Chapter 329 - 34 Unexpected News
"So you decided to come over on your own?" Shen Chi asked with a dark face.
"No," Shen Xiu shook her head, "it was Jiahui who asked me to come."
It seemed she feared her family might misunderstand, so she wiped her tears and said, "Recently, Cheng Jiajian had the fan on and Tiantian caught a cold, getting a low fever at night. I was taking care of him in his room, and Fu Chunmei took the opportunity to try to get into bed. My mother-in-law even locked our room door from the outside. Jiahui was so angry that he threw Fu Chunmei out the window. But my mother-in-law didn’t reflect on her actions at all. She took advantage of me going out to buy groceries to pry open our drawers and take the property deed and savings book. The three of them ganged up on me, and I couldn’t get them back. Later, when Jiahui came back, in the struggle, the property deed and the savings book were torn."
Her countenance improved slightly as she continued, "They don’t know that the property deed and the savings book can be reissued; they still think the house and money have gone for good. Jiahui used this to our advantage, saying, ’With the money gone and the house gone, you all wait to be kicked out.’"
"He told me to come first, and after making arrangements, he would also come here so they would think we came to the Capital to seek help from my family because we couldn’t stay in Z Province any longer. He said they fear being chased and threatened by people every day and sooner or later, they won’t be able to endure and shamefully go back. It’s just that with us not at home, it’s inevitable that our things at home will be tampered with."
"After suffering so much bullying, why did you only speak up now?" Luo Yufang said somewhat displeased.
"I couldn’t explain clearly over the phone, and I was afraid you would tell me to endure," Shen Xiu said a bit sheepishly.
"Fool, we wouldn’t tell you to endure such a thing. If we knew you were in such a situation, we might even have come personally," Lin Xiaoguai said, gently patting her head.
