Chapter 14 Dad, am I that cheap?



Jiang Yuting buried her head in Li Yiyi's lower abdomen, an uncontrollable smile playing on her lips.

My daughter is so good.

Li Laoda's lips curled into a smile. With a beautiful wife and an obedient daughter, he'd be asking for trouble by going to see Wang Yiting.

"Third brother, stop talking nonsense. Tell me how to solve this. If all else fails, I'll send Li Fuyi to a special place to manage her, so you won't misbehave and let her continue to harm people when she grows up."

Li Fuyi was already half-dead in his hands, her face so swollen she was unrecognizable, but Boss Li still held her up without a shred of mercy.

His world revolves around only two people: his wife and his daughter. Everyone else is disregarded.

"Dad, no, Grandma, I don't want to go."

She knew that place; it was for underage criminals. People from the production team had come to warn her about it, and she didn't want to go.

"no."

Without even thinking about it, Old Mrs. Li knew there was no way she would agree; Li Fuyi was her darling.

"Boss, when you sent Fu Bao in, did you think about what would happen to her afterward? Her reputation will be ruined when she comes out. How will she find a good family?"

"What's it to me? She's not my daughter."

Boss Li is covered in thorns; not a single one of them is agreeable.

"Mother, are you saying you want to marry Wang Yiting to me so I can be Li Fuyi's father? That won't do. I won't take anyone but my wife. You'd better give up on that idea."

Old Mrs. Li wanted nothing more than to beat Li the eldest to death with a broom. What kind of talk was that? Wang Yiting was the perfect daughter-in-law she had carefully chosen for Li the third son. She was favored in the family and wouldn't hold him back.

Her face turned ashen with anger; Old Mrs. Li didn't want to hear another word from Li the eldest.

"Boss, tell me what you want."

He's just as shameless and greedy as ever, always trying to squeeze things out of her.

"Mom, you understand me best. Five unity notes and one cloth ration coupon."

Five ten-yuan bills, fifty yuan? Dad, am I that cheap?

Li Yiyi was furious. Li Fuyi wanted her dead, and she was only offering fifty yuan? Wasn't that a huge loss?

Old Mrs. Li and Li Laosan were also against it.

"No way, why don't you just rob someone of those five ten-yuan bills?"

Seeing that Old Master Li remained unmoved, Old Lady Li tried to appeal to his emotions.

"Eldest brother, you know our family situation. Fourth brother is studying in the city. Finding a job and getting married will cost money. We have many sons, and the boys are so young that they'll eat us out of house and home. Five ten-yuan bills have already taken up more than half a year's savings. Can you see if you can reduce the amount a bit?"

Old Mrs. Li was filled with worry. If she could do it all over again, she would rather she had never given birth to her eldest son, Li.

He was taken away by his mother when he was little, and even after growing up, he's not close to her. It's not that she didn't want to raise him; it's just that he's physically weak, no wonder he had another sickly child.

"Big brother, Mom is right. We're all family, so some friction is to be expected. Besides, your daughter is alright. Let's just let this go. I'll take better care of Fubao from now on."

"Calculate? My foot! It's so easy talking when the knife's not in your hand."

"Dad, go! Beat this shameless bastard to death!"

Another uneasy feeling crept in. Li felt like he was being treated like a dog. If it weren't for the inappropriate setting, would his daughter have said something?

Close the door, unleash the dogs!!!

"hehe"

"What my family is like is none of my business. Like I said, he's not my son. If we can't reach an agreement, then we won't talk anymore."

Li Laoda picked up Li Fuyi and walked outside, pretending to take her to where she needed to go.

"Boss, put Fu Bao down."

The person in charge has finally arrived. Old Master Li looked at Old Man Li, then noticed Li Jiamin and the head of the Li family beside him; it seemed they were the ones who had summoned Old Man Li.

"I can leave it, but what about the money?"

Yes, where's the money?

We won't release them without money; we'll release them if you pay. We are honest people and don't engage in fraudulent transactions.

Li Yi stood up straight, his small frame strutting with an air of pride and arrogance that made Jiang Yuting burst into laughter.

"Boss, does our family really have to make things so ugly?"

Old Li felt a pang of sadness, not for the predicament his eldest son was in, but because he felt the family wasn't as peaceful as it seemed.

“Dad, Li Fuyi tried to kill my daughter with scissors. Was it her or me who caused this embarrassment? Don’t tell me she’s young and doesn’t know any better. I can’t stand hearing that.”

"If that's really how you see it, there's nothing I can do. Who knows when I might stab someone with a knife? Don't blame me, after all, I'm still young to you, just a child."

Strike the snake at its vital point; Boss Li knew exactly how to handle Old Man Li.

He gasped, remembering the childish remarks his eldest son had made last time. He swallowed the words he was about to say, daring not to utter another.

"Old woman, get the money."

"Old man."

Old Mrs. Li didn't want to give it, and Old Mr. Li turned his face away. What could he do if she didn't give him the money? Could he really just watch as his eldest son sent Li Fuyi to the place under management, thus tarnishing the reputation of the Li family members and the head of the Li family?

"Dad, money, I need money."

From now on, I don't want gold anymore; I want money. Money is everything.

When Old Mrs. Li came out with the money, Li Yiyi's eyes were so narrowed they were practically slits.

Old Li found it amusing; why was his daughter so fond of money?

“My dear daughter, you’ve suffered so much. Here, take this money.”

Knowing that Li Yiyi had his own secret stash of money, Boss Li gave all his money to Li Yiyi.

It's good that you like money; the first requirement for a son-in-law should be that he's rich.

The onlookers' faces were contorted in disbelief. Li Yiyi was unharmed and received five large coins, while Li Fuyi, despite being injured in the face and feet, received nothing. Who was she trying to spite?
