Chapter 155: Chapter 155
"What are you doing? Let them go!"
Niu Shi rushed forward, trying to push Shen Qingzhu and the others away, but was easily pulled aside by Shen Qinglan.
Liang Kun was a bit panicked at this moment, thinking about what to do when he heard Niu Shi angrily say, "So what if we took it?"
She looked at Dong Zhong and Shen Shan and said, "We’re out here starving and freezing, while you’re living comfortably in town. What’s wrong with taking some of your things?"
"Who are you to us?" Lu Shi was furious, "How shameless you are to take our things, aren’t you afraid of divine retribution!"
Although she wasn’t around when Dong Lian disappeared, she’d heard about the things Niu Shi had done after she came into the family.
Ever since the passing of their great-grandmother, the Liang Family had no more contact, so the younger generation basically didn’t know what relationship Liang Kun had with the Dong Family.
"Why shouldn’t we take it?" Niu Shi said, "We’re your cousins. You’re well-fed and warm, while we are out in the snow and rain. Why shouldn’t we take some compensation?"
Shen Qinglan felt her worldview was being refreshed.
There were actually such shameless people in the world.
Dong Zhong didn’t want to argue with them anymore and didn’t want to see them again, so he said coldly, "Since you admit it, could you return our things?"
"Return? Why should we?" Niu Shi said, "Once it’s in our hands, it’s ours!"
Shen Shan said, "Perhaps you didn’t understand the announcement. It clearly states that relatives can pick up things on behalf, but if you embezzle, you’ll be severely punished. Do you want to force us to report this to the authorities?"
"What kind of relatives are they?" Lu Shi said coldly, "They’re clearly enemies of our Dong Family."
Hearing about reporting to the authorities, and remembering that Shen Qinglan knew people in the Government, Liang Kun immediately cowered.
He stepped forward and said, "Hey~ why report the authorities? We’re all family. We thought maybe you didn’t receive the notice, so we kindly picked it up for you. Here, take it."
"Just now, you didn’t say that." Shen Qingzhu sneered, "Didn’t you say you were picking it up for your village people?"
Liang Kun’s expression stiffened, then he chuckled twice and said, "I was just joking."
Lu Shi spat, disdainfully saying, "Trees need bark and people need face, but you are completely shameless."
Liang Kun pretended not to hear and said, "The grains are stacked inside, just take your share."
"What about the money?" Shen Qinglan asked.
"You still want money?" Niu Shi clutched her chest tightly, "No way!"
"Oh~" Shen Qinglan raised an eyebrow, "So, should we let the authorities handle this?"
"Give it to them!" Liang Kun said.
"Why?" Niu Shi refused, "Take whatever else you want, but don’t even think about the money!"
Sixty taels! She couldn’t bear to give it!
Shen Qinglan laughed coldly. She looked at Shen Shan and said, "Dad, you and uncle stay here and watch. I’ll go report this to the authorities."
"Hey~" Liang Kun reached out to stop Shen Qinglan, but she dodged him.
Seeing he couldn’t stop her, Liang Kun could only plead with Niu Shi, "Just give them the money!" Official source ıs n͟o͟v͟e͟l͟f͟i͟r͟e͟.net
Niu Shi still refused, Liang Kun was furious and lunged at her to snatch it.
The two of them immediately started rolling and fighting in the snow.
Liang Da and Liang Er were shocked and tried to break free from their restraints, but were held down tightly and couldn’t move.
Shen Qinglan didn’t leave, instead, she leaned against a tree, watching the two in the snow, punching, kicking, pulling each other’s hair, scratching each other’s face, neither giving an inch.
Back and forth, it was quite a spectacle.
