Returning wealthy individuals develop their hometowns and become rich in the 1980s

"So what do you suggest we do?"

Liu Jiashui seemed to have been waiting for her older brother to say these words. She sat down in the empty seat next to Liu Guomin, and with a painstakingly earnest expression, said, "Brother, Shaozhong and Shaoqun are your children, and they will be your future support. If you don't fight for them now, you won't even have a place to cry when they are taken abroad."

"As the old saying goes, you have to store up food for rainy days. Brother, you need to think about your future now," Liu Jiashui said, glancing at her husband Fang Songmao. Fang Songmao nodded subtly. Liu Jiashui then said, "Brother, you have two paths to choose from now on. It's up to you which one you choose."

Liu Guomin frowned, looking down as he smoked. "Those two packs?"

"Either you ignore it and let Chen Lianxiang take the three children away, you won't get any benefits. When you get old and can't work anymore, your nephews and nieces, if they can make a living, can at least help you out with a meal or two."

At this point, Liu Jiashui's tone changed, "Either you go to Lianzhai and find Chen Lianxiang, and confront her. You're divorced, but you're still the biological father of your three children, and you still have visitation rights and custody rights. If Chen Lianxiang dares to take the children abroad, you can sue her in court, sue her... sue her for stripping you of your rights..."

"Sue her for depriving you of your visitation and custody rights, and ask the court to award custody of the three children back to you, their biological father," Fang Songmao continued, picking up where his wife Liu Jiashui left off. Upon hearing her son-in-law's words, Liu Lishi's eyes lit up immediately, and she chimed in, "Yes, Songmao and Jiashui are right. Make that bitch Chen Lianxiang pay you back."

"Mother, we're not doing this for the money, but to leave a way out for our eldest brother," Liu Jiashui corrected her mother, Liu Lishi. She emphasized that it wasn't for the money, as if she was trying to convince herself and also trying to convince her eldest brother.

Liu Guomin fell silent upon hearing this. The cigarette in his hand had already burned down to the middle, and the ash had fallen onto his pants, but he didn't even notice.

After a long silence, Liu Guomin finally raised his head and said in a muffled voice, "But Chen Zaixing did give me five thousand yuan on the day of the divorce. If I go back to them now, do you think they'll agree to it?"

Fang Songmao waved his hand and shook his head, saying, "Brother-in-law, five thousand yuan is five thousand yuan. That was the compensation money Chen Zaixing gave me when we got divorced. I asked my friends in town, and legally, visitation rights and that five thousand yuan are two different things."

"You are the biological father of these three children. No one can take away your visitation rights unless you, as their biological father, voluntarily give them up. In that case, no one can help you!"

"I don't want anything else," Liu Guomin sighed, his voice a little hoarse. "I just want to be able to see the children every now and then, to know that they are safe and sound, and that will be enough for me."

"If you really go to America with her... then the children should remember that they still have a father."

Sensing a softening in her son's voice, Liu Li immediately shouted again, "Yes, Guomin, you have to let that bitch Chen Lianxiang know that even after the divorce, you're still the biological father of our three children. If she dares to take all three children away, I...I..."

Liu Li stammered for a long time, but in the end, she couldn't say anything harsh. The main reason was that the Chen family in Lianzhai was no longer someone that Liu Li could easily offend.

Fang Songmao glanced at his mother-in-law, who was all bark and no bite, but didn't respond. He continued to say to Liu Guomin, "Brother-in-law, since you think so, I'll accompany you to Lianzhai these next two days. We're not going to argue with them, just to pick up the child and see him."

"By the way, ask Chen Lianxiang. If she really intends to take the three children abroad, she should at least consult with you, her biological father. How can she make decisions on her own? Once things are out in the open, we'll see her attitude."

"If she's reasonable, we'll discuss it and figure out how much compensation you should receive, brother-in-law. We'll discuss it based on the actual situation. If she's unreasonable, then we'll sue her in the district court."

"Sue her in court?" Liu Guomin hesitated. "Wouldn't that be going too far?"

He Lushi had already returned to the main room with her little grandson. Seeing Liu Guomin hesitating, she said, "Uncle, why are you being so indecisive? They're planning to take your three children abroad without your permission, and you're still thinking about them."

"Besides, you're not really planning to sue her in court. You're just going to talk to her about it," said Madam He, glancing at her daughter He Guiqin who had come over to agree. "She's hooked up with a rich man from America and is planning to get married."

"Rich people like that are all about saving face and avoiding trouble. Don't argue with him. Just reason with him and present the facts. Ask him what he plans to do about it. He's going to take your care of you in your old age, so he should at least compensate you!"

He Guiqin understood the unspoken meaning in her mother He Lüshi's eyes, and she chimed in, "Yes, Uncle, you raised Shaozhong and Shaoqun with great difficulty. As the old saying goes, the kindness of giving birth is great, and the kindness of raising is heavy. They just took the children away without a word or any compensation. No matter what, they are in the wrong, and you are in the right!"

"Okay," Liu Guomin said solemnly, stubbing out his cigarette butt into the ashtray. "Tomorrow, Songmao, you and I will go to Lianzhai. I want to explain some things to her in person."

"You're right to think that way, folks," Liu Li's smile bloomed like an old chrysanthemum. The Chen family was so rich that Liu Li was envious. Her grandson's uncles were all big bosses, and not being able to benefit from their wealth was more painful for Liu Li than being killed.

Especially that bitch Chen Lianxiang, now she's the general manager of a clothing factory, wearing gold and silver and riding in luxury cars. If I had been more restrained back then, maybe the life Chen Lianxiang is living now would be the one Liu Li is enjoying.

If they want to take away the Liu family's children, Liu Li won't give in without some bloodshed. This time, when her eldest son Liu Guomin and son-in-law Fang Songmao go to talk, she must tell her son-in-law to speak up and offer suggestions.

Otherwise, since the eldest son is not good with words, he might get scared by those bastards in the Chen family, and the matter might just be dropped.

If they want to take the child away, fine. The Chen family is so rich now, and I heard that the wild man from America is also rich. They'll have to compensate the Liu family at least a hundred thousand or two. Otherwise, Liu Li will hang herself at the gate of the Chen family's courtyard rather than give in.

Thinking of this, Liu Li looked at her son-in-law, wanting to ask him to come out and talk, but seeing his serious expression, she could only say to her daughter Liu Jiashui, "Jiashui, come out, I have something to say to you."

"What is it, Mother?" Liu Jiashui followed her mother, Liu Li, out. Liu Li looked around to make sure no one was watching before whispering, "Tell Songmao to ask the Chen family for a hundred or two hundred thousand yuan in compensation. Not a penny less!"

"One or two hundred thousand? Mother, you really dare to ask for that!"
