Chapter 149: Heartache

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

When the people outside heard this, they whispered to each other. They knew that Su Li had married a hunter. This time, they heard from Jiao Yuying that her son-in-law had gone up the mountain to hunt, so Su Li returned to her maiden home to stay for a while.

From the looks of it, that was not the case. Su Li’s man was about to die and she had run back to her family with her children.

Indeed, as the saying went, husband and wife were birds in the same forest.

However, when a calamity came, they would fly separately.

“This daughter of the Su family has been insensible since she was young. I thought that it would be better if she married off, but it seems like a dog can’t change its ways.”

“That’s right, that’s right. What’s wrong with taking care of her husband when he’s sick? She left him at home and ran away with her children. It’s really unlucky to marry a wife like her!”

“That’s right. Last time, I heard from Jiao Yuying that her son-in-law went hunting in the mountains. That’s why Su Li brought the children back. From the looks of it, it’s all an excuse.’

“That’s right. That’s what Jiao Yuying told me when I asked her last time.

Raising such a daughter tells everyone that the parents are nothing much. Su Ze hasn’t gotten engaged yet. I don’t think any girl from that family is willing to marry over.”

“Pfft, this is a fire pit. Only someone with a hole in their brain would let a girl marry into his family.”

When Wang Chunhua heard the discussion outside, she couldn’t help but smile. Even if Su Li wasn’t afraid of being discussed, weren’t the Su family afraid of being discussed?

Su Ze’s face darkened when he saw everyone discussing. “My sister is not that kind of person. There must be a misunderstanding.”

Wang Chunhua pursed her lips and said, “Misunderstanding? If you don’t believe me, go home and take a look. Third Brother is still lying in bed half-dead. This woman is really heartless. She doesn’t even care that her man is about to die.”

When Su Li heard Wang Chunhua’s words, she sneered and said, “What does his death have to do with me? I can live wherever I want. Just now, you all said that we’ve split up and are from two different families. Now that you’re here to

teach me a lesson, who do you think you are?”

Su Ze couldn’t help but frown when he heard their conversation. Didn’t his brother-in-law go out to hunt? Why did he become half-dead?

Could it be that his brother-in-law was injured from hunting in the mountains, and it was a very serious injury, so his sister ran back to their family?

Su Ze glanced at the overbearing He family and then at Su Li’s cold back. He made a decision in his heart. If his sister wanted a divorce, he would raise both hands in approval.

Anyway, he didn’t like his brother-in-law very much. Most importantly, his sister didn’t like him either. Their whole family didn’t like him. Since all of them didn’t like him, why should they keep him? He should get lost as far as possible.

Wang Chunhua did not expect Su Li to reject her so bluntly. She felt that she would die of anger sooner or later.

After lying in bed for a few days, she finally recovered a little. Now, she felt her heart begin to hurt.

When Madam Zhao saw that Wang Chunhua was at a disadvantage in less than two moves, she stood up and said, “Are you planning to stay in your maiden home forever? Don’t forget that these two children have the surname He.”

Su Li was enlightened. “If you didn’t mention it, I would have forgotten. The child can actually take my surname, Su. After all, the surname He isn’t worth much.”

Madam Zhao was speechless. Why was this woman so stubborn?

Madam Zhao held it in for a long time and said, “Are you so heartless as to watch your man die? It’s said that a husband and wife are forever indebted to each other, not to mention that you have two children.”

Su Li glanced at them. “It’s not that I want to see him die, but you want to see them die. Do you think He Yufeng, who’s lying in bed half-dead, can afford to pay seven taels a month? Or do you think a weak woman like me can afford it?”

“It was fine in the past. After all, in order to pay for his parents’ pension, He Yufeng worked himself to death every month to go hunting in the mountains. But now that he can’t do it anymore, my children and I can’t survive and you keep forcing me to pay. Where should I go to find money for you?”
