Reborn in the 1980s: Recapture My Devoted Husband-Chapter 838 - 743: Ignoring It_4

"Just letting it go like this?"

"No way, I disagree on this end, and Ning Hai disagrees on that end too. In the end, the two elders couldn’t help but discuss it with us, and that money is meant for their future retirement. My mother-in-law loves her youngest son, afraid that my sister-in-law might harm Ning Hai again, and doesn’t want to live with us. Instead, she wants to stay at home and help keep an eye on Wang Yan for Ning Hai. In the future, Ning Hai will be responsible for their retirement in the hometown. Naturally, Ning Jiang can’t say much, he can’t intervene in their decision, but Ning Hai eventually gave me two thousand yuan.

Sigh... I want to scold him but seeing him like that, I can’t bear it. What was he thinking earlier? What a mess. I’m so frustrated I can’t stand it."

"Over ten thousand yuan is quite a lot. Sigh, we’ve never seen your in-laws being this biased before. Saying it’s for retirement, but if they really get sick, can they ignore it? Without them coming over to help you, how would you take care of the children?"

"The children are grown up. I can manage on my own. Xiao Wan, this incident has made me lose heart towards my in-laws as well. Without them around, I can also find peace. Xiao Wan, I’ve learned a lesson from this."

"Be more careful in the future."

"Hmph, I was already very careful, who would have thought my sister-in-law was so cunning. She could even pull things out from such a secretive place."

Fine... let’s not talk about these anymore. I’ve spent money to see someone’s true colors. My sister-in-law, because of this incident, won’t have good days in the future. Now the whole village knows about their money-stealing incident, they’ve lost face in the hometown. They’ll never be able to hold their heads high in the village for the rest of their lives. Xiao Wan, don’t worry."

"Hmm, as long as you’re okay. When you return, it hasn’t affected the factory, has it?"

"No, it’s fine, no impact."

"Hmm"

Shi Lan doesn’t know Lin Wan is in the Capital City, she still thinks she’s in Z City. 𝘧𝓇𝑒𝑒𝑤ℯ𝑏𝓃𝘰𝑣ℯ𝘭.𝘤ℴ𝘮

Lin Wan hung up the phone, and Liang Qian curiously asked, "What’s going on? What happened at Shilan’s house?"

She just listened in confusion.

"It’s a troublesome thing." Lin Wan briefly told Liang Qian about Shilan’s family issues.

Liang Qian listened, stunned, her eyebrows furrowed into a small mountain.

"Her sister-in-law seems to rival Xie Lingzhi. You don’t know, when Xie Lingzhi was young, she did something embarrassing like this too."

Lin Wan was taken aback, never expecting such a side from someone from Xie Lingzhi’s big family.

"When your godfather and I just got married, your grandfather gave me a box, saying that every daughter-in-law of the Mei Family gets one. I didn’t think much of it at the time, was waiting to toast, so I put the box in the room and went out. Who knew when I came back at night, the box was gone. Your godfather and I searched the room for a long time but couldn’t find it. We thought the old man gave something good, and losing it would be terrible. We quickly went to tell the old man about this, who knew, passing by the eldest’s room, their door wasn’t closed properly. As I walked past, a gust of wind blew from the second-floor window, swinging their door open. I glanced unintentionally and saw a box exactly like mine. I didn’t mind, as I couldn’t find my box that day, but the old man said, inside he placed a Phoenix Blood Jade, and the eldest had an Ice Flower Rose Jade. That old jade was indeed a treasure. I have felt guilty about this matter ever since. If it weren’t for my carelessness, how could I have lost it? We intended to call the police, but the old man wouldn’t allow it. Later, somehow, the old man had a talk with your father-in-law and your godfather, and within a day, my box appeared in the living room. At that time, my mother-in-law said I was careless, putting things randomly and not even knowing where they were. I was puzzled then since I clearly put it in the room. Someone must have touched it."
