SAG -Chapter 114 My Sister Is Rich!

At eight o’clock in the evening, Liu Mao finally sobered up. He shook his head and found that he was only a little dizzy, without any headache.

Liu Mao saw a figure sitting by the bed, motionless, and was immediately startled. But he soon realized it was his wife.

“What are you sitting there for? You scared me,” Liu Mao said irritably, then turned on the light.

Very quickly, he noticed that Xiao Chunhua’s expression did not look good. She seemed to be angry with someone.

“Who provoked you this time?” Liu Mao felt a headache coming on when he saw her like this.

Xiao Chunhua said angrily, “Who else could it be? Of course it’s that daughter and son-in-law of yours. I really don’t know what they’re thinking. What, do they think our family hasn’t lost enough face already?”

Liu Mao drank some water, then said helplessly, “What happened now? Look how angry you are.”

“Heh, the good thing your son-in-law did…” Xiao Chunhua then told him about the cars with a mocking expression.

After Liu Mao heard it, he was stunned as well. He also subconsciously assumed that Zhang Sicheng and the others had rented the cars for the sake of face. In addition, Xiao Chunhua firmly said that Zhang Ran had hurried off to return the cars. Since Liu Mao’s mind was already foggy, he did not doubt it at all.

Although Liu Lu and Zhang Sicheng seemed to have changed a little this time, in Liu Mao and the others’ hearts, they all thought it was probably because of their clothes or something similar.

Besides, how could they not know their own daughter and son-in-law’s situation?

Although they rarely contacted each other, they still knew a thing or two.

“Sigh, let them do as they wish. I’ll go to Third Brother’s house first,” Liu Mao sighed. Although he also felt uncomfortable inside, he could endure it.

“Why are you going to Third Brother’s house so late?” Xiao Chunhua asked subconsciously.

“What else could it be? To borrow money. I might as well take advantage of the fact that I still have some alcohol in me and borrow the money first. Oh right, this year, let’s not ask Xiao Lu and the others to borrow money. Sigh.” After saying that, he sighed heavily again.

The reason he went to Third Brother’s house first was because among the brothers, Third Brother’s family was the wealthiest. He wanted to see how much he could borrow from him, then gather the rest from other people.

“I’ll go with you. Otherwise, you might fall asleep by the roadside halfway there.” Xiao Chunhua still felt sorry for her husband. She got up, helped him put on his clothes, and wrapped him in a thick coat.

…

When Liu Mao and his wife arrived at Third Brother’s house, they found that his family had only just started eating.

“Second Brother, come, come. Have you eaten? Sit down and eat a little,” Third Brother hurriedly stood up and offered them seats when he saw them arrive.

Liu Mao and his wife walked in. After exchanging some polite words, Liu Mao said, “Why are you eating so late?”

“It’s all because of this wretched girl. She slept until now. After lunch, she went to sleep and slept all the way until now. I really don’t know how she spends her days,” Third Brother’s wife said irritably, pointing at Liu Hui, who was eating nearby.

Liu Hui said, “You can’t blame me for that. I didn’t sleep at all last night.”

Third Brother knew that Liu Mao and his wife must have come over at this hour because something had happened, so he ate very quickly.

“Second Brother, did you come over so late because of something?” After pouring fresh tea, Third Brother asked.

Liu Mao felt somewhat embarrassed, but for the sake of his son, he still spoke up.

“Third Brother, are things convenient for you financially right now?”

As soon as these words came out, Third Brother knew why Liu Mao and his wife had come. After thinking for a moment, he said, “My finances are all right recently. Second Brother, how much do you need?”

“Uh, how much spare money do you have right now?” Liu Mao became even more embarrassed.

Third Brother asked in surprise, “Second Brother, did you run into some serious difficulty?”

That sounded like he wanted to borrow as much as Third Brother had.

Liu Mao sighed and said, “What else could it be? Isn’t it Xiaokai’s marriage? The girl’s family wants 280,000 yuan in betrothal money, plus a house and a car. Sigh.”

After saying this, he sighed again. In the past two days, he did not know how many times he had sighed.

At this moment, Xiao Chunhua could not help saying, “Tell me, what bad luck did our family run into? That dead girl Xiao Lu ran off with someone for nothing, and now she’s still making us lose face. Sigh.”

Third Brother also knew that Xiao Chunhua was talking about the cars, so he subconsciously nodded, but he quickly stopped himself.

However, Liu Hui, who was still eating nearby, heard them.

“Second Aunt, what do you mean by that?”

She had eaten a little after returning home and then gone to sleep, so she still did not know what had happened.

“Xiao Hui, you don’t know the situation. Your sister actually rented two cars to come back for the sake of face. Now the whole village is laughing at us. I don’t even know how I’m supposed to go out in the future.

“I’m telling you, don’t learn from your sister in the future. When choosing someone, you have to look carefully. Don’t be like your sister, like some fool…”

Xiao Chunhua was still nagging, but Liu Hui could not bear listening anymore.

“Second Aunt, did you misunderstand something? Those cars weren’t rented by my sister and the others.”

“Hm?”

Liu Mao, Xiao Chunhua, Third Brother, and the others all looked at her, not knowing what she meant.

Seeing everyone look at her, Liu Hui organized her words a little and said, “Dad, actually, I forgot to tell you. Right now, I’m working at my sister’s company.”

Third Brother was stunned when he heard this.

“What did you say? Didn’t you say you found a job at a foreign company? And isn’t Xiao Lu working at a hospital? Did you go to work at a hospital?”

Seeing that he had misunderstood, Liu Hui quickly explained, “No. How should I put this? Let me say it this way. The job I told you about last time was actually a scam. That job was fake, and they even cheated us out of twenty thousand yuan.”

As soon as she said this, her mother became nervous.

“What? Why didn’t you tell us? Are you all right?”

After being interrupted again and again, Liu Hui became a little anxious.

“Mom, can you let me finish? I’m fine.”

Then, ignoring everyone’s gazes, she directly explained what had happened to her. She also said that the place where she was working now had Liu Lu’s investment, and it was a one-million-yuan investment.

In other words, Liu Lu was now also her boss.

She also told them that Zhang Sicheng owned a gaming company. Liu Mao and the others listened until their eyes went blank.

They felt as if they were listening to some heavenly scripture. They understood every individual word, but once the words were strung together, they seemed unable to understand them.

How had two people who had previously been living bitter, difficult lives suddenly become bosses in the blink of an eye?

And they even had such good cars. According to Liu Hui, they also had a house, fully paid for, worth at least ten million.

“Xiao Hui, is what you said true? You’re not lying to your second aunt, are you?” Xiao Chunhua’s voice trembled slightly.

Liu Hui said with a very serious expression, “Of course it’s true. I saw all of this with my own eyes. Didn’t my sister tell you any of this?”

Only now did she feel somewhat puzzled. Logically speaking, since Zhang Sicheng had already driven the car over, that meant they had no intention of hiding anything. So how could Second Aunt and the others still not know?

Hearing Liu Hui’s words, Xiao Chunhua smiled somewhat bitterly.

No wonder she had felt that Liu Lu kept looking like she wanted to say something that afternoon.

This was also Xiao Chunhua’s own fault. If she had not been angry with Liu Lu over the cars at the time and ignored her, things would not have turned out like this.

As for Liu Mao, he had been directly drunk under the table by Zhang Ran and had only just woken up.
