Chapter 147 The Thief Who Steals Money

Shen Zheng smiled helplessly, "Yes, you are smart, cute, and beautiful. You are your good son."

Zheng Lanhua held the last bowl of soup and put it on the table, "Try it quickly, I can make the soup today."

The smile on Shen Zheng's face froze.

Zheng Lanhua snorted lightly, "Look at your expression, give it to me quickly, drink two bowls first."

As she said that, she directly filled a bowl and stuffed it into Shen Zheng's hand.

Fang Xiaoluo looked at him with a smile, "Try it, you must be brave to try."

Shen Zheng took a sip and his eyes lit up.

This is not his mother's usual level at all.

Shen Haifeng came over with a pile of bowls, "My mother taught my grandmother to make soup. Grandma puts whatever my mother tells her to put in, how much, and in what order. There is no room for her to do anything on her own."

Zheng Lanhua glared at him, "You are such a talkative kid."

Shen Haifeng stuck out his tongue.

Then, the whole family sat down around the table and started to eat.

Shen Haiping ate silently with a satisfied look on his face. Everything his mother made was delicious, super delicious.

On the other side, Xu Zhigang and Zhao Lihong were released.

The two were very haggard and in very bad mental state.

When Zhao Lihong returned home, she saw that the house was desolate.

Although the house was cleaned up by Xu Xiaojie, it was still clean, but it didn't feel the same as before.

She went to the kitchen and took a look around. Not only had the family been eating coarse grains these days, but there were also a lot of pickled vegetables and nothing else.

Xu Zhigang went to the factory and was almost angry enough to faint.

The factory was so bad that it could be closed down.

In the factory, Xu Zhigang scolded Xu Chengwen.

The Xu family was about to go bankrupt, and if there was no business, the rented place and factory would also be lost.

In just these few days, Xu Chengwen was so worried that his hair turned white. He did not do the right job in the factory and lost several orders. When he was in a bad mood, he would go home and make a fuss, either quarreling with his wife or beating his children.

The naughty kid who used to make noises everyday now hides when he sees Xu Chengwen.

Xu Zhigang scolded Xu Chengwen from the factory to home.

Zhao Lihong heard the sound and said, "Why are you scolding a kid?"

Xu Zhigang told Zhao Lihong about the things in the factory, "It's all your fault. You made him a complete loser. How are you going to live in the future?"

Xu Chengwen hid aside and said nothing.

Zhao Lihong was also surprised after hearing this. She had lived a comfortable life in the past few years, but she never thought that it would become like this all of a sudden.

"What should we do now?"

"What should we do?" Xu Zhigang said angrily, "If it really doesn't work, we should sell the car first to hold on for a while. We can't let the factory we have worked so hard to run go bankrupt, otherwise we will have trouble eating."

Zhao Lihong was reluctant to sell the car. This car cost them 50,000 or 60,000 yuan at the time. It was unknown how much it could be sold for.

Xu Yaqiu knew that Xu Zhigang and Zhao Lihong were going home today, so she went straight back to her parents' home after work at noon.

Before she even entered the door, she heard quarreling and beating of the children inside.

Zhao Lihong was very worried, and she didn't look at Xu Yaqiu well.

"What are you doing here again? Your father-in-law can't help at all. It's all your fault that our family is in the situation now! If you hadn't come back, would your father and I be like this? Would the family business be so bad?"

Xu Yaqiu was also unhappy. She came to see them with good intentions, so how could it be her fault?

"Mom, what you said is not my fault. It's not me who asked you to snatch Fang Xiaoluo's child, nor is it me who made the family business difficult. How can it be my fault?"

Zhao Lihong stood up and glared at Xu Yaqiu. "Why is it not your fault? Since you came back to this family, has our family had a good life? I think you are a death star!"

Xu Yaqiu covered her chest, "I... am I still your biological daughter? You You actually said I was a deadly omen!"

Xu Chengwen, who had been hanging his head, now raised his head and glared at Xu Yaqiu, "I think so too. When Xiaoluo was at home, the factory business was good, and she often subsidized the family. There were also two business orders that were signed with the family because of Fang Xiaoluo. Now it's good. I heard that Fang Xiaoluo is not here, and they won't renew our contract! What have you given to the family? Nothing but trouble."

"If you hadn't found her back then, there would be no Fang Xiaoluo, but Xu Xiaoluo! Xu Xiaoluo is still the daughter of this family! Go and see what kind of life the Fang and Shen families are living now!"

Xu Yaqiu's chest was heaving with anger, "You...you! Why do you say that to me? Fang Xiaoluo, Fang Xiaoluo, everyone likes Fang Xiaoluo. If you have the ability, bring her back!"

"What kind of life the Fang and Shen families are living has nothing to do with me! Do you think I don't want to live a good life? You should help me, have you helped me?"

After saying that, she angrily smashed all the teacups and teapots in the living room, and then walked away. Zhao Lihong and the others were also angry and glared at her.

At the same time, the Zhou family. Qian Haixia needed money for something, so she went to look for the money in her closet.

She clearly put one thousand yuan in there, but after she took out all the things and searched for a long time, she only found four hundred yuan.

"Lao Zhou, Lao Zhou, did you take the money from my closet?"

Zhou Ping came over and said, "No, what money?"

Qian Haixia was anxious. Six hundred yuan is not a small amount. "Then why is six hundred less from my money?"

Zhou Ping came over to help search, "Did you put them separately or put them all together?"

"I put them all together, they are pressed down here." Qian Haixia was very anxious.

Zhou Ping also looked through the books, "It's not logical that a thief broke into the house. Who would steal the money and not take all the money and leave 400?"

Zhou Yanwen heard it clearly outside the door and thought, this is bad. It would be better to take all 1,000.

It happened to be noon, and everyone except Xu Yaqiu was at home.

Zhou Ping looked at his two sons and one daughter with a gloomy face, "Who stole the money, confess quickly!"

Zhou Qingyou waved his hands quickly, "I didn't take it."

Zhou Lili also said, "I didn't take it either."

Zhou Yanwen's eyes rolled, "It must be Xu Yaqiu, it must be her!"

Zhou Ping asked, "How do you know?"

"I... I saw her sneak into your room yesterday, she must have taken the money." Zhou Yanwen's words sounded more and more true, "Otherwise why would she run back to her parents' home after work at noon today? Everyone knows that the Xu family's business is very bad now, she must have gone home to give money."
