Reborn in the 1970s, remarried to a powerful but childless man, her scumbag husband is furious.

My uncle's family lives in the next village, not far from here.

In the past, Li Xiuying would always bring a lot of bags and packages when she went back to her parents' home, but this time they didn't prepare anything and came empty-handed.

When they arrived at the door, Li Xiuying was still hesitating whether to go in or not. Seeing this, Wenrou went straight up and opened the door.

Li Xiuying wanted to call her, but it was too late. She had no choice but to bite the bullet and go inside with Wenrou.

"Grandma, Uncle, I've come to see you!" Wenrou called out loudly as she entered the door.

Her maternal grandfather passed away, and her maternal grandmother raised her uncle and mother alone, which is one of the reasons why Li Xiuying is so devoted to her maternal family.

When I was little, my maternal grandmother favored my maternal uncle, giving him all the good food and clothes at home.

Li Xiuying is older, and as the older sister, she feels it's only right that she treats her younger brother well.

Even after her uncle got married and had children, her habit of favoring her uncle's family remained unchanged.

After calling out gently, seeing no response from inside, she was about to go in when her aunt, Wang Xiufang, came out.

"Oh my, big sister, what brings you and Xiaorou here at this hour?"

Not seeing anyone else, Li Xiuying asked, "Where are Mom and Jianguo? I haven't seen them."

Speaking of this, Wang Xiufang's eyes darted around, and she pretended to be heartbroken as she said, "Big sister, you don't know, after you left that day, Mom heard about Jiguang's situation and became very ill from worry. Now she's bedridden and can't get up. She refuses to let Jianguo and me take her to the county hospital for treatment."

"What? Mom is sick?" Upon hearing Wang Xiufang's words, Li Xiuying's expression immediately changed.

As she spoke, she hurriedly went into the room on the west side.

Before Wenrou could even enter, she heard Li Xiuying's apologetic voice coming from inside the house.

"Mom, why didn't you tell me you were sick? I'll have someone take you to the county hospital right now."

Wenrou had a bad impression of her grandmother since she was a child because her grandmother had a sharp and mean face. Even when Wenrou was young, her grandmother looked down on her as a money-loser and kept urging Li Xiuying to sell her.

If it weren't for her father and two older brothers' strong advocacy, she probably would have been sold to human traffickers long ago.

Previously, Liu Yan was sold to an old widower, and that family gave Liu's family a large sum of money. She was very envious when she heard about this.

So he strongly opposed her relationship with Zhou Dayong and even wanted to find someone to sell her off as well.

She also wanted to use the money from selling her to buy her cousin a good job at the machinery factory in the county, and the whole family wanted to move to the city.

However, before she could succeed in this matter, Wenrou got into trouble.

Because of this, she cursed Li Xiuying all day long, saying that if she had listened to her, the family would have had more money.

They despised her because her body had been defiled and she couldn't sell herself anymore.

She even worried that Wenrou would be a burden to their family, and kept instilling in Li Xiuying the idea that her family should not visit her.

In her previous life, she had no further contact with her maternal grandmother's family because of this.

However, she remembered that later, when her father became seriously ill and Li Xiuying came to her uncle's house to borrow money, she was personally kicked out by her grandmother and aunt.

Not long after that, my cousin got into trouble.

Although his uncle's family eventually managed to get him a job at a machinery factory, he was lazy and irresponsible all the time, and lost his job after only a few days.

Later, he was tricked into engaging in speculative trading, but instead of making money, he was arrested and executed for killing someone.

Upon hearing the news of her beloved grandson's death, the old lady fainted from shock.

Li Jianguo, having lost his son, drank all day long, and eventually accidentally fell into the river and drowned.

Wang Xiufang later remarried, taking her daughter with her, leaving the old lady alone in the family.

Wenrou thought to herself and sneered. Without a doubt, the old lady was faking it.

Wenrou followed Li Xiuying into the house. The old lady's house was very big. She had just built a new house for her family some time ago, and everything in her room was new.

The reason my uncle's family was able to build a house was largely due to Li Xiuying's financial assistance.

Seeing the old lady on the bed so weak, Li Xiuying was so anxious that she almost burst into tears.

