Grandma Fang went back to her room, muttering something under her breath, probably not something good.
talk.
Wan Yindi watched as she stuffed the envelope into her pocket, hesitant to speak, reluctant to leave.
Shen Qianqian didn't care what she wanted to do. She went back to the small room, took out the envelope, and started counting the money.
Hey, there's twenty yuan inside!
She had previously considered asking Su Qiang for medical expenses, but Su Qiang was a lazy bum who often relied on the brigade to provide him with some grain. Even if they sold the scrap metal from the educated youth settlement, they couldn't scrape together more than a few yuan. It was already quite an achievement to get this tough nut to go to jail.
I can't believe this scoundrel actually has savings!
Of the entire brigade, only the original owner was the most obedient.
Shen Qianqian fiddled with the banknotes and took out one of them, a "Great Unity" note.
The compensation was paid, the fraudsters were brought to justice, and the Yu family suffered greatly—all of this was rightfully theirs, but she was no longer there… As for Shen Jia and Ruan Yuan, who were far away in the capital and Hong Kong respectively…
Don't worry, I will fulfill your wish and go see them for you.
She lay in the small room for a while when Old Mrs. Fang pushed the door open and came in.
Shen Qianqian immediately sat up: "Don't think you can skip knocking just because you're here to return the money. I'll put a stone on top of the door and see if it bleeds!"
Grandma Fang was startled and quickly looked up at the top of the door, but there was nothing there. However, she dared not doubt Shen Qianqian's words any longer; this evil spirit was truly capable of any kind of wicked thing!
Shen Qianqian was blunt: "Where's the money? Grandma, I wasn't lying to the police just now. If you keep delaying, your crime will be compounded."
There was no table in the small room. Old Mrs. Fang had a cold face and really wanted to throw the money over, but in the end she used her old hand to place it steadily on the side of the bed. Experience told her that it was best not to have a conflict with this devil.
"Here's three hundred yuan. That's all the money my family can afford..."
"What the hell? Three hundred yuan?!"
Shen Qianqian stood up abruptly, glaring angrily at Old Lady Fang.
"Thirteen years, five thousand four hundred and sixty yuan, and you only give me three hundred yuan? Are you trying to fob me off like a beggar?"
Woolen cloth?"(
"Don't give me that story about your family's financial difficulties; I'm not buying it! No matter how difficult things are for you, it's nothing compared to my situation."
"It's tough! I'm starving and freezing, and you're trying to play the victim with me? Who in this family is worse off than me?!" ("I'm telling you, you're going to pay me back every penny you've spent on me!")
66......)9
The stingy and mean-spirited old lady Fang has finally met her match. If the police hadn't come today, she wouldn't have planned to pay back the money.
She thought that Shen Qianqian might never have seen so much money in her life, and that three hundred yuan would be enough to fool her. She really couldn't bear to take out all her money; giving away three hundred yuan felt like tearing her heart out!
Unexpectedly, Shen Qianqian has quite an appetite; she doesn't even care about three hundred yuan!
She genuinely believed that Shen Qianqian would complain. If she hadn't stopped her in time, the other party would definitely have exposed the matter, and how would the Yu family maintain their standing in the Wuxing Production Brigade afterward?
Grandma Fang was exhausted; she felt she had worried herself sick over this family!
While preparing lunch in the kitchen, Wan Yindi kept a close eye on the small house and saw her mother-in-law go back and forth to the main house twice with a dark expression. The last time, she took this bulging little bag to Chen Qianqian's room.
There's definitely money inside!
Wan Yindi was so greedy he wanted to cry. He never expected that Shen Qianqian, who usually didn't utter a word, would actually manage to squeeze money out of her mother-in-law.
I wonder how much the mother-in-law has given to the eldest son's family over the years. They are both sons and daughters-in-law, so why is this old woman so biased?
Wan Yindi was seething with hatred. She couldn't take the money, but she could drink the chicken soup!
While Grandma Fang was still out, Wan Yindi gritted her teeth and gulped down several mouthfuls of chicken soup. Inside the room.
Shen Qianqian was counting money, her fingers moving nimbly, counting very quickly, with a stack of bills next to her.
Old Mrs. Fang standing nearby felt as if her heart had been torn in two. "It hurts so much! My money!" she cried. "Two thousand three hundred and fifty-five yuan?"
Grandma Fang: "...We've raised you for thirteen years, and those thirteen years of food, clothing, shelter, and transportation must have cost a fortune."
Shen Qianqian scoffed: "How dare you say such a thing to outsiders? In these thirteen years, I haven't had a single full meal. My clothes are hand-me-downs from you. I started helping with chores the year my parents left. Yu Linyang and Yu Linyun went to school, but I was still working. Are you sure you want to hold this against me?"
Grandma Fang definitely wasn't going to honestly return all the money. Shen Qianqian guessed that the other party probably still had some hidden away, but not much. The eldest branch of the family must have used this living allowance, for example, for her eldest uncle's workstation at the factory, and for Yu Linsen's bicycle...
However, Shen Qianqian doesn't like to push people to the brink.
Anyway, she'll get back everything she owes her later.
Shen Qianqian put the money and tickets aside, and her expression softened when she looked at Grandma Fang: "Grandma, I'm not an ungrateful person. If I really wanted to pursue this matter of money, you and Grandpa would be in jail by now. Although I have no blood relation with the Yu family, I've called you Grandma for eighteen years. To me, you are my family. Consider the money you didn't take out as my filial piety to you. As long as your Yu family doesn't anger me in the future, we can all live in peace."
"Take today's breakfast for example, just two eggs. Do you think I can get full? I definitely can't. If I'm not full today, I'll eat chicken. If I'm not full tomorrow, I'll still eat chicken. If I'm not full the day after tomorrow, I'll kill all the chickens."
Shen Qianqian spoke casually, leaving Old Lady Fang completely stunned.
She seemed unable to see Old Mrs. Fang's face; her dark little face revealed a set of white teeth.
The next day, Shen Qianqian got up early, which was unusual for her. After eating two eggs and drinking a bowl of porridge, she went straight to the home of the brigade leader, Lin Dongsheng, and happened to run into the Lin family eating.
Shen Qianqian didn't go in immediately; she knocked on the door from the outside. "Good morning, Uncle Lin."
Lin Dongsheng came out with a large flatbread and stuffed it into Shen Qianqian's hand. "Have you eaten? How's your head been these past few days?"
Lin Dongsheng was barely passable as the captain because he didn't manage things very well.
Shen Qianqian accepted the flatbread and gave a wry smile: "Uncle, I came to see you about this. I still feel a bit of a headache. I've finished the medicine I brought back, and I want to go to the hospital to get it checked out. Just yesterday, the police delivered the medical expenses that Su Qiang paid, so I have money to see a doctor. That's why I wanted to borrow your bicycle."
Her tone was ordinary, but considering her background and situation, it was heartbreaking.
Although he was very curious whether the Yu family had actually paid back the money, Lin Dongsheng, who didn't like to meddle in other people's business, kept his mouth shut.
"Can you ride a bike? Otherwise, go home and wait. I'll take you to the county at noon."
The brigade has bicycles, but they belong to the public and anyone can rent them. The bicycles are rarely idle, so Shen Qianqian came directly to the Lin family to borrow one.
Shen Qianqian: "I've ridden my older cousin's bike before, I know how to ride it." Lin Dongsheng was a little skeptical, but he still took the bike out.
