Cheng Ye hesitated again. He wanted both of them. Why did everyone force him to choose? Why couldn't they both take a step back and live in harmony?
Why does a good family have to be torn apart?
"Euna, please return some of your money. I know you are filial, but there is no need to sacrifice our entire fortune. It's okay for us to suffer a little, but what will we do after the child is born? Have you ever considered the child's future?"
After all, it is impossible not to blame Pan Ena in his heart. Pan Ena does value her parents' family more than him. This is a fact that he knows but has never dared to face.
Pan Ena scolded confidently, "You are such a rebel. You dare to talk to your wife like this? You still have a job and can continue to make money. Anyway, I will not ask my mother for money. You can just forget about it."
Cheng Miaomiao snatched the passbook and said, "Since the Pan family wants to default on their debt, the sixteen thousand in the passbook should be compensated to me, my dear brother, do you have any objection?"
Pan Ena was angry, "If I give you the money, how will we spend it?"
Cheng Miaomiao learned a trick from Sister Wan and Brother Chen. As long as she is shameless, Jipin will be helpless against her. "If you don't pay, your family will have to pay. You are a family, so someone has to pay."
Before Pan Ena could protest, her mother interrupted her and said, "You said it yourself. Don't ask the Pan family for money anymore. We are even now."
Cheng Miaomiao really felt sorry for Cheng Ye, "You really don't care about the lives of your daughter and son-in-law at all."
Pan's mother didn't care about her daughter's life or death, as long as she didn't try to take her money. "Cheng Ye can still earn money, can your Cheng family still lack them for food?"
Cheng Ye felt disappointed and lost love. He did not take the passbook back, which was considered as his tacit approval of Cheng Miaomiao's behavior. It was not safe to keep the money with him, as he did not know when his wife would transfer it back to her parents' home. It would be better for it to fall into the hands of Cheng family members.
Pan Ena was furious and simply ignored her husband, determined to force him to return the deposit.
Seeing this, Old Lady Cheng finally spoke up and ordered them to leave. "The Cheng family doesn't support idlers. Pan Ena, if you care about your mother's family, then go back with your mother."
Unexpectedly, Gu Wanwan's next suggestion directly shattered Pan Ena and the Pan family's beautiful dream, "Second Aunt, in the future, Cheng Ye's money should be given to you for safekeeping. Otherwise, no matter how much money he makes, it will be wasted. Otherwise, one day you will be left with nothing but your wife. You should find someone who is sensible and virtuous in the future."
Pan Ena was dumbfounded. If Cheng Ye agreed, then it would be wishful thinking for her to get money from her mother-in-law to subsidize her family in the future. After this incident, it would be strange if her parents-in-law were not wary of her. She could no longer be so frivolous as to spend money according to her parents-in-law's mood. "I am Cheng Ye's wife, leave it to me!"
"Cheng Ye's wife can be you or someone else. Even Mingzhu's godmother can meet a scumbag like Chen Shimei, but it doesn't mean Cheng Ye won't meet a philandering scumbag, right?" Gu Wanwan sneered meaningfully, "Second Aunt is still Cheng Ye's biological mother. She won't be so cruel. She will always give you two pocket money to spend. It doesn't need to be too much, just ten yuan, enough for you to use, and save the rest for the children, who still have to go to school in the future."
Fu Jingchen then sneered, "Ten dollars is too much, five dollars is enough."
Madam Cheng II was too lazy to pay attention to Pan Ena and turned to look at Cheng Ye. "If you don't agree, get out of the Cheng family. I will treat you as an old man. No matter how you beg, Pan Ena must leave the Cheng family today. If you continue to be stubborn, the Cheng family will immediately take back your job and deprive you of your status as a child of the Cheng family. I can tell you now that other children can take up the responsibility of the Cheng family, but you, Cheng Ye, cannot, even if Pan Ena gives birth to a son in the future."
"There's no need for you to rush me, Mom. Let's go." Pan Ena pretended to be dignified and turned away. It was unknown whether she did it on purpose, but she took three times the usual time to walk one step, and she looked back at Cheng Ye from time to time.
It was a rare time that Cheng Ye did not beg for mercy. He did not want to get divorced, but he was unwilling to lose the money. The funny thing was that the culprits who made him a pauper were his beloved daughter-in-law and his respected Yue family. Perhaps they would have to be separated for a few days, but he hoped that Pan Ena could change and no longer sacrifice her husband blindly and subsidize her parents' family in the name of filial piety.
It is good to be filial to elders, but one must know when to stop. Ever since Pan Ena came into the family, she has never mentioned the need to be filial to her parents-in-law, and she hasn't even given a penny to her parents. Pan Ena has parents, so does Cheng Ye have none?
This is a clear distinction!
After a few minutes, Cheng Ye tried to persuade her to stay but failed, so Pan Ena couldn't hold back and just turned away.
Qin, Qi, Shu, and Hua returned disappointed. Now everyone in the Cheng family knows the true colors of the Pan family. There is no chance of a closer marriage. Do they really doubt that the Cheng family will value the baby in their sister's belly?
What Pan's mother was thinking was that next time the Cheng family brought Cheng Ye to ask for peace, she would have to cheat them out of money to get back at them.
When the Cheng family regained peace, Mrs. Cheng grabbed her son's ear and said, "Cheng Ye, listen to me clearly. You are not allowed to look for Pan Ena again. The baby in her belly is Jian Congming's. In Wanwan's words, you are the unlucky scapegoat. Captain Tian just admitted this. Believe it or not, if you look for Pan Ena, I will regard you as giving up the Cheng family."
Cheng Ye was startled, and subconsciously chose to believe his wife, "Mom, stop talking, my wife and Jian Congming have nothing to do with each other, it is Jian Congming who has been pestering E'na."
Madam Cheng wanted to scold her son to wake him up, but was stopped by Gu Wanwan. "It's useless. He has been poisoned too deeply. Only when he suffers a little will he wake up. I guess the Pan family is still thinking about how to make things difficult for the Cheng family and how to beg them to take Pan Ena back. Their main purpose is to cheat you out of money. You have to give them 5,000 yuan as compensation before they will let Pan Ena go back to her husband's family."
The Cheng family believed Gu Wanwan's prediction so much that they heard Cheng Miaomiao say, "Second uncle and second aunt, should we tie up Cheng Ye so that he won't run to the Pan family with a smug face and embarrass our Cheng family?"
"I won't." Cheng Ye had seen the true face of the Pan family. Whenever he saw the Yue family, he would think of the more than 10,000 yuan he had lost.
Gu Wanwan glanced at him from the corner of her eye and said, "You don't need to worry about Pan Ena. She is enjoying a good life at her parents' house. How can she care about you? The Pan family will not let go of you, a big fat sheep. They can't wait to come to you."
"Someone behind the scenes is about to show up." Fu Jingchen continued his wife's words and continued to predict the future. "Grandpa Cheng, you'd better be prepared. The Pan family is going to find someone to be a lobbyist. Guess who it is?"
Two days later, Pan Ena started to get anxious when she saw that her husband had not come to pick her up yet.
Just as Sister Wan and Brother Chen expected, the lobbyists showed up.
