Joyful Motherhood in a Rural Family-Chapter 482 - : Everyone is Truly Well

Chapter 482: Chapter 482: Everyone is Truly Well

“Don’t bother denying it. We know exactly what you’re thinking.”

Liu Sisi turned her gaze to Ms. Zhao, “It’s a pity that after so many years of marriage, you still don’t know what your husband really wants. No wonder you don’t receive his love and care!”

Ms. Zhao suddenly stopped struggling, staring blankly at Liu Sisi. The meaning in her words…

A moment later, she struggled even more fiercely, constantly whimpering and calling out.

“As for you, don’t pretend you didn’t want to harm me. I know exactly what you want.”

Liu Sisi turned her gaze to Ms. Wang, “Haven’t you always wanted your Brother Gao to go to school? I can support his education, but on one condition.”

These words made Ms. Wang’s eyes light up!

She’s offering to support Brother Gao’s education? She can’t possibly say no to such an opportunity! Ms. Wang desperately nodded her head, also whining and calling out.

“If you agree to my condition, I’ll cover your Brother Gao’s education expenses from now on!”

While speaking, Liu Sisi stood up and casually removed the cloth gagging Ms. Wang’s mouth.

Ms. Wang hurriedly exercised her sore and stiff jaw, disregarding her physical discomfort, and urgently asked,

“Are you serious about what you said just now?”

“Of course! But as I said earlier, I can help Brother Gao with his education expenses, on the condition that you agree to my terms.”

Actually, she had thought about this long ago.

Brother Gao was eager to learn, but Ms. Wang was stingy. He had turned thirteen already and still spent his days wandering around aimlessly.

As for the monthly expenses of tens of taels of silver, she could just think of it as buying an extra piece of clothing!

These words made Ms. Wang’s eyes light up!

“State your condition! Third Sister-in-law, I knew you had a kind and compassionate heart! Once Brother Gao gains knowledge and makes a name for himself, he’ll be sure to thank you properly!”

“No! I, Liu Sisi, don’t dare to hope for thanks. As long as he can live a good life, that’s enough!”

Liu Sisi waved her hand at Ms. Wang, saying that people could see the future when they were three years old.

Now, even when Brother Gao saw her, he would ignore her. What about the future?

“My condition is simple. Di Cheng took a liking to Xiao Feng, the blacksmith’s daughter in the small town. Just take this marriage arrangement seriously, and if it’s settled, our deal is complete.”

“Impossible! Third Sister-in-law, are you treating me, Ms. Wang, like a monkey to play with?”

Upon hearing this, Ms. Wang’s face immediately changed, “I heard that Xiao Feng wants a house in the town and 100 taels of silver as betrothal gifts. Is she taking me for a fool? No! Absolutely not!”

Anything that involved Ms. Wang spending money was out of the question!

Liu Sisi narrowed her eyes, “Second Sister-in-law, don’t wail here. No outsiders can hear you. How much money did Di Cheng earn last year, and how much did you get from him? Should I tell the exact amount to see if it matches?”

“This… this is what he should have given me as filial piety.” Ms. Wang said with a guilty conscience.

“All you have to do now is take out part of the money he gave you and use it for Di Cheng’s marriage. You don’t even need to spend a penny of your own. What more do you want?” Liu Sisi felt her temples throbbing.

Ms. Wang gritted her teeth, “No! I can’t come up with that money. Are you trying to kill me?”

“Fine, since you disagree, let’s forget about it. After all, these two are your children. If you don’t care about them, I’m just a Third Aunt, so why should I stick my nose into it?” With that, she stood up from her chair and walked slowly towards the door.

Ms. Wang’s face crumpled with agony; giving back the silver from her stomach was like asking for her life!

Liu Sisi let out a sigh in her heart!

Poor Di Cheng, such a simple and honest child, dealing with such a mother was really too much!

“How about this! You pay for Di Cheng’s residence and betrothal gifts when he proposes, and I’ll cover all the expenses for his wedding. How does that sound?”

“But…”

Ms. Wang’s eyes rolled around, not knowing what kind of scheme she was plotting.

“If you want to be even greedier, be careful not to let the chicken fly and the eggs break, and end up with nothing!”

Liu Sisi said with a hum, her hand already touching the door, “If you still don’t agree, I’ll leave right now!”

“Fine! I’ll do as you say. You will pay for all the wedding expenses.”

Ms. Wang’s eyes were spinning rapidly, with her words, what was there to be afraid of? When Di Cheng got married, if she could secretly steal some silver…hehe!

How could Liu Sisi not understand the sinister intentions in Ms. Wang’s eyes?

However, when the time really came, things might not be hers to say!

“Deal! I’ll pay Brother Gao’s education gift until he’s 20, and I’ll cover Di Cheng’s wedding expenses.”

“Why before the age of 20? You didn’t say that just now!” Ms. Wang complained.

“Do you expect me to pay for Brother Gao’s education for a lifetime if he goes to school for a lifetime? There has to be a time limit. If you’re not satisfied, the deal is off. I just remembered that I won’t get any benefits from this, and I’ll be putting out the money.”

Liu Sisi spoke, feigning dissatisfaction, but advancing her cause.

“Why are you like this?…Fine! We’ll agree on that!”

Ms. Wang was happy too!

Although she had to spend 100 taels of silver, compared to Brother Gao’s education gift, it was nothing.

The most important thing was that the combined amount would cost the third family branch a lot of silver.

Liu Sisi was also satisfied in her heart. Actually, not only Brother Gao, but she also planned to send Di Jie to school. However, Di Jie was still young, and it was not time to discuss this matter. As for Di Wei, who had won her heart, she planned to find an opportunity to cultivate him well. She couldn’t let Ms. Wang raise these two children into wastrels.

Only when everyone benefits is it truly good! Of course, she didn’t plan on telling Ms. Wang this right now.

“Alright, let’s agree on that.”

As Liu Sisi spoke, she took out paper and pen and wrote down the details of the agreement. Then she brought it to Ms. Wang, untied the ropes binding her hands, and handed her the papers.

“Sign it!”

Ms. Wang got a good deal, and she was overjoyed, so naturally, she didn’t mind and stamped her handprint directly on the paper.

A flash of brightness quickly appeared in Liu Sisi’s eyes and disappeared just as quickly.

Ms. Zhao, standing beside her, saw that Ms. Wang got her freedom and a great advantage. She hated not being able to snatch it away with her eyes gleaming.

Yet, despite her struggles, no one paid her any attention. Out of desperation, she lifted her leg and kicked Ms. Wang.

“Ouch! Mom, why are you kicking your daughter-in-law?”
