Chapter 42 Zhang Guodong wants to inherit both houses
"Wanqing, Zhijie no longer has a father." Mother Zhang hugged her eldest grandson distressedly, tears streaming down her face. "You can't let him be without a family!"
"We are Zhijie's closest relatives, how could you bear to separate us from our flesh and blood!"
"Wow, wow, I want my grandma! I want my grandma!"
Zhijie stretched out his chubby, carrot-like fingers to Lin Wanqing, "Mom is the worst person in the world!"
If Lin Wanqing had been pointed at and called a bad person by her own son in her previous life, she would definitely be sad and heartbroken, but this time she felt no emotion at all.
She once poured all her efforts into raising and educating her with all her heart, but in the end, she could not withstand the badness of the Zhang family, which was inherent in her blood. She became the same as the Zhang family and watched her die in that cold winter.
Lin Wanqing will never remember how piercing the pain and cold it was.
She doesn't want this child in this life.
When everyone looked at the grandparents and grandchildren, they seemed to think of their own feelings towards the next generation, and began to persuade Lin Wanqing.
"Wanqing, why don't you wait until the children are older before letting them move out?"
"The child is still so young and needs help. They can help you."
"Oh, I can't watch this. I miss my grandson! My daughter-in-law also won't let me see my grandson. She looks down on me because I'm from the countryside!"
People are always like this, they like to look at things from their own perspective.
Lin Wanqing reached out to pull Zhang Zhijie.
Zhang Zhijie flapped his thick calves and fists and started punching and kicking Lin Wanqing.
"Go away! I hate you!" The little child was full of anger.
Aunt Zhang wiped her tears and deliberately said in front of everyone, "Wanqing, look at you, you don't usually take care of the child. The child doesn't even like you."
"This little kid sees it most clearly. He likes whoever treats him well."
Although the onlookers didn't say anything, they all agreed in their hearts.
Children don't have as many twists and turns as adults. Look at the way Zhijie defends his grandmother, and then look at Zhijie's physique, he must have been well taken care of by his grandmother.
Of course Zhang Zhijie wouldn't like her, Lin Wanqing knew it clearly.
Zhang Zhijie loves sweets. Lin Wanqing says children shouldn't eat too much sugar because it causes tooth decay, but Zhang's mother secretly gives him some. She says children can't just eat meat; they need a healthy diet with a combination of meat and vegetables. But when Lin Wanqing isn't looking, Zhang's mother stews bowl after bowl of pork belly for Zhang Zhijie, and the broth with rice is his favorite.
In Zhang Zhijie's eyes, Lin Wanqing is the biggest bad person. She opposes whatever he likes, so of course he likes his grandmother even more.
The whole family coaxed their only grandson, and Lin Wanqing became the worst person.
Zhijie's fist hit Lin Wanqing's face. Lin Wanqing seemed to feel no pain. She grabbed his hand tightly and shouted sternly: "Zhang Zhijie, you can't hit people. This is a bad habit!"
Zhang Zhijie's little eyes rolled around and he looked at Zhang Ma's aggrieved pout.
"Wanqing, Zhijie is just a child. Why are you so strict?" Aunt Zhang reached out to snatch the child from Lin Wanqing's hands. "That's why the child doesn't like you. You have to coax him. You really don't act like a mother."
Lin Wanqing didn't let go, but her voice softened as she coaxed him, "Okay, I'll coax him."
"Come and tell mom, do you want some candy?"
When Zhang Zhijie heard the word "tang", his eyes immediately lit up and he stopped crying. He wiped his nose and said, "I do!"
"Okay, then tell mom that you said she was mean. Did grandma teach you that? If you tell mom, I'll give you candy."
Aunt Zhang was anxious and guilty. She rushed over to snatch the child from Lin Wanqing's hands, "Lin Wanqing, what are you teaching the child to say?"
Zhang Zhijie nodded and said without hesitation, "Yes, it was grandma who told me to say something bad about mom! She told me to beg mom not to chase grandma and uncle away. If I told her, she would give me candy!"
At this moment, everyone present showed incredible expressions.
"Isn't this teaching children bad things?"
"How can adults teach children to lie?"
"It seems we can't let them take care of the children. They're teaching them bad things!"
"You can't trust everything this kid says..."
Well, public opinion immediately changed.
Lin Wanqing let go of Zhang Zhijie and looked down at Zhang Ma. "Is this how you usually educate your children?"
"My good child has been corrupted by you. You should move out of my house as soon as possible to avoid corrupting the child."
Zhang Guodong was about to open his mouth when Director Zhou interrupted him, "Alright, I've already understood your situation. Hurry up and pack up and move."
