Seeing He Ailian running out of Cao Xiaohua's kitchen covered in dust and dirt, Old Mrs. Su was so angry that she couldn't even cook.

She put the spatula in her hand on the stove, stretched her head to look towards Cao Xiaohua's kitchen, and when she found that no one was paying attention, she quickly and quietly slipped away to He Ailian's house.

He Ailian was gnashing her teeth as she examined the wounds on her body, while Da Mi stood aside looking at her mother with a nervous expression, not daring to ask or speak.

When her mother called her to cook, she had already told her that if she heard anything happening at her aunt's house later, she was not to go and see, and just had to cook the meal.

When He Ailian just ran back from Cao Xiaohua's house, she kept gasping for air because of the pain. She just asked He Ailian a question, and was stopped by her.

So Da Mi didn't dare to ask any more questions.

When Old Lady Su came in, she saw several bloody marks on He Ailian's calf.

Her heart sank, and she hurriedly asked, "Is the baby in your belly okay?"

When He Ailian saw that it was Old Lady Su, she quickly replied, "Mom, it's okay. I have been taking good care of her."

Mrs. Su was relieved and snorted:

"Why are you so stupid? I told you yesterday to beg Xiaohua. Why did you make her angry again?"

"Mom, I didn't..."

Before He Ailian finished speaking, she suddenly remembered that Da Mi was still standing in front of her. She didn't want the children to know about the heinous things she had done.

Then he said to her, "Da Mi, go ahead and cook your meal. I want to talk to your grandma about something."

Da Mi went out immediately.

Watching Da Mi's back disappear at the door, He Ailian said to Old Lady Su, "Mom, I didn't want to provoke her, it was Xiao Hua... Her requests are more excessive than the last, and there's nothing I can do about it, right?"

"You still have the nerve to complain that their demands are excessive. Why don't you think about why they are excessive? If you hadn't done those evil things and pushed them off the bed, causing them to miscarry, would they have treated you like this?"

Old Mrs. Su's question made He Ailian speechless.

"It is always harmful to harm others. It is better to do less immoral things in the future and accumulate more virtue for yourself and your children.

I only helped you because of the baby in your belly. I hope you will remember this lesson for the rest of your life and never get conjunctivitis again."

After Mrs. Su finished speaking, she sighed and asked, "What did Xiaohua ask for? Your husband is not at home. Tell me what she wants and I'll see if I can help you solve it."

Hearing this, He Ailian couldn't wait to tell Old Lady Su the method proposed by Cao Xiaohua.

After listening to her, Mrs. Su nodded and said, "Xiaohua didn't mean to force you into a dead end. On the contrary, she gave you a way out. You should be grateful that she didn't bother with you.

If she really wanted to push you into a dead end, she wouldn't ask for three hundred yuan. She would directly ask you for a hundred or a thousand yuan, a number you dare not even think about. That would be asking for your life."

He Ailian was puzzled when she heard this. "Mom, we only have about 100 yuan in total. How can I get 300 yuan for her? I can't even sell my blood for that much money."

Mrs. Su pondered for a while, "Listen to me, agree to Xiaohua's first point first, let her give you a few days, and tell her that you will give her the money as soon as you have enough. Keep her stable first, so that she won't report you in a hurry."

"Mom, where can I go?"

"We can talk about the money after Weidong comes back. Just promise Xiaohua now."

He Ailian didn't understand what Old Lady Su was up to, but looking at her expression, it seemed that she had already thought of a good solution.

Otherwise, she wouldn't look so confident, so she nodded at Old Lady Su.

After dinner, He Ailian went to Cao Xiaohua's house again. This time she told Cao Xiaohua that she agreed to the first point she proposed.

She will find a way to collect the money in the next few days and then hand it over to her.

"These few days? What day are these few days?"

He Ailian had just been crying and saying she couldn't come up with so much money, but she agreed after a short while.

Cao Xiaohua was afraid that she was using a delaying tactic, and if she kept pushing it back, it was possible that she would be abandoned after a long time.

So she had to ask He Ailian to give her a specific date, otherwise she would never agree.

"Is a week okay? Give me a week. You know money is not that easy to come by..."

"Three days, I will give you three days at most. If the money is still not enough after three days, I will not say any more to you and will go directly to the police station."

Seeing Cao Xiaohua's firm attitude and cold tone, it seemed that there was no room for maneuver.

This time, He Ailian remembered Mrs. Su's instructions carefully and did not dare to bargain with Cao Xiaohua anymore, for fear of annoying her and causing her to get angry on the spot.

So she agreed first, "Okay, just as you said, three days. I will definitely find a way to send the money to you in three days."

The next evening, Su Weidong returned.

As soon as he got home, Old Lady Su called him over and told him all the good things He Ailian had done.

When Su Weidong heard that it was really his wife who did it, he was so angry that he turned around and went to settle the score with He Ailian.

He had always chosen to believe He Ailian, thinking that she would never do such a cruel thing, but in the end, he actually believed a liar.

He was a little overwhelmed.

"Okay, she's been beaten a lot these past two days. If you want to beat her, you have to wait a couple of days, otherwise the baby in her belly might not survive."

After hearing what Old Lady Su said, Su Weidong managed to suppress his anger.

"Mom, what do you say we should do? Xiaohua won't just give up like that, right?"

Old Lady Su rolled her eyes at him and said, "What do you think? If it was your wife who was pushed off the roof, would you let the murderer go so easily?"

Su Weidong shook his head. Of course he wouldn't.
