Chapter 769: Can't go too far without money

"Ah, it's hard to explain." Old Li let out a sigh when he heard this. Although it happened over a year ago, he still feels uneasy about it.
"Every family has their own difficulties. Li's son used to be a good young man, with a stable job. However, I don't know what happened last year, he got involved in gambling. Not only did he lose his job, but he also accumulated a huge amount of debt. On top of that, Li's wife had a stroke and now needs to take medication every day, as she is confined to bed. It's really..."
Surrounded by a stall owner taking the initiative to talk about the situation at Old Li's house, Chen Xiaofeng also felt a bit sentimental. It used to be a good family, but it has fallen.
If it weren't for the help of various old friends from the vegetable market, Old Li wouldn't even be able to afford his wife's medical expenses. But every family has their own difficulties, and now everyone in the vegetable market is also struggling. We can't keep assisting Old Li like this forever.
All people's faces at this moment became very unpleasant, not knowing what to say and not knowing what to do.
Chen Xiaofeng's first reaction was naturally to want to help Lao Li, because there had been several times when he came to Lao Li to slaughter chickens, and Lao Li did not charge any money, so there was still some friendship.
But, Chen Xiaofeng suddenly realized that there was not much money in his pocket, barely enough for living expenses, just like a Mud Bodhisattva.
In an instant, a new idea emerged in Chen Xiaofeng's mind: he had to find a way to acquire some assets. Money was like manure on the island, worthless, but in the city, one cannot move an inch without money.
As Chen Xiaofeng was pondering over the matter, a middle-aged man in his thirties suddenly walked through the crowd and without saying much, went straight towards Old Li.
While walking, the middle-aged man shouts, "Hey, old man, what are you standing here doing nothing for? Give me some money quickly, I don't have money for food."
Saying this, the middle-aged man's face remains expressionless, as if it were a very ordinary thing.
"I...I don't have any money left. A few hundred yuan from home was taken by you a few days ago. Now your mom's medicine expense is uncertain!"
Seeing his unfilial son, Old Li felt angry in his heart, but he couldn't do anything about his son. At this age, he can no longer physically overpower his son, and reasoning with him doesn't work either.
"Do you even know that the few hundred yuan that I took away is nothing to me? It's not even enough for a few days' meals! Damn it!" The middle-aged man's eyes widened as he spewed foul language. He felt that being reborn into this poor family was the unluckiest thing that had ever happened to him. He couldn't even manage to make some money, and there wasn't a single good day.
"You! You!" Old Mr. Li got so angry that he felt dizzy and wanted to teach this unfilial son a lesson.
But at his age now, he no longer had the ability to teach his son.
"Humph! Give me the money quickly, otherwise I'll overturn your stall!" The middle-aged man was furious. His only purpose for coming here today was to get money from his old man.
Old Li is so furious that tears stream down his wrinkled face. He wonders if he committed some terrible sins in his past life, having to endure such suffering at his old age.
People around him are equally enraged, but they have no right to interfere as it is Old Li's family matter.
"Are you Old Li's son?" Chen Xiaofeng said casually when he saw this middle-aged man in his thirties.
Who would have thought that there could be such an unfilial person in the world, as if the person lying on the sickbed at home is not his own mother.
"You little punk, this is my family's business and has nothing to do with you. I advise you not to meddle!" The middle-aged man scolded Chen Xiaofeng, a young man in his twenties, for daring to interfere in his affairs.
"Xiaofeng, you better not get involved in this matter. This guy is just a scoundrel who can't be reasoned with."
"Yeah, we talked about it before, but..."
People around heard that Chen Xiaofeng is planning to intervene in this matter and quickly tried to persuade him. As fellow villagers, they had previously advised Old Li's son, but all they got in return was various deceitful tactics. As a result, they even lost some money.
    After hearing what everyone said, Chen Xiaofeng was even more angry. It seems that this kid is behaving so irresponsibly because no one taught him a lesson for a long time.
    "Do you think you still deserve to be Old Li's son?" Chen Xiaofeng didn't listen to the persuasion of others and started questioning the middle-aged man.

"Haha, whether I am qualified or not is not for you to decide. If he gave birth to me, he has to support me. If he doesn't want to take care of me, he can, unless he dies right now!" The middle-aged man believes that his actions are not wrong and he still wears a proud expression.
Upon hearing this statement, Chen Xiaofeng's anger grew even stronger. It seemed that the person in front of him had reached a point of no return!
"What a waste!" Chen Xiaofeng's tone changed drastically as he said this, his entire demeanor exuded a murderous aura, transforming him from an ordinary and gentle person into someone filled with aggression.
"What's it to you if I'm a loser? It has nothing to do with you. If you want me to leave, fine, but give me five hundred bucks!" The middle-aged man's eyes were now only focused on money, as his mind was constantly calculating where to go tonight to make a profit.
"Five hundred yuan? Okay!" Chen Xiaofeng said as he took out five hundred yuan from his pocket. This was the last bit of money he had left after buying groceries, originally planning to use it to buy some fruit later.
After witnessing this scene, the people around let out a deep sigh in their hearts. Giving 500 yuan to Old Li might have allowed him to buy some medicine for his wife, but giving it to his son would only result in him gambling it all away in one night.
When Lao Li saw this step, he quickly walked towards Chen Xiaofeng and advised, "Xiaofeng, I know you are a good person, but you cannot give him your money. If you give him the money, he will still use it for gambling and lose it!"
Seeing Chen Xiaofeng take out 500 yuan, the middle-aged man's face was instantly filled with joy. He was just worrying about where to get the money to make a profit. 500 yuan is really not much to say, and not little to say.
However, suddenly seeing his father intervene, the middle-aged man became furious and forcefully pushed old Mr. Li, completely disregarding his father's age of over sixty.
Old Li's body couldn't withstand the push from his son. He staggered and fell to the ground. The old Li, already covered in dirt, looked extremely exhausted at this moment.
Seeing the behavior of Lao Li's son, the people around wanted to rush up and give this little guy a good lesson, but they held back their impulses one by one, because this guy is just too helpless. If you push him, he might cling onto you stubbornly.
