"If she wants to leave, I have to leave too. I can't let her outdo me."

As soon as these words were spoken, the yard instantly became quiet, with only the crackling sound of the fire burning in the kitchen.

"Wife, you can't leave! What will I do if you leave?"

Gu Ye, a grown man, approached Susan carefully, looking at her with aggrieved eyes, fearing that Susan would say she didn't want him.

Susan didn't say anything, but just glanced at Mu Bai. The meaning was obvious: if she didn't leave, I wouldn't leave either.

Gu Ye understood and looked at his mother.

"Mom, the third sister's family has done a great deed today, and the captain is praising her! If you get rid of her, the captain will find trouble with you."

When Old Man Gu saw that his two sons and their wives were leaving, he panicked. He had worked hard all his life and had finally managed to save enough money for the betrothal gifts for his two sons. If one of them left, he would have to work hard for a long time to get the money back. Moreover, his second son's family was filial to him, and his third son's family would be proud of him.

We can't let our daughter-in-law go.

"What are you making a fuss about? The third brother's family tamed the mad bull today. How many villagers envy him? If you want to get rid of him, aren't you afraid of being scolded tomorrow morning?"

Old Man Gu glared at Old Lady Wang with a dark face. After being scolded, Old Lady Wang also understood what had happened.

The third brother did not offend the captain and even made a contribution!

Her eyes rolled around, and she changed her previous sullen expression and came closer with a smile.

"Oh, Third Brother, I was misunderstood by those gossipy women in the village. I know you are a good person. Don't leave. If you leave, our Gu family won't be able to find a daughter-in-law as good as you. Stay, stay now!"

Mu Bai didn't move, just stared at Old Lady Wang with his cold eyes, which made Old Lady Wang's neck feel numb.

Thinking of the knife trick that the third brother had used, she was so angry that she dared to scratch her.

"Old Third's, mother... mother was also excited at the moment, don't be angry, don't leave."

Gu Mu's eyes were also red, and he looked at Mu Bai with grievance.

"Wife, do you really not want me anymore? If you really want to leave, take me with you!"

As soon as Gu Mu said this, Old Lady Wang's face turned black and she reached out to hit Gu Mu, saying, "This unfilial son, he abandoned his parents for a woman."

Mu Bai's eyes turned cold, and he grabbed Old Lady Wang's hand and threw it back.

"How dare you lay hands on my people?"

Gu Mu's eyes lit up. His wife said that he was hers. Did it mean that she was going to take him away?

Gu Mu was excited and let go of his wife's clothes.

"Wife, I'm going to pack my clothes, wait for me."

Old Mrs. Wang staggered a few steps to stand firm, but when she heard what the third brother said, she sat down on the ground and cried out.

"You have no conscience. Your parents don't want you anymore. They raised you for nothing. Now that you have a wife, you forget about your mother."

Gu Mu frowned slightly when he heard the old lady Wang's curse, and looked down to see the nail marks on his chest.

The wife protects her, the mother only likes the fourth son, and he is stuck in the middle and is nothing.

His men moved faster, quickly packed up the things and carried them out. However, Mu Bai did not rush to leave, but just walked to the side of Old Lady Wang and stood still.

"Yes, just shout like that, let everyone in the village think that Gu Mu is a good-for-nothing and unfilial, so he will have no psychological burden to go with me."

As soon as Mu Baihua finished speaking, Old Lady Wang was stunned. She looked up and saw that the third brother was looking down and not looking at her. She suddenly came to her senses.

If you keep yelling, it will only push your son further away.

"Third brother, please don't leave. Mother won't chase your wife away. I know I was wrong, really."

Gu Mu didn't respond, just looked at his wife.

Mu Bai did not express his opinion, but just stretched out his hand.

Old Mrs. Wang looked at the hand stretched out in front of her, feeling a little confused.

"What, what are you going to do?"

Mu Bai curled his lips and smiled for once.

"You hit my man and hurt my young heart. It's okay if you don't let us go. Just pay for the medical expenses and mental damages."

Old Mrs. Wang widened her eyes, remained silent for a long time, and swallowed her saliva.

"Then how much do you want?"

Mu Bai raised a finger, and Mrs. Wang breathed a sigh of relief. One dollar! That's a good relationship, she can still afford it.

She fumbled for her waist bag when Mu Bai spoke.

"Ten dollars!"

"What, what did you say?"

Old Lady Wang's eyes widened again, even bigger than before, like two copper bells, and the sound was so loud that it split her legs.

Susan looked at the finger that Mu Bai extended and felt amused. He thought he was going to teach Old Lady Wang a lesson!

Before the smile faded from her eyes, the bag in her hand felt lighter.

She looked up and met Gu Ye's deep eyes.

"Wife, the third brother's family is not leaving. I'll help you put your things back."

Susan pursed her lips and met the man's dark eyes. What could she say? She nodded slightly.

Gu Ye breathed a sigh of relief, picked up the bag and put the things back. Still worried that his wife would have another attack, he took out the things one by one, put them in the cabinet, and locked them all.

Susan was very upset.

"What are you doing? Guarding against me?"

Gu Ye heard the unhappiness in his wife's tone and shook his head with a strong desire to survive.

"No, I was thinking of putting them together for my wife so that it would be easier for you to take them next time."

Susan narrowed her eyes and stared at Gu Ye.

Gu Ye usually sees little women as delicate and weak, and their eyes would even turn red when they feel wronged.

Seeing him look so calm now, his heart skipped a beat.

"Are you expecting me to leave?"

Gu Ye's fingertips trembled, and he seemed to be doing nothing right.

"Wife, no, I don't want you to leave. I wanted to lock the door."

Susan looked up at him.

"So you're still on guard against me?"

Gu Ye was dumbfounded. No, why did his wife suddenly become unreasonable? What he said was nothing.

He stared at Susan's moist lips. He felt uncomfortable hearing such unreasonable words and didn't want to listen anymore, so he leaned over and blocked her mouth.

Now Gu Ye felt relieved, and Susan also shut up.

The fight in the house was intense, and the fight in the yard was also intense.

Old Mrs. Wang looked at the finger for a long time without moving.

"Old Third's family, my family is poor, I don't have that much, how about I give you one."

As soon as Mu Bai finished speaking, he pulled Gu Mu, turned on his toes, and headed towards the door.

Gu Mu was like a big dog on a leash, his eyes sparkling as he hurried to follow.

Old Mrs. Wang panicked when she saw it, and rushed over to block the door with her hands.

"The third family's, five dollars. We really don't have any more. That's all."

Mu Bai frowned. Seeing that Old Lady Wang didn't look like she was lying, he thought that she was only willing to give five dollars.

"Okay, bring it here!"

Old Mrs. Wang, feeling distressed, collected five dollars and gave it to Mu Bai, and the matter was finally settled.

Gu Mu looked at the five dollars in his wife's hand and felt a little regretful. He thought he and his wife would live happily ever after!

It seems that all hopes are dashed.

Susan came out of the room with red lips and watery eyes.
