"Mom, what are you talking about? I just haven't found a job yet, I will find a job in the future."

"Besides, everyone says that you should get married and start a career. I'll get married first and then start a career. That's no problem!" Zhang Qiang made the same excuse as always, finding countless excuses for not working, but the original owner believed it.

"Mom, just marry my sister to him. When the time comes, I will marry Pingping and give you a grandson. You can stay at home to take care of the child, and Pingping and I will take care of you in your old age. Isn't that great?"

Zhang Qiang often said these words to the original owner, but the original owner just loved to listen to these sweet words and big promises, and her heart was full of expectations for a better future.

Unexpectedly, Zhang Qiang, her son, not only did not provide for her in her old age, but also squeezed out every bit of her value and kicked her out of the house.

Zhang Wei was very worried at the moment. She was afraid that her mother would go back on her word, but she was too dumb to say those words, nor did she dare to say them. Every time she said she would take care of the original owner in her old age, she would be scolded back by the original owner.

Zhang Li could only clench her hands, and she didn't even dare to look at Ran Qi with fear in her eyes. She could only worry in her heart.

Ran Qi saw Zhang Wei's fear and held her hand, "Don't be afraid. I said I won't let you exchange the betrothal gift."

Then Ran Qi stared at Zhang Qiang angrily and said, "If you want to marry a wife, go make money yourself. What's the point of relying on your sister for support all day long?"

"Does your sister owe you money? She has to support you and pay you back the betrothal money? I'm telling you, from now on your sister will make her own money and spend it on herself, and she won't give you any more money!"

Zhang Qiang was so dissatisfied and complained, "Mom, isn't this what you always told me? My sister is a money-loser. She spends all her money on me. Why are you scolding me now?"

"I was wrong, okay? You should be self-reliant from now on, and don't think about relying on your sister for support!"

At this time, Zhang Wei's eyes were already filled with tears. This was the first time in her life that she heard her mother defend her like this. This kind of warmth was something she had never dared to ask for before.

Even if it was just for a moment, she wanted to catch it.

Looking at his tearful daughter, Ran Qi felt indescribable heartache for Zhang Wei. From the original owner's memory, Ran Qi knew that the original owner had always been cold and indifferent to his daughter since she was a child. Although Zhang Wei had always tried to please the original owner, she was always scolded by him.

Maybe the child has been waiting for these words for a long time, and she needs warmth so much that she is in tears at this moment.

But this is what should be done. As a sister, she has no obligation to raise her younger brother. That was the original owner's responsibility. If she did not educate Zhang Qiang well, that is also the original owner's debt and should not be placed on Zhang Wei's shoulders.

Even Zhang Wei didn't dare to ask, "Mom, are you telling the truth?" She was afraid that these words were just said by her mother to coax her into marrying into the family.

In comparison, Zhang Qiang is much more unscrupulous. He can still say, "Mom, didn't you say that I earn money for me to spend, so it's my duty to support me."

"I was wrong before, but I want to correct it now. You should find a job tomorrow and never ask your sister for money again."

Ran Qi squeezed Zhang Wei's hand and comforted her, "Don't be afraid, Mom was wrong before, this kind of thing will never happen again!"

"Can you forgive Mom?"

With tears on her face, Zhang Wei cried, "Mom, I don't blame you. I really don't blame you."

Looking at the appearance of the mother and daughter, Zhang Qiang thought that Ran Qi was crazy, and he didn't believe that Ran Qi would really do that. He was the most important son and would take care of Ran Qi in his old age.

But Ran Qi didn't care what Zhang Qiang thought, and helped Zhang Wei up. "Don't be afraid, I will go to the Li family to return the money now. You don't have to work three jobs to support your brother in the future. Be nice to yourself."

Zhang Wei couldn't help but shed tears. She felt like she was dreaming. Was her mother comforting her?

When she was dragged by Ran Qi to the Li family to break off the engagement, Zhang Wei felt that this matter seemed to be really true.

Actually, Ran Qi could have come by herself. She brought Zhang Wei with her so that she could see the changes in her and also to prevent her from being bullied by Zhang Qiang at home.

Zhang Wei has been bullied since she was a child. She was so angry that Zhang Qiang treated her like this today. Zhang Wei was not brave enough to resist and could only be bullied.

Because every time Zhang Wei resisted, she was accused by the original owner. After a long time, Zhang Wei didn't dare to do it anymore!

Along the way, Ran Qi comforted Zhang Wei, "Don't be afraid, Mom will take you to break off the engagement, I won't let you marry her."

"I was wrong before and made you feel wronged for so many years. I won't do that again. I know you can't believe it now, but it doesn't matter. Just look at what I can do, okay?"

"When you really think I've changed and forgiven me, then trust me, okay?"

"Mom..." Zhang Wei was so stunned by Ran Qi's sudden words that she didn't know what to say.

In fact, Zhang Wei is not a person who is not good at speaking. She has just been suppressed ideologically by the original owner for many years. Later, she became more and more inferior and even dared not to express her own ideas.

Even going to her today and telling her that he didn't want to get married took a lot of courage. Unfortunately, in his previous life, Zhang Wei was still ruthlessly married to her by the original owner.

After arriving at the Li family, Ran Qi told the Li family that his purpose was to break off the engagement.

Li San couldn't find a wife because of his reputation for domestic violence. No girl was willing to marry him, so his family spent 20 yuan in dowry to marry Zhang Wei.

Their purpose was very simple, which was to find a wife to serve Li San and give birth to children for him. They finally found someone willing to marry their daughter to him, but the Li family naturally refused to give in.

Zhang Wei held on to Ran Qi tightly. She was afraid. She was afraid that Ran Qi would suddenly change his mind and marry her. She didn't even dare to say a word at this moment.

Ran Qi protected Zhang Wei behind him and said, "Your son is a domestic abuser. I don't want my daughter to suffer after marrying here. So the marriage is cancelled today. I will return the betrothal gifts you gave me."

Li's mother also knew about the Zhang family's affairs. She felt that Ran Qi could not be the kind of person who would not let her daughter suffer, so she could only think of raising the price.

So Li's mother took the initiative to ask, "Dear relatives, do you think the gift we gave is not enough? We can add a little more."

Zhang Wei was even more frightened now. She felt that her mother was being very strange today. Maybe she just wanted to get more money.

"Mom..." Despite being scared, Zhang Wei still whispered to herself to fight for it.

Ran Qi comforted Zhang Wei with her hands and said, "Don't be afraid. I will definitely cancel this marriage today. Don't worry."

Ran Qi turned around and told Li's mother, "I came here today not because of the money, but because my daughter does not want to marry your family. I will return the betrothal money to you without a cent less."
