Zhang Xiaoqin opened her bag and showed the money inside to everyone.
You can be angry or hate someone, but how many people can resist the temptation of money?
When Jiang's mother and Jiang Fu's wife saw so much money, their eyes turned green.
"Some things cannot be bought with money. You should keep this money that came from unknown sources and enjoy it slowly. We don't want it."
Her eldest son still has some backbone and can stick to his original intention in the face of such great temptation.
Mother Jiang snatched the bag from Zhang Xiaoqin's hand and said, "Big Boy, why don't you want it? This is what she owes you two brothers, and she owes it to our Jiang family. It would be a waste if she didn't want it."
She looked at the brand new hundred-dollar bill in her bag and her heart was filled with joy.
"Grandma, we can't be so spineless. Besides, most of this money she earned by selling herself... I feel disgusted using it."
The eldest son was very determined and forcibly snatched the bag back from Mother Jiang.
He grabbed Zhang Xiaoqin and pulled her out of the door, throwing the bag in his hand out. "I hope you keep your word and never disturb our lives again." After saying that, he slammed the door shut.
Some of the money slipped out of her bag and fell to the ground. She squatted down and picked up the money one by one and put it back into her bag, tears dripping like pearls from a broken string onto the brand new money.
She never dreamed that her two sons would hate her so much.
Now I am trash and everyone despises me.
Although he had both a son and a daughter, he had no choice but to wait for death alone, without even two people to see him off.
She even wondered if she would be left exposed in the wilderness if she died, with no one to collect her body.
Now, the only relative who can still accept her is probably her mother who is over fifty years old.
But after what happened today, she was too ashamed to disturb her mother's life again and let her suffer the pain of seeing her child die before her.
She walked downstairs with her bag in her arms, looking distraught, and took a bus back to the village with Niu Wa. When they got back to the village, it was already dark.
Standing at the village entrance, the familiar fragrance of earth greeted her. She stood there, unable to move.
This is the hometown where she was born and raised, but where is her home?
She didn't have the face to go back to the Fu family; she heard that their old house had collapsed due to disrepair. She didn't know where to go.
The world is so big, but there is not even an inch of space for her.
"What are you standing there for? Why don't you leave? I've been busy all day and I'm starving. Hurry up! We haven't had time to stew the chicken yet! I left in a hurry during the day, don't let the cat take it away."
"You mean for me to go to your house?"
"What else? Do you want to go back to the Fu family? In the past few years since you left, the Fu family's elders have hated you. Not only did you take away their money, but you also made their son disappear without a trace. If you want to be scolded, then go ahead."
Yes! We agreed to go find Fu Jun, but I went out to look for a man for myself, and I had already forgotten about finding Fu Jun.
After all these years, Fu Jun still hasn't returned, and I'm afraid he's in danger. The Fu family's fate is her doing, and she feels sorry for the family.
How come it was only when she was dying that she realized how many people she had wronged and how much debt she owed that she could not repay.
She didn't say a word, followed Niu Wa, and returned to Niu Wa's home with him.
Niu Wa was busy in the kitchen, stewing the chicken that was killed at noon.
Zhang Xiaoqin sat there in a daze, holding the money that she had given up everything to get.
At this moment, she was overwhelmed with thoughts. She had no chance of spending all this money. She had considered leaving it to the Fu family elders as compensation, but her eldest son's words, "I feel sick just using them," kept ringing in her ears, making her feel that her money was really dirty, and she backed off.
…
Not long after, Niu Wa came in with two bowls of steaming chicken soup and placed them on the table.
"Xiaoqin, come quickly and eat while it's hot. It will warm you up a little."
Zhang Xiaoqin raised her head and looked at the grinning Niu Wa.
This was something she never dreamed of. She didn't expect that the person who would stay with her in the end, give her a hot meal, and a shelter from the wind and rain would be the Niu Wa, the person she once despised.
If I hadn't been fickle and hadn't been so fickle, and had lived a good life with Niu Wa knowing that I had ruined his child, would the ending have been different today?
