Chapter 169 Why are you so unsatisfied?
"That Mr. Xie, he was arrested just to vent his anger on her!"

"Those people in the Yamen said that Mr. Xie is Miss Su's fiancé, so of course he will deliberately target me!"

"Mom, that Xie Shangshu was clearly Su Youyue's slave before. How did he become her fiancé and become an official in the blink of an eye?"

Lu Cheng said a lot in one breath, and suddenly felt weak again, but if these questions were not asked, he simply felt that he had died unjustly.

Then why did Xie Shangshu punish him for chasing Qin Yumei? He was clearly just venting his anger on Su Youyue!
Mrs. Lu has been busy making a living these days, but she has never heard about the betrothal. Her eyes widened for a moment: "What are you talking about, that little bitch is engaged again? Is there anyone willing to have her?"

Although she had lost face with Su Youyue, Mrs. Lu secretly felt happy when she thought that no one wanted Su Youyue and could not marry her.

But who would have thought that there would be someone willing to marry her?

Lu Cheng saw that his mother didn't know anything, so he had no choice but to say: "Yes, it is said that the marriage was granted by the emperor, and it was given to the Minister of Punishment."

Mrs. Lu was confused: "This little bitch is really lucky. After all this, there is still someone willing to marry her? No, then maybe Xie Shangshu doesn't want to marry her at all, but he is just forced to marry her!"

"No, mother, you don't know. I've seen him beside Su Youyue before. He protects her like a wolf protecting flesh. How could he be forced? Maybe it was him who asked for the marriage!" Lu Cheng argued road.

Although he still has complaints against Su Youyue now, he is no longer as prejudiced against Su Youyue as he was before with the entire Lu family.

After being disowned, he now understands the importance of power and money more and more. Although he complained about Su Youyue, he even more blamed his mother and eldest brother for driving this golden phoenix out of their house!
If not, Su Youyue would still give herself money as before!And Mr. Lu, who is also respected outside the country, will have a fiancée from an official lady in the future!
Now, it's all gone.

If mother hadn't still been here, he probably wouldn't have scolded Su Youyue, but his eldest brother.

What's so good about Yun Niang? She has no money, no status, no identity, and she's not as good looking as Su Youyue.

He really couldn't figure it out.

Lu Cheng and Yun Niang also complained. If she hadn't seduced his eldest brother, would he have broken off the engagement?

When Mrs. Lu heard what Lu Cheng said, her heart felt like a big stone.

Unexpectedly, Su Youyue, who was not wanted to be driven away by her family, was actually wanted by someone else, and she was still such a high-ranking official. From now on, she would be an official wife!
The more she thought about Su Youyue's life being better, the more uncomfortable she felt.

Su Youyue's life was good, which made her even more angry than her Lu family's life was not.

But she didn't stay angry for long.

After settling Lu Cheng, she hurriedly went to get medicine for her son, which cost her a lot of money.

If it weren't for the few taels of silver she stole from Yun Niang last time, she might not even be able to afford the medicine for her son!

Even so, she also broke a tael of silver into two halves and spent it carefully, and she was only willing to grab two packets of medicine first.

Unexpectedly, when she returned home from the pharmacy, she found her door open before she even entered. When she entered the backyard, she heard her son's screams.

"Brother Wang! Didn't you promise to give me the money before? Why did you go back on your promise?"

"Haha, give it to you? When did I say I would give it to you? It was obviously lent to you. Why, these IOUs were not signed by your own fingerprints?" came the man's rough voice.

After hearing this conversation, Mrs. Lu's expression suddenly changed, and she thought of something bad.

She was still hesitating, but the man named Brother Wang inside seemed to have had enough patience and stepped forward to grab Lu Cheng.Lu Cheng had just received fifty sticks. He couldn't withstand the touch. Brother Wang just touched him and he was immediately in pain. He screamed repeatedly: "I will pay back! I will pay back! If Brother Wang is tolerant for two days, I will definitely pay back!"

"Two days? I want it today. If you don't come back today, I will chop off your hands and your feet tomorrow!"

As he said that, the sound of drawing a knife sounded in the room.

Mrs. Lu's face turned pale with fright. She rushed in and saw four big men glaring at her son on the bed. The leader was holding a big knife in one hand and a dozen fingerprints on the paper in the other hand. .

"Hero, wait! Don't chop my son, I have money! I have money!"

As she said that, she handed over the three taels of silver that she had saved just now.

Brother Wang took one look at it and suddenly laughed strangely: "It's just a small amount of money, and it's a lot of money to spend! I tell you, your son owes 1000 taels of silver!"

"1000 taels?" Mrs. Lu took a breath and almost fainted.

Lu Cheng couldn't help shouting: "You're talking nonsense, I borrowed 800 taels!"

"Why, you also hang out in the casino, don't you know that the casino charges a profit for borrowing money?" Brother Wang sneered, "Get me the money quickly, otherwise I don't know where my knife will end up!"

"Haha, Brother Wang, be careful. What if you accidentally end up in his life? You can't let the Lu family send him to the palace, right?" The big man next to him joked.

Although Lu Cheng was lying with his butt upwards, it didn't stop him from tightening his crotch after hearing these words.

"Don't!" Mrs. Lu was so anxious that she wanted to pay off her son's debt immediately.

But, that was 1000 taels, not just one tael. How could she get the money to pay it back?
Seeing several big men looking at her, she suddenly felt more pressure and hesitated: "Several strong men, I, I don't have money in my hands now, but my eldest son has money, he has more than a dozen shops , as long as you are tolerant for one more day, I can pay back the 1000 taels tomorrow!"

Several strong men looked at each other tacitly, then cleared their throats: "Oh? Is your eldest son really that rich?"

Seeing her nodding her head, Brother Wang snorted coldly: "In that case, I will give you one last day of grace. Tomorrow, bring one thousand or one hundred taels of silver, otherwise, haha..."

Although he didn't finish speaking, he gestured with the sword.

It was getting late now, and the kerosene lamp was on in the room. The reflected light of the knife suddenly flashed across the eyes of Mrs. Lu and Lu Cheng.

Mrs. Lu was so frightened that she could only agree first.

After finally sending away the plague gods, she couldn't bear it anymore and yelled at her youngest son: "You are such a heartless and rebellious son, didn't you promise your mother that you would never gamble again?"

In the past, Mrs. Lu would have been reluctant to scold Lu Cheng.

But no matter how close the relationship is, it cannot withstand one of the parties committing suicide over and over again.

Madam Lu now even wants to hit her youngest son!

Why is he so unsatisfied!
