Chapter 100 I Want to Donate My Property
"Who said it was Qiao'er who just got married? It was me and Jiuzhen who got married. It's only natural for husband and wife to have sex. What business is it of yours!"
Ling Huan jumped out of bed, grabbed Zhou Jiuzhen's hand, and stood in front of the group.
The two were dressed in bright wedding attire.
One is big and one is small, one is tall and one is short.
A match made in heaven, a handsome man and a beautiful woman, a perfect couple that inspires envy.
Only then did everyone realize that Ling Huanwu was dressed in a wedding gown and actually looked like she had just completed the wedding ceremony. They then realized that the person who had just completed the ceremony had been switched out.
Zhou Shuyao stood frozen in place, as if struck by lightning a second time, almost splitting open.
He had just watched helplessly as Ling Huanwu married his elder brother again.
Qin Jinshen had already gritted his teeth to powder, and the tray in his hand had been crushed into wood chips, to be scattered as ashes.
What happened to the promise of plundering and taking without regard to any cost?
What kind of force is he using to seize things!
She sent the person she had lost to another man's bed again!
Qin Jin took a deep breath, trying to transform his anger into motivation.
But then Zhou Shuyao next to him let out a howl and, like a madman, grabbed his head and pushed his way through the crowd.
It was as if they had suffered some tremendous shock.
His sudden reaction startled everyone, who were already on the verge of conflict, causing them to shudder.
Everyone stared at Zhou Shuyao's retreating figure as if they were looking at a madman.
Qin Jinshen seemed to be deep in thought. He leaned over and whispered in the ear of the guard, "It seems that this kid died insane in his previous life. He had serious mental problems!"
"Yeah, he really does seem like a madman. What's so hard about that? Didn't he already know those two were a couple?"
The guard suddenly stopped speaking, his pupils dilated, and he turned to look at Qin Jinshen, "The...the previous life?"
"Grandpa... what do you mean? How did I die in my previous life?"
Qin Jinshen's expression immediately changed. Realizing he had let something slip, he replied guiltily, "I... how would I know..."
At that moment, a woman's loud yawn suddenly echoed from inside the bridal chamber.
"ha--"
The sound was coming from under the bed.
Everyone looked in the direction of the sound and saw a figure moving under the bed.
The next second, a woman dressed in the same wedding dress crawled out from under the bed, stretching and yawning loudly.
"Who's making so much noise? I was sleeping soundly!"
Ling Qiao'er's dissatisfied complaints were like thunderbolts striking the heads of her second uncle and youngest uncle.
When she raised her little lazy hand and realized that the room was full of people, she was so frightened that she quickly covered her wide-open yawning mouth.
Ling Huanwu smiled and looked at her second uncle, "Look, your precious granddaughter isn't here. I didn't hide her!"
The second uncle's face was ashen, and his cane pounded loudly on the floor. "It must have been you who broke into my house, drugged my granddaughter, stole my property, and even stole my granddaughter's husband!"
"Officer, you have to stand up for us! She broke into a private residence, committed theft, and was having an affair. You have to arrest her!"
The police officer nodded and looked at Ling Huanwu, but before he could ask any questions, a "Land and Property Ownership Certificate" silenced him.
"Look, this old courtyard house is now in my name. If I go back to my own house, is that considered trespassing?"
Before the police officer could even nod in response, Qin Jinshen, who was pretending to be a bystander in the crowd, raised his voice in support, "That doesn't count! That's called going home!"
Ling Huanwu took back her documents, praising her own foresight.
Before she came, she had anticipated that this group of ungrateful old people would pull this stunt, so she brought this document with her in advance.
She then raised her hand, which was clasped tightly with Zhou Jiuzhen's, looked around at the group of relatives and friends, and continued to ask, "If I sleep with my own man in my own home, does that count as having an affair?"
"It's not called having an affair, it's called sleeping with your own husband..."
Qin Jinshen's fake face revealed dimples as he smiled and echoed the cheers once again.
The moment the words left his mouth, he suddenly felt his tongue burn.
Realizing what she had said, the smile on her face gradually cracked, and then her whole heart shattered.
His sweetheart was slept with by her husband, why is he so upset?
The police officer standing nearby agreed, turning to the two elderly people who were turning pale with anger, "She's right, she didn't steal anything or anyone, we have no reason to take her away!"
This sentence infuriated the entire Ling family, causing them to jump up and down, shouting and yelling.
"How can it not be considered stealing? We bought all those things ourselves. If she takes them, that's stealing!"
"Just because our things are in her room doesn't mean they belong to her! Your judgment is unacceptable. Don't think we don't understand the law. I'm going to hire a lawyer and sue her. Not only do I want her to return our things, but I also want ten times the compensation for my antique vase!"
"And the little dress I just bought two days ago..."
"And mine too..."
A group of uncles, cousins, and other relatives jumped out, their faces contorted as they demanded compensation from Ling Huanwu, as if they wanted to tear her apart and force her to hand over her money.
Zhou Jiuzhen quickly shielded Ling Huanwu behind him, looking warily at the group of old and young people with ferocious faces, a chill running down his spine.
But it was only after this group of people revealed themselves that the friends and family watching suddenly realized what was going on.
"So this impressive house doesn't belong to their whole family? How can they have the nerve to have two families living here?"
"They used to brag that this house was theirs, that the whole family was rolling in money, but it turns out they were living in someone else's house!"
The entire Ling family felt incredibly ashamed upon hearing the surrounding whispers, wishing they could disappear into a hole in the ground.
Only the second uncle stubbornly argued, "My elder brother's things are our things. Their family doesn't have any sons, so shouldn't their things be inherited by our two families who are meant to carry on the family line?"
These words were like a bomb, leaving the relatives and friends outside utterly shocked and scrambled.
That's blatant robber logic. Does that mean if you don't have sons or grandsons, you can't own the house and the money?
Unable to bear it any longer, Zhou Jiuzhen struck out with his palm, breaking the only two tables in the room in half.
"Old man, do you think this is still your era? Nowadays, women can hold up half the sky. Are you saying that women are born without a home and don't even have the right to own property?"
"Of course!"
My second great-uncle answered with his head held high as if it were a matter of course, as if he were proud of being a man.
"Women are always outsiders in their husbands' families and guests when they go back to their parents' homes. Their children will grow up and start their own families!"
"Women are born with a lowly fate, without a home, drifting wherever they may, like dandelions. If they land in a fertile place, they will thrive in the wind; if they land in a barren place, they will suffer their whole lives. This house, if it falls into a woman's hands, is already given to outsiders. Therefore, this house belongs to the Ling family. You, a girl, have no right to inherit it, so the property certificate is invalid!"
My second uncle spoke with great passion and an air of self-righteousness.
All the women present lowered their heads and remained silent, as if acquiescing to his words.
Even the relatives and friends who had just mocked their second uncle for usurping their place fell silent, nodding as if they agreed with him.
Ling Huanwu trembled with anger. She looked around at the crowd and finally pulled out the female newspaper reporter who had been holding a camera. With a serious expression, she said, "Comrade, I ask you to be my witness!"
The female reporter was also quite angry about what the old man had said, and nodded with a righteous expression.
"Comrade, could you help me find a leader at the Cultural Relics Bureau?"
Ling Huanwu turned around and asked the police officer with a serious expression, then, amidst the puzzled gazes of the crowd, she said clearly and forcefully, "I want to donate my property!"
