Chapter 104 I Think You Deserve It
Qu Aihua endured and endured, thinking, you think I don't want to say it directly, what a dead old woman, if it weren't for the child in her belly, she wouldn't bother to get involved, so she didn't waste any more words and went straight to the point: "That depends on what price you can offer Chuxue?"
Mrs. Liu frowned: "What do you mean by that?"
Qu Aihua rolled her eyes and said, "Of course you have to show your sincerity. Can you make them give in just by saying a few soft words?"
Mrs. Liu stood up from the edge of the kang and asked, "What?"
Before he could finish the rest of the sentence, he was stopped by Old Man Liu who had been silent the whole time: "What Granddaughter-in-law said makes sense. Chuxue's temper is even tougher than before. We are also in the wrong about Shanliang's leg injury. If we still want to use our status as elders to pressure others like before, I'm afraid it will backfire."
Without waiting for Granny Liu to say anything, Old Man Liu made the final decision: "Aihua, if your grandmother and I go out at this time, I'm afraid there will be no good results. Jianqiang is a man who can't talk, so I think you should take the trouble to go over there."
Qu Aihua was naturally unwilling, but since it had come to this, she had no choice but to agree: "Okay, I'll go over there and treat it as visiting my second uncle, but it's not good to go empty-handed."
Mrs. Liu looked unhappy, but she knew that now was not the time to get angry: "Our house was robbed a few days ago, so there is no good stuff here. Ask Jianqiang to dig two radishes from the pit in the corner of the backyard and bring them with him."
Qu Aihua's expression immediately changed: "The radish is so rotten that it can be used to feed pigs. You want me to take it to the second room?
Grandma, do you want me to go over and beg for help, or do you want them to kick me out? If you want to beg for help, you have to act like one. It's time now, can you please stop messing around?"
Old Man Liu also thought that the old woman was brainless: "Okay, go get ten eggs."
Granny Liu glared at Qu Aihua and opened the cabinet with a look of pain on her face: "This is a gift from my nephew. See if they can eat it to death."
He cursed as he took the eggs out, but when he got only half of the eggs, he suddenly started to cry: "Why am I so miserable? Most of my life savings were stolen by some short-lived ghost. I couldn't bear to eat the eggs my nephew gave me as a gift, but now I have to give them to that debt collector."
The faces of the people in the room looked very unhappy, and their memories suddenly went back to that morning.
Since there are no young children in the family, the eggs at home are used not only to nourish the old couple, but also to give the pregnant granddaughter-in-law a boiled egg every day.
That day, Mrs. Liu opened the cupboard to get eggs early in the morning as usual, but she thought she was dazzled: "Old man, come here quickly, why can't I see anything in the cupboard?"
Old Man Liu didn't want to pay attention to her at first, but then he heard the old woman muttering, "Is there something wrong with my eyes?"
He lightened his body casually and stood in a position where he could see the whole cabinet, which was empty.
He took a few steps forward, confirmed that he was not seeing things, and shouted: "Where is the thing?"
Everyone in each room ran in when they heard the noise, and after finding out the reason, they were all dumbfounded.
The Liu family was in chaos for a while, and soon Ge Xiulan also started shouting: "Which Tiansha touched my things?"
Then the third child came over and said, "Dad, Mom, go check it out. The kitchen has also been emptied."
Just as this was over, the voice of Liu Ruhua, the eldest daughter of the family, came from the other side: "Oh no, our chickens have also been stolen."
Old Man Liu shouted anxiously, "Old Third, go to the cellar and check."
But after a while, Liu Lao San came back and said, "Dad, it's empty. The cellar is empty too."
Mrs. Liu didn't have time to cry anymore. She stood up and started cursing, saying all kinds of ugly words. Soon, the outside of the Liu family's house was surrounded by people watching the fun.
Liu Shanling quickly found the village cadres, but they couldn't figure out the situation, so they had to ask someone to report to the police.
But after checking and questioning, the public security comrades had no idea at all, and there was no trace of theft. For example, the lock of the cabinet in the old couple's room was not even pried open. What kind of thief could have such ability?
In the end, no conclusion was reached.
Fortunately, Old Man Liu was smart enough to store some food in the cellar of the shabby yard of his ancestral home, which solved the urgent problem.
When close relatives or in-laws heard the news, they also sent some things over, so that the Liu family would not go hungry.
Before she could recover from the shock, something like this happened again. How could Mrs. Liu bear it?
The second roommate who lived in the same courtyard naturally heard the noise over there. Mother Liu looked at her little daughter in confusion: "Xiao, what's going on?"
Chunxiao glanced outside the yard, and then vividly recounted what had happened that morning.
Mother Liu was shocked: "You mean your grandma's money was stolen?"
Chunxiao said with a gloating look on her face: "It's not just my grandma's money, the eldest wife's private money was also stolen. You didn't see it, my aunt cried even more miserably than my grandma."
Chuxue naturally understood why. Ge Xiulan had long regarded the public money as the property of their eldest wife, so she was naturally sad.
Father Liu frowned and said, "How many people did it take to empty the cellar?"
Chun Xiao curled her lips and said, "I think he deserves it."
Father Liu disagreed: "What nonsense are you talking about?"
Chunxiao retorted, "I'm not talking nonsense. We clearly had food stored somewhere else, but when the family was divided, we were only given enough to last for a few months. Isn't that what we deserve?"
Chuxue then asked, "Chunxiao, what do you mean by that?"
Chun Xiao said angrily, "After our house was robbed, Grandpa secretly took my eldest uncle and third uncle to the old house at night. I saw them bringing back a lot of food with a wheelbarrow."
After these words were spoken, Father Liu felt even colder.
Mother Liu suddenly said, "Chuxue, do you think your grandparents will set their sights on you?"
Several people looked at Hatsuyuki at the same time.
Chu Xue's lips curled up into an evil smile: "That's why I wanted to build a house."
Chunxiao didn't know what happened before: "Second sister, what are you talking about? Where did our family get the money to build a house?"
She was a little confused. She couldn't even afford the money to treat her father's leg before, but now she had money to build a house?
Mother Liu pulled her little girl over and explained to her in a low voice.
Chunxiao's eyes sparkled after hearing this: "Second sister, really, can our family pay off the debt? Can we still have money left to build a house?"
Chuxue smiled at her and nodded: "Yes."
The little girl jumped up excitedly: "That's great, second sister you are so awesome."
I don't know what he thought of, but he suddenly stopped and said, "Second sister, what about this house we just divided?"
Father and Mother Liu also looked at Chuxue.
Chu Xue pointed to the house next door and said, "My third uncle is definitely going to grab this house. Don't worry, even if he doesn't want it, as long as the price is right, those in the village who are short of houses will be tempted."
Chunxiao said with a worried look on her face: "But with our grandma's noisy nature, who else would dare to marry her?"
Chu Xue pinched her cheek and said, "There are many people in the village who are not afraid of trouble. Who would be afraid of her for the sake of the interests of the relationship? Don't worry."
Good night
