Chapter 40 How could you steal things from the house?
The group looked at Lin Jinbao's ashen face.
"What's wrong with you now?"
"Mom and Dad, I... I didn't finish sending out all the red envelopes. I counted and there should have been more than ten yuan left, but it's all gone. Even the cigarettes and matches in my pocket are gone."
Meanwhile, Lin Yue'e, who was taking stock of today's spoils in the space, first took out the money she had received from the Lin family.
Li Chunlan's side has all new clothes, new shoes, and new bedding.
Inside the red silk-covered quilt was a roll of "Great Unity" coupons, along with grain coupons, cloth coupons, and several industrial coupons.
She doesn't lack money right now; everything is cheap these days. Lately, she's been going to that old lady in town every now and then to sell some grain and vegetables, earning a few dozen yuan here and there. That's enough for her to live on.
In addition, there were the gold earrings and bracelets I saw earlier, which were all given to me by Gu Jingyan.
That shameless Zhang Guifen actually wanted them all, and now she's given them back to Li Chunlan. She'll keep them and sell them later when they're more valuable.
In addition, the things Zhang Guifen received were mostly clothes, and they were all old. There was a tin box inside, and when they opened that tin box and poured out the contents, there was more money than Li Chunlan had found.
It cost over 200 yuan, and included a huge pile of tickets.
These banknotes were basically obtained little by little from Lin Yue'e by Zhang Guifen in the past.
Lin Yue'e happily harvested another batch of grain and vegetables, then went to check on the two wild boars she was raising. In just half a month, they had grown to knee-high.
Because they are kept in captivity, their diet consists mainly of eating and sleeping, so they are much less aggressive. They ignore her when they see her.
Unfortunately, she still hasn't been able to buy chicks recently. She heard that usually the village collects the information and then buys them all at once. The commune doesn't have any either.
Just as she was getting ready to sleep, she heard a loud banging on the front door. Lin Yue'e had no choice but to come out of her spatial dimension.
I heard shouting outside as soon as I stepped out of the yard.
"Lin Yue'e, come out here! How could you steal things from the house? You heartless wretch! You're utterly lawless! You've stolen all the money and clothes from the house! You're making life unbearable for everyone!"
That voice was unmistakably Zhang Guifen's.
It's true that Lin Yue'e stole all the items, but do you have any evidence? You're just making things up. Anyway, she can't admit to it.
"Don't talk nonsense. When did I steal anything from your house? It's always your family that steals from me. You're really trying to shift the blame."
Lin Yue'e peeked out through the crack in the door. Standing outside was the entire Lin family, including her newlywed wife, Li Chunlan.
They all stared at their own front door with expressions of deep resentment and bitterness.
"What do you want? What are you all doing in my house?"
Lin Yue'e is not prepared to open the door now.
"Open the door."
Lin Xiangqian spoke up.
"We'll find out if you stole anything from the house by searching it. The house has been burgled; your sister-in-law's room is full of things missing, and our clothes and money are gone from the closet too. Yue'e, how could you do this? Haven't you been good to us? We've raised you since you were a child. How could you do such a thing?"
Lin Xiangqian and the others later discovered that all the things in their pockets were gone. Zhang Guifen then anxiously went to check if the things in her room were still there. When she opened the two bedside tables, they were empty, not a single thing was left.
They couldn't understand how their things got lost, because everything was locked and they had the keys with them the whole time.
They couldn't figure it out, but they still wanted to get their belongings and money back. The whole family decided to go to Lin Yue'e's place to see if she was up to something and had stolen everything from their house.
Hearing Lin Xiangqian's words, Lin Yue'e only found them laughable.
"Mom and Dad, how can you say that? You need evidence to prove whether I stole anything or not. Did any of you see me take anything from your house today? It's hilarious! You won't return my hundred yuan, which I accepted as a gift, and now things are missing from the house, and you don't even bother to investigate before assuming I took them. If you're so capable, go find the police to investigate this matter. I'm not opening the door. It's getting dark, I'm going to sleep."
Lin Yue'e showed no intention of opening the door and told them to go find the police.
The family members exchanged glances.
"She's too scared to open the door, so she must have taken it."
Looking at the house, which was far superior to the wedding home the Lin family had prepared for her and Lin Jinbao, Li Chunlan's desire to seize the house from her sister-in-law and live there herself resurfaced. After all, the accusation of theft was going to be pinned on her anyway.
"Yes, sister, stop it! Open the door! There are so many things in the house, how can you just take them like that? They're the lifeblood of the whole family! Sister, please, just give them back!"
Lin Jinbao stepped forward and patted the door panel again.
"Why are you begging her? She's an ingrate. Lin Yue'e, I'm warning you, open the door right now. Let us search you properly, otherwise, do you think we really wouldn't dare to report you to the police?"
Zhang Guifen held her son's hand.
"Go and call the village chief over now. Let the village chief make decisions for our family."
If she doesn't open the door, we'll take it down with us. Once we're inside, we'll beat her to a pulp.
As soon as Zhang Guifen spoke, Lin Jinbao immediately agreed and headed towards the village chief's house.
"It's no use calling anyone. I didn't take anything from your house. Go back now. Don't you know what time it is? It's already so dark. I'm pregnant, I don't have the energy to waste time with you."
"Sister, today is my first day married into this family! You can't do this! What do you want? Just say it! You're stealing everything without even asking. Is this how you behave?"
Li Chunlan started crying as she spoke. All the things she brought with her when she got married were gone. How could she not be heartbroken? She didn't know who stole them, but now that she had no targets, she figured she could at least get something back by catching one.
Moreover, Lin Jinbao said that after that educated youth Gu left, he must have left something for this sister-in-law.
Even if there's really nothing left, they can still snatch this house away.
"Bullshit! Li Chunlan, I gave you a hundred yuan as a wedding gift today. Why would I steal your things? Even if you insist I stole them, who saw me? I left right in front of you, and I haven't left the house since. How could I have stolen everything from your house? Are your things so easy to steal? Are they just lying around on the street?"
The argument between the two parties disturbed the residents in the surrounding area.
Everyone was still awake, and now they all came out to watch.
"Yue'e, what's wrong? Who did you argue with?"
The neighbor's sister-in-law poked her head over the wall and asked a question.
"Who else could it be? My parents lost some things from their house, and now they're accusing me of stealing them. Isn't it ridiculous? They're always the ones taking things from my house, and now it's the other way around. They won't stop until they get my house. I'm starting to doubt if I'm even their biological daughter. What kind of parents are these, pushing their own daughter to the brink of death?"
Who doesn't cry? Lin Yue'e also looked heartbroken.
