Chapter 48 Good Reason
The old lady Su stretched out her hand, pulled her to her side, blocked the old man Su's action, and wanted to make him angry, but in fact, the old man Su didn't think that Su Genliang, who was involved in Shuiwozi, would survive.

Xu Xiumeishi watched everyone's reactions.Her heart was sour and astringent.Her icy heart fell into a bottomless pit.At some point, she stretched out her hand to wipe away her tears, but said, "Master Lu of Zhaoji Commercial Bank greeted me yesterday and gave me ten taels of silver."

"What?!" Mrs. Su was furious. "How dare you make up your own mind? Is my son's life worth ten taels of silver?" Mrs. Su was really angry. She stepped forward, slapped Xu Xiumei again, and slapped her hair. fell to the ground.

"Mother!" The two sisters who followed Su Hexiang and Xu Xiumei all the way hid outside the door.At this time, they couldn't help but pushed open the door and rushed in.

"Mother, are you okay?" Su Yunxue and Su Yunman rushed to Xu Xiumei's side from left to right.Su Yunxue helped her up, and the two of them clung tightly to Xu Xiumei's side.

This was the first time Su Yunxue heard about her father.She is already crying.At this time, seeing her mother being beaten, she was heartbroken, hugged her mother and burst into tears.

The old lady Su glared at Su Hexiang, pushed her again, and signaled her to lock the door opened by the little girl to block the view of the villagers outside.

Xu Xiumei raised her hands and held her two daughters in her arms.She finally said: "Uncle was there yesterday."

The eyes of several people in the yard immediately focused on Su Genquan.He opened his mouth and couldn't say a word.

"My uncle was there yesterday, and I discussed the money matter with shopkeeper Lu." Xu Xiumei simply said it all. "Treasurer Lu gave me 20 taels of silver, ten taels is the bounty for Genliang to catch sturgeon, and ten taels is the subsidy that shopkeeper Lu gave us."

"Then how do you say it's ten taels?" Su Hexiang's nimble mouth caused old man Su and his wife to stare.

"My uncle said that Genliang's legacy is to honor his parents and raise children, so he divided the 20 taels of silver into two parts, ten taels for his parents, and ten taels for Haichao." Xu Xiumeihong looked up at her father-in-law and mother-in-law. He said word by word: "My uncle said that he wanted to take away my father and mother's ten taels from me. I thought the elders came to greet me today and asked me if Genliang was found. I didn't expect that my parents didn't know."

Seeing old man Xu, Su Genquan shrank his neck.He knew his father was blaming him for not reporting back yesterday.He explained expectantly: "Yesterday... had homework! It's not... kids... are you back today?!"

Mrs. Xu's heart has always been biased.The youngest son was delayed because of his studies, as if he had won the "gold medal for avoiding death".Instead, she blamed Xu Xiumei: "You know Genquan is busy studying. Why don't you say that he didn't report to you?"

Xu Xiumei was silent, but Mrs. Su didn't intend to let her go.

"What about the other twelve taels?" Mrs. Su stretched out her hand and asked Xu Xiumei to pay.Xu Xiumei never thought that she would really do this.She stared at her with red eyes, bit her lower lip, and said nothing.

Old Madam Su stretched out a finger and poked Xu Xiumei's forehead a few times. "What are you looking at?! Haichao is the blood of our Su family. I don't know what will happen if I follow you, you unlucky bastard!"

"Leave Haichao with your father and me. Where is the money? I left it for Haichao. It saved my grandson money!" Mrs. Su had a good reason.
