Sister-in-law Ye said bluntly, "You don't believe me, so let's go to your sister's house and confront her face to face!"
"Okay, I'll go find out for myself." Wang Ge gritted his teeth and said, "If what you said is true, I will apologize to you in front of everyone!"
"Go ahead, I'll wait for your apology!" Lin Yumei's attitude became even tougher.
So they went to Xiao Wang's house again. At the door, the stall that had just been kicked over by the debt collector had been put away and the door was closed, as if nothing had happened. Wang Ge went forward and knocked on the door, but there was no sound in the yard for a long time.
"No one's home?"
Mrs. Ye sneered, "I guess they thought you were a debt collector, so they didn't dare to open the door!"
Wang Ge called out, "Little sister? Are you home?"
After a while, Xiao Wang finally opened the courtyard door from the inside.
Seeing his brother, he smiled a little guilty and said, "Brother, what good day is today? Why did I blow you to my door?
"Why didn't you tell me in advance? I should have treated you to a delicious meal."
Seeing her like this, Mrs. Ye San became furious and mocked her.
"What? Are you planning to use Yumei's money to treat them to a meal? No wonder it's the peddler's wife. She's really calculating!"
Xiao Wang felt guilty in front of Wang Ge, but she did not take Lin Yumei and the friends she brought with her seriously.
"Hey, whose dog is barking here?
"Let me advise you, this is the capital, not your country place, so it's better not to meddle in other people's affairs!"
When Lin Yumei heard that Xiao Wang dared to scold Mrs. Ye San, she became even angrier than if she had been wronged herself.
"Don't go too far! I'll tear your mouth apart!"
Mrs. Ye quickly reached out and pulled Mrs. Ye San back, whispering, "Let them solve their own problems."
Wang Ge was suspicious when he saw his sister's attitude. He couldn't help asking, "What's going on? I heard from Yumei that Ge Yurong is a gambler. Not only does he owe loan sharks, but he also constantly asks Mom for money. Is this true?"
"If you still regard me as your brother, just tell me the truth, and there will be room for resolution."
After hearing what Wang Ge had said, Xiao Wang softened her tone, her eyes reddened, and she sobbed, "Brother, my life is so miserable—"
"A few years ago, the head of the family was taken to gamble and became addicted. I don't want to ask my mother for money, but our family is really struggling to make ends meet.
"If you don't pay me back, the debt collectors are going to take me and my child away to pay off the debt. Brother, can you bear to just watch us like this?"
Hearing his sister tearfully admitting this, Wang Ge was shocked at first, and then a wave of sadness welled up in his heart.
I thought my sister and brother-in-law were living a good life as the mistress of the house in the capital, but who would have thought that they had become so miserable in recent years.
"It's all my fault. I've been so busy working to make money these past few years that I haven't had time to care about you. I didn't know you were living this kind of life now."
Seeing the brother and sister hugging each other and crying, Lin Yumei was so angry that her hands began to tremble.
"Stop talking nonsense! You'll say anything to gain your brother's sympathy!
"Look at you, you are wearing gold and silver, and your clothes are all made of fine materials.
“Any one of them is worth more than me from head to toe.
"You can't eat? It's just because you think your brother and I are easy to bully!"
Little Wang had calmed Wang Ge down, but Lin Yumei exposed her mistake. Her face darkened immediately: "I'm talking to my brother, what does it have to do with you?
"Most of the family's money is earned by my brother, and I'm his biological sister, so what's wrong with him spending some on me?
"Why didn't you say no when I went to my parents' house every now and then to get something?
"Now you're starting to separate from me. Does that mean you're the only one taking advantage and don't want to give anything in return?"
Seeing the disdainful expression on Xiao Wang's face, Lin Yumei raised her finger and pointed at her, so angry that she couldn't speak.
Finally, Sister-in-law Ye couldn't help but stepped forward and said, "Who do you think is you? Yumei is now following my eldest sister-in-law to prepare a banquet. The host family is all high-ranking officials and nobles.
Your brother may not earn as much as our Yumei now!"
"Everyone can brag!" After saying this, Xiao Wang saw Wang Ge lower his head, and her heart suddenly skipped a beat.
Could it be that my sister-in-law really earns more than my brother now?
Wang Ge felt a surge of grievance after hearing this, but since Mrs. Ye was telling the truth, he had no way of refuting it. As luck would have it, just when the atmosphere was at its most awkward, Ge Yurong suddenly whistled and entered the courtyard.
He had just asked his mother-in-law for money, but when he saw Wang Ge and his wife, he didn't feel guilty at all. He nodded coldly, said hello and was about to go into the house.
Little Wang anxiously grabbed him and asked, "Have you paid the money? They came to our house again today and made trouble. They took all the stalls at the door..."
Ge Yurong didn't wait for Xiao Wang to finish her words, and shook her hand away and said, "Pay back the money, pay back the money, do you have anything else to say besides paying back the money?
"Look at you crying like that every day! You're almost ruining all my good fortune!"
Little Wang didn't care that her brother and sister-in-law were right beside her. She lowered her voice and asked, "Didn't you go to my mother to ask for money? You promised me that you would pay back the loan sharks when you got the money!"
"Does your mother have any money? It's not even enough to pay the interest!
"Stop talking nonsense! I'm feeling good today, maybe I can turn things around!"
"Do you still want to gamble?" Xiao Wang raised her voice instantly.
"Why are you shouting!" Ge Yurong raised his hand and slapped Xiao Wang as usual.
