In the main room, Mrs. Zhao's roar was clearly heard by Gu Huanxi in the RV, not to mention the people at the door. Li Qiuhua shivered in fright, lowered his head and cursed indistinctly.

Xu Huaili habitually complained about him, "It's all you who wasted your time. Look, how angry have you made my mother? If you get sick later, will you pay for medicine?"

Xu Huaiyi raised his head and glanced at him.

Xu Huaili glared back angrily and urged impatiently, "What are you looking at? Come on, do you really want me to invite you?"

Xu Huaiyi took a deep breath and silently recited the words "daughter and wife" three times. Only then was he able to maintain his character as the original owner and did not turn his face and fight back. However, he turned around and locked the door, and then walked to the main room with his head sullenly.

Xu Huaili didn't move, a contemptuous smile appeared on his lips.

Li Qiuhua tugged on his sleeve, pointed at the copper lock, and whispered, "Why do you think he locked the door?"

Xu Huaili was not interested in knowing, "Whatever, the one inside won't live long anyway. Even if there is still a dowry, won't he still belong to this family when he dies? It's just one day earlier and one day later."

"That's true..." After muttering, Li Qiuhua pressed his ear against the door without giving up, but couldn't hear anything. He couldn't help but said, "Why is there no sound at all? It's so quiet that I feel panic... "

Xu Huaili said disapprovingly, "Xu Shi only has one breath left, what else can she say? Okay, leave her alone, go to the main room and listen quickly, we must not let the third child expose this matter easily." past……"

Hearing this, Li Qiuhua said in surprise, "Is it possible that you still think that the third child is sincere in what he did?"

Xu Huaili sneered, "You have forgotten the old saying, a biting dog never barks. The third child seems to be quite honest, but what he does is not honest. He just sells bracelets when he sells them. Why do you keep saying those things?" What? Now the whole village has spread that the second wife of the Xu family is unkind and forced her daughter-in-law to die. With such a reputation, every member of our family should stop going out to meet people, even the fifth child. Don’t think about taking the scholar exam again. He sees that his wife will not survive and wants to drag the whole family to bury her with her..."

Li Qiuhua took a breath, "No wonder the uncle came here after hearing the news. Third child, third child, does he really have such scheming and courage? Could it be that you are overthinking it?"

Xu Huaili stared at the main room with a heavy gaze, "Stop talking nonsense, and go as quickly as you are told."

Li Qiuhua shrank his neck and trotted to the main room.

At this moment, in the east room of the main room, it was like a meeting of three halls. Uncle Xu and Xu Maoshan were sitting on the kang, Mrs. Zhao and her daughter Xu Honglian were sitting cross-legged by the window, Xu Huairen was sitting on a bench, and Wang Suyun was standing. Behind him, Xu Huaiyi stood in the middle. In order not to make people feel that there was too much contrast in personality, he lowered his head and tried to look like a taciturn and honest coward.

Mrs. Zhao got angry when she saw his virtue. She scolded him for not sparing him any face, "Third brother, is your brain filled with mud? You can do all kinds of stupid things. Even if you grab some medicine, it will harm the whole family." If I had known you were such a trouble-making beast, I should have drowned you in a urine bucket when I gave birth to you..."

When she had almost finished scolding, Xu Maoshan coughed and interrupted displeasedly, "Okay, let's continue the scolding. Brother is here. If anything happens, he will naturally handle it. It's your turn to worry about it?"

Mrs. Zhao snorted and stopped unwillingly.

"Brother, look at this..." Xu Maoshan turned to look at his eldest brother Xu Maoyuan with a sad look on his face, "Oh, my family is unfortunate. I thought he was the most peaceful and honest person, but who would have thought that he could cause such trouble? Come on, it’s all because of my poor discipline, which makes my elder brother suffer, and I have to find a way to make things right for this little beast..."

The two sang in harmony. Xu Maoyuan frowned and asked Xu Huaiyi, "Huaiyi, what's going on? Why are people in the village talking about you selling Gu's last dowry?"

Xu Huaiyi thought that over the years, Xu Maoyuan's character was still honest and fair, so he nodded and said angrily, "It's a silver bracelet. That's all that's left of the dowry that my father-in-law gave my daughter-in-law. I originally kept it as pawn." I thought about it, but now..."

He paused, as if he was in pain and couldn't speak. After taking a few breaths, he choked up and said, "Doctor Jiao said that without taking medicine, my wife will definitely not be able to survive. I, how can I still stand by?" Do you want your wife to die? I can only use a silver bracelet to pay for the medicine, and I will survive these two days first."

Hearing this, Xu Maoyuan nodded subconsciously, "You are right to do this..."

Mrs. Zhao immediately quit, threw away the old patched clothes in her hand, lowered her face, raised her hand and pointed at Xu Huaiyi's face and cursed, "Idiot, your wife is such a precious thing, she only needs two taels of silver a pair." Medicine? If she wants to die, just die. These days, half a bag of grain can be exchanged for a yellow-flowered girl. It would be better for you to use a silver bracelet to pay off the debt and give her the medicine? Is she worthy? She is not afraid of eating it and not enjoying that blessing. Die faster, that little bitch, a chicken that doesn't lay eggs, how can she be a daughter-in-law? She is the enemy of our old Xu family, right? A silver bracelet, more than ten taels of silver, let her die like this Yes, ouch..."

She covered her heart and exaggeratedly cried out in pain, looking angry.

In the past, when Xu Huaiyi saw her like this, he would have been so frightened that he knelt down and begged for mercy and confessed. Mrs. Zhao also used this trick to keep his wife under control, and it never worked.

But this time...the expected scene did not appear, but it was time to show off their acting skills.

Xu Huaiyi stood up straight as if there were steel nails on his knees. Moreover, his head was no longer hanging down, and his body was no longer trembling. The expression on his face was even more rich, with tears of grievance in his pain, and tears in his eyes. It sparkles with a heart-wrenching stubbornness, and the stubbornness is mixed with a forbearing despair. In short, it's hard to put it into words.

Everyone in the room was stunned.

Wang Suyun was the first to come to his senses and secretly pushed his man.

Xu Huairen had no choice but to put on a straight face and said, "Third brother, what are you doing? You look so effeminate, you've made the same old habit, why don't you admit your mistake quickly?"

Xu Huaiyi asked with a look of sorrow and disbelief, "Brother, what do you think I did wrong? Should I have treated my wife for medical treatment or sold her a dowry? Do you even think that my wife is more valuable dead than alive?" good?"

Xu Huairen did not dare to respond to these words, and immediately laughed dryly and said, "I don't mean that. Of course, my sister-in-law is in good health. She can help our old Xu family flourish, but this is selling dowry..."

"If you don't sell the dowry, how can you have the money to buy medicine? I don't want to sell it, but I really can't help it..." Xu Huaiyi choked, covered his face, ashamed and self-blame, and confessed as if he was ashamed, "I'm sorry Father-in-law, my father-in-law was so kind to me when he was alive, and he was so kind to me. I also promised him that I would take good care of Huanxi, but I didn't do it..."
