"I'm going to buy a chicken to kill. I recently made a lot more money from delivering goods. Honey, what do you want to eat? Dad will get it for you."
Seeing that his daughter didn't say anything more, Mr. Song got up to leave.
Song Yanzhi quickly pulled him aside and said, "Dad, no need, we can just eat something simple."
Mr. Song sighed: "You've always been frugal since you were little, reluctant to eat or wear anything nice. Now that you're finally home, you still want to save money for me. If you keep this up, I won't dare let you come back in the future."
After saying that, he looked at his wife and said, "Honey, go buy it. I suddenly remembered that I have something to talk to Xiao Pei about. Oh, and buy some candy for the kids, the good stuff."
When Li Yuehua heard that they needed to kill a chicken and buy milk candy, she felt a little distressed. However, before she could speak, her husband glared at her. She subconsciously looked at her daughter, but when she saw that her daughter wasn't looking at her, she felt sad again.
Will my daughter think that I wouldn't even kill a chicken for her to eat?
Li Yuehua went to buy chicken and sugar, while Song Yanzhi went into the kitchen to watch the fire.
Song's father and Pei Yuchen were talking.
Song's father asked him, "How have you been these past few years?"
Pei Yuchen said in a low voice, "Everything is fine."
Mr. Song sneered, "You're doing well, but my daughter and grandson have suffered a lot. Her mother went to see her a while ago, and she was sick in bed with no one to take care of her. She used to be such a chubby child, look what your Pei family has done to her!"
I thought my daughter was reliable since she married into the city and was a soldier.
But to my surprise, my daughter's life became more and more difficult.
Pei Yuchen's eyes were complicated, and he did not refute anything. "Yes, it was my oversight. I thought that if I sent money back, she and the child would be better off."
“What can you do with that little money? Her mother only visits once a year. She’s always wearing old clothes and can’t even afford a new one. She says she lives in the city, but she’s not as well off as she is in the countryside.”
The more he talked, the angrier Song's father became.
She felt that her daughter had suffered a great injustice in the Pei family.
Pei Yuchen paused.
The money he sent back wasn't a lot, but it was definitely not a small amount either. It wasn't enough for Song Yanzhi to wear gold and silver, but it was certainly enough for him to eat and dress well.
It sounds so tragic, completely inconsistent with the contents of the letter.
Just as he was about to speak, he saw Mr. Song sigh, pull out two hundred yuan from his pocket, and stuff it into his hand, saying, "I originally wanted to give it directly to my daughter, but if she saw me giving her money, she definitely wouldn't accept it, so I'm giving it to you. I've always trusted my daughter's judgment, so I'm giving you another chance this time. I hope you won't let me down. I don't expect you to be exceptionally good to her, but at least don't let her suffer or feel wronged, and help take good care of Xiaobao."
The fact that her daughter could so casually mention divorce is enough to show that her situation has deteriorated to a very bad degree.
But he thought that perhaps it was because Pei Yuchen was not at home that she was bullied by her in-laws.
Now that Pei Yuchen is back, if he returns and still makes his daughter suffer, then there's really no point in the two of them continuing their marriage.
He gave the money to Pei Yuchen as both a test and a last chance.
Pei Yuchen paused for a moment, then refused to accept it.
“Dad, I know I made Yanzhi and the child suffer before, and she is still angry. But don’t worry, I will do my best to make it up to Xiaobao and Yanzhi, and I will not let them live like that again.”
"I can't accept this money. Although I've adopted two children, don't worry, I will never let them suffer any financial hardship."
Seeing the seriousness in his eyes, which seemed genuine, Song's father finally looked away and said calmly, "If life weren't truly unbearable, who would think of divorce in this day and age? I don't want my daughter to live that kind of life either. You'd better keep your word."
Pei Yuchen was not angry at his father-in-law's warning and agreed.
His eyes held a thoughtful look.
He could roughly guess why Song Yanzhi resented him so much.
If Song Yanzhi didn't lie, then there's only one person who did.
Pei Yuchen's expression darkened.
