"Nianxue, please help us!"
We still owe the carpenter money, and I'm afraid he'll be coming to collect it soon!
"What will we use to pay you back then?" Su Jianguo seemed not to hear her words and stubbornly complained to her.
Su Nianxue gave a cold laugh, "Whoever owes it, just find them to pay it back."
Since it's for Su Jiaojiao's dowry, then go ask the Wang family for the money!
What's the point of contacting me? I have a lot of things to deal with at home!
Wang Lanhua raised her short, stubby finger and pointed it at her fiercely, "Why should the Wang family pay for it?"
When you got married, you took all the good things from the family with you, which is why Jiaojiao didn't even have money for a dowry.
Su Nianxue ignored her and looked directly at Su Jianguo, "Dad, do you think so too?"
Su Jianguo remained silent, clearly indicating that the couple were on the same side this time.
"All right!
Now that we've come this far, let's settle the score properly today.
At the time, the Gu family gave a bride price of 500 yuan, and I kept 200 yuan as a return gift.
I used the other 300 yuan to save my dad.
The wood used for my dowry was all prepared by my grandfather when he was still alive.
You only spent a few wages at most.
I just want to ask, isn't 300 yuan enough for the carpenter's wages?
"Can someone explain to me what you mean by 'I took all my things from the house'?"
The two looked at each other, clearly struggling to cope with her sharp questioning.
Su Jianguo looked a little embarrassed. "I didn't mean that. Your mother said those words."
I know you've always been a good kid, so please help us!
We're really out of options. We've sold all our grain, and I'm afraid we won't even have enough to eat next year.
Su Jianguo took a deep drag in frustration, and the cigarette between his fingers burned down to the end.
He threw the cigarette butt in his hand onto the ground.
Then he twisted the cigarette butt with his foot until it was completely extinguished.
When Wang Lanhua saw his appearance, she couldn't help but shudder and subconsciously moved away from him.
"I'll say it again, I have no money!" Su Nianxue felt no sympathy for his plight.
As the old saying goes, there's always a reason why someone is pitiful.
Although all of these things were caused by Wang Lanhua.
But if Su Jianguo hadn't spoiled her all these years, would she have been so bold as to empty the Su family's house?
"Nianxue, you know Dad hasn't asked anyone for help in all these years. This time, Dad is really begging you, please help us!"
A ray of sunlight shone through the crack in the window and fell directly on his head.
The sunlight made his gray hair on top of his head shine, and coupled with his droopy face, he seemed to have aged ten years in an instant.
"Dad, I can't help you!"
You know Gu Yanbai doesn't even have a proper job, so how much money can I possibly save by selling tofu?"
He wanted to be a good son-in-law to his wife's family and a good father to Su Jiaojiao.
Then you should take the blame yourself, but whatever you do, don't drag her into it.
Does she look like a sucker? Otherwise, why would she pay for someone else's mistakes?
"Dad knows all this too."
If Ke Yanbai was able to get a television set, it proves that he has some connections outside.
"It shouldn't be difficult for you to help Dad get some money."
After Su Jianguo finished speaking, he lowered his head, looking very ashamed.
But if you're truly ashamed, why bring it up in the first place?
What he said was really interesting!
Even if they don't have money, they still have to help him borrow money to pay off his debts.
hehe!
Su Nianxue sneered, "Dad, why should I?"
The carpenter's money was owed by Su Jiaojiao, and the family's money and grain were taken away by Wang Lanhua.
Why are you coming to me instead of confronting them? Am I destined to spend my whole life cleaning up their messes?
"How can you talk like that?"
You're the eldest in this family. What eldest child doesn't help their parents and take care of their younger siblings?
Upon hearing this, Wang Lanhua realized that this brat had turned her attention to her again.
This is outrageous!
She jolted awake and kicked the ball back.
At the same time, he couldn't help but glance at Su Jianguo's expression, wondering if he should run away.
Su Nianxue gave a cold laugh and suddenly raised her voice, "Boss? Helper?"
Haven't I helped my family enough over the years?
I've been working in the fields with my grandparents since I was little, helping my dad support our family.
As a girl, I was involved in everything from planting rice seedlings, digging sweet potatoes, harvesting wheat, weeding, and fertilizing.
After finishing the work in the fields, I still have to do laundry, cook, feed the pigs and chickens, and clean the yard when I get home.
My dad had an accident, and I was the one who raised the money for his treatment. How else can I help my family?
"Nianxue, keep your voice down! There are still many guests outside. If they hear this, it will be embarrassing."
Wang Lanhua peeked out through the crack in the door; the guests seemed to have already noticed the commotion inside.
They lost interest in even talking and peered toward the closed door.
"So you know what shame is? Then don't do these dirty things!" Su Nianxue's voice showed no sign of decreasing.
"What are you yelling about? Which child doesn't do that?"
You should know that the kindness of your parents is greater than heaven. We have worked so hard to raise you, and now that you are grown up, you should repay your family.
"Who's like you, arguing with your younger siblings?"
Wang Lanhua was used to it long ago; she had been working like an old ox for years.
They don't feel there's anything wrong with doing these things?
