Chapter 489: Really So Rich
Liu Sanle was so frightened that he quickly pinched Fang Lan's philtrum and shouted, "Mom, I hope nothing happens to you!"
After a lot of tossing and turning, Fang Lan finally woke up.
Liu Sanle finally saw what was in the box. "Mom, it's just a few drops of blood. Why did you faint?"
Fang Lan shook her head and trembled, pointing at the half finger on the ground and said, "Son, that's your father's finger!
I'm going to fight these bastards."
Liu Sanle stopped Fang Lan who was stumbling out and said, "Mom, stop making trouble. How can we fight them?
Even if we sacrifice the lives of the three of us, we still can't defeat them.
No, I have to consult with my eldest and second brothers about this matter."
After Liu Sanle invited his eldest and second brothers, they surprisingly said the same thing: they had no money to redeem the person, and they had already separated the family business, and they did not get a penny of the money earned from the shop.
After saying this, no matter how Liu Sanle tried to keep him, his eldest and second brothers were determined to leave.
Liu Sanle's eldest brother said to Liu Sanle earnestly, "Third brother, you are the most capable one in our family now, and you are given the most money by our parents on weekdays. You should pay attention to our father's affairs!
My brothers are incompetent and I'm afraid they can't help at all!"
Liu Sanle stamped his feet as he watched their backs. "Mom, if you let them go like this, what will happen to my dad?"
"What else can we do? Let's find a solution! Your eldest brother is right. Your father and I love you the most. We've given you all the money we've earned. If you don't contribute, who will?"
"Mom, what you said is right. When the family was divided, my eldest and second brothers took away a lot of things!
They don't care about my father, so I'm going to give it back to them now."
Fang Lan held him back, "Son, stop making trouble. The things your eldest and second brothers got are what they deserve."
Your two sisters-in-law embroider day and night, and your two brothers are also busy on weekdays. They work harder than any of the tenants in our house.
Forget it, forget it, let’s go back to the county town and see how much silver that dead girl Mengxiang can be sold for. If that doesn’t work, we’ll just sell our land!
Anyway, your father and I have three sons. If it really doesn't work out, your father and I will take turns living in our sons' homes.
Then you won’t be able to kick us out of the house.”
Liu Sanle glared at Fang Lan and said, "Don't even think about it. Let's split the money from Mengxiang's sale into 30% and 70% respectively. I'll take 70% and you'll take 30%."
Fang Lan wanted to argue again, but Liu Sanle just started to play dirty. "I won't sell her anymore. She's carrying my baby, and I don't want to sell her anymore."
Fang Lan gritted her teeth and said, "I'll listen to you. 30% to 70%. Oh, my sons and daughters are all debts. When the time comes, not a single one of them can be of any use."
Liu Sanle had already lost his patience. "If you don't shut up, don't go back to the county with me. I won't care about my father's affairs anymore."
Fang Lan was still pointing at Liu Sanle, but she quickly shut up.
The two of them rushed back to their home in the county town. As soon as Liu Sanle entered the house, he shouted, "Xiang'er, I'm hungry, hurry up and prepare dinner.
Put more meat and oil in the dishes. The food I had today was bland and tasteless. I have no taste in my mouth at all."
Liu Sanle talked so much, but no one responded to him.
He raised his voice and shouted again, but still no one responded.
He panicked and quickly pushed Fang Lan away and ran into the house. There was no one in the house, even the two servants had disappeared.
Liu Sanle was so frightened that he broke out in a sweat. He ran to the place where he usually kept the silver and money, opened the box and took a look, but there was no trace of the silver, and even the indentures of the two servants were gone.
Liu Sanle hurriedly called for his mother. Fang Lan was anxious when she saw that the duck she had caught flew away. Her mouth was not idle either, and she cursed Mengxiang's ancestors for eight generations.
"Mom, what's the point of you cursing? Mengxiang isn't her real name. It's all in vain."
"What should we do? We can't just throw everything away! How about we report it to the police?"
When Liu Sanle heard the report to the police, he felt weak all over. Lord Chen Ren had not left his post yet, but he had already left a bad impression on Lord Chen.
If he reported the matter to the police again because of the missing concubine, Lord Chen Ren would not know what to think of him.
After all, he was a scholar and a person of status in Shunhe County.
"Mom, we can't report it to the police. Let's go out and look for him!"
"How do I find it in such a huge county?"
Fang Lan yelled that she wanted to report the matter to the police, but Liu Sanle refused, and the mother and daughter almost got into a fight over this matter.
Liu Sanle was a ruthless man who didn't recognize any relatives. He glared at Fang Lan and said, "If you report this to the authorities, I will no longer recognize you as my mother."
Fang Lan's legs went limp from Liu Sanle's glare. She nodded repeatedly in response, "If they don't allow us to report it to the police, then we won't."
The mother and daughter were like headless flies, asking everyone they met on the street, but no one paid any attention to them after asking for a long time.
Just when the two were feeling discouraged, someone among the passersby suddenly said, "I feel like I've seen this person you're talking about somewhere."
Where? "
"Let me think about it!"
Fang Lan and Liu Sanle both held their breath and waited for this person in silence.
"I remember now that the man you were talking about seemed to have appeared near the Shengxia Soap Shop. Yes, that's where it was.
Otherwise, how could I remember it so clearly? The woman was crying bitterly, saying nasty things, and even spat at the Summer Soap Shop.
Liu Sanle confirmed again and again that this person insisted on what he said and repeatedly stated that he was not wrong.
"Aren't you guys in a hurry to find someone? Go look over there, maybe you can find him."
Liu Sanle and Fang Lan hesitated. Why did Mengxiang go to Shengxia Soap Shop and curse?
Liu Sanle pushed Fang Lan and said, "Mom, why don't you go for a walk..."
Fang Lan thought about the money Mengxiang could sell, and she made up her mind, "Let's go, son, you come with me."
"I'm not good at this. It's inconvenient..."
"What's the inconvenience? When you were little, you called each other brother and sister. Let's go. Then we can shamelessly ask Zhang Juexia for some money.
Her mother and I have been sisters for many years. Now that I'm in trouble, she can't just give me no face at all! "
Fang Lan didn't allow Liu Sanle to refuse and pulled him forward, "Son, be frank. You are single now. Although she is married, how can her man compare to you? Maybe she still has feelings for you!"
If you two are attracted to each other, we won't have to look for Mengxiang anymore. With Zhang Juexia's current ability, she can afford even five thousand taels of silver, let alone one thousand taels."
"Mom, Zhang Juexia, is she really that rich?"
