Wang Lanhua licked her lips. "Nianxue, I've been walking for most of the day, and I'm quite thirsty."
Her meaning was clear: "Buy me a soft drink too!"
Are you thirsty?
Then you'd better hurry back!
There's plenty of water at home; you can drink as much as you want.
Why are you still talking to my sister-in-law? Aren't you hot?
Gu Yanliu rolled her eyes at her; she had been putting up with her for a long time.
It's like a fly, so annoying!
Every time she comes to see her sister-in-law, it's never a good thing!
A flash of anger crossed Wang Lanhua's eyes. This brat was really disrespecting her.
She's an elder, after all.
"Hey, you little brat, don't you have any manners?"
No matter what, I am still your sister-in-law's mother.
If you look down on me, it means you look down on your sister-in-law.
Nianxue, why is your life so miserable!
Not only did you marry a jerk, but your sister-in-law is also domineering. How are you going to live like this?
As she spoke, she pretended to wipe the corners of her eyes twice.
Watching her impressive performance, combining singing and martial arts, Su Nianxue's lips curled into a mocking smile, and she said indifferently,
"I am indeed unlucky!"
Being caught up in this situation, with my stepmother trying to scheme against me, my life is truly more bitter than gall!
"You brat, what are you saying?"
No matter what, I'm still your mother.
Don't think that just because you're married you're all grown up and I won't dare beat you up!
Wang Lanhua picked up a stick from the ground and instinctively reached out to hit her.
This brat is really stubborn; she's going to have to teach her a lesson today.
Su Nianxue grabbed her wrist. "Does my dad know that you came here today to ask for money?"
"How about I go back with you and ask him?"
Upon hearing this, Wang Lanhua felt somewhat embarrassed and immediately threw away the stick she was holding.
"You silly girl, we're all so busy right now, we don't have time to entertain you."
"I'm going back to my own parents' home, why would I need anyone to entertain me?"
"It's alright, I happen to have some free time. I'll go back and visit my dad, and help you out with some chores too."
As she spoke, she headed towards Hongwan Village, clearly intending to return to her parents' home.
Wang Lanhua panicked; she couldn't let Su Jianguo know about the money request.
He's still holding a grudge about that three hundred yuan.
He kept telling her to take some time to go to the Wang family and ask for some back.
If she found out that Fugui's business had failed and the money was completely gone, then her life would be...
Just thinking about it made her shudder.
Even the sweltering heat couldn't melt the icy chill in her heart.
Not to mention that her parents are now asking her for money for medical treatment again.
If this gets out, ...
"Nianxue, no need, your father is in good health now."
You should go back!
A married daughter should prioritize her husband's family; she shouldn't be constantly running back to her parents' home.
You have to admit, Wang Lanhua has a silver tongue.
He clearly didn't want her to go back and complain, but he made it sound like he was thinking of her best interests.
"You know that once a woman gets married, she has to prioritize her husband's family!"
Wang Lanhua sensed the sarcasm in her words.
He was furious inside, but on the outside he was all smiles.
"You silly girl, I'm just teaching you how to conduct yourself in society."
That's why they say it's tough being a woman!
While it's true that you should prioritize your husband's family, you can't forget your own family!
After all, our parents raised us, so we should fulfill our filial duties.
Is this a subtle way of addressing her?
Let her fulfill her filial duties to her parents' family!
Unfortunately, Su Nianxue was not moved at all.
She believed she had done enough for the Su family.
From now on, whatever happens to the Su family will have nothing to do with her.
"Then go and fulfill your filial duties, why are you looking for me?"
I have no connection with your Wang family. You're not expecting me to give them money, are you?
Wang Lanhua meant that this was exactly what she meant.
But thinking of that brat who always threatened her with Su Jianguo, she had no choice but to swallow the words that were about to come out.
He continued to plead, "Nianxue, please help me."
I really had no other choice.
My parents have been sick for several days now. If we don't take them to the hospital soon, what will become of them?
Su Nianxue's eyes darted around. "I remember you guys shouldn't be short of money!"
Su Jiaojiao is engaged, and the man even gave her a dowry of 300 yuan!
You guys won't have spent it all so quickly, will you?
"If you're really in a hurry, use this money for emergencies!" Okay, she admitted that she just wanted to see Wang Lanhua get beaten up.
Upon hearing this, Wang Lanhua looked somewhat embarrassed.
"Your dad took half of that money and used it to pay for your two younger brothers' tuition."
The rest will be kept as a return gift for Jiaojiao. So…”
Su Nianxue understood her unspoken meaning, so she didn't get a single penny of the money.
I see!
However, Su Jianguo treated his daughter Su Jiaojiao quite well.
He even left half of the betrothal gifts for her as a return gift.
Unlike her, if it weren't for Gu Yanbai's name, he would have forced her to hand over all her dowry money.
The more she thought about it, the colder her eyes became. "Go back, I can't help you!"
If you ask me, just tell my dad directly. Tuition fees don't need to be 150 yuan. Just ask him to give you some.
After she finished speaking, she turned and walked towards home. She was so tired that she didn't want to argue with her anymore.
"Su Nianxue, you ungrateful wretch."
Even if I'm terrible in a thousand ways, I still raised you, and this is how you repay me?
You heartless wretch, aren't you afraid of being struck by lightning?
Behind me came Wang Lanhua's furious cursing.
Su Nianxue paused for a moment, but didn't turn back, continuing to stride away.
You can't reason with this kind of person.
She only remembers her own contributions and can't see the good in others.
Not to mention that she didn't contribute anything at all.
Seeing that she had left without looking back, Wang Lanhua stomped her feet twice on the ground and then carried her basket home.
She kept thinking about this the whole way.
If she can't get the money, how will she ever be able to go back to her parents' home?
We mustn't let our sisters bully us to death!
Su Nianxue's words really opened up new ideas for her.
How about we borrow some from Jiaojiao?
Her grandparents were sick, so it was no big deal for her, as their granddaughter, to be filial.
So, on a sunny afternoon, Su Jiaojiao's shrill scream echoed from a side room in the Su family home.
"Where's my money? Where's my money? Where did my money go?"
Wang Lanhua quickly ran over and covered her mouth, "Don't shout, Jiaojiao, don't shout."
If we alert your dad, we'll both be in deep trouble.
Seeing this, Su Jiaojiao understood immediately. She glared at her angrily, "You took all my money, didn't you?"
Wang Lanhua said with a hint of embarrassment, "It's not taking, it's borrowing. You can lend this money to Mom for an emergency."
I'll pay you back once I've saved up enough."
