Aunt Chen Qian still refused to accept the money. I pretended to be angry and said, "If you don't take it, then you don't consider me family."
"No, it's not that. I just feel like I've already helped you a lot, and I can't take your money anymore," she replied, looking a bit troubled.
I insisted that she take the money. "Aunt, if you only see me as family, then please don't be polite."
Finally, Aunt Chen Qian relented. "Alright then, I'll keep the money for now. You can use it whenever you need."
"Aunt, I'm a bit curious. Where did you get so much money from in the first place?" I asked with curiosity.
"Where else? It came from my ex-husband," she said nonchalantly.
It turned out that Chen Qian's ex-husband had been making excuses to avoid paying child support for her and her son. At first, he paid three thousand, then two thousand, and it kept decreasing month by month until he stopped paying altogether.
Chen Qian even sat at her ex-husband's workplace, asking his colleagues to tell him that if he didn't give her money, she would die right there at his office entrance. Sure enough, this tactic worked; her ex-husband obediently handed over the money.
After several months of owing her, he finally paid a total of one hundred thousand.
Hearing this made me appreciate Chen Qian's kindness even more. "Aunt, thank you."
"What are you saying? Am I not your family?" she replied.
"Come on, let's eat."
Later on, Ning Ning and I started a company together, and now we have over a hundred employees.
Mother knew that I had money and wanted to contact me, but she found out that I had already blocked her. She could only ask relatives to pass on the message that she missed me and wanted to see me.
I received a call from Aunt, who informed me that there had been changes at home. Liu Xuan had become addicted to gambling during college. Starting with his living expenses, he lost more and more, eventually borrowing from loan sharks when he was desperate. When our parents found out, they locked Liu Xuan in the house, not allowing him to go out.
Taking advantage of their absence, Liu Xuan secretly took ten thousand yuan from our mother's bank card, only to lose it all in one go. When our parents discovered this, Liu Xuan's gambling problem was exposed. My father was furious and physically punished Liu Xuan, who defiantly retorted.
"What’s wrong with gambling? You work so hard for money, isn’t it all for me? What’s wrong with spending a little?"
"I work hard for my money and can’t bear to spend it on myself or even on your sister. It’s all for you to grow up and marry a wife, and look what you’ve done—lost it all gambling!" My father was seething with anger.
Liu Xuan scoffed, "Pfft! My sister is a money pit; after being raised for so long, it’s time she gave back to the family and honored you."
Slap—
My father struck Liu Xuan again. "She is your sister! How can you speak like that? Get down on your knees!"
Liu Xuan stubbornly knelt, refusing to back down. Afterward, our parents confined Liu Xuan at home again, preventing him from going out. Instead, he became even more reckless. While our parents were away, he stole things and sold them to gamble all night long—sometimes for three days straight.
His debts soared over three hundred thousand yuan. With no other options left, our parents had to sell the house and car to gather enough money to pay off the creditors. Now the whole family could only live in a small rented room.
Hearing this made me smile. Truly, evil begets evil.
When Liu Xuan came to my house as a child, he loved to rummage through my things. If he saw something he liked that he didn't have, he would throw it on the ground and stomp on it repeatedly until it shattered.
