Chapter 84 On the Eve of Returning to Shanghai



"How much is left?" Sheng Yanjun asked in a cold voice.

"There's still... there's still more than 30 left." Huiping said the amount of money fearfully.

After hearing this, Sheng Yanjun gnashed his teeth and wanted to beat this woman up. It had only been a few days and she had dared to give out more than 200 yuan of the family's money. If he hadn't wanted to buy something today, I'm afraid the two of them would have starved to death in a few days.

Sheng Yanjun took a deep breath and said to Huiping, "Give me the remaining money, and ask me for money when you buy something in the future."

"How can that be? Women manage the money in every household. If you take all the money now, how can I live my life if others find out?" When Hui Ping heard what Sheng Yanjun said, she immediately felt that her power was taken away, and her voice became much louder.

"Let you take care of it? If you continue to take care of it, we will starve to death without knowing it!"

"How could you starve to death? Your parents live next door."

"What's the matter? You still want to live off your parents' money even though the family has split up? Don't talk nonsense to me, just bring the money over here." Sheng Yanjun pushed Hui Ping and told her to get the money quickly.

Hui Ping ignored him and reluctantly gave the remaining money to Sheng Yanjun.

After receiving the money, Sheng Yanjun packed it up. Thinking about the lack of food and meat at home, and the fact that the brigade would not distribute food until the end of the year, he could not help but feel a little relieved about his family's future life. Thinking about the gossip he had heard in the village about his brother and Nanqiao, he felt for the first time that his behavior of supporting the separation of the family was wrong.

With such a daughter-in-law, he is still worried that Nanqiao will squander all the family fortune. At present, it seems that his daughter-in-law is the one who really squanders the family fortune...

When Taohua arrived at Sheng Yanjun's house, she saw the couple confronting each other. Taohua didn't know whether to go in or out. After hesitating for a while, she called out "Brother" in a low voice.

"Big Brother"

Sheng Yanchuan turned his head to look at the door when he heard it. Seeing that the person coming was Taohua, he forced a smile and asked, "Taohua, why are you here so late?"

"Mom asked me to ask you, it's Yaya's birthday tomorrow, and I want to make something delicious at home. Sister Nanqiao is coming too, so I want to ask if you guys want to come over."

Sheng Yanjun thought for a moment and said to Yaya, "Okay, go back and tell mom that I'll be there tomorrow."

"Okay, big brother, then you guys go to bed early, I'll go home." Taohua said and turned to walk home

Only Sheng Yanjun and Hui Ping were left in the yard. Sheng Yanjun didn't want to meet Hui Ping's eyes. He stared at her for a long time, then left a word and went back to the house.

"Forget about it, it's Yaya's birthday tomorrow. The day after tomorrow you go back to your mother's house and get the money back. It's your brother's wedding, and his mother should pay for the bride price. I'm not his father. And if you don't want to come back, then don't come back. Just live with your good mother and good brother."

Hui Ping was extremely panicked after hearing what Sheng Yanjun said. This was the first time that Sheng Yanjun had said such harsh words to her in all these years of marriage. She didn't have a son now, and if Sheng Yanjun really wanted to divorce her...

Hui Ping didn't dare to think about it. She wanted to say something to Sheng Yanjun, but as soon as she moved her feet, she thought of his expression just now and didn't dare to argue for herself anymore.

But when she thought about going home and asking her mother to return the money...is this simply impossible?...Huiping felt complicated and resentful. Why did everyone make things difficult for her?

Her mother-in-law is partial to her, her own mother is partial to her, and her husband is still forcing her. Huiping blames everyone but doesn't think about her own mistakes.

The next day, after work, Sheng Yanjun still took a pound of meat to Aunt Xiumei's house. No matter what, Aunt Xiumei really took care of Yaya during this period, and he still had to do what he should do.

But unlike Sheng Yanjun, Hui Ping, who followed behind Sheng Yanjun, looked at the pound of meat with red eyes, and couldn't stop complaining in her heart, isn't it just that she came to Nanqiao, what's the big deal, you can buy meat for your family, why can't I send money to my family

Huiping is now almost paranoid, but when she thinks about having to go home to ask for money tomorrow, she becomes listless like a deflated ball.

In this era where boys are favored over girls, Aunt Xiumei and her husband are like special beings. They try their best to give equal treatment to both boys and girls, just like this birthday...

In an age when every household is not able to get enough food, Aunt Xiumei still celebrates the birthday of her little granddaughter who is only a few years old.

Dinner was ready, and Aunt Xiumei asked Sheng Yanchuan to come to the table to eat. Aunt Xiumei was still indifferent to the Sheng couple. They ate and drank as usual, and there was no unnecessary chat or concern.

Aunt Xiumei was not unconcerned. When she saw the eldest son coming in with a piece of pork, she felt a little sorry for him.

During this time, she also heard a lot of gossip in the village. An aunt went to his house to chat with Huiping out of boredom. It happened to be when they were cooking. She said that the food was all watery and watery, and even the poor families in the village were not as good as them.

Then think about it, Huiping's parents just came a few days ago, and now they are living like this, who knows, the money from the division of the family may have been taken away...

Now the eldest son can still bring meat...

Why....

Thinking of this, Aunt Xiumei sighed silently. She had done all the persuasion and advice she should have given. The rest was up to fate.

Retracting her thoughts, Aunt Xiumei asked Nanqiao to eat more

"Nan girl, eat more. I see you've lost weight recently." He picked up a chicken leg and put it into Nanqiao's bowl.

"Auntie, I'm fine on my own. I shouldn't be thin," Nanqiao responded and pinched her arm subconsciously, thinking to herself, could it be that I've been eating too well recently?

Looking at the chicken drumstick in the bowl, Nanqiao was a little worried. Whether it was before she transmigrated into the book or the original owner, she had always been good at eating and drinking since she was a child. Before she transmigrated into the book, she was even more meticulous in her diet. Because she didn't eat much, she ate everything carefully and tasted good. Such a big chicken drumstick... Nanqiao felt a little powerless to accept it... After thinking about it, she still confronted Sheng Yanchuan next to her, and made eye contact for a long time, asking him to help her finish the chicken drumstick...
