523 Xi Tonglin Released From Prison 3
When Xi Tongfang cried poor, his eyes were wet and he choked, "I know it's not easy for my mother, I want to help you, but my son is powerless and has no money left."
After all, I just don't borrow a penny.
Cheng was so angry that he cursed, "I have a ungrateful wolf. Don't think I don't know. The incense and candle shop will earn hundreds of taels of silver a month. How come there is no money for me..."
He said angrily again, "Since that coffin shop is not profitable, why do you still keep it? Sell it, pay off my debts for the money."
"Mom, the coffin shop cannot be sold. That was passed by my father to me. If I sell it, my father would be so angry that he jumped out of the grave to settle the score with me, an unfilial son. Besides, if my elder brother had cut off all the good wood in my forest village back then, would my coffin shop have been in a bleak business?"
After all, it’s not just a blame on Xi Tonglin.
In fact, after his careful management of the coffin shop for a while, it has long since turned from a loss to a profit. Although it doesn’t make much money, only about ten taels of silver a month, it has accumulated more than one hundred taels a year, which is enough for him to buy snacks and pocket money for a few children.
Cheng was so angry that his mouth was tilted, "Didn't you return the money for selling wood to you long ago? Why did you mention it? Your elder brother is still in prison now. Are you still thinking about the slightest bit of his doing? Are you still his brother?"
"Your conscience has been eaten by dogs?"
"Your elder brother has been in prison. Something happened at home. As his father and younger brother, why don't you solve it for him? You are still Alan Ayan's biological uncle. You just treat it as a pity for several nieces and nieces, and you can't stand by and watch."
Cheng's words were fierce and accused him with tears, and he made Xi Tongfang's cold-blooded and ruthless statement, and his relatives refused to recognize him.
Xi Tongfang lowered his head and lowered his eyes, and refused to agree no matter how Cheng scolded him.
"My mother, it's not that I won't help you, I said, I'm powerless, and there's a whole family behind me who wants to eat. If I spend all my money and help you, then I'll go to drink the northwest wind?"
"Ah my mother knows how much money I divided the family when I first split the family. Over the years, I have already paid the money for the prince and a few sisters. Now I don't have any silver in my hands, and I still owe debts but have not paid back."
Xi Tongfang did not nod and continued to cry for poverty.
Cheng pointed at him angrily and cursed, "I don't care about my unfilial son, even my mother's life or death. I want to go to the yamen to sue you. I want to see if you are unfilial, how will Cheng Yuankai judge you?"
"My mother, how come I am unfilial? Don't slander me. On every festival, am I less filial to you? Or do you less wear it? The clothes you are made by your child's mother, and the hairpin on your head, aren't I bought it for you?"
"If you want to sue me for being unfilial, then you can also show you the truth."
"Just because I don't pay back the debt to the big house, you will sue me for being unfilial. Haha, my elder brother and I have already separated. Why should I pay back the debt he owes? Even if you go to the capital to file a lawsuit, it doesn't make sense."
