Facing the questioning from her sister Su Miao, Su Xin was stubborn at first:
"I didn't do anything wrong. I just think it's unkind of you to abandon Zhao Xingfeng when she's in trouble. Please don't abandon her. I'll go to the police station and talk to her properly. She'll definitely be grateful."
Isn't Su Miao familiar with her sister's lies? She said with a chilling heart:
"Then don't even think about it. For the sake of your brother-in-law's job, our family definitely won't want a daughter-in-law with a tainted reputation."
Su Xin was really scared this time:
"Sister, I'm telling you the truth. You have to save me. I was the one who ordered Zhao Xing to find someone to teach Zhao Xingmin a lesson, but Zhao Xingmin turned out to be fine, and that thug was put in jail instead. Now even Zhao Xingfeng has been taken away. I'm afraid Zhao Xingfeng will betray me."
Having said this, she tugged at Su Miao's sleeve, pleading:
"Sister, go to the police station and tell her not to betray me, otherwise you will not recognize her as your daughter-in-law. She is most afraid of being kicked out of the Song family. If you say that, she will definitely not dare to tell me."
Su Miao didn't expect her sister to be so confused. She slapped Su Xin in the face:
"How can you be so stupid and narrow-minded, and still get involved with that clueless Zhao Xingfeng?"
"What's the point of just bribing Zhao Xingfeng? One of Zhao Xingfeng's sisters-in-law was also arrested this time. She must have heard Zhao Xingfeng mention you. You can threaten Zhao Xingfeng, but what about her sister-in-law? How can I shut up so many people?"
"Secrecy is key. If so many people know about the same thing, you'll be caught. Leave my house now! You can't get caught there, or it will affect your brother-in-law's job."
After saying that, she was about to push Su Xin away.
Su Xin refused to leave, so she fell to the ground, hugged Su Miao's thighs and cried:
"Before Dad passed away, he gave all the things in the house to you and your brother-in-law, and asked you to promise to take care of me. You can't just ignore me, can't you just help me clean up the mess like before?"
Su Miao felt a headache. She couldn't let her father down, but her sister had caused a lot of trouble. From the performance of Zhao Xingmin and Ma Xiu Lan when they resigned from the supply and marketing cooperative last time, she knew that they would not be easily bribed by money.
Otherwise, they could just sell their jobs and leave quietly.
How could it have become such a big deal that my brother-in-law was investigated?
It would probably cost quite a bit of money to settle the matter, and Su Xin would have to pay for it, so she asked him to prepare 2,000 yuan first.
"I spent over a thousand dollars to deal with Zhao Xingmin, and now you want me to pay him back. I don't have any money, so you have to pay for it."
Su Xin was not happy. The dowry money she had saved was getting less and less, and her husband was in jail, so she had to spend it sparingly.
"How can Zhao Xingmin agree to drop the case without the money? If you don't want to pay, forget it. I don't want to make this trip for you."
Su Xin had no choice but to agree because he was afraid that his sister would really not care about him.
"Only 2,000 yuan, no more."
"If you go find Zhao Xingmin now, won't he immediately know I'm the mastermind?"
Su Miao sighed: "I will definitely not use your name. I will use it to exonerate Zhao Xingfeng and ask them to drop the case."
"Sister, Zhao Xingfeng is your daughter-in-law, you should also contribute part of the money."
Su Miao stuttered angrily: "You..."
"Zhao Xingfeng is not worth our money. If you are not willing to pay for my proposal just now, forget it. Go away and don't drag me down."
Finally, Su Xin took out a passbook with 2,000 yuan from home and handed it to Su Miao.
Su Miao followed the path pointed by Su Xin, came to No. 8, Longyang Street, and knocked on the door.
Ma Xiulan saw Su Miao through the crack in the door. Isn't this Zhao Xingfeng's arrogant mother-in-law who never bothered to talk to her in her previous life? Why did she come here this time?
Could it be about Zhao Xingfeng? She had just learned from Zhang Jianxun that Zhao Xingfeng and Chen Zhenzhen had been arrested.
That should be impossible. Su Miao doesn't like Zhao Xingfeng as her daughter-in-law. She likes Shen Caixia, who grew up with Song Qinghe as a childhood sweetheart.
"What's up?"
Su Miao didn't expect that she couldn't even get in the door. A poor worker was so disrespectful when he saw her. But thinking of her sister, she cleared her throat twice and tried to slow down her voice:
"Mother-in-law, I'm Zhao Xingfeng's mother-in-law. I'm here to discuss something with you."
"I have nothing to talk to you about. You should go talk to Zhao Xingfeng's father. She followed her father when they divorced." Ma Xiulan said coldly.
Su Miao was displeased when she heard her cold attitude, so he suppressed his temper:
"I can only discuss this with you because it's also related to Zhao Xingmin."
Hearing this, Ma Xiu Lan opened the door for Su Miao and they both sat in the main room.
Su Miao was surprised to see that Ma Xiu Lan didn't even pour her some water, thinking it was so rude of her and that she didn't take her, their relative who was above her status, seriously at all.
She frowned, with a tone of lecturing:
"Zhao Xingfeng and Zhao Xingmin are sisters from the same mother. You're the one being laughed at by outsiders for what's happened now. Others think you're such a jerk that you raised such a girl."
"Zhao Xingmin was harassed by gangsters. You didn't keep it a secret, and you even dared to call the police. If you make it public, people will only think Zhao Xingmin is not decent. Otherwise, why would the gangsters harass her instead of others? I'm reminding you because we are relatives. Now you and Zhao Xingmin should quickly withdraw the case. Otherwise, you will cry when your daughter can't get married."
Although she brought money with her, she was not a fool. If the problem could be solved without spending money, she would definitely not mention the money and would scare her with words first.
