Chapter 166 Xu Xue's True Colors



Xu Guiying speaks in a structured and logical manner.

Xu Songyuan believed most of it.

His face turned pale, and he swayed, almost falling down.

Xu Guiying quickly helped him sit down.

Xu Xue, who was treated like his own daughter, actually treated him like this.

How is this any different from murder for money?

Not only that, they also wanted him to pay off the debts of Xu Zhongtang's gambling son!

That's shameless!

Xu Songyuan's face turned from white to green, and then he heard his eldest sister speak:

“I’ll take a day off tomorrow afternoon. Come to the city and I’ll take you for a full physical exam. You’re not allowed to do any more drug trials. If you need a job, I’ll find you one. That’s better than you doing drug trials.”

Xu Songyuan frowned. "Big sister, it should be fine. I just don't have any strength."

Xu Guiying glared at him, "No problem now, but what about later?!"

Xu Songyuan remained silent.

Xu Guiying then asked, "How do you plan to handle this matter? Are you still going to prepare a dowry for Xu Xue?"

Xu Songyuan frowned and hesitated to speak.

Xu Guiying squinted, "Xu Songyuan, let me tell you, if you still dare to give money to Xu Xue, I'd rather not have a brother like you. All that riding all this way here was for nothing."

Xu Songyuan became anxious upon hearing this.

"Big sister! That's not what I meant!" Xu Songyuan sighed. "The dowry was eight hundred yuan, and I have a total of more than five hundred yuan now. Xu Xue knows this amount too."

Xu Guiying squinted her eyes and said, "It's simple. Xu Zhongtang wanted to rob you, so you can find someone to tell you that you were planning to withdraw all the money and give it to Xu Xue for safekeeping, but you ran into a thief, and you can even make Xu Zhongtang's family fight like dogs."

Xu Songyuan immediately stood up. "Big sister, are you saying we should pretend Xu Peng stole it?"

Who is Xu Peng?

"Xu Zhongtang's son?"

"Yes, yes, yes."

Xu Guiying agreed, nodding, "That's right. Anyway, Xu Peng also owes gambling debts, so he has a motive to rob him."

Xu Songyuan swallowed hard, his forehead wrinkles tightening and relaxing. He was still shocked; he never imagined that Xu Xue was this kind of person!

Although I've only spent a short time with my older sister.

But Xu Songyuan trusted her from the bottom of his heart, and thinking about what his older sister said, there were signs of that before.

Xu Guiying said a few more words.

After listening, Xu Songyuan couldn't help but give Xu Guiying a thumbs up.

The Song family's life is getting better and better. Xu Guiying doesn't want her younger brother to have to work in the fields like an old ox. Now there are opportunities everywhere. Her younger brother has more than 500 yuan in his hand. He can set up a food stall in the city and it will be better than staying in the village.

Xu Guiying said with a serious expression, "If you still have doubts, observe Xu Xue more tonight."

“Xu Songyuan, it’s not that adopting a daughter is wrong, but your second uncle’s whole family is dishonest. Xu Xue probably already knew about her background. After being influenced by her surroundings, how good can she be to you, her adoptive father? Xu Zhongtang’s family has many members, but in this family, there’s only you! Besides bullying you, who else can they exploit?”

"Also, Xu Xue won't let this go easily. If she finds out you're sick, she'll definitely want to get rid of you. That will be the best opportunity to separate the family and household registration."

Xu Songyuan felt a pang of sadness, "Big sister..."

Xu Guiying stood up. "Brother, it's settled then. We'll meet outside the hospital at 2 PM tomorrow to get a thorough check-up. Otherwise, I won't feel at ease."

Xu Songyuan nodded, as if he had made up his mind.

"become!"

Xu Guiying was relieved.

"Alright, let's keep this a secret for now and not let outsiders know."

Xu Songyuan: "Sister, I know, don't worry!"

Xu Guiying: "After the check-up tomorrow, I'll take you home for dinner and introduce you to your brother-in-law and nephew."

Xu Songyuan then realized that he had been talking about his sister the whole time and didn't know how she was doing.

Xu Guiying: "I work at the supply and marketing cooperative now. Your brother-in-law works at the heavy machinery factory. He has several nephews. I'll tell you more about them tomorrow."

With tears in his eyes, Xu Songyuan held Xu Guiying's hand, his back hunched, and said, "Big sister..."

Xu Guiying patted his shoulder. If it weren't for the late hour and the possibility that Xu Xue might be coming back, Xu Guiying would have cooked him a meal before leaving.

Xu Songyuan led Xu Guiying out the way they came, found the bicycle hidden in the bushes, and watched Xu Guiying leave before returning home.

Now that he knew these things, Xu Songyuan felt a mixture of sarcasm and cold laughter.

He sat under the eaves. Over the years, he had worked himself to the bone to earn money for Xu Xue, and he gave all the money he had to this so-called daughter. Now he still lived in an unrepaired mud house.

Xu Songyuan originally planned to use his savings to renovate the house, but Xu Xue demanded a dowry of 800 yuan.

The Xu Zhongtang family is heartless; I recalled being robbed twice.

What a coincidence! They were all stolen from Xu Zhongtang!

Xu Xue returned home around 7 o'clock.

Xu Songyuan had already prepared the meal and was just waiting for Xu Xue to return.

When Xu Xue returned, she didn't ask Xu Songyuan a single question. Instead, she asked, "By the way, Dad, when is your next drug trial? We're still short two or three hundred for the dowry. We need to hurry."

Xu Songyuan suppressed his anger and pretended to be nonchalant, saying, "The hospital said it would take some time. If I go tomorrow, won't I be kicked out?"

Xu Xue paused, her hand holding the chopsticks still. "Dad, that's not what I meant."

Xu Songyuan: "I wasn't talking about you. Hurry up and eat. You've lost weight these past few days."

Xu Xue felt a little annoyed and secretly rolled her eyes.

Xu Songyuan was heartbroken.

After finishing her meal, Xu Xue went straight into the house without offering to help wash the dishes.

Xu Songyuan went to wash the dishes but kept coughing, while Xu Xue stayed inside and didn't come out.
