That day.

A chaotic civil war is raging in Su Yinwan's uncle's house.

"Su Ming, I worked so hard to marry into your Su family and gave birth to your two children. Even if I didn't do anything great, I still deserve credit for my hard work."

"I don't care, you have to pay me today whether you like it or not, or I'll make a scene at the old man's place."

Zhou Man, having given up all hope, sat on the sofa and glared fiercely at Su Ming.

The way a wife looks at her husband is completely different from how an enemy looks at a wife; instead, it's more like the way an enemy looks at his wife.

Yesterday, Zhou Man's mother called her.

The person on the other end kept crying.

After Zhou Man inquired further, she learned that it was her good-for-nothing younger brother who had tried to speculate in stocks and had incurred a large debt.

That's a full 500,000.

In the past, Zhou Man could take money from home anytime to help her family.

But things are different now.

All that's left for their family now is this house and the small business that Su Ming is currently running.

But her family was determined to pay the money themselves, or they would sever ties with her.

They'll come to Beicheng and cause a scene, badmouthing her.

An ungrateful daughter who disregards the lives of her own family.

Zhou Man was still afraid of the Zhou family deep down.

Perhaps it's a shadow left by the fears and anxieties of childhood.

Su Ming took a deep drag on his cigarette, his inner turmoil finding no outlet.

Several cigarette butts had fallen into the ashtray on the table.

This reveals his distress at being unable to continue living in this family, and his anger at his wife's determination to help her family with their finances.

"Anyway, that's your Zhou family's business, I won't spend any more money. We've been married for so many years, how much money have you given to your family? If not three million, then at least two million."

He took a drag of his cigarette and looked at Zhou Man with heartache, saying, "And your brother who's always causing trouble, how many connections did I use to cover for him back then, and he still can't even call me brother-in-law."

Su Ming thought of Zhou Man's arrogant and rude younger brother, who had never given him a kind attitude or even a good look.

If it weren't for the fact that Zhou Man was his wife, he wouldn't bother with all the messy affairs that the Zhou family had been causing.

Now, they can't even take care of their own little family.

Zhou Man even had unrealistic ideas, such as going bankrupt to help her family.

This is insane! What kind of person did he marry?

“That’s my brother. Are you expecting me to just stand by and watch him die? My mom said if I don’t transfer the money over in the next couple of days, they’re going to take my brother away. He’s the only male in our Zhou family.”

Zhou Man was so angry that she trembled all over and threw all the cushions on the sofa onto the floor.

Before this, Zhou Man had already thrown all the household items, including pots, pans, and decorations, onto the ground.

Some parts are broken, some parts are rotten.

By this time, the house was in complete disarray.

Su Ming was already used to it, and his heart remained unmoved.

Every time the two argued, Zhou Man would start with this, and Su Ming would always have to retaliate in the end.

“Zhou Man, I’ll say it again, I have no money. If your family wants to steal or rob, it’s none of my business.”

After saying that, Su Ming stubbed out the last cigarette in his hand and walked towards the door.

"Where are you going? Take care of my brother's matter first, Su Ming, do you hear me? If you have the guts, don't come back after you leave this door."

Zhou Man watched Su Ming's departing figure with a furious expression, her face contorted with rage.

"Don't forget that I am the head of the family. The name on the property certificate is my Su Ming, not your Zhou Man."

Su Ming couldn't take it anymore, and he glared at Zhou Man.

After saying that, he slammed the door shut and left.

"ah......"

"Why am I so unlucky..."

Zhou Man was yelling and screaming wildly in the living room like a madwoman.

How could she have married such a heartless and cold-blooded person?

Just then, Zhou Man's phone rang.

The caller was her mother.

"mom."

"You brat, what's going on? Does it really take that long to raise 500,000?"

"Mom, I'm trying to figure something out, but Su Ming won't give it to me, so I can't do anything about it."

“What is your husband thinking? This money is for saving my precious son. Make him transfer it right away.”

“I argued with him today, and he showed no intention of giving it to me, telling us to resolve it ourselves.”

"What a useless piece of trash. If I had known he was so stingy, I should have asked for more money in the first place."

"Okay, I'm not going to talk to you anymore. I'll try my best to transfer the money to you."

Zhou Man hung up the phone and rubbed her temples.

A moment later.

She made a phone call to her son, Su Zhe.

The voice on the other end sounded impatient. "Mom, what is it?"

"Xiao Zhe, my uncle has run into some trouble and needs 500,000 yuan. Do you think you could lend him some money?"

Zhou Man spoke gently to Su Zhe, explaining the reasons, afraid that her son would refuse.

"Has Uncle gambled again? Or has he done something to rack up such a large debt?"

It seems that they were already used to their uncle being such an incorrigible person, and were not very surprised.

"Your uncle lost money in the stock market, it's all that person's fault. He insisted on dragging your uncle down with him. Now it's a matter of life and death. If you don't give them the money, they're going to take your uncle away. Waaah!"

As Zhou Man spoke, she forced herself to shed tears.

She wanted to use this to gain her son's help.

"What did Dad say?"

"Don't mention him to me. He's such a tightwad, he won't spend a single penny. I really married the wrong person."

"Oh, Mom, sometimes I feel sorry for Dad. I think he's such a traitor. He works so hard to support the family and also has to help you support Grandma's family, and in the end he still doesn't get any credit."

"That's what he deserves. I'm married to him, shouldn't I contribute money and effort as well?"

Zhou Man always felt that Su Ming had an obligation and a duty to take care of her family and provide financial support to them.

"Forget it, you'll never understand. Besides, I can't help with Uncle's matter. All my money is with Xiaolin, and I'm saving it for my wedding. Mom, let me give you a piece of advice: mind your own business. It's a bottomless pit. You should focus on living a good life with Dad."

Su Zhe on the other end spoke earnestly.

"You're just like your dad, both heartless bastards."

Zhou Man seemed not to understand Su Zhe's true intentions and continued to do things her own way.

"Sigh, never mind. I'm not talking to you anymore, I'm still at work, bye."

Before Zhou Man could reply, the other end of the phone hung up.

"Raising a son is like not raising one at all, it's infuriating."

Zhou Man pounded her chest and cursed.

At that moment, the door to the house was opened by someone outside with a key.

Zhou Man thought Su Ming had returned.

"My mom just called and asked me to transfer some money over. Why don't you transfer some money first?"

Since her son wouldn't give her the money, she had to try to persuade Su Ming again.

Looking up, I saw Su An coming in from outside, carrying large and small bags.

"Mom, who were you talking to just now?"

Seeing that Zhou Man was the only one at home, Su An asked in confusion.

I looked around the messy house again, with all the things scattered on the floor.

Su An wasn't surprised at all, and sneered, "Mom, you're arguing with Dad again? Looks like you won again."
