Fairy Tail: Collapsing Stars-Chapter 735: Who came knocking ?

" Are you trying to rebel!" Old madam Su was very unhappy when she heard her daughter-in-law show no face to her, she looked at the woman who was acting like she was in charge of the family and couldn't help herself from scolding madam Su, " What are you showing off for in front of my son? Just because you brought a handful of rice from your maternal family, you think that you can do anything?"

Madam Su was no longer scared of the old woman who was now relying on her to survive and sniggered, " Of course I am going to show off, if you have the guts and means then you go and get yourself a handful of rice mother, do you think that it is easy for me? I am a woman with a husband yet I am asking for rice from my father and brother! I have no face left because of you all."

At this moment Madam Su completely forgot that she was the one who would bring the biggest package to her family when the Su family was reached and that she has subsidised her family for a very long time from the money that she got from the Su family.

Under constant stress and pressure from her mother-in-law and husband, she totally gave up on her persona as a delicate woman who couldn't even raise her voice, they were on the verge of starving to death…her son's studies has been ruined and she has lost every bit of savings she had while filling this greedy pit. Now she did not even have enough money to marry her daughter who was getting old day by day, if this goes on then she will surely watch her daughter become an old spinster.

Just thinking about it was enough to make Madam Su taste a fishy taste in her mouth as she glared at her husband. " You said that you will be able to get a job this month what happened? It has been almost one and a half months, you haven't gotten a job till now, don't tell me you are going to ask me to bring more rice from my maternal family. My father is not a landlord who will subsidise the family of a daughter who has been married off."

"Ptui, what are you screaming for you bitch!" Old madam Su was extremely doting when it came to her son, when she saw that Madam Su was actually screaming at her son, she immediately tossed her chopsticks at madam Su and spat on her face. " You think that we don't know that all these years you have been subsidising your family? Do I need to count how many fabric bolts, good food and rare medicines you have sent to your maternal family …as for money..hehe that is even more, I can assure you that if not for your shamelessness, our family's savings would not be so pitiful. It's you who have harmed my family and now you want to act shamelessly with me? I am telling you that there is no chance!"

No sooner did Old madam Su said those words Madam Su's face turned pale in anger, she did not expect that Old madam Su who was so old would be this sharp when it came to detecting that something was off, she bit her lips and then lowered her head. Seeing that Madam Su was no longer fighting with her Old madam Su snorted unhappily, " Don't even think about going against me, I am telling you…if you dare to go against me I will have you thrown to your maternal family and take all the things that you have given them in return. Don't you think that I cannot control you just because I no longer have as much money as I used to or else I am going to turn your face into that of an ugly toad?"

After she was done speaking she turned to look at Su Bai and smiled patiently, " Don't worry you take as much time as you want to look for a new job there is no need for you to worry about anything at all."

Su Bai hummed but he did not say anything, he was really upset with what his wife said after all, this was the woman for whom he offended the Shen family and even received so many beatings but now that he did not the same amount of money as he did when he married her, he thought that his wife was different from other women and thus, he was very doting on madam Su but now she was scolding him day and night, how can he be not dissatisfied?

But even though he was angry, he did not say anything and simply stared at his wife who finally lowered her head and continued to sip on her porridge, even though she lowered her head, Su Bai could see that Madam Su was not reconciled, which was why Su Bai's face twisted even further and then he bit his lips in anger, wishing he could teach Madam Su a good lesson for acting out of the line.

However, just as he was thinking about this, there was a knock on the wooden surface of his house.

" Who might be knocking on our door at this time?" Old madam Su asked as she looked at her son who shrugged his shoulders. They all looked at the door with wary expressions on their face before Su Bai turned to look at his son and said, " Did you borrow money from someone else this time ?"

The matter of Su Yu Cheng borrowing money from the loan sharks could not be hidden and was found out by the Su family who had to sell more than half of their lands to fill the pit that Su Yu Cheng has made for them.

" No, I did not!" Su Yu Cheng shook his head at once, ever since his father beat him up, he did not dare to even think about going to gamble how was he supposed to borrow from loan sharks?
