When Huang Cuicui heard this, she stopped crying and quickly crawled out from under Cao Chengcai's armpit, reaching out to pull Cao Dongnan's clothes.

She was incredibly strong, and it was obvious that she was really afraid that Cao Dongnan would go to find the so-called grandfather.

"Kid, why would you tell others about your family's affairs? You will just make people laugh at you."

She smiled awkwardly, looking very embarrassed.

Cao Dongnan didn't really plan to look for the grandfather at first, but seeing Huang Cuicui's behavior, he knew there must be something fishy going on.

Otherwise, considering how much Huang Cuicui disliked him recently, how could she smile at him?

While he was backing away with all his strength to stop Huang Cuicui from grabbing him, he shouted into the house:

"Dad, why don't you find Dad quickly!"

Cao Chengcai was still looking at Huang Cuicui at first, but when Cao Dongnan suddenly called him, he immediately came back to his senses.

When Huang Cuicui saw Cao Chengcai walking straight towards her locker, her heart almost jumped out of her chest and she no longer cared about Cao Dongnan.

He rushed to stop Cao Chengcai, but how could he stop someone who had already started?

Cao Chengcai was determined to see the food today. The lock on the cabinet was rusty, so he just pulled it lightly and the door opened.

Seeing the door open, Huang Cuicui bared her teeth and frantically pulled Cao Chengcai.

But how can an adult man shake an old person who doesn't work very often?

In particular, when he opened the door of the cupboard, he found nothing inside except some clothes, candies, and a small amount of food.

With bloodshot eyes, he pushed the person away and searched around the room with big strides. Cao Dongnan also saw a cabinet that he could see the bottom of, and his heart skipped a beat.

Grandma wouldn’t really give the food to others, right?

He didn't even bother to shout at the door, and rushed into the room like a monkey and started looking around.

Moreover, he was better at finding things than his father. He even found the money hidden in the rat hole. Huang Cuicui wanted to snatch it, but Cao Dongnan handed it over to his father.

There was only a scissors ticket and a half-foot cloth ticket in it, and the total amount of miscellaneous money did not exceed one dollar.

Cao Chengcai looked at her with bloodshot eyes, glaring fiercely at Huang Cuicui who had retracted her hands to pretend to be a quail.

"Where's the money? Where did all the money go over the years?"

Huang Cuicui always said that money was safe only in her hands, and there was nothing missing at home, so she didn't care.

In his mind, he works so hard and lives frugally, because in the end, won’t all these things be given to his sons and grandchildren?

Now he only found one dollar here, and Gu Zhiqing had given him two dollars before. No matter how you calculate it, it would be more than one dollar after decades!

"Let me ask you! Where's the money?" Huang Cuicui's heart trembled, and she knew that she could no longer hide this matter.

After all, the house is so small, where can you hide it?

She simply stopped talking, thinking to herself, how could Cao Chengcai, such an honest son, possibly do anything to her?

However, the fact is, never mess with honest people, because honest people can do anything once they are pushed into a corner.

Seeing that Huang Cuicui didn't say anything, Cao Chengcai kept yelling and questioning. Huang Cuicui felt guilty at first, but after being yelled at for a long time, she became angry.

After all, Cao Chengcai usually never fights back or retaliates when being beaten or scolded. She would just let it go if he said a word or two, but how dare he go against her and keep yelling at her?

"It's gone, all gone! What, do you want to eat me, your mother? Ah!" She was desperate, since she was not going to get the things back anyway.

It just so happens that there is no food recently, so she doesn't have to make excuses to cover it up.

She turned around and sat down on the stool beside her indifferently. Cao Chengcai blinked his eyes and his teeth seemed to be almost broken from biting.

However, she had not yet noticed her son's abnormality, and continued to mutter arrogantly:

"Now you can see that there is no money or food at home. You two must hurry up and go to work to earn work points. I heard that Hu Zi's family went to the mountains to find food after work. You must remember to find food after work today. If you can't find food, don't come back. Do you hear me?"

Seeing that there was no movement from the person behind her, Huang Cuicui turned around impatiently and glared at Cao Chengcai, "What are you looking at? It's bigger than your eyes. Why don't you go to work? You want me to carry you... ugh~!"

Before Huang Cuicui finished her words, Cao Chengcai fiercely stretched out his hands, grabbed Huang Cuicui's neck with both hands, and looked at her with murderous eyes:

"I ask you, where did the money and food go!"

"I... cough... I!" Huang Cuicui, whose neck was strangled, almost choked out of breath, and her hands were scratching Cao Chengcai's arms randomly.

His arms were scratched until they were bloody, which looked extremely terrifying.

Sweat dripped into the wound, causing a burning pain. He finally reacted and loosened his hand a little.

Huang Cuicui, whose eyes had mostly rolled back, seemed to finally come back to life. She breathed rapidly and tried to pry Cao Chengcai's hands open with both hands, but failed after several attempts.

She was already scared at this moment, tears welled up in her cloudy eyes, and she looked at him tearfully:

"Acai, Acai, I'm your mother, you can't do this, you can't do this!"

"I ask you, where did my money and food go?" Although Cao Chengcai reacted, he couldn't strangle her to death.

But he was on the verge of collapse at any time, and he kept asking where Huang Cuicui and the food had gone.

Huang Cuicui was really frightened by the feeling of being on the verge of death, and could only say tremblingly that all the food and money had been stolen.

But Cao Chengcai, who had already received the news, would never be willing to believe her again once what that person said was confirmed.

"I'm asking you, where's the money and food? If you don't tell me, we're all going to starve to death anyway, so let's die together!"

As she spoke, she exerted force with her hands and her two palms began to tighten. Huang Cuicui's eyes began to roll back and her hands continued to wave.

I accidentally touched a long, stick-shaped object.

She remembered that she had picked up this stick specially for hitting people. She held the stick and didn't know where she got the strength from, but she poked Cao Chengcai hard in the lower body.

Cao Chengcai felt pain and his hands loosened, and he hurried to cover his lower body. Huang Cuicui had hit him too hard with the stick, causing him to squat down in pain and he no longer cared about Huang Cuicui.

Out of the instinct for survival, Huang Cuicui only took a deep breath and immediately rushed out. When she finally reached the yard, she was stopped by Cao Dongnan.
