Old Man Liang was frightened by the fierce anger in Liang Jinheng's tone.
He even had an illusion that if he wasn't Liang Jinheng's father, he might have hit him.
Old Man Liang felt uneasy, oppressed by Liang Jinheng's gaze, and could only speak vaguely: "Yes, it was saved by your mother and I..."
Seeing that he still didn't tell the truth, Liang Jinheng was so angry that he couldn't hold it in any longer.
He gritted his teeth and said to Old Man Liang, "You're still lying to me at this point! Isn't it enough that you've lied to me for so many years?"
That’s four hundred yuan, not forty yuan!
Seeing that he couldn't hide it from Liang Jinheng anymore, Old Man Liang could only sigh bitterly and said, "This money, this money is yours... But there's nothing we can do. Your brother is still so young. He can't be a farmer in the countryside his whole life. He got that job with great difficulty. If we don't take action, someone else will take it away. So we can only..."
"So what can I do? The money I sent to my children and Wen Wan can only be taken away by you, and then used to buy a job for Liang Jinbu?" Liang Jinheng was so angry that he almost laughed.
"He's my brother. If he has any problems, you should just tell me directly. I will definitely help in any way I can. But you took all the money I sent back without saying a word. What about my wife and children? Have you ever thought about them?"
Liang Jinheng's questioning made Old Man Liang dare not even raise his head. He could only mumble, "No, they are at home, and they don't spend much money..."
How much money can't be spent?
I’m afraid I have no money to spend!
They were so generous in paying 400 yuan for the job, which shows that the money they had could only be more than 400 yuan, not less.
Thinking back on the money he had sent back over the years, Liang Jinheng could no longer count it.
But at this moment he could only realize one thing, that is, most of the money he sent to Wen Wan was probably intercepted by his parents!
Liang Jinheng said angrily: "How much of the money I gave to Wen Wan have you taken over the years? I will carefully calculate it and tell me clearly what you shouldn't have spent or used!"
After saying this, Liang Jinheng walked towards his room with a grim face.
Fortunately, he always does things in an orderly manner. He still has the remittance slips he sent back before, and every amount of money on them is evidence that he sent it back.
As for how much of it fell into Wen Wan's hands, he would ask Wen Wan and then count it.
There is no reason for him to use the money he worked so hard to earn outside to subsidize his younger brother!
When he entered the room, Wen Wan was sitting on the edge of the bed looking at him, with an expression that seemed as if she wanted to say something but hesitated.
Liang Jinheng and Old Man Liang were making such a loud noise outside just now, she couldn't hear it because she was deaf.
What surprised Wen Wan was that Liang Jinheng actually quarreled with Old Man Liang over four hundred yuan.
He had sent so much money to his parents before, and they didn't seem to feel bad about it, so why is he suddenly starting to care about it now?
Wen Wan was just wondering when she saw Liang Jinheng asking her seriously.
"Wanwan, do you have any idea how much money my mother has given you over the years?"
Wen Wan came back to her senses and asked, "Why are you asking this?"
"I..." Liang Jinheng wanted to say that he wanted to check how much money his parents had withheld from her, but when he met Wen Wan's eyes, he suddenly couldn't say the words.
It's regret, remorse, and self-blame.
If he had written Wen Wan's name instead of his father's name as the recipient of the remittance slips and letters, would the current situation not have happened?
Before he got married, the remittance slips and letters to his family were always written in his father's name. Later, after he got married, he thought about changing it and dividing the money into two parts, one for his family and one for Wen Wan. But his mother persuaded him that it had been sent like this for so many years and there was no need to change it. She also said that in the future, his father could pick up the part he sent to Wen Wan in town and bring it back to Wen Wan, so as to save Wen Wan the trouble.
He listened to his mother and did not change the recipient's name.
This is why the money he sent to Wen Wan over the years was withheld by his parents.
At the beginning, he never imagined that his parents would do such a thing. Not only did they withhold food from Wen Wan and the two children, they even embezzled the money he sent to Wen Wan!
If he had known this would happen, he would have separated the money no matter what!
Liang Jinheng thought of this and felt regretful and blamed himself.
Seeing that he was silent, Wen Wan suppressed her annoyance and said, "I may have received more than a hundred yuan from your mother in the past four years, but I spent the money a long time ago. Is it interesting for you to calculate this account now?"
Four years, more than one hundred yuan.
Liang Jinheng's anger, which had just subsided, instantly rose again.
The amount of money he has sent to Wen Wan over the years is probably more than a thousand, if not two thousand.
