C4 Taking Advantage of the Situation

Su Yunchuan's frightened heart finally calmed down a little when she got home from the casino. She had made such a mistake because she had no other way to save herself. Fortunately, the effect was good, and the Su family was able to escape from the tiger's mouth.

At the door of the house, yamen runner Wang was already waiting for Su Yunchuan. He was in his early thirties and was one of the top leaders in the district.

"Uncle Wang, our Su family really owes you a big favor this time! If it weren't for you, I really wouldn't know what to do!"

Su Tunan's eyes were red. These past two days, he had been unable to sleep without eating and drinking. He had lost seven or eight pounds of weight, and his body, which was not strong to begin with, looked very thin.

Yamen runner Wang let out a long sigh and looked at Su Yunchuan, "If you want to thank me, why don't you go and thank your sister? I only helped out a little on account of your father's past friendship. Yunchuan is a great talent."

"It's just that with this incident, I'm afraid her reputation in L City won't be good either. If you still have the heart, take your family somewhere else."

Su Tunan lowered his head, feeling even more guilty towards his sister. He had seen how those men talked about his sister, but...

Su Yunchuan saw his embarrassment and naturally took over the conversation: "No matter what, in the past, when my father was still alive, there was no lack of people who added flowers to embroidery. Now that the Su family is in decline, it is already not easy for Uncle Wang to help us in our time of need. How can we dare to force it? As for the move that Uncle Wang mentioned, we will consider it. "

After all, to the rest of the family, this place was a disgrace.

Seeing that the siblings were very determined, Yamen runner Wang shook his head and did not say anything more. He took out another two taels of silver and gave it to Su Yunchuan: "The two of you take this money first and go to see your mother. The dead are gone, so I hope she can take good care of herself."

Taking into account that the Su family was busy, yamen runner Wang paid the money and did not stay any longer.

When he pushed open the door, Su Mengchuang, who was five years old, rushed over like a cannonball, "Sister, did we win?"

Liu Mulan walked out of the house with the child in her arms. She leaned against the door with a cold expression. Su Tunan turned his head as if he had been stabbed by a needle, and hesitantly walked forward, "My wife, I won. You and your daughter are safe..."

Liu Mulan held back her tears and went into the house without saying a word. Not long after, there was a sobbing sound from inside the house.

"Hurry up and coax sister-in-law!" Su Yunchuan quickly pushed her big brother away, feeling a little uncomfortable in her heart.

When Mrs Su found out that Su Yunchuan had won the bet and that her sister-in-law and niece no longer needed to be sold, she couldn't help but shed dirty tears.

This family that had almost been broken welcomed a long-awaited joy.

That night, Su Yunchuan lay on the bed. Through the window, she could see the bright moonlight outside. She could not help but put on her clothes and stand in the courtyard.

Was this still the hometown in her memories? Where would she go in the future?

"Su Yunchuan! Come out!"

Early in the morning, there was an ear-piercing noise outside the door. Su Yunchuan frowned and opened her eyes. What was going on now?

"Cough cough, Aunt Cuihua, what are you doing now?"

Mrs Su couldn't stop coughing and went to open the door.

Outside the door stood a stout woman in a blue cotton dress. She had her hands on her hips, like a fat teapot, and the moment she opened her mouth, her voice shook the heavens. "Aunt of the Su family, I am here to collect a debt. A few days ago, your Taro borrowed ten taels of silver from me and said he was treating you. I only found out yesterday that he was gambling with money!"

"Even my own wife and children have made a bet, and I have come here today to get my ten taels of silver back! Hurry up and give it back to me!"

"This..." Mrs Su hesitated slightly. A few days ago, when she was sick, her son had indeed gone out to borrow a lot of money, but now that his family was poor, how could he pay them back?

A trace of pride flashed across Aunt Cuihua's eyes. She had long heard that the eldest son of the Su family had lost all his property. How could they pay him back now?

"One must be reasonable. The money in my house did not come from the flood. I left the ten taels of silver for my son to marry. Now that the money is gone, how can I marry my son?"

As she spoke, Aunt Cuihua's face was filled with smiles. Not caring if Mrs Su let her in or not, she squeezed through the crack in the door and casually took Mrs Su's arm.

"Big sister, it's not that I want to criticize you, but in the past, you were meticulously taken care of by yamen runner Su. You didn't know how hard the world was."

"Look at our two families - one lives at the end of the street and the other at the end of the street - my son and Yunchuan have always been childhood sweethearts. Since you can't pay up and Yunchuan's reputation is ruined, why don't we become in-laws? I don't want the money!"

"How can you say that? Aunt Cuihua, if you want money, I can work and slowly return it to you, but why do you have to insult my sister?" Before Mrs Su could speak, Su Tunan, who had heard the commotion, could not help but come out.

Who didn't know that Zhang Cuihua's only son was a fool? A man in his twenties would even urinate and poop all over the streets. Which good girl would be willing to marry him?

"What do you mean by that?" Cuihua's eyes widened as she shouted in a stern voice, "I have already given you enough face by letting my son marry your sister, but you didn't go and ask around. Right now, the whole city is talking about who your sister is, and Boss Tu has long been planning to send your sister to a brothel to be a courtesan."

"Who would marry a thousand-riding bitch? If I hadn't pitied your sister, I wouldn't have let my son marry her!"

" You! You! You! "Mrs Su had never heard such vulgarities in her life. For a moment, she was so angry that she was incoherent.

"What's wrong with me? Is there something wrong with what I said? "Go and ask," Zhang Cuihua shouted as she opened the gate of the Su family. I'm just asking, who would still be willing to marry Su Yunchuan? If my son is willing to marry her, then that means he thinks highly of her!"

"If you don't want to marry your daughter, then pay me back. Ten taels of silver, plus the interest, pay me back fifteen taels. If not, I will use your daughter as a mortgage! If you don't want to, I will report it to the court! I will show the government that there is no such thing as not paying back what you owe!"

Zhang Cuihua glared at Mrs Su with her cloudy eyes and pointed at her with her fat fingers, "Just watch your son go to jail!"

A beautiful figure walked out of the house. Her small face was handsome, and was even more eye-catching than the new green willow by the river.

Su Yunchuan held a basin of water in her hand, "Mother, move aside."

Mrs Su obediently took a few steps back, and Su Yunchuan poured a basin of cold water on her.

"You want to take advantage of a burning house? Why don't you take a look at yourself? If you want to report it to the authorities, go ahead. Don't come to my house and disturb my peace and quiet!"
