Grandpa Liu and Grandma Liu didn't listen to what their daughter and granddaughter said. From the sudden change in Liu Tong's expression, they knew it must be something bad. They didn't ask any more questions and just let their daughter go.
Liu Jiagui wanted to ask Li Yao and Zhou Chunmei when they would come to pay New Year greetings. His sister looked panicked. He was worried that Li Yao had an accident on the road, so he felt uneasy.
After his sister left for a while, he found an opportunity to avoid his parents, called his niece, and asked when his niece and Li Yao would arrive at Liu's house. They were still waiting for them to come back for dinner.
When Zhou Chunmei received the call, she didn't dare to make the decision privately, so she told Li Yao that her uncle was waiting for them to have dinner.
When the Liu family called, Li Yao got angry and grabbed the phone and shouted: "Liu, your family is well-established. You said before that you had communicated with my father-in-law and let Zhou Chunmei get married in the Liu family. In fact, you
Without the consent of my father-in-law, you decided on your own to let Zhou Chunmei get married in the Liu family.
You also said that your father-in-law proposed the betrothal gift that you agreed upon at the beginning, but it turned out that your family asked for it and squandered all the betrothal gift without giving any cents to my father-in-law.
You and your family banded together to deceive my father-in-law, causing him to think that I looked down on the Zhou family. You did something unnatural, but you wanted me to take the blame!
People surnamed Liu, I, the Li family, have given you face, but you really think you are nothing, right? Just wait, I will settle the score with you after I have dealt with the mess on my mother-in-law’s side!"
Li Yao yelled at the phone, and Zhou Chunmei was shocked. Li Yao used to have a very good attitude towards her grandmother's family, calling her "uncle, grandpa, grandma" in a sweet and affectionate manner.
However, now not only does he no longer call him uncle, he also directly calls him "Liu".
Li Yao changed so quickly that Zhou Chunmei felt panicked and did not dare to breathe loudly.
Zhou Chunmei was frightened, and Liu Jiagui, who was yelled at, was also frightened. He couldn't find where his soul was for a while, but when he realized what he was doing, he was in a panic.
Li Yao didn't call him uncle, but also brought up Zhou Chunmei's marriage and betrothal gift to Liu's family, and wanted to settle a score with him?
Does that mean you want them to return the bride price?
What on earth happened?
Thinking of returning all kinds of gifts, Liu Jiagui was heartbroken. He hurriedly ran home. When he found his parents, he shouted: "Dad, Mom, something big has happened, something big has happened..."
The son ran back in a panic, howling like a ghost crying or a wolf howling. Grandpa Liu, Grandma Liu, and Aunt Liu were also frightened and asked nervously what happened.
Liu Jiagui was afraid that Li Yao would settle the score with him, so he was so panicked that he told Li Yao that he knew that their family had collaborated to deceive Zhou Xialong into marrying Zhou Chunmei into the Liu family, and that they had swallowed the bride price and wanted to settle the score with them.
Grandpa Liu and grandma were also panicked. They had signed an agreement with Zhou Xialong, but they had indeed kept it from Zhou Xialong from the very beginning. They had mentioned the amount of the gift and so on, and Zhou Xialong had no idea about it.
What they told Li Yao was different. They told the Li family that Zhou Xialong asked them to take charge of Zhou Chunmei's marriage, and that the bride price was also given to the Zhou family.
When the Dongchuang Incident broke out, Li Yao wanted to cause trouble for them. If the trouble got bigger and people on the street knew about it, I don't know how others would scold them behind their backs, and where would they put the Liu family's face?
Several adults in the Liu family were in a panic, and Aunt Liu couldn't help complaining that her father-in-law, mother-in-law, and men were greedy for money and caused trouble.
Grandpa Liu and Grandma Liu were so angry that they were about to have a heart attack. How could they have known that Zhou Xialong would do something so ruthless?
I also don’t understand why after Li Yao and Zhou Chunmei got married, he had to go to Jiudao Zhou’s house again and again to find Qi Shou.
The paper could not contain the fire, because Li Yao often ran to the Zhou family and finally knew the truth about Zhou Chunmei's marriage to the Liu family.
If Zhou Xialong was not so cruel and did not publish the newspaper to sever the relationship between father and daughter, Li Yao would not have to go to the Zhou family to recognize his relatives, and nothing would happen.
From the time Zhou Chunmei and Li Yao were dating until Zhou Chunmei got married, Li Yao gave the Liu family a lot of benefits. The scattered red envelopes and betrothal gifts added up to more than 140,000 in cash.
The money had been used long ago, and most of it was used by Liu Jiagui to buy a car.
Now they are asked to take out the money. Grandpa Liu and Grandma Liu feel sick just thinking about it. How can they be willing to dig into their own pockets?
In the panic, Grandpa Liu and Grandma Liu came up with a quick idea and asked their son to find his sister quickly. If Li Yao went to Liu Tong's place in Zhu County, they would ask their son to blame Liu Tong for everything and say it was Liu Tong's idea.
