"Even if something really happens to the Peng family at this point, my grandfather has already donated the house, and I have no intention of getting it back. I just don't want to see my grandfather's hard work wasted."
Besides, the Peng family has been able to act so arrogantly for so many years; they can't possibly be without powerful backers, right?
"Uh, yes, there is someone whose status is comparable to Grandpa Qin's."
Yang He glanced at Qin Qinghuai,
"Actually, Grandpa Qin probably knows a little bit about it, but in recent years, that person has been very powerful. It's not that no one has wanted to bring him down, but now they have all disappeared."
Moreover, given the current situation, even if the Peng family were truly crippled, it wouldn't fundamentally damage them; at most, it would just deprive them of a source of income.
At this moment, I am incredibly clear-headed.
"We're not picky. A wallet is a wallet. Letting the other party feel the pain isn't a bad thing."
Even if it's a centipede, cutting off one of its legs will make it bleed a little and feel some pain, so we've still come out ahead.
Since the other party has deep roots and extensive connections, we will proceed cautiously and gradually.
The longer it goes on, the more flaws will be revealed. As for evidence, let's keep it to ourselves. This one thing is like a tickle, two things are nothing, and three things don't matter. So let's just keep it to ourselves.
Little by little, it adds up; even an ant trying to shake a tree.
When the evidence is overwhelming enough to kill someone, let's see who dares to let them off easily.
"You're not in a hurry anymore?"
Yang He was taken aback. Just a moment ago he was banging on the table, but now he's calm and articulate.
"Why should I be in such a hurry? How could a mere educated youth like me care about such a big parasite?"
This is the responsibility of the government and the military.
I was just a young intellectual sent to the countryside. Now, I'm a military wife. I'm only a little angry because the house my ancestors gave up was seized by evil people.
I need to go ask the neighborhood committee and the government. Such a large courtyard, the original certificate clearly states that it was donated to the government for use as government offices and for entertaining guests. What, can the Peng family represent the government, or are they VIP guests of the government?
What does anything else have to do with me?
Yes, in that short time, Jian Dan had already found the donation certificate for the courtyard in the pile of documents. It clearly stated that the donation was for personal use and could not be used for personal living or enjoyment. Even if the government wanted to use this to reward the meritorious person, it would be a bit unreasonable.
Yang He stared at Qin Qinghuai, dumbfounded and with a twitching mouth. His sister-in-law's fighting power seemed, really, quite extraordinary.
But that's just talk. Since it's already been donated, Jian Dan naturally doesn't worry about who it belongs to. Even if it's just left there to grow weeds, it's none of her business anymore.
As the two left, Yang He was still a little worried and followed them closely to the door.
"Are you sure you don't need me to come along? You haven't been back for so long, is the person you found reliable?"
Having lived in Beijing for over thirty years, he has some connections.
Qin Qinghuai patted his shoulder, too embarrassed to say it. With his wife around, who else would he need? He'd have to step aside.
"Don't worry about it. You should go back and get us some more roast duck. We'll come pick it up tomorrow morning. Brother Chao is waiting to eat it."
"But,"
Simplely, she pulled the person down the steps.
"Don't worry, Fourth Brother, I promise we'll both be safe and sound when we meet tomorrow."
Despite saying he was relieved, Qin Qinghuai's worries were still there. As they drove towards the East District, his brow remained furrowed. Even a seasoned shrew like him was helpless if his opponent knew nothing about him.
Simple is a completely relaxed approach. She has already planned out the general process. When it's late at night and everyone is asleep, she can save on medication and the energy required for hiding and escaping.
It's been a long time since I've done this kind of robbery, so I might be a little rusty, but there's a strange excitement coursing through my veins.
After meeting Zhu Yan and Chen Hongjun, and finally managing to refuse their invitation to stay for dinner, it was already getting dark.
That afternoon, Jian Dan didn't mention the Peng family at all. It was he who was constantly on edge, and as he followed Jian Dan outside, he tentatively asked...
"Wife, what are your plans regarding the Peng family?"
"ah?"
Simple was having a great time playing by stepping on his shadow when he heard this, and thought for a moment.
"Didn't you say so? Didn't I say so?"
"...Let them lose what's most important? Are you really planning to take it all?"
“Sigh, I understand what Fourth Brother is saying. Given the current situation, the other party has deep roots and a powerful background. It would be unwise for us to confront them openly. If we are not careful, we might drag Mom and Dad into this. Even if we manage to clear their name, their reputation for most of their lives will definitely be affected.”
It's not worth it.
Moreover, to be honest, they don't have any deep-seated hatred towards me. I'm angry about two things: one is that they occupied this house, and the other is what my fourth brother said about them keeping a lot of things, such as antiques and books. That's what I came here for.
Of course, it's not to say that everyone who vandalized the property was a bad person, but even if I got it back, I couldn't return it openly and honestly. Besides, some things simply can't be brought into the light these days.
This is destined to be a mess.
Here's what I was thinking: it's a waste for them to keep the stuff; who knows what kind of scheme they might be plotting? So we'll go through the trouble of taking it back and giving it to our older brother to handle. We can use it all as a fund for our construction project. Isn't that perfect?"
Qin Qinghuai was surprised that she had already figured out how to allocate the resources in such a short time, and couldn't help but chuckle.
"Do you think the Peng family would react if they knew what you were thinking?"
"No, they won't have a chance to find out who took it anyway. This kind of unknown fear is the most tormenting. They don't dare to say what's missing. Even if they investigate, they can only keep quiet and investigate on their own."
