In her haste, Madam Jia immediately grabbed her and said, "Is this food for your father-in-law?"
"It's for Rain and the others."
"But your father-in-law hasn't had a drop of water either."
Everyone was looking at the two bowls in her hands.
If Wang Liying hadn't covered it with a plate, they would have loved to peel it off and see what was inside.
Is it true, as the legend goes, that their family eats rice every meal?
Wang Liying was too lazy to talk to these people and simply broke free from Jia Zhangshi.
Deliver the food to the rain-soaked house.
He instructed them, "Your older brother said that no matter what happens outside, you must not come out."
"But he's even picked up a stick, won't he hit my older brother?"
"No, you're just kids, don't worry about these things."
See how she actually served the food to Yushui.
He was like a ghost, and Wang Liying didn't even glance at the man.
He Daqing could no longer hold back and called out to her.
"Hongyang's wife, can't you see me?"
Jia Zhangshi rushed forward again: "Your father-in-law is asking you a question, answer him quickly!"
The third and second aunties also came over to join in the fun.
"Didn't you see the stick in his hand? If you don't speak up, he might beat you up."
Right at this tense moment!
He Hongyang came out from inside.
He took Wang Liying's hand and said, "Let's go home for dinner."
85. Want to come back and claim your share of the inheritance? Are you asking for a beating?
The two of them went in hand in hand.
Then I heard the sounds of clinking glasses and exchanging toasts inside.
"Brother, I'm going to drink more today. Let's drink until we're drunk!"
"Brother, when I go to work tomorrow, I'll go to the cafeteria and cook a few dishes. We can eat together for lunch."
"Brother, I feel so happy right now. You're right, a good man should have ambitions beyond his hometown. From now on, I will follow you and focus on doing my job well. I will never think about those messy things again."
"Brother knows you're feeling bad today, let's drink together!"
"You two brothers shouldn't just drink, eat some food. This braised pork knuckle is something I specially made for you."
"Brother Hongyang, are we having three-delicacy dumplings again later? I'll go prepare them right away."
He Daqing was practically drooling.
It was all about drinking, braised pork hock, and three-delicacy dumplings.
They were eating and drinking inside.
I didn't get a single share of it.
"Gululu!"
His stomach growled.
Even what I did just now didn't scare them.
It seems this approach won't work.
Besides, both of his sons know some martial arts, so if they were to really fight, he probably wouldn't be a match for them at all.
simply!
"Pfft!"
He fell to the ground.
"Old woman, come and see! My son and daughter are ignoring me. They won't even let me into my own house."
“They’re living the high life inside, while I, this old man, am left out here to starve and freeze. What kind of sins have I committed?”
"Everyone says that raising children is for old age security, but as I get older, my children are not only unfilial, they also act as if they don't see me and completely ignore me."
“I came all this way just because I missed my son and daughter and wanted to come back and see them. Why are they treating me like this? You are my children, whom I raised. I even send you living expenses every month.”
No one expected it.
He actually acted like an old woman, lying on the ground and throwing a tantrum!
Jia Zhangshi watched his actions.
I wanted to give him a thumbs up right then and there.
His crying, tantrums, and threats of suicide were no less impressive than mine!
Knowing they couldn't do anything to He Hongyang, they resorted to this tactic.
It seems He Daqing has made a lot of progress over the years; he's even learned this old woman's trick!
Others, seeing him like this, started gossiping.
"What kind of talk is this? He is, after all, an elder of the He family. It's so shameful to do this. Not only is it a disgrace to him, but his children, who are born after 630, will also lose face in this courtyard."
"He was just calling out for his old woman. Do you think his old woman is He Hongyang's mother or the White Widow?"
"Although He Daqing ran away without a word, he was a skilled person before and did quite well in our courtyard. Now, his actions are truly despicable."
"No wonder He Hongyang doesn't let his wife talk to him. If anyone does talk to him, he'll probably cling to them."
"Do you think he came back this time because he really missed his son and daughter and wanted to see them?"
"I heard he spent the whole afternoon measuring houses; maybe he's after his own house!"
