"you!"
"What do you mean, 'I'? I've never seen anyone as shameless as you. How could you have the nerve to say those things?"
"Bean sprouts..."
"Get out of my house right now, or don't blame me for turning my back on you."
"Da Niu, look at your child..."
"Uncle, Aunt, let's go. It'll be ugly if we tear off the mask of civility."
They all turned away the guests, and even Wang's eldest uncle's face turned cold.
"Fine, you think I want to meddle in your family's affairs? Just you wait and see. You'll see who's really good to you later, and you'll regret it."
He then left with his wife.
Wang Cuihou called out twice, but neither of them stopped.
"Look at you, you fool! Wouldn't it be great if your uncle's grandson were adopted by you? He's your blood relative, you'd get a son for free."
Wang Cuihua has been having a tough time lately.
In March, Fang Eryou participated in the prefectural examination. Wang Cuihua hoped that Fang Eryou would pass the examination and become a Xiucai (a successful candidate in the county-level imperial examinations), so that he could become a Xiucai's mother.
But her hopes were dashed after the results were announced. On the other hand, Fang Sanhua's son, Fang Dashu, passed the imperial examination on his first attempt and even became the top scholar in the county. How could anyone not be envious?
Moreover, Fang Er has recently developed a strong gambler's habit. Every time he comes home, he asks her for money, and if she doesn't give him any, he gets angry and smashes things up at home.
His wife, Xiaodie, is a devil. She's lazy and loves to eat. She's been married to him for almost half a year and hasn't even washed the dishes.
She tried to scold him, but he wouldn't listen.
She did hit her, but the next day that bitch called her brother to deal with her.
She's a complete ancestor, and she can't even give him a big, healthy grandson!
She couldn't help but miss her old life.
She used to be the matriarch at home.
She realized how good Fang Daniu was.
If the family hadn't separated, she would have been the landlady.
At this moment, her tone was much calmer when she spoke to Fang Daniu.
Fang Daniu didn't speak, but Fang Qing did.
“My new second aunt can’t have children, so it would be better to give the child to my second uncle.”
"this……"
“If my great-uncle is really willing to give the child to my second uncle, then he is truly kind-hearted.”
Wang Cuihua was speechless.
"Let's not talk about that now, Da Niu. Er You hasn't been doing well lately. We used to have some conflicts, but you and Er You have always had a good relationship. Now that you have money, shouldn't you help him out?"
If Fang Daniu hadn't mentioned this, he might have been able to have a proper conversation with the old woman, but hearing this made him uncomfortable.
It wasn't that he disliked Fang Eryou that much, but the old woman's biased attitude of always putting Fang Eryou first made him angry.
“I’ve already said I won’t get involved in his affairs. Besides, he’s perfectly fine now, so why would he need my help? If I could read, I might be able to help him with his studies, but I can’t. It was you, Mother, who forbade me from reading and writing.”
“You have money, you can give him money…”
“I’ll say it again, I have no money. All the money in this house was earned by Douya and belongs to her. I’m just benefiting from it.”
The old woman was so angry at his attitude that her chest heaved.
"I'm your mother, don't you want to forgive me anymore?"
Fang Daniu looked straight at her.
“If you truly respected Douya and her mother, I could forgive you, but that’s not the case. Otherwise, you wouldn’t have brought your uncle here.”
No matter how much she pleaded, the old woman felt that even after lowering herself to speak to Fang Daniu, he still acted this way. She was so angry that she smashed the bowl of water she was drinking from.
"How could I have given birth to such a thing as you!"
She didn't want to suffer any more abuse there, so she got up and left.
The family of four didn't take it seriously and went on to eat and sleep.
Fang Qing thought the matter was over, but little did she know that this was just the beginning.
Not two days later, Wang's eldest uncle came to visit again.
This time, it wasn't just the couple who came; a girl and a five-year-old child also came with them.
When Fang Qing got home from school, she saw the four people waiting at her door. They waved to her enthusiastically when they saw her.
Fang Qing pulled Zhao Shi'an to leave, but unexpectedly, he chased after them.
"Bean Sprout, you've seen me, why don't you come over and say hello? Come here and let me introduce you. This is your aunt, and this is your brother."
As he spoke, Wang's eldest uncle gave the girl a wink, and the girl quickly greeted Fang Qing.
"Bean Sprout, I'm your aunt."
The girl and the old woman looked very similar; both were thin and had somewhat fierce-looking faces.
Fang Qing had no liking for her whatsoever and didn't even say a word to her.
"Little boat, from now on she's your older sister, quickly say hello to her."
Little Xiao Chuan was still young and didn't understand things. He would obediently do whatever his grandfather asked him to do, and when he walked up to Fang Qing, he would obediently call her "sister".
Fang Qing pulled Zhao Shi'an back a step.
"I already made myself clear to you last time, why did you still come?"
“Bean Sprout, stop fooling around. This concerns your father’s entire life. You will also get married in the future. Can you guarantee that you will take care of your father for the rest of your life? Your father needs a son to support him in his old age. Don’t be jealous and deliberately prevent your father from adopting a son.”
Wang's eldest uncle then began to criticize Fang Qing.
Fang Qing rolled her eyes at him.
"Do you think I don't know what you're up to? I advise you to save your troubles. My family is doing just fine!"
As she spoke, Fang Qing grabbed Zhao Shi'an and ran off.
When Fang Daniu learned that the Wang family had sent more people, he thought of going back to explain things, but they had already left by the afternoon.
After dinner, they rested in the alley for a while to cool off before going home to sleep.
I had just lain down when I was woken up by a knock on the door.
Fang Daniu opened the door, and standing outside was an old woman.
