Rebirth: My Mother is a Virgin Mary

Given the choice between $400,000 and going to jail, even the dumbest people like Cheng Xingmin and Cheng Antai would know which one to choose.

Cheng Fuqiang closed his eyes and calmed himself down. "There is 100,000 yuan in cash under the bed in my room. There is a woolen coat in a plastic bag on the top shelf of the closet. There is a cowhide bag in the inner pocket of the woolen coat. There is a card in the cowhide bag. There is a full 300,000 yuan in the card. You can take it..."

Cheng Xingmin's eyes widened. He obviously didn't know that his elder brother had such a large sum of money. When Cheng Huan came, his elder brother only said that he had 50,000 yuan. He knew that his elder brother had 100,000 yuan under his bed, and his elder brother also promised him that if Cheng Huan succeeded, the 100,000 yuan would be his.

Where did these three hundred thousand come from?

Cheng Xingmin was puzzled, and neither was I. It was as if Ms. Lin had known for a long time that Cheng Fuqiang had the 300,000 yuan, and she explained it exactly, not a cent more, not a cent less.

Cheng Xinyuan and the other two carried Cheng Fuqiang to get the money. Ms. Lin was not in a hurry. She took out paper and pen from her bag and waited for Cheng Fuqiang to come back.

"Your eldest brother probably didn't tell you that the 300,000 yuan was left to him by your mother." Ms. Lin saw Cheng Xingmin's confusion and prepared to give him a drastic measure.

"What did you say?!" Cheng Xingmin stood still as if struck by lightning, even his breathing stopped.

"She certainly didn't give cash. Remember your father had a jar, which looks gray, but it's an antique from the Qing Dynasty royal family. He knew you would fight over it, so he lied to you that it was a fake, and he usually used it to store rice to hide it from you. Before your father died, he told your mother to donate the jar, but your mother didn't have time, so she gave it to your eldest brother. With your eldest brother being like that, it would be strange if she didn't change it into money. It's just a pity, that jar is estimated to be worth five million, but your eldest brother is not that kind of person, and he just gave it away for three hundred thousand." Ms. Lin admired her manicure, and watched Cheng Xingmin gradually collapse out of the corner of her eye.

"Five million... five million... Cheng Fuqiang actually wasted five million..." Cheng Xingmin murmured in despair, "Why should I leave it to him? Am I not your beloved son? Why should I leave it to him? Why? Why? Why?" He raised his head suddenly and questioned Ms. Lin: "Why do you know all this!?"

Ms. Lin sneered: "Do you think your mother only talked to Lin Lin before she left? Cheng Xingmin, do you really think you have the final say in the Cheng family? Are you really sure that your eldest brother has kept this secret from you? Why did he give the money to Cheng Huan without hesitation when he came to him? If you hadn't stopped him and suggested the rat poison idea, Cheng Fuqiang might have given him the 100,000 yuan as well~"

"You three brothers, are you acting with half of the Criminal Law in mind? But if we compare them, you are still slightly better."

"If Cheng Huan wants to know, you can tell him yourself and solve the family conflict yourself. We won't get involved in this."

Cheng Xinyuan just came back with Cheng Fuqiang, and Ms. Lin slapped the paper and pen on the table: "Come here and write a voluntary donation agreement."

I covered my mouth and burst out laughing. She really brought the words I said to Ms. Lin when we were chatting casually to life.

Cheng Fuqiang reluctantly picked up the pen to write, reluctantly pressed his fingerprint, and signed his name. Ms. Lin signaled Cheng Xingmin with her eyes, and Cheng Xingmin screamed: "I want to sign too?!"

"Ha, this is hilarious. You two are now on the same boat. Who can hide from you? You are the main culprit~"

The harvest was fruitful and we returned home with a full load.

Ms. Lin handed me the card and said, "This is for you."

I didn't answer. "Give it to me again?" What I mean is that I have too much money to spend now.

"It was originally yours."

"What do you mean it was originally mine?"

"That jar was something your grandfather wanted to entrust to you. It was a pity that he didn't see you for the last time. Now that Cheng Fuqiang has sold it, the money should be yours."

"Is it possible?" I took it with a half-believing and half-doubting tone, "It's a pity that grandpa's last wish was not fulfilled."

"It's done. The jar has been donated."

"Eh? So you just tricked Cheng Xingmin?"

"It's true. The jars were sold, but they were also donated." Ms. Lin gathered her hair and said, "Just look at this card."

I then started to observe the savings card, and a minute later, it all dawned on me.

"The person who bought that jar, couldn't it be Uncle Gu?"

"OK."

"He was the one who donated the jar?"

"Well, he needs this opportunity. The card was issued in my name. Even if it hadn't happened today, this card wouldn't have stayed with Cheng Fuqiang for long. It was only a matter of time."

"Then how did you know when he would sell this jar? And how did you know Uncle Gu happened to buy it?"

"Cheng Fuqiang has wanted to sell it for a long time, but he has always been troubled by the lack of channels. I have a high school classmate who works in this industry. It is easy for him to contact Cheng Fuqiang. Everything after that is under my control."

"Then what did you mean by even if this incident hadn't happened? You still have a backup plan to deal with Cheng Fuqiang?"

"Cheng Huan has always been in my plan. I have been planning to use him since you told me that you met him at school. I just didn't expect that he would be involved with Shuang Shuang. It's good to plan ahead of time.

This is really someone handing me a pillow when I'm sleepy. I admire her so much. "My mom is amazing! She is the top of the food chain!"

"Thank you for the compliment, my girl."

"Eh? You said Cheng Huan's father's death was not an accident? Didn't his father die in a mining accident? And there was a large amount of compensation."

"That's what we said to the public. We can't tell others that Cheng Xinde was poisoned and thrown into the mine just for the compensation, right?"

"Oh my god..." There is also this scene.

"Once a person gets addicted to gambling, it is very difficult to quit. Cheng Xinde was good for a while, but he couldn't resist the temptation and got addicted again. Your great grandfather had no choice but to abandon this grandson."

"Was Cheng Xinde poisoned at the behest of my great grandfather?" My CPU was about to burn out.

"Yes, a whole bottle of dichlorvos. Cheng Fuqiang went to the mine to feed it himself. The mine was not formal to begin with, and no one would suspect someone died there. They paid 500,000 yuan in compensation, and Cheng Fuqiang took half of it. The other half was taken away by Cheng Huan's mother."

I was filled with grief. Although I was still young when my great-grandfather passed away and I don't remember it very clearly, I still remember his remorseful and unwilling roar before he died. I didn't expect there was such a secret.

"I just gave Cheng Huan a heads up. He's smart, and he can probably figure out how his father died. Cheng Fuqiang is a coward. Even if he was ordered to do something, he did it himself, and he can't stand the slightest threat. So as long as Cheng Huan is around, his life won't be easy."

I couldn't help but applaud. Compared with Ms. Lin, I was really nothing.

"So poisoning is a common practice. Should I thank Cheng Antai for not giving me DDT back then?"

Ms. Lin rubbed my head and said, "Cheng Antai is the most cautious one. He won't take such a big risk."

"Yes, he lost because he was too confident in himself. Otherwise, he wouldn't have raised his brother-in-law's daughter for so many years..."