Zhou Chunmei is born to Liu Tong. Liu Tong has the right to make decisions for Zhou Chunmei. Li Yao is Liu Tong's son-in-law. Can he really fall out with his mother-in-law?
His parents' idea instantly gave Liu Jiagui a direction. He immediately packed a bag and drove to Zhuxian County.
Liu Tong chartered a car back to Zhu County. As soon as she arrived home, her brother Liu Jiagui arrived just behind.
When he originally heard the knock on the door, Liu Tong thought that Li Yao and the others were back. He hadn't prepared himself mentally yet, so he panicked and didn't open the door immediately. It wasn't until someone outside knocked on the door twice that he had to open the door.
When he opened the door and saw his brother, Liu Tong was very surprised and asked why his brother was here.
How could Liu Jiagui dare to tell the truth? He only said that Li Yao asked him to wait at his sister's house, so he had no choice but to come.
Liu Tong had no doubts and let her brother into the house. She was frightened. She didn't know why Li Yao was angry. Even though she hadn't eaten lunch, she temporarily forgot about her hunger and waited uneasily.
Liu Jiagui was also preoccupied with thinking about how to put all the responsibility on his sister, and had already forgotten about missing lunch.
However, the siblings only stayed for less than half an hour and before they could figure it out, Li Yao and Zhou Chunmei also arrived.
Li Yao and Zhou Chunmei had the key to the house, but they didn't carry it with them and could only knock on the door.
Liu Tong, who was full of anxiety, felt frightened when he opened the door and saw Li Yao with a green face. He forced a smile and pretended not to know anything, and warmly let his son-in-law enter the house.
Liu Jiagui was unsure. When he saw Li Yao looking embarrassed, he took out a cigarette and handed it to him: "Nephew and son-in-law, you are back. Have you had your meals..."
When Li Yao saw Liu Jiagui's flattering face, he suddenly became angry. He grabbed Liu Jiagui and punched him in the face.
"Eat whatever you want, I'll get your MB salary!"
While swearing, he waved his fist: "You are such a stupid fairy, are you still a human being? You are Zhou Chunmei's biological uncle, and your parents are Zhou Chunmei's maternal grandfather and grandmother, but your family has hidden this from you.
Brother-in-law/son-in-law, embezzling the bride price of niece/granddaughter, you Liu family can even do such a thing, you are worse than a pig or a dog!"
Li Yao is not stupid, he knows how to preemptively put the fault on the An and Liu family first, making himself the uninformed one. In this way, he is also the one who was deceived, and he can suppress the Liu family from the moral high ground.
Li Yao started beating people without saying a word, and Liu Tong was stunned.
Zhou Chunmei, who was frightened and followed Li Yao into the house, saw Li Yao attacking her uncle and remained silent, standing still without daring to move.
As soon as they met, Liu Jiagui was severely beaten. Liu Jiagui was so stunned that he almost couldn't remember who he was. After being beaten several times, he was so painful that he howled in pain.
"Li Yao, that's Chunmei's uncle, and he's also your uncle. How could you hit your uncle?" Being awakened by the howling, Liu Tong panicked as if something was wrong, and ran to start a fight.
"I don't have such an uncle who is not a human being." Li Yao punched Liu Jiagui again, knocking him back. He tried to step forward again, and his tone was quite harsh: "Not only do I disown my uncle, but I also disown you as my mother-in-law.
You and the Liu family joined forces to deceive my father-in-law and me. The bride price was not proposed by my father-in-law at all. It was also your idea to let Chunmei marry in the Liu family. I will no longer recognize you as the mother-in-law who sold her girl for her family. I will
Take back the bride price and the house and hand them over to your father-in-law."
Liu Tong, who wanted to run to start a fight, felt as if he was struck by lightning, and his whole body froze.
Her legs seemed to be petrified and she could no longer lift them up. She twisted her neck with difficulty and looked at her son-in-law in disbelief. Li Yao... Why did he suddenly ask about Chunmei's marriage to the Liu family?
, and... said that he wanted to take back the real estate and the bride price?
She thought she might have heard wrongly, but Li Yao's face was gloomy and angry, and Chunmei also had a scared expression on her face.
Liu Tong was flustered and trembling: "Li Yao, Chunmei is already married to you. It doesn't matter where she gets married. Why on earth did you hear such gossip and get angry with your mother-in-law and uncle like this?"
Li Yao yelled and hit Liu Jiagui, yelled at his mother-in-law, walked to the sofa with a dark face and sat down. His anger was still there. Seeing that his mother-in-law still wanted to make excuses, he sneered: "I don't have time to make trouble with you people whose consciences have been eaten by dogs."
Temper, I went to Zhou's house today to pay New Year's greetings and only then did I find out from Tianming that you and Liu guys took the gift from me. Because you had money, you divorced your father-in-law and severed the mother-son relationship with Tianming.
You and your mother's family jointly swallowed up your own girl's bride price. For the sake of house and money, you not only abandoned her husband, but also your own son. How can a person like you deserve to be a mother?
