Chapter 146 Their Plan

After eating pork stewed with vermicelli at noon, Su Jinxia asked Zhao Yue to go out and find a car. They had to go back to the village to handle important matters tomorrow, and they definitely couldn't do it without a car.

Zhao Mancang came back from outside and looked at the ingredients in the kitchen. There were about two pounds of pork belly, a few large bones, and some cabbages and potatoes that had just grown in the fields. Compared with his second son's wedding banquet with lavish fish and meat, these were really too shabby.

He angrily pushed open the curtain and walked into the room, looking at Yang Lan lying on the kang with a towel covering her head, looking like she was dying.

"What are you doing? We only prepared so few things. When they come back tomorrow and see such a shabby wedding banquet, they will be mad at us! They said they would pay for it, but you still made such a mess of it."

"Why are you so angry? It's already good enough to have both meat and bones. How much more do I need to give? Besides, do you believe they can pay? I don't believe it at all. I think they are trying to trick us again!" Yang Lan took off the towel on her head and sat up. "They came back and divided the house. We took out all our money. There are only a few left. If we give them a good life, how can we live in the future?"

"You have long hair but short knowledge. There is nothing I can do. The third brother took his wife and went straight back to the city, and the eldest brother went back to work. Even the little girl went with them. Now we are left alone. If we don't please the second brother, who will take care of us in the future?" Zhao Mancang said earnestly. He wanted his wife to understand his thoughts and that only his way was the right one.

Yang Lan was upset when her words touched her heart.

"Although the third child has gone back, he will come back in the future. He will not ignore us! Why should we rely on the second child to support us?"

"I finally understand that reading too many books is useless. When they left, they took everything they could, and almost scraped off the walls of the house!" Zhao Mancang felt cold in his heart when he thought of his youngest son. When they returned to the house that day, they thought there was a mouse in the house!

Even the cool mat on the kang was rolled away, and the things in the cupboard were spotless, cleaner than they usually cleaned.

Yang Lan, "Although the second son is doing well, his wife is a very easy person to control. How can she possibly serve us in the future!"

Zhao Mancang smiled and said, "Once that woman has a baby, we can do whatever we want with her.

We were too arrogant that day and kept thinking about pairing the Second Brother with Guo Zhizhi. That made them angry. We'll apologize properly tomorrow and the matter will be over.

We can't treat the second child with the same attitude as before. We need to treat him well and please him. Don't forget that he is older and doesn't even have a grandchild. Even though Guo Ru Ru is pregnant, we don't know what she will give birth to!"

Yang Lan was so angry that her chest hurt. The child she gave birth to was despised as worthless, while the child she stole became successful. She couldn't accept it.

"If I had known this, I would not have sent my second son to the army. I should have let my first son go instead!"

"Come on! At that time, the eldest brother had just entered the factory as an apprentice. It would have been a waste if he was sent to the army!" Zhao Mancang began to ramble, "We planned everything, but we didn't expect Xiaoyong to be such a heartless man. He married a wife and forgot about us. He just followed his daughter-in-law back home. I didn't know and thought he was a live-in son-in-law! What the neighbors said and their smiling faces are a slap in my face!"

Yang Lan stopped talking. She also knew that those kids were good-for-nothings and none of them had a conscience.

I feel very angry when I think about having to rely on myself and secretly raise my child in the future!

"I'll go to the team and borrow two more chickens, otherwise I won't be able to justify myself." Zhao Mancang said this and got off the ground. He thought his wife had figured it out.

Yang Lan grabbed his arm and said, "I was wrong before. I will go to the production team and buy two more chickens, and then make 50 more eggs, and take down the bacon on the wall."

"That's right. Let's have a great time tomorrow. We can use this to stop him in the future. Even though we didn't treat him well before, as parents, we are already very good to have done this. We only talked about dividing the family that day, but didn't mention support in old age. In the future, we can let him support us in old age, and he won't have any objections!" Zhao Mancang was in a good mood and put his arm around his wife. "It was right to let you have more children. Otherwise, we wouldn't have any support in the future!"

Yang Lan gently pushed the others away and said, "Invite the clan leader over tomorrow. This will make it more dignified."

"That's not necessary, right? Our Zhao family's old lady is already 95 years old this year. If we invite her over, what should we do if something happens?" Zhao Mancang was still worried, fearing that if something went wrong with the old man, he would not be able to take the responsibility.

"If you are allowed to go, then go ahead. Then we will ask the Second Brother to promise in front of the clan leader that he will take care of us until the end of our lives. This way, he won't be able to regret it."

"It's really great, but I didn't think of that. If he changes his mind, he will be removed from the family tree. Isn't the army strict about discipline? I wonder how he can be a soldier then."

"Hurry up and say nice things. You have to get people to come."

"The second child is considered a promising kid in the village, and he's also a soldier. The old patriarch will definitely give him face."

"Then let's split up!"

So they all went out, each in the opposite direction!

The Zhao family is going to hold another wedding. This news has spread throughout the village, and some people are waiting to see the joke tomorrow.

Because the Zhao family split up that day, they heard something from Zhao Yong and knew that they had divided the family property.

In the past, the couple had shown off a lot in the village. Zhao Yong worked in a slaughterhouse with good benefits, and Zhao Yue was doing well in the army and would send things back during the holidays.

If Zhao Yong goes to university, he will become an intellectual in the future!

They never mention their daughters. In their eyes, their daughters are just money-losing goods to be raised by other people!

Zhao Mancang arrived at the clan leader's house and saw his old man strolling in the yard with a cane. He was old and his hair was gray, but he was still in good health.

The only person who can live to 95 in their village is this person! Previously, due to famine, all the elderly people died.

"Old Patriarch, I came here to invite you to attend my second son's wedding tomorrow."

Old Mrs. Zhao came over with a cane and said, "Didn't I tell you that? I won't go to your college student's wedding. I'm too old to move."

"It's not him, it's my second son."

"The soldier?"

"Then I'll go."

The old man's expression changed so quickly that it turned into a smiling face. If you didn't know, you would have thought he had picked up some money.

Zhao Mancang cursed his old man in his heart, but he didn't dare to say it out loud, "Then let's make a deal, you be the best man!"

"Okay, I'll be the best man. Your second child is promising. I've had high hopes for him since he was young. Your family will depend on him for the future!" The old man said with a smile, "As for the other children in your family, they're also pretty good. You're a blessed person!"
