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

But that was the hard-earned money that the elderly couple had saved up for most of their lives, and to give it all away to this divorced "outsider" like that, she really couldn't swallow this insult.

Xia Hongjuan jumped up and tried to scratch Zhang Wenying again.

"I don't care, I just want your money!"

Li Wenjun stood to the side, watching all of this with a cold eye.

It would be good if someone stepped forward and taught his mother a lesson.

My mother has really been acting out of line these past few days.

Zhang Wenying shoved Xia Hongjuan aside and slapped Li Wenjun across the face.

With a sharp "snap," the entire courtyard fell silent. Xia Hongjuan stood frozen in place, while Li Wenjun covered his face, a look of astonishment and humiliation flashing in his eyes.

"Mom, why did you hit me!"

Zhang Wenying started cursing at the top of her lungs.

"I'm going to beat you up, you spineless coward!"

You're a grown man, and you just stand by and watch an old shrew bully me, without daring to utter a single word!

What, you think my existence is getting in your way?

I haven't even relied on you to support me yet, and you already think I'm in your way?

"You unfilial bastard, did you conspire with this old shrew to anger me to death so you could seize my house and money?"

Li Wenjun was so angry that his face turned pale and his lips trembled, unable to speak.

He's innocent!

When did he ever think about wanting his mother to die?

He just wanted his mother to calm down!

Taking advantage of the opportunity, Zhang Wenying stepped forward, bent down and stared at Xia Hongjuan on the ground: "Either come with me to the police station now, or you should leave quickly and not block my door."

Let me tell you, I, Zhang Wenying, am not someone to be bullied. If you dare to stay here today, I'll call the police to come and take you away. Think carefully about who will be the one who loses face then.

Looking at Zhang Wenying's cold eyes, Xia Hongjuan felt inexplicably panicked. She had come here to cause trouble and extort money. If things really escalated to the police station, she would definitely be the one who suffered.

After hesitating for a long time, she gritted her teeth, got up from the ground, dusted herself off, and said fiercely, "I'll let you off the hook today, but if you don't give me back the money, I'll be back tomorrow!"

After saying that, he slunk away.

The onlookers, seeing that there was no more excitement, dispersed.

Zhang Wenying watched Xia Hongjuan's retreating figure, then launched into a tirade against Li Wenjun.

"A beastly thing."

Do you think you can live forever?

Do you think all your children will be obedient and filial in the future?

In twenty or thirty years, when your in-laws point their fingers at you and berate you in front of the neighbors, you'll know how your mother feels today!

You'll be crying your eyes out then!

What a spineless coward!

He couldn't resist seeing that woman, and he also spoiled her family.

I'd rather raise a piece of barbecued pork than you.

He's a man, but his temperament is like a dough ball; whatever that vixen says goes.

"Thank goodness the Qing Dynasty collapsed, otherwise, I would definitely send you to the palace to serve those concubines!"

Li Wenjun was so humiliated by her scolding that he could only respond in a low voice, "Mom, please calm down, I know I was wrong."

Zhang Wenying snorted coldly, turned around and went into the house, slamming the door shut with a loud bang.

Li Wenjun stood in the courtyard, his face burning with pain, but his heart ached even more.

Damn it, when did your tongue become so sharp?

Although his mother used to nag, she never said anything so harsh or hurtful in front of so many people like she did today.

Seeing that her mother had been wronged, Pan Wenfang, who was hiding behind the tree, rushed out from behind the tree with a dark face.

"Li Lao Er, are you really not going to be friends with me anymore?"

Your mother insulted my mother like that, and you didn't dare utter a sound. What kind of man are you?!

Li Wenjun was already in a bad mood, and when she provoked him like this, he slapped Pan Wenfang across the face.

"You fucking have the nerve to say that! If your mother hadn't come and caused trouble, would this have happened?"

Pan Wenfang covered her face, tears streaming down her face, and shouted in a shrill voice, "You hit me? How dare you hit me? I'll fight you to the death!"

As he spoke, he lunged forward to grab Li Wenjun's face.

Li Wenjun dodged to the side, grabbed her wrist, and shoved her aside. Pan Wenfang staggered a few steps, fell to the ground, and burst into tears, wailing, "You, Li Wenjun! I haven't even entered the house yet and you've already hit me! How could I dare marry someone like you? I can't live like this anymore!"

Zhang Wenying popped her head out and shouted at Li Wenjun, "Good job! This kind of woman deserves to be taught a lesson!"

Second brother, well done!

I knew my sons, Zhang Wenying's sons, were no cowards!

A man should be this indomitable and valiant.

You're a grown man, you should act like one. You can't let those two, mother and daughter, ride roughshod over you.

If she really doesn't want to continue the relationship, then don't. You two aren't even legally married.

At worst, your dad can find you someone even better!

A man can only control the world if he controls women.

You're much more successful than your older brother.

Li Wenjun felt heartbroken and guilty for hitting Pan Wenfang.

But after hearing his mother's words, he immediately straightened his back.

Yes, a man should act like a man and not always be led by the nose by a woman.

No matter how hard Pan Wenfang cries, she's still just a woman. As long as I stand up for myself, what can she do to me?

He glanced coldly at Pan Wenfang on the ground, then turned and walked into the house, saying, "If you've cried enough, go back home. Don't embarrass yourself here."

Pan Wenfang's crying stopped abruptly. She stared incredulously at Li Wenjun's back, her lips trembling, but she couldn't utter a single word.

She never imagined that the man who was so obedient to her yesterday would become so heartless today.

Okay, very good.

Li Wenjun, since you're so heartless, don't blame me for turning my back on you.

Pan Wenfang got up from the ground, dusted herself off, and a fierce glint flashed in her eyes.

Li Wenbing quietly returned home, glanced at the cold stove and ice-cold pots, and felt a chill run down his spine.

He sighed, sat on the threshold, his mind a jumbled mess.

It seems Mom is determined to abandon them.

My sister-in-law and brother-in-law didn't come to the house today either.

While Li Wenjun's side was in complete chaos, he didn't even have anyone to talk to on his side.

He glanced towards the top of the wall.

His mother was busy in the kitchen, the spatula hitting the iron pot with a crisp sound, and the aroma of food wafted over, making him feel like crying.

He thought about going to his mother, but these past few days his mother has been acting like she's on fire, always yelling and cursing.

Xia Wenbing could only go hungry and boil a pot of water in the kitchen.

When Li Jianguo returned with a dark expression, the three of them managed to eat a cold meal together.

No one spoke at the table, only the sound of chopsticks clinking against bowls. Li Jianguo took a couple of mouthfuls of rice, then suddenly slammed his bowl down on the table.

"Second brother, starting tomorrow, you'll cook, and third brother will wash the dishes."
