Lin Ran actually didn't want to talk about her relationship with Shi Yan in public. She wasn't that shameless.
The reason I spoke just now was because I didn't want Shi Yan's feelings to be let down.
But who would have thought it would turn out like this. Seeing that Shen Wenfang and Aunt Shen Si were about to quarrel over her and Shi Yan, she immediately spoke up to change the subject.
"Oh, Grandpa, Grandma, Mom and Dad, I just overheard the conversation between those people when I went out. They seem to be running a private gambling house."
Sure enough, as soon as these words were spoken, everyone's attention was immediately diverted.
"What? A private gambling house?"
Everyone looked at each other, as if they suddenly thought of something, and then they all looked at Shen Lao Er.
Old Man Shen reacted quickly and didn't care about maintaining his image in front of Shi Yan. He picked up the stick again and rushed towards Old Man Shen.
"I'll beat you to death, you evil creature! Tell me, did you gamble away all that money you owed?"
Shen Lao Er, who thought he had escaped a disaster, said: "..."
No, this matter is not over yet?
Why did the fire suddenly burn me again?
Not only that, he also exposed his own past. God wants him to die!
Seeing his guilty look, what else could Old Man Shen not understand?
He immediately swung the stick and hit Shen Lao Er.
"I'll beat you to death, you evil creature! Why do you have to learn something else and follow others to gamble? Is that something you can touch?
No wonder you owe so much money all of a sudden!
I'll beat you to death!
Let you gamble!
Do you know how many people have lost their families because of gambling?
Do you also want to see our Shen family like this?
I must beat you to death today to prevent you from causing trouble for the family again!"
Shen Laoer was beaten so hard that he screamed and ran around the yard holding his butt in pain.
"Dad, I was wrong. I will never gamble again. I really won't gamble anymore. Please stop beating me."
This time, even though Old Mrs. Shen felt distressed, she did not step forward to help stop Old Man Shen.
It's really true that gambling is something you really shouldn't get involved in.
If I don’t subdue the second brother today, what will I do if he goes to gamble again next time?
By then, the loss may not be just two hundred yuan.
No matter how much she loves her youngest son, she would never be confused about such a thing.
Not only that, she also closed the gate.
Shen Laoer, who had originally planned to escape and hide for a few days, suddenly widened his eyes when he saw this, as if he had been struck by lightning.
"Mom, didn't you see that Dad was going to beat me to death? Why didn't you save me?"
Old Mrs. Shen hardened her heart:
"Your dad was right this time. Let's see if you will gamble again in the future!"
Seeing that even Old Lady Shen was not willing to protect him, Old Second Shen had no choice but to turn around and continue begging Old Man Shen for mercy.
"Dad, I really won't go there again, I promise!
I lost over two hundred this time. I've learned my lesson and will definitely not dare to go there again."
After all, Old Man Shen was old. After chasing Old Man Shen around the yard for a few laps, he was running out of energy and could only hunch over and gasp for breath.
After a pause, he continued to curse:
"You still know that you lost more than two hundred?
Let me tell you, the money you owe this time was all collected by your brothers-in-law who emptied their family savings to help them.
But it's only this time. If you go to gamble again next time, we won't be able to give you a penny. You'll have to figure it out for yourself.
At that time, whether they want to beat you to death or report you to the police to have you arrested, we will not be able to help you.
Don't expect to use your niece to pay off your debts. I will never agree to that!
And you should write IOUs to your brothers-in-law now.
If you don’t pay it back, let them sue you with the IOU!
Don't expect your elder brother and your mother to help you pay it back. This time, in order to pay off your debt, we have even emptied our own family savings.
Come to think of it, half of this is your eldest brother and his wife's money, you should also write them an IOU."
When Shen Lao Er heard this, he was stunned.
"What? I have to pay back all this money myself? Where am I going to get the money?"
"Go to work! If you work your hardest, I don't believe you won't make money."
This time, Old Man Shen was determined to discipline Old Man Shen.
Boss Shen on the side couldn't help but speak weakly.
"Dad, forget about my share. We're all family, and it would be too awkward to write an IOU."
After hearing this, Yao Cuixiang didn't want to say anything more.
After this incident, she had completely lost hope in Boss Shen.
After all, how can you expect a man who is willing to give up his own daughter for his younger brother to ask his younger brother for these few dozen dollars?
He never even considered preparing some dowry for the two sisters.
Fortunately, Old Man Shen was sensible and finally forced Second Brother Shen to write IOUs to every family, even Old Master Shen was not left out.
This time, Yao Cuixiang didn't even look at Boss Shen, and directly took the IOU handed over by Second Boss Shen.
Seeing this, Boss Shen couldn't help but scold:
"Cui Xiang, what are you doing? Do you really want me to pay you back?
I already owe so much money, why are you joining in the fun?
If you don't know better, tear up the IOU right away!"
Yao Cuixiang was so angry that she couldn't help but vent it.
"You are not the only one in our eldest house. I also need to prepare dowries for my two daughters. How can I prepare them without money?
Their father doesn't care, but as their mother, I can't just ignore it.
If you want to be a good person, that's your business. Just don't use the money. I'll come back to claim it when the time comes.
Besides, this originally belongs to my two daughters, why should I not want it! "
Boss Shen was so blocked that he couldn't say a word.
He knew that what Shen Lao Er did today was indeed excessive, and it was normal for Yao Cuixiang to feel resentful.
I had no choice but to bear it for now and wait until Yao Cuixiang's anger subsided before letting her tear up the IOU.
But when Old Lady Shen saw that her daughter-in-law Yao Cuixiang dared to scold her son in front of her, she immediately became unhappy.
"Big Boss, you are too angry, aren't you?
In my opinion, why prepare dowries for two girls? In the end, when you two die, you will have to rely on Xiaoqing, the man, to take care of everything.
Isn't it your responsibility to be nicer to Xiaoqing at this time?
Do you have to make things so bad that no one throws pots at you in the end?"
"If you don't want to fall, then don't fall. At worst, I can just jump into the river and save you from burying me."
Yao Cuixiang now even confronts Old Lady Shen.
She finally realized that if she didn't stand up for herself in this family, she might not even be able to protect her own daughter.
Even Old Lady Shen couldn't handle this kind of person who was ready to jump into the river if he didn't agree with something.
He couldn't help but turn around and complain to his daughters.
"Look at you sisters, your sister-in-law is so arrogant now that she doesn't even take me seriously."
Upon hearing this, the four sisters looked at each other, not knowing what to do.
They saw what happened today from beginning to end. I'm about to sell someone's daughter, and I still expect them to be in a good mood?
Of course, if this happened to someone else, they might complain a little, but since the person speaking was their own mother, they remained silent for a moment.
