"Your mom and Lao Ma got their marriage certificate and went on a honeymoon abroad. They should be on a plane right now. Your mom said she wants to enjoy her remaining time, bury herself wherever she goes, and isn't coming back. She told you to take care of yourselves!"
The plump woman spoke loudly, her eyes filled with disdain. She used to envy Sister Wang for being so lucky, with all four of her children being college graduates with respectable jobs, making her a source of pride and prestige.
Unlike her son, who didn't do well in school, couldn't get into university, and dropped out of high school to take over his father's job, but didn't work hard, was irresponsible, and liked to fight with people, which worried her so much that her hair turned white.
Although her son works outside, he is extremely filial to her. Last year, when she had gallstone surgery, her son didn't need his wife's help at all. He took care of everything inside and outside the hospital. Everyone in the ward envied her for having such a good son. He looks tall and strong, but he is more attentive than her daughter.
Moreover, although the son has no formal education, he does quite well at his workplace. Later, he even took a leave of absence to start his own business, opening a car repair shop, which is now very profitable, earning more than all four siblings combined.
The fat woman felt that she was more fortunate than Sister Wang because her son was good at making money and was filial. He had also given her a grandson and a granddaughter. She thought she shouldn't have scolded her son for those four ungrateful children and said that her son was not as good as others.
Her son is a million times better than those four ingrates.
"My mom went abroad? No way...you're lying to us..."
The second daughter screamed, her face filled with disbelief. Her mother had always been waiting for them to come home. No matter when they returned, her mother would always cook delicious food and drinks to entertain them.
She felt that her mother would always be waiting for them at home, no matter what happened or what they, her siblings, did; her mother would not care and would still love them as before.
But now...
My mother wants to sever ties with them?
How could you do that!
The second daughter still refuses to accept reality. She thinks it must be a dream, or that these people are making up lies to deceive her.
"Here is also an open letter left by Ms. Wang Meie, addressed to you four siblings. Ms. Wang Meie said it should be read aloud."
Attorney Fang cleared his throat and began to read.
"...I plan to travel the world with Lao Ma with the six million from selling antiques. We'll spend it all before returning home. If we don't spend it all, we'll donate the money to build schools for children in mountainous areas. You both have decent jobs and your income is enough to support your families, so I don't need to leave it to you."
Moreover, your father and I have devoted ourselves to raising you since you were young, ensuring that each of you went to university, got a decent job, and even paid for your houses. Before all this, I had given my all to you without receiving anything in return.
Now, I'm going to live for myself. You'd better watch yourselves!
Attorney Fang's voice was high-pitched and powerful, like a broadcaster's voice. He was carefully selected by Sister Wang; that was exactly the kind of voice she wanted.
The four siblings' actions today were all within Sister Wang's expectations. She knew them too well, which is why she meticulously planned this scene, making them lose face in public and venting her own anger.
The four siblings' faces were as black as ink, their teeth clenched tightly. They never expected their mother to be so ruthless, leaving them not a single penny of the six million. She was too heartless.
"You brought this on yourself..."
Someone sighed, and everyone shook their heads, quite disappointed in the four siblings. They had no interest in getting involved in this mess anymore, and soon dispersed.
Attorney Fang put away the documents, walked up to his second son, and said contemptuously, "Attorney Liang, the boss said you don't need to go back to work. It's not good for the firm, so he wants you to find another job."
