Chapter 142 Fighting evil with evil is equal to magic defeating magic

After saying this, Mother Liu looked a little embarrassed. She looked at her son's mocking eyes with red eyes, "Son, it's not that Mom is partial, it's just that the room at home is too tight. You can't just watch your brother being single, right? You are the eldest, it's your responsibility to take care of your brothers and sisters."

"So, you guys just sacrifice me?"

Liu Bai's face was gloomy. He had been living like a dream in the past six months. He went from being full of vigor and vitality to being trampled into the dust without even a chance to turn things around.

If it weren't for this incident, he would never have known until his death that his family would be so selfish, heartless and ungrateful.

As the eldest son, his existence was to be sacrificed at any time.

"Son, listen to me, live a good life, and stop struggling. Our family can't afford it."

Mother Liu held his arm, her eyes full of pleading. She couldn't let her son get a divorce. Cao Yingzi was so stubborn that if they got divorced, she would definitely take all those things away. Without all the furniture and appliances, the second son's marriage would be ruined.

Listening to his mother's plea, he thought about their actions, which were beyond reason but also within his expectations. But when he heard it with his own ears, he still found it unbelievable and it hurt him.

"Oh, you are a family here, so is it the wrong time for me to come?"

As they were talking, Cao Yingzi came over with her newly bought high heels, glanced at the Liu family mother and son with contempt, blew on her newly applied nail polish,

"Mother-in-law, what are you singing about? Why are you crying?"

Seeing Cao Yingzi coming over, Liu Ming was so scared that his face tightened. He subconsciously took a step to the side and concealed the emotions in his eyes.

When Liu's mother saw Cao Yingzi, she wiped her eyes and smiled.

"Yingzi is here. I just bought some food and I ran into Mingliao. Hurry up and go home with mom to have dinner. You two haven't been home for a while. Today is a good time for our family to reunite."

"Okay then, what delicious food did grandma buy?"

Cao Yingzi glanced at Liu Ming, then looked at Liu's mother's basket with a fake smile, which contained a few shriveled potatoes and wrinkled radishes. She usually didn't even look at these vegetables.

Liu Min had been huddled aside for a while, and now it was finally her turn to speak, "Sister-in-law, I want to eat tomatoes, but mom won't buy them for me. How about you buy them for me?"

"Tomatoes? They are greenhouse vegetables. They are expensive. They cost several yuan per pound."

Cao Yingzi glanced at her sister-in-law with contempt. She had always looked down on this lazy and gluttonous sister-in-law.

"Two yuan and fifty cents a pound, it's not too expensive. Sister-in-law has money anyway, so just buy it for me." Liu Minsi didn't notice Cao Yingzi's contempt at all, and stared at her with hot eyes.

Mother Liu looked a little uncomfortable, but she didn't say anything to stop him.

"Alas, your sister-in-law's family is not having a good time either. Your brother was fired from the factory and has no income. Now the whole family depends on me alone, and I have to rely on my parents' support from time to time. Otherwise, I would have been hungry long ago with my salary alone."

Cao Yingzi sighed and looked at her mother-in-law and sister-in-law.

"Liu Ming has been unemployed for several months, and the family is struggling to make ends meet. As relatives, you can't just sit there and watch him go hungry, right? I heard that Liu Ming used to hand over all his salary to the family. Now that he's in trouble, you're definitely not going to just sit there and do nothing, right, mother-in-law?"

Seeing Cao Yingzi's half-smiling eyes, Liu's mother wanted to disappear on the spot. How could she ask her for money?

The second child is getting married soon and has many places to spend money. Where can I get the money to subsidize them?

"Yingzi, I feel more sad than anyone that Ming lost his job. But you are also aware of the situation in our family. My sister and I have never worked, and our family relies entirely on your father and the second brother's salary. It is really tight. Mom has always known that you are a capable person, and everyone in your family is also capable. Please Yingzi, find a job for Ming, even if it is a temporary job. With a job, there will be income, and life will get better slowly."

Mother Liu looked at her with a flattering tone.

"Your father and I are both incompetent, so we'll rely on you from tomorrow on. It's normal for a couple to have some bumps in the road, as long as we don't take it to heart, we can just live our lives as usual."

"My mother-in-law is right, but Liu Ming is so anxious and angry about his work that he has become a sluggish person. I also want to find him a job, but you know, asking for favors now costs money. No one will do anything for you just by talking."

Mother Liu: “…”

She also understood that asking for help from others and using connections all cost money, and because of this, her daughter had never found a job. But now that her son was married, the couple had to take care of the matter themselves, and they, as parents, were powerless.

Seeing her mother-in-law's defensive look, Cao Yingzi smiled even more brilliantly.

"Since we've met today, mother-in-law, go back and talk to father-in-law, and ask him to give me 500 yuan to smooth things over for me. If you don't like it, you can find a job for Liu Ming yourself, I have no objection."

"What? Five hundred, you robbed... ahem, Yingzi, we really don't have any money at home, aren't you making things difficult for me?"

Mother Liu was so shocked that she almost jumped up. She immediately looked at Cao Yingzi with an unfriendly look.

"How can it be considered as a dilemma? Isn't my second brother getting married? I heard that you are planning to have a grand wedding. You didn't spend any money on my wedding with Liu Ming. I don't expect you to treat us equally, but you can't be too biased either."

Cao Yingzi didn't care about her mother-in-law's attitude at all. She stroked her red nails.

"If you really have no money, just return the home appliances I bought to us. If you sell them, maybe you can buy some gifts to give away as a way to build relationships. I bought those things for Liu Ming, and now I'm using them on him, so I can make the best use of them."

Hearing Cao Yingzi's tone, Mother Liu's face turned blue and red, and her chest heaved up and down with anger.

Before she could speak, Liu Min spoke first, "No, those things are ours. Without those appliances, my second sister-in-law will not agree to the marriage."

My mother had already promised her that when she got married, she would give her the washing machine as a dowry. How could she let my sister-in-law take it away?

"Tsk~, you are a girl with a rural household registration, you don't even have a proper job, and you live on your brother's salary every day, how can you have the right to say anything?"

"I'll give you one day to think it over. Either give me money or take away my stuff. Choose one of the two. Otherwise, don't blame me, Cao Yingzi, for being ruthless... Of course, I can also return Liu Ming to you, take away all your stuff, and part ways with you."

After saying that, without waiting for Liu's mother to react, she turned around and walked away in her high heels. After two or three meters, she turned back and looked at Liu Ming.

"What are you still standing there for? Do you want to get a divorce and reunite with your family?"
