mouth:
You are a fool!
You deserve a beating!
You are as stupid as a pig!
You will never amount to anything in your life!
Why don’t you just die!
It’s better to raise a dog than you. A dog knows how to wag its tail!
The four sons he raised were timid and afraid of people. They didn't dare to deal with others, and they didn't dare to say anything when they were bullied, because their father was a man who would smile even when he was bullied.
He himself was treated as a grandson outside, and under his influence, his sons also treated as grandsons outside. They did not fight back when they were beaten or scolded.
The eldest brother is growing up and knows that if he is bullied, he must fight back. So, in his mouth, it becomes: The eldest brother causes trouble everywhere, I despise the eldest brother the most.
Yes, he looked down on the eldest brother the most, because his PUA didn't work on the eldest brother. The eldest brother didn't listen to him, and when he grew up, he refused to accept his beatings obediently.
"Oh my, why is there a fight in Li Pingwang's family?"
"Chen Xiaoying is crazy, holding a knife."
"Hurry up and hold him. If he were to stab you with the knife, what would happen?"
At the entrance of the yard was a tattered gate made of wooden boards. When they heard the noise, a large group of villagers gathered around and pointed at the yard.
Those who are brave enough will come over and join in the fun.
