Quickly wear salted fish, she won by lying down

Chapter 1529 Good Luck Continues (18)
Li's mother didn't expect things to be so easy. She only mentioned that Li's father should treat Linlang a little more fairly, or even better. Li's father was furious and wanted to drive her away. If he succeeded, that would be great. Anyway, she had seen his true colors. After all, what was the point of a man who thought his daughter didn't deserve his money?
Mr. Li hadn't expected that his bluff to scare Mrs. Li wouldn't work. Instead, Mrs. Li demanded that he get a divorce certificate immediately. How could he do that? After all, if they were divorced, the person she found next might not be as honest as Mrs. Li, and it wouldn't be good to make him hand over his salary.

But he was also a chauvinist and very concerned about his image. He couldn't bring himself to apologize or ask Li's mother to stay. Seeing that Li's mother was packing her things and seemed to really want to leave, he could only scold her, saying, "What are you doing on your day off?!"

Li's mother said coldly, "Why are you making a fuss? Give Linlang two hundred yuan and I won't leave. Otherwise, my daughter and I will leave. Anyway, you don't care about us and won't give us a single penny. What are we still doing here?"

Mr. Li naturally didn't want to give her the money. Although it was only two hundred yuan, which wasn't much compared to his salary, he still didn't want to give it to her. He felt that Linlang wasn't like his eldest daughter, who was planning to stay at home and have her husband marry into the family. She was going to get married and leave the family. He hadn't asked her for household expenses and had her hand over her salary every month, which was already quite generous of him. How could he possibly give her two hundred yuan?
So Li's father immediately said, "Can Linlang be compared to Qiuyun? Qiuyun is planning to have a son-in-law marry into her family, which is the same as having a son. Unless Linlang also has a son-in-law marry into her family, how can a girl expect to inherit property? I'm already being lenient by not making her pay money every month. You two, don't push your luck!"

He knew Linlang wouldn't take a son-in-law as her husband. Even if Linlang wanted to take a son-in-law for the sake of the inheritance, he wouldn't agree. He only wanted to give the money to Li Qiuyun and Li Zhiguo. His youngest daughter already had enough money from her mother, so why would she need more of his money? He probably forgot that Li Qiuyun's mother gave her much more than the original owner's mother had given her. After all, Li Qiuyun's mother had given her a job, which was much better than the little money the original owner's mother could save each month. It was a lifelong guarantee.

He couldn't see that; he only knew that his eldest daughter was pitiful because she didn't have a mother. So he only gave his money to his eldest daughter, while his younger daughter had a mother to take care of her and didn't need his concern.

Li's mother said coldly, "Oh, you think my daughter and I don't deserve the property, that taking the property is taking advantage of you? Fine, we'll leave then. We won't take advantage of you, okay?"

Seeing that Li's mother was still going to leave, Li's father became furious and said, "Then let Linlang pay back the money I've spent raising her all these years. If she doesn't give me two thousand yuan, she can't leave!"

He knew the two of them didn't have two thousand yuan, so he said that.

Of course, if those two had two thousand yuan, he would be willing to go with them, because two thousand yuan was very valuable at that time. He could get two thousand yuan from the woman in a divorce. With that money, he could find any kind of partner, and he wouldn't care about Li's mother anymore.

Of course, he couldn't say he was asking Li's mother for money; he could only say he was asking Linlang for money. After all, asking a woman for two thousand yuan after a divorce would be disrespectful to the people in the courtyard. He was a man of pride, a grown man, and he couldn't afford to lose face like that.

Knowing he wouldn't ask her for money, Li's mother coldly replied, "If I leave alone and my daughter doesn't, why should she give you money? You won't give Linlang money, fine, but you expect Linlang to give you money too? You're dreaming. If I leave alone, do you still want two thousand yuan from me? If it goes to court, you earn more than me, so you'll have to take a share of my money!"

Li's mother was gentle, but that didn't mean she was stupid. She was, after all, a city worker and knew a little about marriage law. It was impossible for Li's father to stop her from leaving and ask her for two thousand yuan.

So it didn't matter if Li's father didn't let Linlang leave; she could just leave on her own. That way, she wouldn't have to quit her job to take care of her husband and parents in the future. Anyway, she would never let Linlang give her money. Of course, neither she nor her mother had that much money to give Li's father. Even if they did, she wouldn't give it to him. After all, it was one thing for Li's father not to give them money, but for him to expect them to give him money was something only a crazy person would do.

Seeing that his wife was about to leave, and unable to reason with her, Mr. Li tried to hit her. However, Mrs. Li was not afraid at all and went straight to him, saying, "Hit me, hit me. If you hit me even once, I will go to your workplace tomorrow and let everyone see how you hit a woman."

These words silenced Li's father. People like them, who have jobs, are terrified of this kind of trouble.

Especially since he's vying for awards and various benefits, if he does something shameful like this, people will definitely accuse him of domestic violence and stop giving him those benefits.

So how could Li's father dare to hit Li's mother? Of course, he would never threaten to kill the whole family like some men do, because with his high salary and good status, if he killed someone, everything would be ruined. How could that be? He hadn't had enough of his good life yet.

This is also why Li's mother was able to suppress Li's father. Those who have nothing to lose are not afraid of those who have something to lose, and Li's father, who earns such a high monthly salary, is obviously someone who has something to lose, so he wouldn't dare to do anything.

So, Li's father had no choice but to say, "Why do you have to make such a fuss when we can live a peaceful life together? Qiu Yun lost eight hundred yuan. Where would eight hundred yuan come from? Since you don't have it, why should I give Lin Lang two hundred yuan?"

"She said it was lost, but maybe it wasn't? Anyway, if you don't fix it, I'm leaving."

Unable to bear her commotion any longer, Mr. Li said, "Give Linlang a hundred yuan, and stop making a scene. There's no way I'll give you two hundred yuan. If you insist on demanding two hundred yuan, then get out of here. Stay or leave if you want."

One hundred yuan is not a lot of money for him, after all, he earns seventy or eighty yuan a month and can save it up in two or three months.

When Li's mother heard that Li's father was willing to give her 100 yuan, she was overjoyed. She thought that she would let it go for today and deal with it later. Anyway, she would make a fuss like this every now and then, and she would also have some conflicts with Li Qiuyun and others. If these people spoke ill of her to Li's father, Li's father would eventually kick her out.

At that moment, Li's mother took the hundred yuan that Li's father had reluctantly given her and handed it to Linlang, saying, "I made a fuss with your father today. I was originally thinking that he would leave if he didn't give me the money, but since he gave me a hundred yuan, I'll stay for now and we can talk about this slowly."

Linlang refused and let Li's mother take it herself.

Li's mother firmly refused, saying, "It was originally given to you by your father. You should take it. He also told us not to tell anyone, lest Li Qiuyun, Li Zhiguo, and your grandfather be unhappy..."

Linlang said, "Then I'll definitely tell everyone, so they'll be unhappy and complain about you to Dad..."
