The moment Xu Guiying came out, the main room fell silent.
Several people felt a chill run down their spines.
Why did Mom actually take it seriously?
Song Guomin pretended to be deaf and couldn't hear, while Liu Aimei pretended to feed Yan Yan and Lele.
Song Yangmin turned around and went back into the house first.
The third son, Song Anmin, darted around with his eyes wide open. "Mom and Dad, why don't you eat some more? This was made by my sister-in-law. It's rare for her to cook."
What do you mean by that?
Liu Aimei rolled her eyes at the third brother.
No one paid any attention to Song Anmin. He coughed twice and, trying to make himself less noticeable, shoveled another mouthful of rice into his mouth.
Xu Guiying sneered, "Fine, you don't have to pay. Tonight's meal will be your last meal at home. You can leave after you finish eating. One night is enough time to pack your things."
The fifth brother, Song Jianmin, jumped up and down.
"Mom, are you going to kick us all out?" The fifth son was shocked. Was this really his mother?
Song Guomin couldn't help but complain in his heart. Why did his mother have to pull this stunt? They were the only family that received the most living expenses.
Song Anmin swallowed hard and looked at Xu Guiying.
"Mom, let's talk this out—"
Before she could finish speaking, Xu Guiying picked up the cold water on the table and splashed it on Song Anmin's face.
"You still have the nerve to whine to me? Your grandparents' business isn't over yet!"
Song Guomin narrowed his eyes slightly, "Third brother, what's wrong with grandpa and grandma?"
Song Anmin stiffened his neck and said, "It's nothing, Mom, can we talk about it later?"
At this moment, Song Xinfu waved his hand, utterly disappointed in his sons.
"Whether you explain or not is another matter. Now pay up and go out and ask around. Are there any other people like you who sponge off their parents? Aren't you afraid people will laugh at you?"
Song Anmin dared not let his parents reveal his grandparents' affair at this moment, so he had no choice but to pay up first.
"I'll give it to you, okay?"
Song Anmin looked at Xu Guiying and Song Xinfu with a pleading expression, begging them not to say anything, he was almost about to cry on the spot.
Song Rongrong and Song Yingying stared blankly at this scene.
Song Yangmin came out of the house with 36 yuan in his hand.
"Mom and Dad, I've been living at home for 6 months, and I'm giving you 36 yuan a month for living expenses."
Xu Guiying looked at her second son with a complicated expression.
Of the brothers in the family, the second oldest was the most honest.
Xu Guiying recalled that just six months later, her second son bravely saved a little girl, but ended up with a limp and lost his job. The girl's family was grateful, and the girl's aunt and the second son fell in love and got married.
Later, the house was sold, and the brothers all moved away. To save money, the second brother and his wife went to live with his wife in the countryside. The second brother worked in town, while his wife farmed at home.
Two or three decades have passed, and the second son and his wife look much older than the other brothers.
Xu Guiying wiped away the tears from the corners of her eyes and accepted the money.
"Second brother, you did the right thing." Xu Guiying nodded to the second brother, then looked at the eldest, third, and fifth brothers.
Anyway, Song Anmin was going to pay the money.
Only the eldest and the fifth brother remained, and both brothers were cursing the second brother for his lack of martial ethics.
The eldest brother couldn't save face, so he gave Liu Aimei a wink.
Liu Aimei looked sullen and reluctantly went inside.
Song Jianmin still didn't want to give it, but he thought he could sweet-talk his mother later and maybe she wouldn't have to give him the money.
The elderly couple, Xu Guiying and her husband, looked coldly at the expressions of those brats.
Just then, Liu Aimei screamed!
"My necklace is gone! My gold necklace is gone!"
Song Guomin got up and went into the house: "What happened!?"
The others had their own thoughts and didn't take the eldest couple's words to heart. The fifth brother was even still eating, assuming that his sister-in-law must have misplaced it and couldn't find it.
The commotion in the eldest son's room grew louder and louder.
Xu Guiying and Song Xinfu exchanged a glance and went into the house together.
"Where did you put it? Didn't you wear it yesterday?" Liu Aimei was extremely flustered, her eyes were red.
"I put it in the closet, it couldn't possibly be missing. Has someone been in my room?!"
Song Guomin frowned and looked at his brothers in the main room.
Xu Guiying took in the expressions of the two men.
With a stern face, she said, "Speak clearly if you have something to say. Liu Aimei, look again. Did it fall into the gap between the tables?"
That gold necklace was made with the money from the original bride price.
Liu Aimei cherished it dearly; every time she went out to play or visited her parents' home, she would definitely wear that gold necklace.
"Mom, really, I don't have it!" Now that the necklace is gone, the living expenses are a minor issue.
The second and third brothers also stood at the door.
Song Yangmin couldn't help but ask, "Could it be that the food was left in the kitchen?"
Liu Aimei snapped angrily, "I never wore it into the kitchen!"
Song Guomin's face darkened. "Who's home today?"
Song Yangmin: "Brother, what do you mean?"
Song Guomin was seething with anger. "It couldn't just disappear for no reason!"
Xu Guiying glanced at Song Guomin and said, "Alright, stop yelling. Look again."
Xu Guiying told the couple to continue searching in the room, while the others stayed in the main room.
Song Xinfu smoked with a sullen face.
There has never been any theft in our house. If anyone tries to steal from us, don't blame us for breaking their legs!
One mishap after another made Song Xinfu feel annoyed whenever he saw his sons.
The second, third, and fifth sons, along with Song Rongrong and Song Yingying, all watched over the elderly couple.
Xu Guiying sat in the chair and glanced at her brothers.
The third son met his mother's gaze and felt guilty. "Mom, why are you looking at me like that?"
Xu Guiying sneered, "I've already seen your second brother, fifth brother Rongrong, and Yingying, what's your hurry?!"
Song Anmin murmured, "That's because you guys were talking about me yesterday."
