Those who came to watch the spectacle scattered in a panic, hiding far away to observe the commotion.
Meng Shuyun has changed her personality!
She used to be very obedient to her two sons and was kind-hearted, but since yesterday she has become irritable and even violent when she gets angry.
Su Xiangbei watched as his mother fought fiercely with someone, holding her own, while the aunt, having suffered a loss, slunk home.
The neighbors around him were all watching the spectacle, showing him no respect whatsoever and making him a laughingstock in front of so many people.
His mother is really different from before!
Now they don't even care about the grandson in Jiang Xue's belly.
Su Xiangbei cried out in grief and indignation, "Mother, don't go too far!"
Don't you even recognize me as your son anymore?
We came back to see you out of kindness, and you treat us like this, arguing with us over something as simple as a door. Are you even my own mother?
Jiang Xue stomped her feet in exasperation, seeing that Su Xiangbei was such a brainless idiot who couldn't get to the point for ages.
Whether they acknowledge her or not is completely unimportant. They've come back to divide the money. She's pregnant with the Su family's grandson, so she should get at least a thousand or a few hundred yuan!
Su Dahai works at a steel factory and doesn't spend much money throughout the year. Isn't all that money going to his wife?
His eyes darted around, and an idea popped into his head.
Jiang Xue clutched her stomach, frowned, and grabbed Su Xiangbei's arm, calling out fearfully, "Xiangbei, my stomach hurts, will something happen? What should I do?"
My stomach hurts, and my son is probably scared inside me, so he's warning me!
"I hope I don't miscarry!"
Jiang Xue screamed in terror, tears streaming down her face. Su Xiangbei looked at Jiang Xue, whose face had turned pale, with a tense expression and was extremely anxious.
"Xiaoxue, does your stomach hurt a lot? Is there anything else that's uncomfortable? I'll take you to the clinic now, just hang in there."
Meng Shuyun, the mother of six children, knew perfectly well what Jiang Xue was plotting after all the commotion she'd caused.
Not to mention her robust physique, which was as strong as an ox, her pregnancy wasn't over yet, so her stomach wasn't going to start hurting so easily.
He glanced at it, then locked the bicycle in his room; this door probably wouldn't be fixed today.
Seeing that her mother-in-law had no reaction at all, and even locked the bicycle in the room, Jiang Xue became anxious, pinched her thigh hard, and tears streamed down her face.
"Heading north, bicycle, Mom locked it inside the house, how are we going to get to the clinic without a bike!"
We're in a hurry to get back, and we don't have much money on us. Go ask Mom for 100 yuan, and then get her bicycle to take me to the doctor.
Su Xiangbei was worried about Jiang Xue's unborn child and knew he didn't have enough money, so he banged on the door repeatedly.
"Mom, Xiaoxue's stomach hurts because of you. Give me two hundred yuan, and I'll take Xiaoxue to the clinic. Also, get the bicycle out."
What if I have to give birth? Mom, can you give me five hundred yuan?
Xiaoxue is carrying our precious grandson, nothing can happen to him, you wouldn't want to see two lives lost, would you?"
Meng Shuyun felt both amused and saddened inside the house. Su Xiangbei, who seemed honest and simple, was actually very cunning and used someone's life to threaten her.
They still want their bicycles back; once they've ridden them away, can they get them back?
She opened the door without holding back and slapped him hard across his dark face. "You still know that human life is at stake? The village doctor is just 500 meters to the left of the door. You could have taken him there in that time."
"You were thinking of going to the clinic, but with your wife yelling so loudly right now, you'd probably kill both you and the baby before you even got halfway there. What's the point of going? I'm not a doctor."
Su Xiangbei was stunned by the beating, but when he came to his senses, he immediately picked up the person and rushed towards the village doctor's house.
Jiang Xue felt very aggrieved being held by Su Xiangbei. This clueless guy punched her on the back a few times in anger.
Once they were away from the courtyard, he grabbed Su Xiangbei's ear and yelled, "Su Xiangbei, why are you going to see a doctor if you don't have money? Have you forgotten why we came back?"
I heard from my aunt that your brother was robbed and ended up in the police station. Now you don't ask your mother for money, and she's completely biased towards you.
Tomorrow, or even tonight, I'll probably have to take the money to the police station to bail out your brother, Su Xiangyang.
"You think you'll get a single penny then? Do you even have a brain?"
After his initial shock subsided, Su Xiangbei saw that his wife was completely unharmed. He became furious, his face turning red and his neck bulging, and he began to rant and rave.
"Xiaoxue, is your stomach no longer hurting?" Su Xiangbei touched Jiang Xue's stomach, still shaken.
Jiang Xue twisted Su Xiangbei's ear and rotated it 180 degrees: "Did you even listen to what I said? You're still thinking about my belly. Why don't you think of a way to get your mother's money?"
"What could possibly be wrong with me? It's all because of your mother."
Su Xiangbei covered his ear with one hand and held Jiang Xue's stomach with the other, fearing something might happen. He breathed a sigh of relief when he heard that everything was alright. He then remembered Su Xiangyang and asked him what was wrong.
"My aunt really saw Xiangyang being taken to the police station. When did that happen?"
"My aunt saw it with her own eyes this afternoon. Your mother is really something, going through all this trouble at her age, trying to get a divorce."
If we're divorced, then we're divorced. We should still split the money. Don't think we're so easy to fool; we won't give you a single cent.
"They sent us away, and they might use the money to bail your brother out right now, leaving us with nothing."
Su Xiangbei pondered with a long face. His mother usually favored Su Xiangyang the most, so maybe she really wanted to leave all the money to him.
Not only did he, as the eldest brother, not get a single penny, but he also had to support them in their old age. He got absolutely no benefits...
Su Xiangbei's eyes darkened, and he comforted Jiang Xue, saying, "I know. We have a share of the money too. The third brother made his own mistakes, what does it have to do with us? The most important thing now is the baby in your belly. Just in case, let the doctor check your belly."
Meng Shuyun exhaled a breath of stale air. Su Xiangbei was also a scoundrel. Jiang Xue whispered in her ear, wondering what other foolish things he would do next.
He took out the tin box containing the money. There were quite a few grain coupons, and he counted that he still had eighty-six yuan, all of which he had saved up little by little.
We can't just sit around and do nothing. Once we bring Xiuju back, we'll start a small business. In this day and age, there's plenty of opportunity. We can't afford to starve to death.
Su Dahai pays ten yuan to the household every month, and keeps the rest of his salary for himself. She doesn't know exactly how much he earns. She takes out the letter of introduction, wraps the money in several layers of handkerchiefs, and puts it under her pillow.
I'll go to town tomorrow and buy a bicycle, so that neither of them will keep thinking about it.
The next morning, Meng Shuyun rode her bicycle into town before dawn. One has to admit, youth is truly wonderful!
I didn't feel tired even after riding five miles; I took a sip of water and continued riding.
At this time, minibuses were economical and affordable, costing only two cents for a one-way ticket. If you could drive, you should invest in this line of work.
The surrounding villages all revolve around Anlin County. Following her memory to the black market, she drove through a maze of alleys until an old man eating sunflower seeds stopped her car.
"Hey, young lady, where are you going?"
