Instead, it was the couple next to them.
Xu Yueyun only now turned her gaze to Jiang Yinzhu and Bai Mei.
Su Bingcheng looked at his wife nervously, afraid she might have an episode.
But Xu Yueyun was very calm.
She didn't feel any discomfort. After receiving acupuncture from Lin Zhilan for two days, she felt the stagnant air blocking her chest suddenly clear, and even her mind was much clearer.
Jiang Yinzhu supported himself against the wall and climbed up from the ground, a fawning smile on his face. "Dad, Mom."
Xu Yueyun raised her hand. "Don't call me Mom. You don't deserve it."
She turned to Su Bingcheng. "Go back to the house and call Jiang Jinzhu over. Let's make things clear today, don't delay the children's matters."
Although Linlin was mumbling, she also mentioned that Su Lang had hit Jiang Yinzhu.
She also mentioned the word "police."
Xu Yueyun was also from a military background, and she thought the same as Jiang Chengzhou: they couldn't let the Jiang family's matters affect Su Lang's future.
Su Bingcheng instructed his son, "Xiao Lang, I'll go make the call. Keep an eye on your mom."
Su Lang nodded. "Mom, let's go inside too. It's cold out here."
Xu Yueyun had rushed out earlier, wearing only a coat over her shoulders, and her hands were pale from the cold.
Xu Yueyun nodded. She knew that at a time like this, she had to stay steady and not fall ill, so as not to cause trouble for the children.
Su Lang told Chengzhou and Linlin to take their grandmother back inside.
He turned around, and Jiang Yinzhu jumped in fright, retreating a few steps. "Are you going to hit me again?"
Su Lang sneered. "I won't hit you."
He looked at Bai Mei. "Help him inside. Remember, together!"
After saying this, Su Lang walked straight into the house.
Bai Mei nervously licked her lips. "What does he mean? Why do I have to go?"
Jiang Yinzhu said, "It's fine, let's go in together. Don't worry, he won't hit a woman."
Jiang Yinzhu had watched Su Lang grow up.
He somewhat understood Su Lang's temperament.
Bai Mei felt panicked, a sense that something was about to happen.
Upon entering the dreamlike two-story house, she had no mind to take in its interior.
She suddenly felt a bit of regret.
It seemed she shouldn't have been momentarily blinded by greed for this house.
Actually, as long as Jiang Chengzhou didn't come to take Xiaobao's things, it would be fine. Why was she so fixated on the house at the time?
Thinking of Su Lang's gaze, Bai Mei felt increasingly panicked.
Xu Yueyun sat on the sofa, coaxing the child.
Su Bingcheng had already taken her medicine out of the drawer and set it aside, ready.
Xu Yueyun found it amusing but didn't say much.
Jiang Jinzhu arrived quickly.
He had been waiting at home all day and barely slept last night, thinking only about this matter.
When Su Bingcheng called him, he rushed over immediately.
He couldn't wait a single moment.
As soon as he entered, he saw the beast of his family.
"Dad..."
"Kneel!" Jiang Jinzhu shouted angrily. "Why are you still standing?!"
Jiang Yinzhu felt a bit embarrassed but knelt down anyway.
Xu Yueyun and Su Bingcheng were elders, and later became his father-in-law and mother-in-law.
Kneeling down, Jiang Yinzhu didn't feel it was unjustified.
Bai Mei lowered her eyes, hiding her contempt.
Jiang Yinzhu was in his forties, yet he knelt just like that, without a shred of backbone.
Jiang Jinzhu put on a smile and walked toward the living room sofa. "Comrade Yueyun, Comrade Su Bingcheng, after so many years, I can finally visit again."
Xu Yueyun lowered her eyes and fed her little granddaughter a sip of warm water.
"Chengzhou, take your sister upstairs to play."
Jiang Chengzhou hesitated to speak, but under his uncle's gaze, he chose to keep quiet and led his sister upstairs.
Jiang Jinzhu's eyes followed his grandson until he disappeared from sight before bringing his gaze back.
"Comrade Yueyun, Chengzhou..."
Xu Yueyun raised a hand to interrupt him. "Let's put Chengzhou's matter aside for now. Your daughter-in-law says she wants to call the police to arrest Su Lang for assault."
Jiang Jinzhu immediately turned to look at Bai Mei, his expression terrifying.
Bai Mei mumbled timidly, "Dad, he really did hit someone. Yinzhu was just pinned to the ground and beaten by him, it hurts so much he can't move."
"He deserves it!" Jiang Jinzhu cursed. "He's a sinner, so what if he takes a beating? If it earns the Su family's forgiveness, I'd break his legs myself and it wouldn't matter."
Xu Yueyun sneered. "Jiang Jinzhu, spare me this act. If you were going to break his legs, you would have done it long ago, not left him until now.
Chengzhou is our child, and Old Su and I are absolutely not going to let him go to your side. Just forget about it.
We wanted to make it clear to you this time. Chengzhou is sensible now, and your endless harassment will negatively affect him."
"Comrade Yueyun," Jiang Jinzhu said sincerely. "Everything before was our fault. Rest assured, as long as Chengzhou comes with me, I will absolutely not let him suffer the slightest grievance in the future."
"True," Xu Yueyun mocked. "After all, your little grandson is already a few years old. I imagine Chengzhou won't need to help wash diapers anymore."
Jiang Jinzhu looked embarrassed. "Comrade Yueyun, it was all that beast's fault before. In the future, if Chengzhou lives with me, that absolutely won't happen again!"
Su Bingcheng had endured it for a while and said coldly, "Live with you? What's the benefit of living with you? You're an old cucumber, how many more years can you even live?"
Before coming to the Su family, Jiang Jinzhu had long prepared himself to act like a subordinate.
Even if Su Bingcheng cursed him to die early, he wasn't the least bit angry. "Lao Su, I retired at the same rank as you. Except for this house, which was specially approved by the state to be returned to Comrade Yueyun, my other benefits are exactly the same as yours.
All these years, I haven't given a single cent to that bastard son of mine. I've saved it all for Chengzhou. Including my future pension, I will make a will to leave it entirely to Chengzhou."
Hearing this, Bai Mei's face turned pale.
The reason she had been so secure before was that she knew Jiang Jinzhu only had one son, Jiang Yinzhu, and all his money would eventually go to Jiang Yinzhu.
Even if Jiang Jinzhu thought of his eldest grandson, at least a portion should go to Jiang Yinzhu and Xiaobao.
If it weren't for Jiang Jinzhu, why would she have chosen an old man like Jiang Yinzhu?
Even though he was a minor leader in the factory, compared to... that little salary couldn't give her the life she wanted.
Jiang Yinzhu was also stunned.
"Dad, what are you saying? I don't mind, but aren't you going to consider Xiaobao?"
Jiang Jinzhu ignored him. "Comrade Yueyun, what do you think of this?"
Xu Yueyun smiled. "Jiang Jinzhu, think about it. You have a high pension, but it's only one portion. Lao Su and I have two."
"But you have so many sons and grandsons, how much would Chengzhou actually get? I'm giving everything to Chengzhou."
Jiang Jinzhu had thought it through long ago.
No matter how wealthy the Su couple was, they wouldn't give it to a maternal grandson.
Even for Chengzhou's sake, they had to return Chengzhou to him.
Su Lang glanced upstairs. "Uncle Jiang, my parents have already transferred the ownership of this house to Chengzhou."
