Chapter 337: Robbing a House (End)
The couple searched for a long time but couldn't find him, so they went downstairs to ask Xu's mother if she had seen him.
Mother Xu shook her head. "Will you look for it again?"
Liu Li searched from dawn to dusk but couldn't find it. She remembered the gold bracelet her sister-in-law bought for her mother-in-law and reminded her, "Mom, can you see if yours is there?"
"Of course I do. I don't wear it all day like you do." Mother Xu curled her lips.
"Will you go look for it?"
Xu's mother went to look for it, and when she saw the empty drawer, her face turned pale.
She took out everything in the drawer, but still couldn't find her gold bracelet and gold necklace.
She was about to cry: "Mine is gone too."
"I think it was most likely taken away by Xu Jinhuan. She did it on purpose to make us angry." Liu Li said hatefully.
I don't know what he's thinking. He refuses to get married no matter what.
Xu's mother immediately called Xu Jinhuan and started questioning him.
Xu Jinhuan's bewildered voice came from the other end of the phone: "Gold bracelet, gold necklace, I don't know, I didn't go home last night."
As if she had thought of something, she exclaimed, "Mom, you won't doubt me, will you? How could I be a thief?"
She sold those things last night.
The snuff bottle was the most valuable, selling for 200,000 yuan, and the gold bracelets sold for 50,000 yuan.
It is not sold openly, otherwise it would be more valuable.
"Not you?"
Mother Xu looked at Liu Li.
Liu Li snatched the phone away and shouted, "Xu Jinhuan, I advise you to return it to me quickly, otherwise I will send you to jail. The price of the gold bracelet and gold necklace is not low, enough to keep you in jail for several years."
"Then call the police!"
After Xu Jinhuan finished speaking, he hung up the phone.
Liu Li was so angry that she called the police directly.
Xu's mother wanted to stop her, but thinking about how her daughter had been disobedient in the past two days, she remained silent.
She wouldn't really let her go to jail. She would use the jail time as a way to control her and make her get married.
The police found Xu Jinhuan, and she was innocent. The money on her bank card and some payment apps were all her salary and income from stall operations.
They also checked the surveillance footage and found that Xu Jinhuan had been in the hotel the entire day yesterday and only went for breakfast at nine in the morning.
They informed the reporter of this situation.
Liu Li exclaimed: "How is it possible?"
Although there was no evidence, she felt it was Xu Jinhuan.
I just don't know how she did it?
If I had known this earlier, wouldn’t my family have become rich?
Liu Li was having wild thoughts.
"Where's my snuff-box?"
There was a loud noise coming from Mr. and Mrs. Xu's room.
Liu Li and her husband looked at each other, and they hurried to see that Xu's father had a grim face and was rummaging through the drawers at home, with things piled all over the floor.
Xu Chengkang asked worriedly, "Dad, what's wrong?"
Father Xu said angrily: "My snuff bottle is missing. It is a family heirloom of our Xu family! I was thinking of passing it on to you."
When he heard that his daughter-in-law and her gold bracelet were missing, he had a bad feeling.
I rushed to the room, only to find that the place where the snuff bottle was placed was empty.
"Did you take it?" Father Xu looked at Xu Chengkang and asked.
My son has always wanted to sell his snuff bottle and buy a house in the county town.
He never agreed.
Liu Li also looked at her husband.
Xu Chengkang's face flushed: "How could it be me? You should not doubt me even if you doubt Xu Jinhuan!"
"She didn't come back yesterday?" Father Xu frowned.
If she came to steal at night, he would not have been able to fail to hear it.
He is more alert when he sleeps.
Father Xu called Xu Jinhuan with a cold face.
Xu Jinhuan felt aggrieved, "Are you still my dad? You actually suspected that I was a thief."
Anyway, Xu Jinhuan refused to admit it, and Xu's father and mother could not produce any evidence. The police investigated for a long time but could not find anything, so they could only blame themselves for their bad luck.
But what Xu Jinhuan didn't expect was that Xu's mother and Liu Li were so shameless that they actually asked her to buy them new gold bracelets and gold necklaces.
Of course Xu Jinhuan refused.
When Xu's mother heard this, she burst into tears and said how miserable her life was. She had worked so hard to raise Xu Jinhuan, and provided her with food, clothing, and schooling, but in the end she was not even allowed to buy her a gold bracelet.
She also went to the door of Xu Jinhuan's unit and cried for a long time. She was told by the front desk that Xu Jinhuan had resigned a few days ago.
"Are you lying to me?" Xu's mother looked at the front desk with suspicion.
How could Xu Jinhuan not tell him about such a big thing as resignation?
The receptionist looked at her clean face and was speechless for a moment. It seemed like thunder without rain.
She said, "She resigned. I have no reason to lie to you about this. If you don't believe me, you can call her."
Xu's mother got up and called Xu Jinhuan, but the call didn't go through.
She realized she had been blocked and became furious.
He returned home cursing and swearing, and seeing Liu Li lying on the sofa playing with her phone, he immediately took out his anger on her:
"Why is my Cheng Kang so unlucky? He married a lazy daughter-in-law like you. You stay at home doing nothing all day and have to wait for me, your mother-in-law, to serve you."