"Zhang Guodong, don't make this a big deal. It will be difficult to resolve and it will be embarrassing."
Zhang Guodong knew that this matter could not withstand scrutiny, and his current identity was Zhang Guoliang. He had no idea what Zhang Guoliang had done before. If he was implicated in any illegal activities, he would have no place to complain.
No matter how reluctant he was, Zhang Guodong had no choice but to pull Zhang Ma up and drag him forward.
He turned his head and looked at Zhang Zhijie, he was really angry.
What about his son? How come he has no cleverness at all and only knows how to eat? Maybe he takes after Lin Wanqing.
Yang Aihua also hurried to catch up, and when she passed by Lin Wanqing, she secretly glanced at her.
The look Zhang Guodong gave Lin Wanqing in the bank made Yang Aihua feel an unprecedented sense of crisis.
So when Lin Wanqing made trouble this time, she didn't say anything. She actually wanted to move out.
After all, Zhang Guodong and Lin Wanqing were husband and wife before, living under the same roof every day. What if they got together again?
Zhang Guodong was a man with weak willpower, otherwise she would not have been able to seduce him so easily.
It’s good to be far away. As long as they have money, they can still live well and eat well.
Seeing that the matter had finally come to a conclusion, Lin Wanqing thanked Director Zhou and the villagers before returning home.
As soon as Zhang Guodong and his friends arrived at the Lin Mansion, they went into Zhang Ma's room and began to secretly discuss countermeasures.
"Are we really going to move out?" Aunt Zhang sighed, looking around reluctantly, touching the huanghuali chair in her hand, her heart really aching as if it were being cut by a knife.
She had been in the Lin family for more than 20 years and was used to living in a house like this. She felt that moving out to suffer in the "slums" was too hard and unbearable.
"Let's move out." Yang Aihua persuaded, "Guodong has a lot of stuff stored in the bank safe. As long as we get it, our food, clothing, housing and transportation will still be of good quality in the future."
"I don't have to look at the capitalist lady's face here, how great is that?"
Zhang Guodong also sighed, "I thought this Lin Mansion would be mine in the end."
"Don't worry about that." Yang Aihua said with a smile, "Lin Wanqing only has one child. From now on, all these will belong to Zhijie. You are Zhijie's father, so doesn't that mean all these will be yours?"
"These things will belong to our Zhang family sooner or later!"
Aunt Zhang shook her head. "If Lin Wanqing remarried, she would have to have another child, right? How could it be Zhijie's turn?"
Yang Aihua snorted, "Lin Wanqing is born here, who will she marry in the future?"
"Ordinary people can't protect her, and officials don't dare marry her, fearing it will hinder progress."
"Besides, given Miss Jiao's temper, she wouldn't be interested in finding a peasant."
"She won't be able to marry."
Yang Aihua thought viciously that it would be best for Lin Wanqing to die alone in the rest of her life. Zhang Zhijie and the others must get her so that she, as her mother, cannot even look at her. This would be the greatest revenge for a mother.
She lowered her eyes and looked at Zhang Zhijie who was lying on the bed and sleeping soundly. "Let the child and Wanqing be intimate for the next few days."
Then Yang Aihua's lips curled up into a sinister smile, "When their mother-son relationship is deep, we will separate them."
"When the time comes, if Lin Wanqing wants to see the child, she'll have no choice but to please us."
Zhang Ma and Zhang Guodong nodded frequently.
In fact, Zhang Guodong never thought that Lin Wanqing would remarry because he knew how much Lin Wanqing loved him.
He could remember every detail of their past. Although he was acting, he could see Lin Wanqing's love and dependence on him in her eyes.
Especially when Lin Wanqing heard the news of his death, she fainted several times from crying, which shows how much this woman loved him.
Zhang Guodong kept one last trump card. At worst, he would confess to Lin Wanqing in the end. Judging from Lin Wanqing's feelings for him, she would definitely be secretly glad to have regained what she had lost.
Then all the things of the Lin family still belong to him.
Of course, he would only do this as a last resort. In fact, he could also inherit both branches... Zhang Guodong thought to himself.
Several people were discussing something in the room when they suddenly smelled a smell of smoke and fire.
Like something is burning.
"Where is the fire?" Aunt Zhang smelled the smell and pushed the door open and walked out.
Zhang Guodong and Yang Aihua also followed him out.
The smell came from the yard, and gray smoke was floating everywhere.
Lin Wanqing took a basin and seemed to be burning something.
The flickering flames devoured, bit by bit, the things that Lin Wanqing threw in, turning them into ashes.
Zhang Guodong didn't care at first, but when he saw clearly what Lin Wanqing was burning, he rushed over like crazy.
