Fast-forward to the era of cannon fodder

She sneered and said sarcastically, "We are so poor that we can't even afford to eat. Which thief is so stupid as to come to our house and steal things?"

Ma Xiaolan choked on her tears and almost suffocated to death.

Zhong Daming asked, "Yuanchun, did you hear any noise in this room this morning?"

"No, maybe because I had enough food these past two days and didn't have to work, I was in good spirits and slept very soundly, so I didn't hear any noise."

Zhong Daming was silent.

Could it be that the elder sister-in-law really blamed him and Xiaolan for treating Zhong Liwen harshly, and to punish them, she took away all their money?

But if it wasn't a ghost, how could the money that Xiaolan sewed into the cotton-padded jacket disappear inexplicably?

At that time, he saw Xiaolan sew the money in with his own eyes.

One thousand eight hundred yuan was the amount he paid.

Just disappear when you say you won’t see it?

Zhong Guoqiang and Zhong Guohao were also woken up. The two brothers rubbed their eyes and walked into the house. Seeing the mess in the house, they were also shocked. "Dad, Mom, our house was robbed?"

"Dad, what was stolen from our house? My mom is crying so sadly, was money stolen?"

"Dad, how much money was stolen from our house?"

"Dad, didn't they steal all the things?"

"Ah, then what should we do about our studies? I don't want to owe the school tuition fees, or my classmates will laugh at me to death."

“Then I won’t go to school.”

"I'm not going either."

The two brothers spoke one sentence each, and Zhong Daming was almost angry to death.

"Shut up." Zhong Daming's face turned pale. "If you don't go to school, what do you want to do? I tell you, if you dare not go to school, I will break your dog legs."

The two brothers were so frightened that they ran back to their own little room, not even caring about their mother.

Soon, the two brothers also cried, "My money is lost, wuwu, Dad, Mom, my money was also stolen."

"Ahhh...I'm going to beat that thief to death. He stole all my money..."

Then, not long after, Zhong Yuanfen also cried and shouted that her money was missing.

"That was my pocket money that I saved for more than a year. I wanted to buy small leather shoes, but they were all stolen. Woohoo, mom, I want to wear small leather shoes. My classmates all have small leather shoes, but I don't have any. Woohoo... Mom, I don't care, you have to buy me a pair."

The Zhong family was howling like wolves and ghosts all morning long.

A neighbor curiously poked his head over and asked, "Zhong Daming, what happened to your family? Why are you crying so early in the morning? What happened?"

"No... nothing happened. The child was disobedient and I hit him a few times, so he started crying." Zhong Daming smiled stiffly.

The money was stolen, and he was very anxious, but he didn't dare to report it to the police, fearing that the money was really taken by his sister-in-law. If he reported it to the police, it would anger her. What if...

People don't fight ghosts.

Can't beat him either.

But Zhong Daming was unwilling to just watch the money disappear.

So, in the evening, Zhong Daming and Ma Xiaolan found a remote crossroads and burned all the paper money for Ma Dalan and Zhong Liming.

While burning, the couple kept saying:

"Sister, I failed to live up to your trust and didn't take good care of Wenwen. I'm sorry. I swear that I will take good care of her in the future. I beg you to return all the money to me. I have four children to support. Without money, I can't survive."

"Sister, you won't be able to use the money after you go to the underworld. Please give it back to me. I...I promise you that I will definitely prepare a generous dowry for Wenwen in the future."
