Chapter 30: No one was home yesterday afternoon, how did it get robbed?
Old Man Liu took his last puff and said while knocking off the ash, "Based on what happened today, do you think the second son's wife can compromise? Rather than causing unrest in the family in the future, it would be better to separate them early and save them from being a burden to the family."
Granny Liu looked disapproving, "Since Chuxue is about to graduate, can't we wait a few more months? Didn't we agree before that her betrothal money would be used to help Dongzi get married?"
Old Man Liu put his pipe on his waist and said, "How can you take all the good things? We didn't take a penny from the second son's medical treatment. Do you think the second house will let you touch that money? Besides, didn't the eldest son and his wife say that Dongzi has a job? There will be many good girls who want to marry Dongzi by then. Are you afraid that you won't be able to marry a good one?"
After hearing this, Mrs. Liu felt much better: "That's right, our Dongzi is good-looking. If he gets a job, our family will definitely be trampled by others."
But what she didn't know was that her grandson's job was just a pie in the sky drawn by the eldest wife and her husband. How could he get a job if he didn't complete the tasks assigned to him?
At the same time, Ge Xiuhua, who was working in the field, was absent-mindedly doing her work while whispering to her husband next to her: "My father is really something. He didn't even discuss it and directly separated the second room. He didn't even let us say a word."
Liu Shangang's expression was not much better: "You know that our father cares most about his reputation. If we don't make a decision today, do you think the second brother's family will let it go?"
"Then what about Dongzi's job?"
Speaking of this, Liu Shangang's face became even more sour: "How do you do things? Isn't it said that everything is foolproof? How come that damn girl showed up at home out of nowhere?"
Ge Xiulan looked around guiltily and lowered her voice: "They clearly knocked her out and sent her up the mountain. I wonder how she got back."
"No one saw you when you made your move yesterday, did you?"
"No, no, absolutely no one knows about this."
She would never tell anyone that her nephew was involved, and she would never let her man know that she was targeting that damn girl Chuxue.
Liu Shangang let out a long sigh: "Things have already come to this, let's find another opportunity, she will be back in a few days anyway."
Before they could finish their conversation, they heard a voice shouting from afar: "Shangang family, someone from your mother's family is looking for you."
Just then, a voice came from a distance: "Auntie!"
Ge Xiulan stopped what she was doing, and her heart trembled: "Why do I hear the voice of my eldest brother's family Baocheng?"
Liu Shangang frowned and looked into the distance, feeling annoyed: "Running so fast, it must be bad news."
As he said this, he stuck the hoe in his hand into the ground and waited for someone to come.
Ge Xiulan felt it was strange that she didn't see her nephew this morning. She threw away the farm tools in her hands and went straight to him: "San, why didn't you come this morning?"
"Aunt, there was a thief in the house."
"What?"
"My grandmother's house, kitchen and backyard were robbed."
At this time, Liu Shangang also came over and asked: "When did it happen?"
"We found out yesterday evening. My grandma fainted from anger. The family was so confused that they didn't care about anything else. She woke up this morning. My family was afraid that my grandma would be upset again, so they asked me to come and ask my aunt to go back and help her comfort her."
Hearing this, Ge Xiulan's face changed instantly, and she asked anxiously: "No one was home yesterday afternoon, how could it be robbed?"
