Chapter 281



"Mom, what do you think we should do about this?"

Su Weidong suddenly learned that it was indeed his wife who pushed Cao Xiaohua and Su Wan off the cliff. He felt mixed emotions and had no clue at all. He could only wait for Old Lady Su to give him a resolution.

"What else can we do? Didn't Xiaohua propose everything? She proposed three options in total for your wife to choose from.

One is for you to compensate her three dollars, the second is for her to call the police, and the third is for her to push your wife off the mountain and have her raped. Tell me, which one do you choose?"

"This……"

Su Weidong's sentiment was the same as He Ailian's. He could not accept any of these three conditions.

The latter two options were dead ends and he definitely couldn't choose them, and the first option required so much money that he simply couldn't afford it.

"Just tell me directly, do you still want to live with He Ailian? Do you want to save three dollars and let her go to jail, or do you want to keep her and find a way to raise the three dollars?"

"Mom, do I even need to ask? Of course I want to keep her here. Not to mention that she has been with me for so long, even for the sake of those children, I can't just abandon her!

What's more, she's pregnant with my child, I...I can't watch her die no matter what."

"That's what I want you to say. Now that you've made up your mind, go back and gather all the money in your family to see how much you still need, and then come back and tell me."

Su Weidong seemed to have heard something from Old Lady Su's words, "Mom, do you want to..."

Old Man Su, who had been silent the whole time, yelled at him, "Your mother asked you to make some money, so just go and make some money. Why are you talking so much nonsense?"

What else did Su Weidong not understand? He hurried out.

After a while, he came back with a roll of money in his hand.

He put the money on the table, some in small and some in whole, the largest denomination was ten and the smallest was one. This time he really took out all his family assets.

Just now He Ailian wanted to take out the change, but her family had to go through the festival, so she took all the money and had no money left. From then on, she didn't even have money to buy salt.

Su Weidong didn't care about that and scolded her, saying that the current situation was all her fault. He then rolled up the money and left.

She didn't dare to say a word. The disaster was caused by her, what else could she say? Not to mention having no money to buy salt, she even had to endure having no money to eat.

Su Weidong counted all the money in front of the old couple, and the total amount was 128.53 cents.

Old Mrs. Su looked at those dimes and knew that he had really taken out all his money.

She said unhappily, "You two have been married for more than ten years, and you have spent a lot of money on mountain products. How come you have only saved this little money? Could it be that He Ailian took all of it to help her parents?"

"Mom, you also know that she has been taking a lot of medicine these days because she is pregnant. She has spent all the money on medicine."

Old Lady Su snorted, "If it weren't for the fact that she still has a baby in her belly, I would have made her suffer.

She has really screwed you over. They say you should marry a virtuous woman. I was blind at first and thought she was pretty good, so I agreed to the marriage. Who could have thought that she turned out to be a dead end? "

"Mom, what's the point of you saying all this? We are separated by a belly and we haven't lived together. Who can tell what kind of person each other is? No matter what, she has given birth to several children for me. I can't just watch her go to jail."

Old Mrs. Su was silent for a while, and then she said to Su Weidong: "I will use the remaining money to help you first. This is the funeral money for your father and me. I can't give it to you. We are so old, and our health is getting worse. This little money is to be saved for our old age.

So even if it is lent to you, you go call He Ailian over, and you two write an IOU to me and your father, which will serve as a certificate, and you will have to pay it back when you have the money."

Su Weidong nodded quickly after hearing this, "Okay, I'll go call her right away."

In order to help them, his parents took out all their savings, and he would certainly pay it back when he had money in the future.

When He Ailian heard that Old Lady Su wanted to lend her money, there was no reason for her to refuse to sign. It was saving her life, so she hurriedly followed Su Weidong to the old couple's room.

Su Weidong wrote the IOU, and the couple signed in front of him.

He Ailian couldn't write and there was no ink in her home, so she followed the man to learn how to write her name stroke by stroke, and finally signed her name crookedly.

Old Man Su took the IOU, took a look at it, and handed it to Old Lady Su.

The old lady couldn't read, so after taking a look at it, she folded the paper in half and held it in her hand.

Even after He Ailian and Su Weidong left, Old Lady Su was still holding the IOU in her hand.

The old couple looked at each other and sighed deeply.

"Well, we've got our coffin books out. If we end up lying in bed and can't move, we'll just have to wait for death."

As she spoke, Old Mrs. Su put the IOU into the small box used to store money.

"What can you do? You live your whole life for them. If they don't live well, how can you live well?

We should help them as much as we can. If they have good intentions, they will give us some of the money. If they don’t, we will just feed them to the dogs.”

"You are an old man who is quite open-minded."

Mrs. Su cursed, and Old Man Su chuckled twice and went to sleep in the inner room.

"By the way, old man, we have taken care of the third son's wife. If Wei Guoguo's girl finds out, will she come and make trouble? If so, we won't be able to help even if we want to."

Old Mrs. Su had just put away the small box containing the IOU when she suddenly thought of Su Wan and asked with some concern.

"That girl is fine, she didn't even have a scratch on her body at that time, what's the big deal? Oh, stop imagining it, go to bed early."

Old Mrs. Su was still a little hesitant. She had already seen Su Wan's powerful side when Li Xiaoni went to give the betrothal gift that day, but she still couldn't agree with it.

She stood up, opened the door and looked towards Cao Xiaohua's house, wanting to remind them to keep this matter a secret and not let Su Wan know about it.

I found that there was no light in their room. I was afraid they had already fallen asleep.

Forget it, let’s talk about it tomorrow.
