Chapter 227 How much is it, go get it with your mother!
When Xu Ronghuan saw Cao Qiufeng like that, a feeling of uneasiness made him feel angry, and he immediately cursed at Xu Hengliang:
"We are discussing dad's funeral now. Which one is more important, your marriage or dad's funeral?"
Xu Ronghuan asked sternly, but this time Xu Hengliang no longer allowed him to say anything without saying a word like in the past.
I saw Xu Hengliang raised his head and asked: "Brother, don't stand and talk without hurting your back.
You already have two children, and I’m still a bachelor!
According to the custom here, a person who dies in the family must get married within a hundred days, otherwise, it will take three years to get married.
I'm seventeen, if I don't hurry up and get married now, will I wait three years?
I will be twenty by then, will my mother-in-law follow me?
Am I going to be a bachelor for the rest of my life?!"
After saying that, Xu Hengliang looked at Cao Qiufeng again: "Mom, where are the twelve taels of money you and dad saved for me to marry my wife? Take it out!"
"Brother, I will definitely not miss you one-third of what I should bear.
But according to our custom here, three taels are enough for a decent coffin. Brother, I will never miss you the one tael I have.
But it’s absolutely impossible for me to pay again!”
"you……"
Xu Ronghuan frowned and raised his eyebrows.
Are Xu Hengliang and Xu Xiangning going to heaven?
"Mom, where is the money I paid to marry my mother-in-law?"
Seeing Cao Qiufeng sitting still, Xu Hengliang urged again.
"money……"
Cao Qiufeng's eyes averted and she said one word after a while.
Xu Hengliang's heart thumped, and a bad premonition suddenly arose in his heart.
"Where did the money go?" Xu Hengliang asked hurriedly.
"money……"
Cao Qiufeng was unable to utter a word for a while.
Xu Ronghuan was so angry that he yelled at Xu Hengliang: "Junfeng doesn't need money to study? Weining doesn't need money to get rich? Mom and dad give it to Junfeng first, and Weining uses it!"
Xu Hengliang's mouth twitched, and he was a little dumbfounded. He asked: "So, you just spent the money on my wife's marriage?"
"Mom, did you and dad use the money I spent to marry my mother-in-law?"
"..."
Cao Qiufeng lowered his head and remained silent.
But the more silent he was, the more Xu Hengliang felt angry.
"Mom, how can you and dad do this? I am your son, but I am not?
How much of my ten taels are left? Give it to me now!"
After Xu Hengliang said this, he stretched out his hand toward Cao Qiufeng, and everyone present stared at Cao Qiufeng.
Thinking that there were still five taels left, Cao Qiufeng hesitated for a long time and said: "It's gone, it's all gone."
"!!!"
Xu Hengliang was dumbfounded and murmured: "All gone?"
Xu Hengliang seemed to be confirming with Cao Qiufeng again, his voice was weak, but he refused to let go of the last glimmer of hope.
The moment Cao Qiufeng looked into Xu Hengliang's eyes, she completely collapsed:
"Hengliang, mother is sorry for you, mother is sorry for you!!!"
Cao Qiufeng cried and hugged Xu Hengliang.
Xu Hengliang's limbs froze and his palms tightened, as if he was in a world of ice and snow!
He raised his head and glanced at Xu Xiangning, finally feeling the despair that Xu Xiangning felt when she was abandoned by her family.
It turns out that it was not only her who was abandoned by the family, but also him!
If he hadn't asked for money today, he probably wouldn't have known about it!
In the courtyard, someone whispered: "I'm just saying that Mr. Cao didn't find Matchmaker Liu to help Heng Liang get married. Otherwise, why didn't Matchmaker Liu help Heng Liang get married?
Hengliang is young, strong, healthy, and looks good.
That day, I asked Matchmaker Liu, but Matchmaker Liu said that no one asked her to propose marriage to Hengliang.
I thought Matchmaker Liu was lying, but it seems that Mrs. Cao really has no intention of marrying Hengliang."
Hearing this, many villagers were shocked and whispered: "Mr. Cao is so cruel? After all, he is also her son!"
Xu Hengliang stood there without speaking for a long time. Cao Qiufeng panicked and shouted softly: "Hengliang?"
But Xu Hengliang threw her hand away: "Don't call me, I'm not your son. Your precious son's name is Xu Ronghuan."
"!!!"
Cao Qiufeng was instantly panicked. She never expected that Xu Hengliang would be so decisive.
In the past, Hengliang would listen to her no matter what she said, but this time Hengliang was really angry!
"Hengliang, how can I talk to my mother?"
Xu Ronghuan roared.
Xu Hengliang looked at Xu Ronghuan coldly, as if looking at an enemy:
"Xu Ronghuan, my twelve taels are with my mother.
No matter how your father's funeral is organized, whether you want it to be a big one or a small one, I will contribute one-third, just like my sister.
How much should it cost? You go and get it from your mother!"
"What?"
Xu Ronghuan was stunned. He paid one-third and asked his mother to take the money?
But Mom has no money at all, doesn’t he have to pay for it himself? Xu Ronghuan’s pupils shrank sharply!
Tian Jiayu glared at him angrily: "Look at you, you insist on making dad's funeral a big deal, now it's okay, how can we get so much money?
Gilbert, we don't need you to calculate the burial site for my father, we can just find a place to bury him ourselves.
Could you please return a tael of silver?"
With that said, Tian Jiayu stretched out his hand towards Old Man Ji!
"!!!"
Is there anything else like this?
Are you kidding him?
Ji Hongpeng raised his eyes and looked at Tian Jiayu, his eyes showing anger!!
