Chapter 40: 40

The Male Lead’s Wife in the ’80s Chapter 40 – Get the Money Back From Gu Chunmei!

To my fellow Americans, Happy Fourth of July!

“But Man-er……”

“Dad, it’s settled. If my life doesn’t get better after two years, I will divorce Chi Yunchen! I will leave him completely!” Su Man-er firmly interrupted Su Mingzhe.

Seeing Su Man-er like this, Su Mingzhe and his sons knew that no amount of persuasion would be effective.

Man-er was obviously trapped. If they continued to persuade her, they feared that it would only make everyone unhappy.

With a helpless sigh, Su Mingzhe lowered his eyes, his face filled with dejection and sorrow.

He thought he could bring his daughter home today, but he didn’t expect his plan to fall through.

Yet Grandma Chi was very happy.

A smile appeared on Grandma Chi’s weathered face, and she gratefully looked at Su Man-er.

Man-er was a good child. It was really lucky for their Chi Yunchen to marry such a good person.

Chi Yunbo and Chi Jiayue were equally happy.

Chi Jiayue excitedly ran into the main room, rushed to Su Man-er, hugged Su Man-er’s arm, and said, “Third Aunt, this is wonderful. In the end, you don’t have to leave. We’ll still be a family in the future.”

Looking at Xiao Jiayue’s excited expression, Su Man-er reached out and pinched his thin, little face. “Yes, we’ll always be a family.”

“Yes!” Xiao Jiayue seriously nodded and hugged Su Man-er’s arm tighter. “Once a family, always a family!”

Su Mingzhe and his sons who were watching, “…”

The Chi family was really amazing. Even the children would flatter Man-er. No wonder why Man-er wanted to stay. Seeing their pampered Man-er stay, they felt distressed the whole time.

“Right, Dad. Didn’t you say you wanted to take back the money from Aunt?” Fearing that Su Mingzhe and her brothers would continue to persuade her to return, Su Man-er quickly changed the subject and directed the attention toward Gu Chunmei.

Remembering the money Gu Chunmei had taken away, Su Mingzhe and his sons instantly turned pale.

Su Mingzhe lowered his voice and said, “Yes, we have to get back that huge sum of money from her. Don’t worry, Man-er. I’ll return the bride price money that the Chi family gave to you, not a cent less. It was originally yours. You should use it.”

With that money, it would surely make Man-er’s life better. At least she could eat meat for a while, right?

“Dad, look at what you said. You raised me. It’s only right if I give you the bride price. When you get the money, you can take it. Don’t give it to me.” Although Su Man-er liked money, no matter what was said, her father raised her. So no matter what was said, the bride price money should also be given to her father, and she should repay her father.

“Child, it’s natural for me to raise you. If parents don’t raise their children, why should they give birth to them?”

“Dad…”

“Besides, I have money. When I visited City C with your brothers this time, I made a lot of money.” Su Mingzhe smiled. He was quite proud of the money he made on the trip. But he was more proud of his daughter who loved him.

His daughter wanted to give the bride price to him, representing a daughter’s respect for her parents. He was very moved because of his respectful child.

“Ok, we won’t discuss this anymore. After we get the money, it’s all yours. Now let’s go to your aunt’s house and have a look.” Su Mingzhe got up from his chair and strode out the door.

Su Man-er’s eyes moved slightly. She said “wait for me in the yard” and ran back to her room.

She had also planned to get the money back from Gu Chunmei. In order to get the money back, she arranged something last night.

Since they were going to the Qiao family to get the money back, she naturally had to take her item with her.

Su Mingzhe amazedly glanced at his daughter. What was Su Man-er doing rushing to her room?

Su Junheng and Su Ruize had also made preparations.

Su Junheng quickly left the yard and hurried to the village entrance. At the village entrance, there stood over ten tall, burly men. Su Ruize and Su Junheng had recruited all these men.

Now at Gu Chunmei’s home.

Qiao Xinxin suddenly hurried into the house. She agitatedly told Gu Chunmei, “Mom, it’s bad, it’s bad. My uncle and my cousins are here. They are at Su Man-er’s house now!”

Qiao Xinxin was really terrified.

Wasn’t Uncle and his family in City C? Why did they appear in the village today?

Furthermore, Aunt went to City C to find Uncle yesterday.

Since Uncle was here, what about Aunt? Where was Aunt? Did Aunt finish her task?

Upon hearing this, Gu Chunmei’s breathing involuntarily grew tense.

Gu Chunmei looked at Qiao Xinxin with some surprise, “Who did you say is here? Your uncle and cousins are here?”

“Yes, they went to the Chi’s. They should be there now.” Stepping forward and staring closely at Gu Chunmei, Qiao Xinxin anxiously said, “Mom, did Aunt finish her task? Will Uncle and his family find us if she didn’t complete it? Will they cause trouble for our family?”

“What trouble?” Father Qiao, Qiao Zhengguo, came out of the house, and his face was solemn.

He glanced at Qiao Xinxin and said in a deep voice, “Don’t panic! Maybe your uncle doesn’t know anything. Maybe they won’t think of us at all!”

“Dad!” Qiao Xinxin frowned, “If Uncle went to Su Man-er’s house, Su Man-er would definitely tell on us. If she told on us, how could my uncle not know? So I…”

“Enough!” Qiao Zhengguo interrupted her, and his face became graver. “What’s wrong if they do know?! If they want to come, then they can come. When they come, the most they can do is berate us. Can they still ask us for money? Your aunt gave us the money. When your aunt gave it, we didn’t write an IOU. So if they demand it, they can’t get it anyway. So don’t panic. We must be calm!”

Gu Chunmei looked worried.

She slowly sat down in a chair. After being silent for a while, she said, “If Brother-in-law and his family knows about it, it definitely would be impossible for us to ask them for help in the future. In the future, if we still want to rely on them, I’m afraid…”

“Don’t panic. We have to adapt to the situation!” Qiao Zhengguo also sat in a chair and smoked.

He only knew one thing now: he must not panic and remain calm. If he panicked, they would have already lost the battle before Su Mingzhe and his people came!

In less than ten minutes, Su Mingzhe, Su Man-er, and the others arrived at the Qiao family’s yard.

Qiao Xinxin stood at the main room’s door. She looked at the crowd of people who had entered her yard. Her breathing grew tense, and panic involuntarily flashed across her face.
