Chapter 873: Chapter 873: Scumbag Brother and Scumbag Dad, Get Lost (19)

Meng Wengan sat on the ground, his ferocious appearance did not scare Qiann Yan, but it did startle the villagers who were watching.

Thinking that there was nothing more to see here, the villagers gradually dispersed.

Once everyone had left, Meng Wengan started to sob. The genuine pain from his wounds made him realize that everything that had happened earlier was not fake.

Faced with Qiann Yan busying herself not far away, his eyes were filled with resentment.

"Qiann Yan, I didn’t expect you to be so vicious."

Qiann Yan raised her eyes, her cold gaze swept over Meng Wengan, making him feel uncomfortable and instinctively fearful. But in his current state, he didn’t believe this little girl could do anything more to him.

He had become crippled, forever losing the chance to seek fame and glory because of her.

Faced with such a Meng Wengan, Qiann Yan never expected him to reflect on himself from the start.

She suddenly became curious, wondering what had happened from Meng Wengan’s perspective in the original lifetime. What happened to the Meng Family after being separated from the original self.

As she was thinking this, a series of memories surfaced in her mind. She paused, temporarily putting aside other thoughts, and quickly went through these memories.

This was the first time she was observing past events from another person’s perspective, piquing her curiosity about what had happened.

In the memories, Meng Wengan had taken a man, who supposedly admired the original owner, to the brothel, from which the original owner was redeemed and left with that man. Since then, he never saw the original owner again.

After the original owner was sold into the brothel, Mrs. Zhang’s health deteriorated, and a year after the original owner was taken by that man, she passed away.

Once Mrs. Zhang was gone, only Xu Yunniang remained in the house, and all the chores fell on her shoulders.

She had to work the fields, do embroidery, take care of the children, and was also responsible for meals for the whole family. Naturally, she had to take care of the laundry as well.

Meng Wengan did not wake up due to the original owner’s suffering. Instead, he became worse, going to the gambling house whenever he had some silver, leaving the house in shambles.

Meng Chongxi firmly believed that Meng Wengan could earn a reputation, but he was also strongly opposed to his gambling. Each time the father and son argued over this, it would end unpleasantly.

Unable to gain an advantage with Meng Wengan, Meng Chongxi would come home and scold Xu Yunniang for being incompetent, unable to control her own man.

Later, Meng Wengan sank deeper into it and almost had his fingers chopped off once. With no other options, he turned his attention to his own children, and if Xu Yunniang hadn’t been weathered and lost her beauty, she probably wouldn’t have escaped the fate of being sold.

Meng Chongxi also agreed to sell his granddaughter, thinking that she was just a girl. Xu Yunniang finally fell into despair, and when the child was taken away from her, she was powerless and ultimately chose to bash her head in front of the two men.

The child was taken away and beaten to death for being disobedient.

Later, Meng Chongxi was also beaten to death because Meng Wengan could not repay his gambling debt.

Meng Wengan ended up wandering the streets, and people at the casino would throw him out whenever they saw him, never giving him the chance to gamble.

Everyone knew he was just like Lee the Madman, he had destroyed a perfectly fine family all because of gambling.

At that time, Meng Wengan was only twenty-five, the prime of his life, yet he had become a beggar that everyone despised.

Whenever festivals came, and every household lit up with lamps and filled with various aromas, Meng Wengan would recall the happy days of the past.

In the one or two years of being a beggar, he came to realize and regretted it.

He decided to rise again; he still had a sister, and he needed to strive to live because he still had a sister waiting for him to enjoy a good life.
