Chapter 161 What does the future have to do with the present?
Seeing Ni looking at her son reluctantly as he left, the man sitting at the table eating snorted coldly.
"It's just twenty taels of silver, you don't have to spend so much money on it. My son is a big businessman, just wait to enjoy the good life."
Ni used to listen to her husband the most. She listened to whatever her husband said and trusted him very much, but this time she always felt uneasy.
"Husband, it's not that I'm stingy, but I always feel empty in my heart."
"It's okay, anyway, you earn a lot now, twenty taels of silver is just one month's salary for you. What's wrong with using one month's salary to let your son go out and try it out?"
The man didn't care and obviously didn't take this matter to heart.
Ni stood there, moving her lips for a long time before she said, "My sister-in-law and I have offended Madam Yu and have been driven out of Huiyan Pavilion. We won't be able to make that much money in the future."
The man stood up suddenly after hearing this. His tall figure was like a giant beast, and his huge shadow tightly enveloped Ni.
Ni's legs were weak with fear.
"I, I didn't mean to do it. It was my sister-in-law who instigated it."
"I was just confused for a moment."
The man was too lazy to listen to Ni's words, so he picked up the stick on the ground and hit her.
"You prodigal woman, you actually lost such a good job. I must beat you to death."
The man beat Ni, her face was swollen, and her legs were bent at a weird angle.
The man dragged Ni to the gate of Gan's house and threw her on the ground.
He approached the guards, bowed his head and said, "Brothers, I am here with my wife to apologize to Madam Yu. Please help pass the message."
The gatekeeper knew Ni. In the past, Ni always looked up and looked down on people, but now he was dragged all the way here.
They have all been on the battlefield and have long lost their bad intentions.
People with bad intentions cannot survive on the battlefield.
They just glanced at Ni and retracted their gaze.
"Madam is out."
The guards looked cold, without any enthusiasm.
The man felt a little embarrassed, but he didn't dare to say anything: "May I ask when Madam Yu will be back?"
"We don't know."
The man said nothing, turned around silently, and left without saying a word, leaving Nishi paralyzed on the ground, and it took a long time for her to stand up.
Although the man didn't say a word just now, she already understood what he meant. She must get Madam Yu's forgiveness, otherwise she couldn't even go home.
She could only limp to Huiyan Pavilion.
In Huiyan Pavilion, many customers were buying things, and when they saw that she was dirty, they quietly distanced themselves from her.
With the incident at Yangliu Tower, everyone didn't dare to show their disgust to Nishi, and could only express their emotions in this way.
Nishi was the most sensitive, and she shrank helplessly.
She was suddenly thankful for Hui Niang's strength. If she were in another store, she would have been kicked out dressed like this.
Only Hui Yan Pavilion was willing to let her in.
[Did she encounter a thief?]
Gan Tian looked at Ni Shi's expression, her big eyes filled with confusion.
[It's no use looking for my mother if you encounter a thief. Shouldn't you report to the police?]
Hui Niang moved Gan Tian's small fleshy hand.
This silly child, given Ni Shi's temper, if someone beat her, she would have made a big fuss by now.
After beating her like this, the only one who could let her run around with her sick body was obviously her husband's family.
Ni Shi had already said and done what she should have said yesterday.
She had tried every means, but she didn't know how to get Hui Niang's forgiveness. There was even some despair in her eyes.
She walked slowly towards Hui Niang, grabbed Hui Niang's skirt, and cried loudly.
"Madam Yu, I know I was wrong. I shouldn't have gone against you. Please forgive me this time."
"If you don't forgive me, I will die."
Hui Niang never knew that she could be so powerful. Could her forgiveness decide a person's life or death?
Hui Niang silently pulled her clothes out of Ni's hands.
"Ni, were you beaten by your husband's family again?"
Her action made Ni's eyes dim.
"I, I didn't..."
She wanted to say that she was not beaten by her husband, but her family lived on the same street as the Gan family, so it was useless to deny it.
Seeing this, what else did everyone not understand.
It must be that Ni lost her job and was beaten by her husband, so she came to ask for help.
[Ni is so pitiful, but when I think of the things she did and the words she said, I can't sympathize with her.]
Gan Tian looked at Ni and shook her head slightly, because she couldn't control her body very well, giving people a feeling of swaying and about to fall, which looked very cute.
Hui Niang stretched out her arms to protect the little guy, fearing that the little guy would accidentally fall.
Ni couldn't help but envy Hui Niang a little. She was beautiful and had a husband who loved her so much.
Hui Niang had such close contacts with those girls in the brothel, but she was not blamed by her husband's family. She just lost her job, and was implicated by her younger brother and sister-in-law, so she was severely beaten.
Her eyes, which always looked down on people, suddenly showed a trace of helplessness. She stared at Hui Niang with tears in her eyes.
Gan Tian couldn't bear that he dared to look at her mother like that.
He spit out a lot of saliva after two puffs.
"Ni, you are too careless. I dare not use you. You should go back."
"If you encounter difficulties, go to your parents. I have no relatives or friends with you and cannot help you."
"No, you can help!"
"As long as you still use me like before, you are helping me."
Ni kowtowed while sobbing.
"Madam Yu, I know I was wrong. I really know I was wrong. I will never dare to do it again."
"From now on, I will be Madam Yu's dog. If you tell me to go east, I will never go west."
Ni's head banged on the ground again and again, and he didn't stop even when he saw the blood.
When Gan Tian watched TV before, she always wondered why the supporting actors would be moved when the protagonist kowtowed. Now she finally understood.
When a person's head hits the ground, it makes a banging sound. This sound is particularly dull on the wooden floor.
Bang bang bang bang, it's like knocking on a person's body.
When the blood splashed out, the fishy smell of blood was even more uncomfortable.
Ni was such a proud person. No matter who he met, he would stubbornly raise his head and say a few sarcastic words. But at this time, he was so humble. The shock was very strong.
Gan Tian saw this and suddenly felt sorry for Ni.
Ni made quite a bit of money, so why did she have to be so humble?
Hui Niang sighed: "Although you have a bad mouth, you are still a decent person, but your husband's family is really not decent."
"If you want to live a good life, it's useless to just work and make money. People will get old, and sooner or later there will be a day when they can't work anymore."
"What will you do when that time comes?"
Ni had never thought about these questions before.
In the future?
What does the future have to do with her now?
As long as she can make money now and make her husband happy, isn't that enough?
