Prying ng Xingwang’s hands off, ng Xingsheng resolutely left.
However, once he stepped out of the courtyard gate, he suddenly beca confused, not knowing where to go or what to do.
The main hall.
"Mom, are we really letting Second Brother leave ho just like that?"
Once back in the main hall, ng Xingwang asked his mother.
"He’s a good-for-nothing. He won’t get far."
Wang Guilan didn’t believe that ng Xingsheng had the guts to never return ho.
"Third Brother, you say sothing!"
ng Xingwang looked to his younger brother, ng Xingping.
"What do you want to say, Big Brother?"
ng Xingping looked indifferently at ng Xingwang: "ng Xingsheng won’t listen to reason; he insists on marrying a flirtatious woman into our house. And the Cui Family demanded a dowry of two hundred yuan just like that. Are you going to fork out that money, or do I have it on ?"
"Mom! Mom... Second Brother stood at the courtyard entrance for a while, and now he seems to be heading towards the mountain."
Suddenly, ng Xingguo ran into the main hall. After watching ng Xingsheng leave the courtyard, he had hid and observed for a while. Seeing his Second Brother start walking towards the back mountain, he rushed in to inform his mother.
Behind their ho, the back mountain was filled with lush forests, where, as the old folks in the village said, wild boars were often spotted.
Wang Guilan: "Leave him be!"
ng Xingguo, with a worried expression: "But... what if Second Brother runs into a wild boar?"
"Then that’s his fate!"
Although she said this, Wang Guilan still showed a trace of concern. With a stern face, she remained silent for a good while before telling ng Xingwang and ng Xingping, "Bring that worrywart back ho for . If he dares not to co with you, knock him unconscious for and drag him back, even if you have to."
No matter how foolish a son was, he was still flesh and blood of her own. She might not be fond of him, but that didn’t an she was willing to watch that worrywart go into the mountains to beco a al for wild boars.
However, just as Wang Guilan’s heart softened, she never expected that after sending ng Xingwang and ng Xingping out to bring ng Xingsheng back ho, they returned in less than a quarter of an hour, both extrely agitated.
"Where is he?"
Not seeing ng Xingsheng, Wang Guilan couldn’t help but ask.
ng Xingguo looked outside the main hall door, equally puzzled: "Yeah, Big Brother, Third Brother, why didn’t we see Second Brother co back with you?" Sixth Child, who was still young, along with Lao Wu, had a look of confusion on their faces as they watched ng Xingwang and the others.
"Second Brother didn’t go to the mountain; he’s at Shuicao’s place. When Third Brother and I called him to co ho, Second Brother said he was going to be a live-in son-in-law for the Cui Family!"
ng Xingwang replied to Wang Guilan with a flushed face, truly infuriated. For the sake of a woman, to disregard the face of his brothers and shalessly beco a live-in son-in-law, what was going through his mind—did he get kicked by a donkey?
"Those two old gits of the Cui Family actually let Second Brother enter their ho?"
Wang Guilan clenched her teeth in anger.
ng Xingwang: "Second Brother is insisting on staying at their place."
Wang Guilan: "Fourth Brother, go and call the Team Leader and the Secretary to our house. Today I’m really going to cut ties with that worrywart. From now on, we’ll act as if he never existed in our family.
Hurry up and call the Team Leader and the Secretary here to witness it. And call over that heartless thing and Shuicao’s parents as well. We’ll have it out face to face and speak clearly, making a written record as proof!"
"Mom, are you really going to do this?"
ng Xingguo stood still, not moving.
"That heartless thing doesn’t want our family anymore and doesn’t acknowledge as his mother. Why should I keep him in our family register?
Hurry up. Today we will sever all relations clearly, and then Big Brother and Third Brother will take the family register to the town."
