"If you two want to sell cigarettes and candles to your parents' graves, you should step over my corpse first!"
The old lady was sitting in a wheelchair, looking at Zheng Ru expressionlessly, then slowly turned her head and looked at Mu Gang again.
This is the good son she gave birth to. He is selfish and blinded by money. She can tolerate not calling her all year round and even being unfilial to her. But when it comes to brotherly love, the old lady can't bear it.
Zheng Ru put on a standard fake smile, "Mom... Mu Gang and I also don't have enough cash on hand. Don't worry, when we have money, we can buy back the graves of my brother and sister-in-law."
"You said the same thing last time when you sold your house!"
The old lady looked away. She really didn't want to see this daughter-in-law. The more she looked at her, the angrier she became. It was just because she had a good temper. If it were those cunning and willful mother-in-law, she might not know how to make trouble for the two of them.
No pension? Still thinking about eating old age? Go ahead and dream!
'Your mother is giving you a toast and you will be fined if you don't eat. "Zheng Ru winked at Mu Gang in front of the old lady.
Mu Gang frowned, "Forget it." '
'Hey, why don't you forget it? Your mother is over sixty this year and won't live much longer. Keeping her will be a disaster after all. '
Facing Zheng Ru's sinister and calculating eyes, Mu Gang frowned even more tightly, "Are you crazy?" She is my mother. '
'Wife and mom, choose one yourself! '
'...' Mu Gang said nothing.
The old lady's back was to Zheng Ru, and she couldn't see the two people's flirting. She stared sadly at the son in front of her, wanting to hold his hand.
"Dagang, what's wrong with you? When you were young, you were the most sensible one in the family. It's a good thing that you've become rich in recent years. Our hearts can't become bad."
Zheng Ru gritted his teeth. This damn old lady was talking useless words to his son again. Wasn't it just that she didn't like her, so she was sowing discord
Before Mu Yanzhu's father died, she had never been attracted to Mu Gang. She was usually nice to that damn girl Mu Yanzhu, but as for her grandson, she couldn't get anything good out of her.
Although Zheng Ru's house is a second-phase house, a well was drilled in the yard because of the lack of water in the town.
Slanting in front of the old lady is the well, with its mouth open.
A pair of calloused hands gave the old lady's wheelchair a hard push.
If you die, you will die. There is no surveillance at home. If you say you accidentally fell or drowned, who will be suspicious? !
Soon enough, just as the wheelchair was falling towards the wellhead, a slender figure rushed over and hugged the old lady from the side. The wheelchair rolled over and pressed directly on Mu Yanzhu's back.
"Grandma, grandma, are you okay?"
"..." The old lady's eyes were filled with tears. She knew what had just happened.
Mu Yanzhu felt a pain in her back, and helped the old man stand up. All the friendship towards her uncle and aunt in her eyes was replaced by anger.
"Are you crazy? This is murder! Are you going to kill someone!"
Zheng Ru coughed twice: "What nonsense are you talking about, you damn girl? She is my mother, can I kill her?"
"Aunt, I don't know how short of money you are, but look at this big house. When you rebuilt the house, you had no money. My dad gave my uncle two hundred thousand."
"You don't have enough money for decoration. My mother, who is not from your family, went to borrow money from her mother's family. She scraped together and borrowed 100,000 yuan. The day after tomorrow is my mother's death anniversary. You sold my father's property on the anniversary of my father's death. The house, now even the graves of my parents are not spared? You are simply worse than animals!"
"How are you talking? Your parents have been dead for so many years. Who has provided you with food, clothing, and education all these years? Haven't we paid for you? Now our family is in trouble, what's wrong with selling land and graves? These days Learn to be flexible and adaptable to make money. Otherwise, if the land is left there and cannot be moved, why don't you point to the father-in-law of the land to make you rich?"
"Haha. Get rich?"
A thin sneer appeared on Mu Yanzhu's lips, "I really want to know how you got rich overnight, with no capital or savings. Oh yes, you have the courage to kill, so stealing shouldn't be a problem, right? "
As soon as these words came out, Zheng Ru's eyelids twitched fiercely and he winked at his husband behind Mu Yanzhu.
If Mu Yanzhu knew that the five million inheritance her father left her during his lifetime was in their hands, everything would be gone!
Mu Gang sighed in his heart, Yanzhu, don't blame uncle, uncle doesn't want to, it's just that you are too nosy today.
