"It's a new era now - how can the blind marriages of the past count? It's said that arranged marriages are not allowed. I'm just looking for my own happiness." The scumbag father who abandoned his wife and children only took a moment to think of an excuse for himself, and repeated it twice with confidence, "I'm doing the right thing, it's in line with the times, I'm looking for my own happiness."

His words were really shameless. Most of the villagers were honest and simple. When they suddenly saw someone like him, they were so angry that they were speechless.

The village chief was so angry that he was speechless. After a pause, he cursed, "Second son of the Su family - you are taking advantage of the policy loophole! When you married Meihua, we were all here! We were not dead yet! Now you have been seduced by another woman and abandoned your wife and children. You have lost your conscience!"

Su Laoer stiffened his neck, said nothing, and stood with the widow, looking as if he didn't care about anyone.

When Li Meihua saw this scene, tears suddenly came out. She didn't even care about her image. She pounced on them and started to tear apart Su Laoer and the widow.

"You two bastards! I'm going to skin you today! You have lost your conscience. You haven't had a good day in this family. Your mother has been tormenting us. Every time she comes, she calls your two daughters money-losing goods. Every time she either beats Zhaodi or insults Pandi, you, a grown man, are actually with a coward! If I had known that I would marry a bitch like you, I would rather jump into the river and commit suicide!" Although Li Meihua was weak, she was not without temper. Especially at this time, the man she regarded as a god before actually ran away with the widow at the village entrance. It was a great shame.

The widow didn't pay attention for a moment, and was almost stripped of her clothes by her. After being beaten and scolded, she tore them off, "Who do you think you are! You are ugly and a softie. Look at you like this! Which man would like you!"

Seeing the scene gradually becoming chaotic, the villagers hurriedly wanted to step forward to separate the fight.

At this time, Su Zhiruan, who had almost finished watching the show, slowly walked out and said, "No need to stop the fight, let them fight!"

"Pandi and Erzhu, the two of you run to the village and call the police station. Tell them that someone has killed someone here."

Her words were harsh.

The villagers didn't even have time to react before they saw the three people who were fighting slow down.

Su Zhiruan held a child in each hand and added calmly, "Fight, remember if you fight, you will be in prison for at least three months. Three months is enough time for you to fight properly."

When they heard they were going to be detained, the three of them let go at the same time.

The police station at the entrance of the village was just established last year. The villagers were in awe and did not dare to disturb it. When they heard what Su Zhiruan said, the three of them stopped fighting immediately.

Li Meihua had disheveled hair. She snorted coldly at the scumbag and bitch. Looking at her own Zhaodi in the crowd, she suddenly seemed to have found a backbone and quickly stood behind Su Zhiruan.

"If the police station wasn't here, I would have taught you a lesson today!" Su Laoer said with a grin, and a cut was left on his face by his fingernails in the chaos.

"Since you've stopped, let me say a few words first." Su Zhiruan let go of the two children, letting their younger brother and sister stay with Li Meihua, and she stepped forward.

In the eyes of the villagers, Su Zhaodi, who was usually aggressive but actually cowardly, had an indescribable feeling today, as if she had become a different person. Although she still looked the same, she gave people the feeling that she was more majestic than the village chief.

"What are you going to say?" Su Laoer looked at his daughter warily. He felt guilty, and in order to pretend to be calm, he even raised his voice a lot. "You are just a woman, and you will definitely get married in the future. You are just a money-loser. I raised you to this age, so what's wrong with hitting you twice? You are living well, and I haven't asked you for the bride price yet?"

"Every debt has its perpetrator. It must be you who came to our house to collect the debt just now," Su Zhiruan certainly knew what he was thinking. Thirty yuan, this number might not be enough for a meal in the previous world, but in this era, it is a farmer's income for half a year. In this era where five cents can buy a big steamed bun, three cents a pencil, and seven cents a notebook, thirty yuan is enough for the whole family to eat for a long time. As for the debt collectors, if it weren't for the instructions of the original owner's scumbag father, how could they come to a house full of orphans and widows to collect debts in such a peaceful era? "Whoever owes the debt must pay it back, otherwise... As far as I know, our country has a complete set of laws."

"Also, according to our country's laws, parents and children who are confirmed to be related by blood have the obligation to provide support," Su Zhiruan said calmly. She was neither humble nor arrogant, and she was confident. Although her tone was gentle, it was easy for her to gain the trust of others. She continued, "I am sixteen years old, and my two younger brothers and sisters are eight years old. If we take this to court, I believe the judge will definitely make his own judgment."

As for abandoning his wife and children, no one knew better than Su Laoer what he had done. He panicked for a moment and subconsciously looked at the widow.

The widow had money, he knew.

The widow's husband worked in a steel mill a few years ago, but died in an accident while on a business trip and had to pay a lot of money in compensation. That's why he went to such great lengths to get close to the widow.

"You little bitch! You're such a sharp-tongued girl!" The widow looked at her with disgust. Especially after seeing Su Zhiruan's pretty face, she became even more jealous and her tone became much more sarcastic. "Don't you just want money? You've made such a fuss. A poor guy is a poor guy. So, I'll pay off Su Laoer's debt today! And then I'll give your family five dollars."

"Five dollars?!" The surrounding villagers were also shocked.

Su Laoer was even more overjoyed. Now that he had figured out the money, he no longer had to live in fear and could completely sever ties with Li Meihua and these burdensome children.

The latest novel is published first on Liu9shuba!

Originally, he was waiting for Su Zhiruan to grow up, so that he could sell some betrothal gifts and then live a carefree life with the money. But now it seems that pleasing the widow is the most important thing.

He shouted excitedly, "Wife!"

A blush appeared on the widow's face, which made the people around her feel disgusted.

"But I have a condition!" Su Laoer was not a fool. Since there was a widow who paid back the money, he would definitely take this opportunity to completely sever his relationship. He looked at Su Zhiruan and then at the village chief. "Fellow villagers, Li Meihua and I didn't get married at all. Everyone knows this. Now that they have received five yuan, and Li Meihua and Su Zhaodi can work and earn work points, they can also make money. Then the village chief will be a witness today! I will add another ten yuan. From now on, Li Meihua, Su Zhaodi, Su Pandi, and Su Erzhu have nothing to do with me, Su Laoer!"

"This..." The village chief looked at Su Zhiruan.
