Chapter 251: Xia Ru’s Money
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
Seeing that Li Jin’s expressions waver, Xia Ru doubled down on her persuasion. “Grandma, even though I’ll spend the money, if I can go to work, I’ll earn it back very quickly. By then, I’ll be handing over my monthly salary to you. Grandma, you’ll be waltzing your way to the bank!”
Hearing Xia Ru’s words, Li Jin was shaken.
Xia Ru had always had a lot of ideas. If she was given some money, she would really be able to settle this matter. It would be equivalent to spending a small amount of effort to obtain huge benefits.
Thinking of this, Li Jin felt comfortable. She had a feeling that she was about to make a lot of money real soon.
“Tell me, how much do you want?” Li Jin asked.
Xia Ru smiled. “Grandma, give me 200 yuan.”
“What?! 200 yuan? Xia Ru, are you crazy? I just asked Xia Wan to help me find a job, and you actually want to spend 200 yuan to buy her something?”
Xia Ru was afraid that Li Jin would not agree, so she said coquettishly, “C’mon, Grandma, it’s just for contingency. I definitely can’t spend that much. This money is just going through the motions in my hands.”
Hearing Xia Rut s words, Li Jin felt that they were acceptable and reluctantly gave Xia Ru 200 yuan.
As she watched Xia Ru leave, she realized that even though she knew that Xia Ru would be able to earn a lot in the future, she was still reluctant to help Xia Hai pay for his medical expenses.
Now, giving Xia Ru 200 yuan already made her heart ache, let alone 3,000.
Xia Ru took the money, took out her bag, and brought some clothes for herself before leaving in a hurry.
With her previous experience in the capital, she was now more confident in going on a long journey.
Xia Ru left, and Li Jin waited at home. As the sky turned dark, Xia Rut s side showed no sign of movement.
Xia Jiang and Xia He had already returned from work, but Xia Ru still hadn’t moved. Li Jin finally could not sit still.
She hurriedly gathered her family and asked, “Did you see Xia Ru today?”
When Song Yan heard that her daughter had disappeared, she hurriedly asked, “Mom, what’s going on? Hasn’t Ru been at home all day?”
Li Jin told her about Xia Ru’s previous plan and then said, “She went to look for
Xia Wan and hasn’t returned. Do you think something happened to her?”
Song Yan also started to worry. “Xia Wan is capable of sending Liu Shi to prison. She must be a ruthless person. Could she have sent Xia Ru to prison
Li Jin glared at her. “What nonsense are you talking about? Liu Shi went to prison because he robbed Xia Wan and the others of their clothes and stole that big shot’s watch. If it were up to me, Liu Shi wouldn’t be in prison now if not for that big shot. Do you think Xia Wan is that capable?”
Song Yan felt much more at ease after being yelled at by Li Jin. As long as her daughter was not sent to prison, everything else was fine.
Chen Lian, however, heard the key point and exclaimed, “Mother! You actually gave Xia Ru 200 yuan? That’s a huge amount! Our Xia He’s monthly salary is only this much! Could Xia Ru have taken the money to fool around?”
Song Yan was extremely unhappy when she heard this. “What nonsense are you talking about? As an aunt, don’t you know our Xia Ru’s personality? Let’s not talk about anything else. Xia Ru has given everything she has earned these few years to Mother. That adds up to a lot of money. Even if our Xia Ru spends all the 200 yuan, it’s still something within her boundaries.
“Look at your Xia Ye. How much savings has she added to the family? All these years of studying, which one of them didn’t spend their family’s money? Did she earn for her family? She’s the one who shouldn’t be spending a single cent.
“Look at Xia Ye. She bought new clothes now. Tsk, where did you get the money from?”
Seeing that Song Yan and Chen Lian were about to quarrel again, Li Jin smashed her walking stick on the ground. “Quiet! Quiet! Do you only know how to quarrel in the face of roadblocks? If my Xia family had daughters-in-law like you, what kind of future would there be? What kind of promising children would there be? Can I still expect you to support me in my old age? Ptui!”
Song Yan and Chen Lian paused, and the two of them immediately became silent, tails between their legs.
Li Jin had the final say, now that the money was in her hands.
Chen Lian looked at Li Jin with an aggrieved expression.. “Then, Mother, what do you think we should do now? Should we look for Xia Wan?”
