After hearing Zhu Hongping's words, Li Li couldn't help but feel a sudden shock in her heart.
Could it be that the misfortune of the mother's family was really caused by her husband?
Seeing the empty space on the waistband of Zhu Hongping's trousers, Li Li suddenly thought of something, "Mom, where is your sachet?"
After being reminded like this, Zhu Hongping remembered that she left in a hurry yesterday and left the sachet on her daughter's bedside.
He lost his money without bringing the sachet. Now, Zhu Hongping was even more convinced that he had been tricked by his son-in-law Ling Jiang.
"Li, we can't go on like this. If we are defeated by the evil star of our son-in-law, we don't know how much misfortune we will suffer."
Li Li couldn't help but retort: "If you don't want to continue to be suppressed, then you can only divorce."
When it comes to divorce, Zhu Hongping is silent again.
Although she looked down upon Ling Jiang, to be honest, Ling Jiang was not bad at all as a son-in-law.
The son failed to live up to his expectations and was constantly causing trouble. If it weren't for the help of his son-in-law, Ling Jiang, the family would not know what it would be like.
If it were anyone else, they might not be able to do what Ling Jiang did.
After thinking about it, Zhu Hongping came up with an idea, "Li, I know a very profound master. How about I go to him to help resolve it?"
"It costs money to invite a master. Where does the money come from?"
Zhu Hongping's face showed a bit of calculation, "How about we go to borrow some from the in-laws? Anyway, he has plenty of money, so we won't borrow more, just borrow a hundred yuan. He won't even borrow this, right?"
They just gave me 500 in hush money yesterday, and today they came to ask for money again, knowing the consequences.
How could they afford to offend someone like Yun Shixian?
Li Li directly rejected Zhu Hongping's proposal, "If you want to go, you can go by yourself. My feet hurt and I don't want to go out."
Zhu Hongping didn't dare to go alone, so he quickly flattered him and said, "Then wait for two days, and we will go after your feet are healed."

Yunyao's life has not been easy these two days.
She was put under house arrest by Yun Shixian, and the door was not opened. What made her even more uneasy was that Yun Shixian seemed not to let her go back to school, but was planning to marry her to the Bai family as soon as possible.
She couldn't sit still and wait for death, she had to save herself.
In her new life, her goal is to go to college, marry a son of a famous family, become a lady that everyone admires, and live a life of a master, instead of becoming a reproductive tool for a fool!
While Yunyao was racking her brains to think of a way to get out of trouble, the Bai family took the initiative to find Yun Shixian.
The Bai family came to visit not to urge the marriage, but to cancel the engagement.
Although Yun Shixian spent money and energy and tried his best to suppress the news and reports about Yun Yao's pregnancy out of wedlock, the Yun family's connections and strength were limited, and they were far from being able to cover the sky with one hand in Jiang City.
.
Coupled with the secret operation of Zeng's family, Yunyao's unmarried and childless story not only appeared in major newspapers and magazines, but also spread throughout Jiang City's upper class circles.
The wives of each family laughed at the fact that the eldest daughter of the Yun family came back from the countryside and was not able to make a name for herself on the stage. At the same time, they ordered their children not to associate with Yun Yao, lest they be led astray.
Compared with Yun Mo's bad reputation in the past, Yun Yao's reputation is now even more infamous, and she has become a bad woman who is despised by everyone for not knowing her manners and being immoral.
The Bai family came to break off the engagement precisely because they heard these rumors.
Yun Shixian was initially very satisfied with the Bai family's marriage, after all, it was profitable. However, when his youngest daughter got leukemia, he hesitated again and postponed the wedding for an excuse to see if he could find a better marriage partner later.
It's a pity that man's calculation is not as good as God's calculation.
Yunyao committed suicide, ruined her reputation, and offended the Zeng family. Yun Shixian had to change her mind and wanted to advance the wedding date with the Bai family, but the Bai family would not be happy.
Although Yun Shixian tried his best to explain and guarantee that the eldest daughter was not involved with a man or pregnant out of wedlock, the Bai family still insisted on breaking off the engagement.
Marry a virtuous wife. The Bai family is also a reputable family in Jiangnan. They are unwilling to marry their son to a woman with a bad reputation and no good manners.
No matter how unwilling Yun Shixian was, he could only agree to break off the engagement.
He had concerns at the beginning and did not sign a marriage contract with the Bai family. The two parties only agreed verbally. Even if he did not agree to break off the engagement, there was nothing the Bai family could do.
Now that the Bai family has come to visit him in person, it has given him enough face. It is better to get together and relax than to make enemies.
In the evening, Yunyao learned from Yun Shixian that the Bai family had broken off the engagement.
Yunyao has been unwilling to marry a fool named Bai from the beginning. This is undoubtedly great news for her. But facing Yun Shixian's gloomy face, she can only try her best to hide her true feelings and work hard.
Act like you feel guilty and remorseful.
"Dad, I'm sorry. It's all my fault. I'm willing to accept any punishment."
Yunyao thought she was good at acting, but as smart as Yun Shixian, how could she not see her true thoughts?
"I have asked Secretary Tong to go through the withdrawal procedures. From now on, you will stay at home and you are not allowed to go anywhere without my permission."
Yunyao's face changed drastically.
If she drops out of school now, wouldn't it mean that she won't be able to take the college entrance examination next year and won't get a high school diploma? Her future diploma will only be for junior high school.
Now the business of the clothing store is on the right track, and the daily revenue is not low. If she doesn't keep an eye on it from time to time, there is no chance that the people in the store will do anything.
She can't be stuck at home.
"Dad, I know I was wrong. Please don't let me drop out of school. I can make up for my mistakes and contribute my strength to this family."
Now, Yunyao no longer hides the fact that she opens a clothing store.
When Yun Shixian looked through the books, he saw that Yunyao's clothing store had made a profit of four to five thousand in just one month. He didn't show it on his face, but he couldn't help being surprised and excited in his heart.
For a successful businessman like him, earning several thousand yuan a month is nothing.
He was delighted that his eldest daughter actually had such ability and courage to run a small clothing store in a decent way.
If such a smart and capable daughter is properly nurtured, the benefits she can bring to the family in the future will be far greater than a marriage with the Bai family.
After closing the ledger, Yun Shixian already had a decision in his mind.
"Xiaoyao, it is not suitable for you to stay in Jiang City now. I will contact the school in the provincial capital and the clothing store for you. I will find reliable people to help you look after you. After you go to the provincial capital, you can go to school with peace of mind.
Don’t worry about anything, you must pass the college entrance examination next year and get the required score.”
Yunyao knew very well that once the clothing store was handed over, it would never be returned to her hands.
But she had no other choice.
Once Yun Shixian gave up completely, she couldn't imagine the consequences waiting for her.
"Dad, I listen to you."
Yun Yao's obedience and obedience made Yun Shixian's mood lighten up, and his attitude became a bit more pleasant, "You can go out, and try to go out as little as possible if you have nothing to do. There is so much gossip outside now, and it is not good for you to show your face."
