Reborn as an 80s-aged woman, her unfilial son begs for forgiveness on his knees.
Chapter 129 What are you doing here: Where did you go wrong?
Li Wenjun now harbors no resentment towards his mother, only gratitude and reverence.
"Brother, you're still young, try to think more positively."
As long as we work hard and diligently, things will get better.
Don't concern yourself with the affairs of the He family.
Let them do whatever they want; the more you get involved, the more you'll get yourself involved.
After Li Wenjun offered a few words of comfort, Li Wenhai felt a little better and went home.
When He Caifeng saw that Li Wenhai was ignoring her, her anger flared up instantly.
That day after work, she went straight to Zhang Wenying's shop.
It was already late, and Zhang Wenying was having dinner with her family at the shop.
Everyone saw her arrive, but no one paid any attention to her, as if she were invisible.
He Caifeng smelled the aroma coming from the table, and her stomach rumbled loudly.
She stared wide-eyed at the crowd in the shop who were completely ignoring her, feeling an uncontrollable rage welling up inside her.
Zhang Wenying ignored her, and even her two sisters-in-law didn't take her seriously.
But she didn't dare to be presumptuous in front of Zhang Wenying, so she just shamelessly pulled up a chair and sat down at the table.
Upon seeing her, Li Xiaomei immediately put down her chopsticks and gave her a cold glance: "What are you doing here?"
Several pairs of eyes at the dinner table turned to He Caifeng.
He Caifeng was furious, but she didn't feel embarrassed at all. Instead, she said coldly, "Xiaomei, I've come to see you."
"My sister-in-law hasn't eaten yet, go get me a bowl of rice."
Li Xiaomei subconsciously got up, wanting to get some rice.
He Caifeng used to be like this at home, and Li Xiaomei was used to being controlled by her.
But as soon as she stood up, she stopped and glanced at her mother.
Zhang Wenying slowly picked up a piece of food with her chopsticks, and said without looking up, "We didn't cook your meal. If you want to eat, go home and cook for yourself."
He Caifeng's face stiffened; she hadn't expected Zhang Wenying to be so disrespectful to her.
In an instant, shame, grievance, anger, and resentment almost overwhelmed He Caifeng's reason.
Her instinct was to reach out and flip the table.
Okay, so you won't let her eat it?
Then everyone should stop eating!
But no matter how hard she tried, the table wouldn't budge.
Zhang Wenying and the others each occupied a spot, steadily pressing down on the table.
Zhang Wenying then raised her eyes, her gaze calm yet icy: "He Caifeng, if you want to go crazy, go back to your own home and do it. Don't cause trouble here. I won't tolerate your behavior here."
He Caifeng regained her senses and slowly withdrew her hand from the edge of the table. She bit her lip, her eyes reddening, but she stubbornly refused to let the tears fall.
Zhang Wenying, you are so cruel!
You don't care about your own grandson, but don't you care about your son's future either?
Ever since Wenhai and I got married, you've been deliberately making things difficult for us. You don't help us take care of the kids, you don't feed us, you don't give us money, and you don't even let us live in your spare rooms.
Do you really dislike us that much? Do you even care about Li Wenhai as your son?
Zhang Wenying looked at He Caifeng indifferently.
"It seems I'm still too soft-hearted."
I shouldn't have let you move out and live in my yard without feeling guilty.
Since you insist on severing ties, then I'll make things clear to you today.
Zhang Wenying put down her chopsticks, her voice soft but clear.
"He Caifeng, in all these years since you married into the Li family, I have never wronged you."
When Wenhai got married, I emptied my savings to buy you everything – the dowry, the house, the furniture.
You said you wanted to move out, and I, Zhang Wenying, lent you money to buy a yard, have you forgotten?
I just paid off the loan for the apartment you live in last month.
You said I was busy with work and asked your parents to come over and help take care of the child, and I said okay.
I didn't help you take care of the baby, but I took care of you for a full hundred days after your postpartum period.
Not only the baby's diapers, but I've also washed your dirty clothes for a hundred days. Tell me honestly, what have I, Zhang Wenying, ever done to wrong you? And yet, you turn around and say to others that I'm mean and biased.
Am I biased? If I were truly biased, I wouldn't have lent you money to buy the yard, nor would I have taken care of you during your postpartum period.
Ask yourself honestly, have you ever shown me, your mother-in-law, even the slightest respect over the years?
You ate at home for three whole years after you got married, and I never asked you for a single penny for food expenses.
Now you actually want to overturn my dinner table? Who do you think you are!
Even if Li Jianguo were here, he wouldn't dare to overturn my table!
He Caifeng was speechless after being bombarded with questions. Her lips trembled, but she still refused to admit defeat.
She stared intently at Zhang Wenying, her voice trembling: "They're all born of the same mother, but look at Li Wenbing, these two girls, and Li Wenjun, why are they allowed to eat here!"
You're discriminating against me!
You had five children, but only Wenhai and I can't sit at the table. Isn't that favoritism?
"Zhang Wenying, I've never seen such a vicious mother!"
"I am vicious, so what can you do about it?"
I haven't eaten a single grain of rice or drunk a single drop of water from you, so what right do you have to criticize me?
I raised five children, and I fed each of them myself, bite by bite.
Li Wenbing and Li Xiaomei ate here; it was money they earned through their labor.
Li Wenjun and Li Xiaojuan ate here, and they paid for their own meals.
Where are you, He Caifeng? Have you ever given me a single penny? Have you ever bought a single scallion for the family?
If you keep nagging, you're moving out of that yard right now!
Why should I move?
That house belongs to Li Wenhai, so I have the right to live there!
Zhang Wenying sneered: "Li Wenhai's? The property certificate is right here. Open your eyes and see whose name is on it!"
"I borrowed money to buy this courtyard, and it's registered in my name, Zhang Wenying. I can let you live here, and I can also make you get out!"
He Caifeng panicked immediately, her face turning deathly pale.
She never imagined that the house didn't belong to Li Wenhai at all!
"You...you're cheating! This house was bought for our son, why should it be in your name?!"
"I paid for this house, I can put whose name on it whichever's name I want, who are you to act so arrogantly here?"
Zhang Wenying slammed her hand on the table, making the bowls and chopsticks bounce. "Either get out of here now and live a quiet life, and don't cause any more trouble, or move out right now! You choose!"
He Caifeng's legs went weak and she almost sat down on the ground.
They've moved out, so where will they live? They can't possibly squeeze into that cramped, tiny dormitory at their workplace, can they?
If she really moves out, her parents will scold her to death.
Looking at Zhang Wenying's cold, hard face, she knew the other woman meant what she said. Her tough stance instantly crumbled, and tears welled up in her eyes. "Mom, I was wrong. I was just anxious today, that's why I talked nonsense. Please don't take it to heart..."
Zhang Wenying wasn't buying it at all, and looked at her coldly: "What did you do wrong?"
