Chapter 3 Does Your Dad Know?



"Also, does your father know that you embezzled the subsidy money he gave to our family?"

The original owner didn't know about this.

Su Li knew about it because it was mentioned in the original book when she was reading it.

Zhang's mother and daughter looked at her as if they had seen a ghost.

How did she know that they had come here without telling her husband? And how did she know that her husband asked her to give them money every month to support them?

"It's a good opportunity to let my father-in-law know what you've been doing without telling him all these years!"

"You are not allowed to...you are not allowed to say it!" Zhang struggled to get up, "You are not allowed to say it!"

Given the feelings my husband has for Pei Ji, if he knew that the money he used to support him over the years had been embezzled by her, he would definitely divorce her!

Even if he didn't divorce her, she would never be able to manage the household finances in the future.

"Then return all the money you've embezzled over the years!"

"What did you say? That money...that money is long gone...how can I pay you back?"

Over the years, she has used more than half of this money just to support her parents' family. Asking her to give it back is like asking for her life.

"Three days! If I don't see the silver in three days, I will tell the eunuch what you did. Of course, if you want to cheat and deny it, I have my own way to make the eunuch believe it..."

Su Li acted with great momentum.

Of course, this was just to bluff her.

The heroine of the original novel once said that Zhang is a person who bullies the weak and fears the strong. As long as you are stronger than her, she will be afraid of you. On the contrary, the more you are afraid of her, the more she will bully you.

Now, her words have indeed been verified.

Zhang gritted her teeth and glared at her unwillingly.

"You bitch..." When had Pei Xiuli ever seen her mother being bullied and threatened like this, especially by this useless person who had always been bullied by them?

Just as she was about to curse, she met Su Li's half-smile and couldn't continue.

It's so weird. He is clearly smiling, but that expression is creepy no matter how you look at it.

She was afraid...

Is she possessed by some evil spirit? Otherwise, how could she have changed so drastically?

Is it really possible for a person to change so much?

She remembered that she had heard an old man in the village say that when a person encounters an evil spirit, his or her personality will change drastically, but after the evil spirit is eliminated, the person will return to his or her previous state.

Thinking of this, she hurriedly pulled her mother and whispered in her ear.

Su Li didn't care what they said, even though they looked at her from time to time.

Of course she knew that the original owner's weak and vulnerable nature was too deeply rooted in their hearts and could not be changed in a short time.

But she wasn't anxious. If she didn't believe it the first time, what about the second time? And the third time?

Gradually, she was always able to change their inherent views of the original owner, so that they no longer dared to cause trouble for her.

No one is static, and this reasoning makes sense no matter where you apply it.

After Zhang's mother and daughter left, Pei Zhao and his sister pushed the door open and came out.

Mother said there was heavy dew at night and asked them to stay indoors, so they opened a hole in the window and looked out.

My mother was still as majestic as she was in the evening, not afraid of my grandmother at all. My grandmother was even scared by her and begged for mercy.

Happy! Excited!

The brother and sister rushed out, hugged Su Li tightly, and said with admiration: "Mom, you didn't lie to us, you are so amazing!"

They praised her for fighting, and her emotional value was maximized, and Su Li was in a very good mood.

After the three of them entered the house, Su Li spoke only after their excitement had subsided.

"Do you know why mother beat them?"

Pei Chuer answered quickly: "I know! Because they beat me, my brother, and mother, and mother helped us fight back!"

She heard it clearly today. When her mother beat her third aunt, it was because her third aunt had beaten us before and pushed her mother. Her mother said she was fighting back for us.

Pei Zhao also nodded.

Yo?

Su Li was a little surprised. Is this little brat quite smart?

She was worried that they would learn something wrong, and was thinking about how to correct them, but they figured it out on their own?

"So, we can't attack others without reason, unless they do something particularly excessive."

"Mom, we know. Dad also told us this..." Pei Zhao said softly.

"Yeah!" Pei Chuer also agreed readily.

“Puff!”

Su Li smiled happily.

Very good!

The two children have such a good foundation, and Pei Ji will help with their upbringing when he comes back from vacation. She doesn't have to worry about the education of the two children in the future!

"Not bad, not bad, you are all good children of your mother! Let's go to bed..."

The next day, Su Li woke up at dawn.

It’s not that she wants to get up so early, it’s that the original owner’s biological clock is about to wake up.

The original owner would get up before dawn every day, go to the backyard to water and weed the vegetable patch, and when it was almost done, make breakfast for the two children.

After breakfast was ready, Pei Xiuli and Pei Xiuluo came with clothes for almost everyone in the family. They washed the clothes and started cooking at noon.

Sometimes there are so many clothes that it takes half a day just to wash them.

After lunch, the original owner's mother-in-law would call her over every now and then to give her a massage, massage her legs, or chop firewood for her family and feed the chickens, ducks and geese.

Or her mother-in-law or sister-in-law would come to her house to "discipline the children" for her and establish the authority of her mother-in-law or aunt.

In the evening, after dinner, when the children fell asleep, the original owner would start embroidering until late at night, and then take the embroidery to the town to sell after a while.

Tsk tsk!

Is this the life people live?

It’s okay to be a little hard-working, but the problem is that it’s frustrating!

The original owner actually spent five years like this without any regrets, and for the sake of harmony between the male protagonist and his family, she never told her husband about it once.

To submit to humiliation and accept adversity...

Su Li picked up a half-finished embroidery and took a look at it, confirming that it was not something she could embroider, even with the original owner's memories.

In modern times, she had also bought embroidery items. Even though the embroidered cloths had been painted and the needle holes were well-marked, she couldn't embroider them well, let alone embroidery with such dense and complex stitches. She didn't have the patience for that.

Let’s think of other ways to make money.

She lay back in bed and took a nap, then got up to make breakfast when she was almost done.

I made vegetable porridge again. The two children got up as soon as breakfast was ready.

After helping them wash up, the three of them started to drink porridge.

The August morning was a bit chilly, but fortunately the weather was clear and the sun rose high in the sky early.

It's good weather for traveling.

Su Li decided to take her two children to town to buy things.

"Really? Mom, can we go to town with you?"

"Well, of course it's true."

"That's great, that's great!"

The two little guys cheered.

In the past, the original owner had never taken them to town. Firstly, they were young and she was afraid they would get lost. Secondly, she wanted to sell embroidery and buy things, and it was not very convenient to take two children with her.

Therefore, every time he went to town, he would entrust his brother and sister to the care of the neighbor next door.

"Alright, alright, let's pack up and get ready to go!"

In fact, there was nothing much to pack. The mother and her two children had very few clothes, which were so old that they had turned white, but they were clean and tidy.

Su Li packed the clothes for the brother and sister and took them out.
