CHAPTER 1580: CHAPTER 1581: THE GIRL WITH THREE FAILURES 88

Mr. Jiang never expected his own daughter to respond to him like that, and was truly stunned.

If it weren’t for being at the funeral, if it weren’t for fighting over the old man’s inheritance, and worrying about making a mistake that the other brothers and sisters might catch, he would’ve said, "Everyone’s dead already, why think so much? The most important thing now is to fight for money."

He couldn’t say that, so Mr. Jiang shot a glance at Jiang Mother, who immediately understood and walked over to Jiang Lili, "Good girl, I know you’re sad, but the old man has already passed away."

"So you’re all causing trouble in front of Grandpa’s altar. You know Grandpa didn’t want to see us fighting, yet you do it anyway."

"Why don’t you all think about how sad Grandpa will be when he sees this from the heavens?" Jiang Lili said angrily.

Jiang Mother looked incredulously at Jiang Lili, not understanding how she could have changed so much. She couldn’t help but nod her head, "Have you drunk too much and gone stupid?"

"You’re so dutiful, but just think, if you don’t fight for it, it’ll end up in your uncle’s hands." Jiang Mother thought about what the old man had and felt her heart breaking.

She didn’t believe the eldest son’s family would be so dutiful as to take care of the old man; they’re absolutely after the old man’s property.

"Why should I make a fuss, only to have it end up in your hands." No matter how Jiang Mother fussed, Jiang Lili wouldn’t budge and, when pressed, would just throw out this line.

Jiang Mother knew her daughter was angry, and she was angry too, "The things given by the old man come through our hands before going to you."

The people around were all hoping Jiang Lili would step up; they wanted more of the old man’s stuff but didn’t want to confront the Eldest Son of Jiang’s family, knowing they might need their help in the future.

Originally, they thought Jiang Mother could soothe Jiang Lili, but seeing that she couldn’t, they had to step forward and persuade her, "You are the only daughter your parents have..."

"My dad’s woman outside already has a child, about to be born, a son. I’ve fought for so long, and in the end, I don’t know for whom." Jiang Lili recalled an anonymous message she had just received. She didn’t believe it, but still wanted to try it out.

Mr. Jiang was stunned, knowing he had hidden the affair well, not even letting his wife know. As for Jiang Lili, he never took her seriously, just a fool who only knew how to eat, drink, and have fun.

Who would’ve thought, in the end, that this fool who only knew how to eat, drink, and have fun would expose the matter? Who could believe it?

Jiang Mother knew Mr. Jiang was recently enamored with a young vixen; she didn’t mind. They had agreed long ago that he could play around, but no lives should be involved.

Previously, they handled things pretty well. Who would’ve thought Mr. Jiang would fall for someone and let them get pregnant, let alone with a boy.

Jiang Mother was panicked. Even if it was a girl, she wouldn’t care; it was just a daughter, after all. She herself had borne a daughter.

But a son was different. On the surface, they showed all kinds of affection for their daughter. Having a daughter was enough. Actually, it was not that they didn’t want a son. It was because Jiang Mother had a difficult labor with Jiang Lili, and when she was ready to have another, the family planning policy was in place, leaving them with no choice but to accept having only one daughter.

Jiang Mother looked at the dumbfounded Mr. Jiang and understood everything her daughter said was true, directly rushing over to tear into him.

Everyone knew the couple each played their own games. In reality, they were doing just that, only it wasn’t exposed because they knew their limits.

Who would’ve thought Mr. Jiang, at his age, would end up with a life involved, and the other party even had a boy.

In the past, they might have been concerned, knowing the old man liked boys. It was only because Jiang Lili resembled the grandmother who passed away early that she wasn’t a marginal figure.

Now that the old man is gone, Mr. Jiang can have as many children as he wants, and they will just sit back and watch.

Everyone temporarily called a truce, just watching the couple tear into each other. It’s not that they didn’t want to intervene, but because even Jiang Lili, their own daughter, didn’t step in to mediate, they certainly wouldn’t.

Mr. Jiang knew Jiang Mother would make a scene, but he didn’t expect it to be at the old man’s funeral, in front of so many siblings, and she really made a scene, and especially ruthlessly.

He was already very displeased with Jiang Mother, but because of the old man’s presence, he had to endure. Now it was fine; he was about to have a son and didn’t need to endure anymore.

"Divorce, we must divorce." Mr. Jiang yelled, "You’re leaving with nothing."

Mr. Jiang wouldn’t give Jiang Mother anything, as he was about to become a father and had to think more for his son, as he was his root.

Daughters go to others’ homes, and as for Jiang Lili, she’s a fool. Mr. Jiang thought, once his son was born, he must educate him well, not let him end up like Jiang Lili.

After learning the woman outside was having a son, Jiang Mother was panicked, largely understanding that the possibility of divorce was high. She knew even if the man wanted a divorce, it wouldn’t be that quick. Who would’ve thought that in front of the father-in-law’s altar, the man would say he wanted a divorce?

Divorce, then divorce; Jiang Mother could accept it, but she didn’t expect it to be so ruthless, wanting her to leave with nothing, "I don’t agree."

"Split the assets in half, or I’ll drag you down. I’m not in a hurry, you are." Jiang Mother suddenly wasn’t in a hurry anymore, "You, a man with a woman outside, want me to leave with nothing? Dream on."

"Don’t you have someone outside too? Don’t think I don’t know. Didn’t you have an abortion in the spring? Don’t think that just because you did it abroad, I wouldn’t know." Mr. Jiang got angry when he remembered what happened during Chinese New Year.

Aaah, everyone was stunned by this news. First, Mr. Jiang had someone outside and was going to become a father, and then Jiang Mother also had someone outside leading to an abortion. The news was just too shocking.

Jiang Lili knew her parents both had someone outside. In the past, she didn’t care because she had the old man as her backing and her parents wouldn’t do anything to her.

Now that Grandpa had just passed away, they treated her so cruelly, discussing the family inheritance so blatantly in front of her, never considering giving her anything.

Jiang Lili recalled the shares and houses Grandpa had secretly transferred to her before. She had thought Grandpa was worried that the uncles would be unhappy knowing that.

Now she realized it was probably because Grandpa worried that the family’s assets might have nothing to do with her. Since everyone was tearing each other apart and never thought of her, why should she get involved?

The only one who considered her was Grandpa, only Grandpa. Dreaming about this, Jiang Lili continued burning paper money for Grandpa, "Grandpa, I will live well."

"And you should take care too, down there." Jiang Lili used to think, after Grandpa passed away and she got his inheritance, she would resign and live freely and wantonly, showing those at China Investment that she could live comfortably even without working.
