Gong Dajiang didn’t take this matter to heart, especially since he noticed that the old lady was recently very concerned about his whereabouts. She would ask all sorts of questions if he stayed out long.
Gong Dajiang was quite annoyed, especially since there were signs that soone had rummaged through his clothes, which made him furious.
Because of this, Gong Dajiang began to sowhat believe the contents of Gong Tao’s letter. As for how Gong Zheng found out about it, wasn’t it obvious? He must have overheard when one day Gong Qiang was planning sothing.
This kid wouldn’t co forward and tell Gong Tao himself, fearing that once he knew, he would be all sorts of furious. Gong Dajiang could only say that this son was quite skilled at scheming against family mbers.
But except for scheming against his siblings, he couldn’t sche against anyone else, which disappointed Gong Dajiang greatly.
Scheming against siblings all day, what’s the point? There’s only so much money at ho; he really didn’t know what he could gain from it.
Gong Qiang had no idea his old man was disappointed in him; lately, he was really worrying himself sick. The children needed money for schooling, and in the past, his mother would offer so support for household expenses.
But ever since the family’s finances were handed over to the old man, his mother’s support had dwindled.
Now it had completely ceased, which enraged Gong Qiang.
"Money, money, money." No matter how Gong Qiang calculated, he could only conclude that the money was endlessly insufficient.
Gong Qiang could only aim his frustration at Dong Li, "When is your family’s debt going to be repaid?"
"You can’t keep making the married daughter shell out money continuously." The more Gong Qiang thought about it, the angrier he beca. He used to not mind because he thought the Yue family treated him well and that he held a high position every ti he visited.
But now he thought, what good was a high position if it didn’t co with money?
Dong Li was numb to it by now, "There’s no money, it’s not like you don’t know my family’s situation."
Not only could they not repay, but they even thought about whether she could provide so aid.
Dong Li always used to say that Cai ina had a troubleso family that kept squeezing money out of her, making her life miserable and preventing her from caring well for Gong Ruwen.
But looking at her situation now, she shouldn’t mock anyone; no one’s life is easy.
"So what if I know your family’s situation? Your son doesn’t like to study, and if the old man is willing to change his mind later, we can save so money." Although the old man had retired, he had many old connections. He might not be able to make soone a leader, but he might arrange a light job in a factory.
But their stupid son recently had ideations about the old man, and his usual attitude wasn’t good either. The more Gong Qiang thought about it, the more distressed he beca.
"Could the old man not change his mind?" Dong Li always felt the old man was quite angry, which was why he reacted so much, but the eldest grandson was soone the old man valued.
"No matter how much trouble Gong Tao’s family stirs up, can their status surpass our son’s?" Dong Li couldn’t guarantee how Gong Dajiang viewed their family, but she was sure Zhang Lan liked Gong Xiaoyu, and that was enough.
After marrying into the Gong Family for so many years, she was not unaware of Gong Dajiang’s attitude towards Zhang Lan.
With the importance of the eldest son and grandson, Gong Qiang used to believe in this very much. But now looking back, when did his old man ever truly believe in this?
Even as the eldest son, his old man only paid him a bit more attention, mostly because his own mother kept speaking for him.
Without his own mother’s efforts, Gong Qiang didn’t think he could compete with Gong Tao.
Now, when it ca to his children, Gong Qiang knew his ability was not as good as Gong Tao’s, but he couldn’t believe his children weren’t better than Gong Tao’s.
To this day, Gong Qiang didn’t find Gong Tao’s children particularly impressive. But could children who kept the old man’s attention really be as useless as his own mother said?
"Do you truly think I’m less capable than that wastrel Gong Tao?" The more Gong Qiang thought, the angrier he beca.
Although the old man never voiced any opinion about Gong Tao almost entering the factory office, it was precisely his silence that made Gong Qiang aware of the old man’s disappointnt in him.
This question left Dong Li at a loss for words; she really didn’t know where Gong Qiang found the courage to think he was more capable than Gong Tao.
In every respect, Gong Tao would always lead a down-to-earth life, no matter what setbacks he faced.
"Think about when Gong Tao went to the Northeast; didn’t he manage to get back on his feet and live his life?" Although she didn’t know how life was for Gong Tao there, even if Gong Dajiang and his wife said Gong Tao was living a hard life,
Dong Li didn’t believe Gong Tao’s life was really that hard; he must have been concealing a bit.
Gong Tao faced hardships many tis greater than Gong Qiang, but when Gong Qiang faced setbacks, all he did was complain; he never considered standing up as the head of the family.
Dong Li didn’t expect Gong Qiang to have Gong Tao’s abilities, but she hoped he could have even half of them. The problem was, he hadn’t even achieved that wish.
Gong Qiang could hear Dong Li’s dissatisfaction in her words.
So words were true, but as his wife, how could she be so full of complaints when it ca to him? How could Gong Qiang tolerate such things? He kicked her.
Dong Li never expected Gong Qiang to hit her; she was dumbfounded.
By the ti she ca to her senses, she was already lying on the ground. "What’s wrong with you?"
"You actually kicked ." Dong Li was furious; a man who couldn’t accomplish anything and didn’t reflect on himself, yet thought of hitting his wife? She couldn’t comprehend how he had the audacity.
"Why couldn’t I kick you?" Gong Qiang was already engulfed in anger. Seeing Dong Li dare to retort, he couldn’t control himself and treated her without courtesy.
If Dong Li hadn’t muttered further, Gong Qiang might have stopped sooner, but whether it was because of her inner bitterness, she kept accusing Gong Qiang of incompetence.
As a man, how could Gong Qiang swallow his anger? His strength grew stronger.
Gong Xiaoyu heard the commotion at ho, quietly checked it out, and found Gong Qiang beating Dong Li. He promptly fled; there was no way he would co out now, lest he get hit by Gong Qiang.
Busy beating her, Gong Qiang didn’t see Gong Xiaoyu, but Dong Li saw him clearly.
Dong Li quickly ca to regret it and begged for rcy, but Gong Qiang continued, and when she thought Gong Xiaoyu would intervene, he just left.
Though she knew her son was indifferent and would not help without enough benefit, to see him truly ignore her broke Dong Li’s heart.
A man who was a failure, a son like this, and a family that expected her to save them—Dong Li was utterly devastated.
"Let tell you, Dong Li, get your family to repay the money, or don’t bla for being ruthless." After a good beating, Gong Qiang found this venting thod great.
"If your family doesn’t repay, I’ll keep beating you until they do." Gong Qiang pointed at Dong Li, indicating he wouldn’t let the Dong family off.
