Chapter 1184: Greedy Heart

g:"After Master passed away, you disappeared. So you were hiding here all along."That old geezer, thought he could keep me captive for life. Even at the brink of death, he wanted to sacrifice me for h...Liansheng was originally organizing wrong questions from the morning reading class when Mr. Sun saw it. He thought the question set was very good and wanted to borrow it to give a small class for students in the class.

Ripple explained that the questions she is currently organizing are of a higher difficulty level. There is also a book at home with organized, regular-difficulty questions, which are more suitable for classmates in her class.

After seeking Ripples' opinion, Mr. Sun let her go home for a visit. As soon as she stepped out of the school gate, she saw her three sisters-in-law sneaking behind Mr. and Mrs. Xing.

She could guess what the three were thinking just by looking at their toes, so when they hesitated, she appeared behind them.

The three of them were also startled. After seeing that it was Ripples in her school uniform, they adjusted their expressions. Sister-in-law He Cuicui was pushed out.

"Little sister, what are you doing here Didn't you go to school"

My place is here. The teacher gave me leave to come back and get my workbook, are you guys here to visit Mom and Dad

After Ripple finished speaking, her gaze swept across the empty hands of the three people.

There was some awkwardness on the faces of the three. It was He Cuicui who, being quick-witted, broke the ice:

"We don't know where you and your parents live now, so we just came to look around. That's why we didn't bring anything."

"Alright, I'll take you there. It's the small courtyard just ahead. But our parents are both busy right now, so you can come lend a hand."

Ripples walked in front, leading the way, not trying to hide at all, it was pointless.

Three sisters-in-law looked at each other, then followed the ripples.

After the ripples opened the door, she saw her parents-in-law bustling about.

Old Mr. Xing was washing his cart, to make sure the cart was clean and sanitary, Old Mr. Xing would wash it every three or five days. Today he finished closing up early, so he was scrubbing the cart while Old Mrs. Xing was washing the sinks and vegetable basin.

"Father and Mother, your three sisters-in-law have come to the county to see you."

The old couple at the Xing family just looked at the three people who came empty-handed, didn't show any expression, just nodded, and then continued with their own work.

Ripples went to her room to get her homework book, and after greeting her parents, she left.

He Cuicui saw that the elderly couple wasn't very enthusiastic, and she knew they weren't welcome. She secretly resented it. If she had come with her own husband, things would have been different. But now that they were already in the courtyard, she could only say a few awkward words as an excuse before leaving.

The elderly couple's situation, they want to go back and tell their husbands.

After ripples came back home from school that evening, the three of them ate dinner before finally discussing the matter of the three sisters-in-law visiting.

I wonder what they'll tell their son when they get back, won't they just start blowing smoke up his ears again

Xíng's mother said worriedly,

"Hmph! Since we've already split up, they should just take care of their own homes. I'm already being generous by not asking them for retirement money after the divorce."

Old Man Xing snorted coldly and said, since the three sons secretly supported their own daughters-in-law in making a fuss about dividing the family property, he had been displeased with his three sons.

A grown man wanting to split the family can just speak up himself. He's not the head of a feudal household, dictating that no one is allowed to split.

But the three sons were standing behind their daughter-in-law, egging her on to cause a scene in front of him. He wasn't happy about this; he hadn't raised his children like that. It seemed like all three of them had gone astray. So when his youngest sister suggested they not farm and move to the county, he was somewhat tempted.

Moreover, the daughter has a plan in mind, and she's not just talking empty talk. Especially now that her breakfast stall is making money, it's much easier than farming. So, she's really confident now, even if she doesn't rely on her three sons to support her retirement, she can earn enough money for herself and her husband.

The ripples then took the opportunity to apply eye drops:

"Mom and Dad, when I came back, I saw them sneaking around behind you. So I didn't follow them. As a result, I overheard the three of them talking about how your breakfast stall is so profitable. They even discussed going back to tell your brothers. I couldn't stand it anymore, so I stepped forward and interrupted them."

"Hmph! A dog can't change its nature, it always craves what belongs to others."

Xing's mother immediately became unwilling.

This is the hard-earned money they made together, and the capital was also from their youngest daughter's compensation. This money doesn't belong to the three sons yet.

"We won't be able to make much money for long. After your younger sister finishes her exams, we'll work for another two months and then return to the village."

Old Mr. Xing had already made up his mind and wouldn't go to college with his daughter.

Even the ripples could hear it, and immediately coquettishly said:

"Dad, you can rest assured that I'll go to school alone"

"What are you worried about You can apply to a school that's close to home, and we can still visit you often."

Old Man Xing said.

"Dad, aren't you afraid that after you leave, the three older brothers will pin me down and suck my blood"

"Dare they"

"What are they afraid of They are the ones who caused the family to split. They also remember the money for raising their sister's health, and now that their parents have made some money from small business, they cling to you and mother." Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!

Now I don't know how much they dislike me, they must think I'm spending their hard-earned money, and that the money should rightfully belong to them.

A sneer played at the corners of her lips.

In her previous life, the original character had an unhappy existence. When she returned home to confide in her three brothers about her woes, they only told her to endure it and assured her that everything would be fine once she had a child. The protagonist complied and gave birth to a child. However, she ultimately died as a consequence of childbirth.

The three of them didn't even go to the hospital, which allowed Li Pozi to exploit the situation. She was unwilling to spend money on a cesarean section for her original body and forced her to give birth. In the end, she couldn't survive it. Afterward, they just burned a few paper offerings, treating her like a stranger.

Lian Yi was willing to raise the elderly couple because they always had a daughter in their hearts, whether it was through marriage with the Li family or after their daughter's death. They would rather suffer themselves and help raise Li Haoxian. As parents, they were qualified and did their best.

But this selfish, greedy brother of hers would never let them get even a single advantage.

The elderly couple looked at each other and then turned to their daughter and said:

"Yo mei, which school are you preparing to take the entrance exam for"

"I am preparing to take the entrance exam for National Defense University."

Ripple spoke solemnly.

"Can I get in Where is the school located Is it far"

Mr. Xing asked.

"The school is in HUN province, CS city, which is across a province from us."

Ripple explained.

"So far"

Both the elderly couple were startled. In their lifetime, they had only been as far as the city and had never left the province.

"Yes! That school is good, with guaranteed jobs after graduation. So you guys should come with me. I'll feel at ease leaving you here, and you must be worried about me too."

Ripples said cheekily.

When Xing's mother heard that her youngest daughter was going to such a distant place to study, she became somewhat anxious and even more uneasy.

"Let's talk about this when you get into that university you want to go to."

Old Man Xing didn't directly refuse this time, he just said to wait until after passing the exam.

Ripple knew that as long as Old Xing put his mind to it, the rest would be easy.

On the other side, in Fuyuan Village, the three couples from the Xing family were telling their husbands about what they had seen in the county. They particularly emphasized how well the breakfast stall was doing.

"Daya, do you think we could also set up a stall and make money"

He Cuicui asked greedily.fied face, just like a woman in love.When Laura heard Galia's words, her heart sank to the bottom of her stomach. Just as she was about to speak, she saw a few people walking slowly into the banquet h...
