Chapter 29: There was no one at home yesterday afternoon, why was it stolen?

Old Man Liu finished the last puff and said while knocking the tobacco ash: "With the scene today, do you think the second daughter-in-law would compromise? Rather than having a restless family in the future, it is better to divide them out early, which can also save the family from being dragged down."

Old Woman Liu showed disapproval: "Seeing that Chuxue girl is about to graduate, can't we wait a few more months? Didn't we agree before that her bride price money would be used for Dongzi to marry a wife?"

Old Man Liu inserted the dry tobacco bag into his waist: "How can you occupy all the good things? We didn't pay a cent for the second son's medical treatment. Do you think the second branch will let you move that money? Besides, didn't the eldest couple say that Dongzi's job has a place? When the time comes, there will be many good girls who want to marry Dongzi. Are you afraid you won't be able to marry a good one?"

Hearing this, Old Woman Liu felt much better: "That's right, our Dongzi looks good. If he has a job, I'm sure our family's threshold will be trampled."

But what she didn't know was that her grandson's job was just a big cake painted by the eldest couple for them. If they didn't complete the task assigned by others, where would the job come from?

At the same time, Ge Xiulan, who was working in the field, was absent-minded while doing the work in her hands, and whispered to her husband next to her: "Father is really something. He didn't even discuss it and directly divided the second branch out, not even letting us speak."

Liu Shangang's face was not much better: "You don't know, Father is the one who pays the most attention to face. If he didn't make a choice today, do you think the second branch's wife would give up?"

"Then what about our Dongzi's job?"

Speaking of this, Liu Shangang's face was even worse: "How did you handle the matter? Didn't you say it was foolproof? Why did that dead girl appear at home safe and sound?"

Ge Xiulan looked around guiltily and lowered her voice even more: "I clearly drugged her and sent her up the mountain. I am also puzzled how she came back."

"Did anyone see you when you took action yesterday?"

"No, no, absolutely no one knows about this."

She wouldn't say that her nephew was involved in this, and she wouldn't let her husband know that she was hitting the idea of that dead girl Chuxue.

Liu Shangang let out a long breath: "Things are already like this, find another chance. Anyway, she will always come back in a few days."

Before they finished speaking, they heard a shout from afar: "Shangang's wife, someone from your maiden home is looking for you."

Just in time, a shout came from afar: "Eldest Aunt."

Ge Xiulan stopped her movements, and her heart trembled: "Why do I hear the voice of Baocheng from my eldest brother's house?"

Liu Shangang frowned and looked into the distance, feeling a burst of annoyance: "Running so urgently, it must not be a good thing."

Saying that, he stuck the hoe in his hand on the ground and waited for the person to come over.

Not seeing her nephew this morning, Ge Xiulan felt strange. She threw away the farm tools in her hands and greeted him directly: "San, why didn't you come over this morning?"

"Eldest Aunt, the house was stolen."

"What?"

"My grandma's room, as well as the kitchen and the backyard, were stolen."

At this time, Liu Shangang also came over: "When did this happen?"

"It was discovered yesterday evening. My grandma was so angry that she fainted directly. The family was in a mess and couldn't take care of anything else. She only woke up this morning. The family was afraid that my grandma would think too much, so they asked me to come over and call Eldest Aunt to go back and comfort my grandma."

Hearing this, Ge Xiulan's face changed instantly, and she said anxiously: "There was no one at home yesterday afternoon, why was it stolen?"
