Chapter 85 Let him die!



Chapter 85 Let him die!

Although Li Chunhua is outspoken, she doesn't say everything she wants.

She glanced at Su Rouer and saw that she was biting her lower lip and didn't look like she was against it. Li Chunhua then took some water from the basin to wash her hands and said to Mrs. Wei, "Mother, this is a long story..."

Li Chunhua remembered something and became excited again, "Mom, that Taoist temple is really magical. The old Taoist priest told us to be careful on the way back... and sure enough, we ran into trouble on the way back!"

Mrs. Wei's heart skipped a beat when she heard this: "What's the matter?"

Is there really something wrong?!

She subconsciously looked at Xing Xing and Ju Ge'er.

The two little guys, Xingxing and Juge'er, were very tired. They were sitting on a small stool, chewing fruits, and they didn't look like they were doing anything.

Mrs. Wei breathed a sigh of relief, and then she heard her eldest daughter-in-law say, "...Mom, we saw cousin Afeng!"

Mrs. Wei was stunned for a moment: "Ah Feng?"

But she didn't look very surprised and nodded: "A Feng came to see me at home before and said that he was cheating on me..."

Mrs. Wei noticed that Su Rouer looked a little uncomfortable.

Li Chunhua hesitated for a moment, then said: "Mom, cousin Afeng won't take the blame now. He..."

Seeing Li Chunhua's hesitation, Mrs. Wei became impatient: "If you have something to say, just say it. It's not too dry and crisp, it's just keeping people on suspense."

Li Chunhua coughed and said, "No, mother, it's mainly because my cousin Afeng... he seems to be working as a thug for the casino now."

"What? A casino thug?" Mrs. Wei frowned immediately. "You must have seen it wrong. Ah Feng is not that kind of person."

"I'm not mistaken." Li Chunhua coughed again, "Mom, I was talking to my cousin Afeng. How could I have made a mistake... Besides, it was Xingxing who recognized him first. Isn't that right, Xingxing?"

Xing Xing was chewing fruit when she heard her aunt call her name. She raised her head, still chewing fruit, and nodded: "Yes, it's Uncle Wei!"

In response to Li Chunhua's question.

Mrs. Wei was struck by lightning.

Obviously, this incident caused a certain impact on Mrs. Wei.

She opened her mouth slightly and was unable to speak for a long time.

Li Chunhua did not dare to urge her, so she opened the lid of the steamer on the stove, took a look at the condition of the steamed buns in the steamer, and added some fire to the stove to make it burn more vigorously.

Su Rouer lowered her head and said nothing.

After a while, Mrs. Wei finally came to her senses, but she was still in disbelief. She murmured, "No way...how come A-Feng is working as a thug in a casino?"

She was a little unwilling to give up and asked Li Chunhua: "...Is there some misunderstanding?"

"There is really no misunderstanding." Li Chunhua hesitated and couldn't help but look at Su Rouer.

This was not the first time Li Chunhua looked at Su Rouer.

Mrs. Wei also looked at Su Rouer with suspicion.

Su Rouer lowered her head and said nothing.

But in the dusk, one could see that the third daughter-in-law's face was flushed.

...What are these two daughters-in-law doing?

Li Chunhua lowered her voice slightly: "...Mom, we met cousin Afeng in the alley. At that time, cousin Afeng was collecting debts according to the rules of the casino..."

Mrs. Wei was old and had experienced a lot. She had also seen people from the county casino chasing people into the village with machetes in hand, demanding debts.

Mrs. Wei’s face turned pale!

She never imagined that her nephew from her mother's side would actually do such a business!

Li Chunhua glanced at Su Rouer again.

Mrs. Wei was very annoyed at the moment. She was confused when she saw her eldest daughter-in-law looking at her third daughter-in-law and then back again. She suppressed her annoyance and shouted, "What are you two doing? If you have something to say, why don't you just say it directly?! Are you planning to discuss it and hide it from an old woman like me?!"

Li Chunhua was a little embarrassed and said: "...Mom, it's not. The main thing is..."

She didn't know how to tell Mrs. Wei.

The gambler that Wei Feng was asking for debts from was Su Rouer’s elder brother from her mother’s family!

Su Rouer, on the other hand, had a pale face and smiled bitterly: "Mother, it's not that my sister-in-law wants to hide it from you, it's that my sister-in-law doesn't know how to tell you..."

Su Rouer was about to cry, but she held back her tears, "...the man that cousin Afeng beat up was my eldest brother Su Chengzong."

Mrs. Wei had already heard from Su Rouer about Su Chengzong's gambling.

After hearing this, although Mrs. Wei said she was not surprised, she felt somewhat wronged because the man who came to collect the debt was her nephew from her mother's family.

Su Rouer covered her face with her hands, unable to bear it any longer, and cried, "Mom, my elder brother, my elder brother lost one hundred taels of silver. What should I do..."

Even Mrs. Wei, who had saved a lot of money at home, took a deep breath when she heard this number.

One hundred taels of silver? !

It is no exaggeration to say that if Xingxing had not brought them the good fortune, it would be hard to say whether the Yu family could have saved up one hundred taels of silver in their lifetime!

How dare Su Chengzong do this?

How dare you lose a hundred taels of silver? !

Mrs. Wei was trembling in her heart and was speechless.

Su Rouer just cried.

Mrs. Wei was shocked by the news one after another and her head was buzzing.

After a while, she took a deep breath.

"Mr. San, your eldest brother owes so much money. Does your mother's family have any rules?" asked Mrs. Wei.

Su Rouer cried and shook her head.

There is no such rule. It's just forcing her to get money from her husband's family.

Li Chunhua muttered to the side: "I don't think my third sister-in-law's family has the money to pay back... Even her family asked my third sister-in-law for the medical expenses when her eldest brother was beaten..."

She remembered what Wei Feng had told her before he left. She hesitated for a moment, but still did not tell Mrs. Wei in front of Su Rouer.

Su Rouer cried even harder.

Mrs. Wei was extremely irritable.

At first, his family gave Yu Sanbao some silver. Later, when they saw that Yu Sanbao could really make money as a businessman, they gave him some more money. The total amount was thirty taels of silver, which was given to Yu Sanbao as business capital.

The four brothers in the family went to school, and they spent a lot of money on tuition, paper, ink, pens, inkstones, books, etc.

That’s all the money we have at home right now!

Compared with the one hundred taels owed by Su Chengzong, that was just a drop in the bucket!

What's more, for Mrs. Wei, the only thing she could do is let a gambler like Su Chengzong die!

Gambling with dogs is mostly a bottomless abyss. No matter how much money you put in, it will all be in vain!

"Forget it, let's take it one step at a time!" Although Mrs. Wei didn't ask for money, her meaning was already very clear.

Although Su Rouer understood what her mother-in-law meant and was mentally prepared, she still felt a little hopeless.

How could her family afford one hundred taels of silver?

She couldn't just watch her elder brother die!
