Chapter 87 Stealing Money
The wedding was completely over at night. Even though Shen Sangyu did nothing, she was still exhausted after a day, so she went back to Liu's house early to sleep.
I don't know how long it took, but in her dream, Shen Sangyu felt the bed collapse, as if someone sat down.
She opened her eyes slightly and saw a man with a strong back sitting next to the bed.
Shen Sangyu's sleepiness disappeared instantly. There were countless screams in her mind. She sat up from the bed and stared straight at Wen Qingchuan's back.
A thin layer of muscle could be seen on the man's back, with broad shoulders and narrow waist, and smooth lines.
Gulp -
in the quiet room, the sound of Shen Sangyu swallowing saliva was very loud.
Wen Qingchuan was also stunned, and turned back in a panic. The two looked at each other for a long time, and finally stood up and said, "Are you awake? I'll go put on some clothes."
Shen Sangyu said subconsciously, staring at Wen Qingchuan's figure, and murmured, "No, no need."
Just like this... it looks good.
Shen Sangyu couldn't help thinking in her heart.
But Wen Qingchuan still took out a black short-sleeved shirt from his luggage in a panic and put it on.
"I just took a shower and I thought you fell asleep. Sorry."
Wen Qingchuan didn't hear Shen Sangyu's "no need" because he was in a panic. He was very panicked at the moment, but there was no expression on his face.
Although he and Shen Sangyu are husband and wife, they have basically never achieved the things that husband and wife should have. Will Sangyu be angry about what happened just now?
Wen Qingchuan looked at Shen Sangyu with some trepidation. Sure enough, his wife on the bed stared at him without blinking.
After an unknown amount of time, Shen Sangyu's low voice was heard: "You must be tired, go to bed quickly."
Wen Qingchuan nodded quickly.
The two of them were silent all night, and Shen Sangyu slept soundly until dawn. When she woke up, her head was still resting on Wen Qingchuan's chest.
Shen Sangyu looked up and saw Wen Qingchuan's slightly bloodshot eyes.
"Didn't you sleep well?" Shen Sangyu asked.
Wen Qingchuan had no expression on his face, and his face even looked very bad, but his tone was a little fast: "No."
Shen Sangyu didn't think much about it, yawned and got up.
Wen Qingchuan boiled water for Shen Sangyu to take a bath. He knew that Shen Sangyu liked to be clean. She took a bath frequently in winter, not to mention summer. It was just that she was too tired last night and fell asleep directly.
Shen Sangyu had just finished taking a shower when she heard a conversation coming from outside the Liu family's door.
Shen Sangyu walked out of the door and then saw Wen's father and Li Shuhua standing at the door of the Liu family and talking to Wen Qingchuan.
After listening carefully, she realized that it was Wen's father and Li Shuhua who asked them to go back home.
Wen Qingchuan, who was standing at the gate of the yard, seemed to have said something to the two of them. Shen Sangyu immediately saw Wen's father's face change. This honest and simple man who had been silent since she came home became extremely mean: "Your mother asked you to come back and live here, but you didn't. Now your parents are here to invite you, and you still don't come back! Wen Qingchuan, do you think you are the leader now, so you are so angry!"
Wen Qingchuan's voice was very indifferent: "No, I said, Sangyu and I came back to attend the wedding. Now that the wedding is over, Sangyu and I will go back to Sijiu City in two days."
"Go back?" Li Shuhua was a little surprised. She didn't expect Wen Qingchuan to leave so soon.
"No!"
Li Shuhua said immediately: "You will leave after your brother gets married. You know how people in the village will look at him..."
Li Shuhua wanted to say that the reason why the wedding went so smoothly was because of Wen Qingchuan's position in the military region, but she couldn't say it. Suddenly, her eyes turned and her eyes suddenly looked at Shen Sangyu who was watching the show at the gate.
"You can go back, but Shen Sangyu is my Wen family's daughter-in-law. Now your father and I are old, so she should stay in her hometown."
