That year the flowers bloomed 1981

Chapter 1434 He told you to die, so you should just die.

Wang Jia's second uncle's remark, "A weasel paying New Year's greetings to a chicken," embarrassed Wang Jianqiang's parents, his eldest and second brothers, and his two sisters-in-law.

That's really harsh; even a three-year-old could taste the sarcasm in it.

Fan Chunhua immediately burst into tears: "Second Master, are you trying to frame me and kill me? I've been busy since yesterday, just trying to make Qiangzi some New Year's dumplings. How did I become a weasel? You all say I'm a bad person, so I might as well just die!"

Crying, making a scene, and threatening suicide are tactics that middle-aged and elderly women like Fan Chunhua have honed over many years. Once unleashed, they have a powerful effect in causing trouble and making a scene.

Wang Jianqiang's father and brother and sister-in-law also looked unfriendly at this time. After all, they had something to hide, and people with something to hide are most likely to become angry and embarrassed when their secrets are exposed.

In other words, the second master of the Wang family has always been the "head of the household" in the Wang family. His prestige within the family has been so high that they dare not offend him, otherwise they would have already turned against him by now.

But Fan Chunhua was crying out for justice, and her son couldn't bear to watch any longer, so Wang Jianqiang's second brother, Wang Yonggan, awkwardly tried to defend himself.

"Second Uncle, this matter is really not my mother's fault. It's all that woman in the capital's fault. She treated Qiangzi like a son-in-law who had moved into her husband's family home. What kind of grown man spends the New Year at his father-in-law's house?"

Wang Yonggan's wife, Fang Zhilin, chimed in, "That's right, Second Uncle. These past few days, that woman surnamed Huang has been glued to Qiangzi's side, not leaving him for a moment. We haven't even had a chance to have a heart-to-heart talk with him. We were thinking of letting Qiangzi stay for the New Year and finding an opportunity to teach him a lesson."

"You're trying to make Qiangzi more cunning? You're probably up to something shady!"

Even the second master of the Wang family laughed in anger.

So many years have passed, yet they still treat Wang Jianqiang like a fool, believing that as long as they use their wits, they can make Wang Jianqiang obedient, even if it means going hungry.

Wang Jianqiang's father, Wang Daguang, finally couldn't stand his second brother's mockery any longer. He retorted angrily, "Second brother, how can you talk like that? Qiangzi is my son. Do you think giving him advice would harm him?"

The second master of the Wang family looked at Wang Daguang and said in a deep voice, "Sixth brother, I told you all a few years ago when Qiangzi got married that Qiangzi is smarter than any of you, and you don't need to worry about him."

As long as you and Chunhua treat each other equally and don't cause trouble for Qiangzi, you two will be financially secure for the rest of your lives.

Did you see it this year? Even though you treated Qiangzi that way before, he still brought his wife and children back to pay respects at the graves. That child is truly filial.
But you guys are really pushing your luck, trying to keep Qiangzi's car. You always use Qiangzi's money to subsidize his two older brothers. If you were Qiangzi, would you come back later? Do you really want Qiangzi to become a live-in son-in-law?

"I...I didn't expect it to turn out like this."

After being scolded by Wang Dasheng, Wang Daguang's stiff neck, which had been held back just moments before, drooped helplessly again.

He knew, of course, that this was unfair to his youngest son, but his youngest son hadn't been home for years, and the family relied entirely on his two sons and daughters-in-law for care. His sons insisted on keeping Wang Jianqiang's car, saying they would take him and Fan Chunhua to the provincial capital to shop at skyscrapers and to Qingdao to see the sea every day.
Wang Dasheng has rarely traveled far from home in his life. If he could have a private car to serve him, he would be very tempted!

When Wang Yonggan saw that his father had been silenced by his second uncle, he cursed inwardly, "The old man is useless; we still have to rely on me."

"Second Uncle, don't rush to scold my father. Actually, you don't know this, but this year I contacted many fellow villagers from Qingshui who work in Beijing and found out Qiangzi's background."
Qiangzi is not just a wage earner; he treats Hao Jian, Jin Peng, and Li Dayong as equals.
Look at Jin Peng, Hao Jian, and Li Dayong now. How could Qiangzi only earn a few hundred yuan a month?

He left Qingshui County with Hao Jian and Jin Peng. Everyone else was making progress, but why was he stuck in the same place?

"He's better than you even if he stays still!"

The second master of the Wang family sharply reprimanded Wang Yonggan, then turned to his cousin and said, "Sixth brother, didn't I tell you not to compare Qiangzi with Jin Peng and Li Dayong? Qiangzi is different from them; he's more reliable than Jin Peng and the others."

