Reborn as an 80s-aged woman, her unfilial son begs for forgiveness on his knees.

"Mom, how do we verify this?" Li Xiaojuan asked impatiently.

Zhang Wenying put down her teacup, her gaze calm: "This is our first time visiting his home, and we only know about his family from what they themselves have told us."

If you go there a couple more times in your spare time, you'll find out who lives there.

Furthermore, we can ask the neighbors around us; they all know exactly who owns the house.

Also, you've only known Song Dazhu for less than two months, but he's already pressured you to get married at least three times.

Judging by that house, it shows that he's not bad off, so why hasn't he gotten married yet?

Also, he seems to dislike you because you're divorced, yet he's very eager to marry you. Could there be some hidden reason behind this?

Upon hearing this, Li Xiaojuan's heart skipped a beat, and the color drained from her face.

Having learned her lesson from a failed marriage, she didn't want to blindly jump into another fire pit.

Marriage is not a game.

Mom doesn't necessarily want to break you up, she just doesn't want you to go through that process again in a confused state.

"These next couple of days, have Xiaomei and Wenbing accompany you to look around Song Dazhu's neighborhood, or even follow him for a couple of days to see if he goes back to the Hongxing Factory staff quarters."

Li Xiaojuan nodded, but felt as if a stone was pressing on her heart.

She agreed to date Song Dazhu because she liked his honesty and integrity, and he treated her well.

If all of this is fake, then this man is truly terrifying...

After leaving the hospital that day, Li Wenjun never went to see Li Jianguo again.

He Caifeng hadn't seen Li Wenhai for two days, so she could only put on a sullen face and take her son to the hospital to find him.

Upon entering the ward, He Caifeng glanced at Li Jianguo, who was half-dead on the bed, and then at Li Wenhai, who was sitting silently by the bedside. Her anger flared up instantly.

"Your father is in this state, and Li Xiaojuan hasn't even come to see him. Does she have any conscience at all? She's your father's own daughter!"

Li Wenhai looked impatient.

"Don't mention that brat. She's an ingrate. We've raised her for nothing all these years."

She hasn't even shown her face during the days her father has been hospitalized, let alone come to the hospital to take care of him.

And that bastard Li Wenjun, he said our father's hospitalization was because of us, but he wouldn't even take care of him for a single day.

He Caifeng was so angry that she kept cursing.

"Did Mom cause you trouble?"

Li Wenhai asked a question.

Why didn't you look for it?

All he wanted was for Xiaomei to take care of Dad for a couple of days, right?

But your mom went to my workplace and gave me a really bad scolding, and... she even hit me in front of a lot of people!

When this matter is mentioned, He Caifeng feels like killing Zhang Wenying.

"Not only did she hit you, but Mom also hit me when she came to the hospital and scolded Dad. The second son didn't escape either."

He Caifeng: "..."

Did Zhang Wenying practice Iron Palm?

None of them could escape Zhang Wenying's clutches.

He Caifeng grew angrier the more she thought about it. She plopped down in the chaise lounge, gritting her teeth as she said, "She's making such a scene, isn't she afraid of embarrassing herself!"

"Losing face is a small matter."

Xiaojuan doesn't come to the hospital, Mom doesn't come to the hospital, and we've been paying for Dad's hospitalization fees ourselves. The second child doesn't contribute a single cent.

And while Dad was hospitalized, neither my second nor third son came to visit. I just couldn't take it anymore.

Please take a day off tomorrow to look after Father. I need to go home, change my clothes, and get a good night's sleep. I'll come back to relieve you tonight.

"Why should I? He's your dad, not mine!"

Upon hearing this, Li Wenhai's face immediately darkened. "He Caifeng, what do you mean by that?"

Although Dad isn't your biological father, once you married into our family, you're a member of the Li family, and taking care of Dad is your natural duty.

Besides, Dad has treated you well all these years. When you gave birth, Dad even had someone buy you brown sugar. You can't say such heartless things!

He Caifeng burst into tears upon hearing this.

"How much is a pound of brown sugar worth? I've been married to you all these years and given you a son. He's a great contributor to your Li family. And you're still talking to me about brown sugar?"

Dad is also hospitalized, and we've already spent sixteen yuan. All of that money came from our family; the second and third sons didn't contribute a single penny.

"You're asking me to take time off to take care of Dad, but who will take care of the child?"

He Caifeng cried with such a wronged expression.

"Alright, stop crying."

Crying won't help. You have to take the day off tomorrow to take care of Dad. The child will be taken to daycare in the morning, and I'll pick him up in the evening.

He Caifeng wiped away her tears and glared at Li Wenhai resentfully.

"All you ever do is order me around!"

Look at my face, it's all from your mother beating me!

You've been beaten up like this, and you still want me to take care of your dad? Don't you have any conscience?!

Do you know how embarrassing I was that day?!

Looking at the bruises on He Caifeng's face, Li Wenhai felt a tightness in his chest and sighed, "I know you've been wronged, but given the current situation, our family really can't spare any more time."

Look at my face. My face was swollen from being beaten by my mom, and it still hurts.

"Both my husband and I were beaten by Mom. It's a painful experience for neither of us, but Dad's in the hospital, we can't just leave him alone, can we?"

He Caifeng wiped away the tears on her face.

"That old bitch Zhang Wenying has gone too far!"

She hit me, she hit you, and she hit Dad. I can't swallow this!

"Don't you think she's gone senile? She's even capable of harming her own son and daughter-in-law; isn't she afraid of retribution?"

Li Wenhai angrily rebuked, "He Caifeng, how dare you speak like that?"

That's my mom. Can't you watch your mouth?

Even if she's wrong, she's still an elder. What kind of talk will it make if word gets out that you're saying such things about her?

He Caifeng sneered: "Elder? She beat me up like this, what kind of elder is she to me?"

Don't forget, she's already cut ties with you!

Li Wenhai, if you had any backbone at all, you should have gone to your mother to beat her up, instead of trying to show off in front of me!

Li Wenhai was speechless, his face flushed red, and after a long while he finally said in a muffled voice, "That's my mother, how could I possibly lay a hand on her? It was my mother who wanted to sever ties with my mother, not me."

My mother is really something, always talking about severing ties with her husband. Why doesn't she just fly to the moon?

Li Wenhai was very envious as he watched the large sums of money go into his mother's pocket.

If he hadn't severed ties with his mother, he could have used his father's hospitalization as an excuse to squeeze some money out of her.

But now that he's cut off ties with his mother, he can't even get into her house, let alone ask her for money.

Seeing his pathetic state, He Caifeng became even angrier. She sat on the ground, slapped her thigh, and cried out, "I was so blind to marry such a good-for-nothing!"

"I'm bullied by your mother at home, ostracized by your brothers and sisters outside, and now your father is in the hospital and I have to pay for his care and treatment. What kind of life am I living?!"

She cried so loudly that other patients and their families in the ward craned their necks to look in her direction.

Li Wenhai felt his face burning and quickly pulled her away, saying, "Don't make a scene here, people will laugh at you!"