In the end, Wen Wan only got a little over a hundred?!
This number made Liang Jinheng so angry that his eyes almost turned red.
Even though he already knew that his parents had deducted a lot of money from Wen Wan, he didn't expect that they would deduct so much money from him!
A full one-tenth! Even if they gave Wen Wan half the money, he wouldn't have such a strong resentment!
Liang Jinheng clenched his fists tightly, his nails digging deep into his flesh without him crying out in pain.
He has no right to cry out in pain.
Because Wen Wan’s life over the years must have been more painful than his heart now!
His eyes were red, and he tried his best to suppress his temper so as not to scare the child and Wen Wan. He said, "You stay in the room with the child. I'm going to the main room to talk about something."
After saying that, he turned and left.
He didn't even want to verify the remittance slip because there was no point in verifying it.
More than a hundred yuan and more than a thousand yuan. Is it necessary for him to calculate how much money they took?
Wen Wan saw that his face looked bad and he looked like he was going to cause trouble, so she had an idea and of course didn't want to miss this good opportunity.
"Wait a minute, I'll go with you!"
Although she was not sure whether Liang Jinheng reacted this way because of what she had just said about taking only over a hundred yuan, it was obvious that he was planning to settle accounts with Miao Chunhong and the others for the money he had sent back over the years.
And judging from Liang Jinheng's expression, it was obvious that she shouldn't have received such a small amount of money.
Wen Wan also wanted to know how much money Liang Jinheng had sent back over the years, and how much money he had sent to her!
Before this, Miao Chunhong and Old Man Liang asked Liang Jinbu to go to the town to withdraw the money, and she had never seen it.
Even Miao Chunhong would only call her over to give her some money during the holidays, saying that it was the holiday money Liang Jinheng sent back for her and the children. As for anything else, there was no more.
Anyway, in her impression, most of the money Liang Jinheng sent back was given to Old Man Liang and his family, her and the children. In Miao Chunhong's words, they provided her with food and clothing, and their two children were also raised by them. She was already happy enough, so of course the money Liang Jinheng sent back had to be used to take care of the whole family first.
Therefore, in Wenwan's understanding, the majority of the money Liang Jinheng sent back went to the Liang family, and only a small amount was given to her and the children.
Upon hearing this, Liang Jinheng originally wanted to persuade Wen Wan not to go, because he was afraid that he would get angry, the scene would become ugly, and Wen Wan would be scared.
But seeing Wen Wan's firm attitude, he could only nod.
Wen Wan then told Da Wa to take Er Niu to play in the house and not to go out, then she closed the door and went to the main house with Liang Jinheng.
In the main house.
Miao Chunhong was looking at Liang Jinbu with heartache. There were red marks on her son's neck!
This damn Liang Jinheng is crazy, he hits so hard!
Seeing the old man coming in with a deeply frown on his face and a worried look on his face, she scolded him without thinking: "I told you to teach Liang Jinheng a lesson, why did you come back looking like a jerk? What's the matter? Your good son doesn't even care about you, his father!"
The sarcastic tone made Old Man Liang, who was already in a bad mood, look gloomy for a rare time.
He looked at Miao Chunhong with a dark gaze and said angrily, "Shut up!"
Old Man Liang doesn't lose his temper easily, and he rarely does, so when he does lose his temper he can be quite scary.
Miao Chunhong and Liang Jinbu looked at him in surprise.
Miao Chunhong's tone became stammering: "You, why are you being so mean to me? I can just go and teach Liang Jinheng a lesson later! Why do you have to be so mean to me, really?"
Old Man Liang listened to her repeatedly lecturing Liang Jinheng and sneered, "Teach him a lesson? I wonder if you'll ever have that chance again!"
What does this mean?
Miao Chunhong was stunned.
She thought to herself that no matter how stubborn and bad-tempered Liang Jinheng was, he was still the son of old man Liang, and also Miao Chunhong's nominal eldest son. As a mother, couldn't she teach her son a lesson?
Miao Chunhong glanced at Old Man Liang who was lighting a cigarette nearby. Without thinking much, she just felt that Old Man Liang might have been mad at Liang Jinheng, so he said such angry words.
She just heard Liang Jinheng talking loudly in the yard, but because the red brick house they lived in had good sound insulation, she couldn't hear it clearly.
"Your father is such a coward. He only dares to be mean to me but not to Liang Jinheng!" Miao Chunhong walked to Liang Jinbu and whispered to him while rolling her eyes.
Liang Jinbu ignored him. He was currently upset about not being able to get a permanent job.
