Chapter 127: Don't want those three?
"Thank you, Mom. We're off now."
Su Lao Er was excited and dragged Su Lao San outside.
Su Laosan kept saying, "Second Brother, money, money! If we don't have any money, shall we go to the village? It's so far..."
Then she turned her head and called for her mother.
Li Banxia handed over ten yuan.
Su Lao Er took the money and said seriously, "Mom, I'll pay you back when I get my allowance."
"I understand." Li Banxia waved her hand.
The two brothers darted out again.
Seeing that Su Lao Er was alright, Su Lao Da and his wife suggested going to help out at Yao's eldest brother's company.
Because it was newly opened, they hadn't hired anyone yet, so the couple went to help out and keep the place afloat.
Li Banxia said, "Go ahead, learn more from your brother-in-law, be quick-witted, and remember to take good care of Yao Yao."
"Okay, Mom."
After the young couple left, the kitchen stove was also built up.
Brother Li saw Xiao Zhanyou off.
When I returned, I helped Li Banxia cultivate the vegetable garden. The wisteria trellis was also rebuilt, similar to the one in the auto parts factory's residential area. However, many branches of the trees were cut off, so even if the wisteria trellis is built quickly, it will not be able to have the beautiful scenery of the past until next year.
Li Banxia tilted her head back, squinted slightly, met the sunlight streaming through the leaves, and took a deep breath.
The brother and sister chatted casually.
Brother Li suddenly asked Li Banxia, "Are you really not going to care about those three?"
Li Banxia paused for a moment.
She hummed in agreement, "No, I've raised them all, I owe them nothing, and I don't expect them to support me in my old age. From now on... let's each go our own way."
"Little sister..."
Brother Li sighed with heartache and gave Li Banxia a bad idea.
"If you're angry, I'll tell your second brother to go over there and beat up those guys surnamed Su, one by one, with sacks over their heads. How about that?"
Li Banxia, "..."
"Brother, has Kong Qing said what she wants to do after completing her doctorate? Does she want to stay at her current university to teach?"
Brother Li was secretly plotting how to beat up Su Youfu when he heard this, and immediately wilted.
“She didn’t say, I don’t know. She’s nothing like she was when she was little, when she would tell me everything. Now… every time she calls, it’s ‘Dad, where’s Mom?’”
Brother Li was unhappy, Brother Li sighed.
On the other side, Su Lao Er and Su Lao San circled around a few times and cornered Cui Yuxia and her brother in a Western restaurant.
Su Laosan came running over to report the battle situation to Su Laoer.
"He said he's the factory manager's brother-in-law. He came in wanting to eat Australian lobster, drink red wine, and eat pasta. Second brother, Cui Yuxia, this blind date of yours, seems to be rich. I just inquired about this restaurant. They said there's a minimum spending requirement of one hundred yuan per person. We've only got three yuan left from our ten yuan. Shall we go in?"
"Go in, why won't you go in?"
Su Lao Er stared at Cui Yuxia's smiling face, which was still dazzlingly beautiful even at this moment.
"Second brother, you don't still have feelings for Cui Yuxia, do you?"
Su Lao San noticed that Su Lao Er was staring intently at him, so he slapped him on the arm and said, "That's a walking green hat tree. If you don't want to be cuckolded, don't be stupid."
Su Lao Er sighed and asked Su Lao San, "Don't you think she's very pretty?"
"What's the use of being pretty? She's not the kind of person who can live a proper life. Second brother, don't repeat the same mistake... Hey, second brother, did I use an idiom? I didn't use it wrong this time, did I? Hehe."
Su Lao Er gave Su Lao San a disdainful look.
Su Laosan nudged him, stood on tiptoe and peeked inside, "Hey, she moved, Second Brother, is she going to the bathroom? Look!"
Su Lao Er looked over and saw the direction Cui Yuxia was heading, and nodded.
"Walk."
He swaggered in, and Su Laosan exclaimed, but failed to grab him, watching helplessly as the waiter smiled and arranged for Su Laoer to sit at the table next to Cui Yuxia's.
When Cui saw him, his eyes widened and his face turned extremely ugly.
The man opposite him followed his gaze and saw Su Lao Er, asking, "You know him?"
"I don't know him!" Cui Xiaodi blurted out.
Su Lao Er glanced at him, curled his lips, and beckoned Su Lao San over.
The waiter handed him a menu and asked, "Sir, what would you like to eat?"
Su Lao Er glanced at it and tapped the table.
"I'll have a glass of lemonade first. I'm going to the restroom, and I'll order when I get back."
He gestured for Su Laosan to sit down.
The waiter smiled and pointed out the location of the restroom.
Su Lao Er got up, asked the waiter to leave the menu for Su Lao San, and went to the restroom himself.
Just then, Cui Yuxia, who had just come out of the restroom, was blocked at the restroom door.
Cui Yuxia nearly bumped into Su Lao Er, who took a step back. "Cui Yuxia."
"Su Min'an, what are you doing here?!"
Cui Yuxia looked up and saw Su Lao Er, and was stunned for a moment.
"I've come to find you."
Su Yuxia frowned. "What do you want from me? We're over. I have nothing to do with you anymore..."
"Yeah, I also think that since you've been going on so many blind dates behind my back, it's time for our relationship to end."
Su Lao Er lowered his eyes slightly and glanced at her, "Since we have no relationship anymore, please return the money you swindled from me. Since we met, it's been more than four hundred. I'll give you four hundred because you're pretty. Return the money."
"What money?"
Cui Yuxia looked at her with a "Are you kidding me?" expression. "That was money you, as my boyfriend, voluntarily spent on me. Why should I pay it back?"
"Target? Voluntary?"
Su Lao Er chuckled sarcastically, "I didn't do it willingly. It's because you two siblings always eat like starving ghosts, always picking the expensive things! Besides, do you even consider me your girlfriend? Who goes on blind dates one after another behind their partner's back? You practically expect your blind date to pay for all three meals a day..."
"Su Min'an, do you have to be so rude? Who's been hiding something from you? You just disappeared suddenly, why should I stay by your side? I'm not Wang Baochuan."
Cui Yuxia scoffed, "You still have the nerve to ask me for money? I haven't even asked you for compensation for emotional distress... I have no money."
"Hmm, fine, you don't have to pay me back. Then I'll go chat with your blind date for four hundred yuan. I heard he's the brother-in-law of some factory manager. What do you think he'd think if he knew you'd been on so many blind dates..."
Before Su Lao Er could finish speaking, Cui Yuxia interrupted him in a shrill voice, "You dare!"
"Give it a try?" Su Lao Er said with a smile.
After saying that, he turned and walked out.
Cui Yuxia panicked instantly and instinctively grabbed Su Lao Er's arm, crying out, "Brother Min'an, Brother Min'an, don't do this, I'm scared... We were good friends for a while, but you broke your promise and never contacted me. My parents were pressuring me, so I finally met him. How am I supposed to face people like this now?"
As she spoke, her eyes filled with tears, and she looked up at Su Lao Er.
This posture made her look even more pitiful.
Su Lao Er sighed.
