Xu Zhi was speechless for a long time.

After a long while he said, "Nothing else?"

Wan Chuncao asked him ignorantly: "What else?"

"My stepmother only told me to live a good life with my husband. Is there anything else I should ask?"

She asked so bluntly that Xu Zhi didn't know how to respond.

He then asked tactfully: "Is there nothing left for you to use?"

Wan Chuncao still looked confused: "What do you mean by practical things?"

That means no more.

Xu Zhi looked at Wan Chuncao's confused expression and felt a little angry.

Unexpectedly, Yu Xiu arranged such a ridiculous marriage with no room for maneuver, but it was not handled properly at all!

With a straight face, Xu Zhi took out a card and gave it to Wan Chuncao: "Take it."

The streetlight was bright, but Wan Chuncao still tried to identify it. She didn't take it and just asked, "Dad, what is this?"

She didn't dare to take such an obvious card easily. She must have never seen it before.

Even when he came to Xu Muyu, he probably had never seen him.

Xu Zhi was inevitably moved and no longer treated others seriously. He handed the card over again: "Here, this is the card I gave you. Mu Yu has no money, you need money."

"I don't want it."

Wan Chuncao shook her head calmly: "We still have money, and I still have some dowry left."

No matter how poor the Xu family is, they cannot spend a woman's dowry!

Xu Zhi forced the card into Wan Chuncao's hand and said, "I'm overseas and can't come back for your wedding. This is my gift to you."

Even though the cards were stuffed into his hand, Wan Chuncao still showed no intention of taking them.

She shook her head calmly again: "Dad, you should leave it to brother Xiaocheng. Isn't he in school?"

Xu Zhi was stunned.

Wan Chuncao said, "I heard from the old lady in our family that Xiaocheng is studying abroad. I have never been abroad, so I don't know what it is like, but I know that it costs a lot of money to go abroad."

She pushed the card back to Xu Zhi: "Dad, those who can go abroad are promising people. My husband and I can't do anything, so you should leave it to brother Xiaocheng, he has a promising future."

Although Wan Chuncao spoke sincerely, Xu Zhi felt a bitterness rising in his heart.

He insisted on giving her the card: "Take it, there is still money at home."

"I know everything, Dad."

Wan Chuncao still didn't take it. She said: "On the first day I came here, I saw my husband's house and I knew that the family had no money. My stepmother said that the family had money because she was afraid that I would run away."

"I know that rich people don't live in such old and dilapidated houses, and they don't have hot meals every day."

"Dad, it's not easy for you to make money. You have to support my younger brother Xiaocheng and my stepmother. The family needs you to work hard so that the whole family can have enough food."

"Now that Xiaocheng has finally been admitted to a foreign school, we can't take away his tuition money."

The sourness surged up and reached the throat.

Xu Zhi didn’t know what Wan Chuncao and Xu Muyu had experienced together, but he wouldn’t have said such words if he hadn’t seen how poor this family was.

He didn't even know that Xu Muyu's life had become like this.

I originally thought that Xu Muyu was stubborn, and living here, with Liu Ma taking care of him, his life would not be difficult at all.

What's more, Yu Xiu also said that she often visited Xu Muyu and said that Xu Muyu was fine, but he just didn't like to see people.

But now, this country girl who seemed like she couldn't lie not only did not enjoy a good life with Xu Muyu, but her life was even harder than that in the countryside.

It was so hard that she felt sorry for his father who worked so hard to make money, and she thought Xu Yicheng couldn't afford to go to school, so it was natural that Yu Xiu didn't leave a penny for her and Xu Muyu.

But in the end, is it that Wan Chuncao and his wife have a hard life, or is it that he, as a father, left everything to his younger son and supported his current wife, while ignoring the stubborn older son.

Xu Zhi was unable to speak and could only give the card to Wan Chuncao.

Guan Chuncao will not accept it.

"Dad, my family is poor. I started working when I was a teenager. I've seen everything. I know how hard it is to make money."

She shook her head again and said, "For a country girl like me, I am already content to marry a man. I can always make it through. It is better than eating porridge in the countryside. We are young and can still hold on. Dad, it is not easy for you to make money, so I will leave it to you for your old age."

Saying this is not just to gain sympathy.

Those who have been fighting for power in the business world for years may not be unable to see the cleverness of others. So Wan Chuncao can also attribute her cleverness to a means of self-protection after entering society early.

It also explains why she married Xu Muyu and answers the questions in the minds of people like Xu Zhi and Liu Ma.

The reason she married him was simply because the best way out she could find was Xu Muyu, and marrying Xu Muyu was considered marrying a high position.

Therefore, she came here to live a good life, with no other purpose.

Xu Zhi was in an unusually complicated mood. He said, "The money at home is not as little as you think. I can still afford it."

"I know you can still make money, but you should keep this money."

Seeing Xu Zhi forcing the card in her again, Wan Chuncao still refused: "I know you are good to us, Dad, I know it all. But we really can't take your money. I'm still young, and I'm still here if my husband can't work. I can sell pork, and I can earn money to support my husband and me."

"You still have to support your stepmother and pay for your brother Xiaocheng's education. No matter how hard our lives are, we can't be greedy for this money."

These words are extremely sincere, coming from the simplicity of a country girl.

But the simpler she was, the more sad she made people feel. What was surging in Xu Zhi's heart was more than just bitterness.

Perhaps there is also regret for ignoring Xu Muyu, heartache for the hard days of Xu Muyu and Guan Chuncao, and a little regret for being partial to Xu Yicheng and Yu Xiu.

All kinds of emotions intertwined in his heart, making him feel even more ashamed and guilty in front of this simple country girl.

He had to give the card: "Child, please accept it. Accept my heart."

The card was passed between the two of them several times, and finally came into the hands of Wan Chuncao.

Seeing that she couldn't refuse, Wan Chuncao pretended to be tough and persuaded him: "Dad, please stay."

As if she knew what Xu Zhi was going to say, she pressed his hand politely: "Just think of it as staying for us."

Xu Zhi looked at her with doubt in his eyes.

"Dad, my husband and I, one is in a wheelchair and the other is a country girl,"

Wan Chuncao looked directly at Xu Zhi, her eyes filled with sadness: "For people like us, this life is over."

"I've been through a lot, and I can handle it, but how can a man like me who's in a wheelchair handle it?"

"Dad, this little money is just a request from you."

"Please, after a hundred years, leave a big coffin for my man, so that he can stretch his legs properly after he dies, and not walk with broken legs."

In the end, Wan Chuncao never took the card.

Xu Zhi finally left, without even saying goodbye to Wan Chuncao.

The next day, just after dawn, Secretary Gu brought the card again, along with a share donation contract.

The graduation gift originally intended for Xu Yicheng was given to Xu Muyu.

Another 10% more.

Xu Muyu signed.

The pen handed to me by Wan Chuncao.
