Chapter 909: Divide and conquer

Su Wan usually did not scheme against someone like this but it was the Lai family who tried to cause trouble for her first. They tried to plot against her, such that her reputation would be ruined, if she was not fortunate enough to have her husbands then she would have died in a manner she wouldn"t even know.

How could she not make such a family bleed? They needed to bleed and suffer for what they had done to her.

There was no way she was going to hold back!

With that thought in her head, she looked at Second Madam Lai and smirked slyly before saying, " You are the head of the second branch of the Lai family but you still have to rely on your sister to live a comfortable life. Your daughter, son-in-law and you, yourself have to lower your head and suck up to your sister every day, only then can you live a proper life."

" You were the one who had given up your position such that your sister could live an easy life and what do you get in return? You had to act like a slave all your life. What is the difference between you and the maid who works for your sister?"

With a voice similar to that of a Devil"s temptation, Su Wan said to Second Madam Lai, " Don"t you want to live a life where you wouldn"t have to listen to others while trying to think twice before doing anything? If you listen to me then I will make sure that you will be able to escape with a decent sum of money."

Though Second Madam Lai had indeed annoyed her a little when she came to find trouble with her, if she worked for her honestly then Su Wan might give her a chance to survive.

Second Madam Lai was indeed tempted when she heard Su Wan"s words because what she said was indeed right. Throughout her life, she had listened to her elder sister and waited for her to hand over the money for her daily use but even then the money had never surpa.s.sed two hundred taels.

This was the reason why she had to lower her head and cajole her sister because she wanted to get more money from her.

If her elder sister was coaxed then she would hand her a few taels which would help her daughter and son-in-law. If not for the fact that her sister was like this, she would have never had an affair with her eldest sister"s husband. She had to do it because she wanted to survive!

She could not help but say, " But will my sister agree? I mean my brother-in-law might have done something but he is not cheap is he?"

Su Wan looked at him and then smiled politely, " Isn"t he? He was the one who attacked a woman, a married one at that, in front of everyone. He even touched her in unspeakable places and let others watch a show, what kind of cla.s.sy act is this if it"s not cheap?"

" Think of it as stepping on your sister and the Lai family who treated your branch lightly after the death of your husband."

" I am sure that fourth Lai must have found trouble with you in the past thus it"s only right that he gets humiliated."

Well, he did humiliate her a lot.

In the past, he used to call her a jinx star and scolded her for killing his second brother.

Seeing that Second Madam Lai was more or less convinced, Su Wan added, " Listen to me Madam Lai, being unreasonable and thinking about yourself is better than nothing. You can think that what I am saying is not right but the truth is that if you don"t listen to me then you can forget about surviving."

" Do you think that your sister will support you till the end? You might not know this but the Lai family"s wealth is slowly declining as the new generation is not that smart which is something that you might know."

" Your sister knows this as well but did she hand you, your share of wealth? She didn"t right. Despite knowing that the wealth of her family is slowly decreasing, she still keeps all the money in the common funds. Have you never thought about how your second branch also deserves a few shops? The one that your husband owned when he was alive? What happened to their shares?

They all are being eaten by your sister and her family. Your second branch only has three members, so why should you share your sum of money with the rest of the Lai family who have tons of children and grandchildren?"

She gave Second Madam Lai a meaningful expression and then said in a low voice, " The truth is, your sister does not treat you well. In fact, she is fooling you. She is taking tons of money from the shops that belong to you and your daughter and only giving a small chunk of it. If you do not believe me go and have a look at your shop.

You will get a basic understanding of how much sum of money you should be getting."

When Second Madam Lai heard Su Wan"s words she did not want to believe it but when she saw Su Wan"s confident expression, her heart could not help but shake. Her sister said to her that the shops were not working well and thus they did not earn much from those shops.

But what if… she played her like a fool as well?

A sudden quake happened in her heart and she immediately got up from the couch and then rushed out of the house. The Lin husbands watch her go before turning to look at Su Wan.

Lin Jing asked, " How do you know that the shops of the second master of the Lai family are doing good?"

" Do you think that the Old Lady of the Lai family is so soft-hearted that she would raise three good for nothings? She is only keeping them with her because there is a benefit," Su Wan had a good understanding of that woman as she had faced many like Old Madam Lai in her past life!
