Chapter 16

Self-blame

Filial piety?

Sheng Lingzhi blinked and looked at the girl leaving and couldn't help but ask: "Xiaoju, why is filial piety?!"

"Sister Lingzhi, you are the eldest sister we all recognize, so of course we must respect you."

"But we are sisters, so why should we be filial?"

"Sister Da Niu said, we used to respect her when she was here. Now that she's gone and you're back, of course we have to respect you."

"...Can you tell me?"

"Sister Da Niu has been a..."

Sheng Lingzhi listened to Sheng Xiaoju's ramble about the past, and then she learned about Su Mingzhu's deeds.

When she came back in her previous life, she occasionally mentioned it in the village, but as soon as she heard about it, her condition worsened, and she would most likely be so depressed that she couldn't eat. After that, people rarely mentioned it in front of her.

After Sheng Lingzhi and Sheng Xiaoju separated, they saw someone at home as soon as they arrived at the door.

She thought she was a guest at home, so she ran over quickly. At this moment, she was suddenly grabbed by a big hand, and she immediately covered her mouth:

"Lingzhi, it's me, your Aunt Liu."

Sheng Lingzhi saw the person clearly and nodded.

He took Aunt Liu's hand away and asked, "Aunt Liu, what's going on mysteriously?"

"Hurry up and hide." Aunt Liu explained in a panic as she pushed her into her home: "Your family owes money to Landlord Zhang. Today, Zhang Gouzi came to collect the debt. If you don't hide..."

"What?!" Sheng Lingzhi was not willing to hide when she heard that this dog was not a good thing. Just as she was about to go out, she was pulled back by Aunt Liu.

"Child! You can't go out." Aunt Liu gave a brief summary of what happened today, and then advised: "He thinks you are decent and wants you to marry the stupid son of a landlord, but you can't let him know.

You are the daughter of the Sheng family, otherwise you will definitely be in big trouble if you turn around."

Even then, how could she hide when there was trouble at home?

Sheng Lingzhi disagreed.

"Auntie, I understand everything you said, but I have to go."

How could she, a member of the family, give up because of difficulties?

"You kid, why don't you understand what Auntie said?" Aunt Liu couldn't help but glanced at the door of Sheng Lingzhi's house and said, "Well, let's take a look here, if there is anything wrong.

, you rush over again, do you think this is good?"

Sheng Lingzhi gritted his teeth: "Yeah."

It can only be this way.

If she cannot reduce the burden on her family, she should not increase the burden on her family.

It's a pity that I was so ill in my last life that I didn't know anything about these things at home. Otherwise, otherwise...it doesn't seem to be able to alleviate the trouble.

These things, in the final analysis, are still money.

She must solve this problem.

Sheng Lingzhi thought and stared at the door of her home.

At the door of her house, the landowner's loser, Butler Zhang, and five or six servants gathered around her door.

Sheng Lingzhi didn't know what her mother said, but Sheng Lingzhi felt pain in her heart when she saw her begging in a low voice.

It's all her own fault. If she had the ability, why would there be such a little trouble at home? I think that when she was in the Su family, this kind of thing could be solved with just a hairpin, but now she has to do this to her mother-in-law.

hateful!!!

Sheng Lingzhi hated herself, biting her lower lip and staring, only hating that she was powerless.

Fortunately, the humble mother over there was pulled behind Chu Chuan, and then he stood in front of her.

It looks quite impressive.

Sheng Lingzhi felt slightly relieved.

I saw Chu Chuan's godless eyes staring at Butler Zhang accurately, and with his expressionless face, he looked panicked.

His appearance shocked Butler Zhang.

Chu Chuan said coldly: "I will pay you whatever you owe."

Li Dahua didn't agree when she heard this. This son-in-law was all her daughter's things. What could he give in return?

She hurriedly pulled Chu Chuan over and begged again in a low voice: "Butler Zhang, my family is really gone. Can you forgive me for a few days? Even if our family doesn't eat or drink, we will definitely pay it back."

