Wang Guihua finished speaking in one breath and was about to turn around and leave when she remembered that she had come to ask for the two taels of silver back.

So he looked at Su Mo angrily and said:

"Since we have nothing to do with each other anymore, you shouldn't keep my money. Just give me back the two taels of silver you took from Su Feng's house that day!"

Upon hearing this, Su Mo immediately panicked.

"Then, the money... the money was all spent long ago..."

Upon hearing this, Wang Guihua's eyes widened as she looked at Su Mo.

"What? That's two taels of silver! How could you have spent it all?!"

Su Mo bit her lower lip and stammered as she spoke:

“I used all that money to buy ingredients for candied hawthorns, so I don’t have any money to pay you back right now. But once I’ve earned some money, I will definitely pay you back.”

Wang Guihua was furious upon hearing this. She hadn't expected Su Mo to use her own money to buy the ingredients for candied hawthorns and go against her family's business.

So he didn't give Su Mo a friendly look and said coldly:

"I don't care, if you don't have any money to give me, then you can give me all the things you bought to pay off your debt!"

Upon hearing this, Lin immediately panicked. If she gave all the ingredients for the candied hawthorns to Wang Guihua, wouldn't her business be ruined after just one day?

So Lin immediately stepped in front of Su Mo, pointed at Wang Guihua's nose, and scolded:

"Wang Guihua, do you have any humanity left? Su Mo has called you 'Mother' for so many years, are you going to force her like this?"

Wang Guihua sneered.

"What good is it for her to call me mother? I think she's closer to you, her third aunt. It's laughable that she'd actually use our own money to do business for you!"

Wang Guihua has also started to clear her head. Before, she didn't dare to say a word when facing the Su family, but now she can debate with them. This is the confidence that Su Banxia gave her.

Originally, Wang Guihua relied on the Su family for a living, but now that she has separated from the Su family, her life is getting better and better, and her family has some resources. So now, Wang Guihua no longer wants to tolerate the Su family.

He then lost the fear he had felt towards the third wife and became bolder in his speech.

Lin was naturally taken aback by Wang Guihua's sudden sharp tongue after they went to the foot of Dwarf Mountain. She was momentarily stunned, unsure how to respond.

"You, you, you're going too far! Su Mo is your daughter, after all. You should at least consider the mother-daughter relationship you've had for so many years. Besides, it's not like she's not going to pay you back. Why can't you wait until she makes money before giving you back the principal?"

After a long pause, Lin finally managed to utter this sentence. Wang Guihua sneered upon hearing it.

"So you mean I should give you money to do business, and then let your business destroy ours?"

Wang Guihua stepped forward and looked at Lin Shi, saying:

"I'm not stupid enough to be fooled by you. I'll give you two days to gather the money and send it to me. Otherwise, I'll make this public so everyone can see what kind of people you are."

After saying that, Wang Guihua glared fiercely at Su Mo and then turned and left.

As soon as Wang Guihua stepped out of the Su family's courtyard, she breathed a sigh of relief. She had never imagined that she could shout at the Su family so confidently. Now that she had vented all her anger, she felt much better.

Just thinking about Su Mona's cold words to him made him feel empty and sad. Could it be that he would really not recognize her as a girl in the future?

After all, she was a piece of her own flesh and blood, and Wang Guihua couldn't bear to push Su Mo too hard.

So Wang Guihua gave Su Mo two days to figure out a way herself. However, if Lin wanted to continue the candied hawthorn business, she would have to find a way to raise money with Su Mo to pay back her.

If he couldn't pay back the money, then they wouldn't be able to continue their candied hawthorn business. In that case, no one would compete with Su Banxia for business, and Wang Guihua would feel that she hadn't let her eldest daughter down.

As soon as Wang Guihua left, Lin Shi became anxious and paced around in circles, grabbing Su Mo's arm.

“You didn’t tell me before that this money was given to you by your mother. Now, only a few days later, she’s asking for it again. How are we going to do business like this?”

Su Mo flung Lin's hand away, watched Wang Guihua's departing figure, and spoke coldly.

"You heard it just now, she only gave us two days. If you still want to make this candied hawthorn business, you'll have to find a way to get the money."

Upon hearing this, Lin immediately became anxious.

"Hey, Su Mo, you don't do things like this. When we did business together before, you promised me and your third uncle that we wouldn't have to pay anything, we would only have to do the work. How come you're going back on your word now?"

Su Mo looked at Lin Shi with displeasure.

"Things are different now. You saw what happened just now. It's not that I don't want to pay, it's just that I don't have the money on hand right now. Besides, even if I only contribute my skills, that's enough!"

Su Mo paused for a moment, then continued:

"Anyway, Wang Guihua has said it, and she will definitely come to ask for the money in two days. You should hurry up and find a way to get the money. Otherwise, we can return these materials to Wang Guihua to settle the debt. It's just a matter of breaking up the business. Anyway, I'm not the one who's in a hurry to separate from the Su family. I'll be getting married after the New Year. You can worry about your own affairs from now on!"

After saying that, Su Meng ignored Lin Shi and turned to go into the house.

When Granny Liu returned from her walk and saw Su Mo enter the room where the second wife used to live, she immediately became anxious.

"Hey, hey, hey, where are you going, you brat? Why aren't you going back to your second wife's family? What are you doing in our courtyard? We've already separated our households, are you still trying to take advantage of me?"

Su Mo felt a surge of anger rising within her upon hearing Granny Liu's voice. Having nowhere to vent her pent-up rage, she stopped in her tracks and turned to look at Granny Liu.

"Grandma, you don't even know what good things you've done. Now that you've accepted the betrothal money from Su Feng, it's only right that you prepare my dowry. Before I marry Su Feng, I will continue to live in this courtyard of the Su family. This room is my room, and none of you can take it from me!"

Upon hearing this, Granny Liu flew into a rage and grabbed a broom from the courtyard wall, swinging it at Su Mo...
