On this day, four vegetable shops opened in the town. Maybe it was an auspicious day or an appointment, but each shop held a promotion, which attracted many of Su Qingyu’s regular customers. There were few customers in the shop all day.

Su Qingyu secretly collected some leftovers in the system, asked Grandma Zhou to take some back, and requested that Da Jiang and others deliver a lot to some regular customers.

The store closed early, and thinking that she hadn’t been back to Lu’s house for dinner for a long time, she went back.

Before she even reached the main room, I heard the laughter of Lu Yuzhu and her two brothers, the sound echoing through the roof.

Su Qingyu walked over and saw three people holding plums, apricots, and other fruits and throwing them at each other for fun. They caught them with their mouths, with one hand, with the backhand, while jumping, while bending over, and playing with the fruits in various ways.

Looking at the ground again, there were fruits scattered all over the ground, plums, apricots, and dates, many of which were smashed to pieces. All of them were fruits that Su Qingmei bought from the store.

Even the baskets on the table are exclusive to her shop’s customers.

When the three siblings saw Su Qing’an coming, they didn’t hold back at all. They grabbed a handful of pearls from the basket and threw them at each other for fun. Some of them almost hit Su Qing’an…

She exploded immediately!

She rushed forward and kicked Lu Yuzhu and the chair to the ground!

Lu Yuzhu was caught off guard and was kicked down immediately, lying on the ground.

Lu Bozu reacted, stood up, and rushed towards her. Su Qingyu waited for him to get close, then kicked him three inches below the knee, making him kneel on the ground.

His knees hit the bluestone bricks with a heavy bang.

He immediately grimaced, his face distorted with pain.

Lu Bozong was so frightened that he stood there.

Seeing Su Qing’an coming towards him, he begged for mercy again and again: “Sister-in-law, I was wrong. I was wrong, sister-in-law…”

Su Qingyu gritted her teeth at him, gave him a cold look, walked towards the chair next to him, and kicked him…

The chair flew out immediately! It hit the door frame heavily, and after a loud bang, it fell to the ground, and several of the armrests and legs were broken apart.

Lu Yuzhu and Lu Bozu, who had originally stood up and wanted to rush over to fight her, were shocked! Their eyes widened, their faces full of disbelief.

Lu Bozong trembled a few times and begged for mercy: “Sister-in-law, we were wrong. We won’t do it again.”

He was frightened by Su Qingyu’s actions. Was his sister-in-law so strong?

Four vegetable shops opened in the town today, and Wu Shi went out to see what was going on.

Su Qingyu’s second gu ^[1]paternal aunt was her good friend, and she went to her shop to see what was going on. Seeing that Su Qingyu’s second gu had opened a vegetable shop and that business was booming, Wu Shi’s fire in her heart was rekindled.

She ran to her own grocery store to persuade Lu Shengcai to open a vegetable store like this.

She was rejected by Lu Shengcai.

Wu Shi entered the room angrily before Lu Shengcai. When she saw the situation in the main hall, she immediately jumped up.

“Su Shi, what are you doing? Do you still have eyes for these brothers and sisters? Your father and I are not at home, and you treat them like this? You are still the eldest sister-in-law! Your father-in-law and I are not dead yet!”

Originally, Lu Shengcai rejected Wu Shi, and seeing that she was angry, he followed her out of the shop and went home early. He was a step behind, and when he saw Wu yelling, he quickly followed to see.

Seeing the appearance of the main room, he frowned and shouted, “What’s going on?”

Su Qingyu was too lazy to talk.

She was already feeling sullen today, and when she got home she saw the result of the three siblings treating her like this. She couldn’t suppress the anger in her heart.

The Lu family’s shop was a small business. The family had two sons who needed to study and spend money, and Wu Shi was the head of the family, so they lived frugally.

When Aunt Zhou bought vegetables, Wu Shi would always compare prices with her, fearing that she would take advantage of the situation. Normally, the family didn’t eat meat every day, and fruit was only seen less than twice a week.

Ever since Su Qingyu opened the shop, Wu Shi had been spending lavishly.

The dishes filled the table and could not be finished. Aunt Zhou picked up a lot of leftovers every day to avoid waste. Meat was available at every meal, and there were many varieties. Fruits were also available every day, and they were rotated.

