Chapter 84 Scolded
At this moment, Li Xiumei stopped crying. She had heard something.
"What woman? Why was Ye Xingguo arrested?"
Li Xiumei immediately rushed to Ye Laopo, her expression contorted.
Ye Laopo was also a little guilty. Regardless of the facts, her son had indeed been caught in bed.
"That, it was that cheap woman who did it. Xingguo definitely didn't mean to."
Li Xiumei grabbed Ye Laopo's collar and said fiercely.
"Explain it clearly to me, where was Ye Xingguo arrested?"
"You ill-mannered woman, how dare you hit your mother-in-law. What are you saying? My son was arrested and you don't think about saving him, but you want to hit me here."
Li Xiumei had never imagined that Ye Xingguo would betray her. Although he didn't love her, he had always been well-behaved for so many years. But now...
"Brother, go to the Public Security Bureau and find out why Ye Xingguo was arrested."
Li Xiumei's elder brother, Li Chenliang, quickly spoke up. They had already discussed it, afraid that his sister would soften her heart at this time.
"Sister, is it still necessary?"
"Yes, I want to make sure there's no possibility of turning back."
Li Chenliang sighed, and seeing Ye Laopo beside him, he had another thought.
"Aunt Ye, finding someone at the Public Security Bureau costs money. Getting Ye Xingguo out requires a large sum of money. You know my sister's family was robbed clean. How about this money matter..."
Ye Laopo immediately covered her pockets. She was reluctant to part with the money.
"Where do I have any money? The little money Xingguo gave me was all used to treat Shengge's illness."
The Li family understood what Li Chenliang meant and all spoke up.
"Old Mrs. Ye, three people in your Ye family are eating and drinking here, and I'm supporting them for your Ye family. What? The job was given to your Ye family back then, and now you still want my Li family to continue filling your Ye family's bottomless pit?"
Zhao Guihua stood up with her hands on her hips. Ye Tianlong and Ye Tianhu lowered their heads. They felt very ashamed, especially the way their cousins looked at them.
Ye Laopo was so scolded by the Li family that she couldn't lift her head, but she was not convinced in her heart. How could relatives not help each other when something happened? Thinking of her only support, she had to take out the twenty yuan she had just received from her pocket.
"I only have twenty yuan left."
"Tsk, are you begging for scraps? If I take twenty yuan to find someone, won't I be kicked out?"
Although Li Chenliang said this, he still took the twenty yuan. The Li family had never seen money and refused to accept it.
"Aunt Ye, think of another way. If not, sell Ye Xingguo's job, and we can save Ye Xingguo."
When Ye Laopo heard that the job was to be sold, she shook her head like a rattle drum.
"No, no, that's a livelihood for the whole family. If it's sold, everyone will starve. No, absolutely not."
Li Chenliang sneered, put the money in his pocket, and sat down again.
At this moment, Li Xiumei had also calmed down. She wanted to cooperate with her elder brother to get money from the old woman, otherwise, how would she and her son live in the future? And the job, it was originally hers and she had to get it back.
"Mom, money is an external object. We can't just watch Xingguo get into trouble, right? Even if the job is gone, we can still find a way, but if the person is gone, nothing is left!"
Ye Laopo was scolded out of her wits. A single person's combat power was not advantageous. She walked home in a daze, and without even eating, she threw herself onto the bed and cried.
She had already experienced what it was like to be without her son, but she had to keep the money she had for her old age. If her son was really sentenced, she would have money to support herself for a few years.
Ye Laopo thought all night and decided not to spend any more money. She would go to the Li family to make trouble every day, scold that cheap woman Li Xiumei, and force the Li family to help.
