After Transmigrating, I'm Everyone's Darling

Li Yun, a rural woman from the 21st century, had a car accident. Her soul transmigrated to the body of a woman in ancient times who shared the same name.

Her home was bare, but she wasn't...

Chapter 37: Slandering Chen Mo

"Sister-in-law, what are you talking about? What silver did you steal? When my parents were alive, what kind of family situation did they have? Everyone in Qingshan Village knows it. If my parents had silver, wouldn't they use it to build a house for you to live in? That's why you have to live in that kind of house and live that kind of life. My parents treat my eldest brother like a treasure. If they had silver, they would make him suffer." At this time, Chen Mo stood up and said. He really didn't understand why his parents were so partial. Partiality was fine, but now that his life was better, his eldest brother's family wanted to slander him.

Chen Mo's words were heard by the villagers who came to watch the fun, and they looked at Chen Yan's family with indignation.

"That's right, Chen Mo is right. His parents really favor his eldest brother's family. When the family was divided, I was there. I saw that what he gave to Chen Mo and Chen Yan were really worlds apart." Villager A couldn't stand it anymore and told them about the family division.

"I was at the scene, and it was true. They have no shame in coming here to slander the honest Chen Mo. Seeing that others are living a good life, they want to take it for themselves. I have never seen such a person." Villager B also came out to accuse Jinhua's family.

"That's right, he's rich, what does it have to do with her? She's so shameless." Villager C also came out to criticize.

Seeing that the results were different from what they expected, Chen Dagou became anxious.

"How do you know that this silver belongs to him and not the money left to my family by my grandfather? Are you in the same group? Did my second uncle promise you any benefits?" Chen Dagou angrily accused these nosy villagers.

"That's right, what my boss said is absolutely right, you are all in the same group, just to seize the money from our family. Great! I didn't expect you to be so dirty. Let me tell you, this is illegal. I will go to the county government to sue you for conspiring to seize the money from our family." Jin Yue, like Chen Dagou, turned the tables in order to get the money from his second uncle's family.

"You are talking nonsense. It is obvious that you are the ones who want to seize the money of Chen Mo's family, and you make yourselves sound so right." The villagers were also enraged. They came out to tell the truth, but they were all slandered.

While the two sides were arguing fiercely, the village chief came over.

"Quiet! Quiet! Everyone, be quiet!" The village chief shouted at the villagers to be quiet.

The noisy atmosphere turned into complete silence in seconds.

Seeing that the villagers had quieted down, the village chief said, "What's going on? Can anyone tell me?"

"Village chief, this is what happened. Jinhua came over and made a big fuss, saying that Chen Mo stole her family's silver..." Villager A told the village chief everything that had just happened.

"Jinhua, is this really the case?" The village chief was furious after hearing the whole story. He had disagreed with Chen Yan's parents' decision when they divided the family property; it was truly excessive. Chen Mo had agreed, so as the village chief, he had no choice but to divide the family property accordingly. Now that Chen Mo was rich, he was trying to seize their money. He was truly inhumane.

"Village chief, he is half right, and half is fabricated. You can't just side with my second uncle because he has money. I tell you, this is illegal. This money was left to my family by my parents-in-law, and it was stolen by my second uncle." Jinhua talked nonsense to the village chief.

"Chen Yan, you think so too. You think that the money of Chen Mo's family was left to you by your parents." The village chief did not answer Jinhua's words, but just kept looking at Chen Yan with contempt in his eyes.

Chen Yan was so angry at the village chief's gaze that he stammered, "Village chief, I... I... it was left to me by my parents."

Chen Yan kept saying "I" for a long time, but was glared at by Jinhua. He immediately closed his eyes and said that it was the money left to him by his parents.

The village chief didn't expect that Chen Yan would still say such words without conscience.

The village chief looked at Chen Yan with such stern eyes that Chen Yan dared not look him in the eye.

"Girl Li, do you have anything to say?" The village chief looked at Li Yun and spoke to her in a kind voice.

"My aunt has always said that my silver is hers and was stolen by my father-in-law. I just want to ask, where is your silver hidden? Are there any marks? Is there any way to prove that it is yours?" Li Yun looked at her uncle's family in silence. How could there be such a powerful relative in the world, and she happened to meet him.

"I don't care. Anyway, this silver was left to me by my parents-in-law. We didn't know that my second uncle would steal the silver, so why would he mark it in advance?" Jinhua thought for a long time but couldn't think of how to prove it, so she could only make excuses.

"Since you can't prove that the silver is yours, you are slandering my father-in-law. I will go to the government office to sue you." Li Yun didn't care about her nonsense and went straight to sue her for defamation.

When Jinhua heard that they were going to sue her, she immediately felt uneasy. She had just said that she was going to go to the county government office to sue Chen Mo, but she was just trying to scare him. They were originally trying to extort money, and if they went to the county government office, it would not be able to withstand the investigation. They would soon find out that her parents-in-law had no money to leave for them, and they would be punished with a beating at the very least, or even jail at the worst.

"I don't care. Anyway, this money was left to me by my father-in-law to be the head of the family. I don't want all of it back. Just consider it as a share of my parents-in-law's money. How about half each? You give half of the money to my family, and half of the land to my family as well." Jinhua knew that if she continued like this, she would soon be exposed, so she decisively asked for half.

"Wow! Where did you get this white letter? We will give you half of the silver and land, and you dare to ask for such a high price," Li Yun thought to himself.

"Aunt, since you keep saying that the silver was left by your parents-in-law, you should know how much silver, banknotes, and land there are, right?" Li Yun would not indulge her and think that they would split it in half. That was wishful thinking. Why should she give the silver she had worked so hard to earn to these ungrateful people?

"Well... well... how should I know? My parents-in-law didn't say anything at the time. They just left us some silver and land." Jinhua hadn't expected Li Yun to say that. She had originally thought her honest uncle would give her half, but now that Li Yun had been messing around, she was at a loss for words. She could only say this and that. With no excuses to offer, she resorted to nagging.

When Jinhua said this, the villagers understood what she meant. She was after Chen Mo's family's money and wanted to take it for herself.

The village chief was even more furious. He couldn't say anything about the silver. After all, he had heard from Chen Mo that it was the silver before Li Yatou lost her memory. He was the one who personally handled the land, so didn't he know?

"Auntie, you can't prove the silver and the land, but I can. Some of the silver was buried by me, and some of it was obtained through cooperation with the Huimin Saloon in the county. Do you want us to go to the county and confront Manager Wu in person?

As for the land, it is even simpler. The names of Chen Wen, Chen Wu and Chen Fang are written on these deeds. My father-in-law and the village chief went to get the deeds together. Those lands are wasteland and have never been sold. Those fertile fields have also not been sold and are all registered in the county government.

I wonder how many years of imprisonment you'll receive for falsely claiming imperial land?" Li Yun confirmed the origins of the silver and land, and kindly reminded Jinhua that falsely claiming imperial land would result in imprisonment.