"Xiuying, what brings you here? How is Jiguang? It doesn't matter if I, an old woman, die, but I can't let my grandson be implicated. I still have some money in my cupboard, take it and use it to treat Jiguang's illness."

The old lady could barely speak; she had to gasp for breath several times before she could finish a single sentence.

Seeing her like this, Li Xiuying felt even more heartbroken.

"How can that be? Your illness needs treatment too. Lao Wen and I will figure out a way to help Ji Guang. Don't say anything, I'll take you to the hospital for treatment right now." At this point, Li Xiuying naturally couldn't bear to take the old lady's money anymore.

Wenrou stood aside, knowing that this was all the old lady's doing.

She knew that once she said that, Li Xiuying would definitely not have the heart to take her money anymore, and sure enough, she achieved her goal.

Seeing that she was in such a state, and still thinking about Jiguang's injuries, Li Xiuying felt guilty. How could she possibly ask for money?

If Wenrou hadn't come along today, we definitely wouldn't have gotten the money back.

Li Xiuying was reluctant to accept the money, but she was willing to give it up.

"I think Grandma is right. We can't let her kindness go to waste. I'll take the money." Wenrou said gently, turning around and opening the cabinet next to her.

She knew where the old lady hid all the money; she had seen her with a small square box when she was little, and sure enough, it was hidden at the very bottom of the cabinet.

After receiving the small box, Wenrou opened it and saw that it contained a lot of tickets and money.

Over the years, Li Xiuying has given them much more than just these.

Even the things Huo Yanchuan took last time have probably been sold by them. In that case, she should take the money even more.

As she spoke gently, she deftly stuffed all the money from the small box into her pocket.

The old lady's eyes widened when she saw Wenrou's actions; she was so angry she almost fainted.

"Xiaorou, quickly put the money back." Li Xiuying never expected that Wenrou would take all the money, and hurriedly said.

"Mom, didn't you hear what Grandma just said? This money is for my older brother's leg treatment. She said she doesn't have many days left to live. Otherwise, I'll go find her a suona band right now, so we can send Grandma off in a grand manner."

The word "gentle" is absolutely infuriating.

The old lady stared at her, so angry that she couldn't speak.

This... that little bitch is cursing her.

At this moment, Wang Xiufang heard the noise and rushed in, but unfortunately, she was too late. She watched helplessly as Wenrou put all the money into her own pocket, and she couldn't stop her even if she wanted to.

"Xiaorou, that's your grandmother's medical money. What are you going to do with it? Give it back to me right now."

All the family's money was with the old lady. Now, Wenrou had essentially taken all their money away. How could Wang Xiufang not be anxious?

"Aunt, you must have heard it too. This was Grandma's last wish. She said to use this money to treat my eldest brother's leg. How could I not do as she wished?"

She spoke gently, glancing at the old lady lying on the bed.

The old lady was so desperate she wanted to die. She was just saying it casually, knowing Liu Xiuying would never take it.

But she never expected that Wenrou would act so unpredictably and run off with all her money.

"You...you...you give me..." The old lady pointed at Wenrou in anger, unable to utter a complete sentence.

Upon seeing this, Wenrou turned around and left.

How could the old lady just stand by and watch Wenrou take the money? She got out of bed immediately, looking completely energetic, whereas she had looked weak just moments before.

"You...you little bitch, stop right there and give me back all my money!" the old lady yelled at Wenrou.

When Li Xiuying saw that the old lady had recovered, she was stunned.

She now realized that she had been faking illness and acting pitiful.

The reason I said that was because I was certain I wouldn't take her money.

"Mom... how could you lie to me about something like this?" Li Xiuying asked, unable to accept it.

The old lady no longer cares about Li Xiuying; she only wants her own money.

Wenrou ignored her and went straight to call the suona band after leaving the house.

Before long, the sound of suona horns rang out in front of the Li family's house, and the whole village came out to see what was going on.

"What happened? Did someone in your family pass away?"

"It sounds like Li Jianguo's voice. Could it be that Old Mrs. Li has passed away?"

"No way, she seemed so energetic just two days ago, how could she suddenly be dead?"

At this moment, besides the suona band, a large crowd had gathered in front of the Li family's house.

At this moment, Li Jianguo returned from the fields.

He was taken aback when he saw a large crowd gathered in front of his house.

