Chapter 115 Mom, you don't want me anymore.
It seems so... no.
Su Youfu was furious.
Li Banxia sneered, "I used to treat you like a treasure and protect you in every way. I was blind, not because I couldn't beat you. You really thought you were something special."
Su Youfu gritted his teeth, “...Li Banxia.”
But he only dared to be powerless and furious. Faced with the menacing Brother Li and Li Banxia, who was waiting to find fault with him and ruin him, he gritted his teeth and dared not say another word.
"Go ahead and move, move, move everything. Let's see what your son and daughter will eat and use when they come back."
Li Banxia ignored him and gestured for Brother Li to continue digging the tree.
I deliberately chose a location when planting the tree, not against a corner of the wall, but next to the vegetable garden. I would also water the tree when I watered the vegetable garden. The roots of the tree were not compacted, so it was relatively easy to dig.
Old Su found an iron shovel and joined in the digging.
As they were digging, Su Lao Er and Su Lao San entered the yard one after the other.
Upon seeing Li Banxia, Su Lao Er was taken aback.
Su Laosan grinned and moved closer, "Mom, you're back, Uncle..."
Brother Li glanced at the two brothers and hummed in agreement.
Su Laosan asked again, "You're all back now, is Third Uncle back too? Is he feeling better?"
"Alright, transfer back to another hospital and take your time to recover."
Li Banxia gave a simple explanation, telling him to go to his neighbor's house next door to borrow a hoe to dig up the wisteria tree.
Su Laosan said "Oh," and seeing Su Laoer walking towards the bedroom, he called out, "Second Brother, the front door is this way, let's go borrow the iron shovel together..."
Su Lao Er ignored him, went back inside, quickly took his clothes, rolled them up with a bed sheet, tied them twice, took them out, and walked out of the yard under Su Lao San's glare, stuffing them into the cabinet on the truck.
Then jump down and go to your neighbor's house to borrow an iron shovel.
The series of actions left even the usually composed Su Laosan speechless.
After Su Lao Er returned with the iron hoe, he chuckled and said, "Second brother, you're so cunning! I was wondering why you'd been staring at the cabinet and bedsheets so intently these past few days. Were you already planning to move them all out together when Mom came back? You're so unfair, you didn't even remind me..."
Su Lao Er slammed the iron shovel on the ground and glanced at him sideways.
He said, "Okay, next time I'll feed you shit."
Su Laosan made a disgusted "Ugh" sound, "...Can't you change it to something else? I don't like eating that stuff. What kind of shit-eating fetish do you have?"
Su Lao Er laughed in anger.
With a twitch of his lips, he told him to get lost.
Su Laosan chuckled and followed suit, wrapping his clothes in a tattered bed sheet and stuffing them into the same closet as Su Laoer's clothes.
He hurriedly went to borrow an iron shovel and ran back to work. No matter how much effort he put in, he maintained a proper working posture.
Five people dug from dawn till dusk, barely managing to dig out the tree roots.
But clearly, one truck couldn't take away the belongings and the tree.
Brother Li told Su Lao Er and Su Lao San to keep an eye on things for a while, and then they would deliver the goods over there and come back to haul the trees.
Su Laosan looked at Li Banxia expectantly, "Mom, you must remember to come back and pick up my second brother and me."
Li Banxia glanced at Su Lao Er.
Su Lao Er pursed his lips, but this time he did not avoid Li Banxia's gaze and looked straight at her.
Li Banxia sighed softly, turned around and left.
Su Lao Er's expression changed immediately, and he unconsciously took a step forward.
Li Banxia opened her mouth as if to say something, but watched helplessly as Su Hongmei grabbed her. "Mom, don't you want me anymore?"
Yes, your mom doesn't want you anymore!
Su Youfu scoffed from the side, "She didn't even leave you a bowl, and you still ask such a stupid question."
"mom……"
Su Hongmei's eyes were red, and she pouted, clutching Li Banxia's clothes with a wronged expression.
“Even if you call her again, she won’t want you anymore. She got a good deal and now has someone backing her up. From now on, she can earn her own money and spend it all by herself. Her life couldn’t be more carefree. What use are you burdens? You two are all just bloodsuckers…”
Li Banxia didn't say a word, and the father and daughter had already set up the stage for her.
She gave a mocking smile, looked up at Su Youfu, and nodded first, "You're right about one thing. I do look down on them for only sucking my blood, treating me like a maid, thinking that just because they call me 'Mom,' I deserve it!"
"You have three children each, and Su Hongying is already married, so you only need to support two. In the end, you are the one who benefits. You haven't done anything for so many years, yet your children are still willing to call you Dad."
Su Youfu spat at her, "Don't they call you Mom?"
"Yes, before this, I had a clear conscience towards them. You are the one who has a guilty conscience!"
Li Banxia glanced down at Su Hongmei and said, "I gave you chances, but you didn't want them. Now that you've made your choice, don't keep asking me questions like 'Do I want you?' It's really foolish."
Su Hongmei felt a chill run down her spine from that glance, and hearing Li Banxia's words only fueled her fear. She gripped Li Banxia's clothes even tighter.
Her voice became shrill, "Mom, you can't do this! I had no idea you and Dad were getting a divorce. I thought you were just having a fight, that you'd move out in a huff and then move back in..."
Li Banxia looked at her.
"You didn't know we were getting a divorce, and you didn't know your third uncle was injured? Su Hongmei, you're not a three-year-old. Who are you trying to fool with these words?"
Su Hongmei's heart trembled. Knowing she was in the wrong, she pouted and called out "Mom" with a dependent look, calling out "Mom" again and again.
This face overlapped with the one from her previous life, the one that had mocked her and said, "Mom, you'll freeze to death in Northeast China." Li Banxia's eyes remained expressionless as she coldly said, "Let go."
Su Laoda felt a little reluctant and opened his mouth to speak, but his wife stopped him and gently shook her head.
Su Youfu spat, "Su Hongmei, have some backbone of the Su family! If she doesn't want you, she still has me. I earn over a hundred yuan a month, would I deprive you of a single bite to eat!"
Su Hongmei turned her head to look at Su Youfu, then looked back at the indifferent Li Banxia, slowly released her hand, and stood aside with her head down.
"Li Banxia, you've gone to such extremes. Don't regret it when you're old, not having a daughter to serve you tea and water."
Su Youfu glanced smugly at Su Hongmei and mocked Li Banxia.
Li Banxia nodded, "No regrets now that the time has come. Since you've made the choice, don't regret it."
Su Youfu was about to say something more when he saw Li Banxia go straight to the kitchen door and pick up a fire poker.
Alarm bells rang in his head as he glared at Li Banxia. "What are you trying to do now?"
"Take off the clothes I bought you, second brother, light a fire, I'm going to burn all these clothes," Li Banxia said.
Su Youfu's eyes widened, and he shouted, "You dare!"
"I just warned you, if you keep babbling I'd strip you naked and burn you. Why do you think I was threatening you? I was just warning you!"
Li Banxia stared at him with a half-smile.
"You choose to take it off yourself, or I'll beat you until you do. The choice is yours!"
