Reborn in the 1980s: Recapture My Devoted Husband-Chapter 805 - 733: Stealing Money

"A total of a hundred thousand. Yan’er, a hundred thousand. My big brother is so damn rich. Humph, with so much money, he never thought to give us a bit. If I hadn’t voluntarily quit school back then to let mom and dad support him, he wouldn’t have what he has today or marry such a good wife."

"Ning Hai? You dead man, who are you speaking well of?"

"I... I was just complaining casually; you really take it seriously."

"Quickly, check if there’s any encryption on it (back then, money deposited on a passbook had a deposit slip, and the slip would indicate the single deposit amount. If a password was set, there would be a mark for password enclosure)." Wang Yan said, suddenly showing an excited smile, "It’s okay if there’s a password; I roughly know what it is."

"Hey, such an important thing as a password, how do you know?"

"Once, I saw your sister-in-law gave a deposit slip to our dad. Probably afraid we’ll forget the password, she wrote it directly on it. I remembered it then with my wits."

"Wife, you truly are my Ning Hai’s lucky star. Look, this requires a password."

"No matter about the password, let’s quickly take five thousand and leave."

"Five thousand? Why not take it all, anyway, big brother and sister-in-law can earn money."

"Are you stupid? We can’t take it all. We should only take our half. If things come out later, we can argue. This half is rightfully ours. Besides, it’s benefiting your big brother too. This factory makes money. There’ll be more money coming in the future."

"That’s why I say take all the money."

Wang Yan pondered for a moment and said, "Let’s take seven, no, eight thousand. Leave the rest to them."

"Alright, listen to the wife."

The couple took several deposit slips, leaving everything else untouched. After taking them, they put everything back in place. Once assured everything was okay, they hurriedly sneaked back to the room.

What they didn’t know was that in the pitch black, from the direction of the outhouse, there were two pairs of shining eyes watching them.

Unaware of this, they returned to their room, laughing excitedly.

"Wife, eight thousand, this can buy a lot of land."

"A lot indeed; just the village’s western end, half the village’s land area, can be easily secured."

"Great, going back, we’ll follow big brother’s example, build a new house, buy a TV, and get a bike."

"With all this money, we can buy anything. But don’t let it slip in the next few days. Keep working quietly for me. Tomorrow I’ll go take the money out. In a few days, we’ll find a reason to visit home with the kid."

"Okay, listening to the wife."

While the couple was ’plotting’ together, Shi Lan was rushing over with Uncle Hu and Hu Lijuan.

Although Lin Wan had a scare but no real danger, she suffered quite a lot, with such a big wound requiring many stitches, sweating all over from the pain upon waking.

After all, the injury was on the back, the men felt unable to approach. It was the people from the police station that visited once, conveniently recording Lin Wan’s statements after she woke up, then left.

This sort of thing belonged to family disputes, civil cases where police mediation was the priority.

Given the patient’s current state, it was certain mediation could not happen in the short term, the police indicated they’d return in a few days.

When Aunt Shen heard Little Star and others were at her place, she took Uncle Hu and Hu Lijuan back with her.

Tan Aixiang feared Shi Lan’s parents couldn’t manage so many children, hence sending Bai Xu to take Shen Rong back.

After all, Shen Rong’s child was still little and unsettled without people, and although there’s resentment towards Shen Rong’s couple, they couldn’t make it tough on the kid.

Just as Ning Hai’s couple was excitedly rolling around on the bed with the lights out, there was noise in the yard, and soon heard sounds from the yard, along with Shi Lan’s voice.

The two calmed down quite a bit, diligently listening to the sounds from the yard while inside.

Not long after, some unfamiliar voices and children’s voices were heard; turns out they were picking up the children.

When Hu Bin and Hu Lijuan arrived at Shi Lan’s house, Little Star had just fallen asleep. The adults didn’t wake them and respectfully took their children away afterward.

The couple stealthily observed Shi Lan enter the bedroom and shut the door through the window and soon saw the lights go out.

"Looks like they didn’t notice; shall we sleep too, remember to act normal tomorrow."

"Don’t worry, I know."
