Chapter 411 - 401 Your Only Option Is Death
“It’s all your fault for coming up with such a foolish idea to become the mother of a bastard child. We wouldn’t have ended up like this otherwise. If you like that bastard so much, go be her mother yourself. We don’t know you!”
“We can’t live in the Xia clan anymore. Before, we had servants to serve us, but now, we’re homeless. It’s all your fault, Xia Chenglan!”
“You’re just a wretch that brings bad luck. You don’t deserve to live a good life. If you just married into the Zhang clan as the daughter of the Xia clan, you won’t end up like a beggar on the streets now!”
“Letting a woman like you into the house of the Zhang clan is the worst thing we could have done. Now, we need to spit out the food that has already entered our mouths. Xia Chenglan, if you don’t think of some way to get the Xia clan, the Zhang clan has no place for you.”
Xia Chenglan nearly fainted from anger. Did she owe them something in her past life and have to repay them in this life?
What did the property of the Xia clan have anything to do with them? How could they behave as if they had every right to own everything in the Xia clan?
The most chilling thing for Xia Chenglan was how her own children said that they didn’t know her anymore.
Especially her eldest son.
His eldest son was the reason why she ran away with Zhang Qun and relinquished her status as a daughter of the prestigious Xia clan.
Yet now, he was throwing these ungrateful and heartless words at her.
“Zhang Qun, say something!” Xia Chenglan tugged her husband forcefully.
Zhang Qun wore a sullen expression on his face and didn’t say anything.
Madam Zhangli said in a vicious tone, “Now, we all don’t have a place to sleep anymore. Hurry up and find a place for us. If it wasn’t for you, this wouldn’t have happened to me. Xia Chenglan, all this crap is because of you. We shouldn’t have let a bad luck carrier like you into the family!”
Xia Chenglan was livid. She yelled, “Who is the one who asked me to do this back then? So, all the luxuries and wealth belong to you while any mistake becomes my fault? Who do you think you are? What gives you the right to lay your hands on the Xia clan? I’ll tell you right now. I’ll take back whatever belongs to me in the Xia clan, but you can forget about getting a single cent from me!”
“How dare you?” If Madam Zhangli could pick herself up right now, she would
be beating Xia Chenglan already.
“You’re just a bedridden trash now. If I didn’t get a doctor for you at the Xia clan, do you think you could still speak to me right now? Old hag, I’ve been putting up with your crap for a long time. I’ll tell you right now. Even if I leave the Xia clan, I have my own money. I don’t care about any of you even if you starve to death.”
Xia Chenglan turned and walked away after saying that.
“Stop her!” Madam Zhangli said frantically.
Her second and third sons immediately charged forward and grabbed Xia Chenglan. They ignored the fact that Xia Chenglan was still their sister-in-law and tried to do a body search on her.
Zhang Qun went forward and shoved his two brothers away. He shouted, “Enough! What are you trying to do? I’m still alive. Are you trying to ruin your sister-in-law’s life? I’m telling you, as long as I’m here, I won’t let you bully her!”
“I am your mother! Look at how she’s speaking to me?”
“Mom, how can you blame Chenglan for everything? She wanted the Zhang clan to have a better life, but what do you want her to do when Zhao Chuchu doesn’t want to reason with her at all? Since all of you think she’s the one who made your lives worse, why don’t we split the clan right now? In the future, we’ll go our separate ways and do our own things, so we don’t have to bother each other anymore!”
“I’m not dead yet, and you already want to split up the clan? You ungrateful prick!”
“Brother, how could you say that?”
“Did this evil woman seduce and charm you to the point that you don’t even want your mother anymore?”
Slap!
Zhang Qun swung his arm and gave him a full-force slap.
The third son of the Zhang clan was befuddled.
Xia Chenglan was stunned as well.
“I’ll repeat one more time. Split up the clan!”
Madam Zhangli immediately started wailing, “Why is my life so miserable? I raised my son and took care of him since young, yet he’s abandoning his own mother for a woman! God, please open your eyes and look at this world. A son is abandoning his mother…”
Zhang Qun took a deep breath and said, “Mom, you can follow me if you want to.”
“Are you serious?” Madam Zhangli immediately stopped crying.
The second and third sons of the Zhang clan started calculating in their minds
when they heard that.
Xia Chenglan clearly had no chance of getting the Xia clan’s inheritance while their mother was in such a state. No one knew how much money was needed for Madam Zhangli’s treatment. If they didn’t split up the clan, they would need to pay more!
But if they split up the clan, this would be Zhang Qun and Xie Chenglan’s problem. They only needed to care about their own lives.
If Xia Chenglan somehow managed to get anything from the Xia clan in the future, they could just come back to her again. As long as their mother wasn’t dead, there were many ways for them to leech off Xia Chenglan and Zhang Qun.
