Chapter 165 Trouble!
"Dongmei, what happened!"
Just then, Uncle Chen Baisen walked out with his hands behind his back.
"Uncle! You've come too!"
Chen Dongmei's eyes lit up, and she lowered her head politely.
Chen Baisen frowned and scolded, "Getting married is such a good thing, why can't you maintain good relations with your classmates? You've made things so estranged, you don't care about past feelings at all!"
"Reflect on your behavior and how you managed to handle relationships so poorly!"
When Li Baili and the others saw this, they all shook their heads and laughed.
"See? Even her relatives don't like her. I'm telling you, isn't Chen Dongmei being a bit too shameful!"
"Don't blame me for scolding her earlier."
"That's right, that's her uncle, and no one spoke up for her. Doesn't she know how to reflect on her own actions?"
A group of classmates gathered together, all talking about it, mostly laughing.
See this scene.
Chen Dongmei's eyes reddened, and she couldn't hold back her tears.
To my utter surprise, even my own uncle wasn't on my side.
Chen Bolin stepped out and angrily said, "Brother, what kind of talk is that?"
“I know my daughter best. She’s clearly been wronged. As an elder, how can you take the side of an outsider? What kind of logic is that?!”
Chen Baisen also lost his temper, gave his younger brother a deep look, and said with a look of disappointment, "Linzi, you've always been like this since you were little, spoiling your children, which is why one of you got divorced and the other is a spendthrift!"
"Look at this, she's having a second marriage, and all her relatives and friends are making sarcastic remarks when they come over!"
"You've been abandoned by everyone, and you still don't know how to reflect on your own actions!"
"Dongmei's misfortunes are all because of your overindulgence!"
"Your good-for-nothing second son, Chen Le, is spoiled rotten by you. If I remember correctly, he's drowning in gambling debts and is currently on the run!"
"Even after all this, you still show no remorse!"
Chen Bolin's body suddenly trembled!
His older brother still acts all high and mighty!
Not changed at all!
Because they've made some money over the years, they've completely ignored their family's hardships!
Yes, their own family was struggling, unlike Chen Baisen who lived a life of luxury.
But is this the original sin?
Yes, even my own daughters haven't amounted to anything!
But what's wrong with my own daughter?!
Dongmei is sensible, simple, and ambitious. She cares for her younger brother and respects her elders!
Where do I fall short compared to others?
Ah Le, although he went astray, was still a top student. Now he has seen the error of his ways and returned home with great pride. He paid off his family's debts and is going to bring himself and his wife to the city!
My own children, a dragon and a phoenix!
Why do you have to publicly ridicule your own family when everyone is living happily together?
Like drinking water, only the person drinking it knows whether it's hot or cold!
Chen Bolin raised his head, glared at his elder brother, and said, word by word, "Chen Bosen, put away your arrogant attitude!"
“My son and daughter have always been good children. They have never offended anyone, let alone you.”
“Even when my family was at its poorest, we managed to get through it on our own. We have never owed you anything.”
"You have no right to be so condescending and bossy about my family!"
"Today is my daughter's wedding day, and I didn't want things to get too awkward between us, but you're the one who's making things difficult for us."
I hope you take care of yourself!"
Chen Bosen narrowed his eyes, both amused and annoyed, and gritted his teeth, saying, "Chen Bolin, you're just like you were when you were a kid. You're still so stubborn and have such a bad temper!"
"You can't stand listening to others, you deserve to suffer!"
"Given your family's financial situation, anyone you could find would be 10 times better off than your family!"
"What have you turned Chen Le into? A gambler who loses all sense of direction after winning a little money, and you're still making excuses for him like this!"
"He didn't even dare to come back for his own sister's wedding. He probably gambled away all his money and has no face left!"
Chen Bolin seemed to be instantly enraged, and roared, "It's not like what you said at all! Don't slander Ah Le here, or don't blame me for being impolite!"
Chen Baisen, who was naturally stubborn, wasn't buying it. He crossed his arms and sneered, "You're getting a little out of breath just from saying you're fat, but so what if I said Chen Le?!"
"The Chen family has produced such a wicked child; what a disgrace to the Chen family!"
"Everyone in the surrounding villages knows he's a disgraceful gambler!"
"Originally, I came back this time thinking of giving your son, Ah Le, another chance, at least to give him a stable job, but now it seems that it's not necessary!"
“This kind of gambler is a menace wherever he goes. It’s one thing for him to lose face, but if he drags the entire Chen family down with him, he’ll be letting down his ancestors!”
"When I come back this time, I'm going to set some rules, build the Chen Family Ancestral Hall, and drive him out!"
Chen Baisen said with a proud expression.
He crossed his arms and looked very pleased with himself.
Building the Chen Clan Ancestral Hall is a matter of bringing glory to one's ancestors.
A feng shui master once told him that if he could build an ancestral hall for his ancestors, his family would prosper in the future.
He can be considered a meritorious contributor to the Chen family for over a century.
“You can build an ancestral hall, but you don’t have the right to kick my Ah Le out!”
"I'm still alive today, and I'm going to see how you manage to kick Ah Le out of the Chen family!"
Upon hearing his elder brother's tone, Chen Bolin also became furious.
I just had to argue with him.
"Alright, alright, you said it all!"
"I'll call right now and have my third sister and the others come over!"
Upon hearing this, Chen Baisen's face darkened, and he immediately picked up the phone, turned around, and walked out of the crowd.
"Dad, don't argue with him. He's still my uncle..."
Chen Dongmei went over and took Chen Bolin's hand to persuade him.
"That won't do. I won't acknowledge him as my brother if he embarrasses you in front of so many people!"
Chen Bolin waved his hand and said in a deep voice.
"dad!"
Chen Dongmei was deeply moved and held Chen Bolin's hand tightly.
Then, the family went into the yard.
Half an hour later.
All of Chen's children came to the scene.
They quickly gathered inside the house.
Aunt Chen Meiling crossed her arms and sneered.
She had a conflict with Chen Le last time over debt collection, and she was secretly hoping that her second brother's family would suffer.
Just thinking about Chen Le's arrogant attitude last time...
She felt an indescribable hatred in her heart.
What's more, my older brother is back too.
Even if Chen Le won some money, it was nothing compared to his older brother's!
"Hey second brother, isn't your second son Chen Le quite successful? Why isn't he coming back for his sister's wedding, such a big day?"
"Could it be that he was beaten to death outside? Hahaha!"
Chen Baisen glanced at Chen Meiling and said with a faint smile, "Never mind that bastard Chen Le, let's talk about rebuilding the Chen family ancestral hall today!"
“I, Chen Baisen, funded the construction of the village and recruited villagers to join the company, giving everyone jobs. Everyone has witnessed this.”
"My contributions to the Chen family, such as building the Chen family ancestral hall, and the fact that I made all the decisions, big and small, are all fine with me!"
Immediately, everyone in the Chen family began whispering among themselves, praising the performance repeatedly.
Everyone supports Chen Bosen.
After all, every household had benefited from Chen Baisen's success and had expanded beyond the village.
"However, there is something I must say today!"
"Chen Le is addicted to gambling, squanders his parents' savings, ruins his sister's marriage, and has brought shame to our Chen family!"
"This kind of beast should be removed from the Chen family genealogy!"
"Since your second brother disagrees, I have no choice but to invite everyone over to give their opinions on how to handle this matter!"
In that instant, everyone in the Chen family rallied to support Chen Baisen.
