Chapter 294: Conscience Cannot Be Lost
Liu Fengjiao saw clearly what happened outside.
Seeing Ruhua and Old Lady Chen being so intimate, he couldn't help but snort, with a sneer flashing in his eyes.
You are such a fool. You have separated all the hardworking people out. Just imagine how you are going to live in the future.
Now that he has not got the money for the exam, Chen Zhancai will definitely cause trouble again.
It would be fine if he passed the exam, but if he failed, Chen Zhancai's arrogant character would definitely not let go of his pride to earn money to support his family.
By then, the Chen family might have to beg for food. It seems she needs to make plans for herself early...
Wu's old house,
Finally separated from the old house, Sun was so happy.
Finally got rid of the biased in-laws and the blood-sucking brother-in-law.
She can do whatever she wants in the future, no longer have to worry about other people's feelings, and can concentrate on living her own life.
But when she walked into the empty house, the joy she had just felt disappeared.
The family was divided, but now I have nothing.
No food to eat, no money to support myself, not even the most basic pots and pans to cook...
Sun felt a mixture of emotions and shook her head helplessly, sighing, "How am I going to live my life from now on?"
Chen Zhanliang felt bad after hearing this and hurried forward to comfort her.
"Don't worry. As the saying goes, even if God doesn't let a sparrow die of starvation, there will always be a way. I'll find a job tomorrow and make sure you and your child have enough to eat."
Sun nodded with red eyes, "Master, thank you for your hard work."
"Why are you being so polite to me? But you and your child will go hungry today."
"I've been hungry before, and I'll die if I skip a meal or two."
At this time, Dabao came in from outside. Seeing his parents' worried faces, he handed the one or two taels of silver he had prepared to Sun.
"Dad, Mom, don't worry. I've said before that as long as we separate from the old house and live on our own, I can support you. Take this money and go to town tomorrow to buy food and a stove."
Sun quickly shook her head and waved her hands, "No, no, no, Dabao, please put it away quickly. This is all the money you earned through hard work. Mother can't take it."
"Mom, what's the hardship? My son is now the manager of the sugar mill. Sister Qingqing has already given me a raise. It's two taels of silver a month."
"Two taels of silver!"
Sun was surprised, then reminded seriously,
"Dabao, Qing girl treats you well, you can't go against your conscience and make dirty money!"
"Yes, Dabao, your mother is right. As a human being, you can lose anything except your conscience. You can't do anything reckless." Chen Zhanliang also reminded.
Dabao knew his parents suspected that he had touched the money in the account, so he quickly explained, "What are you thinking? Sister Qingqing really gave me a raise. If you don't believe me, you can go ask her."
"Why haven't I heard you say this before?" Sun was still a little unconvinced.
Dabao shook his head and smiled. "I didn't tell you because I was afraid you'd talk too much and my grandparents would find out. If they knew I made so much money, how could they easily split up the family business? They would definitely try to take advantage of me, so I didn't tell you."
Seeing that he didn't seem to be lying, Sun smiled comfortably, "You, you are a bit cunning, much better than your mother."
"Of course. My sister Qingqing told me that it is better to rely on yourself than on others. As long as I work hard, it won't be long before we can build three blue brick and tile houses.
Then I will let you buy whatever you want to eat, just like my uncle and aunt."
As he said that, Dabao stuffed the silver into Sun's hand and said, "Okay, mother, don't be polite to me, just put the money away quickly."
Sun no longer refused and accepted the money. "Dabao, I'll use this money first. I will definitely pay you back later."
"Yes, this money must be paid back." Chen Zhanliang also responded.
Dabao waved his hands and said, "Dad, Mom, why are you still being so polite to me? You don't have to worry about the firewood, rice, oil, salt, and cooking utensils at home. I'll go borrow some from Sister Qingqing later."
Sun was startled. "Your sister Qingqing treats you well. Wouldn't it be a bit inappropriate to trouble her again?"
Chen Zhanliang also felt that something was wrong. "Yeah, why don't we just go hungry for a few meals and not bother others."
"Dad, Mom, Sister Qingqing doesn't have that much to do. Just leave her alone. Clean up at home and light the kang. I'll be back soon."
After saying this, Dabao left the house.
******
Leaving the Chen family's old house.
Chen Qingqing, Xiaoyu and Chen Zhanshan returned to the sugar factory, but the factory had already finished work.
Chen Zhanshan stayed behind to check whether the fire in the stove was out and whether the brown sugar he had boiled today was up to standard...
Chen Qingqing took Xiaoyu back home.
As soon as he entered the house, Chen Han hurried forward and asked, "Sister, where did you find Erbao?"
"I found it at the dental clinic."
"A brothel!" Chen Han was shocked to know that a brothel was a place that specialized in human trafficking.
Lin's scalp tingled when she heard this. "These people are so wicked! How could they sell Erbao to a pawnshop? How is Erbao now? Did he get beaten?"
Chen Qingqing shook her head. "Luckily, we got there in time. Erbao didn't suffer any harm, but he was scared to death by those people."
Lin sighed helplessly, "Chen Zhancai is really a piece of shit. He wanted to study so he could go to school, and now he's even more crazy and wants to sell Erbao. I think your uncle and aunt are completely disappointed this time. We can't just let it go like this."
Chen Han raised his head and said, "Mom, it wasn't Erbao that my Third Uncle wanted to sell. This morning he dragged me to town by force. Fortunately, I reacted quickly and escaped."
Lin's hands trembled, and her face turned pale with fear.
"These beasts are not human, and they even want to plot against my child. Xiaohan, don't run around anymore in the future."
"Don't worry, Mom. I won't be fooled."
"That won't work either. From now on, when you see people from the old house, stay away from them. Who knows what bad things they might do in the future."
Seeing Lin's worried face, Chen Qingqing smiled and comforted her, "Mom, don't worry, Xiaohan can distinguish between good and evil, and will not let the bad guys succeed."
Although she said so, she didn't think so in her heart. In order to support Chen Zhancai's studies, the people in the old house had no moral bottom line. Some things had to be done.
It seems that Xiaohan needs to bring some emergency poison with him when he goes to college.
If Chen Zhancai were to make a move, he would have a plan to deal with it so that he wouldn't suffer a big loss.
Lin nodded, but still worriedly warned Chen Han, "Xiao Han, you must not run around everywhere in the future. Especially if someone asks you to go out and play, don't agree easily, understand?"
"Mom, I'll remember it." Chen Han nodded obediently in agreement.
After chatting for a while, Chen Qingqing found that Xiaoyu didn't come in, so she got up and left the room.
As soon as I arrived at the yard, I saw him sitting on the stone steps, staring into the distance in a daze.
Chen Qingqing sat down next to him, "Xiaoyu, what are you thinking about?"
