Chapter 652: Once you send someone away, they won’t come back (6)
"Since we are dividing the family, mother will have to give something to us brothers, right?" Mr. Liang had a gloomy face, revealing a bit of unwillingness. He stared at his stepmother who was sitting upright in front of him, trying to catch a sign of relaxation from her calm face.
However, this old lady Liang remained as steady as a rock, and seemed to care nothing about his request.
She then picked up the teacup beside her and took a sip before speaking expressionlessly, "Our property has been confiscated. Where does the Liang family have any money?"
Her casual words made the second master Liang's expression tense: "Now the expenses of this family are all supported by my mother's dowry. I really can't give you anything valuable."
Hearing this, Mr. Liang San, who had been silent all this time, could no longer suppress the anger in his heart.
His face turned pale in an instant, veins popped out on his forehead, and his hands unconsciously clenched into fists.
Back then, although the business he and Liang Er had initially used the Liang family's funds as capital, they had worked hard over the years to accumulate the current family business.
But now, this stepmother Ping tried to take away 40% of it easily with just a few words!
This is simply too much!
"It's okay if you don't want to give it to me. Don't worry. After all, we are mother and son. I will naturally not report you to the government." Mrs. Liang suddenly changed the subject, put on a amiable smile, and her tone became gentle.
But this sudden change did not make Mr. Liang Er and Mr. Liang San feel relieved at all. Instead, it made them feel that the woman in front of them was even more scheming.
"Moreover..." Madam Liang stretched out her tone and continued slowly, "You can still continue to live in this house. After all, no matter what, I am still your stepmother..."
"We'll give it to you!" Before Madam Liang could finish her words, Mr. Liang finally lost his patience and shouted out these words through gritted teeth.
He knew very well that if he continued to entangle with his stepmother, the loss of money would be a small matter, but it would be troublesome if she did something weird.
Liang Er knew something about his stepmother's temper.
"Second brother!" Liang San was still not convinced.
"She is the legitimate mother and we are illegitimate children. This alone is enough for her to control us." Liang Er whispered softly in Liang San's ear, "It is never too late for a gentleman to take revenge. When someone in our family has achieved fame, we will naturally not be afraid of her anymore."
After hearing what Mr. Liang said, although Mr. Liang San was unwilling, he could only suppress his anger.
Seeing this, Madam Liang nodded with satisfaction: "This is a good child who knows the big picture."
Then she called the housekeeper and asked him to bring the documents and contracts that had been prepared long ago.
A few days later, after the Second Master Liang and the Third Master Liang handed over their properties to the eldest master of the Liang Mansion, they left the Liang mansion with their families.
They only took away the servants from their two rooms from the mansion.
Madam Liang Er said to her husband, Master Liang Er, dissatisfiedly: "The old lady clearly did this on purpose. She is calculating. Even though most of the servants have been sold, she came to us to ask for a division.
She got a few servants from her and helped her to build up her reputation as a loving mother. What a pious old woman she is!"
"Okay, it's already like this, it's a good thing that she can come out." Liang Er also looked back at the house, "How long can she live? When she's gone, I will find a way to take back what belongs to us."
"Okay!" Since she heard her husband say so, Mrs. Liang Er stopped complaining.
Mr. Liang San had always followed the lead of Mr. Liang Er. When he heard that the other party had already made up his mind, he didn't say anything.
Wait until these people leave the house.
Old Madam Liang collapsed like a leaking hole. She could hardly even sit still at this moment, and the blood that she had been holding back for a long time spurted out.
"Mother!" Seeing this, the old man of the Liang family hurried over to support Old Madam Liang, "What happened to you?"
Madam Liang waved her hands and said weakly, "It's okay. It's an old illness. I've been using medicine to hold on for a while. Now that everyone has been cleared, there are some backlashes."
It turned out that her old illness had already relapsed and she knew that she didn't have much time left.
Recently, Madam Liang has been acting out of character and doing all these things because she is worried that after her death, her two illegitimate sons will fight over the family property and cause chaos in the Liang family.
The eldest master of the Liang family felt distressed: "Mother, why do you have to work so hard? Your son will protect the Liang family."
Madam Liang smiled bitterly and said, "You are kind-hearted by nature, and you are no match for them at all."
"But mother..." It seemed that only now did the Liang family's uncle understand why Old Madam Liang had been so cruel during this period.
When he was young, although he was quite capable, he still retained some enthusiasm. Why would he be stabbed in the back like he is now?
"What do you know?" Madam Liang was a little disappointed that her son was too soft-hearted. "Extraordinary times call for extraordinary measures. If you don't deal with these things quickly, will you be able to be so cruel as to do these things after I'm gone?"
"Mother!" Master Liang felt somewhat embarrassed to be scolded like this at his old age.
