"Village chief, why are you helping these shameless people
They are clearly trying to extort money, and they clearly don’t want to leave our Su family or divorce my son.”
Few people in the village don’t know about the Su family’s situation.
The old village chief couldn't stand it, and stomped his cane hard: "Stop yelling."
"Our Xiaohe Village is not some unreasonable bandit den. In a word, do you want your son to be fined and arrested, or give him money and divide the land?"
Liu Chunfang did nothing wrong. She kicked the mother and daughter out of the house for no reason and without dividing anything between them. This is totally unacceptable.
“Mom…” Su Youqing also didn’t want to divide the money and land, but he was more afraid of going to jail.
Even the old village chief stood on the side of those shameless people. Old Mrs. Su was so angry that she almost fainted.
He pinched his son's hand fiercely and said, "It's all your fault. Look at what you've done to this damned girl.
I dare to sue you. If I had known, I would have strangled the baby to death or drowned him in a manure bucket."
Su Youqing's heart moved, and he lowered his voice: "Mom, why don't you keep her?"
"If that girl stays, she can help us with a lot of work. She is old enough to be married, and she can get a dowry."
"That's true. Then let's keep that dead girl." Old Mrs. Su also felt more lively.
This girl has graduated from high school. She can at least marry a temporary worker in a machinery factory. The bride price will definitely be quite high.
Su Youqing suddenly thought of something: "Mom, that damn girl is determined to go to college, what if she makes a scene?"
"Hmph, now that she's in our hands, how can she have a say?"
Old Mrs. Su's inverted triangle eyes were full of meanness and ferocity.
At the other end of the hall, Old Lady Liu was also a little worried:
"Qiao'er, how about we not take the money? Your grandma and your mom will definitely find a way to save money for you to go to college. We can't let you lose your good reputation just for that little bit of money."
Liu Chunfang quickly agreed, "Yes, Qiao'er, Mom will definitely find a way to save money. Mom was too cowardly before, always thinking that I could just bear it and it would pass. You have suffered a lot with Mom over the years, and Mom doesn't want you to suffer anymore."
If your reputation is ruined, it will affect your future schooling, work, and marriage.
It's fine for her to suffer herself, but she can't let her daughter suffer anymore.
Old Lady Liu sighed, and grabbed Su Qiao's rough and cracked hands, feeling distressed:
"You, you endured the hardships and swallowed your anger, but you couldn't even protect Qiao'er. Look at how thin she has become. Look at her hands. Do they still look like hands for reading and writing?"
"When you lost the baby, I told your dad that you can come back anytime you want, and we two old people can support you.
But you just wouldn't listen. After all these years of nagging, now you still want a divorce, don't you?"
Thinking of how much she owed her parents over the years, Liu Chunfang couldn't stop crying: "Mom, I'm sorry. I'm sorry to you and Dad."
Old Lady Liu sighed sadly:
"Forget it. You have such a soft temper. It's because your father and I didn't teach you well. If we had taught you to be more strong, you wouldn't be like this."
She thought of her granddaughter's behavior just now, and she was relieved to wrap Su Qiao's small hand with her big hand: "Fortunately, my Qiao'er didn't have the same temper as you."
Su Qiao looked at the back of his skinny hands and the palms covered with calluses, and the corners of his mouth twitched silently.
How poor must one be and how badly must one eat to grow up like this
Although her hair was braided and hung down behind her, one could tell from the dry hair around her ears that looked like weeds that her face wasn't much to look at.
