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

Li Wenjun quickly shrank his neck.

"I'd better not, I'm afraid my mom will beat me up."

The mere mention of his mother's fierceness sent shivers down Li Wenjun's spine.

His mother has a temper that can turn on you in an instant. Last time, he only asked one question about the compensation, and his mother chased him for half a street with a broom. He still feels embarrassed when he thinks about that scene.

Seeing his cowardly appearance, Li Wenhai was too lazy to pay attention to him anymore. He turned to Li Jianguo and said, "Dad, from now on, let's not bother Mom anymore."

Since she's determined to sever ties with us, any further visits would only humiliate us.

Your health can't take any more strain.

Besides, Dad always criticizes his boss, no matter who he's criticizing.

If Shen Mingyuan takes this seriously, how will he get along at work?

Looking at his two sons, each more cowardly than the other, Li Jianguo felt a chill run down his spine.

He was a tough man when he was young, but now he is in poor health and can't rely on either of his two sons.

He's not even old yet. If he gets old, who can he rely on?

He Caifeng has been throwing pots and bowls around while cooking lately, clearly giving him a hard time.

The more Li Jianguo thought about it, the more disheartened he felt. In his entire life, Zhang Wenying was the most reliable person.

Looking at his silent father, Li Wenhai pushed up his glasses, cleared his throat, and said, "Second son, it wasn't easy for Dad to raise us."

He's not feeling well right now, so as his sons, we should at least do our part to show him filial piety.

It's only right that your sister-in-law and I take care of Dad every day, but as his child, you can't just ignore him, can you?

"How about this, you give the family ten yuan every month, consider it a filial offering to Dad." Li Wenjun's face immediately fell when he heard that he had to pay money.

"Brother, you make it sound so easy for you to say that."

How much do I earn in a month?

Giving my mom twenty dollars means half of my salary is gone.

"Give Dad another ten yuan, and I won't even be able to feed myself."

"Stop complaining about being poor." Li Wenhai frowned, his tone tinged with impatience.

"You only have yourself to eat, unlike me, who has a family to support and expenses are huge."

If he could just scrape together ten yuan from his parents, the family's dinner expenses for the month would be covered, and he could relax a bit.

Li Wenhai looked down on his younger brother.

Foolish, unable to judge people, and selfish.

Li Wenjun scratched his hair in frustration.

"I never said I wouldn't take care of my dad."

My dad has his own salary, and it's higher than mine, so why is he so fixated on the little money I have?

My mother doesn't want us anymore, so I have to pay for my own food, clothing, and other necessities every day.

Over the years, Dad has never contributed a single penny to the family; we've relied entirely on Mom's meager salary to make ends meet.

It would be really unreasonable for him not to have some money saved up.

Since Dad has money, why does he insist that I pay these ten dollars?

Brother, aren't you putting me in a difficult position? With my meager monthly salary, after deducting food and drink, how much can I possibly have left?

Li Wenhai was so choked by his younger brother's retort that his face turned pale. He unconsciously tapped his knee twice with his fingers, and after a long while, he said in a low voice, "Second brother, you can't settle things like that."

Our parents raised us, so how can we, as their sons, be so calculating with them?

The little money Dad has is his retirement fund; we can't touch it.

Besides, Dad's health isn't good right now, and medical treatment and medicine all cost money.

The little savings he had were for emergencies.

As sons, it's our duty to contribute some money every month.

"And you, all you ever talk about is your meager salary. Do you think Dad's kindness in raising us is worth only ten dollars?"

Upon hearing this, Li Wenjun also became angry.

"Brother, don't just talk about being filial; show us something in reality."

You are a college student, that's true, but supporting a college student has almost emptied the family's savings.

And when you got married, you gave the He family two hundred yuan as a bride price alone.

Although Mom has taken the house back, you've lived there for many years.

You have a stable job and a comfortable life now, but you come to me to settle a score for ten dollars.

"If you're so capable, pay back all the money you've spent over the past few years first."

These words struck a nerve with Li Wenhai, who suddenly stood up, pointed at Li Wenjun, and cursed, "You bastard! What do you mean by that?"

When I was in school, my parents were willing to support me. What are you envious of?

Besides, it was only natural for my parents to give me a bride price when I got married. What do you, an unmarried bachelor, know?

Don't forget, your job was found for you by your mother through connections. Doesn't finding a job cost money?

Furthermore, if you hadn't indulged Pan Wenfang in humiliating Mom even before she entered the house, how could Mom have been so angry as to divorce Dad and abandon us?

Li Wenjun, feeling humiliated by his elder brother's scolding, stood up abruptly and retorted, "I indulge Pan Wenfang? Brother, you should speak with a clear conscience!"

It's clearly Mom who's being unreasonable, finding fault with Pan Wenfang at every turn, and nitpicking.

It's just making a fuss with the matchmaker, isn't it?

What's the big deal?

They insisted on turning against each other and making things spiral out of control.

"If she weren't so intolerant, I would be living with Wenfang by now, and Wenfang wouldn't have to suffer like this."

Li Wenjun was furious when the matter was brought up.

What's wrong with Wenfang?

With such good looks and a gentle personality, it's no wonder she attracts the attention of the opposite sex.

But isn't that normal?

A pretty woman will attract attention when she walks down the street, but her mother insisted that she was indecent and scolded her in front of so many people, making her lose face.

They were about to get married, but the mother insisted on breaking them up; she just couldn't stand seeing her happy.

Li Wenjun grew angrier the more he thought about it, and his voice rose a few decibels: "Mom is so biased! From childhood to adulthood, she always puts you first in everything good."

If you get into university, your family will sell everything they own to support you.

I don't like studying, so my mom says I'm useless and will only be able to do manual labor in the future.

My family bought me a job; that's something my parents owe me.

And you, you come back and immediately put on airs like a college student, bossing me around. Let me tell you, I, Li Wenjun, owe you nothing!

"Listen to the nonsense you're spouting!"

What does it mean for your parents to owe you?

Your parents worked so hard to raise you and find you a job, do they still owe you something?

I think you've been bewitched by Pan Wenfang; you've even forgotten your own parents!

"You are a very filial son, so you should just stay with your father."

As for me, I live my own life, and I don't need you acting like a boss and lecturing me!

Listening to his two sons arguing, Li Jianguo lay on the bed and turned his back.

He gazed at the gray sky outside the window, feeling as if something was blocking his heart.

She has two sons, one a researcher in the city and the other a worker in a machine factory.

Logically speaking, their salaries are not low and they can make a decent living, so how did things turn out like this?
