"If Fengzi and I were kicked out of Er Gui Village, his land would all go to Xia Guagua’s family. Everyone doesn’t want to see their goodwill being used by others, right?"
Mu Shuangshuang’s skill of lying with open eyes wasn’t developed overnight.
After listening to Mu Shuangshuang’s words, Xia Guagua and Gu Jiulian were so furious they almost tore Mu Shuangshuang apart.
The villagers slowly started to understand the trick.
It’s also because Xia Guagua’s reputation isn’t good, her ssy affair with Wang Fugui has long been the talk of others over tea after als.
Even when they crawl under the quilt to do that thing, they’d talk about it a bit.
"Humph, so young yet so skilled at lying, doesn’t anyone care about my opinion, Ma Houhou?"
Ma Houhou, who had been silent, said loudly.
But is saying this still useful at this point?
The balance in the villagers’ hearts had already tipped; they trusted Mu Shuangshuang.
"Ma Houhou, that’s enough. Who doesn’t know you have a grudge with Shuang? Last ti you angered her until she coughed up blood."
"That’s right, Ma Houhou. Shuang and Fengzi being kicked out of Er Gui Village doesn’t benefit you either, unless you want to be exposed like Xia Guagua."
The villagers, one after another, spoke, and their words were surprisingly unanimous.
Gu Jiulian knew things were exposed, and the villagers didn’t believe them, so she simply dragged Xia Guagua towards her house.
"Mom, what are you doing? Let go of ." Xia Guagua shouted while struggling.
"Let go? You’re not embarrassed enough yet, are you? Hurry up and get back!"
Gu Jiulian just prayed at this mont that the Old Wang Family wouldn’t find out.
Her daughter hadn’t yet married but was ssing around with Wang Fugui. Hopefully, the Wang Family wouldn’t just kick her away.
Dragging Xia Guagua back to her room, Gu Jiulian pushed her in and locked the door from outside.
Xia Guagua was completely locked in the room.
"Mom, why are you locking ? Let out, let out..."
Gu Jiulian was determined to marry off Xia Guagua, and no matter how she cried out, she wouldn’t open the door.
...
...
Mu Shuangshuang ca over to save the day, and after saving the situation, naturally had to go back.
Besides, she hadn’t eaten yet.
"Fengzi, I’m heading back now. In the future, when you encounter this kind of woman raving, just leave it to !"
After all, a man shouldn’t hit a woman, and Mu Shuangshuang didn’t want Lu Yuanfeng to lose his dignity.
But she was different; she dared to say anything and do anything.
She had hit people; because of her young age, she would be forgiven, but Lu Yuanfeng was different.
If he laid a hand in front of the villagers, even a reasonable situation would turn unreasonable.
"Shuangshuang, why don’t you stay here and finish your al?" Lu Yuanfeng suddenly said.
The big pot of fish hadn’t been tasted by Lu Yuanfeng yet, but he knew it would be delicious.
Seeing Lu Yuanfeng’s hopeful eyes, Mu Shuangshuang couldn’t figure out how to refuse.
"Then I’ll eat here, but I need to be quick; my family is still waiting for ."
It only took a bowl of fish soup’s ti, and after drinking it, Mu Shuangshuang went back.
Lu Yuanfeng was also looking satisfied.
...
...
As night fell, the family of four tiptoed under the moonlight to their money hiding place, only to be dumbfounded upon arrival.
The dirt pit originally used to bury money had been opened, and not a single coin was left.
The family of four looked at each other, almost crying.
Twenty-eight copper coins; how many fish would have to be sold to earn that back?
The most important thing is, none of them knew who took it.
Mu Dajiang’s face turned instantly white, he was about to kneel down and call to heaven.
Who would have thought, at this ti, Old Mrs. Mu and Mrs. Lin suddenly stepped out from the shadows.
"Mom, I said the fourth room must have a secret hidden from us; the whole family ca here, must have hidden the money!"
Hiding money in the Old Mu Family was a taboo, and if caught, there was definitely no good outco.
Old Mrs. Mu tiptoed on her small feet straight to Mu Dajiang and jumped up, spitting a mouthful of phlegm onto Mu Dajiang’s face.
"Bah, how dare you hide money, you traitor! I’ll take your miserable lives!"
At this ti, Mr. Mu wasn’t around; Old Mrs. Mu didn’t care about anyone’s face, speaking without any restraint.
Mu Dajiang, already beaten down, couldn’t bear being scolded by Old Mrs. Mu. Sweat the size of soybeans fell from his forehead, looking completely like he had a dead face.
Old Mrs. Mu and Mrs. Lin happily went to pick up the money, only to find that the place was only a pile of dug-up dirt, nothing else.
Old Mrs. Mu didn’t see the fourth house digging anything, so they hadn’t moved beforehand. Since that was the case, it ant Mrs. Lin had lied.
"Good for you, Mrs. Lin, tricking out in the middle of the night; I must have been too nice to you, letting you think I’m easy to deceive."
Outside the yard, there was a noisy commotion; people who were asleep were woken up.
Mu Shuangshuang lit a lamp, just in ti to see a copper coin under the table. Without much thought, Mu Shuangshuang picked up the copper coin and got dressed.
At this mont, beside her family’s yard, Old Mrs. Mu was scolding Mrs. Lin, using particularly harsh words.
Mrs. Lin kept begging for forgiveness, saying she’d been wrong, the fourth room didn’t secretly hide money or anything.
Mu Shuangshuang thought of the copper coin in her pocket, it seed to still have a muddy feeling.
After a while, Old Mrs. Mu and Mrs. Lin went back.
All the mbers of the fourth room were still there, puzzled, suspicious, and despairing.
Mu Shuangshuang approached, unnoticed by everyone.
"What are you doing?" Mu Shuangshuang asked.
Mu Dajiang shook his head, refusing to speak. As for Mrs. Liu, she looked half alive.
Mu Shuangshuang tentatively asked, "Did you lose money?"
The three of them, six eyes, stared at her as if she had done sothing major.
Mu Shuangshuang instantly understood.
It must be Little Black, who is attracted to money and, upon seeing silver here, dug it all up.
"Shuangshuang, you..." Mu Dajiang said cautiously, afraid to offend Shuangshuang.
That money was what she gave them.
Although they sold fish, if Shuangshuang didn’t help sell it, they wouldn’t earn a single penny.
"I didn’t take your money; I know who did."
"Who?" Mu Xiaxia asked.
"Wait here, I’ll go call it; it should be asleep now."
Little Black had long stopped sleeping in its little house; ever since Lai Mi ca around, Little Black wandered everywhere, unafraid of being caught, as Lai Mi took the risks for it.
Mu Shuangshuang went in and gave Little Black a good scolding, making it hiss non-stop.
Reluctantly, Little Black spat out the twenty-seven copper coins; the remaining one was in Mu Shuangshuang’s hand.
The matter was successfully resolved; the fourth room got their money and avoided having it taken by Old Mrs. Mu.
Just two days later, sothing big happened in the Old Mu Family; Mu Danian, who usually bounced around, suddenly disappeared. For two whole days, it was as if he’d vanished.
Mu Shuangshuang started to wonder if that ti Lu Yuanfeng tossed him into the river and drowned him.
