Chapter 207



"What was taken away by us? Back then, the family was not divided, and your brother's and your wages had to be handed over to the family. Isn't this normal?" Xu Mingshan defended himself.

Xu Huaian smiled sarcastically and said nothing. At this point, he no longer wanted to figure out the right and wrong. Anyway, he didn't owe the Xu family anything in this life.

"But second brother, I would like to ask you, where did your wife get the money? She was so poor that she sold herself to pay for her mother's medical treatment. How come she can suddenly come up with money now?" This was the question that Xu Mingshan was concerned about.

Xu Huaizhi also had some questions and looked like he was listening attentively.

Logically speaking, the second son's trip to Beijing for medical treatment should have cost a lot of money, but his family didn't seem to be short of money.

Look at the clothes they are wearing, all of them are brand new cotton-padded jackets, and the patterns and styles are all city styles.

And the meal on the table at home tonight is very oily.

It doesn't look like he's short of money.

Xu Huaian and Gu Qinghuan were afraid that this would happen one day, and people would suspect the source of their money. After all, Gu Qinghuan still had to live in the village, so they had already thought of a way to deal with it.

"Well, it was my mother-in-law who had foresight. Before she was sent down to the countryside, she had already bought a property for my daughter-in-law. Because the house was in my daughter-in-law's name, it was not confiscated.

Before, she thought my wife was too young to keep watch, so she didn't tell her.

Just this time, when she went back, she explained the matter of the house to my wife.

My wife rented out the house and used the money to pay for my medical treatment and our family expenses.

This annual rent is almost enough for our family to live on.

A relative of her family saw that I, a man, didn’t work and stayed at home eating and drinking with my wife every day. She couldn’t stand it anymore and introduced me to a temporary job so that I could at least support my family.”

Anyway, the house is far away in Beijing, and they don't know the specific situation.

In this way, they can find a source for the family's expenses and avoid suspicion. As for what others say, just let it be, as long as they are comfortable.

Xu Mingshan and Xu Huaizhi's eyes widened!

Real estate in Beijing? It must be worth a lot of money.

Doesn't that mean that the whole family can move to Beijing in the future?

Xu Mingshan couldn't help but regret it, and he regretted it so much that his intestines turned green.

At the beginning, Liu Guifang also mentioned that she wanted to marry Gu Qinghuan to the third brother, but he felt that Gu Qinghuan's status was problematic and was afraid of being implicated by his in-laws, so he disagreed.

It turned out that Gu Qinghuan was a sweetheart and a lucky girl. Not only did she cure the second son's illness after she got married, she also led her family to live a comfortable life and even owned a property.

It was they who promised her to the third brother, so aren't they the ones who are living a comfortable life now? And the real estate in Beijing, just thinking about it makes me jealous.

He didn't even think about the fact that it would be strange for Gu Qinghuan to fall in love with Xu Huaiyu.

Xu Huaizhi was also a little disappointed with envy.

His wife, Lin Xiaomeng, is also from Beijing, but her situation is very different from Gu Qinghuan's. Lin Xiaomeng's family is full of vampires.

Since getting married, Lin Xiaomeng has never mentioned going back to her parents' home, nor has she taken Xu Huaizhi back to visit.

Every letter from her parents' home contained money and food, but never a grain of rice or even a grain of bran.

Of course, when Lin Xiaomeng was in a good mood, she would inevitably send some bad things over, but when she was in a bad mood, she would pretend not to see it. Over the past few years, they have been living in peace.

It seems that the Gu family is still well-off. Before Gu Qinghuan's mother was sent down to the countryside, she was still thinking about buying a property for her daughter. She must have been a favored child at home.

But he changed his mind and thought that even though his family didn't look as good as his now, he was still making a living by his own ability.

The second son is like being sent to live under a fence. He is not comfortable at home and has to look at his wife's face. This is the truth.

Thinking this way, he finally understood.

"Second brother, don't worry about being a temporary worker. You should do your job well and stand on your own feet first."

"Brother 꺶 is right. I think so too." Xu Huaian nodded repeatedly.

"By the way, don't tell anyone about these things in my family. I'm afraid my wife will be angry." Xu Huaian deliberately reminded.

It would be better if he told others about it, so that everyone would know that he was afraid of his wife and that he spent his wife's money. Only then could their family live in peace.

Xu Huaizhi assured: "Let me go, I won't say anything nonsense."

Xu Mingshan also nodded, but no one knew what he was thinking.

In the next room, Gu Qinghuan had no idea that someone had ruined her reputation.

I believe that within a few days, the entire Xu family will know that Gu Qinghuan is a powerful person who has suppressed Xu Huai'an to death.

But who makes our family rich?

The three children chatted for a while, and seeing that it was hopeless to find a job for the third child and the food was finished, Xu Mingshan stood up and prepared to leave.

Before leaving, Xu Mingshan said to the two brothers: "Tomorrow is the 30th. At noon, both of your families can come over for lunch. Although we are now separated, this is the rule and cannot be broken."

Xu Huaian looked confused. Has the family been divided?

He just found out now!

It was also his fault that he had never visited the old house since he came back, let alone gone out for a stroll, and that he had not been told this explosive news.

Gu Qinghuan did hear the news from Chen Fengqin, but to her, it didn't matter whether the Xu family split up or not.

