A week passed quickly, and my mother-in-law and the others will come to the hospital to pick up my wife tomorrow.
That evening, while his mother was in the toilet, Yu Chengyuan had a private conversation with his wife.
"Wife, we will be parting ways tomorrow."
To be honest, I really hate to part with you and Tangtang.
Don't worry, I will pick you and your daughter up as soon as possible.
I will definitely handle the division of the family property quickly when I get back.
Yu Chengyuan held his wife's hand and glanced at his daughter, who was sleeping soundly.
My daughter's nickname is Tangtang (Sugar), and I hope that when she grows up, her life will be as sweet as sugar.
They haven't decided on a formal name yet, but the couple has already agreed that the wife's parents will choose it.
Because this is their first child.
"Chengyuan, I can't bear to part with you either."
When you go back this time, you must protect yourself and your parents.
Grandma and your second and third aunts probably won't let you off so easily.
Be smarter, don't argue with them head-on.
This time you assaulted someone and robbed them; to outsiders, you're clearly in the wrong, regardless of the reason.
Both my second and third uncles are henpecked; whatever their wives say goes.
My second uncle is slightly better; he's fairly honest, but he can't make decisions.
My third uncle and third aunt are the same kind of people; they'd try to find something even in the dung.
I can never accept being taken advantage of.
Unfortunately, my third uncle also has a son who is a freshman in college and works in the village.
This made Grandma very proud, and she would praise it to everyone she met.
This is one of the reasons why my third uncle's family was the most favored by my grandmother.
"Wife, don't worry, I'm no longer the weak and honest Yu Chengyuan."
For no other reason than for you and your daughter, I will not back down, and of course, I will also protect myself.
They've bullied us enough over the years; it's time for us serfs to rise up and sing our praises.
We can't let them bully us forever, can we?
"Okay, I believe you."
This time, her husband dared to hit his elders for her sake, which already made her look at him in a new light.
"Here's three hundred yuan."
Yu Chengyuan took out an envelope containing three hundred yuan.
Where did you get so much money?
Tell me the truth, how much money did Grandma keep in total?
Liu Sulan asked in surprise.
She knew that her surgery cost three or four hundred yuan, plus the cost of seven days of hospitalization and the cost of the medicine prescribed by the doctor, so she definitely didn't have much left.
"Grandma had a total of 500 yuan, plus 50 yuan that Mom gave me, making a total of 550 yuan. Now I only have 100 yuan left."
I kept it, in case I need the money later.
The three hundred yuan in the envelope was given to me by my parents-in-law.
This is for you and the children; please keep it.
Yu Chengyuan explained.
"I'm currently in postpartum confinement and don't need the money, so you should keep it!"
If your grandmother and the others make things difficult for you and force your parents to hand over the money, then you should give that money to them.
As long as they agree to split the family property, that's fine.
Liu Sulan knew those people were not to be trifled with, and that her family was no match for those two families.
"Wife, I'd rather give this money to a beggar on the street than to those ungrateful wretches."
Listen to me, it's safe for you to keep this money. If I keep it on my person, it might get discovered by them, which would be bad.
Don't worry, I have a brilliant plan to deal with them; a division of the family is inevitable.
I'll show you something, and you'll understand.
Ta-da! ...
"IOU?"
Five hundred yuan! My God, Chengyuan, how did you end up owing so much money?
Liu Sulan's voice rose in surprise.
"Shh...
Honey, keep your voice down, don't let passersby hear you.
This IOU is fake; look at the hospital's official seal at the bottom.
I asked the director to get this for me.
Don't let it slip; just say you spent a thousand yuan.
"Cheng Yuan, you're really too bold!"
You actually let Director Chen of the Obstetrics and Gynecology Department give you a fake IOU?
But what's the use of this IOU?
If Grandma sees that you've spent all the money she saved, she'll be furious.
She probably feels like strangling you.
She already disliked you, so she'll hate you and your parents even more now.
You still owe five hundred yuan. Wouldn't Grandma chase after you and beat you every day?
I reckon she'll kick you out of the house!
Liu Sulan still didn't understand what the purpose of having this IOU was.
"Wife, you're right. If Grandma knew I'd spent all the money, she'd probably want to beat me to death to vent her anger."
If they knew I owed five hundred yuan, they'd be happy to kick me out.
This is exactly what I hoped for, and it is also my goal.
"But if she gets so angry that she collapses and dies, it would save me a lot of trouble."
Yu Chengyuan revealed a mysterious smile.
“Chengyuan, you can’t say that. No matter how bad she is, she is still the child’s great-grandmother and your grandmother.”
Liu Sulan put her hand to his lips to stop him.
"Honey, I was just kidding."
I hope she lives to be a hundred years old and watches our family live a prosperous and happy life.
This made her live in painful regret every single day.
He wanted her to live well, or to live a life of suffering.
"Chengyuan, you just scared me to death."
"But now you can tell me why you made that IOU, right?"
Liu Sulan thought for a while, but still couldn't figure out his intention.
However, the thought of the blizzard that would ensue if her grandmother saw the IOU sent chills down her spine.