Wen Qingchuan said without thinking: "What is Sangyu doing in her hometown? Can you take care of her?"
Li Shuhua: "..."
Look at what your eldest son said!
"How can parents-in-law take care of their own daughter-in-law? Now your grandma is not in good health, your father and I are so old, as the daughter-in-law of the Wen family, she should stay at home to take care of us."
Li Shuhua is not completely stupid. She knows clearly how much Wen Qingchuan likes Shen Sangyu. Otherwise, who can buy such a bunch of snacks? What kind of daughter-in-law is so capable.
And as long as Shen Sangyu stays in the country, she doesn't believe that she can't control her eldest son.
Li Shuhua almost laughed when she thought that as long as Shen Sangyu stayed, she would have at least tens of dollars in income every month in the future.
"Sangyu is young and can't take care of you. As far as I know, the second brother and Chunyan didn't give money to the family, so it's their responsibility to take care of you." Wen Qingchuan also saw through Li Shuhua's thoughts and did not back down.
Shen Sangyu also came over at this time, scanning the Wen couple in front of her.
To be honest, the Wen family's appearance is not high. They are not ugly, but they are just normal.
Li Shuhua is sarcastic, Wen's father looks like an honest man, Wen Chao has an ordinary appearance and a thin figure, and Wen Chunyan has dark skin, which is not related to beauty. However, such an ordinary Wen family gave birth to a handsome child like Wen Qingchuan.
Could it be a genetic mutation?
"What are you looking at?"
Just when Shen Sangyu was thinking about something, she suddenly heard Wen's father's slightly mean voice.
Shen Sangyu just came to her senses, and then she heard Li Shuhua cursing, "What are you looking at? Is there anything wrong between your father and I? You are the daughter-in-law of my Wen family. Since you are married to the Wen family, you should abide by the rules of the Wen family! Anyway, you stay here, and Qingchuan will go back to the army by himself."
The noise in the Liu family was getting louder and louder. Uncle Liu and Aunt Liu were out farming, but there were many people in the village, and some people heard the noise and ran over.
More and more people came, and the people in the same village seemed to give the old couple of the Wen family unlimited confidence.
"Shen Sangyu, don't blame me, your mother, for scolding you. You and Qingchuan have been together for more than a year, and you don't even have a child. Now we, the elders, are old and want you to stay and help, but you are still unwilling? We are not keeping you here forever, and this is a chance for you to prove your filial piety. When you return to the family compound, the leaders may even praise you for your filial piety."
Li Shuhua is a master in PUA.
Shen Sangyu looked at Li Shuhua with a half-smile, and suddenly asked: "You said that I should abide by the rules of the Wen family when I marry into the Wen family, right?"
Li Shuhua didn't understand, but nodded.
Shen Sangyu laughed: "Oh, but I'm not a member of your Wen family, how can I abide by the rules of the Wen family, and how dare you ask me to honor you!"
Li Shuhua's face changed slightly: "Shen Sangyu, you..."
"What do you mean by me!" Shen Sangyu's face suddenly turned cold, and she walked to the open space outside the Liu family's wall.
At this time, there were already more than ten people standing there. Shen Sangyu suddenly raised her voice: "When Wen Qingchuan and I got married, who from your Wen family was there? Did you contribute a share of the betrothal gift? When Wen Qingchuan was injured last time, did you, Li Shuhua, ever say anything about your concern? Wen Qingchuan and you are inseparable by blood, but I, Shen Sangyu, belong to Wen Qingchuan, not the Wen family! It's okay for me to take care of you. Maybe one day I'm not happy and my whole family will go to heaven together!"
Li Shuhua's face turned pale.
Suddenly, she thought of the scene half a year ago when Shen Sangyu drove them away. Shen Sangyu had the same expression now.
I don't know why Li Shuhua could feel that Shen Sangyu kept his word.
It was only the first time that Wen's father saw Shen Sangyu's expression. As the head of the family, he was so angry when his dignity was pressed to the ground: "You... are so treasonous! What daughter-in-law dares to educate her parents-in-law like this!"