"No, no, no, you're wrong, Second Uncle."

Wang Yonggan said with a laugh, "Second Uncle, I've already asked around. Qiangzi's brother-in-law used to be a good-for-nothing hoodlum, but since Qiangzi got married, he's become rich in just a few years."
"That Huang Gang drives a car worth hundreds of thousands. You think he got the money? It's probably our Qiangzi who gave him the money. That money all belongs to the Wang family, why should it be Huang's?"

Second Master Wang sneered, "Oh, you've found out so much! So, according to you, Qiangzi's money should be managed by you, the one surnamed Wang?"

Wang Yonggan felt inexplicably guilty, but still said defiantly, "I didn't say I was in charge, but Jin Peng can open two large factories for his wife, so why can't Qiangzi?"

Second Master Wang blinked and said with a smile, "So, when we were drinking yesterday, why were you trying to get information out of Qiangzi? You wanted him to open a big factory for you too!"

"Second Uncle, I didn't think that way. The factory will definitely belong to Qiangzi. Qiangzi isn't as educated as me. At most, I'll help him manage production and check the accounts." No matter how thick-skinned Wang Yonggan was, he was too embarrassed to admit it directly. He just said that he wanted to be the "deputy factory director" and even gave the reason that "I am highly educated".

But the second master of the Wang family blurted out, "Shut up! With your petty schemes, you think you're qualified to manage the factory and the accounts?"

"No matter how much money Qiangzi has, it's not your place as his second brother to make decisions for him. It's none of your business."

Jin Peng opened the factory for his wife, and even if Qiangzi opened a factory, it was for Huang Suwen. Who do you think you are?

"."

Wang Yonggan was stunned. He, who considered himself exceptionally intelligent, suddenly realized that Jin Peng had built several large factories in Qingshui County, but his wife was in charge of them all!

"Hmph, they're all money-grubbing bastards."

The second master of the Wang family cursed without holding back, and then said to Wang Daguang, "Sixth brother, it is a blessing for our Wang family that Qiangzi was born into our family. But if you are greedy and drive Qiangzi away, we will not forgive you."

"."

Wang Daguang opened his mouth, but couldn't say a word.

He had scolded his son countless times for not coming home for years, but if he really drove his son away, he probably would have wanted to die.

Putting everything else aside, the few hundred yuan of retirement money he receives each month is definitely gone. Without money in hand, how can his two sons and daughters-in-law still be so filial?

Fan Chunhua was also frightened, wiping away her tears and saying, "Second Master, what should we do? I had no idea Qiangzi would be so temperamental. I, as his mother, can't even say anything to him."

Wang Dasheng said coldly, "Hmph, this is easy to handle. From now on, Qiangzi will be in charge of everything in your family. Ask Qiangzi for his opinion on everything, big or small. Whatever he says goes. If he says go east, you go east; if he says go west, you go west."

Wang Dasheng's move was actually quite clever. While it seemed like he was giving Wang Jianqiang the position of "head of the family," he was actually putting a burden of kinship on Wang's shoulders.

But Wang Yonggan didn't understand at all, and said indignantly, "What? If he tells us to die, should we die too?"
Second Uncle, your third son went to Beijing with Qiangzi and lived a life of luxury, so you're always defending him, aren't you?
But your third child is still a team leader, working himself to death moving goods every day. You've got your plans all figured out, hahaha!

"."

"Yes, if Qiangzi tells you to die, then you have a reason to die. You'd better hurry up and die, the sooner the better. You MLBG bastard, Qiangzi is really unlucky to have a brother like you."

. . . . . . . . . .

Wang Dasheng cursed at Wang Daguang's house for a long time before leaving, and then he found a phone and dialed Wang Jianqiang's elder brother's mobile phone.

"Hey, Qiangzi, I just came from your house. It was all your two older brothers who instigated your parents. They're both senile. As their son, don't hold a grudge too much."

Wang Dasheng was really conflicted. Wang Jianqiang could have brought great wealth to the Wang family, but his foolish family members broke his heart time and time again. If Wang Jianqiang never came back, it would be a real tragedy!

But Wang Jianqiang calmly replied, "I understand, Second Uncle. From now on, I'll come back to pay my respects at the graves by myself, and I won't disturb anyone."

"."

Wang Dasheng was startled, then immediately said, "Okay, if you ever come back to visit the grave, just tell me, and I'll take you to your grandfather's grave. If you're not happy, you can leave after you're done."

After Wang Dasheng finished his phone call with Wang Jianqiang, a huge weight was lifted off his shoulders.

Then he cursed, "A bunch of greedy bastards, you complain when a great thing falls on your heads, you deserve to benefit my third son."
