If their elder brother and sister-in-law didn’t need An Yang anymore, it would be equivalent to cutting off their source of income. This was simply taking their lives.
Moreover, Father An said that he wouldn’t pay for their living expenses anymore.
How could this be?
Without them paying, what would An Yang for his marriage? He needed at least a hundred thousand RMB.
Although An Yang’s parents had some money in their hands, they could not bear to take it out. They were saving it for old age. They wanted An Yang to get married and they wanted to have grandchildren. They needed the money from their big brother and big sister-in-law.
After second uncle An recovered from his shock, his expression became a little stiff. He tugged at his lips and asked in disbelief, “Big brother, did you say something wrong? You don’t need An Yang anymore? Even if you’re not willing to fork out money to help An Yang marry a wife, don’t use this excuse!”
Second uncle an did not believe the words of his eldest brother and sister-in-law at all. He was more inclined to believe that his eldest brother and sister-in-law were not willing to fork out money for An Yang’s marriage.
As if he had thought this through, second uncle An took a deep breath and said, “Eldest brother and sister-in-law, if you think that a million is too much, then how about this? Just give me 800,000. No, 600,000 will do. We have to get An Yang married first, right?”
When the security guard heard such shameless words, he was stunned.
What kind of logic was this? His own son was marrying a wife, and he wanted his elder brother and sister-in-law to pay for it?
The security guard really wanted to laugh, but after looking around, he did not dare to laugh out loud. He could only hold it in.
Xiao Wang did not beat around the bush with them. He said with a serious expression, “Are you guys stupid? Uncle and aunt have made it very clear that they do not need your son, An Yang, to continue the family line. Naturally, they will no longer be responsible for everything that happens to An Yang. They will also no longer pay for An Yang’s marriage.”
An Yang had not made a sound previously because his parents were the ones talking.
……
Now that he heard Xiao Wang and looked at Xiao Wang’s appearance, the bad premonition in his heart grew even stronger. His face immediately darkened and he could not help but blurt out, “Who are you? What does our family’s business have to do with you? My aunt and uncle don’t need me anymore? Why?”
Xiao Wang didn’t get angry. He said with a silly smile, “Uncle and aunt don’t need you anymore because in the future, my son will take care of them!”
“What did you say?” Three voices sounded in disbelief, and their eyes widened. “How is this possible?”
“Why is it impossible?” Xiao Wang looked at them with a trace of contempt, “I’m married to Xiaohui. Our son’s surname will be an An, so he’s naturally uncle and aunt’s biological grandson. He can look after auntie and uncle.”
Hearing Xiao Wang’s words, second uncle An immediately understood the meaning behind his words. Immediately, his shocked expression turned into disdain and contempt. He looked at father An and said with a sneer, “Big Brother, so you have found a live-in son-in-law for that girl? No wonder you are full of disdain for us. Big Brother, sister-in-law, aren’t you afraid that when you return to the village, you will be criticized, ridiculed, and looked down upon by others?”
This was how their village was.
Those who got live-in son-in-law would be heavily ridiculed.
Father An was not angry and appeared unusually calm.
He looked at second uncle An and said, “Second brother, I’m afraid you’ve misunderstood. We have not gotten a live-in son-in-law but we have married Hui ‘Er off. It’s just that her partner is very magnanimous and is willing to give their first boy the surname An.”
“What?” Second uncle an obviously didn’t quite believe it. He said loudly, “Impossible? How could An Xiaohui have such good luck to meet such a good man?”
To rural people, a daughter was a wastrel. The children would take the father’s surname. No man would have their children follow the mother’s surname unless he was a live-in son-in-law.
Mother An sneered and said, “Why not? Our Xiaohui is so lucky to have met such a good man. Isn’t he standing here?”
Second uncle An didn’t believe their words at all and said, “This is just all talk. There’s no proof…”
“Okay!” Before second uncle an could finish his words, Xiao Wang cut him off. He turned to father and mother An and said, “Father, mother, I’ll marry Xiaohui in your hometown and announce everyone that our first son will have the surname An. I want everyone to see that Xiaohui has married a good man!”
Father and mother An were immediately moved to wipe away their tears and said, “Good, good!”
They finally did not have to worry anymore.
After second uncle An and his family heard Xiao Wang’s words, their faces were once again filled with shock. They felt that it was unbelievable.
There was really such a magnanimous man.
Father An said, “Second brother, second sister-in-law, in a few days, it will be my daughter and son-in-law’s big wedding day. On that day, you must attend!”
Second uncle An and his family’s faces instantly turned ashen.
However, how could second uncle An and his family be willing to let go off their ATM machines?
Especially An Yang.
Since he was young, everything he ate, wore, and used was given to him by his first uncle and first aunt. Moreover, he had been instilled with the idea that his first uncle and first aunt’s property would belong to him in the future.
His aunt and uncle did not have much money in the past, but the two of them had bought a house in their county town. Also, ever since An Xiaohui joined the workforce, she would send some money back from time to time. The minimum amount was a thousand, and the maximum amount was five or six thousand. All of this money would be put into his pocket.
However, he was very clear that the reason why his aunt and uncle were so good to him was because they needed him to continue their family line.
But what if they didn’t need him to do that anymore? Then he would lose everything. The house, the money…
At the thought of this, An Yang felt a wave of panic in his heart. He said loudly, “Uncle, aunt, do you really trust an outsider like this? What if he reneges on his promise in the future? Or what if they can’t give birth to a son in the future?”
“An Yang!” mother An shouted loudly, “You’re the one who won’t be able to give birth to a son!” His last sentence completely infuriated mother An.
“My son-in-law is so strong, and his family has given birth to several sons for three generations. He and Xiaohui will definitely be able to give birth to several sons,” mother An said angrily, “On the other hand, the An Family only has one son for this generation. If anyone cannot have sons, it’s you!”
Since she no longer needed anything from An Yang, mother An naturally did not have much scruples when she spoke.
Since they had cursed her daughter, she would curse them back.
“Liu Guifang, you vicious woman, how dare you curse our son?” Second Aunt An was also furious and was about to pounce on mother An to tear her mouth apart.
Xiao Wang flung her away and said with a dark face, “If you can curse my daughter, why can’t I curse your son?”
Second uncle An pointed angrily at father An and said, “Big brother, how are you going to face our ancestors cursing An Yang like this?”
Father An’s face was also livid. He coldly said, “It was you who cursed Xiaohui first.”
An Yang said, “But Xiaohui is an outsider. I’m the son of An Family!”
Father An said, “Xiaohui is my daughter and her son will have the surname An too!”
An Yang, “…” An Yang was annoyed and pissed.