"Jianguo, you must take heart."

"Yes, don't be too sad. We all have to go through birth, aging, sickness, and death."

Hearing the villagers comfort him like this, Li Jianguo became even more puzzled.

"What are you talking about? What condolences? Why should I be sad?"

Li Jianguo stared blankly at the suona band in front of his house. In the village, whenever someone had a funeral, wealthy families would hire a suona band to play music.

The suona band was now at his doorstep when he suddenly felt a chill and rushed inside.

"Mom, Xiufang, what happened?"

Upon hearing that Li Jianguo had returned, Wang Xiufang quickly came out and told him everything that had just happened.

"Hey, Jianguo, you better go find that little bitch Wenrou right now. She ran off with all my money and even hired a suona band just to spite me. She's cursing me to die."

Upon hearing that Li Jianguo had returned, the old lady immediately began to complain to him.

Li Xiuying stood aside with a sullen face. If it weren't for Wenrou, she would still be kept in the dark by her family.

Now, she doesn't want to stop Wenrou anymore.

She used to be so good to her family; no matter what good things she had, she always thought of them first.

They even moved all their valuables over, just hoping they could live a better life.

But now, her son needs money to treat his leg, and they've come up with this way to avoid giving her any money.

"This suona band is really good; they've brought the whole village here." Wenrou came in from outside at this moment, looking at her uncle's family with a sneer on her face.

Upon hearing that Wenrou was behind this, Li Jianguo's face immediately darkened.

"Wenrou, what are you trying to do? That's your grandmother. You're being incredibly unfilial," Li Jianguo scolded immediately.

"You need to disband the suona band right now, and return all the money you took. I'll let it go because you're a junior and because of the relationship between our two families."

Li Jianguo felt that saying this was a way of giving Wenrou face.

Unfortunately, Wenrou found his words laughable.

"Now that Grandma is alright, I can naturally disband the suona band. However, if you don't want to make a fuss, then it's my turn to make a fuss."

Wenrou looked at her uncle's family and said coldly, "Over the years, my mother has given your family at least several hundred, if not a thousand. Even the money your family built for the new house was mostly from my family's money, which my father and brother earned by working themselves to the bone."

Now there are onlookers at the door, and Wenrou can finally settle accounts with her uncle's family.

When Li Xiuying heard Wenrou's words, she realized that she had been supporting her family for so long.

Every time she came over, as soon as the old lady started complaining about being poor, she couldn't help but want to help.

So, he secretly took all the money from home to subsidize them.

Wenrou then looked at Li Xiuying and said, "Mom, do you think Dad and my older brother don't know that you've been supporting your family all these years? They know better than anyone that they care about you and don't want to embarrass you, so they'd rather suffer themselves than hold it against you."

These gentle words struck a chord with Li Xiuying.

It was only then that she suddenly realized how much she had neglected her family over the years.

She originally thought that being good to her family would bring her rewards.

Now she understands that those who are truly good to her do not ask for anything in return.

"Xiuying, aren't you going to do something about your daughter? Is she trying to rebel?" The old lady's gaze fell on Li Xiuying, wanting her to ask Wenrou to get all the money back.

In the past, Li Xiuying would definitely have listened to her.

But after what just happened, she suddenly seemed to wake up.

This time, she didn't stop Wenrou; instead, she felt that Wenrou had done the right thing.

"Mom, I've given so much money to the family over the years, and now my son needs money to treat his leg, and this is how you treat me? I'm so disappointed in you."

"Sister, this isn't the time to talk about this. That money is for your nephew to get married. Do you want to see him remain a bachelor?" Wang Xiufang said from the side.

Her words ignited the anger in Li Xiuying's heart.

"Does your son have to become a cripple to get married?"

"Consider this money as repayment for all these years, Xiaorou, let's go." Li Xiuying didn't want to return the money either. She walked to Wenrou's side, pulled her, and was about to leave.

Seeing this, Li Jianguo certainly couldn't let them leave just like that.

He stood in front of Wenrou and Li Xiuying, and said in a threatening tone, "Big sister, why did you have to turn our family into this? I won't let you leave until you hand over the money today."

Wenrou was about to argue with Li Jianguo when a familiar voice rang out behind her.

"Let's see who dares to bully my wife!"
