Chapter 71 Who are you with?

“You underestimate Peking University’s talent selection mechanism. Unless you have a problem yourself, something as trivial as your parents’ divorce won’t affect you at all.”

The eldest daughter-in-law frowned, her voice slightly cold, as she confronted Su Xiaosi.

What's going on with Su Yushun?

Not worried about her mother-in-law, only concerned about herself?

That's so selfish.

Boss Su nodded from the side, "Little Si, you're too nervous. No one will affect your future."

Su Xiaosi pursed her lips and looked at Li Banxia, ​​who was standing silently to the side.

Li Banxia glanced at him, looked away, and turned to go back inside.

"mom!"

Su Laosan swallowed hard, trying to bargain, "If I choose you, can I not look for a job?"

"……cannot."

Li Banxia glanced at him and said, "You must have a job that can support your wife and children."

"Huh?" Old Su was displeased.

"Or do you want to become like your father, planning to rely on your wife to support you for the rest of your life? Or do you want your wife to be like me, working hard for most of her life to support the family, only to receive no kind words in return?"

Old Su was stunned for a moment, then said, "I didn't think that way, I just..."

He glanced at Li Banxia, ​​but didn't dare to say it.

Li Banxia looked at him and asked, "If you don't find a job, who do you plan to support you, your wife, and your children?"

Su Laosan shrank his neck.

He wanted to be supported by his mother. He bragged to Erniu that his mother was amazing, supporting their whole family all by herself. They even had meat to eat and new clothes to wear from time to time. He said that once Erniu married him, their whole family would continue to be supported by his mother, without having to work in the fields, and they would even have pocket money. How wonderful!

Erniu was persuaded by him because of this. She said that as long as he could treat her well and let her live such a good life, she would marry him without asking for anything else.

Su Laosan scratched his head and said, "I'm so lazy, what job would want me?"

"Then you shouldn't get married, so you don't have to make fun of other girls."

"That won't work."

Su Laosan shook his head repeatedly, "I've already told Erniu that we'll get married when the weather cools down."

Li Banxia looked away and ignored him.

"Boss, after dinner, make a call to Hongying and tell her that your dad and I are getting a divorce. Also, ask her to take the bicycle home; I need it first thing tomorrow morning."

Fearing that Su Hongying might push the bicycle to He Taohua, he specifically emphasized again that the bicycle should be taken home.

Boss Su nodded and said he understood.

Li Banxia thought for a moment, then simply sat down and continued eating. After finishing her meal, she asked Su Lao Er and Su Lao San to wash the dishes, and she went back to her room. Su Lao Da and his wife were about to go out to make a phone call.

Suddenly someone knocked on the courtyard gate.

"Li Banxia, ​​open the door."

The couple paused, exchanged a glance, and tacitly turned and took a few steps back.

Old Su called out a few times, but seeing no response from the courtyard, he became somewhat defensive. "Li Banxia, ​​stop pretending to be dead! Open the door now! My house is in the yard, why won't you let me in? Open the door!"

First, there was a knocking sound at the gate, followed by a loud kicking sound.

Knock knock knock.

"...Even if we're divorced, this yard was allocated to me by the auto parts factory. The one who should get out is you, Li Banxia, ​​not me, Su Youfu! Eldest brother, second brother, third brother, fourth brother, are you all dead? Open the door right now!"

Su Laosan poked his head out and called to Su Laoda, "Big Brother, shall we open it?"

The eldest son's wife tugged at Su the eldest, saying, "Brother Guo, we're on Mom's side. We can't open this door."

Boss Su pursed his lips and let out a long sigh.

"Then I'll call Hongying later."

The eldest son's wife pulled Su the eldest son back into the house.

Su Laosan blinked, clicked his tongue, and went into the kitchen to continue washing the dishes with Su Laoer. While washing, he asked Su Laoer, "Second brother, you didn't say anything just now. Do you want to stay with Mom or Dad?"

