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

The three of them were carrying a lot of things, all of which were rare items that they rarely saw before: white sugar, noodles, canned goods, two bottles of malted milk powder, and two pounds of brown sugar.

She had barely entered the door when Li Jianguo pointed at her and berated her for being shameful.

"Zhang Wenying, the second son truly loves Pan Wenfang."

But what are you trying to achieve by making such a fuss?

Are you trying to force him to die?

You even faked illness to extort money and goods from people. How did you become like this!

Aren't you making us a laughingstock among the neighbors?

Zhang Wenying touched the wound on her forehead, glanced at him sideways, and said in a tone as cold as ice: "What's wrong with laughing at me? It's better than letting someone ride on your neck and shit on you, and having a belly full of pent-up resentment."

That day and what happened that day clearly showed that the Pan family didn't respect me, Zhang Wenying, nor did they respect our Li family. If I back down, they'll be able to ride roughshod over our whole family from now on. You may be willing to put up with this, but I'm not."

She turned and pulled Li Xiaomei, who was still standing there in a daze, and said in a voice so clear that the remaining relatives in the courtyard could hear her clearly: "I'm putting my words out here today, I've had enough of this life."

Li Jianguo, let's get a divorce!

My three sons are all grown up now, and they can live with whomever they want. I only want my two daughters. I'll raise them myself; it's better than being treated like slaves in this house every day.

"You...you..."

Li Jianguo was so angry that his face turned red and his neck bulged.

"You hit someone and you still think you're right?"

Do you know how the children and I got through the two days you were away?

No one cooks meals at home, no one washes dishes, no one does laundry, yet you're hiding in the hospital pretending to be sick and enjoying your leisure time!

How dare you bring up divorce with me now?

Zhang Wenying, you've gotten too bold, haven't you?

"dad!"

Li Xiaojuan suddenly interrupted her father.

"Dad, how could you say that about Mom?"

So many people saw it: Pan Wenfang's father broke my mother's head, and blood flowed down her collar!

Not only did you not visit her in the hospital, but you also sided with outsiders.

"You only care about the Pan family; do you know the pain my mother has suffered?"

Li Jianguo's face stiffened.

"The doctor said your mother is fine, just a little upset and her heart is about to break out. A little IV fluid will do the trick, right?"

Why pretend to be sick to ask for more money?

What about money?

Bring it to me.

I went to the state-run restaurant to buy some food to eat.

Li Jianguo spoke with righteous indignation, and Li Wenhai added, "Mom, Caifeng is hungry."

If you don't give us money, go to the kitchen and cook some food for us to fill our stomachs.

"We haven't had a proper meal in the past two days while you were away."

Upon hearing this, Zhang Wenying immediately laughed in anger.

It's ridiculous. She's lying in the hospital bleeding and suffering, while these men are at home eating and lazily waiting to be served. They've been starving for two days, and now it's her fault?

"If you want rice, cook it yourself. I have no money, but I'll give you my life."

Zhang Wenying slung the cloth bag containing the money behind her back, shielding her daughter behind her. "I'm telling you, I'm getting a divorce today. I don't want this family anymore. I'm not going to live with you anymore!"

"If you're so capable, then live on your own. Don't expect me to do your laundry, cook for you, or take care of your whole family!"

Li Jianguo was trembling with rage and raised his hand to strike, but Li Xiaomei grabbed a hoe from behind the door and stood in front of Zhang Wenying, her eyes red as she roared, "You dare touch my mother! If you dare hit my mother today, I'll fight you to the death!"

Li Jianguo was stunned that his usually timid youngest daughter dared to challenge him. He pointed at Zhang Wenying and yelled, "Look at the good daughters you've raised! They're all going to rebel!"

"What's wrong with rebelling? It's better than being like you, a coward your whole life, watching your wife and kids get bullied without daring to say a word!"

Zhang Wenying pushed Li Xiaomei aside and stepped forward herself, saying, "Go ahead and hit me! If you don't kill me today, you're a coward. I've had enough of this life anyway, let's settle things today!"

The relatives who came to mediate all realized something was wrong and pulled Li Jianguo aside to persuade him. They argued that the Li family was in the right, the Pan family had gone too far, and Zhang Wenying's actions were justified.

Besides, if they really get divorced, their three sons will all be grown up, and Li Jianguo will be the one who suffers.

Li Jianguo was pulled back by the crowd and couldn't get off the stage. He could only jump up and down and curse Zhang Wenying for being a shrew, saying that he would never divorce her.

With plenty of food and drink at home, and a confidante outside, he's not going to get a divorce.

Although Zhang Wenying is a bit rough around the edges, she's a very capable worker.

She manages everything at home and outside the home perfectly, never causing him any worry.

If it weren't for his family's poverty back then, and the fact that Zhang Wenying had given birth to five children for him and they had registered their marriage, he would have divorced her long ago.

He is very content with his life now.

But Zhang Wenying is no longer the Zhang Wenying who could be easily manipulated.

This woman has gone mad for some reason; she's become domineering and disobedient, and she even hits people at the slightest provocation.

"Mom, stop making a scene!"

My spot to study abroad has already been decided.

Your priority now is to find a way to raise the funds needed for my trip abroad; sending me abroad is the most important thing.

"Mom, don't listen to your older brother."

He's been gone for three or four years, and he might even stay abroad and not come back.

Giving him so much money might just be throwing it away.

You should give the job to Wenfang.

Wenfang said that if you give her your job, she'll agree to marry into the family and will take good care of you in the future.

"Mom, you promised to leave your job to me."

You can't give it to Pan Wenfang.

Li Wenbing, fearing his mother would lose her job, stood aside and weakly said something.

Recalling her tragic end in her previous life, Zhang Wenying was filled with rage and grabbed a broom to give all three of her sons a severe beating.

Li Wenjun was beaten and screamed in pain.

"Mom, do you really have to cause such chaos at home just for a job?"

"As long as you give up your job to Wenfang, you can stay at home and enjoy a life of leisure. I'm doing this all for your own good!"

Zhang Wenying glanced coldly at her three sons and Li Jianguo, feeling a mix of bitterness and anger in her heart.

She quickly calmed herself down.

Getting angry at these people is punishing yourself.

In her previous life, she had a terminal illness because she was always brooding and making things difficult for herself.

She wants a divorce; she wants to leave this heartless bastard!

"Alright, stop arguing."

Li Jianguo's head was throbbing from the noise, and he couldn't help but roar.

"Zhang Wenying, you hit me and scolded me, I won't hold it against you."

But your son and Pan Wenfang have already reached the point of discussing marriage. You caused such a scene at the wedding, and now the Pan family is making trouble at your home. That's your own fault.

Tomorrow, let your second son pick up Pan Wenfang. You should give up your job to Pan Wenfang, apologize to her properly, and then our family can live a good life together from now on.

As for the boss... we'll figure something out later.
