Chapter 10: Separate families to get the light stone
010 Get the light stone from the branch
Qiaohua was very surprised that Xiyue dared to talk to her like this, her face instantly became gloomy, and there was a fierce look in the depths of her eyes.
She looked around and saw people looking at them. For the sake of her own face, she softened her tone and said: "Why are you kid talking like this? How long has it been? You are still showing your temper. Go back and pack your things quickly."
Ask your mother to take you to Wu’s house.”
"I'm not going." Xiyue said coldly.
"Xiyue~"
There was another displeased female voice, and the original hostess came out of a tree house on the second floor. She looked very angry when she looked at her.
When he saw her looking a little embarrassed at this time, he hurried down and pulled her and said: "Go back to the house and see how you look like? What's going on between you and Wu Chen?"
Xiyue was very unhappy being dragged by her. In her impression, the original mother was okay with her, but of course she didn't care for her more than Xiqing!
"Mom, I told you, it wasn't me who was wrong. I didn't do anything nasty to him. It was him who planned to ruin my reputation and then marry a wife for nothing.
It's just using a woman's reputation as a blackmail, and you all know the situation of the Wu family, and everyone knows that he can't find a wife, why don't you believe what I say and trust outsiders?" Xiyue looked very disappointed.
With Naru.
If a mother doesn't trust her child, wouldn't the original parent's death be in vain?
Naru pursed her lips tightly, her face flushed with embarrassment as she looked at more and more neighbors paying attention to her family's affairs.
In order not to continue to be embarrassed, and because he understood his daughter's temper better, he sighed and said insincerely: "Stop talking, no one will believe what you say."
"Then you don't believe it either?"
"I"
Naru looked at her eldest daughter looking at her in a daze, and suddenly her tone softened: "Xiyue, mother, mother believes it, hurry into the house."
"snort!"
Seeing her obviously perfunctory words, Xiyue threw her away in displeasure and returned to her tree house.
"Second younger brother and sister, is this the good daughter you disciplined? You did that shameful thing outside, and now you want to contradict me as an elder when you come back?" Qiao Hua had nowhere to express her anger, so she yelled at Na Ru.
voice.
Naru was very embarrassed. Thinking of her current situation, she looked at her sister-in-law with some flattery and said apologetically: "Sister-in-law, it's all my fault. I didn't make good friends with my daughter."
"Hmph, of course it's you, you uneducated thing. Naru, get her out of the Xi family quickly, or you and your family will get out too! Don't ruin the reputation of our Xi family here, my daughter is going to get married."
Xiyue walked halfway up the stairs, turned around and yelled: "I told you, it's not my fault, why are you apologizing?"
The two of them were startled by Xiyue's roar and looked up at her at the same time.
Qiaohua said angrily: "Look, look, this is the good daughter you taught, she won't ruin the reputation of our Xi family.
No, let’s break up the family. Let’s break it up now. We, the eldest, can’t afford to lose this person to you!”
“Sister-in-law, you can’t, Ah He, he is seriously injured now, and you haven’t even given me the money to treat him, how can we separate our families?!
After all, Xinan is still young and cannot support the family."
Qiaohua raised her head and chin a little arrogantly, looking aloof, and it was very helpful to see Naru's humble look.
"That's enough, mother, can you have some backbone? Over the years, anyone with a discerning eye can see that it is the second wife who is raising the big brother.
What are you asking her for in such a humble way? My father is injured, but he is not dead!" Xiyue was speechless.
"Xiyue, shut up. Your father's injury is very serious. Even if he recovers in the future, he will not be able to hunt anymore.
It’s not like you don’t know that your brother’s body is not suitable for hunting, and we will have to rely on your uncle’s family in the future!”
Naru looked at her unsatisfactory daughter and scolded her angrily.
She secretly regretted in her heart that she shouldn't have been replaced because of that incident in the first place.
And now, and now.
She really couldn't figure out how a child who had always been very obedient could suddenly change his temperament?!
"What do you rely on them for?
Are you too cowardly?
In which year did my father risk his life to get salt and earn 20 light stones!
After so many years, without my father going to fetch salt and go hunting every day, their family would have to go begging for food!" Xiyue turned around and came down from upstairs and said sternly.
"Sister, please stop talking."
"Shut up!" Xiyue looked at Xiqing rudely.
Is this family stupid? After being exploited like this, they still want to beg others in return?!
"Auntie, do you want to separate the family? Okay?!
Let’s not talk too far, let’s just say that in the past three years, my father went to get salt every year and earned a total of 60 light stones!
50 Guangshi is the daily expenses for an ordinary family with a minimum of ten people for nearly 10 years!
So, you must have more than this number of light stones in your hands over the years, right?
We don’t want any more, just give us 100 light stones, and our two families will officially separate. From now on, we will live our own lives, and no one will owe the other!”
"Are you crazy? 100 light stones, let me tell you, your family doesn't have to eat without even one light stone?" Qiaohua exploded when she heard that Xiyue wanted 100 light stones.
If she had 100 light stones in her hand, would she need to throw away her second wife and her whole family now?
That sick man is already a semi-wasted person. He will no longer make money for the family in the future, but will only spend it, which will drag them down, so this is the best opportunity to separate the family!
It is true that her second son, who is not living up to expectations, really spends a lot of money, and she really doesn't have much money in her hands.
Naru was also a little shocked. She didn't expect her sister-in-law to have such a violent reaction.
Thinking that my husband had been collecting salt for fifteen years and earned a total of 300 light stones. Even if they combined the two houses together, they would not have spent 100 light stones in all these years.
Then the sister-in-law must have about 200 light stones in her hand, and it is reasonable for her daughter to want 100 light stones.
"Of course our family needs to eat, but don't forget, apart from what my dad earns from collecting salt, what about hunting?
Don’t you earn lightstones from hunting, herbal medicine, and wild fruits?!
The food my mother and I found was enough for daily consumption.
And which day does our whole family not work?
On the other hand, everyone in your family is either staying at home and raising the eldest daughter, or going to school to make money!
Finally, a pawn was created, but it will drive you crazy!
You dare to say that you don’t have 100 light stones, so where have all the light stones gone?
Our two families are not separated. You are the eldest brother, so my father’s Guangshi is all placed in the public house and is under your control because he trusts my aunt.
Your family should have taken advantage of it over the years, right?
My father was seriously injured. Not only did you not use the light stone to treat my father's injury, you also proposed to separate the family.
When a family is divided, the family is divided. At least the existing property must be divided equally between the two families!
Even if you have two sons, your grandparents are gone and you don’t have to support the elderly, so you can’t lose even one hundred light stones!”
