Tang Guifen refused to be hospitalized because she thought it was too expensive.
Su Man checked her and confirmed that there was no other discomfort. The doctor also said that it was nothing serious and she could go back and rest.
She hired an ox cart in town to help pull Tang Guifen back home.
Who knew that as soon as he entered the house, he heard Lin Ye telling others that she was not his wife.
Looking at the embarrassed expression of the man in the room, she smiled slightly.
"Hello, I'm Lin Ye's sister, and this is my brother."
Zheng Dabiao was about to lose the awkward smile on his face: "Okay, sister-in-law... Hello sister, I have something else to do, grandma, brother Ye, I'm leaving first."
He nodded and quickly walked out the door.
Lin Ye looked at the expression on Su Man's face and felt a little worried.
"Are you okay?"
Su Man looked indifferent: "What can happen to me? Life is so much better now with food and drink, don't you think? Brother!"
I don’t know if it’s Lin Ye’s illusion, but I always feel that this call of “brother” is not as sweet as before.
He wanted to say something when he saw Tang Guifen's face covered with tears, and his expression darkened.
"What's wrong? Who bullied you?"
Tang Guifen felt guilty and dared not speak.
Su Man patted her shoulder soothingly and told Lin Ye in detail how Su Meimei's family coaxed her grandmother to give her money.
Lin Ye frowned slightly after hearing this, but his tone was calm.
"If you lose money, you can earn it again. As long as you are safe, that's all that matters."
Tang Guifen covered her face and cried uncontrollably.
"How long will it take to earn that much money?"
"And what about Qiangzi and Hongxing's tuition?"
Su Man supported Tang Guifen and nodded in agreement.
"That's right, the money must be returned."
Tang Guifen was stunned and looked up at her.
"But, but that's your mother's home..."
Lin Ye didn't want to make things difficult for Su Man because of this matter.
"Forget it."
Su Man straightened her chest and waved her hand.
"That's my...brother's money. My brother's money is my money. I have to get it back."
"Grandma, you gave her a lot of money back then. Do you have any evidence?"
Tang Guifen thought about it carefully and took out a yellowed remittance slip from behind the stove. It was the money she had transferred at the end of last year, for fifty yuan.
“That’s the only one left.”
At that time, she thought that since she was a new daughter-in-law who had not yet married into the family, she could just spend the money and did not want to keep any savings.
Su Man took it, looked at it, and smoothed it out carefully.
"Okay, it's better than nothing. I'll go get the money back tomorrow."
——————
The next day, Su Man went out before dawn.
Before leaving, Lin Ye opened the door and gave her instructions.
"If you really don't want to come back, forget it. I have money and I won't let you starve."
Su Man waved her hand and said, "Don't worry, just look at me."
When she went out, she happened to meet Wang Daneng and took a ride to the town.
Instead of returning to the Su family, he went directly to the mayor's house.
When we arrived, it was just daybreak and the people who were working were still asleep.
Just as she was about to knock on the door, she ran into Su Meimei who was going to the vegetable garden to pick vegetables for breakfast.
The two met face to face. Su Meimei saw her face darken and quickly closed the door.
"Why are you bringing bad luck to my house so early in the morning? Don't you think you didn't embarrass enough people yesterday? Go away, get out of here."
Su Man curled her lips and glanced at the Zhao family.
"Is everyone at home here? They haven't woken up yet? It's perfect, I'm here to collect the debt so they can see it too."
Su Meimei laughed sarcastically as if she had heard a huge joke.
"Are you crazy? Or are you crazy about money? Why would the Zhao family owe you a debt?"
Su Man took out the remittance slip and shook it so that Su Meimei could see it clearly.
"What the Zhao family's daughter-in-law owes is what they owe. We have changed our marriage, and Lin Ye is your brother-in-law now. Brothers should settle accounts clearly. You can't take your brother-in-law's money and not pay it back, right?"
Su Meimei saw the remittance slip clearly, immediately understood what was going on, and looked angry.
"The old woman gave me this money willingly. Why should I pay it back?"
"Oh, then why did she give it to her?"
Su Man's words left Su Meimei speechless. Naturally, it was because the old woman was thinking that she would marry Lin Ye.
But it’s been so long since the incident happened, and now the marriage has changed. Why should she pay the money back?
Su Meimei gritted her teeth and moved closer to Su Man with her neck stiff.
"I don't care. She did this voluntarily. I don't have any money. If you have the guts, kill me! Come on!"
Su Man pushed her away in disgust and was about to open the door.
"Murder is against the law. You don't understand the law. I believe someone in the Zhao family does. I'll go talk to them."
The noise made by the two outside startled Zhao Huaguang who was brushing his teeth. He opened the door suspiciously.
He saw Su Man outside at a glance, and hurriedly wiped the foam from his mouth and smiled.
"Manman, you're here? Come sit inside? That's perfect, I have something to tell you too."
That gentle look made Su Meimei grit her teeth in hatred. She had been married to Zhao Huaguang for so many days, but he had always been indifferent to her.
After meeting Su Man, he seemed like a different person. If the two of them really get together again, the mayor’s daughter-in-law will have to be replaced!
Thinking of this, she hurried forward and took Su Man's hand.
"Hua Guang, something happened at home today, so Mannier and I went home for a while. I'll invite her to our house next time."
After saying that, he pulled Su Man out without saying anything.
"I'll give it to you, okay?"
Su Man nodded in satisfaction, not even bothering to look at Zhao Huaguang any more, and turned away.
After walking a long way and confirming that Zhao Huaguang had not caught up, Su Meimei angrily shook off Su Man's hand.
"I don't have any money now, so I'll write you an IOU first."
As for when to pay it back, that's up to her.
