The eldest child who was named quickly put the little girl in his arms and ran to Xia Manni.
"Here, take a bite." She just weighed it casually. The bag looked deflated, but it was quite heavy.
"Big boy, if you dare to open it, I will tear your skin apart."
The eldest boy just looked up at his grandmother and aunt, then quickly picked up the bag and started to look through it.
The kitchen knife stopped the mother and daughter who were about to snatch it away.
The bundle was spread out in the yard, and the curious villagers came over to check it out with Da Wa.
Inside the bundle were two sets of jewelry, both made of silver and worth an unknown amount of money, two changes of clothes, and the rest was a purse and a worn brocade box.
"Big boy, open that purse and box for me."
Xia Manni said as she turned around and glanced while holding the kitchen knife.
The two people who had obviously never had much contact with each other cooperated so well at this time.
Da Wa opened the brocade box obediently without saying a word.
It turned out that the shabby brocade box contained a medium-sized salt brick.
"Haha, this Daxiu Niang is really amazing. She even took away the salt bricks."
The crowd erupted in laughter.
Xia Manni also curled her lips. How poor was this family that they even brought salt bricks with them?
She knew that salt bricks were indeed valuable in ancient times. Because the imperial court had very strict control over salt and did not allow private salt sales, the price of salt had always been high.
Then Da Wa opened the last purse and found silver inside.
"Ten taels of silver." Da Wa said stiffly. He didn't know what to call his stepmother, and he had never called her mother.
"Ten taels of silver?"
"Isn't this the money given by Hu Zi in the military camp?"
"Yes, the village chief brought people from the military camp and said that he gave them ten taels."
"This Daxiu Niang is such a piece of shit. She actually took away all the valuables in the house."
Xia Manni listened to the discussions of people around her, and there was nothing she didn't understand.
This woman is so vicious. Not only did she leave this mess to a weak woman, but she also took away all the money in the house.
This money is also the pension for the short-lived husband.
She didn't necessarily have to seek justice, but if she let them go, she would be the one who would suffer in the end.
"Grandma, what else can I say? These are the only valuable things in the house, and you took them all away."
Da Xiuniang stared at her bag and didn't take Xia Manni's words to heart at all.
He said perfunctorily, "I'm just worried that when I get to your sister's place, she'll need a lot of money, so..."
"Stop making it up. If you want to get away with this knife today, you'll definitely draw blood." Xia Manni said as she pushed the kitchen knife towards the two of them.
"Xia Manni, how could you talk to my mother like that? We have to leave today." Daxiu said as he stepped on the kitchen knife with his head held high.
Her original intention was to confront Xia Manni head-on, hoping to make Xia Manni retreat and beg for mercy.
Unexpectedly, instead of retreating, Xia Manni pushed the kitchen knife forward.
"Ah!!" Someone in the crowd watching the show had such poor mental quality that he was the first to scream.
"No, no, no, Daxiu, don't mess around. Manny, if you have something to say, just talk it over nicely." Seeing this, Daxiu's mother hurriedly tried to persuade him.
When Daxiu saw that Xia Manni was serious, he couldn't help but soften.
Xia Manni noticed that the other party's momentum was weakening, so she said kindly, "You can leave if you want, but leave this bag here."
"Impossible." Daxiu denied it without even thinking about it.
"If you don't want to leave, then don't leave." Xia Manni thought that Daxiu was really stupid. As long as the money was given to the Xia family by the government, it would never fall into the hands of Daxiu.
Are such relatives kept around to keep the family burning?
Her original intention was not to let the old woman stay, because if she really stayed, who knows how many times Daxiu would come to make trouble in the future.
When it comes to money, she is so decisive. It seems that she is not really doing it for her mother, but for the money.
Xia Manni couldn't help but look down on this big show.
Da Xiuniang looked at this, then looked at that, and then looked at the sky which was about to get dark.
So he said, "Daxiu, if I don't, I won't go with you..."
"No, you must come with me. Mom, we can't be afraid of her, she is yours." Daxiu continued to brainwash her mother and treated her mother as a fool.
"But, but..." But the money cannot be taken away like this, after all, it is silver given by the government.
Daxiu glared at his hesitant mother and said, "Mom, what are you afraid of? Let's go and see what he can do."
Although Daxiu said he was leaving, he reached out his hand to the bundle on the ground.
At the same time, Xia Manni's kitchen knife also chopped over.
"ah!!!"
"Oh my god, there's blood. There's blood."
"Murder, murder."
Some timid people have already run away out of fear.
The three children in the family hugged each other tightly.
Xia Manni chopped Daxiu's arm with a kitchen knife, and blood immediately flowed from her arm. Then Daxiu screamed in fear.
This is exactly the effect Xia Manni wants. If she doesn't want to be bullied, she has to kill him with one blow.
But she didn't need to kill Daxiu, so she used less force when she moved her knife. She was sure she only cut the fur and not the bones.
But there are many blood vessels on the arm, and the bleeding will immediately stop after being cut.
