Chen Xiangbei was eager to join in, but just as he was about to act, he met Wang De's face.

When the two men exchanged glances, Chen Xiangbei felt a little guilty. Two days ago, he had helped Wang De sell his job. Wang De only took the four hundred yuan or so that they had taken from him earlier; the rest of the money was with Chen Xiangbei.

Chen Xiangbei planned to tell Yang Su about this after his sister's wedding. He was afraid that if he told her before the wedding, someone might leak the news, and if Yang Su found out, his sister's wedding would be disrupted.

Yes, he was talking about Chen Xiangdong's family. Those two can't keep a secret at all.

When Chen Xiangbei was selling jobs, he had already inquired about them. The job his father found for Wang Ming was nowhere near as good as Wang De's. Although it was also a formal job, Wang De was far superior to him in terms of both career prospects and factory benefits.

So, after deducting the money his father paid to Wang Ming and the money his brother took from him, Wang De actually had a little extra money left over from the job he earned. However, it wasn't much, so Chen Xiangbei still gave him an extra hundred yuan.

Chen Xiangbei isn't the kind of person who likes to take advantage of others. He does business by the fair price, and sincerity is the most important thing.

Now that he's changed jobs, Chen Xiangbei has no reason to use work as an excuse to curse people. Although Yang Su was in charge of the house matter, his father is the most despicable one.

However, he was the only one among everyone present who knew that Wang De was going to the countryside. He also knew that Wang De still had feelings for Yang Su. If he joined the argument at this time, he would inevitably have to insult Yang Su. Facing Wang De's honest face, Chen Xiangbei found it difficult to curse.

Chen Weijun and Fang Rong continued their cursing without stopping. Old Chen also couldn't hold back after cursing back for a while. It was exhausting to argue with two people who couldn't understand human language, so Old Chen's eyes gradually became vacant, and he began to drift off into a daze.

Let them say whatever they want, Old Chen won't listen anyway.

Chen Weimin got tired of cursing and saw that Yang Su was starting to look at the two of them like they were watching a monkey show. He tugged at Fang Rong and tilted his chin toward Yang Su.

Fang Rong opened her mouth, revealing a tooth missing, and just then saw Yang Su looking at her and laughing. She thought the old woman was mocking her missing tooth, so she rushed over and bumped her head into Yang Su's chest in anger.

Yang Su was just thinking about how this couple could so confidently treat other people's resources as their own, and then when Old Chen gave the job to her son, the two of them reacted as if their own things had been stolen, even more excited than Old Chen's own children, which she found somewhat amusing.

Unexpectedly, before she could even smile, Fang Rong knocked her to the ground. She grabbed Fang Rong's head and slammed it against the ground, yelling as she hit her, "You call me shameless? I think you two are the most shameless ones. You can't get any advantage over your older brother, so you're starting to target me?"

"Relatives like you, let alone me, even your eldest brother doesn't want to talk to you. I heard I wanted to cut ties with you before, how can you be so shameless, still chasing after me even after we've severed ties?"

Yang Su is not one to be bullied. She could tolerate their insults earlier for the sake of work, but now that they've resorted to violence, she wouldn't stand for it.

She showed no mercy, and soon blood was flowing from Fang Rong's forehead.

The others rushed forward to pull the two of them apart, and it took a lot of effort to remove Yang Su's hand from Fang Rong's head. When they removed it, Yang Su was still holding a strand of hair that had been forcibly pulled from Fang Rong's head.

Chen Weijun: "Brother, look what kind of person you married! He almost beat my wife to death. He's a murderer."

Old Chen grabbed him, "Look at the kind of person you married! She's always hitting people. Is she some kind of wild boar spirit reincarnated?"

Chen Weijun really couldn't understand it. If it was just that Old Chen protected Old Lady Xia during the fight before, that would be one thing. They were an old couple who had lived together for more than 20 years, so their feelings for each other were naturally deep.

But now, he has become so heartless and ruthless because of this old woman. Not only Chen Weijun doesn't understand this, but no one does either.

It's normal for the brothers to have a close relationship when they were young, but to drift apart as they grew up and lived separately. However, he had raised four children—Xiang Dong, Xiang Nan, Xiang Hong, and Xiang Bei—from infancy, and twenty years of affection couldn't compare to a few months of relationship with Yang Su. This was simply against human nature.

"Brother, have you been cursed? If not, I really want to ask this Comrade Yang Su what has bewitched you and made you like this. You're too scary. You've lost your mind."

For the first time, Xu Meiyu felt that Chen Weijun had spoken a human word; it was the first time in all these years that she had heard Chen Weijun say something so tactful.

Chen Weimin then walked out and said, "Second brother, eldest brother is already so old. What's wrong with wanting to live a more comfortable life? He wants to live with sister-in-law. As long as he's happy, that's all that matters. Why do you always have to break them up?"

And you children, your father has already done more than enough by raising you. Do you still want to squeeze every last drop of value out of him? Especially you boys, when you grow up, you should earn your own living. Always eyeing what adults have to offer, you have no ambition whatsoever.”

Xu Meiyu pouted, "Chen Weimin, how dare you say such a thing? You yourself live off my family, and you still tell them you want to build your own business? Besides, your own children are struggling to build their own business, while the children outside can reap the rewards without lifting a finger."

"So, will your older brother have his stepsons take care of him in his old age?"

Chen Weimin: "Meiyu, are you out of your mind? I am me, and they are them. My older brother raised these children, so they have to support him in his old age, otherwise they'll become ungrateful wretches!"

Xu Meiyu: "Are you out of your mind? Your eldest brother raised you all, shouldn't you take care of them in their old age? Your eldest brother raised your second brother's children, shouldn't Ligang and Liqiang take care of them in their old age too?"

Your older brother supports many people, so the fairest way is for everyone to share the responsibility of caring for each other in old age. When you're no longer able to care for yourself, you'll also have to support your older brother in his old age.

Chen Weimin was suddenly dragged into the elderly care controversy again, and he immediately became unhappy, scolding Chen Weimin: "Third brother, I think you really have something wrong with your head. Your wife is not wrong at all. Your eldest brother is just helping our family as relatives, how did it become that we are obligated to support him in his old age?"

Whoever he's sacrificed the most for, that's who should take care of him in his old age. Work is the most important thing; whoever he found a job for should be the one to support him. Besides, if you're suggesting Xiang Dong and the others take care of him in his old age, don't you know in your heart that the biggest contributor to their successful upbringing wasn't our eldest brother, but rather our former sister-in-law?

I don't think Xiang Dong and the others should be expected to support their parents in their old age, let alone my family. So, since my eldest brother has been so good to the Wang family children, then let them support them in their old age. They can't just take my brother's sacrifices for granted when they have no blood relation to him, can they? Even Heaven would be disgusted if that were the case.
