Chapter 84 I, the eldest sister-in-law, am still here

When the Su family heard the news and rushed over, Wei Feng and his accomplices had already left.

When Su Rouer's sister-in-law Qian saw Su Chengzong lying on the bed crying, she shouted "You bastard" and wanted to rush up and beat him.

Qian cried and begged, "We can't live like this anymore! One hundred taels, even if we sell our whole family, we can't pay it back! This damn gambling dog wants our whole family to die!"

Su Chengzong closed his eyes and pretended to be dead.

Su's mother looked unhappy. She complained in a low voice, "...Okay, stop talking. Chengzong has been beaten like this!"

Mother Su turned her eyes to Su Rou'er, who was standing beside her, and sighed. She asked, "...I heard that the one who beat him up was your mother-in-law's nephew? Has the money for the medical treatment been paid?"

Su Rouer was doubting her own ears: "Mom, have you ever heard of a casino thug beating someone up and leaving money for medical expenses?"

Su's mother cried, "Rou'er, what should we do? Your mother-in-law's nephew beat someone up, you can't deny it... Where is the money left in the house? This one hundred taels is for our whole family to die!"

Su Rouer felt heartbroken and was speechless.

Qian thought of something and said with a sneer, "They say a married daughter is like spilled water. She married into a good family, so why would she care about her parents' life or death?"

Qian covered her face and continued to cry, "How could I be so blind to marry a gambler!"

Su's mother didn't know how to persuade him.

Amid the commotion, Li Chunhua, who was standing nearby, suddenly remembered the advice given by the old Taoist priest from the nameless Taoist temple, telling them to "be careful on the way back."

She took a breath of cool air.

Isn't this what happened on the way back?

It’s so accurate! It’s so accurate!

The quarrel lasted until the afternoon. Su Rouer gritted her teeth and took out a small piece of silver from her pocket: "This is all I have. Pay the medicine first..."

Qian snatched the small piece of silver.

"It's just this little, not even enough for a penny, what can it be used for?!" Qian's voice was sharp and full of disgust.

Su Rouer's voice was slightly hoarse, with anger burning in her eyes: "If you don't want it, give it back to me!"

This is the money Yu Sanbao earned last time he came back from business.

Since the capital was provided by the public, the profits naturally had to be turned over to the public. This money was given to Yu Sanbao privately by Mrs. Wei because she felt sorry for him because he was traveling around and had poor food and sleep.

But Yu Sanbao was also worried that Su Rouer didn't have any money on hand on a daily basis and wouldn't be able to buy anything with it, so he gave half of his allowance to Su Rouer.

Su Rouer brought the money this time with two intentions: one was to burn incense for Ju Ge'er at the Taoist temple, and the other was to buy some cotton thread and cotton cloth in the county to make a few pairs of shoes for her family.

Who could have imagined that something like this would happen!

When Su Rouer took out the money, her heart was trembling. It turned out that Qian was still rejecting it!

Su's mother hurried out to smooth things over: "Rou'er, your sister-in-law is also anxious... This money is indeed not enough, can you take some more?"

Su Rouer was extremely disappointed with her mother: "Mom, this is all the money I have. I gave it all to my sister-in-law. I can't buy cotton thread and cotton cloth to make shoes..."

Su's mother didn't take Su Rouer's last words to heart at all. All she could hear was Su Rouer's words "This is all the money I have".

She sighed: "Okay, then let your sister-in-law take it first..."

Li Chunhua couldn't bear it anymore.

She was a straightforward person who always spoke her mind, so she frowned and said to Su's mother, "Auntie, I shouldn't say this, but your family is a bit too much!... The third daughter-in-law is the daughter-in-law of our Yu family. Regardless of whether she has money or not, why are you asking her for money so confidently?!"

Li Chunhua was incredulous. "I am still the eldest sister-in-law, and you act like this in front of me. Don't you worry that your daughter will not be able to hold her head up in the Yu family in the future?"

Su Rouer felt a sore nose and wanted to cry.

Over the years, her family has never cared about her face. Even her eldest sister-in-law, who has the most straightforward personality, has noticed it, not to mention other people in the family!

Su's mother still had some sense of shame. Her face turned red and she said hesitantly, "This is not, this is not my son..."

"Your son is your son, not my third brother's wife's son!" Li Chunhua became more and more confused and questioned her soul, "He has hands and feet, and is a strong adult. Why does he have to be raised by my sister who married into the Yu family?"

When he said this, other doctors and patients in the clinic looked at him sideways.

Su's mother was so embarrassed that she was speechless.

Li Chunhua looked at the sky and pulled Su Rouer's arm. "Old Third, it's getting late now. We have to take the two children back to the village. Otherwise, do you want mother to cook, or do you want the pregnant second sister-in-law to cook?"

Su Rouer nodded in a daze, and was pulled away by Li Chunhua by the arm.

Li Chunhua shouted, "Ju Ge'er, take good care of Xingxing, we are going back!"

The two younger ones followed Li Chunhua and Su Rouer out of the clinic together.

Li Chunhua walked very quickly, followed by Su Rouer, and the two younger ones almost jogged behind her.

After walking a long way away from the clinic, Li Chunhua finally stopped, patted her chest, and said frankly, "I'm really afraid that your family will come and get involved again."

Su Rouer was ashamed: "Sister-in-law... I made a fool of myself."

"Hey, what are you talking about!" Li Chunhua didn't take it seriously at all. "Think about my adopted brother from my mother's side. Isn't it pretty bad? No, it's solved! ... We are all members of the same family, and we have to help each other out when something goes wrong. We don't laugh at anything."

Ju Ge'er and Xing Xing were also running out of breath.

Ju Ge'er barely caught his breath as he said, "Mom, huh, huh, we're fine now. You, you mustn't be upset and take me back to my grandparents' home."

Apparently, the time he spent at his grandparents' house had almost become a psychological shadow for Ju Ge'er.

Su Rouer's nose felt sore and her voice became hoarse: "Don't worry, mother won't be confused again!"

Li Chunhua nodded with some approval.

By the time Li Chunhua and Su Rouer brought Ju Ge'er Xingxing back to Nantuo Village, it was already quite late.

Mrs. Wei was a little worried. Even when she was cooking in the kitchen, she would come out from time to time to check on them to see if they had returned.

Only after the two adults and two children arrived home safely did Mrs. Wei feel relieved.

When Li Chunhua saw Mrs. Wei steaming buns, she hurried to wash her hands and said, "Mom, I'll go cook, you just take a rest."

Mother Wei waved her hands and said impatiently, "Come on, you have come a long way, why are you back at this hour? Didn't your prayers at the Taoist temple go smoothly?"
