《The Village Girl Who Jinxes Her Husband Is Filthy Rich》Chapter 77: Red-handed
Advertisement
Did Lin Yuelan not know about the waves of people visiting her home?
Of course not.
When the people looked at her with jealousy as she descended from the horse carriage yesterday, Lin Yuelan already knew what was on their minds. After all, she had survived years in the apocalypse. These people wanted to steal from her.
However, these villagers would never have thought that her silver would not be hidden in any corner of her house. She carried the silver with her. She stored the silver in her magical space. She left out a small portion of the new stuff she bought around the hut and kept most of them inside her space.

The small portion was bait.
Otherwise, she would have to deal with thieves every time she bought something new. Rather than dealing with them in the future, Lin Yuelan wanted to solve everything all at once.
Lin Yuelan sat on a branch of a big tree on the mountain top. Her tender little face was calm, but her big eyes carried a sharp gaze as she looked in the direction of her home.
Lin Yuelan touched Little Green, who was sitting in front of her chest. The two green leaves were swaying. She asked, "Little Green, what's the situation now?"
She didn't have clairvoyance, so she could only find out what had happened in the hut through Little Green's communication with other plants.
Little Green's sharp buds curved, and then he said in a crisp voice, "Master, Li Cuihua and Liu Liujiao started fighting each other, while Gu Sanniang took the opportunity to sneak into our house and rummage through it.
"When she was inside the hut, Gu Sanniang accidentally broke one of our earthen jars, startling Li Cuihua, Lin Daniu, and Liu Liujiao. They stopped quarreling and immediately went into the house and started rummaging through the cabinets."

A sneer appeared on Lin Yuelan's tender face as she said, "Do these people really think I am so easy to bully? Little Green, call Little White. Let's go home!"

Little Green's sharp bud bent, and he immediately replied, "Alright!" He slipped down from Lin Yuelan's body and slithered away.
Lin Yuelan did not move. She stood up on the tree branch. She was expressionless, and her eyes looked far ahead. Her gaze was sharp.
...
Although it was safer here than in the apocalypse, the people annoyed her a lot. However, she knew that she couldn't deal with the darkness inside people's hearts in a day.
All she could do now was to intimidate and warn!
Not long after, Lin Yuelan heard a deafening tiger roar.
The corners of Lin Yuelan's mouth curled up, and there was a happy smile on her face.
The tall, fierce, and awe-inspiring Little White carried Little Green as it walked to the big tree where Lin Yuelan was standing.
When it arrived at the location that Little Green had mentioned, Little White stood still and looked at the top of the tree with its big white head.
When it saw the small black shadow, its big round eyes suddenly lit up. Then, it roared at the top of the tree as if it was greeting the people on the tree.
Little Green jumped down from Little White's back and then sneaked back to Lin Yuelan's side.
Lin Yuelan gently stroked Little Green's two green leaves, then looked at Little White, who had an innocent look in its eyes. She smiled.
Then, she climbed down the tree with Little Green. When they were almost at the bottom of the tree, she jumped onto Little White's back.
Little White steadily caught Lin Yuelan. Lin Yuelan grabbed the white fur on Little White's neck. Then, she gently patted it and laughed happily. She praised loudly, "Little white, good job!"

Little Green slid down from Lin Yuelan's shoulder and jumped onto her wrist. Then, it circled a few times and turned into something like a jade bracelet.
Lin Yuelan stroked Little Green's exposed sprouts with one hand. Then, she patted Little White's back and said, "Let's go, Little White!"
The girl and the tiger thus swaggered into the village from the mountain.
...
The clank startled the three people fighting. It was the sound of jars breaking. It woke the trio up.
The three were fighting while Gu Sanniang had already sneaked into the hut to look for the silver.
How could she be so despicable? The three cursed!
The three immediately stopped fighting. They quickly slipped into the house. Why? Of course, they were going to look for silver.
Three women and a man rummaged through the entire house. They even checked the black ashes on the stove.
"This is strange." Lin Daniu frowned and muttered to himself, "Where did that wretched girl hide the money?" He used his hand to push away the weathered hay that formed the way.
The small hut, which was already not stable, became even more dilapidated. They poked holes here and there in the walls.
Lin Daniu thought that Lin Yuelan would hide the money in the wall. It was why he was basically tearing down the house. For some people, they would chip out a brick and then hide valuables behind it. The brick would be replaced, and one would be none the wiser.
Lin Yuelan's hut was not made of brick, but she still could hide the money in the wall, right?
The moment Li Cuihua entered the house, she saw the clean bed with a new quilt with orchids on it. A hint of anger immediately appeared on her face as she cursed, "That bitch actually used our money to buy such a good quilt. What a jinx and wastrel!"

Her hands did not stop moving. She walked to the side of the bed, picked up the quilt, and shook it a few times. However, silver didn't fall out of the quilt as she expected.
She then tore the quilt with all her strength. However, other than cotton and cotton thread, there was nothing else hidden in the quilt. Not even a copper coin could be seen, let alone the silver.
Li Cuihua threw these things aside and began to rummage around on the bed but found nothing.
Li Cuihua was unwilling to give up, so she jumped off the bed and slipped under the bed to search.
Gu Sanniang came in first. She searched Lin Yuelan's room based on how she'd hidden her own money.
As soon as she saw the bottles and jars, she began to dig through them. She even poured out the seasonings from the jars Lin Yuelan had just bought.
Liu Liujiao entered the kitchen directly.
Every corner of the kitchen had been wiped clean. There wasn't a trace of any silver.
The sky was getting brighter. They didn't even find a single copper coin, let alone silver or banknotes.
The four of them were very unwilling to give up. However, they couldn't continue searching.
Because, in a moment, there would be a passing crowd.
Suddenly, the four of them had a tacit understanding.
When they saw the brand new items in Lin Yuelan's hut, they immediately split up to snatch them.
Then, they grabbed their spoils and prepared to go home.
However, when they stepped out of the door and saw the figure standing at the door, the four of them immediately turned pale with fright.