"Auntie!" Chu Chuan grabbed Li Dahua, who was groveling. He still had a cold face and said, "How much do you owe? I'll pay it back."

"Shut up!" This time, before Butler Zhang could speak, Li Dahua pulled Chu Chuan over and said, "This is a matter of the Sheng family. You, a son-in-law, are not qualified to participate!"

What Li Dahua said was callous and ruthless, which made her feel extremely uncomfortable.

Ah Chuan, I got it for my beloved grandma, but don’t blame grandma. You really don’t know how much money your family owes. If you continue to talk about it, you will only offend Zhang Gouzi. Then our family will really be desperate.

As expected, Butler Zhang was a little happy when Li Dahua said this, but he still refused to back down.

"Ms. Sheng Li, your real and fake daughters are both rich and powerful. Just a hair can be enough to live on for us ordinary people for several years. What's more, your eldest daughter is so generous. Your family should pay it back as soon as possible."

What else doesn’t Li Dahua understand after saying this?

Isn't it the rumor that the Su family gave a large amount of money to the Sheng family?

But the fact is that there is not.

Li Dahua quickly explained, but Butler Zhang didn't believe it.

"Repaying debts is a matter of course." He said with a cold face: "Ms. Sheng Li, you are unwilling to repay, don't blame us..."

At this moment, Chu Chuan showed something: "Is this enough to pay back?!"

Things were dangling in front of Butler Zhang's eyes. He was about to get angry when he saw clearly what was in front of him, and his small eyes widened instantly.

"pearl!!"

Butler Zhang snatched the pearl in disbelief and held it carefully in his hand.

"Is it enough??"

Chu Chuan's voice was calm and slightly impatient.

Li Dahua ignored Chu Chuan's indifference and stared at the pearl.

My first thought was that these huge beads are beautiful.

Where did this second thought come from? It couldn't be the only thought left for him at home, right?

Although he hasn't asked Chu Chuan yet, Li Dahua has already regarded the huge bead as Chu Chuan's only thought in his previous home.

She wanted to take it back, but Butler Zhang backed away hastily: "Okay, although this pearl is not worth much, I have made the decision. You don't have to pay back the interest. Remember to pay back the principal. Withdraw."

As soon as he finished speaking, he turned around and left with a group of people.

Li Dahua looked at the backs of those people and wanted to scold Chu Chuan angrily, but swallowed the words back.

This silly kid, such a big pearl said that the debt would be low, but without any discussion, he could obviously pay off all the family's debts, and...

Thinking of Li Dahua, she quickly stopped her ridiculous thoughts.

That's not your thing, how can you think like this? She, how did she become like this?

Ah Chuan is so honest, and such precious pearls are so low-payback, how could she have the idea of ​​taking them for herself? She had just entered the Sheng family not long ago, and she had already taken out her precious things and hadn’t even eaten properly.

Forget about the food and let him lose the last bit of thought, ugh~

This family owes him so much~

"Achuan, where did this bead come from? It couldn't have been left to you by your family, right? It's too precious. How can you just pay off the debt just because you said it was a debt? How important is this?" The more Li Dahua thought about it, the more guilty she felt.

The sadder I think about it, the more I can't help but ramble on.

Chu Chuan was just about to explain that this thing was worthless and not an important item, but suddenly he smelled a familiar fragrance in the air, and his mood dropped as he spoke.

He said at a loss: "I'm sorry, grandma. I didn't know that thing was valuable. I thought it was a bead that felt comfortable to touch, so I wanted to help grandma. I didn't want grandma to beg for help."

Li Dahua was deeply moved when she heard this.

She really didn't expect that Chu Chuan was doing it for himself and not asking others.

She had that thought just now.

God~

Li Dahua lowered his head in shame, "Good boy, if you have trouble with your eyes and want to take out something, it's best to let Lingzhi take a look at it. Don't give everything to others hastily. It's not worth it."

She paused and then added: "Especially for something as important as this, given by my family, I just keep it for myself and think about my family."
