In the evening, at Li Chenghui's house.
Li Chenghui had made a lot of money doing projects over the years. His family was wealthy.
Just by looking at the house that the Li family was living in, it was not worse than Li Dong's house in Pingchuan.
When Li Dong arrived with Li Chengyuan, Li Chenghui's son and daughter had already returned.
Seeing Li Dong and Li Chengyuan, Li Nanming curled his lips and did not say a word. He sat on the sofa with his head down and did not move.
Li Qing nodded, but he did not call out to anyone.
Li Dong frowned. He knew that these two were arrogant, but he did not expect them to be like this after so many years.
They did not want to come today. If it was not for his aunt saying that they had something to discuss, Li Dong really did not want his father to get involved.
On the other hand, Li Dong's aunt, Wang Li, was more polite than before. When she saw the two of them, she forced a smile and said, "Second Brother, Dongzi, please sit."
Li Dong and Li Chengyuan found a place to sit down. Li Dong did not wait for Li Chengyuan to speak and asked, "Auntie, what do you want to discuss with my father?"
Wang Li was about to speak when the doorbell rang.
Li Dong did not need to guess to know that it was most likely the one who quarreled with him in the afternoon. He did not expect that person to really dare to come.
Wang Li and Li Qing obviously thought of it too. Their faces were pale and they did not move.
After a while, the doorbell turned into someone knocking on the door. They heard someone shouting outside the door, "Open the door! If you don't open the door, I will smash it!"
Li Nanming had a bad temper. When he heard that, he immediately scolded, "F * ck you. Try to smash the door. I will kill you!"
"Little bastard, Old Li only raised you. How dare you speak like that!"
"…"
The two of them scolded each other through the door. Li Chengyuan's face darkened and he shouted, "What are you doing? Aren't you ashamed? If someone hears you, you will lose face!"
"Don't meddle in our family's business!"
As soon as Li Nanming finished speaking, Li Dong stood up and said, "Dad, let's go. Why should we meddle in their business?"
"What kind of attitude is this!" Li Nan Ming said angrily.
Li Dong glanced at him and coldly said, "Li Nanming, don't be so arrogant in front of me. Do you really think you're someone important?"
Li Nanming was furious. He pointed at Li Dong and wanted to curse at him.
Without waiting for him to speak, Li Dong slapped his hand away and snorted, "Don't be touchy. Believe it or not, I'll beat you to death!"
Li Nanming's eyes flashed when he heard this. He was indeed a little fearful.
When he was young, he often bullied Li Dong when he returned to his hometown. Once, he angered Li Dong and was almost beaten to death by Li Dong.
If not for the adults stopping him, Li Dong would have beaten him to death. Even so, his head would have split open.
From then on, he was a little afraid of his cousin.
These years, the relationship between the two brothers of the Li family was not good. It was also related to this matter. Li Nanming relied on his family's money. Every time he saw Li Dong, he would ridicule him.
However, he did not dare to provoke Li Dong. Although so many years had passed, whenever he saw Li Dong angry, he couldn't help but think of the past.
Just when Li Nanming was in a difficult situation, Wang Li shouted, "Nanming, what are you doing? I have something to discuss with your uncle. Don't cause trouble!"
Li Nanming took the opportunity to step down and snorted, "I won't lower myself to your level."
Li Dong sneered. His face was full of disdain. He was too lazy to care about him.
As they were talking in the room, the knocking sounds outside the room became louder.
Wang Li said with a black face, "Qing Qing, go and open the door!"
Li Qing unwillingly stood up and opened the door. Seeing the two people outside, his face turned ugly, "Shameless!"
Without looking at them, he turned around and returned to his seat.
The middle-aged woman outside the door did not care. She pulled the timid girl behind her and walked in. As she walked, she said, "Daughter, remember, you also have a share in this house. Your father is dying, and you are also a descendant of the Li family. If they want to keep it to themselves, there is no way!"
Li Nanming, who had just sat down, immediately became angry. He said, "Don't talk nonsense! I dare you to say another word! "
The middle-aged woman sneered, "Why? Did I say something wrong? Your father has admitted that he is his descendant. Don't tell me you don't admit it? Your father can't control his pants. Why are you venting your anger on me? "
Li Dong crossed his arms and watched with great interest. Li Chengyuan frowned and said, "Chen Jing, sit down and talk. Don't make a scene."
"Second Uncle, it's not that I want to make a scene. You see, their whole family is bullying us orphans and widows. Your eldest brother is still alive, but this family is going to force us to death. When your eldest brother is gone, will we survive? It's not that I want money, but Xiao Lan is also your niece. I can't watch your niece starve to death. "The middle-aged woman, who was Chen Jing, complained as she spoke.
Li Chengyuan's mouth twitched, but he could not refute her.
After a while, Li Chengyuan said with a headache, "Sister-in-law, what do you want to talk to me about?"
Wang Li pretended not to see Chen Jing and her daughter. She said to Li Chengyuan, "Today, I mainly want to discuss your eldest brother's funeral with you. The doctor said that your eldest brother can only live until the end of the month at most. Your eldest brother wants to be buried in your hometown. Nanming and I don't understand, and we don't know anyone in your hometown … "
After Wang Li finished speaking, Li Dong understood her purpose.
In short, if Li Chenghui passed away, the funeral would be handled in the hometown, and Li Chengyuan would be responsible for it.
