Chapter 15: These men are brave and fierce; you deserve to know them.
Faced with all sorts of accusations, Liu Nian just smiled and said, "Mom, then I'll do it myself. When I find the thing, don't say I didn't give you face."
After saying that, Liu Nian walked towards the cabinet.
The cabinet was against the wall; someone had just searched it, but found nothing. Wang Xiuzhi wasn't afraid and scoffed, "They've already searched it, why waste time?"
Liu Nian gave Wang Xiuzhi a cold look, then bent down to move the cabinet.
Wang Xiuzhi's face turned pale instantly. "Second son's wife!" Before she could finish speaking, Liu Nian moved the cabinet away.
Behind the cabinet was a large hole that had been dug out! Inside was a bag and a box wrapped in oil paper.
The director of the Women's Federation walked over with a stern face, picked up the box, opened it, and sure enough, it was Liu Nian's gold ring!
The bag contained rice seeds, something that should have been in the production team's office, but somehow it ended up here.
"You actually stole the production team's seeds!" The Women's Federation director hated nothing more than these parasites on socialism. Her face darkened as she angrily rebuked, "All of Su Zhenye's work points this month will be confiscated!"
"Oh no! Please! Otherwise, our family will never be able to survive!" Wang Xiuzhi cried out. "Please, you're forcing our family to the brink of ruin!"
"If you keep causing trouble, don't blame me for taking a stricter stance!" The Women's Federation director glared at her.
She was trying to downplay the matter out of consideration for the neighbors, but Wang Xiuzhi didn't appreciate it at all.
"Okay, okay, I won't make a fuss anymore." Wang Xiuzhi quickly shut her mouth, secretly giving Liu Nian a sidelong glance.
How did she know where she hid the things?
Seeing Wang Xiuzhi retaliate, Liu Nian raised an eyebrow defiantly and held out her hand, "Mom, where's my two hundred yuan?"
"What?" Wang Xiuzhi was stunned. "I didn't take your money!"
There was only a gold ring in the bag, not two hundred yuan. Wang Xiuzhi immediately shouted that she was wronged.
"I didn't take the money! Really!" Wang Xiuzhi slapped her thigh in desperation, but no one believed her anymore.
"Alright, hurry up and hand over the money. We trusted you so much before." They already felt bad enough for wronging Liu Nian, so no one would speak up for Wang Xiuzhi now.
The Women's Federation director glanced at her from head to toe, adopting an official's air of authority, "Are you going to hand over the money yourself, or wait for the higher-ups to investigate thoroughly?"
Wang Xiuzhi wanted to slap herself a few times, feeling extremely annoyed. She instantly realized that this was a trap set by Liu Nian.
This is a perfect example of "lifting a stone to drop it on one's own foot."
Extremely reluctantly, Wang Xiuzhi took out two hundred yuan, which was her most treasured money. Her heart was bleeding as she handed it over.
Liu Nian snatched it and stuffed it into her pocket. This was a lesson learned, to prevent her from coveting her dowry in the future.
"We're here today to oversee the division of the family property." The Women's Federation director put her hands on her hips and took a breath. "On the way here, Nianya already told me that the west wing will be given to them. From now on, they can keep the work points they earn themselves, and their food and drink will have nothing to do with you."
Liu Nian handed over the document she had already written, pointing to the list on it and saying, "These are my dowry and betrothal gifts. They are all my personal belongings and cannot be used for public purposes!"
In her previous life, Wang Xiuzhi coveted Liu Nian's dowry, saying that since they were family, they should share everything. In the end, all the things were moved into the main house little by little, and were ultimately saved for Su Zhimeng to use when he got married.
"What?" Wang Xiuzhi was dumbfounded; her wishful thinking had come to nothing.
The director of the Women's Federation glared at her fiercely, "This originally belonged to someone else. What, you want to take it for yourself?"
"No, I hadn't thought about it." Wang Xiuzhi looked aggrieved.
Liu Nian handed the agreement to Wang Xiuzhi, saying, "Then please sign it and put your fingerprint on it, Mom."
With everyone present as witnesses, Wang Xiuzhi signed her name and pressed her fingerprint on the document, then tossed the agreement to Liu Nian with a huff, saying, "Here you go!"
"Okay!" Liu Nian took it with a big smile, which really annoyed Wang Xiuzhi.
Seeing that everything was settled, Liu Nian then saw the group of people out.
Liu Xiangxiang slammed the door shut and went into the east wing. Liu Nian said she wanted to separate the family, and it went so smoothly! She wanted to separate too, but Su Hang wouldn't listen to her at all. Who wanted to serve this whole family every day?
Moreover, Su Zhenye was fined a month's worth of work points, and Su Hang was also in the labor reform team, so his work points could only be counted as half a person's. What would they do from now on?
She had only rested for a short while when she heard Wang Xiuzhi cursing in the yard, "Eldest daughter-in-law, come out here right now! How can you be so young and have no sense of propriety? Can't you see that the chickens and ducks haven't been fed?"
"Coming." Liu Xiangxiang pushed open the door and walked out irritably.
Liu Nian put away the money and the agreement. Suddenly, she missed Su Xu a little. She opened her phone again and this time changed the angle of the live stream to see what Su Xu was doing.
In the fields, Su Xu took off his coat, leaving only a tank top, and with a strong push of his hands and waist, hoisted a whole bag of fertilizer onto his shoulder.
His bulging biceps and the prominent veins beneath his skin were clearly visible. Su Xu, panting slightly, strode forward, his handsome features inadvertently glancing into the camera's viewfinder.
Those eyes were like a wolf's!
One after another, infatuated netizens began to tip the girls.
"I'm just an ordinary person, I like watching this! This isn't something you can watch for free! You have to pay!"
"If I could, I'd want to be the most expensive VIP and watch things that can't be streamed!"
"I want to see Niannian carried on someone's shoulder, that would be so manly!"
Looking at the scrolling comments and the rockets of donations, Liu Nian sighed. "You women are so lewd! What are you staring at her man for?"
As she was muttering to herself, a sweet, delicate female voice suddenly came from the edge of the field.
"Brother Xu!"
They're calling each other so affectionately... Liu Nian frowned.
