Chapter 286 If You Were My Son, I Would Die of Joy

"Help!" Lei's father had never expected that Lei Yan would become increasingly unfilial. He pulled out a kitchen knife and swung it at Lei Yan, while pressing the wheel of the cart tightly under him. "You unfilial daughter, I'm telling you, there's a lot of people coming and going here. If you don't give me the money and I start a disturbance in the village, Sanhuo won't be able to go to school anymore."

"You..." Lei Yan's face turned black with anger after hearing this. She pointed at Lei's father and said, "Sanhuo is your own son. Even a tiger won't eat its own son! And you're so good that you want to destroy even your own son, right?"

Lei Yan stared at Lei's father, grabbed his clothes, and wished he could eat him alive.

"What's the big deal about going to school? Just knowing a few words is enough. Otherwise, do you really think Sanhuo can pass the imperial examination and become a high-ranking official?" Lei's father sat on the wheel, kitchen knife in hand, looking desperate. "Five hundred coins, isn't that just a day's work?"

"Erhuo, give me some money, and I promise not to cause trouble in the village in the future." Father Lei acted like a scoundrel.

"Five hundred coins! For five hundred coins, you almost made me fall into the valley?" Lei Yan looked at him coldly and said, "Tell me, how much do you owe this time?"

"Not much." Father Lei stretched out a palm.

Lei Yan raised his eyebrows: "Five taels?"

"Erhuo, I only need 500 coins right now." Father Lei laughed and said, "Lei Yan, 500 coins is enough right now."

"What on earth did you do?" Lei Yan stared at him, becoming more alert in his heart. He used to be willing to ask for a huge sum of money, but today he only wanted five hundred coins?

"What can I do? Hurry up and get the money." Father Lei looked at her impatiently and said, "Anyway, don't even think about leaving until you see the money today."

"No money, not a cent." Lei Yan immediately tried to rob him, but his father yelled, "Robbery!"

"Shut up." Lei Yan pressed him down and snatched the kitchen knife from his hand: "I'm telling you, Lei Yan will live in the village from now on. If you dare to have any ideas about Lei Yan, I can do anything."

The kitchen knife in Lei Yan's hand was placed directly on Lei's father's neck. As long as he exerted a little force, Lei's father, who had harmed his mother, elder sister, and their entire family, would die!

"You beast!" Father Lei was furious and shouted, "Help!"

"Let him go." Chu Ang was on his way to Fu'an Village when he encountered this incident. Chu Ang hurried over and shouted at Lei Yan, "How dare you kill someone in broad daylight!"

"Good man, please save me." Father Lei saw Chu Ang as if he had seen a savior. He said, "My evil daughter wants to kill me, her father. Isn't she afraid of thunder and lightning?"

"How dare a daughter kill her own father?" Chu Ang had traveled extensively, but he had never seen anything like this before. He rushed forward and said, "Let her go immediately."

"Get lost." Lei Yan raised the kitchen knife in his hand and said, "You don't need to meddle in our family affairs."

"No, Fu'an Village is just ahead. Are you from the village too?" Chu Ang stared at Lei Yan and said, "I've seen many cruel and ruthless women like you, but I've never seen anyone like you who wants to kill her own father."

Chu Ang rushed forward and helped Lei's father up: "Don't be afraid, I will take care of this matter today."

"Oh, my life is so miserable. I raised my daughter with all my hard work. Now I'm not feeling well and asked for 500 coins, but she won't give it to me." Father Lei wiped his tears and sobbed, "Erhuo, if you run a grocery store in the county, I can also see a doctor if you can squeeze a little money between your fingers."

"Cough, cough." Father Lei was still coughing while holding his chest. He held Chu Ang's hand and said, "Young man, you are a good young man. Good people will be rewarded in the future."

"You said your daughter runs a grocery store?" Chu Ang looked at Lei Yan, who was standing aside in silence, grabbing the wheels and replacing them on the carriage. She said nothing and did not explain, which formed a sharp contrast with Lei's father who kept crying about his daughter's unfilial behavior.

"Yes." Father Lei sighed, "It's because I'm useless as a father. I'm old and my daughter dislikes me."

Father Lei sat aside, looking pitiful like an abandoned person.

"Hey, don't you have anything to say?" Chu Ang walked in front of Lei Yan. The girl looked young, but she was very efficient when doing her work.

"Didn't you say that I was cruel and ruthless? Then what can I say?" Lei Yan rolled her eyes and was too lazy to talk to Chu Ang. She was still in a hurry to pick up Lei Yan. No, she had to talk to the teacher and see if Lei Yan could stay in the college for some days!

Lei Yan clapped her hands and threw the replaced wheel onto the carriage. She looked at her father and said, "Anyway, there's no money. I won't give you a penny."

"No, I'm still waiting for this money to save my life." Father Lei rushed forward and stopped the carriage from leaving.

Lei Yan picked up a kitchen knife and blocked in front of him: "Why, you want to fight?"

"You, that's your biological father." Chu Ang looked at this scene and felt that something was wrong. He said, "Even if he had done many wrong things in the past, he is still your biological father. How can you watch your biological father die?"

Chu Ang looked at Lei Yan excitedly and said, "Dear father, no matter how big the mistake is, it shouldn't cost you a few hundred coins to save your life. You are such a cruel woman!"

He wants a father but doesn't have one yet, and this woman doesn't want one even though she has one.

"If you feel sorry for it, then give it to me." Lei Yan pulled the reins and interrupted him.

"You..." Chu Ang was so stunned that he didn't know what to say. He took a deep breath and said, "That's your biological father, not mine."

"Then why are you still jumping up and down?" Lei Yan raised his foot and stepped directly onto the carriage, playing with a kitchen knife in his hand. Chu Ang stepped back when he saw it. How could he play with this kitchen knife casually?

"Young man, you are a good boy. She didn't die even though she didn't give you the money. At most, you will just die." Father Lei wiped his tears and praised Chu Ang, holding his chest as if he was going to faint.

"Just pretend, keep pretending." Lei Yan looked at him and snorted coldly. She, her mother and her elder sister were all deceived by his tears and snot.

"What's wrong with you? Are you feeling unwell?" Chu Ang looked at Lei's father's pale face and said to Lei Yan, "Your father seems to be really ill. You should take him to see a doctor immediately."

Based on his experience, Father Lei is definitely sick, and his illness is very serious.

"Get lost." Lei Yan was too lazy to pay attention to him and was about to pull the carriage away. Chu Ang reached out to stop him, but Lei Yan glared at him and said, "Why, you want to fight?"

"Gee." Lei Yan drove the carriage away. Chu Ang watched Lei's father fall down, then looked at the departing carriage and couldn't help but shout, "Who is this?"

"Young man." Father Lei grabbed Chu Ang, covered his chest, and lay on the ground, crying out in pain, "You are such a good person. If you were my son, I would be so happy that I would die."