Originally, Su Qingyu felt that both Lu Bocheng and she were part of this family. Since Lu Bocheng was married, he also had the responsibility to support the family. So she didn’t mind when Wu Shi took the vegetables from the store without paying.

Unexpectedly, this actually fueled her anger.

Look at this, it had come to the point of eating one and throwing one away!

Su Qingyu couldn’t suppress her anger at all.

Wu Shi didn’t know that everyone in her store, from her to the two twins, treated every leaf of vegetable with great care. Every egg and fruit had to be wiped clean before being put on the shelf.

Then when she saw them being picked up, she felt a sense of accomplishment.

When she saw the fruits on the ground being ruined like this, she immediately exploded! How could she suppress her anger?

After listening to Lu Bozong’s story, Lu Shengcai became a little angry and scolded Lu Bozong and others.

Lu Yuzhu was full of dissatisfaction: “Isn’t it just a few fruits? Can’t our family afford to eat them? I eat them when I want and throw them away when I want. This is my Lu family! If you can’t stand it, don’t look at it. Your surname is Su, not Lu!”

“Yuzhu! How do you talk to your sister-in-law like that!” Lu Shengcai shouted.

Su Qingyu looked at her coldly.

“My last name is Su, but my husband’s last name is Lu! If he doesn’t divorce me, I will still be a member of this family. Of course, I will say something if I can’t stand it. And what you destroyed was the food from my shop! You have money, but I never saw you throwing it at me. You have money but you still take my food without paying! Not only did you not pay, but you also destroyed it and didn’t let me speak. How spoiled are you!”

“Since your husband’s last name is Lu, you and he have the responsibility to support the family. We haven’t divided the family yet! You should bring all the money you earn back home! What’s wrong with taking your food? How much money do you get for a few dishes?”

“It’s true that I don’t have much money, then why don’t you give me some money? You are so rich, but you are stingy with the money for a few dishes?”

After Su Qingyu finished speaking, she looked at Wu Shi again. Did this mean that if the family was not divided, she couldn’t take back what she earned?

She continued, “When it comes to supporting the family, then we should support them together. It doesn’t make sense that only my eldest family should be responsible for it! And you are responsible for spending the money. Since my eldest room has a share in supporting the family, then the income from the store and the rent of the land should also be shared with the eldest family. Let Dad calculate the income from the store and give our eldest room a share of the monthly salary. We can’t just spend without earning and be treated differently!”

“Why? You want to share the profits from the shop! You are so shameless!” Lu Yuzhu and Wu Shi jumped up at the same time.

“Because I didn’t use the money from this family to open a shop! That is considered my dowry and private property.” After Su Qingyu finished speaking, she looked at Lu Shengcai.

Lu Shengcai didn’t say anything. He had promised Bocheng not to interfere with the Su Shi.

He silently looked at the ruined and trampled fruits on the ground.

He also survived a hard life. When he was a child in the village, he could hardly eat fruit once a month, and he had to rob wild fruits. There were many children in the village, and the wild fruits in the wild were picked before they were ripe.

He also noticed the changes in the dinner table during this period. The meat and vegetables were much richer. He just thought it was Su Shi’s filial piety. He didn’t expect Wu Shi to take the household allowance from him but didn’t give it to Su Shi.

“From now on, we will give you some household expenses every month. If the store does good business at the end of the year, Dad will also give you some money for the New Year.” Lu Shengcai made the final decision.

After saying this, without waiting for others to react, he saw Aunt Zhou standing outside the main hall with a nervous look on her face, and said to her, “Set the table.”

“Oh.” Aunt Zhou wiped her sweat and ran away.

She had just been worried about the Bocheng family bullying Su Shi and wanted to help, but she didn’t expect that she could fight against Wu Shi and others alone and not be at a disadvantage at all.

Sure enough, what her mother-in-law said was right. The Bocheng family would definitely go further in the future. Her Zhou family must follow her closely.

When Wu Shi heard that Lu Shengcai wanted to give Su Qingyu household expenses, she felt dissatisfied. She gave her two taels of vegetables, which showed that she respected her, but she dared to ask her for household expenses?

Increase revenue for your shop? Wouldn’t that have made you so happy you could die?

Wu Shi acted as if nothing had happened and even scolded Lu Yuzhu and the other two in front of Lu Shengcai, doing everything a mother should do.

But she quickly came up with a solution in her mind.
