Liu Hua knew that her sister-in-law was lying to cover the fact that the money had been spent. She nodded her head and said, "Since my sister-in-law said this, I will naturally believe you. But, I want that money."

Hearing this, Mother Liu looked at her daughter-in-law and said, "Daughter-in-law, you gave the money to Ah Hua, and we can end this matter here. If you dare to use others to make deals again, you can go back to your parents' house. The Liu family cannot tolerate people with bad character."

"Mother, I understand." Shi Qiwan said with her head lowered.

As soon as she finished speaking, Mother Liu walked towards her room without even looking at her.

Liu Hua stood in front of her and said, "Sister-in-law, you go get the money first before my brother and father come back from the foothills. I believe you don't want them to know what just happened, right?"

Although she hated her deeply in her heart, Shi Qiwan could only nod and went to get the money.

When she was alone, the corner of Liu Hua's lips were lifted as she went to the kitchen to prepare lunch. Her father and brother would go collect firewood in the foothills every three days.

After working in the farm and picking firewood, they must be hungry. So, lunch should be ready when they return. Liu Hua lit the fire and kneaded the dough for the meat buns while boiling a pot of water.

Not long after, Shi Qiwan entered the kitchen, put a few banknotes on the dining table, and said, "Ah Hua, this is all the money I have. Can the matter end here?"

Liu Hua took a look at the money and saw that it was only thirteen yuan. Knowing that it was impossible for her stingy sister-in-law to give her all the money, she didn't say anything. After all, her purpose was just to teach her a lesson, not to get all of her money.

After a while, she said, "Sister-in-law, I have accepted your apology and money. But to end this matter, I have one condition."

Shi Qiwan clenched her fists and asked, "What is your condition?"

"Even if I marry Ah Li and no longer live here, you can't force Ah Yan to drop out of school. You must treat her like you treated Ah Ran. If I hear that you abuse her again in the future, you can't blame me for being ruthless." Liu Hua said.

Then she turned to look at Shi Qiwan and said with a smile, "After all, you know that I have never been a good person and have a bad temper. So, sister-in-law, you must keep your promise. Otherwise, I might do something you wouldn't want to even imagine."

When Shi Qiwan saw her smile, she felt chills running down her spine. Recalling what the villagers had said about what happened in the Lu family two days ago, she nodded and smiled stiffly, "Ah Hua, you are joking. How could I abuse my own daughter?"

Liu Hua looked at her for a while and said nothing. In the long silence, Shi Qiwan felt her throat tightening and she looked at her sister-in-law nervously.

It wasn't until the water boiled that Liu Hua said, "It's good as long as my sister-in-law knows what she is doing."

Shi Qiwan breathed a sigh of relief when she heard her words. She wiped the sweat from her forehead and said, "Then you get busy. I'm going to pick up Ah Ran from my mother's place."

After saying that, she turned around and left quickly.

Normally, the children should be taken care of by Liu Hua because she does not work on the farm. But because her sister-in-law didn't want Liu Qingran to get close to her, he was entrusted to the Shi family when the Liu family was working in the field. Therefore, the Shi family often use this as an excuse to ask Shi Qiwan for money.

When the dough was ready, Liu Hua washed her hands, took the money, and put it in her pocket. Although the money is not much, it is enough to buy some books and stationery for her niece, Liu Fuyan.

Meanwhile in the county hospital, Han Yuheng was sitting in the waiting room and Han Liling was in the operating room. It had been several hours since she was wheeled into the operating room, and the operation wasn't over yet.

Sitting alone on a long bench, he recalled the time when his wife gave birth to their daughter. At that time, although he did not love his wife, they had a good relationship and respected each other. When he saw his newborn daughter crying until her small body turned red, his heart was filled with joy.

At that time, he clearly loved his daughter and wanted to live a good life with his wife and build his own little family. He didn't know what went wrong and what happened to him or their family. He didn't even know when he started to hate his wife and his daughter.

Now that he thinks about it, his wife and daughter both treat him very well. Not only did they listen to him, they took good care of him, his brother, and the house.

Han Yuheng rubbed his forehead and remembered the time when he found his wife fainted on the roadside near the warehouse. Part of his consciousness told him that his wife knew about his extramarital affair and might even have witnessed what he did with Sheng Xiaohong.

The moment the thought crossed his mind, his heart clenched with worry and unfamiliar feelings. When he returned home carrying his wife on his back, his hands were shaking with fear. But he didn't know what he was afraid of.

Opening his eyes, he reached out and touched his rapidly beating heart. He should be relieved if his wife found out about his affair. In this way, she would no longer pester him, and he would no longer have to look at his withered and yellow-faced wife.

But why did he hate the idea of ​​her leaving him? Is it because he is afraid that his son will be taken away by her?
