“Just go and sue me in court! Let’s see who the judge will give the sentence to. It’s only right and proper for a mother to take her son’s money. What’s the matter with you?”

The Old Madam was also shocked by the word ‘court’. She hid in her room for a long time and did not dare to come out and speak.

Perhaps Yun Gang had said something to the Old Madam and helped the Old Madam gain courage. Now that the Old Madam thought she had a point, she walked into the courtyard and began to argue with Yun Xi.

“Grandma, don’t use your old views to scrutinize the current law. Even if I steal my father’s money, I will still have to bear legal responsibility. I think eldest uncle should know a little about these things.”

Yun Xi saw Yun Gang standing at the door and watching, so she threw the topic to Yun Gang.

Yun Gang had only wanted to stand at a distance to watch the show, but he did not expect Yun Xi to be able to tell at a glance that he was advising the Old Madam from behind. If he were to use those words to deceive the Old Madam now, it would definitely not make sense. However, if he were to answer truthfully, the Old Madam would definitely vent her anger on him.

It was really hard to back down now.

“I don’t really understand this either…” Yun Gang could only give a more neutral answer.

“Oh, eldest uncle, you’ve been a village official for so many years. Don’t you even know this bit of common sense and legal knowledge?” Yun Xi did not continue speaking after this point, only leaving behind a meaningful gaze.

Yun Gang felt that he had been looked down upon. Yun Xi’s gaze was clearly saying that it was no wonder that he could not sit in the position of village official for a long time. It turned out that he was a stupid person.

“Don’t use the law to threaten me. It’s only right for my son to be filial to his mother. You lass, don’t meddle in the matters between my son and me here.”

The Old Madam did not listen to what kind of punishment she would receive. She still felt that what Yun Gang had just said to her was right.

People were always good at deceiving themselves when it came to matters related to their own interests.

“Alright, I can’t be bothered to interfere in the matters between you and your son. However, there should be a portion of the money from selling the corn that’s for my mother, right? As a daughter, I naturally have the right to interfere in my mother’s matters,” Yun Xi argued with the old lady.

“She’s just a daughter-in-law who married into our Yun family. A woman should obey her husband once she’s married. How could she have her own share of the money? All this money should belong to my son.”

In the Old Madam’s deep-rooted thoughts, she believed that everything that belonged to a wife should belong to the husband and that a daughter-in-law was just a free nanny.

“Where did you get this old-fashioned idea from? Now, men and women are equal. It’s no longer your era where men are more important than women. Women and men have the same rights.” Yun Xi slowly broke down the Old Madam’s last psychological line of defense.

In fact, they were both women. Why would a woman make things difficult for a woman?

It was just that the Old Madam had already forgotten that she was a woman because of her deep-rooted thoughts. Now, she only remembered that she was elderly, an elderly who could command her children.

The Old Madam looked at Yun Gang in confusion. Yun Gang quickly turned his head away and did not look directly into the Old Madam’s eyes.

The Old Madam turned her gaze toward Yun Shan again, hoping that her two sons would give her a clear answer.

Yun Shan saw the Old Madam’s hopeful gaze, but he could not refute Yun Xi’s words. He could only silently lower his head.

“All of you are ganging up to bully an old lady like me! Don’t you just want money? I will return this money to you!”

The Old Madam opened a bag that she had sewn on her waist. There was a stack of money stuffed in the bag.

The Old Madam threw the money on the ground angrily. A stack of blue hundred-dollar bills moved forward a little against the wind.

Ma Yan looked at the money on the ground with her eyes wide open.

“Mom, don’t be like this! If you need money, you can just tell me directly!”

Yun Shan did not care. He picked up the money on the ground bit by bit because the money was originally his.

“I’m almost dead! What money could I need? I just want to keep some money. After I die, the money will be yours. Why do you have to make things difficult for an old woman like me?”

The Old Madam suddenly seemed to lose all her strength and collapsed to the ground.
