Chapter 108 Chen Shuning eavesdrops on Gao Erqiang and his wife's conversation
Lin Jianshe raised his hand and knocked He Pandidi's hand away.
He scolded her, "Didn't your parents tell you that you can't point your finger at people? You have no manners."
He Pandi panted, thinking: When this guy came to my house this morning to make trouble, he was quite easy to control, but he lost his composure after a few provocative words. How could he suddenly become such a scoundrel?
Lin Jianshe glanced at Gao Erqiang, then said to He Pandi, "Well, I don't want to blackmail you. Didn't Shuning say 195 yuan?
I'll give you a break. 180 yuan! The remaining 20 yuan will be used as a gift for your two children. Write the IOU and pay it off within five years."
Gao Erqiang shamelessly asked, "Brother, this is still too much. How about 150 yuan?"
Gao Erqiang did the math and decided to pay it off in five years, 30 yuan a year. He could afford it, even though he didn't want to pay.
But he refused to give it, Lin Jianshe disagreed, and Gao Daqiang refused to do it! If these two brothers kept bothering him, how could he still live a peaceful life?
Chen Shuning looked down on Gao Erqiang from the bottom of his heart. This contempt had nothing to do with wealth. After all, everyone was poor now, and Chen Shuning's family was just a little better off than them.
What she despised was Gao Erqiang's irresponsible and timid appearance.
He is a grown man who is willing to sacrifice even his own daughter for his own comfortable life. Chen Shuning looks down on him!
Lin Jianshe was a little unsure and looked up at Chen Shuning.
Chen Shuning opened his mouth and said, "150 yuan is fine. But one-third of your house belongs to Gao Xiu! Even if she gets married in the future, she will still have a share of the house!"
When He Pandi heard this, she was shocked. She had never heard of a girl sharing her mother's family's property.
"Impossible! Gao Xiu is a girl. Once a girl gets married, she belongs to someone else's family. How can she share her mother's family's property?"
Guo Junshan said coldly, "Legally, girls and boys have the same rights, including inheritance rights. Even if the Lin family didn't make this request, Gao Xiu could still get a share of your house."
He Pandi said confidently: "You are talking about the city, we in the countryside don't count that way!"
Chen Shuning retorted, "What's the matter? Don't the laws in rural areas and cities apply to the same thing?"
Gao Erqiang raised his hand and pleaded, "Officer Guo, Director Xiao, could you please let me and my wife discuss this first?"
"Okay!" Guo Junshan agreed readily, and stood up and said, "You two, come with me. I'll find you an office, and you can discuss it."
Chen Shuning took the initiative to make way and watched the three of them walk out.
Chen Shuning followed him out, saying, "I'm going to the bathroom. I'll be back soon!"
They said they were going to the toilet, but after seeing Guo Junshan lead them into another office, Chen Shuning ran to the yard and hid under the window of that office with his back crouched.
"Gao Erqiang, you lied to me again! I followed you and got fooled~"
"Wife, calm down first! Look, we already have two sons. What's the point of saying all that? Let's resolve this matter and live a good life. That's the right thing to do."
"Live? How can I live a good life? 150 yuan, and I have to give Gao Xiu a house, why?"
"Calm down first! Gao Xiu is my daughter after all, and this money isn't going to be spent on outsiders. Besides, she'll have to be filial to us when she grows up!"
"Bah! I have a son, why do I need her to be filial? Don't try to fool me with words, she can forget about the family property!"
"Then let's pay! Just give my brother-in-law 150 yuan to get rid of him~ You heard what he just said, you have to think about your two sons!
If he were to fight us to the death and chase the child around every day, wouldn't we have to live in fear?"
"Oh~ Why am I so miserable~ Woo~"
Chen Shuning held her breath and heard He Pandi slapping her thighs. She quickly covered her mouth for fear that she would laugh.
"Don't cry! Let's solve the problem first~ My brother-in-law doesn't want children, so we have to raise Xiu'er..."
"I won't raise her! Why should I raise her? She's not my child. You promised me when we got married that you wouldn't take her back."
"Isn't there anything I can do? My brother won't agree if I don't take her back! Besides, I've been so good to Gao Shan. Please do me a favor and let Xiu stay at home!"
"Didn't you hear what her uncle said? He has to pay for her schooling, but he can't let her do housework. Isn't that just a waste of money?"
"Brother He Pan! Don't go too far. Isn't Gao Shan a living ancestor who spends money? I dare not hit or scold him. I provide him with good food and drink. Don't I also pay for his schooling?"
"What? You're going back on your word? Gao Erqiang, you're a liar. If you say that before getting married, I won't go with you no matter what!"
"Who else do you want to be with? Brother He Pan, I've been putting up with you for a long time. What do you have to look down on me for? Yes, you can give birth to a son, but Gao Shan is not my son!"
Chen Shuning couldn't see their expressions, but he could tell that Gao Erqiang's tone was very bad.
Perhaps, the fact that Gao Shan is not Gao Erqiang's son is He Pandi's weakness, so she remained silent for a rare time.
Gao Erqiang's voice rang out again: "Look at what you can do! Let me tell you, before you were pregnant, I didn't bother with you. Now that the child is born, I won't indulge you!"
Gao Erqiang couldn't beat Gao Daqiang, and he didn't dare to touch Lin Jianshe. He took out all his anger on He Pandi.
"Are you trying to commit marriage fraud? Gao Erqiang!"
"How did I commit marriage fraud? I'm a widow with a daughter, and you're divorced with a son. We're a perfect match. Do you really think you're still a virgin?"
"Wow..." He Pand's crying voice was heard from the room.
Her only support is Gao Erqiang! Now that Gao Erqiang has turned against her, she has no other choice!
Chen Shuning thought that these two people were in true love, but she didn't expect that she could hear them exposing each other's secrets with her own ears. It was worth squatting in this corner!
"Don't cry, I really want to live with you! In five years, I'll pay off my debts, and life will be better!
I only have one request for you: stop beating Xiu'er! She's a girl, just raise her up and marry her off. She won't compete with my son for the family fortune."
"Wow...why am I so miserable! The first man beat me every day, and now I've found another who cheats on me every day. I can't live like this!"
"If you can't live, then you die~"
Gao Erqiang simply stopped pretending and angrily scolded He Pandi, telling her to go to hell.
He Pandi immediately shut up and didn't make any sound!
"150 yuan is a lot, but I should give it. When I married Xiu's mother, we were broke. But she didn't look down on me..."
My eldest brother-in-law helped me a lot when I was building the house! He also helped me raise my children for so many years. If I do something wrong, how can I survive in the future?
If we don't follow their advice today, we'll either end up in court as defendants or be in the newspapers and be scolded by the whole nation. What do you think we should do?"
He Pandi said timidly, "I don't want to be in the newspaper. It's too embarrassing..."
"That's it! Shut your mouth and don't say a word! Let's talk quickly. I have to go home and hug my son after this!"
Chen Shuning squatted under the windowsill and complained silently: I thought you had a change of heart! After all this fuss, you're still afraid of losing face~ Gao Xiu is really unlucky to have a father like you!
"Cough-cough-"
There were two coughs behind him. Chen Shuning turned around awkwardly. Seeing that it was Guo Junshan, he felt even more embarrassed.
