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.
