Chapter 228 Dissolution of Engagement
"There's another thief? How long has it been silent?"
"That's right, our area is so poor, why are thieves thinking about it?"
"The worst thing is the old Zhou's family, who stole all the life-saving money, it's so wicked!"
"This thief boy who has been hacked into pieces will be killed when he is caught."
In the past few years, there have been thieves in the old street, and almost half of the people's homes have lost their property. Everyone has long complained about this. Now that the Ling family has been burglarized again, everyone is filled with righteous indignation.
"What are you doing, what are you doing around my door at noon?"
Seeing Li Li coming back, the neighbors stepped aside one after another, "Li Li, your house has been robbed, you should go back and have a look."
As soon as Li Li heard that there was a thief, Li Li hurried into the house, "Has the house been stolen? What have you lost?"
Seeing the two police officers looking at Li Li suspiciously, Ling Jiang quickly introduced, "Comrade Public Security, this is my wife."
Knowing that Li Li is the hostess of the house, one of the police officers walked up to her and questioned her.
"Did anyone come to the house recently?"
Li Li shook her head, "No, we are at home alone, no one else is here."
After speaking, Li Li couldn't help but asked the police, "My house was really burglarized?"
The public security officer said in a business-like tone, "We came to investigate the scene after receiving a report from your husband. You can check with your husband about what was lost."
Ling Jiang directly said to his wife: "There are 205 items missing at home, you should also go back to your room to see if you have lost any of your own things."
After hearing her husband's words, Li Li's heart skipped a beat.
Ling Chuan kept his wife's reminder in mind, and carefully observed Li Li's every move since she came home.
At this time, seeing Li Li's expression changed immediately after hearing that the goods were lost, she had a faint guess in her heart.
"Sister-in-law, do you know where the lost goods are?"
As soon as these words came out, the two public security officers and Ling Jiang all looked at Li Li in unison.
Li Li said with a smile: "Oh, it's all a misunderstanding. Those goods are not lost, but a friend came to me a few days ago and wanted to get some goods, so I gave them to him. I forgot to tell Lao Ling afterwards. , it’s all a misunderstanding, there was no thief at home.”
Knowing that it was just an oolong, the police severely criticized Li Li and left.
Seeing that there was no excitement to watch, the neighbors in the neighborhood also dispersed.
"Someone asked you to get the goods, why didn't you tell me first?"
After the police left, Li Li became more courageous. Facing her husband's questioning, she didn't take it seriously, "You are doing business outside every day, and no one is at home. What should I say?"
"Then why didn't you say anything when I came back at night?"
"I forgot, there are so many things every day, how can I remember so many things."
Hearing this, Ling Jiang stopped talking nonsense, and directly reached out to his wife, "Where's the money for selling the goods? Here."
"The family hasn't given me the money yet. I'll give it to you when I do."
"Who is the person who got the goods?"
"Why do you ask so many questions? You don't even know me after I tell you."
Seeing that the daughter-in-law was still playing a naughty rascal at this time, Ling Jiang was also angry, and roared: "Say! Who is it!?"
Li Li was taken aback, and looked at her husband in fear, "You, why are you so angry, I helped sell the goods not for this family, or you think I am willing to take care of your business."
Ling Jiang was so angry that his face turned blue, and he stared at Li Li fiercely.
"Don't think that you are the only one who is smart, and everyone else is a fool. If you don't take out the money today, this day will not be over. Get out of this house!"
Even though the two had quarreled fiercely before, and even wanted to divorce, her husband never said a word in front of her.
Li Li felt guilty and scared for a while, so she simply put on a posture of crying, making trouble, and hanging herself, trying to confuse her.
"Ling, do you have a conscience? When I married in, I didn't even have a piece of decent furniture in my house. Did I ever dislike you? Now that you are rich and your pockets are bulging, you want to drive me away. , you are so heartless and ungrateful, aren't you afraid of retribution and suffering..."
Listening to Li Li's crying, Ling Jiang felt no guilt or intolerance, only sadness.
"Aren't I suffering retribution now? I owed something in my previous life to marry a lazy, greedy and selfish woman like you!"
Hearing this, Li Li exploded immediately, "If you don't think I'm good or bad, how good are you? Doting your daughter to the sky every day, your son is like a picked one, earning so much money every day But you don’t pay a dime, there is no iron **** like you in the world, so what if I sold your goods, if I didn’t work hard to manage this family, would you Lingjiang be where you are today?”
No matter how Ling Jiang got angry and spoke harshly, Li Li just refused to hand over the money.
In the end, Ling Jiang had no choice but to temporarily put the remaining inventory in the courtyard.
Knowing that the goods were really "stolen" by Li Li, Yun Mo was not surprised at all.
Actually, as early as she knew that Ling Jiang was in charge, and she no longer handed over the income to Li Li as before, she expected Li Li's idea of buying goods.
"Let's invite elder brother to come over for lunch on Saturday. By the way, let elder brother Chunhua also bring me here. I'll see how she is doing with her handwriting during this time."
The daughter-in-law cared about her niece's study, so Ling Chuan naturally agreed with joy.
—
Ever since learning about the real illness, Yun Huan has been refusing to cooperate with the treatment, which has caused headaches for Yun's family and medical staff.
For this reason, Jiang Yu specially recruited the best psychiatrist in Jiang City to do dredging for Yun Huan, but the effect was minimal.
Finally, under the advice of a psychiatrist, Jiang Yu had no choice but to go to the Su family, and wanted Su Ming'an to go to the hospital to accompany her little daughter.
Yun Huan likes Su Mingan, with Su Mingan's encouragement and company, maybe he can cheer up.
"The psychiatrist said that Xiao Huan has lost the will to survive now. If this continues, her body will collapse at any time. Father, Pei Rong, just take it as me begging you, save Xiao Huan, let me give you You can kneel down."
As he spoke, Jiang Yu really wanted to kneel down to the Su family.
Song Peirong quickly helped him up, "Don't be like this, just speak up if you have something to say."
Jiang Yu took the opportunity to grab Song Peirong's hand, her red eyes were full of pleading, "Peirong, you are also a mother, you can understand my feelings best, Xiaohuan is only 15 years old, I feel sad when I think of her illness." Like a knife, in the past half a month, I haven't been able to sleep peacefully at night, I'm afraid that I will hear bad news when I wake up, I really have no choice..."
Although she didn't like the Yun family's daughter, Song Peirong felt uncomfortable seeing Jiang Yu crying.
But no matter how uncomfortable it was, she had to toughen her heart and raise conditions.
Although it is very immoral, for the sake of her son's future, she would rather bear all the infamy.
"I can ask Ming An to go to the hospital to accompany Xiao Huan, but I have one condition."
Seeing Song Peirong let go, Jiang Yu was overjoyed, "Say it."
"I want to dissolve the engagement between Ming An and Xiao Huan."
