"Hmph, Lu Qingyan, weren't you quite formidable back then?" Niu Li was now speaking with increasing confidence. "Why are you suddenly so weak now?"
Thinking about how Lu Qingyan was so arrogant and looked down on the whole family when she first came to the Niu family, Niu Li now has the urge to give everything back.
Lu Qingyan frowned and said, "Mother-in-law, this is a different time. Back then, Cai Liushi wasn't as powerful as she is now. How could I know what's wrong with her that she's so stubborn?"
Niu Li said: "In the final analysis, it's because you are not capable enough."
Lu Qingyan said angrily: "If you are capable, go ask her for money!"
Niu Li glanced at her and said, "You signed the contract with her, not me. If you ask me to ask her for the money, how could she possibly give it to me?"
Lu Qingyan said with a gloomy face, "You also know that this matter can only be handled by me?"
Niu Li poured a glass of water, took a sip, and said, "This is originally your business."
Lu Qingyan said: "Yes, it's my business, so why are you yelling?"
Niu Li glared at me and said, "You are the daughter-in-law of our Niu family. What's wrong with me controlling you? As a mother-in-law, can't I control you?"
Lu Qingyan's expression also turned extremely hostile, with a fierce glint in her eyes. She said, "So what if you're my mother-in-law? Without me, you wouldn't even have food to eat! Now that you have food to eat, you dare to be rude to me?"
Seeing that the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law were about to quarrel again, Niu Jiashi hurried over to mediate, saying, "Mom, Yan'er, if you have anything to say, just talk it out nicely! Don't argue, arguing won't solve the problem. Why don't you sit down and have a good chat! Yes, have a good chat! We are all family, there is no need to argue!"
Seeing that he was stuck in the middle, Lu Qingyan snorted and turned her head away.
Niu Li also snorted and turned her head to the other side.
"Yan'er, let's go to the room and talk." Niu Jiashi grabbed his wife's wrist.
"What's there to talk about?" Lu Qingyan didn't give him a good look.
At this moment, Niu Li said, "Lv Qingyan, I can give you a message."
Seeing that she didn't turn around, she continued, "Cai Junze might have some money on him. The last time I went to Xianjing Town, I overheard people discussing it. They said someone had compensated Cai Junze with hundreds of silver notes."
She tried to ask Cai Junze for money last time but failed, so she planned to let Lu Qingyan try.
"Is this true?" Lu Qingyan turned around.
If true, this is indeed valuable news.
"Of course it's true!" Niu Lishi would not talk about the incident of her going to see Cai Junze. "If it wasn't true, who would make up such a thing?"
Lu Qingyan was silent for a moment.
Although they are not on good terms with each other, there is no need for the mother-in-law to give her false news.
After all, giving her false information would not do any good to the mother-in-law.
"Okay, I understand." Lu Qingyan nodded.
Niu Li looked at her and said nothing more.
I don’t know what I’m thinking.
Seeing that their relationship had eased, Niu Jiashi couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.
It was quite difficult for him to be caught between his mother and daughter-in-law.
Two days later.
Cai Junze wanted to go to the county town to find Li Fangming to talk about his recent depression.
As a result, he was stopped on the road by Lu Qingyan and several brothers of the Lu family.
"Lü Qingyan, what are you doing?"
Cai Junze hasn't seen Lu Qingyan for some time.
"Cai Junze, you have owed me four months' support, almost five months'. When do you plan to pay it to me?" Lu Qingyan came to him aggressively, not bothering to exchange pleasantries, and asked him directly for money.
"I've already said that the contract is invalid, why should I give you money?" Cai Junze frowned.
"I don't care whether it's valid or not. Anyway, if you sign it, you have to pay!" Lu Qingyan said firmly, "Besides, Yang'er is your son too. Isn't it only right that you provide him with support?"
"I told you, if you don't want to raise Yang'er and find it tiring, you can just return him to me!" Cai Junze said, "Why make it difficult for yourself and me? Is this fun?"
Lu Qingyan stared at him coldly, not responding to his words. Instead, she said, "I heard that you got some money recently? And it's a considerable amount."
Needless to say, it was Niu Li who told her, so Cai Junze was not surprised and said, "Yes, it is true, but I have already handed over the money. If you want it, go ask my mother for it. I don't have any money on me."
After saying that, he was about to leave.
However, he was stopped by the brothers of the Lu family.
"What else do you want to do?" He glared at the brothers of the Lu family.
One of the Lu family brothers said, "If you don't pay me today, don't even think about leaving!"
Cai Junze's face darkened, and he glanced at them, saying, "Why, I won't give it to you, but you still want to snatch it away?"
Lu Qingyan said, "Cai Junze, our family is very poor now. Without money, Yang'er will naturally not have a good life! As a father, do you want Yang'er to live a hard life with us in the future? Think about what the Niu family lived like in the past! So, what kind of life will it be in the future! In this way, Yang'er will have to live such a life too! Is this what you want?"
Cai Junze glanced at her and said, "After the divorce, I gave you fifty taels of silver. According to the expenses of most people in this area, this is enough for you to spend for ten years! And yet, it's only been a year, and the money is gone? Moreover, I said at the beginning that the money was for Yang'er! How could Yang'er spend so much? Who are you trying to fool? I think your family does nothing but eat, drink and have fun, with only spending money and no income, and finally all the money is gone! You deserve it!"
