Hard work after winning the lottery

The honest and simple elders in the family, and even the children who were only a few years old, had obviously been won over by this man who suddenly appeared!

Hua An gritted his teeth, his chest heaving violently.

Although he was not at home, his feelings for his sister were deeper than anyone else's.

He saw all the pressure and suffering his sister endured when she gave birth out of wedlock, and it pained him deeply.

In Hua An's mind, that "brother-in-law" he had never met had been torn to pieces a thousand times.

That's a piece of trash!

He's a heartless man who abandoned his wife and children!

How dare they come back now?

Do you want to just pick the peaches and take the child and sister you've raised with all your hard work away with them?

No way!

"Which bastard...?"

Hua An cursed under his breath, his eyes reddening.

He felt a deep sense of powerlessness and betrayal.

Such a momentous event had occurred in his family, yet no one had informed him beforehand.

He was kept in the dark, working overtime in City C like a fool, desperately trying to earn that meager salary.

When I turned around, my house was about to be "robbed"!

The children on the other end of the phone seemed to sense that their uncle was in a bad mood, and their voices gradually faded.

"Uncle, are you unhappy?"

Si Tao asked cautiously, her tone tinged with grievance.

"We thought you would be happy..."

Hearing the child's soft, sweet voice, Hua An took a deep breath and forcibly suppressed the murderous urge that welled up inside him.

You shouldn't get angry at your child.

What do children know?

They simply longed for a father's love and a complete family.

The child wasn't at fault; the man who took advantage of the situation and the foolish older sister were!

Hua An closed his eyes, trying to make his voice sound less menacing.

"Good boy/girl, your uncle isn't upset."

He tried to slow his tone, like a big bad wolf coaxing a little white rabbit.

"But... my uncle was too surprised."

"Sitao, Sile, Si'an, be good."

Hua An's knuckles cracked as he gripped his phone; he needed to figure out what was going on immediately.

"Give the phone to Mom."

He said it with absolute certainty, leaving no room for doubt.

"My little uncle wants to talk to my mom now."

"immediately."

Si Tao held her phone, her big eyes filled with confusion, startled by her uncle's suddenly stern tone.

Although he was mischievous, he was also extremely perceptive and noticed the low-pressure atmosphere coming from the other end of the phone.

"Mom... Uncle wants to talk to you."

The little guy handed the phone to Hua Yun, who was sitting next to him peeling an orange, his voice timid.

Hua Yun was taken aback. She had just peeled half of the orange peel off her hand, and it was emitting a sweet fragrance.

Looking at her son's guilty expression, a bad feeling suddenly rose in her heart.

The children were chattering excitedly announcing the good news just a moment ago, how did the atmosphere change so suddenly?

She grabbed a tissue, quickly wiped her hands, and took the slightly hot phone.

The family members were all sitting around the brazier in the main room, laughing and talking about how cute Sitao and the others had looked when they grabbed the phone earlier.

Seeing that Hua Yun's expression was off, they all stopped what they were doing and focused their attention on her.

Hua Yun took a deep breath, brought the receiver close to her ear, and tried to speak in a relaxed tone.

"Feeding? Xiao An, it's me, your older sister. Why are you so late..."

However, before she could finish speaking, she was abruptly interrupted by a roar from the other end of the phone.

"Sis! What happened?!"

Hua An's voice was no longer its usual gentle and obedient tone, but was full of gunpowder, like a long-suppressed volcano finally erupting.

The sound was so loud that even Li Guifen, who was sitting next to her, could vaguely hear it, which startled her so much that she dropped the melon seeds in her hand to the ground.

Hua Yun's heart skipped a beat. She subconsciously glanced at her worried parents and children around her, picked up her phone, and took two steps to the side.

"Xiao An, keep your voice down, why are you so angry?"

"I'll get angry? Can I not get angry?!"

Hua An paced back and forth in the rented room, his feet pounding on the floor as if venting his anger.

"Sister, tell me honestly, which bastard dared to steal my three nephews away?"

"Where did that so-called 'father' come from?"

"I still want to marry you? I still want to have a wedding?"

This barrage of questions, like a machine gun, each word like a poisoned arrow, pierced Hua Yun's heart.

Hua An's rapid breathing was clearly transmitted through the electric current, carrying a ferocious urge to devour someone.

"When did this happen? Were you already in contact?"

Why didn't anyone in my family tell me?

"Am I an outsider? Huh? Am I an unwanted person in this family?"

These accusations made Hua Yun feel a pang of sadness.

She could hear the tremor in her brother's voice; it was a mixture of extreme anger and deep resentment.

Back then, she became pregnant out of wedlock, and rumors flew all over the village. It was Hua'an, who was still in school, who took a broom and chased those gossiping people out of their homes.

For the sake of his family, for her and their three children, he gave up the opportunity to take the postgraduate entrance exam and started working early, working tirelessly in this cold city.

But now, his family has undergone tremendous changes, and he is the last to know.

How could he not break down?

Hua Yun tightened her grip on her phone, and her eyes instantly welled up with tears.

"Xiao An, listen to me, it's not what you think..."

She tried to explain, attempting to soothe her brother's agitated emotions with a gentle voice.

"What do you mean it's not what I think?"

Hua An wouldn't listen to any explanations; his mind was filled with images of his sister being scammed and his nephew being robbed.

He abruptly stopped and roared into his phone, "If it's not what I think, then what is?"

"Could it be that that man did something truly miraculous?"

"Sis, don't be fooled! I'm a man, I know men best!"

Hua An's voice cracked with excitement, sounding particularly jarring in the quiet of the night.

"How long have I been away from home? At most a year!"

"In such a short time, someone has already broken into our home?"

"The children call him 'Dad,' and you agreed to marry him, even your whole family switched sides?"

Hua An found it utterly absurd.

What kind of spell did that man cast on his family?

"Dad? Pshaw!"

"Where was he all this time?"

Where was he when you were heavily pregnant and being pointed at and gossiped about?

"Where was Sitao when he was sick and had a high fever in the middle of the night, and you were carrying him, stumbling through the deep water, to the clinic?"

Hua An became increasingly angry as she spoke, tears welling up in her eyes. It was out of heartache, but even more so out of feeling sorry for her sister.
