Chapter 432: Chapter 432 The Foolish Filial Man’s Wife 47_1

When Zhao Wenjin and her husband arrived at the Liao family’s home, Liao Daqiang and the others had already finished eating and were just waiting for them.

Seeing the situation, Zhao Wenjin’s first thought was, "Do you think your parents are going to scold someone this time?"

Even though Liao Kai would talk behind their backs now and then, he wasn’t used to speaking ill in front of the family.

Zhao Wenjin was not afraid, "If they’re going to scold someone, I’ll just leave right away."

"Why should I put up with anyone making me uncomfortable?" Zhao Wenjin was satisfied to see Zhang Zhaodi’s expression darken a few shades once again.

After entering the house, Liao Kai greeted everyone first, while Zhao Wenjin was more straightforward. After saying hello to the elders, she just said hello to everyone else.

Then, without waiting for Zhang Zhaodi and the others to speak up, she found a spot and sat down.

"It’s been a while, mom and dad, how did you two get so old?"

"You need to take better care of yourselves, or you’ll really look too old."

"You should let go of what you should let go," Zhao Wenjin said bluntly, "Worrying too much definitely leads to aging."

Zhang Zhaodi actually had so much to say and wanted to have a good talk, but as soon as Zhao Wenjin sat down, she just went on and on, provoking them.

"There’s no helping it, you went on vacation, and too much happened at home," Zhang Zhaodi said discontentedly.

Zhao Wenjin brushed some dust off her trousers, "I wasn’t even here, so it definitely has nothing to do with us."

"Mom, whoever makes you unhappy, just scold them. Isn’t that something you’re good at?"

"But don’t drag the innocent into it." Zhao Wenjin looked innocently at Zhang Zhaodi.

"Of course, mom, if you really want to scold, I don’t have the time to listen to your nagging. Xiao Yu is still at home."

She turned her head to look at Liao Kai, "Don’t just call me over whenever your mom makes a phone call about this and that."

"Just because I call out ’mom’ a couple of times, you really think you’re my blood mother. You’ve got some nerve."

Although Liao Kai didn’t know why they were asked to come, he thought he was at least doing them a favor, but as soon as they sat down, they were reprimanded.

"I know, next time I’ll come."

"Whatever the matter, I’ll convey the message when I get back." Liao Kai had no choice but to let his parents scold, so he figured he’d just find another way to keep them separate.

Zhao Wenjin nodded approvingly, "That works."

"After all, you know the bottom line. Anything beyond that, just reject directly and report it back home."

Liao Kai kept nodding, "I know, I know."

The Liao family knew that Liao Kai had no status in front of Zhao Wenjin, but they never expected him to be so utterly powerless.

Although Zhang Zhaodi didn’t care much for this son, she couldn’t just watch him being bullied by his wife.

Just as she was about to say something, Liao Daqiang stopped her and whispered in her ear, "Think about the important things."

Liao Jun also gave them a dissatisfied look; he didn’t care how Liao Kai’s life was going right now.

In his opinion, his brother Liao Kai didn’t know how much better off he was compared to himself, at least he could eat well and travel.

He didn’t have to worry about money at all, and his life was more than comfortable.

Now, he just hoped that today’s matters would go smoothly.

Seeing that both the men and her son were not on her side, Zhang Zhaodi could only helplessly close her mouth.

Liao Daqiang coughed lightly, "I called you over today to discuss something."

Liao Xuan had not expected them to get to the main issue so quickly, truly a bit surprised, but she quickly recovered, thinking it was good to talk about it sooner and get it over with.

The main issue had arrived, she was so worried they would turn on her, but it’s better this way, sooner is better.

"Xiao Bin is also not young anymore, your brother and sister-in-law’s salaries are not very high."

"Now that the company’s performance is not that good, they are thinking..."

As Liao Xuan was listening, she felt something was wrong and abruptly stood up, "Wasn’t today’s discussion supposed to be about something concerning me?"

"Why are you talking about my older brother’s issues." Liao Xuan really didn’t understand, "Liao Bin is getting older, but as a vocational school dropout, who would even look up to him?"

Liao Xuan now looked at Liao Bin, and truly, she felt no affection whatsoever; she could tell that a child who didn’t even graduate from vocational school had no promising future.

"I’m already this age, why don’t you consider my marriage?"

Liao Xuan glared fiercely at Liao Daqiang, "I don’t even know how much better I am than Liao Bin, you all know he’s a good-for-nothing, yet you still only care about him."

"Favoritism, you really are too biased."

Zhao Wenjin thought while listening to Liao Daqiang’s words, ’Don’t tell me they still haven’t given up on the idea of having me cough up money to help fund their house?’

But before she could stand up and explode, Liao Xuan was the first to erupt instead.

Since someone had stood up, Zhao Wenjin certainly continued to act as an uninvolved bystander, calmly watching their family’s internal strife.

Feng Lili had educated Liao Jun over and over today, telling her not to speak up, in case she would agitate Zhao Wenjin again.

Yet to her surprise, before Zhao Wenjin could react, Liao Xuan, the divorced woman, burst out first, demanding that they should solve her issues first and openly called Liao Bin a thug, mentioning the fact that he dropped out.

Feng Lili dared not look at Liao Jun’s face; because of this matter, there hadn’t been a shortage of conflicts with the old folks, and of course, she was also blamed.

Feng Lili knew that Liao Bin hung out with riffraff all day long and had dropped out, which really made her feel terrible.

Lately, she had been diligently asking around to see where she could find an apprenticeship for Liao Bin, hoping he could learn something.

Just when she had a glimmer of hope and mentioned it to Liao Bin, the bear of a child didn’t even consider it, outright saying he wouldn’t go.

He also said he wouldn’t work unless they bought him a house, which really infuriated Feng Lili.

Feng Lili wanted to educate Liao Bin properly, but he nonchalantly pushed her, causing her to hit the corner of a table, and she still felt pain in her waist.

What made her even more upset was that Liao Bin warned that if she tried to lecture him again, it wouldn’t be just a minor warning – he would resort to hitting them to see how they would dare to educate him then.

It was at that moment she realized that Liao Bin, who she still thought of as a child in her heart, had long since grown up into the very person she least wanted to see.

Now hearing what Liao Xuan said along with the family’s complaints, Feng Lili became enraged and stood up abruptly.

She barged in front of Liao Xuan, and a few slaps landed on her face, "Is that how you talk about your own nephew?"

"With such a mean demeanor, you still expect to get married off? I think you’re just daydreaming."

"Even Xie Haiqing couldn’t put up with you, even if you threw yourself at him."

"Liao Xuan, I think aside from throwing yourself at someone, you won’t be able to get married off in this lifetime."

Hmph, she never thought about her own shady history, yet she dared to criticize her, which was truly preposterous.

Liao Xuan was truly stunned by Feng Lili’s slaps, unable to react.

Hearing Feng Lili say that without offering herself, no man would choose her, she was truly seething with anger.
