Chapter 199: Scandal

Lin Laosan lectured both Lin Siniu and Liu Juhua. Liu Juhua dared to go head to head with Li Cuihua, but Lin Laosan was the head of the family. He was usually quiet, but he had some authority, so she was a little afraid of him and didn’t dare to talk back. After being yelled at by her father-in-law, Liu Juhua became quiet.

Lin Siniu came forward to pull his wife back. He turned to Lin Laosan and said, “Yes, father. I will teach my wife a good lesson.” However, His back had already been pinched black by Liu Juhua.

Lin Laosan nodded. He was quite satisfied with his fourth son’s words.

Then, his face turned cold when he remembered Li Cuihua yelling that all the money was gone. “How many did we lose?” He asked Li Cuihua sternly.

Usually, the family’s income was kept by Li Cuihua. In the past few years, because Lin Dazong had attended a private school, their expenses had been a little high. However, the Lin family was large. Coupled with the fact that they had been scrimping, they still had some spare money every year. They should have saved about twenty taels so far.

When Li Cuihua saw Lin Laosan’s expression, she immediately became timid. She whispered, “I... I lost everything!” She had hidden her money in several places, but everything was gone.

Lin Laosan’s face turned cold, and he shouted, “what did you say? Say that again!”

How was it possible to lose all of them?

There were more than twenty taels.

Lin Erniu’s wife, Zhou Guixiang, immediately exclaimed, “how is that possible?”

If they lost all their money, they would have to live on air.

Besides, that money was their family’s share. They had worked day and night to earn that money. Now that the money was lost, how could they let it go?

Li Cuihua was a little scared when she saw Lin Laosan’s gloomy face, but on second thought, she didn’t lose the money on purpose. Why should she be scared?

......

Li Cuihua immediately said angrily, “Lin Laosan, why are you angry at me? I didn’t lose the money on purpose. I’m also very angry that the money was lost, and my heart aches. Why are you angry at me?”

“So, is all the money gone?” Lin Laosan’s face darkened as he asked sternly.

“Yes!” Li Cuihua argued in anger, “how would I know that we’d be targeted by a thief?”

As an old couple who had been married for decades, Lin Laosan knew how Li Cuihua stored her money. Li Cuihua would put her money in several places. However, all the money had been stolen. This meant that the thief was very familiar with where she put her money.

Therefore, there were two possibilities.

First, the thief had his eyes on the Lin Family’s money for a long time already, so he knew exactly where Li Cuihua had hidden her money.

The second was there was a thief inside the house! People inside the house would know about Li Cuihua’s habit.

After analyzing the situation, Lin Laosan’s eyes immediately became sharp. He looked at his sons and daughters-in-law in the entire courtyard, trying to find some flaws in their expressions.

Then, he noticed that his eldest son’s and his fourth daughter-in-law’s eyes flickered guiltily for a moment. Lin Laosan’s heart sank.

Lin Laosan shouted at his sons and daughters-in-law in the courtyard, “Whoever took the money, you better admit it now. Otherwise, I won’t hesitate to punish you!”

The people in the courtyard looked at each other.

“Father, what do you mean?” Lin Erniu asked. “Are you saying that the money was taken by one of us?”

‘Damn it. If I had known this, I would have taken the money for myself first.’

Lin Daniu’s wife, Li Hehua, also came forward and asked anxiously, “father, is what you’re saying true? Was this money really stolen by one of the family members?” However, when she asked this question, her eyes were directed at Lin Sanniu’s family, who had been silent like a block of wood.

It was obvious that she was suspicious of Lin Sanniu’s family.

Then, Li Hehua turned to Lin Sanniu and asked sternly, “third brother, I saw some egg residue on Lin Dazu’s mouth yesterday. Tell me, did you guys steal money to buy good food without telling us?”

Since Lin Sanniu’s family was the family’s punching bag, Li Hehua pointed her finger at Lin Sanniu without any hesitation.