Big brother Liang Jinheng doesn't agree to send the director's son to the army. How is he going to explain this to the director tomorrow?
He should have been at work at this time today, but Liang Hongling went to the town in a hurry to find him yesterday, saying that something happened at home and his eldest brother had returned, and asked him to come back quickly. His boss heard about it, so he specially approved a day off for him to come back.
However, before leaving, the director called him into the office and told him implicitly that after letting him go home today, he hoped he would talk to his elder brother about the matter, and said that once his elder brother had settled the matter, he could get his permanent job when he returned to work tomorrow.
This is also the reason why Liang Jinbu is so impatient.
If the director knew that his attempt to persuade his elder brother for help had failed, not to mention the matter of becoming a regular employee, the most important thing was, would the director still be nice to him after he returned?
His director is a petty person to begin with, and he'll probably find an opportunity to make things difficult for him!
Liang Jinbu was almost annoyed to death. How could his elder brother be like this? He completely ignored his younger brother's future. A person like him was not worthy of being his elder brother!
"I'm making progress. What's wrong with you? Are you feeling unwell? Do you want me to call a doctor for you?"
Miao Chunhong looked at Liang Jinbu with concern, as he looked unhappy.
Liang Jinbu looked at her irritably. "I'm not feeling well at all. I'm feeling bad inside! I'll never be able to get a permanent job in my lifetime. I've been screwed over by Big Brother my whole life!"
Miao Chunhong's face changed.
"How can this be so serious? Isn't it just that we failed to become a regular employee this time? We can look for another opportunity next time, right?"
She also knew that Liang Jinbu's leader had asked him for help and promised to make Liang Jinbu a regular employee if the task was completed, but she didn't expect that if the task wasn't completed, he would never be able to get a regular employee in his entire life?
"Did the leader really say that? Why is the leader like this? Who can guarantee that this matter can be done well? What a crappy leader! Isn't this nonsense?" Miao Chunhong scolded the leader angrily.
In her opinion, there is something wrong with this leader.
"What's the point of saying this now! I'm just a temporary worker. If they want me to leave, just let me go. What can I do?" Liang Jinbu gritted his teeth and kicked the table hard.
That look made Miao Chunhong very anxious. She hoped her son wouldn't get into any trouble because of anger.
"Is this matter really that serious? Why don't you go talk to your eldest brother about it?"
Liang Jinbu couldn't bear to hear his elder brother's name and would explode as soon as he heard it.
"You're still going to find him? You're upset that he didn't kill me, right? He already said that if he heard me say this in front of him, he would beat me up. And you still asked me to ask him if you are my real mother!"
Miao Chunhong was not angry when he scolded her, but instead joined him in scolding Liang Jinheng.
"That damn boss, he's not even willing to help with such a small favor. Is he still a human being? Son, wait, I'll go teach him a lesson and make him help you solve this problem!"
For the sake of her son's future, Miao Chunhong decided to bite the bullet and go find Liang Jinheng, no matter how scary his face was, she had to make him agree!
But just as she turned around to open the door, it was pushed open from the outside.
At first glance, the person coming was Liang Jinheng!
But Miao Chunhong also noticed that Wen Wan was beside Liang Jinheng, and her face immediately drooped.
"Why are you here?"
She really couldn't look at Wen Wan in a good mood right now.
Miao Chunhong felt disgusted with her when she thought about how she had been saying bad things about their family in Liang Jinheng's ear since yesterday, causing Liang Jinheng to move all the food out of their house and being so rude to her younger brother Liang Jinbu.
That’s right, she felt that all the changes in Liang Jinheng were because of Wen Wan.
She must have done something behind the scenes, some trick or other, that's why Liang Jinheng has changed so much!
Miao Chunhong didn't want to be nice to her, and Wen Wan was too lazy to pay attention to her.
She stood beside Liang Jinheng and reminded him, "You have something to say, so say it now. It's a good opportunity to clarify things in front of everyone."
She would no longer be polite to Old Man Liang, Miao Chunhong, or even the whole family of Liang Jinbu and Liang Hongling.
They treated me like that before, and if I still bow down to them now, I'd rather die than not.
Wenwan's strange attitude made Miao Chunhong realize that something was wrong.
But she still didn't think that Liang Jinheng came to settle the score with her. She just thought that Wen Wan had whispered something in Liang Jinheng's ear, asking him to come and cause trouble.
"Wen Wan, what do you mean? You don't stay home to take care of the children, and you only know how to make trouble. Go out and see which young wife is like you, messing up the whole family!"
After teaching Wen Wan a lesson, Miao Chunhong said to Liang Jinheng with a stern face.
