Chapter 57 Visiting Aunt

Hongji's father was reluctant to lose money, but he could not stand by and watch his niece lose her life, nor could he let his only 13-year-old daughter face a lawsuit.

"Let's... let's go see our niece first before deciding!"

"Fine, come and see my house, and you'll know whether we are cheating you out of your money or not. Humph!"

When Mrs. Zhang saw her husband agree, she felt that scolding would not solve anything, and she seemed to relax seeing their expressions.

"Old man, our family isn't rich either; we can't afford to lose more money..." Mrs. Lai continued, but Hongji's father interrupted her, his heart aching with pain.

By then, Mrs. Lai had no more regard for appearances, afraid that Hongji's father might do something foolish and get swindled, so she followed Mr. and Mrs. Zhang out the door.

Ye Shuzhi and Ye Shuzhen also followed them to see what would happen.

Hongji had intended to go, but with the little kids at home, he stood in the yard unmoved.
