Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
You good-for-nothing! You still have the cheek to come back! Do you know how humiliated your younger sister and I were when we went to the Xia familys place today! Do you know how that family treated us! Old Madam Kong said angrily.
Who says you can go and look for Xia He! Kong Lu looked at Old Madam Kong in shock and questioned her.
If I dont go and look for her, am 1 supposed to wait for you to do it? Its all your fault, you piece of trash. If you have managed to win back Xia He again, I wont be in such a difficult situation now! Old Madam Kong said as she sighed.
Kong Lu did not say anything. He was already numb to the antics of this family. Even if Old Madam Kong told him that she wanted to marry an old man, he would not find it strange.
Old Madam Kong scolded him for a long time before she stopped. She looked at Kong Lu in disdain and said, Give me another 100 dollars. Your two younger brothers dont have any money left and cant even afford to buy food. You should help them out.
l already gave them money last month. 1 only have four dollars left now. I
havent received this months salary, so I dont have any money to give them, Kong Lu said.
You dont have money? If you dont have money, then think of a way to get some! Go and borrow money from Xia He! If you can hold on to Xia He, will we still need to live like this? Look at the house that she lives in. Its such a big house and theres enough space for our entire family!
Quickly think of a way to persuade Xia He to come back to you! Your younger sister and I even knelt in front of her today! It was so embarrassing! Old Madam Kong shouted.
Kong Lu said whatever he needed to say to get Old Madam Kong to calm down. He would think about how to deal with it later.
In the coming days, Kong Lu went to work as usual. All of a sudden, his superiors asked him to pack his things and go back to his hometown. The promotion he was waiting for had already been given to someone else.
Old Madam Kong also received news from her hometown that her two sons had been arrested by the local police. They were suspected of being involved in gambling, prostitution, theft and intentional assault, among other crimes.
Her second son was jailed for at least five years and her third son was even jailed for 12 years! Now, there were only women and children left in the Kong family. Almost all the men were in prison.
Kong Lu! What exactly is going on! Whats going to happen to your younger brothers! Old Madam Kong wept as she spoke to Kong Lu.
What else can we do? I told you to discipline them back then, but what did you do? They have ended up like this because you didnt teach them well! Theres nothing 1 can do! Kong Lu said.
Youre their eldest brother! Whos going to help them if you dont! Old Madam Kong roared.
Youre their mother! Why dont you help them! I dont even have a job now! This house has already been taken back! We have to pack up and go home tomorrow! I dont know how were going to survive in the future! Kong Lu said as he broke down.
What? What are you talking about? How can you have lost your job? Old Madam Kong asked in surprise.
Its all thanks to you. The Xia family and Sun Fei from downstairs went to my superior to report all those things you did! My position has now been taken over by someone else! Are you satisfied now? From now on, Ill just go home and farm. I want to see what else you want to do next, Kong Lu said.
Then what about your younger brothers! Old Madam Kong shouted agitatedly.
You should be glad that the Xia family is merciful. They only have to stay in prison for a few years. Just the fact that they tried to abduct a girl! Thats enough for them to be executed 800 times! Kong Lu said.
In this era, anyone who molested a girl would be arrested and deemed to be a hooligan! If one went around kissing a girl! One could get the death penalty!
Furthermore, Kong Lus two younger brothers had bullied more than one girl!
The Xia family was already very benevolent. Otherwise, it would already be the third death anniversary for Kong Lus two younger brothers!
Kong Lu left the capital dejectedly with Old Madam Kong and Kong Li. Xia He could finally get a good nights sleep. Recently, Qiao Mei had stayed by Qiao Qiangs side every day and observed his emotions carefully. When she was sure that he could face the Gao familys grandfather-and grandson duo calmly, she gathered everyone together so that she could tell them about what happened back in the past.
Qiao Mei also asked Xu Lan and Xia Wen to join them. She needed to let the Xia family know what was going on and did not want to hide anything from them..
