Chapter 70: I was blackmailed for sending something back to my parents' home
Su Zhaodi was the only kind and honest member of the Su family. Lu Manshu felt sorry for her being exploited by Su Jiandang, so she openly said that her sister had married into a wealthy family and had 500,000 yuan in pocket money every month.
My sister can't spend that much money, so she gives herself tens of thousands of yuan every month.
Su Zhaodi knew that Lu Manshu's money came so easily, so she didn't hesitate and took the envelope.
With this money, she can pay off the betrothal money that her husband's family had borrowed before, and she won't have to worry about their faces anymore.
Thinking of how good Lu Manshu was to her, Su Zhaodi had no way to repay her, so she decided to send her more local specialties after returning home so that she could give them to her sister and her mother.
Lu Manshu sent Su Zhaodi to the station, and they were about to part again. She might rarely return to her parents' home in the future, but she missed Lu Manshu and her two nephews very much, so she asked Lu Manshu to visit her husband's home when he had time to see her living environment.
Since Su Zhaodi got married, her family members have never visited her husband's family. Her husband's family members thought that her family members did not support her and bullied her. In addition, Su Jiandang asked for 18 yuan in betrothal gifts, so they looked down on her and scolded and beat her whenever they wanted.
"Sister, if your in-laws bully you, just tell them and I'll support you."
Su Zhaodi really hopes that her family will visit her. Since Lu Manshu said so, she promises to go back and pay off her debts. If her in-laws treat her badly again, she will no longer swallow her anger.
……
Su Jiandang was somehow forced to mop the floor that day. He had never done this kind of work before and thought he had encountered a ghost, so he went to find a fortune teller.
The fortune teller had never seen such a thing before. Since he couldn't solve it, he just made up an excuse.
The fortune teller knew that Su Jiandang forced his daughter-in-law to abort their sixth daughter and said that he was deeply sinful and had bad luck.
Su Jiandang was so frightened that he trembled and asked the fortune teller to help him solve the problem.
The fortune teller gave him a talisman and told him to carry it with him at all times. But in case this trick didn't work, he said it was valid for half a month and must be renewed on time after it expires.
Because the fortune teller was not sure about the matter, he did not dare to charge so much money.
Besides, Su Jiandang only came once every two weeks, so he would have many opportunities to extort money in the future, so he only charged Su Jiandang 20 yuan.
Su Jiandang felt satisfied that spending 20 yuan could keep himself safe, and he thanked the fortune teller for saving him.
After returning home, Su Jiandang no longer dared to be so arrogant and spent two weeks in peace.
He really thought the fortune teller was very capable and went to renew his subscription.
……
Su Zhaodi returned to her husband's home and gave the 100 yuan to her husband Chen Dayong to pay off his debts, and deposited the rest in the bank.
Su Zhaodi brought back so much money after just one visit to her parents' home. Chen Dayong's eyes lit up and he wanted to invite Su Zhaodi to visit her parents' home more often in the future.
Su Zhaodi said that this was the money her parents and two younger brothers pooled together to pay off her debts, and she would have to pay back her younger brothers and parents in the future.
Chen Dayong didn't believe her and suspected that this was the money she earned before marriage.
"I only saved 18 yuan before I married you. I used it all to make a yuan betrothal gift for you and gave it to my parents. How could I have any money left?"
"This is what you said, and there is no evidence. How can I believe you?"
"It's fine if you don't believe it." This was the first time Su Zhaodi spoke so harshly. She said that after paying off her debts, she would no longer swallow her anger, and she did it.
Chen Dayong stared at her with eyes wide open. This woman straightened her back and spoke louder after going back to her parents' home. If she had money on her, she would be even more confident. He must keep a close eye on her and not let her have any money on her.
Chen Dayong’s hometown is on the Loess Plateau, where there are many wild and precious Chinese medicinal materials.
Su Zhaodi said that she would send more local specialties to Lu Manshu and her family, so whenever she had time, she would go looking for wild astragalus, red dates, sea buckthorn, sour jujube and other specialties.
