Su Li propped her cheeks and watched the farce on the street.
Chu Xiao's mother was shameless enough, targeting the future daughter-in-law, who she knew had a thin face, blatantly stretching out her hand for money.
She didn't dare to run directly to the Mu Residence, though.
The Mu Family didn't just have Mu Xiu'er as a daughter; they also had a son to uphold the family honor.
But that son was born out of wedlock and not close to Mu Xiu'er.
If things got too ugly, she feared she wouldn't get a single cent.
Mrs. Chu had some tricks up her sleeve, believing she still had a hold over the frail Mu Xiu'er.
The successes from the past few times boosted her confidence, and as soon as she finished speaking, she turned her gaze to the maid beside her.
The expression on her face was unmistakable; she was signaling for her to get the money.
Mu Xiu'er was deemed by the Chu Family as their personal money tree.
But this time, she was bound to be disappointed.
