When Song Yao rushed back, she saw a few people standing in the courtyard. Chen Lian, who was in the lead, shouted at the top of her lungs, âYour daughter is being unreasonable. I donât care if she wants to divorce my son! But how can she use my familyâs money to do business?â
Gu Li said angrily, âWhat are you talking about? Who took your money?â
âWhy didnât you take it? Otherwise, where did your daughter get the money to do business? Everyone is here to judge. How can you bully an honest person like this!â
Chen Lianâs voice wasnât soft. After a while, the Song familyâs door was filled with people. Chen Lian continued to shout at the top of her lungs, âOur sonâs money is in Song Yaoâs hands! This b*tch took my sonâs money and wants to take our eldest grandson away! Isnât she just bullying our son?â
âBullsh*t! If you hadnât taken Yaoâs six-month-old child away, would Yao have divorced your son? What do you mean by spending your sonâs money? Pfft!â After Gu Li finished speaking, she saw Song Yao enter the courtyard and immediately went up to her with a smile.
âDaughter! Youâre back?â
She put away the basket that Song Yao had put down and whispered, âNot long after you left, your mother-in-law came. She said that you spent her sonâs moneyâ¦â
Song Yao looked back at Chen Lian, who was in a sorry state, and said indifferently, âIâve never spent Yu Yongâs money.â
When Chen Lian heard this, she was immediately unhappy. âHow can you do business if you donât spend money? My son gives you a salary every month! What did he do to you? But you! Youâre clamoring to divorce my son because of such a small matter?â
How could giving a child that she had painstakingly given birth to to a comrade be considered a small matter? Song Yao was shocked by how shameless this old lady was!
However, this was also good! There were some things that had to be clarified sooner or later!
âSince youâre the one who brought it up, Iâll calculate it with you today! Your sonâs monthly salary is 50 yuan! He only gives me 35 yuan! I think you know better than me whose pocket the remaining 15 yuan went into!â
âIâve recorded those 35 yuan in my account book every month! We have a few people in our family, and Iâm the one who pays the usual expenses! Also, I send things to Yu Yongâs army every month! You should know all of this! Why are you asking me now?â
âThatâs also my sonâs money! Otherwise, where would you get the money to do business? Why do you still want to spend my sonâs money after the divorce?â
Chen Lian placed her hands on her hips. She didnât believe that a woman like Song Yao could use money to do business! She definitely relied on her son!
Song Yao sucked in a breath of cold air. âWhat do you mean by your sonâs money? Every cent he earns after marriage is joint property of the husband and wife! I also have a share of your familyâs land! As for you saying that I spent his money? As a man, doesnât Yu Yong have to pay for the childâs support? Did I give birth to the child alone?â
Seeing that she couldnât win against Song Yao, Chen Lian gritted her teeth in anger. âPfft! What do you mean by common property?! Land is our Yu Familyâs land! That belongs to my son! My eldest grandson is also our Old Yu Familyâs eldest grandson! What does it have to do with you?! Song Yao, let me tell you! Either you continue to live with my son now, or return my eldest grandson and money to me!â
Seeing how aggressive Chen Lian was, Song Xiao said bluntly, âStupid old woman! What did my sister do to your Yu family? Iâll tell you today! My sister is definitely getting a divorce! As for you! Get out of my house!â
The young man in his teens was furious. Chen Lian was a little afraid. âIs this how you talk to your elders? Song Yao! Is this the upbringing of your Song family?â
Song Yao sneered. âMom! On account that I havenât divorced Yu Yong yet, Iâll call you Mom! But itâs impossible not to get a divorce! If you want money, let Yu Yong come and get it himself!â
After Song Yao finished speaking, she pushed Chen Lian out of the courtyard. She didnât care how Chen Lian scolded outside the door and refused to open the door no matter what!
Song Yao entered the house and started to coax her son. Gu Li pouted at the door. âI thought she came all the way here to see her grandson. I didnât expect her to come here to ask for money!â
Song Yao snorted coldly. âI havenât asked her for the dowry and land deed yet, but sheâs so good! She even took the initiative to look for me.â
Gu Li poured a bowl of brown sugar water for Song Yao. âBut youâre really too much! You actually asked Yu Yong to come to our door. Are you really planning to give him the child and money?â
Song Yao finished the brown sugar water in her bowl. âThe child must belong to me! The child support fees canât be reduced at all. Itâs useless for Yu Yong to look for me! If she has the ability, she can sue me in court! Everyone in the village knows that Yu Yong sent the child away. I donât believe that the court will give the child to such a person, and I donât believe that the law wonât let us get a single cent!â
