《The Village Girl Who Jinxes Her Husband Is Filthy Rich》Chapter 76: No Honor Among Thieves
Advertisement
Lin Yuelan had gotten a few hundred taels of silver from selling the large tiger. Then, many villagers saw Lin Yuelan buy many new pots and pans. There was even rice grain being taken out of the horse carriage.
These things were a great attraction to the poor villagers. Therefore, many people wanted to rob Lin Yuelan.
On the surface, they were afraid of Lin Yuelan's divine power. After all, she managed to take down a tiger on her own.
However, they had been observing Lin Yuelan since yesterday night. As soon as she left, they would sneak into her hut to rob her blind. Where could she hide things in her shabby hub? Even if they had to dig under the ground, they would find her silver.
As for the newly bought pots and pans, they were even easier to steal.
Therefore, before the sky was even bright, there were waves of people sneaking around Lin Yuelan's shabby little cottage.
However, due to the lack of light, they didn't see each other. Who knew so many people had the same idea?
When they approached the hut, the groups of villagers looked at each other in dismay.
Li Cuihua pointed at Liu Liujiao, Gu Sanniang, and the others and shouted angrily, "Why are you here?" Lin Yuelan's assets should go to her family. But these people brazenly came to steal from her. How shameless!

After being caught, Gu Sanniang felt a little embarrassed and found an excuse to say, "Auntie Li, I woke up early in the morning to use the toilet and came here out of curiosity when I saw you guys here."
"Bullshit!" Li Cuihua was angry and scolded, "Your house's toilet is so far away from here. Do you come here to steal the girl's money?" Li Cuihua pointed out the obvious.

Since she was exposed, Gu Sanniang no longer concealed her motive. She said, "The jinx has obtained so much silver from the sale. My family is short on money, so why can't I take it from her?" She said this very naturally like Lin Yuelan owed her money.
Li Cuihua and Lin Daniu believed that Lin Yuelan's silver belonged to the Lin family. The silver didn't even belong to Lin Yuelan in their mind, much less the other villagers.
When Lin Daniu thought that this money might fall into the hands of others, he couldn't suppress the anger in his heart.
Lin Daniu sternly shouted at Gu Sanniang and Liu Liujiao, "Gu Sanniang, Liu Liujiao, how dare you steal from the Lin Family? I'm going to report you to the village elders!" He didn't say he was going to report them to the court because he was afraid of the court. After all, he was a thief too.
...
Instead, he threatened them with a complaint to the village elders because he was Lin Dazong's father. Lin Dazong was going to be the future elementary scholar. The elders would definitely favor him. Secondly, Lin Yuelan was still from Lin Laosan's family. Therefore, Lin Yuelan had to hand over the money to Lin Laosan's family.
In short, the elders would side with Lin Laosan's family, and they would punish Gu Sanniang and Liu Liujiao, who also came to steal money.
Liu Liujiao was also furious when she heard Lin Daniu say that he would go to the elders. She also shouted angrily, "Lin Daniu, you are so shameless. How can you say that the jinx's money belongs to your family? Everyone knows that she has severed blood ties with your family already!
"Looking at your sneaky appearance, don't think we don't know you're also here to steal from the jinx?!

"And you dare to call us thieves? That's the pot calling the kettle black!" Liu Liujiao indirectly admitted that she was there to steal.
Liu Liujiao was famous in the village for her big mouth. Therefore, she had a silver tongue that could turn the truth upside side.
When Lin Daniu threatened her, she immediately exploded.
When Li Cuihua heard Liu Liujiao say the jinx's money had nothing to do with Lin Laosan's family, she was furious too. She immediately cursed, "Liu Liujiao, you big mouth. Who said that the jinx's money has nothing to do with my family anymore? Let me tell you. The jinx's money is my money. If you know what's good for you, leave immediately. Otherwise, I'll shout for the entire village to come over. They'll see that Liu Liujiao and Gu Sanniang came early in the morning to steal the money from the jinx."
Liu Liujiao said without the slightest fear of provocation, "Go on and shout them! Bring all the villagers over here. We'll see whether it is more embarrassing for me, or is it more embarrassing for you, Li Cuihua and Lin Daniu, the jinx's former grandmother and uncle?"
Gu Sanniang saw that their argument was getting more and more heated. When no one was paying attention, she sneaked into Lin Yuelan's hut.
Li Cuihua couldn't win against Liu Liujiao. She was so angry that her face turned green and white. She immediately went forward to scratch Liu Liujiao's face.
Liu Liujiao was a fat woman in her forties, while Li Cuihua was in her fifties. She was weaker than Liu Liujiao.
Therefore, the difference in age made Li Cuihua weaker.
The two of them struggled.
Li Cuihua failed to scratch Liu Liujiao. Instead, Liu Liujiao scratched her face a few times. Red marks immediately appeared on her face. Li Cuihua was furious. She reached out to grab Liu Liujiao's hair.
Liu Liujiao saw this coming. She quickly grabbed Li Cuihua's hair first.
Li Cuihua was at a disadvantage. She became angry from embarrassment and shouted at Liu Liujiao, "Liu Liujiao, how dare you hit me?" Then, she shouted at Lin Daniu angrily, "Ol One, are you dead? Can't you see that your mother is being bullied? Quickly come over and help. Pull this woman away!"
When Lin Daniu saw the two women fighting, he was stunned. He only came to his senses when his mother shouted at him.
No matter how weak Lin Daniu was, he was still a man. He was much stronger than Liu Liujiao. Lin Daniu easily rescued Li Cuihua from Liu Liujiao.
The moment Li Cuihua was freed, she was angry. She said, "Ol One, let's teach this old woman a lesson first!" Lin Daniu agreed.
However, Liu Liujiao wasn't someone who would sit still and not counter.
Just as Li Cuihua was about to make another move, she immediately scratched Li Cuihua's face and grabbed her hair again. The pain made Li Cuihua howl.
Lin Daniu also went forward to grab Liu Liujiao's hair.
Suddenly, a clang came from inside the hut.
The group that was fighting was stunned at first, but they immediately reacted.
Then, they quickly let go of each other and quickly ran into the hut.
