After the caregiver left the room, Mrs. Rong Sr. threw the cloth aside and wearily climbed up from the floor, sobbing, “My eyesight is getting worse. If I have to continue living like this, I might as well be dead!”

Then, Mrs. Rong Sr. sat on the bed and cried, “I told you to call Rong Qi, why didn’t you listen? She’s so wealthy, what’s wrong with giving us a little? At the very least, it wouldn’t be difficult for her to set us up with an apartment in the capital and a few servants. How could she follow in her heartless mother’s footsteps! My life is filled with misfortune! An ungrateful daughter-in-law leads to an equally ungrateful granddaughter!”

Mrs. Rong Sr.’s weeping was not new to Rong Tianshi; it had become a constant refrain during her visits. Rong Tianshi, without even lifting his eyelids, spoke softly, “Feiyu is your granddaughter too. It’s been many days since she visited either. Why don’t you call her?”

Mrs. Rong Sr.’s tearful complaints came to an abrupt halt. She then spoke coldly, “How can Rong Qi compare to Feiyu? Feiyu is just starting her career, she doesn’t rely on any man, and she’s busy with her studies at Capital University. It’s normal for her not to have time. But Rong Qi doesn’t even need to attend university, so why doesn’t she take care of us?”

Rong Tianshi exhaled wearily, feeling that talking was useless, and wanting to rest, he closed his eyes to sleep. Mrs. Rong Sr.’s nagging continued to ring in his ears, like an inescapable curse.

After a while, seeing no one responding, Mrs. Rong Sr. snapped irritably, “I’ll go back to the Rong residence now. If Rong Qi won’t support us, someone will. I refuse to believe that Wang Qing would be so heartless. She now controls the other shares of the Rong family. I’ll just not fight with her for it. I’ll go and demand some money to bring back. You wait here.”

With that, Mrs. Rong Sr. stood up and headed out.

Rong Tianshi sighed inwardly, “If you want to knock your head against the wall, go ahead.”

Once people start compromising their standards, they keep lowering them until they have no standards left. Not long ago, Mrs. Rong Sr. cursed Wang Qing, swearing to take back the Rong family. Now, in just a few days, she’s succumbed to money.

Rong Tianshi chuckled sarcastically and closed his eyes for a quiet sleep.

Mrs. Rong Sr. left the hospital and hailed a cab to the Rong residence. On arrival, she realized she had no money to pay the fare. The cab driver dragged her out of the cab, spitting disdainfully, “How dare you take a cab without money? Do you think you can emotionally blackmail me into giving you a free ride? Who do you think you are, the Empress Dowager in the Qing Dynasty? Blah!”

The cab driver slammed the car door shut and sped away with a roar. As the cab disappeared from sight, Mrs. Rong Sr. was left dazed and reeling from the fall. The cold wind made her shiver. It had been a long time since she had seen the sun.

Mrs. Rong Sr. rubbed her bruised eyes, squinting to see within the limited range of her fading vision. Cursing under her breath, “Low-life snob! When my son regains his position as the head of the Rong family, I’ll see you grovel at my feet!”

Shivering, Mrs. Rong Sr. stood up and staggered towards the Rong residence. But just as she approached the residence’s gate, she saw people bustling about, moving items out of the house.

Mrs. Rong Sr. hurried forward and intervened, “What are you doing? Stop! Stop!”

The movers, looking down at the shabbily dressed Mrs. Rong Sr.., pushed her aside with disdain and said, “What’s a beggar doing here? Get lost; can’t you see we’re busy moving things?”
