All the Lin family's expenses and income, big and small, were recorded in great detail, even recording when Lin Bao was given a penny to buy candy.
"My grandmother is very frugal and knows that the family's financial power is in her hands, so she is not careless at all. All our family bills over the years are written here, including income, expenditure and balance. It is written clearly and there is no mistake at all! Since my aunt thinks that she has been shortchanged, why not check the account book to see if it is correct."
This is a good idea, and the village chief was the first to agree.
As the middleman, it was best for him to have this account book. He opened it and looked at it carefully. Because the records were very detailed, it took him a long time to read it. In the end, he saw that the remaining money was divided into three equal parts, and then asked the three families how much they got.
The old lady was really not partial. Each son received the same amount of money, and she didn't keep a single cent.
Shen Hongyan didn't expect this to happen. She widened her eyes and said, "Impossible! He must have given me too little. He must have given me too little!"
The village chief's face turned ugly when he heard this: "Sister-in-law, I personally checked this account book, and I said this. Sister-in-law, do you think I'm talking nonsense on purpose?"
Shen Hongyan immediately shut up and shook her head: "No, I didn't mean that, it's just..."
She racked her brains to explain, and finally clapped her hands fiercely: "This lousy account book must be fake! My mother never went to school, how could she possibly know how to read!"
Finally having caught her, Shen Hongyan laughed sarcastically: "Hahahaha! Can you fake the evidence more convincingly next time? I hope I caught you!"
Lin Yuhua and Lin Yulai were speechless, An Xin rolled her eyes, and only Wang Feng was willing to say a few words to her.
"It's true that my mother never went to school, and she couldn't even read a single word before."
Admit it, finally admit it!
Chen Hongyan pointed at Wang Feng and shouted to the village chief: "Did you hear that? Wang Feng admitted it!"
"What did I admit?" Wang Feng curled her lips. "You don't understand what I'm saying, do you? I told you it was in the past. Don't you know that mother learned calligraphy from my sister-in-law?"
Although Old Mrs. Lin had never been to school, An Xin had been educated, and An Xin had taught the old lady how to read before.
The old lady doesn't have to take an exam, so as long as she learns some basic characters and can do some accounting, she will be able to do that.
The village chief looked at the words in the account book. Although they were recorded in great detail, the words were all crooked and it was obvious that they were written by someone who had not learned for long and did not know how to write very well. It was difficult for ordinary people to imitate them.
He closed the notebook and gave it to Lin Yin, and there was resentment in his eyes when he looked at Chen Hongyan.
"Sister-in-law, you were the one who said we should split up the family business. Now that we've split up, you should just live well. Why are you always dealing with useless things all day long? Who has the time to argue with you about this and that?"
Shen Hongyan was in a very bad mood after being told that, but she still insisted on her own idea: "The old lady just gave them more money, why don't you believe it?"
"How can I believe it?" The village chief replied, "I've read the account book. It's clearly written. I understand it. Every word I say is true."
"But...but..." Shen Hongyan muttered, "Then how do I explain the matter of the sewing machine and the meat?"
The village chief was completely speechless: "If they can make money, then they can spend it on delicious food. If you can't make money, what else can you do?"
