Landlady who likes to hoard land

Later, Wang Chengyu accidentally learned that Xu Jianren had bought a house for Xu Shan. Under the pretext that the child needed to go to school, he asked Xu Chenxing to buy them a resettlement house as well.

Xu Chenxing bought houses for Xu Jianren and Xu Shan. Although Xu Qian, the eldest daughter in the family, already had several resettlement houses in her husband's family, she still felt very resentful.

She dared not confront Xu Chenxing or Xu Shan with her grievances, so she vented them all on Xu Jianren, who seemed weak and easy to bully.

They jump out from time to time to point fingers and seek attention.

"It's precisely because he's incompetent that he lives in the house and drives the car that our dad bought for him. If he were capable, he would have bought his own house and car long ago."

Wang Chengyu is determined to stand her ground today and will retort to everything Xu Qian says.

"Dad, if you're tired, go home and rest. Let Jianren take over."

"crash"

Xu Chenxing swept the remaining dishes off the table again, then stood up unsteadily and pointed at Xu Jianren.

"You've really taken my kindness for granted. I work myself to the bone for you every day, braving wind and rain, and this is how you treat me?"

I'll throw all my money into the river and you still won't get a penny. You think you're so great? I'll burn all your money tomorrow, and you won't get a single cent.

Xu Chenxing was furious. He had been the head of the household his whole life, and his family was his personal fiefdom. Today, Wang Chengyu had challenged his position time and time again and even wanted Xu Jianren to take his place. What difference was there between that and taking his life?

Wang Chengyu was also furious.

"You can spend the money you earn however you want, burn it however you want, we will never stop you. Did Xu Jianren become your son just for your money?"

"It's all about money! If it weren't for money, why would you go to work? Don't you get paid for your job?" Wang Chengyu's mother-in-law chimed in.

Wang Chengyu really admired her mother-in-law's amazing thought process. Sometimes she really wanted to crawl into her mother-in-law's brain to see how it was structured.

"Of course I go to work for money. What's the point of going to work if I don't earn money? According to your understanding, I go to work and earn money all for you?"

"How dare you talk to my parents like that? You have absolutely no manners!"

Xu Qian accused Wang Chengyu

Then came the scene at the beginning where Xu Qian called Wang Chengyu a poor bastard, and then the two of them started fighting.

In her husband's family's eyes, Wang Chengyu has always been weak and easily bullied. They cannot accept her being so assertive today, and Xu Chenxing finds it even more unacceptable.

Looking at the mess on the ground and hearing the noisy crying and cursing, it was clear that smashing the plates had no effect.

Xu Chenxing walked a few steps to the living room door and heard another crash. He punched the glass door, shattering it. His hand was cut by the broken glass, and blood flowed freely.

The main room returned to silence, and the people who had been fighting separated on their own.

Zhao Chen was so frightened that he burst into tears. Xu Qian hurriedly went to comfort her younger son.

Seeing that Xu Chenxing's hand was cut, his mother quickly grabbed a towel to wipe it. She didn't forget to scold Wang Chengyu as she did so.

"If you want to fight, go outside, don't fight in my house. Aren't you ashamed? Xu Wen's mom, you're like a firecracker, you explode at the slightest touch. Your sister only said a few words to you, you should have just listened, how could you hit her?"

Wang Chengyu was furious at her mother-in-law's obvious bias. Since she had already gone all out today, she decided to argue her case.

"She only said a few words. Can't you tell she was swearing? Firecrackers need someone to light them to explode; they explode on their own if no one lights them?"

After a series of questions, the mother-in-law fell silent, and Xu Chenxing began to defend her daughter again.

"If you don't insult her first, will she insult you?"

Xu Chenxing wrapped his hands in a towel and sat down on a chair against the east wall, berating Wang Chengyu.

The in-laws have always been adept at distorting the truth; they can even lie through their teeth in front of so many younger relatives.

Wang Chengyu was furious. In her husband's family's eyes, all the mistakes were hers. They would scold and berate her, and she had to listen and endure it without resisting. If she resisted, she would be seen as a troublemaker, ungrateful, and unreasonable.

What's even more tragic is that they not only demand this of themselves, but judging from Zhu Xing chasing and beating Xu Yao today, it's clear they expect their son to do the same. This is what Wang Chengyu finds most intolerable.

You can't reason with an unreasonable person. All Wang Chengyu could do was roar and curse in anger.

"You said I was the one who started the insults. Whoever started the insults, may she be hit by a car, choke on her water, or choke on her food."

This vicious curse completely enraged Xu Chenxing, and the alcohol further clouded his judgment.

With a thud, Xu Chenxing knelt down and kowtowed repeatedly to Xu Jianren.

"It's my fault, I deserve to die. Can't I kowtow and admit my mistake? Can't I just die?"

This crazy behavior shocked Wang Chengyu. Not only her, but everyone in the room was surprised that Xu Chenxing would do such a thing.

Xu Qian and Xu Shan's husbands remained silent throughout, acting as if they were invisible. They couldn't understand their father-in-law's behavior at all. Every family has its arguments, but this was the first time they had ever seen a father kneel down and kowtow to his son.

In this area, it is believed that when an elder kowtows to a younger person, it is a curse to kill the younger person, and the person being kowtowed to will have their lifespan shortened.

Xu's mother and Xu Shan rushed forward to help Xu Chenxing, but Xu Chenxing lay on the ground and refused to get up, shouting like a shrew that he deserved to die.

"Brother, look what kind of wife you married! She's driven Dad to this point."

As expected, they're family. Xu Shan's ability to shirk responsibility and shift blame is no less than Xu Chenxing's.

Overwhelmed with grief, Wang Chengyu could imagine that the rumors of her and her husband's filial impiety, and how they had forced the old man to kowtow and apologize for money, would spread throughout the village the next day.

This was her husband's family home, where she had lived for over ten years. Xu Chenxing first vented her dissatisfaction by smashing plates and bowls. In the past, Wang Chengyu and Xu Jianren would admit their mistakes and apologize after this.

They didn't apologize today and continued to argue, so Xu Chenxing smashed a glass window and cut his fingers, continuing to pressure them through self-harm. Unexpectedly, Wang Chengyu also became stubborn today, refusing to admit his mistake.

Xu Chenxing went a step further, forcing the couple to admit their mistakes and continue to submit to his oppressive rule by making them kowtow.

With such skillful manipulation, when would this suffocating life ever end? Wang Chengyu felt suffocated.

"Grandpa, are you kowtowing to my father because he's about to die?"

Seeing his grandfather's expression, the innocent Xu Yao couldn't help but ask, "Although my mother often says that conflicts between adults have nothing to do with children, and children shouldn't interfere when adults are arguing."

But Mom also said that if you don't understand, you should ask. He didn't understand why Grandpa was crying and kowtowing to Dad. Was his father about to die?

Xu Yao's question stopped Xu Chenxing from crying. To be honest, aside from Xu Shan's family, Xu Chenxing still cared more about Xu Wen and Xu Yao. In front of his grandson, he had always been an open-minded and generous grandfather.