Of course, when she talked about Liang Jinheng, she didn't dare to use the same arrogant tone as before.
"Boss, you say the same thing. Do you just listen to everything your wife says? How can a grown man like you let your wife be the boss? What does she know? She does nothing at home all day long. She just makes up stories!"
Wen Wan just smiled coldly when she heard this, and looked at Miao Chunhong as if she was a fool.
Anyone with a discerning eye could see that something was wrong with Liang Jinheng, but she still thought she was just ignoring him.
The moment Old Man Liang saw Liang Jinheng and Wen Wan coming over, his hand trembled and the cigarette fell to the ground.
He looked at Liang Jinheng with a pale face.
Is the boss really coming to settle accounts with them?
He thought, he thought what he just said was just angry words!
Liang Jinheng glanced at Miao Chunhong coldly, and in response to her scolding Wen Wan, he directly refuted: "I wanted to come here. If you want to scold me, scold me. This matter has nothing to do with Wan Wan."
Miao Chunhong seemed to realize that something was wrong only then.
Why is it that Liang Jinheng looks at her with such cold eyes, as if he still hates her?
What did she do?
Could it be that he knew something?
Miao Chunhong's face changed and she subconsciously looked at Old Man Liang who was sitting in the dark.
Old man Liang's face was pale at this moment, as if he had already anticipated the scene at the moment and was helpless.
Miao Chunhong's heart skipped a beat.
Even the old man has this expression, it must be that something big is going to happen!
"Hey, boss, why do you look like that? What happened? Don't scare me..." Miao Chunhong was unsure.
Liang Jinheng looked at her expressionlessly, then glanced at Old Man Liang who was sitting in the corner and didn't dare to look him in the eye.
"How much of the money I sent to Wen Wan over the years have you embezzled? Pay it all back now."
Boom——!
These words were like a powerful explosion, successfully shocking everyone in the room except Wen Wan and Liang Jinheng.
"W-what?"
After a long while, Miao Chunhong spoke in disbelief, "Boss, what did you just say?"
Could she have heard it wrong?
Liang Jinheng is asking them for money, asking them to pay it back!
"Where do we have money? We don't have any money. We didn't take Wen Wan's money. Boss, are you mistaken?!"
Miao Chunhong's palms were sweating, but she refused to admit it.
joke!
The money is already in her hands, how could she possibly take it out?
Besides, she has given Wen Wan money over the years. Didn’t she give her dozens of dollars during festivals?
She never goes out or goes to town. She just takes care of the children at home all day long and provides them with food and drink. There is no need for her to spend any money. That money has long been used to cover household expenses!
In a word, Miao Chunhong did not admit that she took Wen Wan's money!
Seeing that she refused to admit it even if she was beaten to death, Liang Jinheng's heart turned cold.
He looked at Old Man Liang, who was avoiding his gaze, and asked in a deep voice, "Dad, tell me, how much did you take?"
When Old Man Liang was called, his body stiffened. Even though he didn't want to confront Liang Jinheng anymore, he could only look up at this moment.
But the look he gave Liang Jinheng was clearly pleading, as if he wanted Liang Jinheng to stop making trouble.
"Boss, let's let the past go. From now on, our family will live a good life and not talk about those things. Okay, just for Dad's sake, don't ask anymore..."
Liang Jinheng pursed his lips tightly and asked sternly, "Is it over? You can get over it with just one word, but I can't!"
He glanced at Old Man Liang and Miao Chunhong again and snorted coldly.
"You don't want to talk about it, right? Well, then I don't mind just selling Liang Jinbu's job. At least I can get four hundred dollars in return!"
"Brother?"
"You dare!"
Liang Jinbu's voice of disbelief and Miao Chunhong's roar rang out at the same time.
When it comes to her son's interests and future, Miao Chunhong certainly can't play dumb anymore.
She looked at Liang Jinheng angrily, her tone sharp and harsh.
"You're the progressive elder brother, but how could you do such a cruel thing! He's your younger brother, and you finally got a job, but not only do you not try to help him get a permanent position, you even want to ruin his job! Liang Jinheng, just think to yourself, do you still have a conscience? I'm afraid it's been eaten by dogs!"
"And what about the money you mentioned for Wen Wan? No, nothing! You weren't home all these years, and we took care of the old and young at home. Wen Wan never worked a day in the production team, never earned a single work point, and had food and drink at home, just like a young lady in the old society. Your father and I still had to work in the fields, but she didn't. Do you think it's not expensive to raise a young lady like her?"
