Chapter 665: Return It to You
Hu Changshou refused to leave.
Su Xiaozhi’s tears had already dried up. There was nothing she could do. It was useless to regret it.
She wanted to call Hu Changshou up for dinner, but he didn’t.
He would only say, “My life is yours. If you want to take it away, kill me. I’ll return it to you.” Apart from this, Hu Changshou was unwilling to say anything else.
At night, Su Xiaozhi went to the village to deliver food. Her eyes were red and swollen.
She was late. As soon as she arrived, she heard Madam Wang cursing.
Madam Wang knocked on the head of the bed fiercely, making clunking sounds. As she knocked, she cursed. Su Dalang and Su Erlang’s families did not care. No one approached the room where Madam Wang and Old Master Su lived.
Su Xiaozhi was sad. She pushed the door open and entered. Before she could speak, Madam Wang hit her with a stick. Immediately after, she cursed viciously, “You rotten b*tch. B*tch, do you want us to die? Are you the same as those with rotten consciences? Why are you only here now? Do you want to starve us to death?”
Su Xiaozhi’s heart was filled with grievances. She picked up the stick on the ground and choked. She clearly wanted to complain about her grievances to Madam Wang, but her words were covered by Madam Wang’s vicious curses. She could only swallow all her grievances and silently take out the food for Madam Wang without saying anything.
She fed Old Master Su with tears in her eyes.
Madam Wang cursed as she ate, “Cry, cry, cry. Cry until you die, you rotten thing. If you want to die, you should die. The two of us will definitely live for a long time. Let’s see you rotten things die one by one!”
Su Xiaozhi wiped away her tears as she fed Old Master Su.
Old Master Su could no longer speak. He could only move his fingers.
He looked at Su Xiaozhi with unfamiliar emotions in his eyes.
Su Xiaozhi endured the intense grief in her heart and wiped away her tears repeatedly. She fed Old Master Su mouthful by mouthful.
After feeding Old Master Su, Su Xiaozhi cleaned up the old man’s bed and washed him up.
Madam Wang was already done eating, but she was still cursing.
What Su Xiaozhi did not notice was that Madam Wang was also crying.
After Su Xiaozhi packed up and was about to go back, Su Xiaozhi felt her sleeve being pulled. She turned around and saw Old Master Su grabbing her sleeve tightly.
Su Xiaozhi was puzzled. She choked and said, “Father, I’m going back.”
Old Master Su’s eyes narrowed as if he had something to say.
Madam Wang hit the bed with a stick. “Damn b*tch, can’t you see that your father wants to speak? Leave. If you leave, your rotten heart will die.”
Madam Wang’s curses pierced Su Xiaozhi’s heart. She pried open Old Master Su’s hand and realized that there was a piece of gold in Old Master Su’s palm. She was stunned.
She looked at Madam Wang. Madam Wang avoided her gaze and said very softly, “Just take what your father gave you. Anyway, none of you are good people. I might as well give it to you.”
After cursing softly, Madam Wang slammed the bed with a stick and scolded loudly, “I’ll beat you to death, you piece of trash. You bring me pig food every day. You will be struck by lightning sooner or later.”
Su Xiaozhi saw that Madam Wang’s stick was hitting the edge of the bed and did not really hit her.
With tears in her eyes, she took the gold. Old Master Su no longer grabbed her. Instead, he slowly closed his eyes.
Su Xiaozhi left the house in a sorry state.
Outside, Madam Li and Madam Zhou were watching the show. Seeing Su Xiaozhi come out in a sorry state, Madam Li smiled and said sarcastically, “Xiaozhi, it’s been hard on you. With Mother like this, we don’t even dare to go in. Looks like it’s good to have a daughter. Daughters are more considerate.”
Madam Zhou also echoed and said with a smile, “Xiaozhi, I’ll have to trouble you to take good care of Father and Mother. When the autumn harvest comes this year, I’ll give you some food. It’s not that I don’t want to do my best, but I’m already old and my body can’t withstand Mother’s rod. After all, you were born by Mother. You’re the flesh that fell from Mother’s body. Mother won’t really hurt you.”
Madam Zhou thought that she was more scheming than Madam Li and spoke better than her.
Su Xiaozhi felt very tired and did not want to say a word. She left numbly.
No matter how beautiful Madam Li and Madam Zhou’s words were, it could not change the fact that they did not take care of her parents.
Madam Wang knew how to hit people. It was very painful, so how could it not hurt?
Su Xiaozhi packed her things and left. She had to cook again and wash the dirty sheets.
After Su Xiaozhi left, Madam Li and Madam Zhou changed their attitude.
Madam Li looked at Su Xiaozhi’s departing back and said to Madam Zhou, “Sister-in-law, tell me, why is Xiaozhi doing this? Did Father and Mother secretly give her money?”
Madam Zhou also fell into deep thought. “How would I know? Didn’t we split it when we split up?”
Madam Li thought that it made sense. Once Old Master Su fell, Madam Wang was nothing to be afraid of. She was just a paper tiger. Everything was because of Old Master Su.
Therefore, after Old Master Su fell, they split up. No matter how Madam Wang scolded them, she could not stop them.
When they entered the town, Old Master Su did not go, nor did Madam Wang.
They all left them behind as a matter of course. Su Xiaozhi took over and saved them the trouble.
However, they could not rule out the possibility that the old couple was still hiding some money.
With this thought in mind, Madam Li rolled her eyes and wanted to secretly take a look tonight.
Madam Zhou and Madam Li thought of the same thing.

When Su Xiaozhi returned home and saw that Hu Changshou was still kneeling, she went over and showed him the gold. She choked and said, “Shou, look, your grandfather gave this to me. Mother didn’t do anything wrong. They gave this to me.”
A piece of gold was worth a lot of money. It comforted Su Xiaozhi’s scattered heart and gave her the courage to firmly believe that she had done the right thing.
Hu Changshou looked at the dazzling gold and smiled sarcastically. “Hehe, congratulations, mother. With this gold, the pain in Mother’s body won’t hurt anymore. As long as Mother feels happy.”
Hu Changshou looked at Su Xiaozhi’s scarred hand. Some of the bruises were caused by Madam Wang.
If there were so many visible scars, what about the hidden ones?
Hu Changshou’s sarcasm made Su Xiaozhi’s heart ache. She retracted her hand in shame. She didn’t know if she wanted to hide the gold or hide her hand.
Su Xiaozhi did not know what to do. Hu Changshou did not touch the food she had placed in front of him.
She had clearly obtained a piece of gold. She clearly felt that her efforts were not in vain, but why did her heart still hurt so much?
Su Xiaozhi knelt on the ground and looked at Hu Changshou sadly. “My son, can you not torture me? I beg you. Boohoo… my heart hurts.”
Hu Changshou’s expression was cold. “I’m not torturing Mother. I’m just returning what you want. How can I have the right to torture you? You’ve always been torturing us. You’ve never said these words in front of Grandpa and Grandma, right?”
