Chapter 717: The Consequences of Gambling (1)
On this side, Aunt Li and Lin Xiu'er were beating Li Hao, while on the other side, Uncle Li came to Ji Xiao's side with a sigh.
"Little girl, I'm sorry." Uncle Li said sadly, but Little Girl Ji shook her head. "Dad, you're right. You're thinking about Big Brother for his own good."
"He is so disappointing now and has become addicted to gambling because he was exposed to new things all of a sudden and was dazzled by the colorful world outside, so he got deeply involved in it." Ji Xiaomu said, "Dad, this store is not suitable for my brother to stay any longer."
Uncle Li nodded and said, "I'll take them home."
"Brother, you can go back, but sister-in-law has to stay and help me." Ji Xiaowu said with a smile, "I think sister-in-law is very suitable to manage it. She knows that brother has done something wrong, and she didn't try to cover it up for him. Instead, she kept a record of every penny. If it weren't for sister-in-law's account book, I might not know how much brother has borrowed."
"My dear, I am sorry for you. I am too embarrassed to stay here." Lin Xiu'er said ashamedly, "I failed to stop Li Hao, and I don't know what to do..."
"Sister-in-law, you still stick to your original intention under such circumstances. I feel very touched." Ji Xiaomu said seriously, "If it were someone else in this situation, it is very likely that the couple helped to cook the accounts together, and I would never find out if you didn't tell me."
"This is what I should do." Lin Xiu'er shook her head. She felt that this was what she should do and was not worthy of Ji Xiaomu's praise.
"Sister-in-law, seriously, I still want you to help me manage this store." Mother Ji said, and Lin Xiu'er looked at Li Hao worriedly.
"I'm afraid he will do it again, and if I'm alone, he will still treat me like he did today, and I can't stop him." Lin Xiu'er said seriously.
"That's easy. Sister-in-law, you still manage the store. I will send someone else to collect the money. If someone else is in charge of the money, even if brother comes to you, he won't be able to get the money." Mother Ji thought for a moment and suggested.
"That's a good idea!" Aunt Li nodded in agreement and took Aunt Ji's hand. "Auntie, I really don't know how to apologize to you. You can deal with this bastard however you want. Your father and I will have no objection. We don't want to lose heart with you because of this bastard."
"What your aunt said is what I mean. You will always be our daughter." Uncle Li also spoke.
"It would be a shame to break up with you guys because of my elder brother, but my elder brother owes me two hundred and eighty taels! Sister-in-law, you can't pay it back for him, your money is for Hu Zi!" Ji Xiaomu said to Lin Xiu'er seriously, "You must not give my elder brother a penny."
"I promise you, I will never give him money!" Lin Xiu'er said seriously, looking at Li Hao with a wary look.
"If you want to help your brother quit his gambling addiction, you have to let him know how harmful gambling is." Ji Xiaomu looked at Li Hao. Li Hao had a dejected look on his face, but it seemed that he felt that he was unlucky rather than knowing that gambling was harmful.
"Auntie, what do you have in mind?" Uncle Li and Aunt Li knew how harmful gambling could be to people. They also knew that it was very difficult for people who were addicted to gambling to quit.
"Let Big Brother go to work in the casino." Ji Xiaomu said with a smile, "If he wants to gamble, then let him take a good look at how gambling is done in the casino and what the consequences will be for gamblers!"
"That's a good idea! Let him go! If he can't quit gambling, I'd rather not have this son!" Aunt Li absolutely cannot tolerate gambling, even if it's her own son.