Many local people look for some specialty goods to sell at the market in exchange for living expenses.
In half a month, Su Zhaodi found 20 kilograms of astragalus, 5 kilograms of jujube kernels, and 20 kilograms of sea buckthorn fruits.
Her husband's family had red dates, so she picked 30 kilograms of them. After drying all the fruits of her labor, she packed them up and took them to the town to mail them to Lu Manshu.
It is not easy to go to the town. Su Zhaodi rode a small electric bike on the winding mountain road for more than an hour before reaching the town.
It took her nearly three hours to get home. Her husband's family thought she was taking the local specialties to sell on the street.
Old Mrs. Chen asked her son to ask Su Zhaodi for money.
"Where's the money?" Chen Dayong stretched out his hand for money.
"what money?"
"Don't play dumb and deaf. You have so much valuable stuff to sell, but you don't make a penny?" Chen Dayong became impatient and raised his voice.
"I didn't sell it. I sent it to my family."
Those astragalus are all wild and twice as expensive as cultivated ones.
Ten kilograms of dried wild astragalus will sell for at least 1000 yuan.
There are also sour jujube kernels, which are sold in the market for 500 to 1 yuan per catty.
She got five kilograms of dried jujube kernels, which are worth at least 2500 to 5000 yuan.
Including other things, the mountain products she took out were worth at least 5000 yuan.
Old Lady Chen pointed at Su Zhaodi and jumped up. "You spendthrift woman, you took our things and gave them to others without our consent. You have to compensate me."
"Mom, I found all those things in the mountains. I only took 30 kilograms of your red dates, and those red dates are not valuable."
"My red dates are not valuable, but the astragalus and jujube kernels are valuable."
"I found it on the mountain. I didn't take it from home."
"You married into our family, so what belongs to you belongs to us. If you take our things and give them to others, it's wrong for you."
Old Mrs. Chen usually gave a lot of local specialties to her relatives and friends. She gave things to others without Su Zhaodi's consent, and some of the things were found by Su Zhaodi in the mountains.
"Mom, you often give things to your relatives and friends."
"Before you married me, I often gave gifts to my relatives and friends. You have no right to control me."
"Mom, I've been married for ten years and have given you three grandchildren. Can't I send something back to my parents' home once?"
Old Mrs. Chen knew that Su Zhaodi went back to her parents' home and brought back some money, and she thought that her family must have become rich.
Your family is living a better life, but I am not. Is it too much for me to ask your family for some money?
"We are poor, and our family income mainly depends on these things. You gave thousands of dollars to others all at once. Have you ever considered our family? I don't care. You must ask your mother's family to give you thousands of dollars back. It's equivalent to your mother's family buying things from our family."
"Mom, you gave things to your relatives and friends, but I never saw you asking them for money."
"I have the final say at home. You have to ask them for the money back."
That's her family, how could they ask for money?
Su Zhaodi would never pay for things she found in the mountains by herself.
She took 30 kilograms of red dates from her husband's family. They were theirs. The red dates cost 5 yuan per kilogram, and she gave her mother-in-law 150 yuan at most.
Su Zhaodi took out 150 yuan from her pocket and stuffed it into Old Lady Chen's hand, "Mom, this 150 yuan is the money for the 30 kilograms of red dates. I give it to you."
"What about the money for other things?" Old Mrs. Chen didn't care about the money for 30 kilograms of red dates. What she wanted was the money for five kilograms of sour jujube kernels.
"I found those things in the mountains. Why should I give you money?"
Su Zhaodi, who used to be afraid to speak, now doesn't talk much and works hard all day long.
Old Mrs. Chen thought that her daughter still dared to talk back to her and wanted to teach her a lesson. However, she couldn't beat her, but her son could.
Old Mrs. Chen sat down on the ground and cried loudly, as if she had suffered a great injustice.
Chen Dayong rushed out of the cave and sprinted a hundred meters towards Su Zhaodi and Old Lady Chen.
Su Zhaodi thought he would help up Old Lady Chen who was sitting on the ground, but who knew he didn't, he came for her.
When he reached her, he kicked her to the ground.
