Chapter 179 Don't Be a Light Bulb
When Liu's father saw Su Guangzong coming back, he was no longer polite.
"Your son is about to be sentenced to death, and my daughter is still young. I don't want her to spend the rest of her life as a widow, living under such harsh in-laws as you. We must divorce today!"
The Su and Liu families have been relatives for more than ten years, but this is the first time that the good-tempered Liu father has lost his temper.
Before he could react, Hu Xiumei asked in disbelief, "What did you say? Whose son is going to be sentenced to death?"
Liu Shumei said: "Whose son could it be? Your son, your Su Sheng!"
"No, it's impossible. Our Su Sheng is fine, how could he be sentenced to death? You just made up this lie to get a divorce. You want to deceive us old couple? Don't even think about it!"
Su Guangzong also reacted, "Yes, don't try to deceive us."
Su Hao, who had been silent the whole time, couldn't help but say, "Grandpa and grandma, my aunt is right. My father has indeed broken the law and will be beheaded in two days!"
"What!"
Hu Xiumei and Su Guangzong's legs went weak and they almost fell down.
"No, this isn't true. It can't be!"
"The boss was fine just two days ago, how could he have broken the law? It's absolutely impossible!"
Su Lian said, "Grandpa and grandma, we didn't lie! Dad went too far. Everyone in the county knows about his evil deeds. If you go to the county and ask around, you'll find out!"
Liu Shumei said, "Before the news reaches the village, you should sign the divorce agreement quickly and give my sister and two children freedom. The children's future will not be affected by the murderer Su Sheng, and it can also be considered as accumulating some merit for your Su family."
Hu Xiumei and Su Guangzong really didn't want to sign, but they knew that the entire Liu family had come and would not give up until they achieved their goal. If they didn't sign, the Liu family would definitely publicize it.
They were already too embarrassed to face anyone in the village, and if this matter were to be known to the villagers, they would really lose face.
After a brief thought, Su Guangzong agreed to sign.
There were two copies of the divorce agreement, and both parties signed and sealed it. Each party took a copy, and the matter was settled.
The Liu family achieved their goal and left immediately.
Hu Xiumei burst into tears.
"Why is my life so miserable? I worked so hard to give birth to three sons, but none of them survived. I still have to clean up their messes when I'm old! What sin have I committed?"
Su Guangzong was also very annoyed. He didn't want to listen to Hu Xiumei's crying, so he got up and went out, heading straight for the county town.
He knew that the Liu family was not lying, but he would not feel at ease unless he saw Su Sheng with his own eyes and confirmed for himself that Su Sheng was indeed imprisoned and executed two days later.
As soon as he arrived at the gate of the county town, he saw the notice at the gate with information about Su Sheng's crimes and his immediate execution.
After seeing this notice, Su Guangzong completely gave up.
It turns out it's all true.
He actually raised such a scoundrel son.
He sneered and walked home dejectedly.
On the way, it started snowing heavily and the wind was blowing hard.
He walked into the village with difficulty in the wind and snow. When he was about to reach the door of his house, he slipped and fell.
When he got up again, he felt severe pain in his legs and his whole body was frozen. He just wanted to get into the house to warm up quickly, so he endured the pain and moved into the house step by step.
After entering the house, he said, "Old woman, please take a look at me. My leg seems to be broken."
But there was no answer from Hu Xiumei.
He looked up and saw Hu Xiumei lying on the kang with foam coming out of her mouth.
Hu Xiumei couldn't handle the continuous stimulation and cried until she was deprived of oxygen, had cramps, foamed at the mouth, and her body twitched constantly.
Seeing this, Su Guangzong hurried over to comfort Hu Xiumei, telling her not to be upset and not to be hard on him, and helped her rub the cramps.
After a lot of tossing and turning, although Hu Xiumei did not have cramps and fell asleep, it was too late.
Because of the long period of lack of oxygen, Hu Xiumei had become stupid and paralyzed, but Su Guangzong didn't know it yet.
Su Guangzong was still thinking that when Hu Xiumei woke up, he would ask her to help him find a doctor to treat his leg.
However, she never expected that when Hu Xiumei woke up, her mouth was crooked, her eyes were slanted, and she couldn't even speak clearly.
Su Guangzong also fainted due to the pain in his legs.
Winters in the north are extremely cold. If the house is not heated in time, people can freeze to death in one night.
Su Guangzong and Hu Xiumei died silently on this cold night.
By the time it was discovered, it was already the beginning of spring.
When all things came back to life, the bodies of the two men rotted and stank, and were discovered by the villagers.
……
In the winter month, Lan Ling came to Su's noodle shop and took Su Xiaoxiao's hand and acted coquettishly.
"I'm going back to Beijing to celebrate the New Year, sister. Will you miss me while I'm away?"
Su Xiaoxiao smiled and comforted, "Of course I'll miss you. Will you come back in the future?"
"I'll come after the New Year, but I'm not sure when exactly. If I have any news, I'll write to you!"
"Okay, then when are you leaving? I'll make you something delicious to see you off!"
"Three days later!"
Xiao Ran, who happened to walk in, heard everything the two were talking about.
"Oh, our Miss Lan is going back to the capital? In that case, why don't you come to my Youfenglai Restaurant tomorrow? I'll ask the kitchen to make some delicious food to see Miss Lan off, how about that?"
Lan Ling saw Xiao Ran's intention and teased, "Young Master Xiao, are you worried that my sister will get tired from cooking?"
Su Xiaoxiao squeezed Lan Ling's hand embarrassedly.
"What did my sister say?"
Xiao Ran felt very happy and admitted it generously.
"Seeing through it but not saying it out loud! Besides, if I don't love the woman I like, should I wait for someone else to love her? Just tell them that Fenglai Restaurant is here to see you off, okay?"
"Of course, since Master Xiao is treating me, I won't hesitate!"
After saying that, Lan Ling stopped being a third wheel for the two of them and left tactfully.
Xiao Ran came to Su Xiaoxiao and asked, "I'll invite Yang Qi and Tang Ze to come tomorrow, okay?"
"It's your place, and you're inviting guests. You can call whoever you want!"
"Shouldn't I tell you in advance? If you agree, I'll call them. If you don't agree, I'll naturally listen to you!"
Su Xiaoxiao was amused by Xiao Ran's cautious look.
"Will Master Yang and Master Tang be angry if they knew you treated them like this?"
She suspected that Yang Qi and Tang Ze would kill Xiao Ran with a knife if they knew about this.
Xiao Ran looked at him with disdain.
"Hey, what are they angry about? They haven't been able to get free food and drinks at Fenglai Restaurant. So what if they skip a meal?"
"Okay, just make the arrangements as you see fit."
Yang Qi and Tang Ze, who were waiting for Xiao Ran at Youfenglai Restaurant, sneezed twice for no apparent reason.
"Yang Qi, is anyone scolding us?"
Yang Qi rubbed his nose, "Who knows! Maybe it was that brat Xiao Ran!"
"That's hard to say! Ever since this guy fell in love with Miss Su, he's been staying at Su's Noodle House all day, and he hasn't even come back to the restaurant to keep us company!"
"Hey, you don't know this! This is a typical example of putting love before friendship!"