Su Lao Er frowned and glanced at him, "You really want them to get a divorce? If they get divorced, this family will fall apart!"

“…I know, but it’s no use telling me this. You have to talk to Mom.”

Su Laosan glanced disdainfully at the direction of the courtyard gate. "Didn't you hear what Mom said? She knows who Dad gave the money to. Dad is having an affair with that pretty widow. That's why Mom is angry. Think about it, if your wife is having an affair with another man, can you still live with her?"

"Su Fengtiao, do you want to die?!"

The veins on Su Lao Er's forehead throbbed as he glared angrily at Su Lao San.

Isn't he annoying enough?

After being scolded, Su Laosan suddenly realized and said, "Oh, I forgot, your Cui Yuxia went on blind dates with a few people behind your back. By the way, Mom's back too, why don't you go ask her..."

"I'm not going."

Su Lao Er was seething with anger. His mother knew perfectly well what Cui Yuxia had done, but deliberately kept it from him. Seeing how much he had embarrassed himself, he didn't want to be the first to back down.

Su Laosan let out a drawn-out "Eek," his disdain quite obvious.

"...Now you know why Mom didn't let you marry Cui Yuxia, right? You even got angry with Mom. If it weren't for Mom, the woman you married wouldn't be a wife, she'd be a bunch of cuckolds..."

"Su Feng Diao!"

Su Lao Er threw down the loofah sponge and raised his hand to hit Su Lao San.

Su Laosan crouched down and chuckled, "You can't hit it."

Su Lao Er laughed in anger.

He tilted his head, clenched his fists, and the cracking sound of his knuckles instantly echoed in the kitchen.

Su Laosan cried out and tried to dodge, but Su Laoer pounced on him and pinned him to the ground with a scream.

"Ah! Second brother, I was wrong..."

The two were playfully fighting in the kitchen, while outside in the yard, the sounds of Old Man Su kicking the door and cursing echoed.

Old Su kicked his feet so hard they were about to break, and his hands were red from slapping, but no one opened the door for him.

He was so angry that he cursed, "You bunch of ingrates! I've been supporting you all these years for nothing! I only make a little over a hundred yuan a month, and I'll get a pension when I retire. You lot, if you don't open the door for me, don't even think about spending a single penny of mine!"

Unable to concentrate on her homework due to the noise, Su Hongmei quietly asked Su Xiaosi.

"Fourth Brother, if Mom and Dad really get a divorce, who do you want to live with?"

Su Xiaosi ignored her.

Su Hongmei pouted, glanced at the banging courtyard gate, and mumbled indistinctly, "If only Dad would keep all his salary at home, Dad's salary is tens of dollars higher than Mom's..."

Upon hearing this, Su Xiaosi slightly raised her eyes and glanced at her.

The next day, just as dawn was breaking, Su Laoda got up and ran outside to call Su Hongying's in-laws' house. Her mother-in-law answered, and Su Laoda didn't mention his parents' divorce.

I only told her to ride the bicycle home, because Mom needed it urgently.

Grandma Su Hongying smiled and agreed.

As a result, Su Hongying returned empty-handed. As soon as she entered the door, she saw her eldest daughter-in-law setting out food on the table. She picked up her chopsticks, grabbed a large piece of egg, and stuffed it into her mouth. "I'm starving! Sister-in-law, you really know how to eat! You're making fried eggs so early in the morning!"

The eldest daughter-in-law glanced behind her and frowned. "Where's the bicycle?"

Boss Su looked over as well, "Didn't I call you to ride back?"

Su Hongying waved her hand.

“I can’t ride it back. My mother-in-law gave the bicycle to my brother-in-law. He’s dating someone recently and has to ride it to pick him up and drop him off every day.”

After saying that, she looked up and called to Li Banxia, ​​"Mom, could you let Jiefang ride our bike for a few days? We'll definitely return it after my brother-in-law gets married..."
