Chapter 58 The Thought of Escape
Liang Huanxue saw all his actions.
But she didn't stop him.
She was hoping Fu Jixiang would do this, because after Fu Shushu disappeared, the Fu family would have another debt to owe to the Zhang family.
Liang Huanxue gently knocked on the window of Fu Shushu's room, originally wanting to tell her how to act with her on the wedding day.
As soon as I climbed in, I heard footsteps.
She scurried under the bed.
Fu Shushu's bed is narrow and small, and the space under the bed is even more cramped.
Fortunately, she was still a child, otherwise there would be no way to get in.
"Mom, have you found the jewelry?" When Fu Shushu saw that it was Shen He who came in, she hurriedly asked about the jewelry.
It also distracted her attention and prevented her from thinking about what had just happened in the room.
"Jewelry...your brother pawned all the jewelry." Shen He didn't expect that after giving all the money to her son, he was still so unsatisfied.
He actually stole the jewelry and pawned it!
"Ah? Then...what should I do?" Fu Shushu looked terrified, as if she was worried that she wouldn't be able to explain to the Zhang family.
But in fact, she already knew about this.
"What should I do? If I can't pay it back, will he beat me to death? Mom, let's go and redeem the things!"
Fu Shushu didn't know what the meaning of her words was.
She knew her mother would never do that.
"You've already pawned it, what's the point of redeeming it? Besides, when you go to the Zhang family, if you happen to win the favor of Mr. Zhang, you'll be living the life of a young lady from now on. Why would you care about this little bit of money? Don't be afraid, nothing will happen." Shen He said perfunctorily.
In fact, she had this idea earlier than Fu Jixiang.
After all, after Fu Shushu took the jewelry to Zhang's house, it was difficult to get it back from her.
It is safest to change it into silver and hold it in your hand.
"Mom, if we get discovered..."
"As long as you are careful, you won't be discovered. Is he going to stare at the jewelry on you? When you get to Zhang's house, serve Mr. Zhang well. What kind of jewelry do you want? Okay, okay, it's settled."
Shen He also knew that the jewelry box was very fake and it could be seen at a glance.
However, even if the Zhang family found out, she would insist that she knew nothing.
Put all the blame on Fu Shushu alone.
Fu Shushu had tears in her eyes, and her fingers were about to poke a hole in the corner of her clothes.
She just didn't expect that her mother really didn't care about her life or death at all.
After Shen He walked out, Fu Shushu immediately locked the door and windows before letting Huanxue come out from under the bed.
"Huanxue, you said before that you would help me, is that true?" Fu Shushu no longer has any hope.
We can only place our hopes on Huanxue.
"Of course it's true. Don't worry, I have come up with a great idea. As long as you cooperate, there will be no problem. However... you can't come back here again." Liang Huanxue said.
Rather than going to Zhang's house to suffer, Fu Shushu would rather leave this place.
It doesn't matter where you go.
"I won't come back again, never again." Fu Shushu's eyes were firm.
"Okay then, on the wedding day, you just do as I say." Liang Huanxue told her plan.
After hearing this, Fu Shushu's eyes widened. "Is this really possible? I'm not very good at swimming."
Liang Huanxue, however, looked as if she was in charge, "Don't worry, I'm here, nothing will happen to you."
Fu Shushu nodded.
Huan Xue is willing to help her, what does she have to be afraid of?
"Huanxue, thank you. You helped me. Your grandma won't say anything, right?" Fu Shushu felt very sorry when she thought of how angry Mrs. Liang was that day.
"If my grandma doesn't agree, how could I dare? My grandma also knows that you didn't do anything wrong. You can only blame yourself for being Shen He's daughter." Liang Huanxue said the last sentence by imitating the expression and tone of old lady Liang.
Fu Shushu was amused by her look.
Although she still felt sad when she thought about it, this was her fate and she couldn't do anything about it.
Since we are not destined to be together in this life, we can only wait for the next life.
"I have to go first. Remember what I told you. Don't make any mistakes when the time comes." Liang Huanxue said, and returned the same way.
Fu Shushu opened the door and walked out, just in time to see Shen He and Fu Jixiang counting money.
Seeing her coming out, Fu Jixiang hurriedly held the silver in front of him, as if he was afraid that Fu Shushu would snatch the silver away.
"It originally belonged to me, so it's only natural that you take it." Fu Shushu sneered and walked out the door.
Shen He stood up and blocked her way. "Where are you going? You're getting married in a few days. Don't even think about running away!"
"Mom, I just want to go dig some medicinal herbs. Isn't Dad still not well?" Fu Shushu knew she would be stopped.
Before Liang Huanxue came to find her, she did have the idea of running away.
But she was afraid that she would be caught before she even left the village.
Liang Huanxue's method is still more reliable.
"No, go back to your room. Don't think I really don't know what you are thinking." Shen He dragged her back to the room, locked her door from the outside, and asked Fu Jixiang to find wooden boards to nail all the windows shut.
"Mom, we can't let her run away, otherwise the Zhang family will definitely come to trouble us." Fu Jixiang didn't want to lose the money he had worked so hard to get.
"Don't worry, I'm watching him all the time, he can't run away." Shen He said, and went to check again. After making sure that the person could not escape, he sat down again.
She wanted to put all the silver away, but Fu Jixiang refused, saying that he still owed a lot of silver and had to pay it back, otherwise people would come to his house to collect the debt.
"Hasn't that fifty taels already been used by you to pay off your debts? Haven't you paid it off yet?" Shen He never thought that fifty taels of silver could not fill his hole.
"If I have paid it back, why would I touch this jewelry? Mom, you know I just wanted to make some money in the casino. They teamed up to cheat me, so I lost so badly. Next time I will be more careful. Give me this money first!"
Shen He only took twenty taels from him, and he took the rest.
Fu Shushu was listening to the noise outside in the room, laughing happily.
The more money Fu Jixiang spent, the happier she was.
By then, even if they sell everything they have, they still won’t be able to fill the hole.
Liang Huanxue was picking wild vegetables on the way home. The chicks she bought were growing very fast. According to the current trend, they would be able to lay eggs in less than three months.
As soon as you enter the courtyard, the aroma of rice cakes hits you.
Liang Huanxue went to the kitchen and found that her grandmother was teaching her eldest aunt and second aunt how to make rice cakes.
