There were also two handkerchiefs; when I opened them, they were full of money.
However, there weren't as many as in the box; one package contained two thousand yuan, and the other contained three hundred and fifty yuan.
I wonder whose secret stash of money this is.
However, there are only a few people in the family.
Bai Ying, Fang Fang, Liu Dahai, Liu Xiaohai…
Who cares? Whoever it is, it's his now.
Today was a really happy day. I earned 22,300 yuan, two gold bars, and several pairs of jewelry.
Liu Yihang put the money from the two handkerchiefs into the box and then returned it to his micro-space.
Drifting off to sleep peacefully.
-
Liu Yihang was sleeping soundly, but his family members were not so happy.
They spent the whole night debating before finally settling on the terms.
They completely separated the family.
Bai Ying and Liu Xiangbei were arguing fiercely over the ownership of several plots of land, and they were never this enthusiastic when farming.
They fight over every single penny when dividing things.
The ownership of Liu Xiangbei's shop is also a problem.
Liu Xiangbei felt that he had built this business from scratch, and it had nothing to do with his second son's family, so he should continue to run it himself.
Bai Ying, however, felt that this was common property acquired before the family split and should be divided equally. Otherwise, Liu Xiangbei should give her family one-third of the shop's value as a discount.
The village secretary and several elderly people couldn't stand it anymore and shook their heads in speechlessness.
Of this family, only Liu Xiangdong is a decent man; Liu Xiangxi and Liu Xiangbei are no good.
Ge Cuihua lost such a good son for a little money; she'll regret it later.
However, this might be a good thing for Liu Xiangdong. Getting entangled with these people would only drag him down sooner or later.
After finishing the documents for dividing the family property, they left first.
The Liu family members continued arguing, with both the second and third sons feeling they hadn't received enough.
Liu Xiangbei's truth-telling symbol has finally become ineffective.
He regretted it; why did he blurt out the truth back then?
After crying, Fang Fang chose to temporarily align herself with Liu Xiangbei. No matter how much trouble she might cause with Liu Xiangbei later, they would unite against a common enemy when it came to interests.
The two families argued until late at night.
Ge Cuihua couldn't stay awake any longer and went back to her room to sleep first.
She would take out her precious box to look at it every night before bed, but this time when she pried open the wall tiles, the box inside had vanished.
Ge Cuihua's drowsiness vanished instantly.
A piercing scream rang out from inside the house.
"Ah! My box! Which bastard stole my things!"
Liu Zhuzi came in from outside carrying a basin of water for washing his face: "What's wrong?"
"My precious box is gone! All the good things in the house are inside!" Ge Cuihua said, turning around in shock.
"Look again carefully, did you forget where you put it?" Liu Zhuzi quickly put down the washbasin in his hand and stepped forward to help him look.
"Impossible, I've always kept it here. Someone must have taken it. Only the two of us know where I hide my money."
"No! Xiao Hai too, he saw him once." Ge Cuihua jumped up and went to find Liu Xiaohai.
Liu Xiaohai was sleeping soundly when he was suddenly jolted awake by having his ear grabbed.
I heard my grandma say that the money was lost.
His drowsiness vanished instantly, and he looked around nervously, stammering that he hadn't taken it.
Ge Cuihua personally cared for him a lot, and she could tell when the child was lying at a glance.
It really was him who took it!
"You brat, give me back my money!" Ge Cuihua slapped him on the head and said angrily.
Liu Xiaohai was on the verge of tears. Where could he get the money? He had already spent it all!
In fact, Liu Xiaohai had indeed stolen some money, but he only dared to take a few or ten yuan at a time, so Ge Cuihua never noticed.
Liu Xiaohai thought that Ge Cuihua had discovered he had stolen her change.
If he knew that Ge Cuihua was referring to all the money, he would definitely cry foul.
"Fang Fang, look at the good son you raised! He stole my money for my funeral and spent it all!" Ge Cuihua grabbed Liu Xiaohai by the ear and dragged him out of the yard.
Liu Xiangbei, Fang Fang, and Bai Ying were arguing fiercely about the shop.
"What's wrong with Mom?"
"What happened? Your son stole my money, what are you going to do about it!" When it comes to money, even the closest grandson becomes distant.
"Xiao Hai, did you take your grandma's money? Hurry up and take it back to your grandma!" Liu Xiangbei scolded, picking up his son.
"I...I can't pay it back, I've already spent it!"
"Oh God, what terrible things have I done?" Ge Cuihua plopped down on the ground and started crying.
Liu Xiangbei picked up a fire poker from the ground and hit Liu Xiaohai hard on the buttocks several times.
"Dad, stop hitting me, it hurts, it hurts..." Liu Xiaohai grimaced in pain.
"It's good that it hurts, let's see if you still want to cause trouble." Liu Xiangbei glared at him angrily, then said to Ge Cuihua in a gentle tone, "Mom, how much money did this kid take from you? I'll give it back to you, okay?"
Liu Xiangbei thought to himself that no matter how naughty this kid was, he would only dare to take a hundred or two hundred yuan at most.
Let's just give it to his mother to avoid her making a scene.
Ge Cuihua stood up with a whoosh: "You said it yourself. There are more than 18,000 yuan in my box, plus a few pieces of jewelry. I'll take a loss and give you 20,000 yuan in total!"
Although Ge Cuihua loved her third son, she was unhappy because they were all so eager to separate from her family today.
She enjoys the feeling of wielding power and controlling the family's finances. Now that her second and third sons want to defy her, she'll be ruthless.
Who cares about sons or grandsons? It's most comfortable to have money in your own hands.
And she really went easy on them; those two gold bars were worth a lot of money, and she didn't even ask them for a price.
"Mom, didn't you say you had no money? How come you have 20,000 yuan? This money must be divided up!" Bai Ying immediately seized on this and shouted for the money to be divided up.
Today is such a good day, everyone's secret stash of money has been revealed, Bai Ying is so happy.
"What?"
"What?"
"I don't…"
Liu Xiangbei, Fang Fang, and Liu Xiaohai spoke out together.
This number truly shocked the couple, and they almost fainted.
"I didn't, I only took a few dozen yuan." Liu Xiaohai jumped up despite the pain to speak up for himself.
"A few dozen yuan? You took my whole box and pot, and you still want to deny it!" Ge Cuihua led everyone into the house to search.
Liu Xiaohai was wrongly accused and was extremely anxious. He searched the house thoroughly but couldn't find the box. He kept muttering, "I really didn't have it. I only dare to take a few yuan each time."
Liu Xiangbei trusted his son. Although his son was a little cunning and might steal a few yuan to buy things, he wouldn't dare to steal all of his grandmother's belongings.
