Chapter 196 Miaomiao's Life Story
Chapter 196
Before Old Man Yu could finish his words, Mu Fengzhen interrupted him: "Enough! Stop fooling around!"
"I'm not kidding, this is the truth!" said Old Man Yu. "In fact, I only gave birth to two sons. Miaomiao was picked up by me in the cornfield."
"Actually I didn't agree. These days, who has enough food to feed another mouth? But I was soft-hearted, so I kept her to raise her."
"At the time, I thought that I could raise her to be Qingben's wife. But as she grew up, she became more and more beautiful. How could my boy be worthy of her?"
Mu Jingyun's heart was in his throat, and he nervously came to Yu Miaomiao, ready to comfort her at any time.
What happened to the orphan girl? She has him from now on!
He would never let anyone bully her again, and would use the most love to make up for her regret of not having parents.
Mu Fengzhen was eager to perform and was also prepared to comfort.
However, Yu Miaomiao did not react at all. She said indifferently: "It turns out that I am not your child. That's great."
ah……
Why is this the reaction?
Everyone was stunned.
Yu Miaomiao said: "Since I am not your child, it will be more convenient to break off the relationship tomorrow."
"I raised you, you have to repay me, right?" Old Yu's eyes rolled around, "Give me a thousand dollars for raising me for twenty years!"
"sky!"
Everyone gasped.
One thousand yuan? There are only a few families in the village who can afford that much money!
"No." Yu Miaomiao sneered.
Old Man Yu was not happy: "Miao Miao, if my family hadn't picked you up, you would have starved to death in the cornfield. Maybe you would have been eaten by wild dogs."
"The Yu family has supported you for twenty years and even let you marry into a good family. You should be a man who doesn't know how to make ends meet. One thousand yuan is only fifty yuan a year, and I want less."
Fifty yuan may not be a lot of money nowadays, but twenty years ago, fifty yuan was enough to feed a family of four for several years!
Even ten years ago, fifty dollars was a huge sum of money.
Old man Yu is really cunning in his calculations and he still wants to take the opportunity to extort money.
"Two hundred." Mu Jingyun took the initiative to say, "Miao Miao has been working for your family since she was a child. Isn't that worth it?"
"Whose children don't work?" Old Man Yu asked, "My two children also grew up rolling around in the fields."
"It's just two hundred anyway. You can take it or not." Mu Jingyun said, "I gave a betrothal gift of one hundred and eighty before, and with this two hundred it will be three hundred and eighty. Who can sell their daughter for so much money?"
Old Lady Mu said sarcastically, "I've used free labor for so many years, and this is enough to repay the favor."
"That's right. If you pick up a dog on the roadside, you have to give it food and water! You save a bite of food for the other dog, and you still have the nerve to talk about gratitude?" Mu Fengzhen stood forward with his hands on his hips, looking burly and strong.
Old Man Yu subconsciously raised his hands to protect his head, fearing that her fist would swing at him.
Everyone burst into laughter: "As expected, it's hard to get by without reason. If you don't solve this problem today, Lao Yu, don't even think about leaving Chahe Village."
Old Liu was very worried.
It was obvious that Old Yu could not pay any more money. Now, he did not dare to ask the Mu family for it directly.
Since they have cut off all blood ties, it is only natural that the Mu family does not give a penny.
Could he just consider himself unlucky?
Old Liu thought of the promise made by the leaders of the provincial art troupe and whispered, "Xiao Yu, your leaders promised to solve the problem..."
Old Mrs. Mu’s face changed drastically.
It turns out that this matter also affects the work of the second son’s wife?
When Old Man Yu heard this, he immediately felt confident.
"Miao Miao, Dad raised you, you can't be so heartless and ungrateful. Otherwise, I'll go to the art troupe to seek justice... Ah, murder!"
Before Old Man Yu could finish his words, Mu Jingyun grabbed his neck. The feeling of suffocation made him scream.
Mu Jingyuan ran all the way back to the village because he had no bicycle. As soon as he arrived at the door, he saw Lao Er trying to kill someone and hurried forward to stop him.
"Second brother, calm down and don't cause any deaths..."
"If you dare to go to the art troupe, I will kill you!"
Mu Jingyun let go, and his gloomy eyes looked as if he wanted to stab Old Man Yu on the spot.
Not to mention Old Man Yu, the villagers were also frightened by Mu Jingyun's brutality. The lively scene became quiet.
"It's only two hundred yuan, take it or leave it!"
Mu Jingyun took out two big unity notes and threw them on the ground.
Old man Yu picked up the money with shaking hands, feeling extremely worried. He still needed 30 yuan to pay back Old Liu...
Oh, silver lock!
"Miaomiao, do you still want this silver lock?" asked Old Man Yu.
Yu Miaomiao has loved jewelry since she was a child. But this is not the case.
She likes crystal, pearls, gemstones, jade... not this kind of oxidized black silver.
"This is what you wore when you were a kid. Maybe it can help you find your biological parents." Old Man Yu said, "Fifty dollars, okay?"
Yu Miaomiao's eyes changed several times.
Since they were able to give their children a silver lock twenty years ago, the original owner’s biological parents should not be poor.
This silver lock may be their reward to the person who picked up the child, or it may be a proof of reclaiming the child in the future.
She wants it!
"Fifty is fifty. You are really greedy for money. This originally belonged to my wife." Mu Jingyun readily took out another fifty yuan and took the silver lock back.
At this point, Old Man Yu not only had enough money to pay back Old Liu, but he also had more than 20 yuan left.
He asked humbly, "Can I go now?"
"Go away!"
Old Man Mu smacked his pipe in anger—and immediately took two hundred and fifty yuan from Old Man No. 2! It hurt!
Old Liu was very happy to get the money back. He took the three children and bowed to the Mu family: "Thank you..."
"Don't worry, Xiao Yu. I won't make trouble again. Since you didn't lie to me, I'll tell you something. Be careful of the people in your group."
Someone in the group?
Yu Miaomiao's eyes narrowed and she realized: Old Liu dared to go to the art troupe to make trouble because he was instigated by someone!
Who? Shen Mingzhu?
The first person Yu Miaomiao thought of was the heroine of the original drama.
But Lao Liu said, "A girl with round eyes, seems to be working in the cafeteria."
"Zhu Yu." Yu Miaomiao took a deep breath.
That damn girl is making trouble again. I'll make her roll on the ground when she gets back!
"Okay, you go back!" Yu Miaomiao said.
Old Liu left with many thanks.
Mu Jingyun said to everyone: "Thank you fellow villagers for coming to support us."
“No, no.”
"It should be."
“…”
Everyone was embarrassed.
The implication of Mu Jingyun's words was that they should stop gossiping!
He really loves his wife!
In the entire Chahe Village, Mu Jingyun treats his wife the best!
As the sky gradually darkened, Old Man Mu was still worried about the money and said unhappily, "Go home, go home!"
Several people entered the room and closed the door.
Mu Jingyun was about to clean the room, but Mu Fengzhen got there first and said, "Second brother, take a rest. I'll go clean it."
"Sister, you should let my second brother and his wife clean up. It's time for you to go home." Li Lan said sourly.
Mu Fengzhen said, "I won't go back tonight. I will go back home tomorrow after I accompany my second brother and his wife to the police station."
"Sister, what's wrong with you?"
Not only Mu Jingyuan felt strange, but Old Man Mu and Old Lady Mu also looked at him as if he were a monster.