"And your two children! Other children know how to go to the fields to help adults when they are two or three years old, but they don't go. They just play outside every day and don't help with anything at home. They don't even have to pay for food and drink!"
"Your father and I are almost dying just from supporting these three children. Shouldn't you use the money you sent back to help ease the burden on the family? It's all gone. If you want to find more, you can go to the toilet!"
Miao Chunhong knew what Liang Jinheng's weakness was, which was that he couldn't stay at home with his wife and children. Otherwise, he wouldn't have come to say hello to her and his father every time he left home, and ask them to help take care of Wen Wan and the children.
In front of him, Miao Chunhong and Old Man Liang of course agreed and said they would help take care of it for him.
But once he turns around, it’s not certain who will take care of whom.
But no matter what, as long as she said that the old couple helped her, Liang Jinheng would never say anything!
Sure enough, Liang Jinheng fell silent after hearing this.
Of course he knew that what Miao Chunhong said was definitely not true, but because he had not been at home for many years, he had no idea how Wen Wan and the two children lived, so he had no way to refute it.
But he had no way to say it, but Wen Wan, as the person involved, had something to say.
She looked at Miao Chunhong coldly and said.
"When you say care, do you mean that Da Wa and Er Niu and I have to go hungry and cold every day, cook for the whole family, clean the house, and wait on my sister-in-law? And then you send us out to the river to wash clothes in the middle of winter?"
"Big Boy and Second Girl didn't do anything for you, but as their grandmother, have you ever done anything for them? When I was in confinement, my mother came over before dawn and left in the dark. As their mother-in-law, have you ever lent a hand?!"
As for my father-in-law, Old Man Liang.
Haha, he didn’t do anything and didn’t order her around, but based on his cold and indifferent attitude, Wen Wan felt that he was as disgusting as Miao Chunhong!
It’s just that one is disgusting in public, while the other is sinister and scheming behind the scenes!
"Other parents-in-law wouldn't snatch their grandchildren's food away even if they don't like them. But you, on the other hand, snatched all the milk powder from Da Wa and Er Niu. Tell me, are you still a human being?"
Wen Wan brought up one thing after another, and Miao Chunhong's face turned red.
She pointed at Wen Wan and said angrily, "You, you, you, what are you talking about! When have I ever bullied you? Don't talk nonsense, you dead vixen. If I had known earlier, I would have stopped you from entering the house. The boss was led astray by you, a vixen. You are such a conscienceless thing. You have made our whole family restless. Get out of here, get out of our Liang family!"
When Liang Jinheng heard Miao Chunhong still had the nerve to tell Wen Wan to get out of the Liang family, he finally couldn't stand it anymore and shouted angrily: "Enough!"
He looked at Miao Chunhong with gritted teeth.
If this person wasn't his mother, he really wanted to tell her to get out of here.
"Wen Wan is the wife I married. I know her very well! Besides, she didn't tell me these things. I even wish she had told me earlier!"
If Wen Wan had told him the matter earlier, he could have saved everything earlier.
Miao Chunhong was furious and frightened when she heard what Liang Jinheng said. She didn't dare to look Liang Jinheng in the eye, who was as fierce as a lion. She could only run to Old Man Liang, grab him, and cry, "You dead old man, are you dead? Don't you see what your son is doing now? He doesn't even recognize me as his mother for a wife. Why don't you think of a solution quickly!"
Old man Liang's collar was pulled crooked by her, but he didn't have the energy to blame him at this moment.
He thought of a way, what way could he think of!
He couldn't do anything about this kid Liang Jinheng!
He looked at Liang Jinheng again, and met his heavy gaze that was suppressing his anger. Old man Liang let out a sigh of resignation.
"Stop making trouble and give them the remaining money..."
That's total giving up.
Because he could see that if they didn't give Liang Jinheng and Wen Wan a good explanation for what happened today, he would not let it go.
It is said that no one knows a son better than his father. Liang Jinheng has always been a man who does what he says.
Since he dared to say it, he would definitely go to the town and sell his second son Liang Jinbu's job.
He has that ability.
Miao Chunhong was stunned, then screamed, "What! What are we going to do if we give them the money?"
At this moment, she had forgotten that she was still pretending to be poor and penniless in front of Liang Jinheng.
"No, I don't agree!"
She had already planned the remaining money: one part would be used for her son Liang Jinbu to buy a house and get married in town, one part would be used as a dowry for her daughter Liang Hongling, and the rest would be used as retirement money for the couple.
All the money here is of great use. What should we do if we give it to Liang Jinheng and the others?
