Upon seeing this, Zhong Qiufeng hurriedly scrambled into her room, retrieved the deposit slip, and reluctantly handed it to her mother.
Upon seeing the deposit slip handed to her by her daughter, Hong Chunjiao hurriedly snatched it away.
Zhong Qiufeng was reluctant to let go, so she took a feather duster and slapped her daughter's wrist hard before the pain made her suddenly loosen her grip.
Zhong Qiufeng clutched her wrist, which had been slapped, and said angrily, "So stingy! You have so much money, but you won't give me any. Are you saving it to take to your grave?"
Although the sound was faint, Hong Chunjiao and Zhong Mingxue still managed to hear it.
Hong Chunjiao was so angry that she wanted to use the feather duster in her hand to beat her unfilial daughter to death.
Although she was trembling with anger, she first checked the deposit slip that her daughter had returned to her.
However, upon closer inspection, Hong Chunjiao felt a white sweat seeping out from her back.
"Old...old man, can you take a look? Am I seeing things?"
She handed the deposit slip in her hand to Zhong Mingxue, who was standing next to her, and pointed to the name on the deposit slip, her voice trembling slightly.
Seeing his wife's pale face, Zhong Mingxue immediately took the deposit slip to check it. He discovered that the name on the deposit slip was not his daughter Zhong Qiufeng's, but his son-in-law Su Yaping's.
She gasped in shock and looked up sharply at her daughter.
Then, pointing to the name on the certificate, he angrily asked, "What's going on? Why is Su Yaping's name on this deposit slip?"
Zhong Qiufeng was in excruciating pain from the beating, but upon hearing her father's questioning voice, she retorted with a haughty tone, "What's wrong with Yaping's name? He's the father of my children. Whether we keep his name or mine, it's all the same!"
Besides, I don't even have this deposit certificate!
Zhong Mingxue felt his blood pressure spike after hearing his daughter's words.
I considered ignoring my daughter and going to the bank to ask, but it's already dark, and the bank must be closed.
Suppressing his panic, Zhong Mingxue glared sharply at Zhong Qiufeng and asked, "Where's Su Yaping? It's so late, why hasn't he come back yet?"
Zhong Qiufeng rubbed the spot where blood had been drawn from her, hissing as she did so.
Hearing her father's words, she pursed her lips and replied angrily, "Yaping has been working overtime at the factory these past few days. Dad, Mom, he's your son-in-law, practically your son. Can you please stop treating him like a thief?"
Upon hearing his daughter's words, Zhong Mingxue's unease intensified.
Hong Chunjiao was already swaying precariously, clutching the old man's arm, her face full of panic: "What should we do, old man? Why am I so panicked?"
Zhong Mingxue patted his wife's hand and comforted her, "Don't panic, wait at home first, I'll go to Yaping's factory to see him."
Now, he only feels less uneasy when he sees Su Yaping.
However, let's calm the old woman down first, lest she be overwhelmed by the shock and something bad happens to her.
Hearing the old man say this, Hong Chunjiao nodded repeatedly and told Zhong Mingxue to go find his son-in-law first.
She and her daughter were left alone at home, staring at each other with hatred in their eyes.
As time passed, Zhong Qiufeng, who had initially been so confident that Su Yaping would never betray her and her son, eventually began to show a hint of hesitation on her face.
She remembered with a sense of unease that Su Yaping had said the factory was busy and required overtime work three days ago, and it seemed that Su Yaping hadn't been home for three days!
