Chapter 72 Asking for Fun

"Mom, sister, please come in and sit down." Chen Guilan hurriedly invited the two of them into the house. She hadn't been back to the village for a long time, and she was still a little at a loss when she suddenly faced Xu Yuxiang and Su Xiumei. She had just regained a little confidence, and in an instant she became the humble and submissive young wife in their eyes.

When the mother and daughter entered the house, Su Jiaojiao was squatting on the ground counting, her face covered in dust. She had to arrange the sizes of the down jackets hanging on the wall from large to small, and there was no room to step in the room.

Su Xiumei glanced at Su Jiaojiao with disdain, then dragged Xu Yuxiang out. She asked Chen Guilan, "Guilan, did Houli come to see you?"

She suspected that the mother and daughter were deliberately playing the victim in front of Su Houli.

This is a snack street. It's a bitch. It's a wonder you can make money by selling clothes!

"I've been here..." Chen Guilan stood at the door, as if she had done something wrong. Su Jiaojiao sorted out the clothes in the room and took out the clothes from the snakeskin bag. She loved selling tailgating goods like this. The prices were cheap and they sold quickly. Although they seemed insignificant, they were actually very profitable. She took over their conversation and asked Su Xiumei, "What's going on?"

Su Xiumei got angry when she saw Su Jiaojiao. She chose to come at this time because she thought Su Jiaojiao should go to school. Who knew that she forgot that the school was on winter vacation and this girl was actually at home. If she had known this, she would not have come.

But an aunt still has to have her dignity: "Children should not interrupt when adults are talking."

"If you're talking to someone else, I promise not to interrupt." Su Jiaojiao bent down and dragged the clothes stall out, saying confidently, "If you're talking to my mom, it's the same as talking to me."

"Su Jiaojiao, you're the one who caused all the trouble between your father and your mother," Su Xiumei said confidently. "Don't play innocent. What good will it do you if they get divorced?"

"What do you mean I caused it?" Su Jiaojiao retorted rudely, "Did I introduce the mistress to him? He has a bad style, and you blame me. I was very kind not to report him to their company."

"Stop talking nonsense!" Su Xiumei subconsciously looked around and whispered, "We're on the street, don't say such nonsense."

Then she walked up to Chen Guilan and asked, "Guilan, are you and Houli really going to divorce?"

Xu Yuxiang carefully looked at the clothes piled on the ground. Wow, they looked very good, just right for this season. She picked up this piece and looked at it, then picked up that piece and looked at it. The materials and styles were all good.

"Sister, I'm not the one who wants to divorce him, he's the one who wants to divorce me..." Chen Guilan was still a little scared when facing the aggressive Su Xiumei. She even forgot how to sell it when someone came to ask the price. It was Su Jiaojiao who came forward and called her, "Mom, come over and sell the goods. I'll talk to my aunt."

"Jingjiao, I'll bring you two stools." Chen Xiaoqing saw that they had guests and tactfully handed over two small stools. Su Jingjiao took them and said, "Thank you, Sister Xiaoqing."

"We won't sit." Su Xiumei glanced down at the two dirty stools with a look of disgust. "Your grandma and I have something to say to your mom, so it's not for you."

"Xiumei, this dress looks good on me." Xu Yuxiang's eyes sparkled as she grabbed a black vest and tried it on herself. Chen Guilan said hurriedly, "Mom, if you like it, pick out a few more."

"Okay, I'll pick some more." Xu Yuxiang continued to rummage through the clothes on the stall. All she could see were the clothes, and she had forgotten what she was doing there. Su Xiumei felt helpless and walked up to Chen Guilan and continued, "Guilan, I think you two really need to sit down and have a good chat about your and Houli's matter."

"We've talked about it..." Chen Guilan finally regained her composure and said calmly, "As long as he agrees to the conditions I stated, I'll agree to divorce him."

Qin Shuang said that we must grasp the key points in everything.

What happened between her and Su Houli was between them and had nothing to do with anyone else, such as her mother-in-law or sister-in-law.

In other words, she cannot be influenced by people like her mother-in-law and sister-in-law to change the course of the whole thing, nor can she give in or change her mind.

"Then don't even think about it. The house and the land belong to our Su family." Su Xiumei didn't expect these words to come from Chen Guilan's mouth. She had only been out for a few days, but she seemed like a different person.

Su Jiaojiao was always paying attention to the conversation between Su Xiumei and Chen Guilan. She stepped forward and said, "If that's what you think, then my mother won't divorce. We've been used to it for so many years anyway."

"If you don't want to divorce, then don't. No one is forcing you to divorce." Xu Yuxiang finally raised her head from the pile of clothes. She was wearing a black vest and holding three or four clothes in her hands. She said excitedly to Su Xiumei, "Xiumei, what do you think of these clothes?"

"Grandma, these are our clothes, not my aunt's." Su Jiaojiao reminded her, "These clothes in your hand are worth a hundred yuan in total. Since you are my grandma, I will give you a discount. Eighty yuan will be enough."

"You girl, you're asking me for money?" Xu Yuxiang rolled her eyes. "Ask your mother. Will she agree?"

"Mom, just take it if you like." Chen Guilan certainly wouldn't take her money. Su Xiumei looked at the clothes in Xu Yuxiang's hands and said with a stern face, "Mom, don't forget what you are here for."

"Alas, a grown-up son is no longer under his mother's control. I really can't control their affairs." Xu Yuxiang suddenly changed sides and continued to fiddle with the clothes in her hands. "If you can control it, then control it. If not, let's leave."

Su Xiumei: “…”

She knew that her mother and her two brothers always only thought about themselves.

If that's the case, why should she care about this matter?

Su Xiumei said nothing, just pushed her bicycle and left.

The house and land in the family can be given to whoever wants... Anyway, she has no share.

Xu Yuxiang caught up with her clothes in her arms: "Xiumei, wait for me."

"Xiumei, why are you here?" Li Li came towards them pushing her bicycle. She turned around and saw Su Jiaojiao, and said in surprise, "Xiao Su, you are selling goods here!"

"Sister Li Li." Su Jiaojiao came over with a smile on her face. "Are you not working today?"

"Oh, we're in the middle shift." Li Li glanced at the pile of clothes on the floor, her eyes lighting up. "These clothes are pretty good. Let me pick a few."

Then he said to Su Xiumei, "Xiumei, wait for me."

Su Xiumei had no choice but to stop far away and wait for her.

Xu Yuxiang showed the clothes she had picked out to Su Xiumei and said excitedly, "Xiumei, look, I picked out two more for you. They're much better than the clothes at the market."

Su Xiumei stared straight ahead with an expressionless face.

If Xu Yuxiang wasn't her mother, she wouldn't want to know her.

What made her even more upset was that her visit to Chen Guilan this time was equivalent to not coming at all, and instead she ended up making herself unhappy.

"Xiao Su, why don't you go to the market to sell your goods?" Li Li chatted with Su Jiaojiao while choosing clothes. "Every time I go there, I think I'll run into you. One time I ran into an old lady, and she said you came to the city to study. I didn't expect to see you here. I have something to talk to you about!"
