The heavens set sail from the courtyard

To prepare for his marriage, Liu Hongchang built a new house next to He Wenhui's house. For this house, Liu Hongchang not only used up all his savings, but also incurred many favors.

After Wang Gang left, the He family members, especially He Wenyuan, had the idea of ​​taking over the family business.

The He family has a large population, but their house is small. In the past, the whole family squeezed into a single tile-roofed house, making it inconvenient to sleep.

Later, He Wenhui got married and moved to Liu Hongchang's house, which eased things a bit for the He family, but it still wasn't enough space.

These past two days, while Wang Gang has been staying at Liu's house, He Wenyuan has set his sights on Liu Hongchang's house and even moved in under the pretext of accompanying his older sister.

As someone who prioritizes supporting her brother and sister above all else, He Wenhui naturally wouldn't object, but she forgot that this house had absolutely nothing to do with her.

Seeing He Wenyuan usurp his place, Wang Gang was naturally furious. He didn't bother to reason with her and simply dragged her out in a rude manner.

"Get out of here." Wang Gang dragged He Wenyuan downstairs.

"Old Liu, let go of me." He Wenyuan tried to resist, but she was no match for Wang Gang's strength. She quickly gave up resisting, and her eyes lit up with a plan.

"Help! Someone's being indecent!" He Wenyuan shouted.

Wang Gang snorted coldly and threw He Wenyuan to the ground.

"Ouch!" He Wenyuan fell face-first into the dirt, forgetting to even cry out.

"Who's being indecent?" He Wenhui came out of the house when she heard her sister's voice.

"Liu Hongchang?" He Wenhui's expression froze slightly when she saw Wang Gang.

"Big sister." He Wenyuan saw his sister, quickly got up from the ground, and ran to He Wenhui's side: "Old Liu hit me."

Wang Gang said to He Wenhui, "Who allowed He Wenyuan to stay in my house!"

He Wenhui subconsciously said, "Wenyuan came to keep me company."

Wang Gang said coldly, "This house is mine. Pack your personal belongings and move out immediately."

"Why should I!" He Wenyuan exclaimed urgently, "This house was built by you to marry my eldest sister, so it belongs to at least half of her!"

Wang Gang sneered, "I paid for the house, and the property certificate only has my name, Liu Hongchang, on it. Your older sister didn't contribute a single penny, so why should she get half of it!"

He Wenhui then realized that after the divorce, the marital home had nothing to do with her.

"Big sister, we can't let Old Liu get the house for free," He Wenyuan said anxiously.

When Liu Hongchang was building the house, He Wenyuan complained about it many times and even encouraged his younger brother to smash the windows.

But after only a few days of living there, He Wenyuan realized the benefits of having multiple properties and had no intention of returning them.

"Hongchang, let's go home and talk!" He Wenhui saw that many neighbors had come out to watch the commotion and didn't want to make a scene any longer.

The trauma of her last experience at the Liu family's house left a deep scar, and she was somewhat afraid.

Wang Gang also wanted to cut his losses quickly and avoid getting entangled with the He family.

"Okay, let's also talk about the divorce."

When Wang Gang entered the He family home again, He Wenhui asked her sister to call Yu Qiuhua out.

When He Wentao saw Wang Gang come in, he picked up a stool and threw it at him.

"You're not allowed to bully my sister!"

As soon as Wang Gang moved his left foot, the stool in He Wentao's hand shattered into pieces, scaring everyone into not daring to move.

"Liu Hongchang, don't hurt my brother!" He Wenhui exclaimed in alarm.

"He Wenhui, are you blind? Didn't you see that your brother started it and even tried to hit me with a stool?" Wang Gang shouted.

He Wenhui said urgently, "Wentao is still young and doesn't understand."

Wang Gang scoffed, "He Wenhui, you're just spoiling your brother! You'll regret it sooner or later."

He Wentao glanced at the broken bench on the ground, still unaware of fear, and tried to rush towards Wang Gang again, but He Wenhui quickly stopped him. "Wentao," He Wenhui said, hugging her younger brother tightly, "Mom is out."