I originally couldn't understand why my father-in-law wanted to publish a newspaper to sever the relationship between father and daughter. It turned out that you and the Liu family went too far, which chilled my father-in-law and forced him to cruelly cut off the father-daughter relationship with Zhou Chunmei in order to stay out of sight.
To be pure.”
"No, it's not like that," Liu Tong denied in panic: "It was Zhou Xialong who asked for divorce, not me, not me..."
Liu Jiagui, who was howling in pain after being beaten, held his head and did not dare to cry out in pain anymore. He squatted on the ground and rubbed the area where he was beaten. He grimaced in pain and was shaking with fear in his heart. Li Yao
He actually wants to take back the bride price?!
"Mother-in-law, you didn't make a draft when you lied. If my father-in-law really wanted a divorce, how could you and your mother's family keep quiet? What kind of virtue is the Liu Jiagui and what kind of virtue are the Liu family and his wife? How else can I know?
Liu Jiagui and his parents are the most greedy and snobbish. They always praise the superior and disdain the inferior, despise the poor and love the rich.
With your moral character, if my father-in-law wants a divorce, you will definitely cause an uproar, blackmail the Zhou family severely, and then step the Zhou family under the water. It is best that the Zhou family cannot hold its head up from now on.
Only then will you be satisfied. You two are not making trouble, which means that there is something wrong in your heart and you are the one who asked for the divorce."
Li Yao revealed the truth straight to the point without giving any face: "Mother-in-law, I still call you mother-in-law now, but it's hard to tell whether you will be my mother-in-law in the future.
I married a girl from the Zhou family, and from now on I will only recognize the daughter-in-law of the Zhou family as my mother-in-law. Mother-in-law, you and your father-in-law are divorced, and you are no longer the daughter-in-law of the Zhou family. Naturally, you should stop trying to gain my respect, let alone expect me to support you.
You gave birth to Zhou Chunmei. If she wants to provide for you in old age, she can only find a job to earn money to honor you. I will never allow Zhou Chunmei to empty out my Li family to fill the big hole in your mother-in-law's and Liu's family."
Li Chunmei's legs were almost numb from standing, and she was carefully moving to the sofa to sit down. When she heard Li Yao calling her name by name, she was so frightened that she didn't dare to move.
The son-in-law's guess was accurate. Liu Tong was in a state of confusion, with cold sweat running down his back and the tip of his nose. When he heard that if she was not Zhou Xialong's mother-in-law, Li Yao would no longer recognize her as his mother-in-law, and his whole body was struck by lightning.
Still shocked.
She is Zhou Chunmei's biological mother. Even if she divorces Zhou Xialong, she is still Zhou Chunmei's mother. Li Yao only recognizes his father-in-law and not his mother-in-law?
"..." Liu Tong opened his mouth, unable to speak.
Li Yao cast his eyes on Liu Jiagui, who was squatting and holding his head: "Zhou Chunmei's marriage in the Liu family was manipulated by her mother-in-law and the Liu family. I don't care which one of you had the idea, and I won't listen to explanations. I only give you two choices.
The first option is that you return all the betrothal gifts intact. The house where your mother-in-law lives is also one of the betrothal gifts, and of course it is included. I will take back the betrothal gifts and deliver them to my father-in-law in person;
The second option is for the mother-in-law and the Liu family to apologize to the father-in-law and tell him the truth about how you worked together to deceive him and let Zhou Chunmei marry in the Liu family, and ask for his forgiveness.
My father-in-law forgives you and will no longer pursue the matter of the bride price, and I will not say anything more.
In addition, if the mother-in-law does not remarry the father-in-law, you will not have a share in the house. I will take the house back and transfer it to the father-in-law's name.
If my mother-in-law remarries my father-in-law, you are still my mother-in-law, and I will no longer care whether the house is in the name of the father-in-law or the mother-in-law.
I only give you three days. If you don't go to your father-in-law's house to admit your mistake within three days, I will treat you as the first choice. Then I will go to the Liu family and my mother-in-law to get the bride price.
Don't even think about running away. If you can't run away, if you run away, I will immediately ask a lawyer to write a petition to the court. The bride price will still be returned to my hands. I don't mind making the matter bigger and making it known far and near.
Let people know what you have done, and whether you can hold your head high and behave like a good person in the future is your business. You can't blame me."
Liu Tong is a village woman who has never seen the world. Liu Jiagui has done business, but he is only a liar. He looks great in his own family. In front of people like Li Yao who have seen the world a little, he is also an ordinary person.
Country bastard.
When the country bumpkin Liu Jiagui heard the choice given by Li Yao, he softened. Li Yao wanted to take back all the gifts?!
Li Yao asked him to admit his mistake to the Zhou family?!
No matter which one of them, Liu Jiagui was cutting his teeth. He was reluctant to pay hundreds of thousands of dollars. Asking him to admit his mistake to Zhou Xialong was tantamount to a slap in his face.
