Inside the house, Yang Chunhua was still making a scene. When she saw her son go out, she tried to stop him and asked him if he had truly lived up to the hardships she had endured all these years of hardship. She said that if he didn't give her an explanation, he might as well just find a rope and go down to his father.
Seeing her son standing frozen at the door, she immediately stormed forward, only to find the person outside stunned for quite a while.
She was a proud person. She used to live a comfortable life and looked down on everyone in the building, thinking that those people were incompetent and couldn't hold onto their wives, so they couldn't enjoy life. Unlike her, she had her daughter-in-law firmly under her control. Now, the tables have turned, and she felt embarrassed to be laughed at. But her embarrassment vanished the moment she saw Guan Lian.
"Let me go! What do you want? That's my son!"
"Your son? Look what you've raised him to be like. In this cold weather, he's wearing such thin clothes. Has he even eaten today?"
When Guan Lian asked him this directly in front of so many people, Chen Wei's anger gradually rose.
He believed he had been doing his best for his youngest son these days. He hadn't given his mother much money for groceries, but he had given him a lot of pocket money. He was worried that his son wouldn't have enough to eat at home, so he secretly gave him snacks from the supply and marketing cooperative.
Since he came back, he has never lost his temper with the young man once; you could almost say he treats him like royalty.
He doesn't have to do any housework, and he can go out and play with his old friends every day. He has never been asked to come home to do anything.
Isn’t that enough?
Something unexpected happened today. Mom got angry because she found out he had secretly given Xiaosheng something, so she stopped cooking. It just so happened that she happened to be there.
Now that Guan Lian is questioning him like this, anyone who doesn't know the situation would think he's a terrible father.
"An eight-year-old child hasn't eaten all day, and it's so cold. How can you bear to do that? Since you can't take care of him properly, then let him stay with me. At least he'll have food and clothes to wear, and he won't go hungry or cold!"
It had been more than half a year since they last met, and Yang Chunhua now had a strange feeling about Guan Lian.
Yang Chunhua used to look down on her daughter-in-law, thinking she was not good enough for her son. Although outsiders didn't understand why Yang Chunhua would think Guan Lian was not good enough for Chen Wei, since both of them were formal employees and Guan Lian was better off in terms of family background, how could she not be good enough for him?
When Chen Wei was young, he was a handsome young man with fair skin and tall stature. At that time, she introduced him to the daughter of a factory leader. Just when she thought her son was going to become related to the leader, he actually fell in love with the Guan family's daughter.
After getting married, Guan Lian was always careful and cautious with her. Even when Yang Chunhua insisted on keeping her son's money and refusing to give it to her, she didn't say anything at first.
Guan Lian had actually spoken to Chen Wei about it, but Chen Wei kept saying that his mother had raised him with great difficulty, and now that he was grown up, he should take care of her. Moreover, the family's money was managed by both of them, all for the good of the family. At first, her salary alone could support herself and Xiao Liang, but later, as the children grew up and they had another child, the money became insufficient.
But how could Yang Chunhua possibly hand it over after taking it for so many years?
Moreover, she always kept her son and daughter-in-law under her thumb. If she said they should go east, they would never dare to go west. If Guan Lian asked her for money at this time, wouldn't that be outrageous? In order to teach her a lesson, she caused a ruckus at home and insisted on pushing her son to divorce her.
Because Guan Lian's factory was giving her a lot of support, she was working long hours and neglecting her family during that period, so they spread rumors that she was having an affair.
In Yang Chunhua's mind, everything she did was just to teach Guan Lian a lesson, as long as Guan Lian could obey her as before after learning the lesson.