Yu Qiuhua's intimidating presence was strong enough that He Wentao immediately became obedient.

"What happened? What did I hear?" Yu Qiuhua came out with He Wenyuan's help.

"Mom, Liu Hongchang is here," He Wenhui said, pulling her younger brother aside.

"Hongchang, you're here!" Yu Qiuhua said with a smile.

"I'm here to talk about divorce." Wang Gang took out the certificates he had prepared in advance and said, "I have already obtained the certificates from the neighborhood committee and my work unit, and I can go to the Civil Affairs Bureau to get a divorce certificate at any time."

He Wenhui's body trembled.

Yu Qiuhua sighed, "Hongchang, you still want a divorce!"

Wang Gang said impatiently, "Don't waste each other's time. I came here today not only to inform He Wenhui to go to the Civil Affairs Bureau, but also to settle accounts!"

"Settle accounts? What accounts?" He Wenyuan retorted, unconvinced.

"Hmph, you He family tricked me into marriage, do you think I'll just let it go like this?" Wang Gang sneered, "I spent so much money to marry He Wenhui, shouldn't you compensate me!"

"What? You want to compensate me?" He Wenhui asked in surprise.

Wang Gang retorted confidently, "Why shouldn't I ask for compensation? I paid for the wedding banquet and other expenses. You should at least pay back half of it!"

He Wenyuan said angrily, "Liu Hongchang, you dog, it was you who wanted to marry my eldest sister, not our family who begged you to marry her."

Wang Gang scoffed, "I did marry your older sister, but has she ever fulfilled her duties as a wife? You think I'm a sucker? No way!"

He Wenhui knew she was in the wrong and couldn't find any words to refute it.

Wang Gang completely ignored He Wenyuan, knowing that the person who truly held power in the He family was Yu Qiuhua.

"If you don't pay compensation, I'll sue you for marriage fraud. Anyway, I have plenty of witnesses and evidence, and I'll win every time. You'll have to pay up, but you'll also lose face!"

He Wenyuan was furious and wanted to curse Wang Gang again, but Yu Qiuhua stopped him.

"Wen Yuan, take Wen Tao back to the house. This is none of your business," Yu Qiuhua said.

"Mom, I can't let Lao Liu bully you," He Wenyuan said urgently.

"Does what I say no longer matter?" Yu Qiuhua shouted angrily.

He Wenhui advised, "Mom, don't be angry. The doctor told you not to get angry."

Out of concern for his mother's health, He Wenyuan could only angrily take his younger brother back to the house, but he gave Wang Gang a very unfriendly look as he left.

Wang Gang didn't care about He Wenyuan at all. What could a little girl like her possibly do?

“He Wenhui, if you don’t want to pay, fine, we’ll see you in court,” Wang Gang said, standing up.

“Hongchang, don’t go.” Yu Qiuhua said nervously, “We should return this money to you. The money we gave you for the banquet is still with me. It should be returned to you.”

Wang Gang stopped, and Yu Qiuhua said to He Wenhui, "Go to my room and take a small cloth bag from the bottom of the second shelf of the closet."

He Wenhui quickly took out the items, and Yu Qiuhua personally handed them to Wang Gang.

"Hongchang, I know it's our He family who wronged you. All the money is here; I haven't touched a single penny. Please count it," Yu Qiuhua said pitifully.

Wang Gang accepted the gift money and said, "This amount is far from enough!"

He Wenhui could no longer hold back and angrily said, "Liu Hongchang, what else do you want? Our family really has no money left!"

Wang Gang pointed to his own buttocks and said, "Your brother burned my buttocks like this, don't you want to compensate me?"

He Wenhui frowned and said, "Didn't I pay for your medical expenses when you were hospitalized?"

Wang Gang sneered, "Do you think just paying for medical expenses is enough? I suffered so much, and during my recovery period, I had no job and no income. Shouldn't you compensate me?" (End of Chapter)
