The eldest aunt pulled Li Qiumei aside and said, "We kicked Yuan Hongfen and Jianguo out together.
I also went to Jianjun's unit to say hello, and I will be the one to collect his salary from now on.
Let's treat Jianjun!"
Li Qiumei hesitated for a moment: "Logically speaking, Yuan Hongfen is his mother, and only she can take it.
What if Yuan Hongfen goes to the company again in a couple of days? Will they give her the money again?
The eldest aunt said firmly: "No, my second brother has never obtained a marriage certificate with her.
We moved here just over ten years ago.
At that time, we told the outside world that Jianjun's mother was dead.
Therefore, as long as we don't admit it, Yuan Hongfen will have no way to prove that she is Jianjun's mother."
A gray-haired old man sighed, "Xiumei, Jianguo is your second brother's bloodline after all.
You shouldn't be so heartless as to kick him out.
In my opinion, all we have to do is kick that scumbag Yuan Hongfen out."
The eldest aunt's eyes turned red: "Third uncle, you say we are heartless?
Then do you know?
Ever since Jianjun asked them to come back, the mother and son have been picking out the best food, clothing, and daily necessities.
Jianjun treats him as his brother, but what about him?
Does he treat Jianjun as his real brother?
Has Jianguo taken care of Jianjun for even a single day since he fell ill?
Moreover, you also heard that Jianguo and Yuan Hongfen have already gone to the Water Conservancy Bureau to inquire about taking over the shift.
They are just waiting for the job of building the army.
We in the Zhang family don't dare accept such a heartless and ungrateful person."
My aunt was crying as she spoke.
The eldest uncle also wiped his tears and said, "I am also responsible. I should have listened to you and firmly opposed the mother and son coming back.
A woman who was able to abandon her husband and children does not deserve sympathy.
Jianguo was also corrupted by her and had the same character as her. He even watched his own brother die without helping him.
Alas, I feel sorry for my second brother."
As they were talking, Yuan Hongfen came in with Zhang Jianguo.
She walked up to the white-haired old man with a cane, pulled Zhang Jianguo and knelt down.
"Second Ancestor, please make a decision for us mother and daughter.
I am Jianjun’s biological mother. He is sick and I feel more distressed than anyone else.
But I am not strong enough to take care of him.
But you can't accuse me of not caring about Jianjun just because of this.
Last night, Jianjun was almost dying, and I even found someone to celebrate for him.
If it weren't for the wedding that brought him back to life, Jianjun would be gone now.
How can you say I don’t care about him?”
Yuan Hongfen started crying as she spoke.
Seeing that no one paid attention to her, she knelt down and moved to Zhang Jianjun's bed, patting the bed.
"Jianjun, my son, please open your eyes and see that your brother and I have been kicked out of the house.
Wake up and take charge of this for us."
The eldest aunt walked over, grabbed Yuan Hongfen's hair, and slapped her twice.
"Didn't you always say you felt sorry for Jianjun?
So, as an old man, are you kneeling beside his bed intentionally trying to shorten his life?"
The eldest aunt was about to drag Yuan Hongfen out, cursing, but Yuan Hongfen held on to the leg of the bed tightly.
"Zhang Xiumei, as a married daughter, why do you have the right to interfere in your mother's family affairs?
I think you just want to come back and occupy Jianjun's house.
Let me tell you, Jianguo is also Chongli's son, so whether it's the old house or the new house, it will only belong to the two brothers.
It has nothing to do with you, an outsider."
The eldest aunt slapped Yuan Hongfen again and said, "Your fox tail is showing now.
Jianjun was kind enough to take you and your son in, but you not only want his money but also his life.
Get out of here now, and go back to where you came from."
Li Qiumei saw that Zhang Jianguo had a gloomy face and said nothing, but his clenched fists showed that he was very angry at the moment.
Yuan Hongfen continued chattering, "Second Grandfather, Third Uncle, I was the only one who raised Jianguo with great difficulty since he was a child.
No matter how much Big Brother and Xiumei dislike him, they can't kick him out of the Zhang family.
How will he face people and live in the future?"
The Second Elder coughed and said, "You two, mother and son, are too heartless to behave like human beings. We, the Zhang family, will not keep you any longer.
Live the same way you lived before you came back."
Yuan Hongfen and her son had no choice but to leave in shame. When they left, Zhang Jianguo turned around and gave everyone a vicious look.
The second ancestor said to the third uncle, "The way this bastard turned around just now doesn't look like he's from our Zhang family.
Notice that no one is allowed to have private contact with him from now on."
The third uncle nodded repeatedly: "I see. I just pleaded for him."
An old lady looked at Li Qiumei and said, "You are the one Yuan Hongfen brought here to celebrate the wedding, right?"
Li Qiumei nodded.
The old lady spoke again: "Yuan Hongfen said she gave your mother a hundred yuan. So now are you going to continue to be Jianjun's wife, or what should you do?"
Li Qiumei smiled and said, "I was drugged and passed out. I don't know how I ended up at Zhang Jianjun's house.
I’m definitely going to leave.”
The old lady curled her lips and said, "If you want to go back, you have to return the 100 yuan betrothal gift.
You can see that Jianjun is in urgent need of money for medical treatment."
Li Qiumei nodded: "It's time to return it.
However, the money is for my mother, so I can only take you to ask her for it.
Let me tell you first, my mother is thick-skinned. Once the money is in her hands, she will not easily spit it out.
She is not only good at arguing, but also good at fighting.
I see that my mother is younger than you and my aunt, and I don't think you two can beat her.
You should find some people who are good at arguing and fighting and follow me to find my mom to get the money back."
After Li Qiumei finished speaking, everyone was dumbfounded.
The old lady burst out laughing: "Girl, how much hatred do you have for your mother?"
Li Qiumei snorted coldly: "Who would dare to want a mother like this?"
She looked at the people in Zhang Jianjun's family and said, "Hurry up and discuss which ones will follow me to ask for money.
Don't wait too long, my mother will go back to her hometown, and then we have to go back to Beishan County to ask her for it."
The second ancestor spoke: "Jianwen, ride your bike to call Chunhua and her third aunt over.
I don’t believe that you guys can’t get back the hundred dollars.”
The eldest aunt pulled Li Qiumei and said, "Qiumei, if you make such a fuss, I'm afraid your mother will dislike you even more.
What are you going to do next?"
"Aunt, my mother doesn't like me no matter whether I make a fuss or not."
Li Qiumei pulled her aunt to the door of the ward and talked to her in a low voice.
Zhang Jianjun's cousin soon came in with two women. The tall and slightly plump one in her thirties was Chunhua, and the other one, who was in her forties, with a loud voice and wild eyes, was Aunt Chen.
Li Qiumei felt that there were five of them including herself, which was enough to deal with Hu Lanying alone.
