Xu Qiang never expected that the second branch of the Xu family would be so ruthless. Not only did they sell their daughter for fifty yuan and ten catties of meat, but they also wanted to sever ties with the family. It was unheard of!

It is said that even tigers do not eat their cubs, let alone humans?

Therefore, the human heart is the most poisonous thing in the world.

To make severing ties seem justifiable, the young mistress spent the entire day badmouthing Xu Xialian and her in-laws.

They said they were feudal remnants of the old society, otherwise they wouldn't have the idea of ​​marrying a gay man's wife. They also said that Xu Xialian was a slut who willingly became a gay man's wife and had lived a decadent life in the mountains for the past few years, completely forgetting her biological parents.

He even claimed that he was kept in the dark, otherwise he wouldn't have made such a thought error.

Her daughter came from her womb, so how could she not love her own daughter? She dreamed of her daughter marrying well, so that her family could also help out.

The young grandmother's acting is always excellent. At first, everyone was angry that she pushed her daughter into a pit of fire, but after the young grandmother's tearful account, the onlookers' feelings gradually shifted. After all, everyone has daughters at home, and it's easy to project their own emotions and thoughts onto her.

Ever since Xu Xinning learned that Xu Mingyang had been switched with someone else, she has grown increasingly disgusted with the second wife's family. She believes that these kinds of relatives are most likely to stab you in the back.

After arriving at the brigade headquarters, the great-grandmother started her performance again. Xu Xinning couldn't stand it anymore, so she asked the great-uncle, "Great-uncle, judging from what the great-grandmother said, you must care a lot about Second Aunt, right?"

Grandpa didn't know what Xu Xinning meant, but he still replied, "What are you saying, child? What parent wouldn't care about their child?"

Xu Xinning: "Hmm! I can see that now, otherwise Grandma wouldn't be so disappointed in me."

Grandpa seemed to have finally found an excuse and immediately replied, "My daughter is so sensible. Cultured people are just different. Your grandma is just disappointed in her."

Xu Xinning: "Parents' hearts are always full of love and worry! I think my second aunt will understand eventually. Grandpa, you know I cured my second aunt's husband's illness, right?"

Grandpa: "I've heard about it. I never imagined that Nannan's medical skills would be so superb. She's truly an honor for our Xu family!"

Xu Xinning: "He is not as noble and virtuous as my great-grandfather."

Grandpa was overjoyed by Xu Xinning's words, "I don't deserve it, I don't deserve it, I'll follow the Party's instructions."

Xu Xinning: "That's why I say Grandpa is so enlightened. Grandpa, to be honest, Uncle Xiao'er's medical bills are still outstanding. I know that with your level of understanding, you definitely wouldn't let the medical station have an empty account. Besides, Grandpa's family is one of the best in Xujia Village. It wouldn't look good if people knew that a family like ours had an empty account, not to mention it would be a loss of face. Grandpa, don't you agree?"

If Grandpa still doesn't realize that Xu Xinning is digging a hole for him, then all those years of eating have been for nothing.

He clenched his fists, certain that if he didn't pay this debt today, all the groundwork his wife had laid would have been for nothing.

Grandpa: "How much do you owe?"

Xu Xinning gave the old man a big smile and said, "It's not much, only one hundred and twenty yuan. But then again, it's fortunate that I can treat him. If we had gone to the county hospital, it would have cost three or four hundred yuan. You should know about my second uncle's condition back then, right?"

The old man was so angry he gritted his teeth. In the morning, they didn't want to lend him money, which was why his wife came up with so many excuses. He never expected that he would have to pay for it himself.

The brigade headquarters was noisy, and Xu Xinning was afraid that the old man would turn around and renege on his promise, so she quickly grabbed paper and pen and wrote an IOU for the old man to sign.

In those days, 120 yuan was not a small amount, so it was impossible to keep such a large sum of money in one's pocket.

Just as Xu Xinning finished this task, Xu Qiang's task was also nearing completion.

The entire time, it was just the young grandmother talking. Xu Xialian kept her head down the whole time. Her heart was dead, so she didn't care about getting hurt.

After the matter was settled, the young grandmother finally breathed a sigh of relief, turned around and left the brigade headquarters cursing, without even giving Xu Xialian a glance.

When the old man stood up, Xu Xinning waved the IOU. The old man, with his hands behind his back, said to Xu Xinning, "Come on!"

Xu Xinning immediately followed, not forgetting to give Yang Chunqin a wink.

Yang Chunqin found her daughter and father-in-law's behavior today very strange. One of them was someone who never liked gossip, but she actually came to deal with the matter of severing ties with her husband. Moreover, she was talking to the second wife about something in the middle of the process, and now she was acting mysteriously with the second wife. She didn't know what she was up to. The other one just sat there without saying a word, like a pillar of strength.

Xu Xinning went home with the second wife and easily received the 120 yuan. After receiving the money, she tore up the IOU without saying a word and left.

Grandma was heartbroken about the 120 yuan, and kept complaining to Grandpa at home. Xu Xinning could still hear Grandpa's angry roar even after she had walked a long way.

It seems that this 120 yuan really ripped out their hearts!

When Xu Xinning returned to the medical station, Xu Xialian was feeding porridge to her second aunt's husband.

Although Xu Xinning's soul has memories of ancient times, she is not as disgusted with wives of gay men as people in this era. Her aunt in her previous life kept many male concubines, all of whom were outstanding in appearance.

My mother often said that if men can have three wives and four concubines, why can't women have two wives on each side?

Therefore, she didn't mind that her aunt kept many male concubines, nor was she surprised that her father and mother were monogamous for life. To put it bluntly, it was just a difference in values.

Upon seeing Xu Xinning enter, Xu Xialian stood up uncomfortably. For some reason, Xu Xialian felt a kind of pressure emanating from her niece, and she seemed to be too afraid to look her in the eye.

As soon as Xu Xinning entered, she handed 120 yuan to Xu Xialian: "Keep it. Uncle Xiao Er needs to replenish his health, and there are many places where he will need money."

Xu Xialian gripped the bowl tightly in her hands, her voice trembling as she said, "I...we...how can we take your money! We can't accept this money."

Xu Xinning: "This is not my money. I swindled it from my great-uncle. I said it was for medical expenses. I hope you won't let it slip."

Xu Xialian's tears started falling again, and she choked out, "Thank you!"

Xu Xinning: "They owe you this, and you still think I haven't asked for enough."

Xu Xialian's man said, "Thank you! You are all good people."

Xu Xinning: "I will treat my second aunt well from now on."

Xu Xialian's man: "We will."
