Chapter 399: You’re Heartless

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

How could it be so easy to get forgiveness after harming a grandson of the Zhao family?

...

Village Chief Zhao did not give them any face and left.

Madam Qu hurriedly chased after him again. Her eyes were filled with tears as she questioned as if she had been wronged, “In-law, are you really so heartless?”

Village Chief Zhao felt disgusted when he heard the word “in-law”. “Get lost!”

With such in-laws, he must have done something immoral in his previous life and not been forgiven by the heavens.

Madam Qu flew into a rage out of humiliation and shouted at Village Chief Zhao, “My son is going to support me until my death. If you send my son to jail, without a job, Yan Tingting will be in charge of the rest of my life! My monthly retirement money can’t be less than 50 taels of silver!”

If Yan Da was sent to prison, Madam Qu still had two sons. She was still young, but she actually had the cheek to let her married daughter pay for her life expenses!

…..

This was too shameless.

The surrounding people who knew what Madam Qu had done could not help but retort, “You have two sons! You just caused your girl’s child to be lost. How can you have the cheek to make such a demand!”

“That’s right! I’ve never seen such a shameless person!”

“A married daughter is like water that has been splashed out. How can you let your daughter take care of you when you’re old? It’s not like all your sons are dead.”

“It’s fine if she treats her youngest daughter better, but all she cares about is scheming against her daughter. If not for the fact that Yan Tingting has a good husband like Zhao Yuan, 1 don’t know how much she would have suffered.”

Zhao Yuan could earn a lot of money in a year. Many families even wanted to marry their daughters to Zhao Yuan as concubines.

Zhao Yuan was a sincere person. He only had eyes for Yan Tingting. Yan Tingting had a miscarriage, was already old and had such a difficult mother. Many people could not wait for Zhao Yuan to despise Yan Tingting and divorce her before marrying them.

When Madam Qu heard them criticize her, she argued, “Since ancient times, it has always been the eldest branch who pays for the parents’ retirement. Their family sent my son to jail, so they should support me until my death!”

Village Chief Zhao sneered. “Is your son dead?”

Madam Qu rolled her eyes and said righteously, “Bah, your son is the one who is dying. If my son goes in, his job will be gone. Without a job, he will lose his income. Without his income, he won’t be able to support our family. Yan Tingting is my daughter, so she naturally has to bear this responsibility. Besides, her brother didn’t do it on purpose. It’s all because you made her body so weak that she accidentally had a miscarriage!”

“Either you give me silver every month, or ask the Lord to let my son go!”

Madam Qu’s eldest daughter-in-law even added righteously, “The Great Empress has already stipulated that a married daughter has the same obligation to support and protect her parents! Our family is poor, so Yan Tingting should be responsible!”

Previously, they did not know. Now that they had asked around, when Yan Da was released, Madam Qu would still have to argue with Yan Tingting about how much silver she should give every month.

Village Chief Zhao was so angry that he laughed. “Alright, as long as the Lord gives the order that we should give you money, 1 will definitely not miss a single cent, but your son can forget about being spared from jail!”

“I just don’t know if you’ll live to be 60, the day my daughter-in-law gives you alimony.”

Every child has an obligation to support his or her parents. The first condition is to meet the age of 60. If not, there is an obligation to help unless it is clear that one had no source of income or that one has a physical disability.

Village Chief Zhao knew more than them.

When Madam Qu heard Village Chief Zhao curse her to not live past 60 years old, her face turned green with anger. “You, you, you, I don’t care. You have to get the Lord to let my son go. Otherwise, I’ll go to your house every day!”

Village Chief Zhao was not to be trifled with. “If you don’t want your entire family to be jobless, go ahead and make a fuss!”

The workshop had the right to fire people with bad character.

In an instant, Madam Qu’s heart turned cold.

If her other sons and daughters-in-law lost their jobs because of their eldest son, the entire family would really be in trouble.

Madam Qu was stunned. Her mouth opened, and her strong unwillingness made her unable to say anything. She could only watch Village Chief Zhao leave resentfully.

As soon as they returned home, the officials rushed them to compensate Yan Tingting with money.

The second and third branches had long hidden themselves. Madam Qu made a scene and said, “1 have no money! Yan Tingting is my daughter. How can she make me pay!”

If Madam Qu claimed that she could not fork out the money, it was impossible for Yan Tingting to really force her biological brother to a dead end.

However, the officials did not care who Yan Tingting was. They only had one mission that day, and that was to get Madam Qu to pay.

If Madam Qu said no, it was very simple. The officer in the lead took out the official order. “If you don’t have money, use your house to pay for it.”

As soon as he said this, Madam Qu and her eldest daughter-in-law were dumbfounded.

How could they compensate with the house? It was such a good house, and everyone was eagerly waiting to move in.

In order to make herself more comfortable living with the eldest branch, Madam Qu specially took out 10 taels of silver and exchanged it for a larger villa. Not only was there a front yard, but there was also a spacious backyard. After she moved in, she would show off to everyone.

This house could not be mortgaged!

Madam Qu hurriedly said, “Sir, the one who had a miscarriage is my biological daughter. She was just angry for a moment and won’t be angry in two days. Don’t take our house! My house is worth at least 50 taels!”

The leading soldier could not stand Madam Qu’s behavior. Although she said that Yan Tingting was her biological daughter, she did not show any concern at all. Instead, she complained that Yan Tingting should not have had a miscarriage and should not have asked them to compensate for the money. A trace of disgust flashed across his eyes.

“The value of the mortgaged house definitely can’t be calculated according to the market price. Hurry up. 1’11 say it one last time. Without money, your house will be mortgaged to the government from today onwards.”

No one could go against the government’s words. Madam Qu and her eldest daughter-in-law finally panicked.

They did not want everyone to live in the villa, while they continued to live in tents or under someone else’s roof.

Madam Qu could only borrow money from her second and third sons. Everyone had a job, so they must have saved up some money. She should be able to raise 20 taels of silver.

Unexpectedly, her two sons were surprisingly in unison. “Mother, you still have the silver for your retirement. Help Big Brother pay for it first. When Big Brother comes out and earns money, he will return it to you.”

Madam Qu could tell that they did not want to give her silver, but she still had to save the remaining silver in her hands as retirement money!

She gritted her teeth and said fiercely, “I don’t have money either. If you don’t want to give me money, 1 don’t have anywhere to go. I’ll live with you in the future and ask you for money to spend.”

As soon as she said this, Yan Er and Yan San’s expressions froze. They felt uncomfortable when they thought about how Madam Qu would still have to subsidize their eldest brother’s family after taking their silver.

They looked at each other and thought that it was impossible for Madam Qu to let the eldest branch become homeless. She would definitely take out the silver to compensate the Zhao family. They did not say anything.

In an instant, Madam Qu felt that she had raised a family of ingrates. She had done her best for them, but no one was willing to give up their silver.

She sat on the ground and cried, “1 risked my life for you.. If you didn’t want to plant mushrooms, why would your brother go in? You’re heartless!”
