Honey blinked its big eyes. "Oh no, I forgot about that! Right, who bought the bomb for her?"
"Will the person who bought the bomb for her help her escape? I'll set up a spatial portal for you!"
It quickly set up a spatial passage for Li Xiyue.
Li Xiyue traveled directly from the spatial passage to behind a large tree near the Mu family's gate.
She leaned against a big tree and peered out towards the entrance of the Mu family's house.
You won't believe it until you see it!
Her lips twitched slightly as she said, "Holy crap, what's going on? The Mu family is surrounded three layers deep!"
Mi Bao said, "Tsk tsk! They're all jumping up and down cursing those two sisters! Hahaha!"
It's true what they say, karma comes back to bite them! They deserve it! They've incurred the wrath of the masses!
It seems Li Xiulan has a very good reputation in this alley; everyone speaks well of her!
Li Xiyue said, "Of course! My mother-in-law is a very kind person. She's always there to help anyone in need. It's a shame she gave birth to these two troublemakers; they're a real misfortune for our family!"
Mi Bao said, "Judging from the situation, no matter who comes, it's impossible for them to take Li Yin away. They can't even squeeze in!"
Li Xiyue's X-ray vision penetrated the wall and allowed her to see into the courtyard.
Mu Jiuchun, Mu Jiuhong, and Li Yan were sitting in the room with only one bowl of noodles in front of them. Mu Jiuhong was serving the noodles.
She clearly hadn't divided the food properly; the three of them were arguing about who should eat more!
Li Xiyue chuckled, "Looks like there's no food at home, and we can't go out to buy any, so we're starving at home!"
Honey said, "Serves them right! Why didn't you just let them starve to death!"
It ran out of the space, climbed up the tree, stood on the high branch and looked into the distance, where it saw the police officers coming on motorcycles.
It said to Li Xiyue, "They're here! Captain Liu and the others are here. Li Yan is definitely not going to escape this time! Hahaha!"
Inside the room, Li Yan stared longingly at the noodles mixed with lard.
Although this noodle dish is incredibly simple, made with just a little bit of leftover lard and soy sauce, it's their only food!
The house was surrounded by people, three layers deep, and they couldn't buy anything at the cooperative.
What does it mean to be afraid of what others say?
Now, Mu Jiuhong, Mu Jiuchun, and Li Yan finally understand this idiom!
Mu Jiuhong had given her daughter a little too much, but Mu Jiuchun immediately objected and insisted on taking the extra portion.
Li Yan naturally disagreed, as she was starving. "Auntie? I'm your own niece. What's wrong with me eating one more bite?"
"I'm so small, still growing! You're such a grown-up, what's wrong with missing a bite? If you lose a piece of flesh, you'll just look thinner!"
Mu Jiuchun said, "Pah! At such a young age, she's already competing with her aunt for food!"
Who wants to be thinner? It's easier to find a husband if you're sturdy! If you're as skinny as a bean sprout, no one will want you when you get married!
"Big sister, you can't be unfair! I'm your sister, she's your daughter, we're both blood relatives!"
Mu Jiuhong's brows furrowed into knots. When had she ever suffered like this?
Since marrying Li Wenbo, she has been living a life of luxury at home.
Although Li Wenbo had no feelings for her, he was very polite to her out of respect for Li Yan and was very generous with money towards her!
She said, "What's there to argue about? It's just a bowl of noodles with lard, look at your pathetic self!"
Mu Jiuchun slammed her hand on the table. "Big sister, who are you yelling at? If you're so capable, give me your share!"
Mu Jiuchun said, "Alright, alright, there were just too many people gathered here today. We'll figure out how to go out and buy groceries tomorrow, then we'll have food to eat! I'll redistribute the food so everyone gets the same amount!"
Mu Jiuchun stared at Mu Jiuhong's chopsticks, almost counting the noodles in every single bowl.
They were so hungry that they hadn't had a proper meal since yesterday!
The three of them finally managed to divide the noodles equally, and just as they picked up their bowls to eat, a police siren suddenly sounded outside the courtyard gate.
Mu Jiuchun quickly shoveled the noodles into her mouth, then turned to look at the courtyard gate. "That's strange, why do I hear police sirens? Did you hear them?"
Li Yan finished her noodles and said, "I heard a police siren. What happened? I hope something happened to our neighbor too!"
Everyone went to watch that family, and then there was no one in front of our house, so we could go out and buy things!
Mu Jiuhong left the room, still worried. She stood in front of the courtyard gate, listening carefully, wanting to hear more clearly.
Mu Jiuchun followed her out, and Li Yan, without saying a word, picked up her mother's bowl of noodles and shoveled it all into her mouth.
She was so hungry! She had never been hungry before, and she couldn't stand this kind of hunger!
But why are there sirens?
She pondered for a moment, and a bad feeling flashed through her mind: Could it be Sun Dashan...?
However, she dismissed the idea the next second. It had been several days since she told Sun Dashan about the gold bars the Li family had.
Sun Dashan didn't take any action, but she saw him stealing things from the streets and alleys every day.
She secretly cursed Sun Dashan for being incompetent, not daring to steal gold bars even though they had them!
Actually, she regretted it when she got back that day. She felt that she had acted impulsively and shouldn't have gone to find Sun Dashan herself. What if Sun Dashan was arrested and betrayed her?
Fortunately, Sun Dashan didn't move, so she was relieved!
Just as she was lost in thought, there was a loud knocking on her courtyard gate.
Mu Jiuhong quickly asked, "Who is it?"
A man's voice came from outside the door, "It's me, Captain Liu. We've met before! Open the door."
Mu Jiuhong asked in surprise, "Captain Liu, you wanted to see me? What's up?"
She pondered this over and over, wondering if it was because of her mother.
Her affair with his mother has already been reported in the newspapers, and it's possible that the police will come looking for her because of it.
She couldn't think of anything else besides this.
She unlatched the door and opened it.
Captain Liu led a dozen or so men into the courtyard and immediately closed the gate.
Mu Jiuhong was startled. If Captain Liu had come to see her because of her mother's matter, it seemed unnecessary to make such a big fuss!
She said, "Captain Liu, what are you doing? Did my mother go to you to report a case?"
I am her own daughter. It is perfectly legal for me to live in her house, and she cannot kick me out!
She's distorting the truth and making false accusations!
Captain Liu said, "I didn't come here for this matter. Where is your daughter, Li Yan?"
Mu Jiuhong said, "Li Yan is in the room. Why are you asking about my daughter?"
Captain Liu said, "Let her out! I need to talk to her!"
Upon hearing these words, Li Yan, who was in the room, instantly showed a look of terror in her eyes...
