Why aren't you guys complaining now that I'm here?

Xu Jianye was in a bad mood after being upset by Zhao Cuiping. He sneered at the words, "Why did she do this? Don't you and your sister-in-law know?"

"What's the matter? Are you blaming me?" Zhou Jie jumped out, unwilling.

"Who wouldn't give a house to a daughter-in-law? We only have one house. We are the eldest son who got married first, so it's only natural that mom gives us the house!"

"We only had a few houses back then, and we couldn't even fit our family in. How could we have extra rooms for you? We had no choice but to ask you to move out."

"You guys are different. You have so many houses. Giving us one or two won't make a difference. You and Jianguo are brothers. Let me tell you, you should give your brother a share of the family fortune you've earned!"

"Besides, we've raised Mom for so many years, now it's your turn to take care of her. How much money have you given to the family over the years? Even if you subsidize us with a house, it's only right!"

Xu Jianguo also stood up.

"Your sister-in-law is right. If your sister-in-law and I hadn't asked you to move out, you wouldn't have been able to earn this fortune."

"If you have any conscience and consider our friendship, please ask Li Shuwen to transfer the house to my name."

"Also, you promised to give Xu Wan's large flat to Dawei for his wedding. Please get it done as soon as possible."

"You don't have a son, so you'll have to rely on Dawei to take care of you in your old age. If you don't express your attitude now, be careful that Dawei and his wife won't care about you when you're old."

"Did you hear that, Uncle?" Xu Dawei raised his chin slightly, his expression arrogant. "Hurry up and call Auntie and ask her to come over and apologize. I can be more generous and forgive her."

"If she continues to be stubborn and delays Tingting and I's wedding, be careful I won't care about her anymore!"

Xu Jianye frowned, "The phone call can't be connected, what's the point of you telling me!"

"How could I have given birth to such a useless son like you!"

Zhao Cuiping hit him on the leg with her crutch.

"Look at our village, every family is headed by a man, yet you let a woman take charge of the household. Now that she's gone, you still have the nerve to complain!"

Xu Jianye rubbed his calf which was cramping in pain, feeling a wave of regret.

Thinking back to the past, his wife was beautiful and capable, his daughter was well-behaved and obedient, and his family was happy and harmonious. He played cards and drank tea every day, and occasionally made appointments with fishing friends to go fishing. His life was so comfortable.

He clearly knew that the old lady had been partial to him for a long time, so why did he think that now that he was rich, he would let the old lady look at him with more favor?

Even if the old lady looked up to him, what could she do?

Now, he has attracted a family of vampires, his wife and daughter don't want him anymore, the house has been sold, and he has disappeared, leaving him alone to be beaten and scolded.

"I don't care. Anyway, call Li Shuwen over here! I'm her mother-in-law, she should serve me and respect me!"

The old lady issued an ultimatum.

Xu Jianye sighed, "Mom, I can't contact her at all."

The old lady snorted coldly, "Even if you can't find her, you can still go to the supermarket and smash it up for her. I don't believe she won't come!"

There was no other way now, so Xu Jianye nodded helplessly.

Leaving Xu Dawei and Sun Tingting to look after the luggage, Zhao Cuiping, Xu Jianye and Xu Jianguo drove to the nearest Huimin Supermarket.

Li Shuwen had lived a hard life. When she first opened her supermarket, she took a common people's approach, selling economical and affordable items. Business was usually good, but now the door was closed and two managers were standing at the door explaining to the customers.

Xu Jianye had a bad feeling in his heart, waved to one of the managers and asked him why the supermarket was closed.

"Mr. Xu, if you don't know, then I know even less. It was Mr. Li who called and ordered this personally. Didn't he discuss it with you?"

Xu Jianye's expression froze for a moment, and he mumbled a few words and asked him for the supermarket key.

The manager gave him a strange look and said, "Boss Li has taken the keys away. He said he wants to personally oversee the rectification."

"Li Shuwen, that *****!"

Zhao Cuiping was so angry that she started cursing.

The manager looked at Zhao Cuiping with disgust.

As one of the earliest subordinates to follow Li Shuwen, he had heard a little about what had happened to his boss. His face immediately turned cold and he turned and left.

Xu Jianye felt so ashamed that he dragged Zhao Cuiping and Xu Jianguo into the car.

Zhao Cuiping waved her crutches and continued to make a fuss.

"You coward! He's just a worker, a servant in the past. Why are you giving me such a hard time? I'm the master, the mistress of the house!"

"Enough! Mom, don't you understand? Li Shuwen is determined to divorce me this time. She even closed the supermarket because you guys are making a fuss about the house!"

Xu Jianye grabbed the old lady's arm and couldn't help but roar.

Zhao Cuiping was stunned for a moment by his yelling, and felt a little guilty after she came to her senses.

But she was used to being domineering in front of her youngest son, and after feeling guilty for a while, she became tough again.

"Divorce if you want! The money that's due to you, well, it's our joint property, and you can't lose a cent!"

"When you get the money, build a big villa for your brother and buy your nephew a big flat. The remaining money will be enough for you to marry a virgin girl. Who cares about Li Shuwen, a hen that doesn't lay eggs!"

The old lady is used to being partial, and whenever something good happens, she always thinks of Xu Jianguo first.

After he had arranged everything for the old household, he thought of his youngest son.

Don’t say that Li Shuwen had the foresight to put all the property under Xu Wan’s name.

Even if he really got a share of the family property, it was his and he should have the final say.

Thinking back to when the old lady indulged Xu Jianguo and his wife to kick him and Li Shuwen, who was five months pregnant, out of the house, and ignored them when they cried outside in the cold winter, which led to Li Shuwen's miscarriage.

Then he thought about how he and Li Shuwen had worked so hard to get to where they were today, building up a family business and having no worries about food and clothing, but the old lady couldn't bear to see them doing well, so she came to interfere and separated their family.

Xu Jianye looked at the old lady who distributed his property in a fair and just manner, and felt a surge of disappointment in his heart.

"Okay, since I can't find Li Shuwen and I don't have much money, I can't afford your expenses in the city. You should go back home today."

Xu Jianguo's face looked unhappy and he quietly pulled Zhao Cuiping.

There are only a few mud-brick houses in my hometown, and there is not even a cement road in the village. It is nothing compared to the happiness in the city where you have food and drink and people pay you to live.

Having finally come here, he doesn't want to go back!

"What do you mean by that?" The old lady's triangular eyes drooped. "Your brother raised me for so many years, and now it's your turn, do you want to give up?"

"Okay, if you dare not support me, I will go back to my hometown and ask the village chief to expel you from the family tree!"

The old lady said nice things, saying that Xu Jianguo had raised her for so many years. It was obviously the old lady who helped Xu Jianguo!

Now that I'm old and need medical treatment, medicine, and someone to take care of me, I think of him.

Xu Jianye really wanted to quit.

But when I heard about the family tree, I felt a little hesitant.