So she also forgot to tell Xu Huaian.

But Xu Huaian hesitated for two seconds. Who cares? Whether they break up or not, or how they break up, it has nothing to do with him.

It's just that he felt a little strange. According to the personalities of Xu Mingshan and Liu Guifang, this family would probably be inseparable even if the sky fell. Why did they suddenly split up like this?

Something must have happened in between!

Xu Huaizhi agreed readily. He could still accept having a meal together only once a year during the Chinese New Year or other festivals.

It's better than being entangled with each other every day before.

Their lives were indeed much more comfortable after the separation.

Xu Huaizhi nodded, and Xu Huai'an hesitated for a few seconds: "I, I'll ask my wife first!"

The main thing is that he doesn't know whether Gu Qinghuan wants to go or not. What if she wants to go? It's better not to refuse too hard.

Xu Mingshan glared at him with hatred.

"I think you are completely spineless now. You listen to your wife in everything. It's ridiculous for a man to be controlled by a woman!"

Xu Huai'an also said with a proud look: "My wife used money to save my life, took good care of me, and saved me from the bed to this point. Why shouldn't I listen to her?

It's better than some people who take my money, kick me out, come back when they need me, and throw me away when they don't.

Let me make this clear, my wife has the final say in our family, no one else’s words have any influence.”

Xu Mingshan's teeth itched at his sarcasm.

"You...you...whatever you want!" He was really embarrassed and left angrily.

Xu Huaizhi did not go with him, but stayed behind. Fortunately, he hadn't told Lao Er that he had something else to say to Lao Er.

"Second brother, I'm telling you, no matter how they force you, don't give Third Brother any help. It's a bottomless pit, and there's no end to it," Xu Huaizhi said distressedly.

Xu Huaian saw that he seemed to be hiding something, as if he was saying something with a different meaning, so he got up and went to the main room to get a bottle of two hotpots and a plate of crispy pork.

Two people and one glass is full.

"Brother, I noticed that you took good care of the third child in the past, what about this time?

By the way, I haven’t asked you yet, when did the family split up? What happened? According to what the old couple said, I thought the family would never be divided in their lifetime, but I didn’t expect it to be divided like this.”

"Second brother, you don't know how hard it is to be the eldest brother!"

Xu Huaizhi drank a glass of wine directly, and then began to tell Xu Huai'an everything that had happened in the Xu family during this period.

"I used to think that as the eldest brother among my brothers, it was okay for me to take care of my younger siblings.

But do you think the third brother really regards me as his brother?

I have supported him all these years, found him a job time and again, helped him with his business, and arranged for him to get married. I am a complete and utter victim.

He is now in high spirits, having married the city wife he dreamed of, and will soon become a father, with his mother-in-law supporting him in all matters at home.

I thought of my poor child, and I was filled with hatred! Xu Laosan didn't even say a word of apology, and just let it go so easily.

You don't know, your sister-in-law has been treating me like a nobody since she had a miscarriage.

But that's my child, I feel bad too." Xu Huaizhi said with tears and snot.

Xu Huaian was afraid that Qi Qi would rub against the kang because he was disgusted by Qi Qi's dirty deeds, so he could only hand him his handkerchief.

I mean, how come this family was split up peacefully?

It turns out there is such a thing going on here. I'm afraid Xu Mingshan has no choice but to do it.

Put yourself in his shoes. If it was him, losing the child he had been looking forward to, and being killed by his own brother, he might have killed everyone, but Xu Huaizhi could still tolerate it.

"Brother, I'm sorry! He was indeed wrong in this matter. You have taken good care of him since he was a child, and everyone has seen it."

"Yeah, that's why I feel worse inside."

Xu Huaizhi didn't actually want to seek reasoning. It was all in the past and it would be futile to talk about it.

He wanted to find someone close to him to confide his distress.

Xu Mingshan and his wife could not understand his pain, and Lin Xiaomeng blamed him and ignored him.

That's why he found Xu Huaian.

"Come on, let's go brother!"

The two brothers drank it one sip at a time.

Gu Qinghuan finished the meeting and when he came over, he saw Xu Huaizhi had been drunk and lying on the table.

Xu Huaian looked as if nothing had happened.

Maybe it was because he drank Lingquan regularly, so his body was pretty good at sobering up, and he didn't feel drunk at all.

"What should I do?" I can't let him sleep at home, right?

"Send it back."

Xu Huaian stood up and carried him on his shoulders. Gu Qinghuan took out a flashlight helplessly, and the two of them sent him back together.

After her miscarriage, Lin Xiaomeng was depressed for a long time. Apart from her son Xu Cheng, she even ignored Xu Huaizhi.

She didn't know the meaning of having a new life, and her life was still a mess.

He got the spiritual spring he had always dreamed of, but he couldn't protect what he wanted to protect.

Things were indeed better after the separation. At least, she no longer had to deal with that family and could only use her money to manage her own small family.

In her heart, she was ready to let herself go, stop thinking about the aborted child, and live a good life in the future.

Who knew that Xu Huaiyu's wife Yan Lijun was pregnant? This news was like a knife stabbing her in the heart, and it hurt so much.

Xu Huaiyu didn't even say sorry for his behavior. How could this devil have a child? He doesn't deserve it!

So she began to fall into endless depression again, obsessed with revenge for the lost child.