"You also know that this is education!" Shen Sangyu snorted coldly: "Then didn't you see it today!"
Wen's father: "..."
Wen's father's face flushed with anger. He was of average height, and his shoulders were slightly hunched due to working all day. When he spoke, there was no temperament except that of a villain.
Shen Sangyu was not afraid of the Wen family.
And this was all the truth, so even if they made trouble in front of the military district leaders, they would ignore it.
Wen Qingchuan stepped forward quickly, blocking most of Shen Sangyu's body in front of him: "Mom and Dad, Sangyu must go back with me this time. I was the one who arranged the betrothal gift and the wedding. Sangyu is marrying Wen Qingchuan, not the Wen family. Since mom and dad don't like Sangyu, I won't bring her home to be wronged in the future."
Li Shuhua's face was pale, and Wen's father's face was red.
One was afraid, and the other was angry, but in the end no one mentioned the idea of letting Shen Sangyu stay in the Wen family.
"Then you go back and live with us!"
Wen's father said quickly, and it was not difficult to hear that the other party was suppressing his anger at the moment.
However, Shen Sangyu said bluntly: "Go and sleep in your storage room? I'm not saying anything bad about you, but most of the money for this house should be from Qingchuan, right? Even if you don't like Qingchuan, you wouldn't plan to leave even a room for him, right?"
The eyes of the onlookers in the distance were deep.
Shen Sangyu had told several aunts at the entrance of the village before that any aunt at the entrance of the village would be a big mouth. In less than a day, everyone knew about Wen Qingchuan's stay at the Wen family.
Moreover, everyone in the village knew that Wen Qingchuan was not liked by the Wen couple, so they were not surprised. Li Shuhua and Wen's father did not refute it, but they were still shocked.
"Tsk!"
Someone in the crowd exclaimed.
Wen's father wanted to save face, and his face turned from red to gloomy when he heard this voice.
"You don't know what's good for you! Let's go!" Father Wen couldn't stay any longer, and he cursed and walked directly towards the Wen family.
Shen Sangyu looked at the two of them coldly as they left, and the good mood she had in the morning dissipated a little.
She and Wen Qingchuan returned to the room, and after closing the door to the yard, Wen Qingchuan sat on the stool for a while, and suddenly asked: "What do you want to eat?"
The man's tone was very calm. Shen Sangyu, who had planned to comfort the man, raised her head in confusion: "Huh?"
"Uncle Liu and Aunt Liu won't be home until noon. We can't always let Aunt Liu cook. Can we eat stir-fried pork today?"
Shen Sangyu was dazed for a moment, then nodded: "I... I'm not picky about food, anything is fine."
Rarely, Wen Qingchuan looked up at Shen Sangyu, and then said: "Well, you're not picky about food."
Without waiting for Shen Sangyu to respond, Wen Qingchuan turned and went into the kitchen.
Shen Sangyu followed him, although he couldn't help much, just to accompany him.
Last winter, the Liu family killed a pig, and there was bacon hanging on the stove. Although the stir-fried pork was not authentic, Wen Qingchuan was a good cook, and the food smelled delicious as soon as it came out of the pot.
Uncle Liu and Aunt Liu came home earlier than usual, and they were still a little out of breath when they came back.
As soon as I walked in, I smelled a fragrant smell. I was stunned for a moment, and then I saw Wen Qingchuan carrying a pot of food out.
"Uncle Liu is back." Shen Sangyu greeted Uncle Liu when he saw him, and after putting the food on the table, he went back to the kitchen and fetched a bucket of water for the two to wash their hands.
"I heard that your parents came again today. What did they say?"
Wen Qingchuan immediately understood why Uncle Liu came back so early, and immediately told him what happened today.
Uncle Liu didn't know the inside story, but after hearing Shen Sangyu scolding the two elders of the Wen family, he said it was a good scolding.
He was not a stubborn person. Although Shen Sangyu's scolding was unreasonable, he had to say that it was Li Shuhua and Wen's father who asked for scolding.