According to Li Dong's plan, it would be best for his father not to get involved. It would be troublesome.
However, Li Dong felt that his father would definitely agree, because Li Chenghui was his only brother. Moreover, what Wang Li said was true. Wang Li and Li Nanming were indeed not familiar with their hometown.
As expected, after Wang Li finished speaking, Li Chengyuan nodded and said, "Okay, leave it to me."
Then, Li Chengyuan said unwillingly, "Is there really no other way? Should we go to another hospital? "
Li Nanming frowned and said, "What else? The doctor said that there's no cure. It's a waste of money to go to another hospital."
Li Chengyuan stared at him and said, "I'll pay for it. It's better than watching him die!"
Li Nanming curled his lips and muttered, "You make it sound like you're rich. Don't tell me you still want us to pay for it in the end."
Li Chengyuan was exasperated. Just as he was about to speak, Wang Li said, "Second Brother, we appreciate your kindness, but what Nanming said is the truth. Your eldest brother has been treated in all the hospitals in Qingyang. It's the same to go to another hospital."
Li Chengyuan sighed and shook his head. He did not say anything else.
After talking about the funeral, Wang Li said, "There's one more thing I want to discuss with Second Brother."
"Sister-in-law, go ahead."
Wang Li glanced at Chen Jing. After a while, she said, "This is what your eldest brother told me after you left this afternoon."
"Your eldest brother said to let you adopt Li Lan. Chen Jing gave her 30,000 yuan and told her to get lost!"
When this was said, Li Dong was dumbfounded. Li Chengyuan was dumbfounded. Chen Jing and Li Lan were a little dumbfounded.
Li Dong was the first to react. He immediately said, "Auntie, our family will not get involved in this matter. It's up to you how you deal with it. My parents are old and have no time to take care of people."
After saying that, Li Dong cursed in his heart. Li Chenghui is cheating people!
You don't have to do this if you're worried about your illegitimate daughter.
Not to mention that Li Lan's mother was still alive. Even if Chen Jing was gone, this matter would not be Li Chengyuan's responsibility.
Li Chengyuan was also stunned for a while. Before he could speak, Chen Jing screamed, "I don't agree!"
Wang Li glanced at her and said disdainfully, "It's your business if you don't agree. If you don't agree, don't even think about getting a penny! Do you think 30,000 yuan is a small amount? Go and ask. For someone like you, 30,000 yuan is a good deal for you! "
"Also, don't think that Li Chenghui is really rich! All these years, he has been eating, drinking, and gambling. Except for this house, he has nothing left. This house still owes the bank a loan of more than 100,000 yuan! The 30,000 yuan I gave you was borrowed from my brother. If you don't want it, just pretend I didn't say anything. "
Chen Jing naturally did not believe Wang Li's words. She immediately scolded, "Who are you lying to? Old Li's construction team doesn't make money? They make at least a few hundred thousand a year. Do you think I don't know anything? "
"Construction team? Are you still counting on that? To tell you the truth, the construction team has been disbanded. Once Old Li fell ill, the construction team was disbanded. Now, the construction team still has a few hundred thousand unpaid. If you have the ability, go and ask for it. Once you get it, the few hundred thousand will belong to you. "
Wang Li sneered and continued, "Also, Old Li's treatment cost nearly 200,000 yuan. If you want a share of the money, don't you have to pay for the treatment too?"
Chen Jing was about to go crazy. She did not believe a single word that Wang Li said!
How could Li Chenghui not have money? If he didn't have money, why would Wang Li mess with her?
However, now that Wang Li said this, she did not know how to refute. After all, she had only heard it from others. She was not sure if Li Chenghui had squandered all his money.
Chen Jing was half dead from anger. She did not argue with Wang Li. She only said one thing, "I don't agree!"
"I don't agree either!" Li Dong snorted. What kind of dog-eat-dog thing was this? His father was asking for help to raise an illegitimate daughter. His uncle was really daring.
After Li Dong finished speaking, he glanced at Li Chengyuan and saw his father's hesitation.
Li Dong knew at a glance that his father might be tempted. He quickly whispered, "Dad, don't get involved. If my mom finds out …"
It was not that Li Dong was cold-blooded. The key was that he had a mother and a half-brother and sister. This matter was really not something that could be easily agreed to.
Li Dong did not care about raising a person, but what about Chen Jing?
Even if she agreed now, would she not make a fuss in the future?
If she took 30,000 yuan this time, when the money was spent, would she come to Li Chengyuan?
At that time, Li Chenghui would be dead. Wang Li's family of three would definitely not care about them. They could not let Li Chengyuan help their boss raise an illegitimate daughter.
Li Chengyuan was tempted because he had heard about this niece from Li Chenghui before.
Li Chenghui was very timid. Chen Jing was not a person who cared about children. It would be fine if Li Chenghui was alive. Once Li Chenghui was gone, Chen Jing might abuse her niece.
If he could get some money this time, Chen Jing might treat Li Lan well. If not, Li Lan would not have a good life.
Li Chengyuan thought about it and glanced at Li Lan, who was like a frightened rabbit behind Chen Jing. His eyes flashed with worry. Finally, he said, "Sister-in-law, I can't agree to this. I will help my boss. You can discuss this matter yourselves."
Li Chengyuan was afraid that he would be soft-hearted. He quickly pulled Li Dong away.
