Chapter 44: With the husband's intervention, the old lady lost fifteen taels of silver. (shuhaige.net)



Although she had managed to scrape together some money, she still had to pay it back to others, and being in debt was a difficult life.

"Sister-in-law, is there any hope that my husband will wake up?" Min Xiaoqian wiped away the tears from the corners of her eyes and asked cautiously.

She didn't want to stay in this house for even a second longer; she desperately wanted her husband to wake up soon!

"Don't worry, Hong Xu's condition has stabilized, and he will wake up soon." Shen Yunsheng smiled and patted Min Xiaoqian's shoulder.

Seeing Shen Yunsheng's confidence, Min Xiaoqian finally breathed a sigh of relief.

"Sister-in-law, thank you for treating my Hongxu despite past grievances." Min Xiaoqian was about to kowtow to thank Shen Yunsheng when Shen Yunsheng stopped her.

"Sister-in-law, please don't stand on ceremony. Go inside and see Hong Xu!"

Qiu sincerely thanked Shen Yunsheng before entering the room with her daughter-in-law.

Xiao Wenjing was still thinking about what had happened earlier. He glanced at Shen Yunsheng with a cold eye and then looked at Shen Yunsheng. “Jingchuan’s family, you are too bold. You actually dared to ask your grandmother for money in front of everyone.”

Her father-in-law kept nagging, and Shen Yunsheng became a little impatient. "Father, don't be so quick to blame me. If I don't ask the old lady for money, she will try to commit suicide again next time. If something really happens, my husband and I will be sinners for all eternity."

"Who do you think you are, a sinner for all time? I am the sinner for all time." Xiao Wenjing glared at Shen Yunsheng with a stern face. Actually, he was mainly angry that his son didn't help him.

"Honey, say less," Luo couldn't help but advise her husband. Although their daughter-in-law's approach was somewhat extreme, it was effective. As elders, they shouldn't interfere unnecessarily.

Xiao Wanqing also disliked her cowardly father. Not only did he not help his own people, but he also deliberately made things difficult for them.

“Dad, I advise you to wake up. The old lady is willing to sacrifice even Second Uncle’s son, let alone us. Please stop criticizing my sister-in-law.”

Seeing his son's gloomy face, Xiao Wenjing angrily went to the main room to see the old lady.

Shen Yunsheng was utterly speechless at his father-in-law. He couldn't stand it if they said just a few words. He had been enslaved by the old, vicious woman for a long time, yet he never resisted.

"My wife, don't be angry. Father's obsession with the old lady is too deep, and he certainly won't be able to change it in a short time."

Xiao Jingchuan gently comforted his wife. He knew his father's ulterior motives; his father dared not say anything to him, so he could only take his anger out on his wife.

"Husband, let's not talk about these unhappy things. Since we have some time today, let's set up a small kitchen."

Shen Yunsheng no longer wanted to share the kitchen with the second branch of the family. They were too lazy. Even though they had separated from the family, they still liked to take advantage of others and didn't even want to chop firewood.

Just as Xiao Jingchuan was about to speak, Xiao Wanqing sighed softly, "Sister-in-law, before we set up the small kitchen, let's go see Hongyu. I heard from the villagers that she's on a hunger strike."

Shen Yunsheng and Xiao Jingchuan exchanged a glance, both feeling somewhat helpless.

There are all sorts of birds in a big forest. If they were Li Hongyu, they wouldn't want to marry the foolish son of the wealthy Huang family.

"Wife, you and Wanqing go and check on Hongyu. I'll stay here and work on the small kitchen."

Xiao Jingchuan gave a brief instruction and then turned to go to the backyard.

As Shen Yunsheng hesitated about whether to bring some food to see Li Hongyu, Luo Shi took out a piece of silver from her person and handed it to Shen Yunsheng.

“Jingchuan’s family, take this silver. When you see Hongyu later, give it to her for me.”

"Mother, I have silver, I can just give it to her."

Shen Yunsheng refused her mother-in-law's money. She and her sister-in-law exchanged a glance and left together.
