Chapter 9
Wang Chunhua was even more agitated than He Jinbao when she heard Su Li’s words.
She relied on that money to live a good life every month. If Su Li went back on her word, what would she eat and drink?
“It’s the same every month, but you’re saying that I’m just spouting nonsense? I think you don’t want to admit it!”
“Third daughter-in-law, let me tell you. You were the one who agreed to this. Your name was signed and your fingerprint was pressed on it. If you don’t give me the money, I’ll immediately burn down your small dilapidated house.”
Wang Chunhua wished she could point at Su Li’s nose.
After hearing Wang Chunhua’s words, some familiar and unfamiliar scenes appeared in Su Li’s mind.
The original Su Li was lazy and could not be bullied. Wang Chunhua did not even like her own son, let alone a daughter-in-law who was not related by blood.
Every time they ate, Wang Chunhua would give some soup to Su Li. Su Li was so big that she could not eat her fill at all. She was on the verge of collapse every day.
Wang Chunhua, her mother-in-law, was torturing her. Her sisters-in-law did not get along with her. Usually, she would be the one to do the dirty and tiring work. Two out of three sentences they said were meant to mock her. The treatment of the original owner of this house was worse than that of a dog.
Su Li’s bad temper could not tolerate such treatment at all. She made a fuss every other day, but no matter how much she made a fuss, no one paid attention to her. Even her husband, He Yufeng, treated her coldly.
After Su Li gave birth, she realized that He Yufeng doted on the children very much. Su Li felt that her chance had come.
In order to verify her thoughts, Su Li used the children to test He Yufeng a few times. From that, she realized that this trick was really useful. As long as she used the child as an excuse, He Yufeng would compromise with her. This was something that had never happened in the past. Hence, when the child was just one month old, Su Li made their family break from the main family.
When Wang Chunhua heard this, she wished she could clap and cheer. Wang Chunhua was very dissatisfied with the fact that Su Li had given birth to two children from the beginning. She felt that these two children could not help the family at all before they were three years old. Suddenly, there were two more mouths to feed at home. No matter how much they ate, it was food.
When she grew up, she still had to spend money on them to get married. After getting married, they had to have children. There were so many irrelevant people whom she had to spend money to feed. The more Wang Chunhua thought about it, the angrier she became. A vicious sprout appeared in her mind.
She wanted to shoo He Yufeng’s family out and not give them a single cent. It would be best if they could give her all the money they had earned.
However, she also felt that it was unlikely. Putting aside whether He Yufeng agreed or not, wouldn’t their backbone be poked to death if they split up like this?!
Wang Chunhua couldn’t bear to part with the money He Yufeng earned from hunting, but she didn’t want to continue raising idle people!
He Yufeng would not mention the separation, so Wang Chunhua could only make a move on Su Li. If Su Li mentioned the separation, Wang Chunhua would have the initiative.
Hence, she took advantage of the fact that Su Li was in her confinement period and tried all ways to bully her. He Yufeng scolded Su Li in the courtyard when she had nothing to do. She even secretly let Su Li’s sisters-in-law join her camp.
Su Li and her sisters-in-law understood what Wang Chunhua meant and were overjoyed. After all, if they chased Su Li’s family out, there would be one less person to split the assets in the future. They naturally supported such a good thing.
As expected, Su Li could no longer hold it in and started to ask to split up.
Wang Chunhua laughed in her heart, but she still looked reluctant and tried to persuade them to stay.
When Su Li saw Wang Chunhua’s hypocritical appearance, she wanted to vomit. She wished she could rush up and tear off Wang Chunhua’s face.
When the villagers heard that the daughter-in-law of the He family was breaking up the family, they also ran over to persuade Su Li. After all, she had just given birth. If they split up, there would be less labor. He Yufeng alone might not be able to support the mother and sons.
No matter who it was, Su Li refused to listen to all the persuasions. She insisted on splitting up and even threatened to jump into the river with her children.
