Chapter 170 No Heirloom
Li Juan covered her mouth and exclaimed: "No way... there is no heirloom at all!"
This is the only possibility.
But Xu Lai Di didn't want to believe it.
How could it be gone? Old Lady Liu said with certainty that the things inside were very precious heirlooms.
Su Fang also looked surprised, but her surprise was partly acted.
"I thought it was strange. If there really is a family heirloom, it doesn't seem like the two people in the Liu family would make their lives miserable just for the heirloom."
Bai Yunjiao: "Yeah, if that's the case, then wouldn't the Liu family be deceiving their marriage?"
Song Wei threw a melon seed into his mouth and said quietly, "It's like a pie falling from the sky. This pie might be a discus, the kind that can kill people."
But the idiot deserved to be smashed to death.
Xu Laidi's heart completely collapsed. She ran out angrily with a red face.
Song Wei and the old ladies looked at each other and followed without thinking.
"Wait, I want to go too."
Others are certainly not far behind.
The village is so boring. There are no mobile phones to play with in those days. Except when working in the fields, you have to find entertainment for yourself at other times.
Eating melons is addictive in such a boring place.
Xu Lai Di ran hurriedly in front, with a group of people following behind her.
When passers-by asked what was going on, the old ladies slapped their thighs.
"Something happened. There was no heirloom in Xu Zhiqing's box. It was empty!"
Wow, now more people joined the spectator group and followed Xu Laidi to the bachelor Liu’s house.
At this time, Old Lady Liu was still talking to a few people who were on good terms with her.
"My Dakang will have to get married in the future. Although Xu Zhiqing is not very pretty, she is still a woman after all. It will be enough if she can carry on the Liu family's bloodline."
"Mrs. Liu!"
Xu Laidi pushed open the dilapidated door and rushed in.
When Old Lady Liu saw her eyes flash, she quickly put on a smile and walked towards her.
"Why is Xu Zhiqing here? The house is not cleaned up yet. If you had told me you were coming earlier, I would have cleaned it up."
Xu Lai Di threw the box at her feet.
"There is no heirloom in here at all, you lied to me!"
Hearing this, Old Lady Liu's expression changed: "Xu Zhiqing, you can't wrongly accuse me. I packed the things in there, and my son also knows about it. How could our family heirloom be a lie?"
"That's just an empty box, there's nothing inside. The heartless people in your family are just trying to trick me into marrying into your Liu family!"
"What? How is this possible?!"
Old Lady Liu picked up the box on the ground, and when she saw that there was nothing inside, she immediately put her hands on her hips and started yelling.
"Xu Zhiqing, you are so unkind. You took our ancestral treasure but didn't want to marry my son, so you did this. You are so heartless."
"The ancestral treasure of my Liu family is a baby-sized safety lock. It has been there since Dakang's grandfather's grandfather. It was given to the daughter-in-law after she got married. We hope to give birth to a grandson and then put the safety lock around the boy's neck. When the boy grows up, we will take it off and keep it for the next generation..."
Old Lady Liu spoke very convincingly, and even said that there was a word "Liu" on the safety lock.
This made many simple-minded villagers believe it.
"You're talking nonsense. There's nothing in there."
Xu Lai Di hurried to defend herself, but compared to Liu Laonian's well-reasoned arguments, her defense seemed much paler.
Old Lady Liu took advantage of the victory and continued: "I think you regret agreeing to marry my son, and you want to covet our Liu family's ancestral treasure, so you did this. Bah... I tell you it's impossible. Either marry my son or return my Liu family's ancestral treasure to me!"
"No, that would be a huge loss for our Liu family. That is a treasure that has been passed down for generations. Why did you take it away? You must return it."
The villagers discussed enthusiastically: "It turned out to be a safety lock. I heard that safety locks are made of gold or silver. They are very expensive."
“Hush hush… You can’t sell these things now, but since they’ve been passed down from my ancestors, they should be fine.”
"One of them said there was nothing inside, and the other said there was. Who is telling the truth?"
"I think it's probably Xu Zhiqing who is lying. She must have regretted marrying the bachelor Liu, but she doesn't want to return the Liu family's heirloom either. After all, it's not the first or second time that she has stolen things. In the past..."
As everyone was talking, they went over all the things Xu Lai Di had done in the past. It was not the first time that Xu Lai Di had stolen something and then blamed it on others.
Credit is really an amazing thing.
Xu Laidi's credibility is really low among the villagers, so now, most of them believe what Liu Laoniang says.
There is no mistake in the poem, post, content, and read the book on 6, 9, and bar!
Some people think that there is no heirloom at all, but they will not stand up to speak for Xu Laidi.
Xu Lai Di was anxious and pointed at the people in the Youth House: "This box was originally empty. If you don't believe me, ask them. They all know it."
The educated youths who were eating melons and suddenly had the melon hanging over their heads: …………
You guys can quarrel if you want, but why are you involving innocent people? Gao Le, who was standing at the front, jumped back a long way as if a spring had been installed on his feet.
Zhao Su also quickly hid behind the old ladies.
"Don't look at me, I don't know."
The other educated youth also took two steps back, their expressions showing a hint of fear.
Xu Lai Di's expression was distorted with anger at their reaction.
"You guys, I am also an educated youth, and we are all one. If you don't help me, are you just going to watch them deceive and slander me?"
Song Wei grinned and said, "Don't count on me. The relationship between you and me is just that of an enemy."
She tapped her cheek meaningfully.
Xu Laidi's face suddenly turned red.
Gao Le: "I don't know you well, not at all."
Liu Linlin rolled her eyes: "We are all educated youth, so what? We are not your parents who take care of your eating, drinking, defecating and urinating. Even your biological parents don't care."
Didn't they just get wrongly accused of being thieves? Do they really look so mean that they come to help you right after being wrongly accused?
Bai Yunjiao said softly: "I'm so sorry, I don't know anything, I won't lie."
Li Juan also waved her hands quickly: "I... I don't know either. After all, it was just an empty box when you showed it to us."
They tell it like it is.
Xu Lai Di caught on to what Li Juan said and said, "You heard it too. She was talking about the empty box."
Li Juan: …………
What I mean is that when you showed it to us, it was just an empty box. Can you please tell us the whole story?
Old Lady Liu mocked: "Xu Zhiqing, what nonsense are you talking about? What Li Zhiqing said meant that you showed her an empty box. I think you took the thing out and hid it before showing it to them."
"I don't have any. This is really empty. There is no heirloom. Believe me!"
