Old Master Liu smiled and said, "It can only be said that good things come out of bad bamboos. Liu Xiangbei has his own little thoughts, but he is a good person!"

Liu Meilan doesn't care. "She's smart. She knew how to make herself live a good life since she was young. Anyway, we can just get along like ordinary people. As long as she doesn't cause trouble for me, that's fine."

Liu Meilan was very happy. Before she made a move, Liu Xiangnan was lured into gambling.

As the beloved children of Liu Fugui and Yang Xiaolian, Liu Xiangnan's gambling dragged them into the abyss. This was their retribution.

After Liu Xiangbei returned to the city, he bought two boxes of good wine and ten packs of good cigarettes, a pair of gold bracelets for his second aunt, and a watch for Liu Meixiang and Liu Xiangdong, all of which were branded products.

Liu Xiangbei spent a lot of money on this visit to Uncle Liu's house.

In fact, Qin Ming helped him mostly because of his second uncle. Even Liu Meilan was polite to him because of his second uncle. Liu Xiangbei knew it very well.

Liu Xiangbei knew what was good and what was bad. He had to come here because he was going abroad. On the one hand, he wanted to thank his second uncle and aunt, as well as his cousins; on the other hand, he also wanted to leave a good impression and have some friendship, so that if he really couldn't make it out there, he could come back.

Man, who knows what kind of situation you will encounter?

Uncle Liu was chatting with someone and doing business at the same time. When he saw Liu Xiangbei bringing so much Moutai wine, his face darkened and he asked, "You kid, are you having a hard time?"

He runs a tobacco and liquor store. Although not many people buy Moutai in his shop, they know the price of the liquor.

Liu Xiangbei smiled and said, "Second Uncle, now that I have made some money, of course I have to come and visit you. Just think of it as my filial piety. I have already moved here, so please don't ask me to move back."

Uncle Liu felt very happy when he heard his nephew say this.

The old man who was chatting with Uncle Liu said with a smile, "You have a good nephew. He knows how to respect his uncle."

"The kid is making trouble." Uncle Liu grinned. His wife was not at home, so Uncle Liu closed the shop directly and took Liu Xiangbei to eat at a nearby restaurant.

When they got inside, Uncle Liu lowered his voice and asked, "Xiangbei, what happened to you? Are you in trouble?"

Liu Xiangbei did not hide it from Uncle Liu, "Uncle, I came here to remind you not to pay off my eldest brother's gambling debts..."

After hearing Liu Xiangbei's narration, Uncle Liu's lips turned blue with anger. "This Xiangnan doesn't know what's good for him. He actually got involved in gambling. It's a bottomless pit!"

"Who said it wasn't true?" Liu Xiangbei smiled bitterly. "Second Uncle, I secretly mortgaged the houses under my eldest brother's and my father's names to the bank and used them for gambling. My eldest brother even teamed up with a woman from the casino to kidnap me!"

Uncle Liu was stunned. "Then...did you call the police?"

Liu Xiangbei nodded. "I cut the ropes that bound their hands and feet, controlled them, and called the police on the spot. My parents cried and begged me to withdraw the lawsuit, but he not only kidnapped them, but also participated in large-scale gambling. Even if I withdraw the lawsuit, the police will still prosecute!"

"I don't even dare to see my parents now, for fear that they will make trouble for me! Not only do they want me to repay the mortgage loan, but they also want me to support my eldest brother's family. If my eldest brother had a car accident and was unable to work and earn money, I would be willing to support my parents and my eldest brother's family, but that's gambling! If they are so obsessed with gambling, they won't even recognize their own father!"

Uncle Liu nodded repeatedly when he heard this, "Yes! Your elder brother should be put in jail for this matter. Your parents can't discipline him, so letting the state take care of him might help him turn back to the right path."

Liu Xiangbei agreed, "So I came here specifically to tell my second uncle. Even if their house and shop are taken away by the bank, my father still has hundreds of thousands of yuan in demolition compensation, and a small house left by me, which is enough for them to live in. They won't end up living on the streets at all."

"If my parents come to you crying, you must be hard-hearted and not give them money. You sympathize with them, but you are actually harming them. Meixiang and Xiangdong are grown up now, and they will have more places to spend money in the future. Don't waste money on greedy and unreasonable people like my parents."

Uncle Liu hated his eldest brother, but he was still his brother after all. If his eldest brother's family really had no food to eat, he would not stand by and watch them die.

However, Liu Xiangbei told him that he had a house and savings, and was not at the end of his rope, so it was not his turn to help.

"Xiangbei, I understand!" Uncle Liu nodded. It was rare for his elder brother to have a son like Xiangbei, so he would not be alone when he was old.

Uncle Liu drank a little too much, so Liu Xiangbei sent Uncle Liu home and left a letter in Uncle Liu's pocket, as a farewell to Uncle Liu.

Liu Xiangbei's home had been occupied by Liu Fugui and Yang Xiaolian, so Liu Xiangbei chose to stay in a hotel. He got up at 5 a.m. the next day, took a taxi straight to the airport, and boarded a plane to Australia.

When Uncle Liu changed his clothes in the morning and was about to do laundry, he found a letter in his pocket.

When he opened it, Uncle Liu was dumbfounded. His nephew Liu Xiangbei was gone.

However, the letter also explained the reason why Liu Xiangbei left. Although Uncle Liu was upset, he also knew that his elder brother and his wife were too cowardly. If Liu Xiangbei didn't run away, he would be forced to death in the future.

Liu Fugui and Yang Xiaolian thought their youngest son was out doing business and had no time to come back. But after not seeing him for half a month and their eldest son being sentenced, they decided to look for him everywhere.

Whether it was the shops or the stores in the mall, they were all occupied by new people. It was as if the youngest son, Liu Xiangbei, had disappeared and could not be found.

When the eldest daughter-in-law learned that Liu Xiangnan was in jail and had lost all the family property, she ran back to her parents' home.

When the Yuan family came to seek an explanation, Yang Xiaolian actually jumped up and started arguing with them, "Your daughter is already pregnant. She will be my family's child in life and my ghost in death! You want to share our pension money? No way."

Aunt Yuan originally wanted to persuade her daughter to wait for Liu Xiangnan to be released from prison, but when she saw the Liu family's condition, she knew that her daughter would not have a good life here.

"You still think this is the old society! Since your family can't accommodate my daughter, your son not only has affairs with other women outside, but also gambles away all the family property. Now my daughter asks you for some money to take care of the pregnancy, but you won't give it to her. How can she live a good life if she stays here?"

Yang Xiaolian felt that her eldest daughter-in-law was already pregnant and could not cause any trouble, so she was fearless. "As long as we are alive, the money will not be divided! Your daughter will stay at home and I will support her. Anyway, there is no money."

Aunt Yuan took her daughter away on the spot. After consulting her daughter, she decisively took her to the hospital for an abortion and then filed for divorce from Liu Xiangnan.

When Yang Xiaolian found out that her daughter-in-law had had an abortion and was divorcing her eldest son, she cried and screamed, grief-stricken that her eldest grandson, who was not yet born, was gone.

He went to Yuan's house to cause trouble, was beaten by Yuan's family, and returned in disgrace.

The eldest son was in jail, the youngest son disappeared, Liu Fugui drank all day, and the bank called almost every day to urge repayment of the money. Yang Xiaolian felt like the sky was falling.

Not wanting to lose the shop, and even more so the house, Yang Xiaolian thought of her adopted daughter Liu Meilan.