"Wen Chao and Zhuang Xiuhong's wedding is over. You should hurry to the town to buy a ticket back to Sijiu City. Don't come back if you can."
Uncle Liu said sincerely, "Don't blame me for saying this. Your parents don't treat you as their son. There's no need to invest too much affection in you in the future. Now the right thing for you two to live a good life."
Wen Qingchuan nodded, "I know, Uncle Liu, Aunt Liu, let's eat."
It was the first time that Uncle Liu and Aunt Liu were so excited when they returned home. They chatted happily with Wen Qingchuan at the dinner table.
Knowing that Shen Sangyu had taken the college entrance exam, Uncle Liu and Aunt Liu were very surprised and couldn't help asking, "Did you pass?"
Shen Sangyu smiled and said, "I guess I won't know until I go back. Don't worry, I'll write to you as soon as I get the results."
Uncle Liu and Aunt Liu were so excited that their faces turned red. They nodded repeatedly and agreed.
In the evening, Wen Qingchuan told Shen Sangyu about going back in two days.
Wen Qingchuan asked for a half-month leave, and now half of it has passed. There is nothing good to keep in the Wen family. Even if Wen Qingchuan didn't say it, she would have mentioned it.
"Then I'll go to the city with you to buy tickets tomorrow."
Wen Qingchuan originally wanted to say that he would be fine alone, but Shen Sangyu said that she wanted to go to the city to buy some things.
Wen Qingchuan has never been good at choosing things for girls, so he went to the village chief's house overnight to borrow a bicycle.
The Wen family also bought a bicycle a few days ago. Wen Chao was showing off in the village every day. The village chief knew that Wen Qingchuan and the Wen family were not on good terms, so he readily lent him a bicycle.
Wen Qingchuan wanted to give money, but was rejected by the village chief.
"After all, you grew up under your uncle's care. Why do you want to borrow a bicycle?"
Wen Qingchuan had to give up, thanked him, and went into the city with Shen Sangyu the next day.
Wen Qingchuan booked a train ticket for two days later. After booking the ticket, Shen Sangyu went to the supply and marketing cooperative and exchanged the meat ticket in his hand for pork.
"For Uncle Liu and Aunt Liu?" Wen Qingchuan guessed Shen Sangyu's intention immediately.
Sometimes Shen Sangyu was very careful and could always think of things that he could not think of.
Sure enough, Shen Sangyu nodded: "Uncle Liu and Aunt Liu are in poor health, they need these things to replenish their bodies. We have bought them, so Uncle Liu and Aunt Liu will not refuse."
Wen Qingchuan curled his lips: "Well, Sangyu is still thoughtful."
Shen Sangyu was embarrassed by the compliment: "Uncle Liu and Aunt Liu are good people. They took care of you when you were a child. You have eaten meat every day at home these days. I don’t know how much thought they put into it. These are what we should do."
Wen Qingchuan thought for a while: "Then let's wait a little longer before going back. It’s not good to be seen by others."
Wen Qingchuan waited until the lunch break in the village to go back. He still took the small road and didn't meet many people along the way.
However, when she returned, Uncle Liu and Aunt Liu had already gone out to work. Shen Sangyu was very tired and sweating. Wen Qingchuan saw this and marinated the pork with salt and went to the kitchen to boil water for Shen Sangyu.
Shen Sangyu returned to the room, but as soon as she opened her luggage, she felt something was wrong.
Shen Sangyu searched the entire luggage, but it was still empty.
Turning back, the malted milk next to the bedside table was gone. There were
originally two bottles of malted milk, she kept one for herself and gave the other to Aunt Liu for nourishment.
However, the malted milk in the bedside table was nowhere to be found, and the eight hundred yuan in the luggage was also gone.
"Wen Qingchuan!"
Wen Qingchuan in the kitchen heard the voice and came over immediately. Seeing Shen Sangyu's gloomy face, he hurriedly asked: "What's wrong!"
Shen Sangyu said: "Go to Wen's house!"