"You're right. If he missed his child, he should have come back to see him long ago. Coming back now can't be anything good!"
"He Hongyang has really had a tough time. Over the years, he has raised his younger siblings and finally managed to improve the family's situation. But then this happened."
"I originally thought that Jia Zhangshi was bad enough, but at least she was good to her son, which is much better than He Daqing."
"They say even tigers don't eat their cubs, but after his outburst, how can his children hold their heads high?"
He Daqing didn't care about any of that.
Anyway, if He Hongyang doesn't come out today, he'll keep making a scene.
In his eyes, since he's from his hometown, no matter how much trouble he causes, it's not excessive.
Anyway, he is an elder of the He family, so whatever requests he makes are reasonable.
Sha Zhu drank half a bottle of baijiu.
This is the time when alcohol is really taking effect.
He was already in a bad mood.
When he saw He Daqing just now, if his older brother hadn't been holding him back, he would have loved to go up to him and beat him up like he did with that bald guy earlier, until he was bleeding profusely.
The thought that Bai Lianhua was the widow's sister and He Daqing's sister-in-law came to mind.
If his older brother hadn't seen through his scam, he would have really gone back to Baoding with her.
Then he and He Daqing would become brothers-in-law.
Father and son become brothers-in-law? Isn't that a joke?!
"call!"
He stood up abruptly.
"Big brother, I can't hold back anymore."
He Hongyang wasn't holding back; he wanted He Daqing to unleash his ultimate move all at once.
I want to see what his purpose is in coming back this time.
Unexpectedly, he resorted to crying, making a scene, and threatening suicide.
Since he's not afraid of losing face.
Then they are even less afraid!
"Let's go, let's get out!"
He Daqing saw that the person had finally come out.
He was so anxious that he immediately got up from the ground, wanting to go over and say hello.
You can see Shazhu clenching his fists, looking menacing.
He was so frightened that he dared not move forward.
"Shazhu, what are you doing? Can't you see your dad is back?"
His calling him "Dad" immediately ignited Sha Zhu's anger.
"You don't deserve it! If it weren't for my older brother, who knows what kind of state our family would be in. You've already run off with the White Widow, what are you doing back here!"
He Daqing hadn't expected his first words to be like that.
Sha Zhu wasn't like this before, who gave him the guts!
Looking at He Hongyang, he said, "You're the eldest brother, so say something. Your younger brother treats me like this, and you're not going to do anything about it."
He Hongyang simply picked up the teacup and looked him up and down.
"Who do you think you are? Whether I discipline my own brother or not is none of your business."
If Sha Zhu's words made him feel embarrassed, then He Hongyang's words made him even angrier.
Isn't this a blatant provocation?
Since he doesn't respect him at all, he might as well state his demands.
“My surname is He, and yours is He too. No matter what, I will always be your father. Don’t forget that I have a part in this family.”
"Since you two brothers treat me like this, then let's just split up the family!"
"I'm not afraid to be blunt with you. I'm here today for this very reason. Now that one of you is married and the other is an adult, how this family property is divided and what each of you gets is up to me, the head of the family."
"Don't think that just because you bought a bicycle, got a job, and are in better shape, you can look down on me."
"Let me tell you, no matter what, I will always be your father, and no matter what, I will always be the one in charge of this family!"
"Your Aunt Bai has already said that she doesn't want the house or anything else. She just wants you to give her the money she received in compensation, and then we'll go our separate ways and be even!"
He Daqing's words.
This caused a huge uproar!
No one expected that this was the real purpose of his trip.
Sell the house!
Break up!
This is something that someone from his hometown would say.
I thought he was already heartless enough by not caring about his own son, but I never expected him to make this request now. It's simply too much!
They had previously thought He Hongyang was wrong, after all, he was an elder of the He family. Even if he had made mistakes before, since he had come all this way, they should at least let him have a meal and a drink.
Now it seems.
He did nothing wrong!
If they had such a hometown, they wouldn't bother with him either.
They say He Hongyang got married, but he didn't spend a single penny of his money on the wedding.
