As expected…

Gu An’an smiled slyly and said, “But… the Liu family has to return the 500 yuan that they borrowed from my mother!”

“Don’t even think about it!”

“No way!”

“Stupid girl, shut up!…”

Hearing her demand for money so blatantly, several angry voices erupted in the courtyard. They were so loud that it almost shattered the eardrums of both Gu An’an and Wu Chunhua.

“Why not?”

Wu Chunhua asked in a sharp tone—her eyes were icy cold. “Jiang Mei, Gu Jianguo, if you two don’t come clean with the truth today, I won’t let this matter rest!”

“Yes, An’an’s mother is no longer around, but as long as Old Yang and I are around, don’t think about handling An’an’s matters half-heartedly.”

“We don’t poke our noses into other people’s affairs, but what belongs to An’an must be returned to her. If anything is missing, heh…”

At this point, she suddenly sneered and her gaze landed on Liu Zhengping and Gu Nana.

She then continued, “Jiang Mei, your son, and Liu Mei, your daughter, will both be arrested and sent to prison! Also, since your children have caused such a big scandal. Do you think you can still keep your jobs?”

When Liu Zhihe, Gu Jianguo and their wives heard this, their bodies stiffened. Panic and fear appeared in their eyes involuntarily.

Liu Zhengping’s heart was pounding wildly. Leveraging on his parents’ statuses, he threw his weight around wherever he went. But when faced with a real problem, he was more cowardly than anyone else.

“Mother, give her the money quickly.” Liu Zhengping reached out and grabbed Jiang Mei’s arm tightly. “I don’t want to be taken away, nor do I want to labor at the farms.”

Before Jiang Mei could speak, Gu Nana had already shouted, “No, you can’t give it to her. Brother Zhengping, what am I going to do if she takes the money?” This was supposed to be her dowry.

If the money was given to Gu An’an, she would have nothing left.

The thought of all that money being taken away by that b*tch Gu An’an made her want to strangle the girl to death.

Jiang Mei was so angry that her face had turned green. Fixing her dark gaze on Gu Nana, she said in an especially sarcastic tone, “Since when do you have the final say in the Liu family’s matters?”

Although she was reluctant to hand over the money, she only had one son. If Wu Chunhua really went to the neighborhood office to settle this matter, wouldn’t that be the end of her son’s life and future?

So she had no choice.

“I—”

Hearing this, Gu Nana’s face instantly turned pale. On the brink of collapse, she turned to look at Liu Zhengping, hoping that he would stand up for her. In the end, he did not even look at her.

Jiang Mei glared at Gu An’an and said in an unfriendly tone, “We’ll return everything to An’an.”

“Fine, I’ll wait here then. I’ll wait for you to bring the money so that I can count it before handing it over to An’an,” said Wu Chunhua. After speaking, she pulled Gu An’an to stand by her side, clearly showing her intention to protect her.

In the next second, she looked at Liu Mei’e, who was trying to avoid her. She snorted. “Liu Mei’e, don’t even think about hiding. You’d better hand over the dowry that An’an’s mother set aside for her back then. Otherwise, not only will your daughter get into trouble, you won’t get to keep your current job too!”

“I… I…”

Liu Mei’e, who was thinking of bluffing her way through, was speechless after hearing Wu Chunhua’s words.

She was both shocked and afraid. What shocked her was the change in Gu An’an. To think that the girl knew to look for the factory director and Wu Chunhua to back her up. At the same time, she was afraid that something would happen to her daughter and that she would lose her job.

Wu Chunhua’s words and the look of retreat in her mother’s eyes made Gu Nana start to panic.

She hurriedly grabbed Liu Mei’e’s arm and shook her head. “Mother, you can’t give the money to her. You can’t return the dowry to her. If you really hand it over, how am I going to marry into the Liu family?”

Once this money and dowry were gone, how was she going to survive after marrying into the Liu family? She had yet to enter the family, but her future mother-in-law was already unhappy with her. If…

If she married into the Liu family empty-handed, what would her mother-in-law think of her?

Liu Mei’e glared at her and whispered in her ear, “Bear with it for now. In any case, she’s going to the countryside tomorrow morning. Even if we take the things out now, she won’t be able to take them away. The money will still end up being locked in the house. Eventually, the money will still be yours.”

Gu Nana thought about it and felt that it made sense. Hence, she nodded reluctantly. “Alright, Mother, you have to help me keep a close watch. Don’t let Gu An’an take away the dowry.” The mahogany box was the only thing she had left after marrying into the Liu family.

“Alright, as if I would treat you unfairly?” Liu Mei’e gritted her teeth and then looked up at Wu Chunhua. “Wu Jie, I will return Gu An’an’s dowry. I’ll go back to the house right now and get it for her.”

With that, she turned around to walk into the house.

“I’m going home to get the money too,” Jiang Mei glared at Gu An’an and said hatefully. She was dying to tear the girl apart right now.

She glared at her before walking back home to get the money.

However…

Just as Jiang Mei and Liu Meie were about to take a step forward, Gu An’an suddenly spoke up. The smile on her face sent a shiver down their spines—they had a gut feeling that it would be something bad.

“Wait…”

Jiang Mei gritted her teeth and stared at her. “What are you up to now?”

Gu An’an glanced at her and pointed at Liu Zhengping and Gu Nana. “The two of them shamelessly hooked up and humiliated me with their words. We need to settle these scores, don’t we?”

Then, she shifted her gaze to Liu Mei’e. “And you, Auntie Liu. You tried to cover up your daughter’s dirty deeds and almost beat me to death with a wooden stick. You even colluded with your daughter to secretly replace her spot in the countryside using my name. Shouldn’t we settle these scores as well?”

“You!” Upon hearing her bold and righteous words, both Jiang Mei and Liu Mei’e were taken aback and almost died on the spot.

The two of them glared at Gu An’an menacingly, wishing they could punch a hole in her repulsive face.

Gu An’an couldn’t wait to drive the two of them to their breaking point, so in return, she gave them a wide smile.

“I’ve never been a greedy person. I’ll only take what’s mine. Even if you give me an extra cent, I won’t take it.

“Therefore, Mrs. Jiang, Liu Zhengping was the one who messed around first and humiliated me. I won’t ask for much. You just have to compensate me with 200 yuan as consolation fees for my suffering.”
