The Lucky Star Reincarnates to Bring Her Family Fortune!-Chapter 48 - Severing Relationship

48 Severing Relationship
After guessing the other party’s motive, Zhou Xiaoli quickly came up with a plan.

She secretly pinched her thigh and finally squeezed out a tear from her eyes. “Grandma, are you really willing to let us go back? That’s great. You don’t know this, but our family can’t survive anymore,” she said gratefully.

“All the money we have on us was used to treat Father’s illness and to buy medicine. Father finally woke up just now. However, his waist was broken and he’s lying on the bed now. He can’t move at all. He has to eat, drink, and poop on the bed. The doctor said that he has to rely on medicine for the rest of his life in the future.”

As she spoke, she started crying again. “Fortunately, Grandmother, you’re willing to let us go back. From now on, Father’s medicine bill will be settled. The medicine doesn’t cost much anyway. It’s just one tael a day. Grandmother, you can definitely afford it. Father is saved.”

Upon hearing this, Lai Jinniang and her daughters widened their eyes in disbelief.

“What! You said that you’ve used up all your money?”

“You’re saying that your father isn’t dead? And he needs one tael of silver a day to buy medicine?”

…

The expressions on their faces were very interesting.

Zhou Xiaoli nodded. “That’s right. My mother was frightened yesterday and unfortunately contracted tuberculosis. My entire family was just worrying about it when you came. It’s great that we can go back.”

After saying that, she gave Zhang Lan a look. Although Zhang Lan did not know what Zhou Xiaoli wanted to do, she cooperated and coughed. The more she coughed, the worse she sounded.

“Cough, cough, cough. That’s right, Mother. Cough, cough, cough. That’s great.”

Zhou Xiaoyu and Zhou Junjun also cried for their mother.

As soon as she spoke, Lai Jinniang and the other two instantly jumped a meter away from Zhou Xiaoli and the others, covering their mouths and noses.

She said in horror, “Tuber, tuberculosis?”

Tuberculosis was contagious. It would be fatal for poor people like them!

Zhou Xiaoli nodded. “Yes.”

As she spoke, she coughed twice. “Cough, cough. Mother, look, Grandma is here to bring us back. Let’s pack up and go back with Grandma!”

As she spoke, she pretended to pack her things.

This frightened Lai Jinniang and the other two.

Zhou Guihua jumped three feet high and roared, “Dream on! Who’s here to pick you up?!”

“Mother is right. You guys are a family of nuisances and jinxes!”

“You wanted to come back to harm my family after contracting tuberculosis. Not only did you want to suck my family’s blood dry, but you also want us to contract tuberculosis. Why are you so wicked?!”

Zhou Guihua’s words were full of energy.

Zhou Xiaoli looked hurt and coughed even harder. “A-Aunt, what are you talking about? Didn’t you just say that my father is also my grandmother’s biological son? And you can’t bear to watch my father die?”

At this moment, Lai Jinniang stopped pretending. Regardless of whether they had spent all 50 taels of silver, they could not go home with them!

She immediately snorted. “What biological child? Had I known that your entire family is so wicked to want to harm our entire family. I shouldn’t have saved him then and let him die by the roadside!”

Zhou Xiaoli: “Grandma, are you really not going to care about us anymore? After all, you’re my father’s mother, our grandma!”

“No, you can’t leave our entire family to die. We must go back with you today. Mother, pack your things. Let’s bring Father home!”

Lai Jinniang was afraid that this family would stick to her, so she shouted, “Stop! You’re not allowed to come back. From now on, I’m no longer your grandmother!”

Zhou Xiaoli was secretly delighted in her heart, but she put on a pained expression on her face. “Grandmother, you, what do you mean by this? Do you want to sever ties with our entire family completely?”

Hearing Zhou Xiaoli’s words, Lai Jinniang immediately said, “Yes, that’s right. From now on, we have nothing to do with each other!”