"Aunt, I don't want to forget about the relationship between relatives," Mu Yanzhu faced Zheng Ru with tears streaming down her face, "You have let me down so much. I feel chilled and cold. From now on -"
"Bang!" There was a loud sound. Before Mu Yanzhu could finish what he said, he turned around and saw Mu Gang lying on the ground, his head being stepped on by a pair of clean sneakers. His teeth were spit out, and his mouth was full of blood. , looks very ferocious.
Jiang Qingchi grabbed Mu Gang's collar, not caring whether he was an elder or not, and half-suspended him in the well by his head.
"Did you just want to do this to her? Huh?"
"..." Mu Gang's face suddenly turned pale.
"Ah! Husband!"
Zheng Ru was so frightened that he ran over with a scream, but was glared back by Jiang Qingchi with a sharp cold light.
"Come one step closer and I'll throw him down now, and you can collect his body."
After saying that, he pressed Mu Gang's neck and lowered him down again.
"The weight of your body right now is on my hand. As long as I let go of my hand, you will die."
"Young man... don't... don't."
The old lady looked at Jiang Qingchi pleadingly. That was her son. No matter how much she hated iron, how could she watch him being held down in a well, hanging on a thread of life and death.
Mu Yanzhu's face also turned pale, "Jiang He, that's enough."
Jiang Qingchi finally lifted Mu Gang up.
Mu Gang's face was already swollen. It was caused by Jiang Qingchi's kick just when he was about to push Mu Yanzhu.
Zheng Ru ran over, helped her husband up, and pointed at Jiang Qingchi's nose: "Who are you?"
"Who am I and is none of your business?"
Jiang Qingchi hated people pointing at his nose the most, so he slapped Zheng Ru's hand away.
Zheng Ru covered the back of his hands and gritted his teeth, "If you beat my husband like this, I will sue you and you will go to jail."
"Go ahead and sue."
A cold smile spread across Jiang Qingchi's lips. He had always been a carefree person. At this moment, a rare frost appeared on his face, like an abyss of ice and snow.
He knelt down in front of Mu Yanzhu, held her wrist, let her lie on his shoulder, and then stood up with her on his back.
"If my wife breaks a rib, neither of you can escape! If I don't demolish your house, I won't call you Grandpa Jiang!"
Jiang Qingchi left with Mu Yanzhu on his back, and Mu Ran walked in to handle the rest.
The relationship between Mu Ran and Mu Gang is not good. He has disliked his father since he was a child. He feels that his father is selfish and has no care for him, only harsh punishment.
Zheng Ru took her son's arm and said, "Son, please carry your dad to the hospital quickly. Your dad's face is swollen."
"Mom, I didn't mean to say that the word "self-inflicted" is used to describe you and my dad."
"What did you say?!"
"...I said, the ambulance will be here soon, just wait."
*
Jiang Qingchi ran to the hospital with Mu Yanzhu on his back.
Along the way, he finally regained his normal expression. Just now, she was just one second away from death, and all her worries, panic, uneasiness and fear...
The fear of losing her completely and never seeing her again was like a vine wrapped around Jiang Qingchi's heart.
The twenty-year-old boy suddenly cried, sniffing and wiping away tears.
Mu Yanzhu lay on top of him, "Jiang He, are you crying?"
"I'm so damn... I was scared to death just now..."
"Are you afraid of my uncle?"
"Bullshit. He wants to push you from behind... You said, if I never see you again and you disappear from my world, what will I do?"
As he spoke, he wiped away tears. Except for the time when Yu Li died and when his parents got divorced, he had never cried like this before.
Mu Yanzhu reached out a hand to wipe his tears.
"I'm very lucky. My dad asked someone to calculate it for me, and he said I can live to be a hundred years old."
“…”
"Stop crying, you old man, are you still crying?" She tilted her head to look at him, but was lifted up by Jiang Qingchi.
"Don't look at me now, it's embarrassing."
"It's not a shame, you just... I thought you were so handsome!"
"Did you just look so handsome?"
"You look handsome every day, and you are the most handsome in my heart."
Jiang Qingchi was satisfied with this flattery.
Mu Yanzhu continued to lie on Jiang Qingchi's back, disappointment hovering in his eyes like dark clouds.
Ever since her uncle was so cruel to her—
No, from the time her aunt was cruel to her grandma, she knew that something had completely died on this day.
It will never be restored again.
