Countdown to Awakening

While Qi Qingguang was gloating, he did not forget to provoke Qi Yuanyuan with his eyes.

Qi Qingyang, who was standing by, saw this and turned around and slapped him in the face.

He couldn't control what Wang Ning said, nor could he take action. After all, no matter what Wang Ning said, she wasn't surnamed Qi, so she wouldn't get any benefits. But Qi Qingguang was his nephew, and if he dared to have such thoughts, he would be finished.

"Qingguang, wasn't Second Uncle good to you when he was alive? Second Uncle doesn't have a son, so he would always think of us if he had anything good to offer. He doesn't have bad intentions. As Second Uncle's nephew, you actually want to covet his property? Don't forget, Yuanyuan is Second Uncle's biological daughter!"

Qi Qingguang was stunned by the slap. Qi Yuanyuan, who was sitting next to him, was even more confused.

Just slap him like that?

"Brother, you don't want this house, but you can't stop me from getting it... I haven't even found a wife yet... Unlike you, who went out to work for a few years and came back to get married, what will I do in the future if I don't have this house?"

I really don't understand this eldest brother. He is obviously his biological brother, but he actually helps an outsider to beat his own brother?

Wang Ning and Qi Ronghua trotted over.

"Son, let me see. It hurts, doesn't it? Ouch, Qingyang, what's wrong with you? Qingguang is your biological brother. How could you hit him for an outsider? Since your second uncle has no son, shouldn't the house and money belong to your nephew?"

Qi Yuanyuan also stood up from her chair at this time.

"Qi Qingguang, don't think I wouldn't say anything to you just because you're my cousin. When my dad built this house, none of you contributed any money. You also stood by and watched him get sick. Now he's passed away, and you have no conscience. Not only do you not help, but you're also obsessed with his house and money, and you even want to kick us mother and daughter out? You're dreaming!"

Wang Ning was incredulous. "Little girl, how can you talk to your brother like that? You have no manners at all. Is that how your mother taught you?"

Qi Yuanyuan didn't let her go either: "And you, you're the one who started this. Don't think I don't know that you want my house and money. You're taking advantage of the fact that you gave birth to two sons and do whatever you want. I'm standing here today to tell you that as long as I'm here, you won't be able to take a single cent!"

"You...you...you...you're totally unreasonable! How can you let an outsider take the family money? You're going to get married in the future! Your name isn't even in the family tree, and yet you dare take the Qi family's things? Being able to pay for your college education is already the best! And you're so ungrateful that you want to share his second uncle's money?"

Qi Yuanyuan smiled faintly: "You are the outsider! You said my name is not in the family tree, so is yours? I don't care! After all, my last name is Qi. Is it appropriate for you, a man named Wang, to come here and meddle in our family affairs?"

Wang Ning didn't give in to her at all: "Qi Yuanyuan, you are an outsider who is about to get married. Even if your surname is Qi now, your child will not have your surname in the future. This money must be given to my son. Whether your father has a son or not, why should a little girl like you take this money?"

The two of them were arguing so fiercely that they seemed to ignore the people around them.

Mr. Xue hurried over to pull them apart.

"Big brother's wife, please be quiet... Since your eldest son says he doesn't want the money left by Rongfeng, Yuanyuan is Rongfeng's biological daughter after all. You can't just give it all to him, right?"

Qi Qingyang firmly stood on Qi Yuanyuan's side.

"Learn from my wife. My brother and I don't want Second Uncle's house and money. All of this money should be left to Yuanyuan."

Qi Qingguang refused to do it when he heard this.

"No... When did I say I didn't want it anymore? How can I get married without a house?"

Qi Qingyang glared at him. "You don't have a wife... can't you go work in the city to earn some money? You're just coveting the money and house your second uncle left behind. Do you have the nerve to do that? His daughter is still alive, what's your say?"

"I... I'm my second uncle's nephew, a male of the Qi family... If you don't want these, then they're all mine, right?"

Qi Qingyang's wife added, "Second brother, Yuanyuan is the first college graduate in our Qi family, and she's also Second Uncle's biological daughter. We shouldn't take this money."

"Sister-in-law, don't think that just because you married into our family, you can interfere in our family affairs. It's not your turn to make the decision!"

Old Man Xue said, "Shut up! We're all family, why are you arguing? Rongfang and I were good friends when he was alive. We all know how he treated Yuanyuan. I think he left this money for his daughter. You two families have been at odds ever since your family split up. Although he'll help with small things, there's no way he'll leave this money to you."

Mr. Xue spoke the truth in one sentence.

Over the years, Qi Rongfeng had faced all the difficulties in his family by himself, and he even agreed with Yuanyuan going to college.

He just couldn't believe that such a man would not leave his money to his wife and daughter.

When Sun Pandi rushed to the health center, Zhao Zhikang's bed was already covered with a layer of white cloth.

"Grandpa Zhao..." Sun Pandi burst into tears.

Zheng Haifeng was also stunned when he saw this scene.

Zhao Fuqiang held back his tears and pretended to be calm, saying, "You two days ago... if you have anything to say to my dad, say it now as soon as possible. My dad only saw you and Haifeng together, and he was quite relieved."

Sun Pandi tugged at Zhao Fu's sleeve and asked, "I don't understand. Isn't Grandpa Zhao in good health? How could he die so quickly...why?"

When this was mentioned, Zhao Fu looked guilty.

"You say it, Uncle Fu."

Zhao Fu swallowed hard. "It's nothing, just an old problem. It's a little more serious this time. Really, if you have anything to say, please finish it quickly."

Just as Sun Pandi was about to speak, Zhao Fu's wife, who was standing at the door, ran to her.

"Hmph! Sun Pandi, you still have the nerve to cry hypocritically here? If it weren't for you, my father-in-law wouldn't have left so soon. You jinx!"

Sun Pandi looked suspicious. "What do you mean? Was it my fault?"

Zhao Fu's eyes rolled from time to time.

"Uncle Fu, why aren't you talking? Is it because of me?"

Could it be that because she hasn't returned to the village for many years, the village chief is worried that she is worrying too much?

That's impossible... How could that be? Every year she asks Qi Yuanyuan or Zheng Haifeng to report her safety.

"You still have the nerve to ask, if it weren't for..."

"Shut up!" Just as he was about to say it, Zhao Fu spoke up to stop him.

"Why exactly? I want to hear it. Grandpa Zhao treats me like his granddaughter. Don't I even have the right to know why he left?"

"Then listen carefully! The tuition you paid for college was all the life-saving money my father-in-law saved through years of frugality! He could have stayed, but he left so soon because he gave you the money! All this was because of you, a jinx!"
