After listening to Old Lady Wang's idea, Zhao Youcai suggested that the first option was to take out 200 yuan and send the second sister back to the Li family. After the old lady of the Li family died, the second sister would take charge of the family and send all the things of the Li family back.
The second option is to accept a betrothal gift of 200 yuan and remarry my second sister, but I am afraid that this second brother-in-law will stop my second sister from managing her parents' home in the future, and I may not get the money in the future.
Zhao Youcai chose the second option without thinking.
After being pleaded with by Zhao Erjie for an entire afternoon, Mrs. Wang softened her heart a little. She wanted to persuade Zhao Youcai to choose the first option:
"She is your biological sister after all. Even if the Li family is not good, she still has several children. In the future, the children will listen to her and continue to manage the uncle's family."
Zhao Youcai scratched his head in annoyance. He also knew that the Li family might be better off in the future.
But he couldn't wait until later. If he didn't give the money to Shulan's mother now, what would happen if Shulan was married off to someone else?
So what if she is his biological sister? His mother has always told him since he was a child that she is just a girl and her job is to pave the way for his future. It is her honor to be able to help him.
"Who can predict what will happen in the future? What if that old woman from the Li family lives to be a hundred years old? I still have to wait for her for forty years?
Does your son have such a long life? Besides, the Li family treated my second sister badly. If my second sister remarries, she might live a better life than before.
When Old Lady Wang heard Zhao Youcai say that he had a short life, she quickly said "Pooh, pooh, pooh" and waved her hands to drive away all the unlucky words.
"My son will surely live a long life."
"Since you think it's a good idea to remarry, I'll meet that person with your second sister tomorrow."
Zhao Youcai nodded: "Okay, you should finish this matter as soon as possible, and then go to visit my second uncle and second aunt."
Old Lady Wang nodded, then her face darkened:
"Oh, right, the Xing family said they saw Ma Xiulan buy a new bicycle. They wanted to borrow it, but she rode off in a flash. Does she still look like a mother?"
Zhao Youcai knew that Ma Xiu Lan had 2,000 yuan in her hand which she had asked from Shu Lan at that time, 1,000 yuan of which was borrowed from Shu Lan's mother.
She struggled to pay back the money, but she was so carefree that she even bought a bicycle.
I was so angry that my teeth were itching, but I had to pretend not to care:
"Why bother with her? She's an ignorant woman who will waste her money if she has it."
Old Mrs. Wang planned that when Ma Xiulan returned to the Zhao family, she would make sure she gave the new bicycle to her son.
The next day, Old Lady Wang took Zhao Erjie to Fang the matchmaker's house and saw Zhang Guofu, who was half bald, had a mouth full of yellow teeth, and could smell the smell of cigarette smoke from half a meter away. He looked older than his actual age.
Zhao Erjie frowned. Her husband never smoked, so she couldn't stand the smell of cigarettes.
Zhang Guofu was very satisfied with Zhao Erjie. She was good-looking and 10 years younger than him. He also promised not to take care of the previous child. Of course, this was a promise made by Old Lady Wang.
He immediately gave Old Lady Wang the 200 yuan betrothal gift she had requested and asked her to take Zhao Erjie to get a marriage certificate immediately.
This way, his sons wouldn’t find out and he wouldn’t be able to get married.
Zhao Erjie didn't expect things to progress so quickly. She hadn't divorced the Li family yet.
Old Lady Wang didn't care at all: "Guofu, we have to go home and pack up first, you can go get the certificate this afternoon."
After leaving the matchmaker's house, Old Lady Wang took Zhao Erjie straight to the Li family, preparing to divorce the Li family.
Zhao Erjie kept begging Old Lady Wang all the way: "Mom, I don't want to marry that man. He's too old."
"It's better to be old. You can die quickly. Then you can live alone. How happy it is. Look, your father is dead. I don't have to take care of him. I can live a comfortable life."
Old Lady Wang tried hard to brainwash Zhao Erjie.
Zhao Erjie said with a sad face: "But I still can't bear to leave my children."
"Mom, I'll ask my mother-in-law to give you 200 yuan. Can you just turn Zhang Guofu away and return the money to him?"
Old Mrs. Wang thought about it and nodded, and Zhao Erjie's hope was rekindled.
The two of them walked all the way to Li's house and knocked on the door.
When Old Lady Li heard Second Sister Zhao's voice, she opened the door and saw Second Sister Zhao fawning over her. Old Lady Wang still had a dark face and didn't seem apologetic at all.
She was unhappy and said with a frown: "What are you two doing here?"
Zhao Erjie knelt down at Old Lady Li's feet and said, "Mom, I was wrong. Please forgive me."
For the sake of her children and grandchildren, Old Lady Li only wanted to punish Zhao Erjie and her blood-sucking family this time. Otherwise, Zhao Erjie would hurt her grandson for her family in the future.
"So your family is willing to pay compensation?"
When Old Lady Wang mentioned money, she became defensive and put her hands on her hips.
"You're dreaming, and you want me to pay you money?
I took my daughter to a date today, and the man fell in love with her right away. Look, he even gave me the 200 yuan betrothal gift.
However, I am a kind-hearted person and would like to give your family another chance. If you are willing to pay the 200 yuan, I will not marry my daughter off and she will remain in your family."
Hearing the tone of Old Lady Wang's charity, Old Lady Li became furious:
"Your daughter hasn't even divorced my son yet, and you've already accepted the betrothal gift from the next family? How could there be such a heartless person like you in this world?"
Zhao Erjie knelt forward a few steps and pulled at Old Lady Li's trouser legs:
"Mom, please, give my mother 200 yuan. I want Kaiming and the children."
Old Lady Li kicked Zhao Erjie out immediately:
"You're almost fifty, can't you just disobey your mother? You do whatever your mother tells you to do. You haven't even been weaned yet, so why would you marry someone?"
