Chapter 680 - Ingratitude

It was fine if he did not say anything, but when he did, Aunt Cheng’s anger shot up.

“I already said so. What’s wrong? Do you still want to run to them and complain about me? I haven’t even reprimanded you yet and you still have the cheek to criticize me? We’re both from the Cheng family. They live in a big and spacious beautiful house and have servants and chefs at home. They lead comfortable lives. What about our family? We even have to hesitate for half a day to buy a new house for our son.”

Aunt Cheng pointed at her husband and scolded him like a shrew. “You’re such a good-for-nothing. You don’t even dare to fart in front of others. I’m just telling the truth, yet you’re so afraid of offending others. What, did I say something wrong? It was their family’s fault in the first place. They coaxed the Old Master to leave everything to them.”

“That’s fine. We’re all family. It’s not a big deal for them to help us after receiving benefits. But look at what happened in the end? They lived comfortably and had everything. They watched as our family led a tough life. Heh heh, in my opinion, the reason why they did not have children for so many years is because they’ve done too many immoral things. It’s retribution! If God had eyes, he should have made them die without descendants!”

Uncle Cheng listened to his wife’s harsh words and opened his mouth, but in the end, he did not say anything.

Although he was an honest man, his family had not been harmonious all these years and his career had not been smooth-sailing. It made this man, who did not have much ability, look older and more miserable.

His wife’s accusation also made him start to feel some resentment towards the Cheng family. After all, they were relatives. If the Cheng family could give them something, their family would not have had such a difficult time.

However, the couple had clearly forgotten that although they had the surname Cheng, they were not related to the Cheng family at all.

The Great Old Master Cheng had pitied his grandfather back then, so he adopted him and raised him.

Although they split up and the Great Old Master Cheng did not give their grandfather as much as Old Master Cheng got, he was still their biological son after all. As an adopted son, he gave you such a large sum of money, enough for you to live comfortably for the rest of your life.

As long as you have some backbone and take this money to walk your own path, that would be your true ability.

Helpless, Cheng Fenglang’s grandfather did not think so.

After receiving this sum of money, he resented the stinginess of the Cheng Family, but at the same time, he hoped that he would still be able to freeload off his brother after spending all the money.

Not only was he not down-to-earth, but he was also using this money to do business to support his family. On the contrary, he was even more extravagant than usual. Not long after, he spent more than half of the money and excitedly ran to the Cheng Family to ask for money.

Initially, the Cheng Family had given it to them once or twice out of consideration for their old relationship. Later on, they realized that it was a blood-sucking bug that could not be fed enough, so they did not bother with them anymore. Instead, they bore a grudge against them.

Even the juniors were resentful and felt that the Cheng family deliberately crippled their grandfather to prevent him from competing with Old Master Cheng for the inheritance. It was really just like the saying: “Benevolence makes the heart grow.”

Cheng Fenglang’s family had already spent most of their money in their Grandfather Cheng’s generation, but Uncle Cheng’s generation wanted to use the money to do business.

Unfortunately, Uncle Cheng did not have much business sense. After several years of business, he did not make much money and even lost a lot of money.

The more difficult the days were, the more Aunt Cheng hated the Cheng family. However, she had never thought that the Cheng family did not owe them anything from the beginning, so why should they help them?
