Meng Qiuju's mind was not on the snacks, because she didn't care about the food, what she cared about was the money.

She said to Ai Xiaoxia, "Xiaoxia, how much can you make in a day doing this business?"

Ai Xiaoxia naturally couldn't tell the truth: "Not much. I only make a few cents per bag. I can't make more than a few dollars a day."

Meng Qiuju curled her lips and said, "This is too little." Then she asked, "Do you have this money?"

At this time, Guan Mingyue heard the sound and came over from the west room. She rushed into the room and said to Meng Qiuju, "Mom, I saw Xiaoxia collect the money. I guarantee that the money is all with her."

Ai Xiaoxia looked at Guan Mingyue: "Just because I accepted the money, does that mean it's mine? It belongs to our family. I gave it all to my father-in-law."

Ai Laifu, with his mouth full of snack crumbs, heard that the money was not with Ai Xiaoxia. He said to Ai Xiaoxia unhappily, "Are you stupid? How can you give away the money you have earned? Can't you take it back to honor your parents?"

Ai Xiaoxia laughed when she heard this: "Are you stupid? Doesn't business have any costs? If we give you all the money from the sales, then we will have no capital and will stop doing this in the future?"

Guan Mingyue said from the side: "You are stupid. Don't you know to take back the money you earned and keep the capital to continue the business?"

Ai Xiaoxia looked at Guan Mingyue and taunted her, "I'm stupid, my in-laws are stupid too, everyone else is stupid but you're smart. We're in business not to make money, but to support you?"

Meng Qiuju listened to Ai Xiaoxia's tone and grumbled, "You stupid brat, how could you be so unreasonable? They're your brother and sister-in-law, your closest relatives. How come you don't understand? They're all doing this for your own good. If you don't live well in your in-laws' family, if they don't want you anymore, won't you be able to rely on your brother and sister-in-law? Don't you leave yourself a way out?"

Ai Xiaoxia reassured Meng Qiuju, "If I come back to live with my brother and sister-in-law, will they agree?"

Meng Qiuju knew she couldn't do that, but she wanted Ai Xiaoxia to get the money back, so she lied and said, "Why don't you agree? Your brother and sister-in-law really care about you. Xiaoxia, did your mother-in-law say something to instigate you? You weren't like this before. You were born by your mother, so how could your mother lie to you? Don't listen to what your mother-in-law says. There's no such thing as a mother-in-law and daughter-in-law as a mother-in-law, right?"

Ai Xiaoxia didn't follow Meng Qiuju's line of thought at all. Instead, she turned around and looked at Guan Mingyue with a smile: "Did you hear that? Be careful with your mother-in-law. How can a mother-in-law and daughter-in-law really get along? Right?"

Guan Mingyue's eyes were blinking, and she really started to think about it.

Meng Qiuju was furious. She wanted Ai Xiaoxia to be obedient, not to instigate the relationship between her and her daughter-in-law.

For the sake of money, she continued, "Xiaoxia, Mom is doing this for your own good. Do you think I asked you to take the money back for your brother? I did it for you. I even saved the betrothal gift for you. If you need it in the future, I'll give it to you."

Ai Xiaoxia really admired Meng Qiuju's nose for being like that mouth. She said whatever she wanted to say without feeling embarrassed at all. The betrothal gift was just not enough to build a new house, otherwise she would have to start building a house for her younger brother Ai Laibao and prepare to get married.

As they were talking, Ai Laibao came back. The last time Ai Xiaoxia came back home, he went to his girlfriend Zhang Juan's house. He just came back from Zhang Juan's house today. Now the two of them are in love and he is with Zhang Juan every day.

Although Ai Laibao is eighteen years old this year and has not reached the legal age, many people in rural areas hold their wedding first and then get a marriage certificate when they reach the legal age. Now Ai Laibao is waiting to build a house and marry Zhang Juan.

As soon as he entered the house and heard Meng Qiuju say that all the money was saved for Ai Xiaoxia, he was immediately furious and asked Meng Qiuju, "Mom, what do you mean? Are you going to give all the family money to Ai Xiaoxia, this money-loser? What are you thinking? I was wondering why you didn't build a house for me? Didn't you accept the betrothal money? So you were lying to me?"

Ai Xiaoxia couldn't help laughing. She was so lucky. When she was thirsty, someone gave her water. When she was sleepy, someone gave her a pillow. Although Ai Laibao was annoying, his appearance today was a great assist to the villain.

She deliberately said to Ai Laibao: "Come to think of it, I really misunderstood Mom before. I thought Mom loved you the most before. Look, we all misunderstood, didn't we?"

Ai Laibao pointed at Meng Qiuju like crazy: "What do you mean? You don't need your son to support you in your old age? You don't want grandchildren? I ask you, where's the money? If I can't marry Zhang Juan, I will die in front of you."

Meng Qiuju was so angry that his head was about to explode because of Ai Xiaoxia. He looked at Ai Laibao and said, "Are you stupid? Can't you tell the truth from lies? Your brother and sister-in-law are here. If I give all the money to my daughter, will they agree?"

Ai Laibao came in just now and was carried away by everyone's words in a daze. When he calmed down and thought about it, he realized that he had fallen into Ai Xiaoxia's trap.

He looked at Ai Xiaoxia angrily: "You've grown up. Is it because I haven't punished you for too long? I'll skin you alive." As he said that, he raised his hand and ran towards Ai Xiaoxia.

Ai Xiaoxia originally wanted to go back quickly, but the enemy was right in front of her, so she couldn't just run away like that. That wasn't her style.

She grabbed Ai Laibao's raised wrist with one hand and slapped him with the other hand: "This slap is a lesson for you as your elder sister. For so many years, I have allowed you to be disrespectful. I have been too tolerant of you."

Then he slapped her in the face again: "This slap was just for my own pleasure." She wanted to say that she was educating you on behalf of her parents, but when the words came to her lips, she felt that it was meaningless. Those parents had no intention of educating their children at all.

Ai Laibao was stunned by the two slaps and it took him a while to react. He shouted to Ai Laifu, "Brother, come on, hurry up and join us. We were also beaten by her last time. Let's take revenge together today."

Ai Lai Fu was really angry when he thought about what happened last time. He put down the snacks in his hand and came over. As he walked, he said to Meng Qiuju and Ai Weimin, "Dad, Mom, keep an eye on the window. Don't let this damn girl run away. If we don't teach her a lesson today, she will forget where we are."

Meng Qiuju was also very angry with Ai Xiaoxia, so she hurried over and locked the window on the kang. She was going to teach this girl a lesson today.

Although Ai Weimin didn't say anything, he obviously listened to his son and leaned towards the window.

There was a coldness in Guan Mingyue's eyes. She would not let Ai Xiaoxia go out easily today. She had to avenge the previous grudge.

Ai Xiaoxia always looked at the clock. Her biggest mistake today was to leave a backup plan. If she didn't go back in three hours, Lu Jingyuan would have to call Lu Jingshen. Wouldn't that cause trouble for Lu Jingshen?

So it was best to end the fight quickly and go home quickly. She immediately took a fighting stance and didn't plan to hold back.
