Just the portion of the money from selling the ginseng?
Why does the wife seem to distance herself from him again?
She doesn’t want the money he earns?
"Now that you can do business, why don’t you take that money as capital?"
The wife also knows about this.
"I will keep this part for the household expenses, and when you earn big money later, you can give it to me."
In an instant, Zhao Tianlei felt relieved, "That’s good, your man will definitely make big money in the future, and then I’ll let the wife enjoy a good life."
Yun Xiaoxiao: When the time comes and you make money, indeed you will let your wife enjoy a good life, ah, but then I can only watch you and the Main Female Character be lovingly affectionate.
"Yes, I believe in you."
After Zhao Tianlei put away the money, he went to check on the homestead, to see how the radishes and cabbages he had planted were doing?
On Li Cuixia’s side, she had stayed in the clinic for two days, not wanting to return home to face her parents’ accusations.
"Girl, my son saved you, you must repay him," a fifty-six-year-old auntie said to Li Cuixia.
After the autumn harvest, Li Cuixia rarely worked in the fields anymore and had turned much paler, but her looks were just so-so.
However, when she woke up in the clinic and learned she hadn’t died, that someone had saved her.
This person was older than her, worked at the meat processing plant, and had some problems with his leg. He had married a wife before, but she had died in childbirth, along with the baby.
Just a few days ago, while visiting relatives, he had seen her jump into the river and had saved her.
"Auntie, the elder brother saved my life, and I also want to repay him, but as a girl from the countryside and penniless, I don’t know how I can repay him," Li Cuixia said.
After experiencing life and death, Li Cuixia suddenly saw things clearly.
Why didn’t her parents blame Laosan for his troubles, but instead forced her?
She was a country girl, and the dowry in the village was just a few dozen yuan. So why was it that when it came to her, it was several hundred, not to mention needing "three turns and a sound?"
"Cuihua, the auntie isn’t pressuring you, it’s just that on the day your elder brother took you to the clinic, many people saw it, and now it’s not easy to clear things up. Where is your family? We will come to propose," the auntie said.
At the mention of this, Li Cuixia immediately began to cry, explaining some of the family matters through her sobs.
The auntie was momentarily stunned, her lips quivering a few times, "That much?"
Through her son had a job, the family couldn’t afford to give that much.
"Auntie, I am willing to marry the elder brother and there’s no need to inform my family," Li Cuixia said.
Li Cuixia seemed to have become a bit smarter now.
If she returned home, she could imagine what she would face.
For the sake of Laosan, her parents would surely sell her off.
By then, her husband might be decades older than her for all she knew.
She didn’t dare to take that gamble.
At least by marrying the elder brother, he had a job that could support her.
"Alright then!" The auntie acted quickly, as they were both from the town and didn’t need a house from the meat processing plant, having their own yard.
Without the presence of her maternal family, Li Cuixia got married off.
On the other side, Li Laosan’s family searched for half a day, ultimately unable to find her.
They caused a commotion at the Cao Family’s again.
This time, Cao Dali was at home and saw Li Laosan and his son come to make a scene.
"The person you’re looking for isn’t at our house."
Li Laosan and his son, utterly clueless on where to find Li Cuixia, reasoned that since Cao Dali had dated their girl, if she had gone to find someone, Cao Dali would definitely be at the top of the list.
That’s why they came knocking.
