Chapter 55: Fear of Arranged Marriage (Page 1/2)
"Dad, Mom."
It was not late when they got home. Han's father and mother were both in the yard, so Jiang Qian called out to them with a smile.
When Han's father and mother saw them coming back, they smiled and asked, "Did you come back after dinner?"
"Well, my mother made us some chicken noodle soup and told us to eat it before coming back." Jiang Qian smiled.
When the nephews and nieces in the yard heard the words "chicken noodle soup", they slurped and were extremely envious!
As for Han Shimin and Li Xia, they were both in the room.
Ignoring them, Jiang Qian and Han Shiguo went to Jiang Xiaogu's house to sit for a while and say goodbye to her as they were leaving tomorrow.
Jiang Xiaogu also knew about this and asked them to be careful on the road.
The two of them came back soon and went straight to Han's father and mother's room.
"When we go out, we have to lock the doors of the three rooms, but the keys will be left with you, parents," said Han Shiguo.
His eldest brother got the three rooms in the west, and he got the three rooms in the east, but he still suffered a bit of a loss because one of the three rooms had been used to store sundries before. Of course, it has been cleared out now, and after being cleaned, it can still be lived in.
Father Han nodded, "Okay."
Mother Han said to Jiang Qian, "Qianqian, this is your first time there, and it's winter now. It's even colder there than here, so you have to take good care of yourself."
Jiang Qian: "Don't worry, mother. I can take care of myself. Besides, there is the World Kingdom. Even if I can't adapt, I will learn to adapt."
Han's mother was very satisfied. Just as she was about to say something, she heard Han Shimin and Li Xia arguing outside.
"What happened between my brother and sister-in-law?" Han Shiguo asked.
Before they returned home today, Li's mother had already arrived, so they knew that Li's mother had been there.
"His mother-in-law came to borrow money today. You don't know this, but I've never seen a lion ask for so much. She knew her daughter got more than 500 yuan when the family was divided, so she asked to borrow 500 yuan back. She said that the house was leaking, and if it snowed this year, it would probably collapse. She wanted to rebuild a brick house before it snowed."
When Han's mother talked about Li's mother, her tone was full of contempt.
In her eyes, Li's mother is just asking for trouble!
As a result, Li Xia, the daughter, actually wanted to borrow. Although not 500, she planned to lend 200 to her mother!
However, Han's mother was not going to stop him. Even if all 500 yuan was lent out, she would not stop him.
After the separation, she would not interfere in their family affairs anymore. Even if they were to run out of food, she would watch them starve, because they would not learn their lesson unless they went hungry.
She and Han's father can help for a while, but not for a lifetime. Some sufferings have to be experienced by oneself.
But in the end it was not loaned because Han Shimin disagreed.
He didn't hesitate and directly rejected his mother-in-law, saying that if the need arose, he could borrow fifty yuan, but he had to ask his uncle to come and borrow it, and he also had to write a promissory note.
When Li's mother heard this, she was furious and asked Han Shimin what he meant by being her son-in-law. Was he looking down on her?
Li Xia also stood on her mother's side and said arrogantly that she would divorce her if the money was not lent today.
This sentence completely annoyed Han Shimin. He took out the marriage certificate and dragged Li Xia to get a divorce. Whoever didn't divorce would be the grandson!
Li Xia was suppressed.
She was just trying to scare him. How could she dare to divorce him? Where would she live after the divorce? She was crazy to get a divorce.
Not to mention divorce, even when her mother wanted to take her back to her parents' home, she didn't dare to go back.
There was no other reason. Han Shimin did not stop her, but left a cold message, "If you dare to leave this door today, I will let Widow Zhao come in and set the table tomorrow. If you don't believe me, try it."
Li Xia was really scared to death.
I had originally wanted to make those little tricks of taking advantage of Qiao disappear completely in an instant!
Even if her mother pointed at her nose and scolded her and told them not to go back to visit relatives, she would not dare to go.
