Chapter 229: The Old Madam Is Being Unreasonable
Early the next morning, a series of urgent knocks on the door interrupted everyone’s sleep in the house.
“Everyone, come and take a look. It’s this family. They’re living a good life in the county town and have abandoned their mother in the countryside.”
The surrounding neighbors were also woken up. It turned out that Old Madam Yun was sitting at the door of Yun Shan’s new home and throwing a tantrum. Behind her were Yun Gang and Liu Fang.
As such, a group of people completely surrounded the courtyard walls of Yun Xi’s house this morning. They all wanted to see what kind of commotion was going on.
Hearing the noise coming from outside, Yun Shan could not help but frown. Were those people going to tear down his house?!!!
Yun Shan got out of bed, put on a coat, and went to open the door. After all, he could not keep the motley crowd clamoring at the door.
“Mom?”
When Yun Shan opened the door, he saw Old Madam Yun sitting on the ground, muttering something.
Yun Gang and Liu Fang, who were standing at the side, had gloomy faces.
“Yo, Third Younger Brother, you’re dressed so early in the morning. Are you ready to go out and ignore our mother?!”
Yun Gang snorted coldly and looked at Yun Shan with a gloomy look.
When Old Madam Yun saw her son, Yun Shan, she suddenly seemed to have gone mad and cried even harder.
“Mom, what’s wrong? If there’s anything, just say it. Don’t sit on the ground. It’s so cold on the ground!”
Yun Shan quickly went forward and helped Old Madam Yun up.
Old Madam Yun directly slapped Yun Shan’s hand away and continued to sit on the ground and make a scene.
“I don’t have a son like you. My fellow villagers, please come and hear me out. Ever since my youngest son became rich, he has been living in the county town by himself. He has never returned home to see his old mother. How unfilial!”
“Mom, if you want to move in here, you can say so at any time. You don’t have to cry and make a scene here. Your body won’t be able to take it.”
Faced with Old Madam Yun, who had always been biased toward Yun Gang’s family, Yun Shan was helpless.
Although he hated the old madam’s way of doing things, after all, she was his mother. He had no way to resolve the relationship between them.
“It’s fine that he didn’t bring me to the county to enjoy life, but this unfilial son is enjoying himself in the city. The monthly pension that he gives me is also not sent to me on time. It has been in arrears for several months. My partner and I can’t live any longer.”
Old Madam Yun was listing Yun Shan’s “evil deeds” one by one in front of the door.
“Mom, what are you saying? I didn’t miss a single cent for your monthly pension. I brought them home on time to give them to you,” Yun Shan anxiously explained.
The rest of the family had also put on their clothes and arrived at the door, watching the farce in front of them.
“Grandma, I know that you’ve always been biased toward Big Uncle’s family, but it doesn’t matter because that’s your right. However, you can’t spread rumors just like that!”
“Hey, how can a little girl like you speak when the adults are talking? Did you say that I’m spreading rumors? She has lived a much longer life than you!”
Yun Gang thought about how he had to work as a toilet cleaner now and responded to Yun Xi with a poor attitude.
“Grandma, you said that Dad doesn’t give you any pension every month. Do you have any evidence?”
Yun Xi ignored Yun Gang.
“Ah, I don’t know. Why are you so aggressive toward an old lady like me?”
Of course, Yun Shan had given her money. This whole thing was just the act of Yun Gang’s family instigating the old madam to come here and cause trouble.
“Then what evidence do you have to prove that Yun Shan has given her pension?” Liu Fang had learned her lesson this time and knew to use a rhetorical tone.
“Big Aunt, I knew from the beginning that there might be disputes over money in the future, so every time my Dad goes to give Grandma her pension, I always let him take it to her house and give it to her in front of her and Grandpa. Why don’t we ask Grandpa then?”
Yun Xi had guessed how rascally the two other families were, so she had instructed Yun Shan to give the money in front of the old master as a precaution.
