Chapter 122: Criticize Indirectly
Li Guangyuan coaxed with a gentle voice, "It’s not necessarily them who took it. What if you remember it wrong? Both Dongmei and Hongmei are not at home now. What do you want me to say to my mom? If it turns out you remembered wrong, it’s going to be so awkward for the whole family."
"I couldn’t possibly remember it wrong. I clearly put 120 yuan in here, and now there’s only 100 yuan. This is the hard-earned money of us both. We don’t even have vegetables to sell now; we are counting on using this money as capital to do other businesses."
Li Guangyuan seemed unconcerned. In this freezing weather, what other business could they possibly do? It’s better to have a good rest, stay home for the winter, and wait until spring next year when the vegetables are ready again to continue selling.

"A hundred yuan is enough to do other businesses."
"It’s not about whether it’s enough or not, it’s that they are stealing my money again. What did you promise me last time, have you forgotten?"
Li Guangyuan got a bit impatient, "I’ve told you, maybe you remembered wrong. All this talk about stealing, it’s so unpleasant when family talks like this."
"When I say stealing, you find it unpleasant. Why didn’t you find it distasteful when they did it? I’m their sister-in-law, going through my stuff without my permission is stealing..."

The noise just now was from her setting down the chicken feeding pan.
"Day after day, not laying a single egg, yet you still have the face to strut around here? Fed and cared for every day, what more do you want? Are you some kind of golden phoenix or what..."