When Liu Li saw her mother-in-law like this, she knew that things were not going well, but she didn't say anything.
After the mother-in-law finished scolding, she asked cautiously, "Mom, did you ask your sister-in-law for money?"
Xu's mother said angrily: "No."
"I didn't get any at all." Liu Li was a little unconvinced.
My sister-in-law is very filial.
"If I said no, then there's no. Why do you have to ask several times? Why are you talking so much? Hurry up and cook." Xu's mother yelled at her.
Liu Li sighed and went to cook with a dejected look.
At noon, when her husband came back, she said to him, "Your sister is such an ungrateful person. She can't even afford to buy a gold bracelet for mom."
Xu Chengkang sneered: "She's really grown cocky. If she gets wronged after getting married, don't expect me, her brother, to back her up."
Liu Li nodded: "Let her beg you then."
……
at this time.
Xu Jinhuan has already gone to another place. The original owner has always wanted to travel, but Xu's mother and others disagreed, thinking it was a waste of money.
Once, the original owner bought the plane ticket, but when it was time to leave, he was locked in the house by them.
Xu's mother even cried, saying that the family had no money, but the original owner still wanted to live a carefree life.
Since then, the original owner kept all the money-spending projects to himself.
She used the money from selling the gold bracelets and necklaces to eat and drink lavishly.
I tried various projects that interested me and bought a house in a beautiful place using the money from selling snuff bottles.
After some simple decoration, she moved in. At this time, she received a call from the police saying that her parents were looking for her.
Xu Jinhuan did not cover up for them at all and said directly: "They wanted to arrange my marriage, but I didn't want to, so I ran away. Don't tell them my address, otherwise I will report you."
She hoped that some policemen would be kind enough to tell the Xu family her address with the idea of a happy ending.
……
The other end.
After the police hung up the phone, they looked at the worried Xu family and said, "Your daughter is fine. She just doesn't want to be arranged into a marriage by you."
Upon hearing this, Father Xu's face turned dark.
What kind of words are these...
Since ancient times, marriages have been arranged by parents and matchmakers.
They were clearly doing this for her own good.
He said, "Can you tell me the girl's phone number? The child's mother and I are worried about her."
The police didn't give it.
Father Xu and others left the police station cursing.
half year later.
Xu Chengkang was fired by his boss for drinking during working hours.
Liu Li became pregnant before she found a new job and needed money everywhere.
Xu Chengkang asked his parents for money with a stern face, and his father gave him 20,000 yuan.
Mother Xu was a little reluctant, but her eldest grandson was more important, so she lamented, "If only your sister were here..."
A monthly salary of five or six thousand is more than enough to support a pregnant woman.
When the baby is born, I can help her take care of it, so she won’t have to work so hard.
As a result, he is running away without a trace, what an ungrateful person.
She should not have been born in the first place.
Xu Chengkang had high expectations but lacked the skills to achieve them, and he didn't want to endure hardship. Even after Liu Li gave birth, he still couldn't find a job.
He could only shamelessly ask Xu's father and mother for it, but Xu's father squeezed the money out like toothpaste.
In order to support his grandson, he had to work harder, and Xu's mother also worked hard to take care of the child.
After waiting for a long time for her eldest grandson to be able to run and jump, Liu Li became pregnant again and she had to take care of him again.
Liu Li gave birth to three children in total, and all three were taken care of by Xu's mother.
I waited so long for my three children to grow up, some took the college entrance exam, some went to high school...
But she fell ill with a chronic disease, which cost her one or two thousand yuan every month.
Liu Li refused to provide treatment on the grounds that she was short of money, and Xu Chengkang also took away all the money that Xu's father had.
Xu's mother could only endure the day, wiping tears all day long...
He died within a year.
The same thing happened to Xu's father. Liu Li always scolded him as an old man. When she told her son about this, her son would only say that Liu Li had a sharp tongue but a soft heart...
In the end, Xu's father was angered to death.
As soon as they died, Xu Jinhuan came out and started fighting with Xu Chengkang for the inheritance.
Xu Chengkang's eyes turned red with anger: "Why are you so shameless?"
Since ancient times, everything in the family belongs to the sons, while daughters have to get married.
Xu Jinhuan said that this was a new era and filed a lawsuit against her.
He also revealed that Xu Chengkang and Liu Li were unfilial to their father and mother.
The two of them had a bad reputation and became well-known unfilial sons and daughters, and everyone disliked them.
Liu Li went to buy vegetables, and the vendor picked the least fresh ones for her.
Both of them died socially.
The lives of their three sons were also affected, and they disliked Xu Chengkang and Liu Li very much.
When Xu Chengkang and Liu Li can no longer move, they will be sent directly to a nursing home.
They didn't even look at each other once a year. Liu Li's eyes turned red and she called them ungrateful wolves.
The three children said confidently: "I learned this from you. That's how you treated your grandparents."
Xu Chengkang and Liu Li regretted their decision and spent the rest of their time in misery.
Xu Jinhuan would often "kindly" visit them, say kind things, and make them have hope in life.
