"My daughter, I'll see who dares to take her away!"
"Pandi, you have to make things clear to your mother today. What if I agree to let you go to school, and then you don't come back after studying?"
"Chen, don't think I don't know what you little scoundrel are planning in your head. You're just looking at my daughter because she's pretty, and you really think you can be a rich landowner and keep a wife outside with a little money?"
"Even a rich landowner marrying a second wife needs a bride price."
"Unless you give me a thousand yuan and Pandi writes an IOU, promising to marry according to my arrangements after she finishes her studies. If she comes back, I'll return the money to you. If she doesn't come back, this money will be considered compensation."
Just as Chen Yang was about to take Shen Pandi to the hospital to treat her wound and get a tetanus shot, Luo Yuzhen blocked the door.
She couldn't let Chen Yang take Pandi away so easily. If she did, where would she find her!
Listening to her words, Shen Pandi trembled with anger.
She couldn't imagine how a mother could weave such malicious thoughts about her own daughter. She was born to Luo Yuzhen, but was she guilty?
Why was she treated like this?
Chen Yang, scared, quickly held Shen Pandi's hand tightly. The old village secretary also quickly picked up the knife and held it. He was afraid of an accident no matter who held the knife now!
"Luo Yuzhen, this is the last time I consider you my mother."
"If you want my life, I'll give it to you."
"But you are not allowed to insult Teacher Chen. My life is cheap, Shen Pandi. Do you really think you gave birth to a precious daughter? A thousand yuan, why don't you go rob a bank!"
Shen Pandi bit her lip tightly, her teeth biting through her lip, causing blood to flow.
This time, she was truly and completely disillusioned with this family, with her mother Luo Yuzhen.
In Luo Yuzhen's eyes, she was never her daughter from beginning to end, not even a person. At best, she was a commodity to be exchanged for money at any time for her precious son!
"You dead girl, I think you're really infatuated with this pretty boy. A rusticated educated youth, and a live-in son-in-law at that, how could he possibly deserve you to throw money at him for free."
"It's useless even if the King of Heaven comes today. No matter how much you talk, without a thousand yuan, whoever wants to leave through this door will have to step over my dead body."
Luo Yuzhen spat a mouthful of saliva. Looking at her hysterical appearance, Chen Yang could no longer suppress his anger.
If he didn't make a clean break with this vicious woman for Pandi today, she would always pester her and force her, making it impossible for her to live a good life.
"Luo Yuzhen, I didn't want to go too far before, out of consideration for our village, but I still underestimated your shamelessness."
"You want money? I'm telling you clearly and unequivocally today, you won't get a single cent from me."
"The two hundred yuan you stole from Pandi were all paid to Pandi by me, one by one. I have the account book. Old village secretary, please invite the public security bureau."
"Stealing over two hundred yuan, I'd like to see if the public security bureau can arrest this woman and send her to jail. And her unborn son. Don't you cherish your son the most? I'd like to see who would dare to marry their daughter to a son who will go to jail before he's even born."
Chen Yang sneered. Since Luo Yuzhen wanted to play the rogue, let's see who had better tactics.
"You're talking nonsense, that money is a filial offering from my daughter to me!"
"Don't try to scare me, mother and daughter's money is naturally given to the mother, the public security bureau can't arrest me!"
Hearing Chen Yang's words, Luo Yuzhen immediately panicked. If she were really arrested and sent to prison, her son would be ruined.
"That's my money, I didn't agree to give it to you, you stole it yourself."
At this moment, looking at the flustered Luo Yuzhen, Shen Pandi's eyes no longer held any emotion. She said to Luo Yuzhen in a cold voice.
"Pandi, you can't treat your mother like this, you can't."
"If you do this, mother will die, and your brother will die too. Don't believe this pretty boy's nonsense, he's here to harm you, to harm our family!"
"I am your mother, you can't treat me like this!"
Now Luo Yuzhen was truly panicked. She didn't want to go to jail, and she absolutely couldn't go to jail with her unborn son.
"You don't deserve to be my mother, I don't have a mother like you."
Shen Pandi glanced coldly at Luo Yuzhen, who had knelt on the ground in fear. At this moment, she was utterly disillusioned with this family.
Before, she still cared about her father. She remembered that when her mother beat her and her sister, only her father would secretly steal food from the kitchen to feed them.
She had long given up any hope for this mother. From now on, she only had her father and her sister, no mother!
"Pandi, you can't treat me like this, I'm your mother, you were born by me, if you do this, you'll be struck by lightning and die a terrible death!"
Hearing Shen Pandi's words, Luo Yuzhen's face, filled with fear, gradually turned into venom, even hatred.
She hated why she hadn't taken the money from that man in Qianmen Village earlier and sold off this unprofitable burden.
Now that she had grown strong, she was treating her like this!
"Luo Yuzhen, you don't deserve to be a mother."
"Now, I'll give you two choices. First, we'll call the public security and have them arrest you. Second, return the money to Pandi, and Pandi will completely sever ties with you."
"Two choices, pick one."
Chen Yang pointed at Luo Yuzhen's nose. The more benevolent you are to people like this, the more shameless they become.
"Chen, you really want to force me to death, don't you."
"If you dare to take my money, I'll smash my head against your door today. Let's see if there's any law in this world, and if murder requires a life."
As soon as she heard Chen Yang asking for money, Luo Yuzhen immediately went mad.
She didn't look like a pregnant woman at all, but more like a mad dog.
"Then let's sever ties. Consider these two hundred yuan as repayment for your birth. From now on, we owe each other nothing."
Shen Pandi looked at Luo Yuzhen. She never expected to get the money back from Luo Yuzhen. Money that had fallen into her hands would never be recovered unless she died.
Besides, not all the money was earned by her. Her father also caught fish. She didn't want any relationship with this woman anymore. The money she touched felt dirty.
"You cheap whore, throwing money away for free, you just wait to be played with and abandoned by this pretty boy."
"Get out, get out, consider I never gave birth to you, you unprofitable burden. You can't take a single cent from me, that's money for my son, I won't give a cent to you."
Luo Yuzhen shrieked hysterically, but she no longer blocked the door.
Chen Yang didn't insist further. Forcing her to completely sever ties with Shen Pandi was enough. The money could be considered fed to the dogs!
If she were pushed too far and a life were lost, it would not be worth the gain.
Mainly, if this matter were reported to the police, it would involve the mother-daughter relationship, and the public security bureau might not arrest Luo Yuzhen. In most cases, it would be mediated. Now that Shen Pandi had completely broken off relations with Luo Yuzhen, it could be considered a complete change in her fate.
From now on, Shen Pandi was free!
