Upon hearing this, Chicken Boy, Dog Egg, and Ama all showed anger on their faces.

"What? Are all the people in Songjia Village this shameless? Their own children did such shameless things, what does it have to do with our Brother Liang Ming? And now they actually want our Brother Liang Ming to take responsibility?"

"Exactly, do they really think everyone in our Liangjia Village is dead? Is this how they bully people?"

"Brothers, grab your weapons and drive those people from Songjia Village out!"

Upon seeing his fellow villagers, who were all in high spirits, Liang Ming smiled.

With such village friends around, why would we be afraid of being bullied?

Immediately, Liang Ming led Jiang Meizhuang into the courtyard.

"Who is causing trouble in my house?" Liang Ming said in a deep voice.

Upon hearing Liang Ming's voice, Song San and Zhou Min turned their heads to look over.

Upon seeing that it was Liang Ming, a cold expression immediately appeared on his face, and he said:

"Liang Ming, you're finally back! We've been wanting to settle scores with you!"

"Settle accounts? What accounts? When did I ever owe you any money?"

Upon hearing this, Liang Ming asked in return.

"Liang Ming, are you still playing dumb here? If your braised food shop hadn't been inspected by the health department, which implicated my Song Qiang, would my Song Qiang's roast meat shop have been shut down? Would they have been arrested?"

Zhou Min said sarcastically.

"That's right, this is all your fault, and you have to take full responsibility!"

Song San echoed this sentiment.

"Song San, Zhou Min, you two are being completely unreasonable!"

Seeing that the Song couple were shifting the blame onto their son, Li Lan immediately stood up and said:

"It was clearly your own son and daughter who did illegal things, so why are you blaming my son for it!"

"Get out of here! You're not welcome in our home!"

Zhou Min was thick-skinned and didn't think she had done anything wrong at all, saying:

"I don't care, Liang Ming has to resolve this matter for me today."

“If he doesn’t find a way to get my son and daughter out, I’m not leaving.”

“Yes, we’re not leaving!” Song San echoed.

Hearing what the Song couple said, Liang Ming smiled.

It's the kind of laugh that comes from extreme anger.

My former in-laws are still just as unreasonable as they were in my previous life.

In his past life, his parents-in-law were like this: whenever they encountered something they couldn't handle, they would pass the burden to Liang Ming and ask him to solve it.

For example, if his parents-in-law wanted to buy something but were reluctant to pay for it themselves, they would ask Liang Ming to pay for it.

Liang Ming had to pay for all the money Liang Qiang owed from his extravagant lifestyle of eating, drinking, and having fun.

If Liang Ming doesn't agree, he'll speak ill of him to Song Mei.

What son-in-law can't be relied on?

What a jerk Liang Ming is! He has no sense of responsibility. Get a divorce right away.

Song Mei is also brainless; whenever her parents or younger brother say something bad, she comes back and makes a scene with Liang Ming.

In his past life, Liang Ming had an inexplicable fondness for Song Mei, and he accepted whatever she said.

Therefore, whenever Song Mei made a fuss, Liang Ming would give in.

This further fueled the arrogance of the Song family.

Later, it spiraled out of control.

In his past life, Liang Ming suffered hardships at the hands of the Song family; in this life, he will exact revenge on them all.

He is not a saint; he cannot forgive and forget.

Sending the Song siblings in is only the first step.

He also didn't intend to let Song San and Zhou Min, his former in-laws, off the hook.

"So, what do you want me to do?"

Liang Ming looked at Song San and Zhou Min and asked in return.

Upon hearing this, everyone in the courtyard was taken aback.

Liang Min and Li Lan were worried that their son might be too soft-hearted and want to interfere in the Song family's affairs.

Gou Dan, A Ma, and the others outside the courtyard were also worried that Liang Ming would suffer a loss.

Jiang Meizhuang, however, remained calm and silent.

She trusted Liang Ming and believed he wouldn't do anything to harm himself.

Upon hearing Liang Ming's words, Song San and Zhou Min assumed that Liang Ming had compromised, and both showed a hint of excitement on their faces.

"First, you have to find a way to get Song Mei and Song Qiang out. Of course, if you can't think of a way, I can help you. You can say that you secretly put those contraband items into my son's restaurant, and that my son Song Qiang and my daughter Song Mei are innocent."

Zhou Min spoke up.

Upon hearing this, Liang Ming realized they wanted him to take the blame.

Moreover, according to Zhou Min, this is not as simple as taking the blame. If she really said that, she would not only be guilty of possessing contraband, but also of framing someone else.

Given the level of judicial severity in this era, I might very well be in serious trouble.

"Any more?"

However, Liang Ming did not react, but instead asked another question.

Seeing that Liang Ming did not object, Zhou Min assumed that Liang Ming had agreed and was overjoyed.

It seems that Liang Ming still likes Song Mei.

That would be wonderful.

With this relationship in place, it will be much easier to achieve the conditions I propose next.

"I thought Liang Ming was smart because he was so good at making money, but I didn't expect him to be such a fool."

Zhou Min sneered inwardly, but continued aloud:

"Of course, there's also my Song Qiang and Song Mei. Because you've suffered so much, you have to give them some compensation, right?"

"The compensation won't be too much for you, just give me forty or fifty thousand yuan."

As soon as Zhou Min said this, the villagers outside the courtyard couldn't hold back any longer.

"How much? Forty or fifty thousand yuan? You think it's ghost money?"

"And why should our Brother Liang Ming compensate your son and daughter? This matter has nothing to do with our Brother Liang Ming in the first place."

"That's right, get out of here now, or don't blame us for being rude to you."

Dog Egg, Chicken Boy, and Ama chatted amongst themselves, their faces filled with anger.

When Song San and Zhou Min saw this large group of Liangjia Village villagers walk in, a look of fear appeared on their faces.

But Zhou Min quickly calmed down, turned to Liang Ming, and asked, "Liang Ming, what do you mean by this?"

Liang Ming chuckled, treating it as teasing a dog, and said, "You don't need to worry about them. If you have any other conditions, just tell me."

Hearing Liang Ming's words, Zhou Min's expression softened somewhat.

Then, a greedy look appeared on her face, and she said:

"Liang Ming, I heard you opened a cannery in the countryside, and business is doing very well. Give this cannery to my son too."

"After all, you and my daughter have been dating for so many years, it's only right to give her brother a factory."

"Don't worry, leave this factory to my son to manage, he will definitely manage it well for you."

When he saw that the other party still wanted his cannery, Liang Ming's smile widened.

Even Jiang Meizhuang, who was standing to the side, looked at Zhou Min as if she were looking at a stupid pig.

"Are these the only conditions? Are there any others?" Liang Ming asked in return.

"That's all for now, but I'll let you know if I think of anything else," Zhou Min said.
