After Mastering Fate, I Reshaped Life With My Son

Chapter 62 - Chapter 62: Knowledge

62  Knowledge

Liu Mu rolled his eyes at his wife helplessly. "Can you stop staring at her educational background? I think Song Yao is quite good. She even knows to bring Old Song over after buying the courtyard house. At least she's better than the two prodigals in our family who only know how to ask for money from us!"

As soon as these words were spoken, Liu Mu's wife was so angry that she grabbed his ear and scolded, "Can someone who has never studied compare to someone who has studied? Our son will be very promising in the future! Don't think that Song Yao is earning money now. When our son graduates in the future, you can just wait to move to the provincial capital to enjoy life!"

While the couple was talking, they saw a young man reeking of sweat and a young woman wearing a flowery shirt and a golden necklace pushing a Phoenix brand car into the courtyard. "Is this Song Yao's house?"

The couple looked at each other, especially Liu Mu's wife. When she smelled Sun Hao's scent, she covered her mouth and nose in disgust. "So what if it is? Which poor relative from the countryside came to seek refuge with Yao?"

Sun Hao scratched his head. "You've misunderstood. We're not…"

"What are you doing in my house?"

Song Xiao pushed open the courtyard door and held Wei's hand to look out. Wei was still holding a toy pistol in his hand. As soon as he saw Sun Hao, he spat water at him.

Sun Hao didn't care either. He went forward and grabbed Song Xiao's hand and asked, "Xiao, I heard from Aunt that you changed houses in the town? It's really quite imposing! By the way, you still haven't given half of the money for the chestnuts last time. Tell your sister to come out and settle the money."

When he heard the word chestnut, it always reminded Song Xiao of the broken chestnuts last time. He was instantly furious. "You actually have the cheek to come over and ask for money? Do you know that because of the lousy chestnuts you two bought, my sister and I spent the entire night picking them!"

"What do you mean? What's wrong with the chestnuts?"

Sun Hao could not react for a moment, but his wife, Wu Xia, could not take it anymore. She shouted at the top of her lungs in the courtyard, "Is this your attitude when talking to your elders? Let me tell you! Even your sister has to give me some face when she speaks! You don't want to pay? That's fine. At most, I'll make a fuss to the village committee! Let's see which of us has thicker skin!"

Hearing this, Song Xiao gritted his teeth in anger. He had never seen such a shameless sister-in-law like Wu Xia! He couldn't wait to chase this couple out immediately.

However, he was worried that if this matter really blew up, it would affect his sister's business. He clenched his fists and could not make up his mind for a long time.

"Xiao! Who's looking for me?"

Song Yao pushed open the door and saw her cousin's family standing outside. She knew why they were here. She called Song Xiao in and heard Wu Xia shout at the top of her voice, "Song Yao! You're finally out! Tell me, when are you going to pay us back the money you owe us?"

Song Yao sneered. "What money?"

"You still have the cheek to ask? We've been collecting chestnuts for you for so long! We're still short of half the money. Do as you see fit!" Wu Xia said.

Song Xiao immediately retorted, "What money do we lack from you? Why don't you take a look at what chestnut you're collecting!"

"Song Xiao!"

Song Yao stopped her brother again and went straight into the courtyard to throw the 200 catties of rotten chestnuts in front of the two of them. "Look for yourself!"

Sun Hao was dumbfounded. Weren't these the chestnuts he had sent to Song Yao a few days ago? There was nothing wrong with them.

Unexpectedly, as soon as he opened the bag, the air was filled with an unpleasant rotten smell. Did he send this pile of rotten chestnuts over?

He immediately grabbed Wu Xia and questioned, "You were the one who accepted the chestnuts these few days. Tell me what's going on!"

Wu Xia was also shocked. "It was fine when I took it in… Besides, Yao took in so many chestnuts. How would she know which bag was ours? She might not want to give us a salary…"

Upon hearing this, Sun Hao was even angrier. "But that bag belongs to our family!"

He pointed at Wu Xia and was furious. He did not expect that his good deal would almost be ruined by his wife!

"You have to have a conscience. Yao treats us so well. How could you do such a thing?"

Seeing that she couldn't quibble, Wu Xia was embarrassed. She lowered her head and said, "I'm just greedy and took some chestnuts with bad taste, right? But that's because I'm poor, right? On the other hand, you, Song Yao! You can earn a few hundred yuan every time you take chestnuts. You don't care about this little money, right? How can you be so petty!"

Hearing this, Song Yao felt that it was ridiculous. "In that case, I should thank you?"
