Strict Wife of the '70s Manages the Household

Second sister-in-law also went over to demand her credit, “Mother, the money box is here. Lin Lan couldn’t take it with me here, so it’s fine. I grabbed it with all my might, but it was almost snatched by that shrew,” She knew that the old lady had all her money and all kinds of tickets hidden in this box.

Old Lady Han didn’t know where she got that ounce of strength, but she pushed the second sister-in-law suddenly and opened the big closet. She saw that the clothes were scattered, the embroidered shoe had been exposed and there was nothing inside.

“Oh God—” Old Lady Han screamed, but she felt that the whole world was spinning. Her eyes were dark as she plummeted on the ground.

…

The second sister-in-law was stunned. She clearly grabbed the money box from Lin Lan’s grasp, so why was the old lady still unhappy?

She didn’t care about the grievances and quickly went to help the old lady, “Mother, mother!”

Old Man Han immediately understood what was going on— the old lady must have hidden a lot of money somewhere in the pile, but it seemed that it had been stolen.

Old Lady Han couldn’t stand the blow as she was stunned.

The others, save for the eldest sister-in-law, were also rather confused. The money box was safe in their hands, so why was the old lady reacting so badly about it?

Han Jinyu took a look and realised that Lin Lan had just taken a quilt, even though it was something that his third brother had brought home. She could take however many quilts she wanted as it was no big deal, so he didn’t understand why his mother would react so strongly to its disappearance to the point of almost fainting.

Old Man Han helped Old Lady Han up on the kang. He pinched her and stroked her chest, trying to get her to calm down.

She called out again, “Quick, quick… Old man, hurry and find her. We need to get it back, we need to—”

In an instant, everyone felt that the old lady had suddenly become ten years older.

Han Jinbao was still lying on the kang and repetitively said that he was going to beat them up, but no one paid any attention to him.

The Old Man Han promised to find Han Yongfang in person to preside over this situation.

Han Jinyu said that she was going to testify and followed her father.

When they arrived at Han Yongfang’s house, they found that Lin Lan was also there. There was a thick remittance slip bound with some hemp rope on the table.

Han Yongfang was guiding Han Qingyun as the duo seemed to be planning something.

Old Man Han’s head buzzed.

Han Yongfang nodded towards him, “Brother, you came just in time. Have a seat, we’ll talk soon.”

Han Jinyu pointed at Lin Lan and scolded her, “Hurry up and hand over the stolen chicken, eggs, quilt, and mother’s money!”

However, Old Man Han was weak and drained all over. He felt as if the skin all over his body had been forcibly torn off at this moment, leaving a bloody trail of flesh exposed to the world. He didn’t calculate the exact amount of money sent back by his third son, but it was definitely a lot more than 100 Yuan.

The crackling sounds of the abacus were like percussion hits on his soul, making him dizzy. His eyes darkened and he had difficulty breathing.

“Dad, Dad!” Han Jinyu was originally supporting the Old Man Han’s head, but now that she realized he had slipped onto the ground, she grew anxious.

Han Yongfang, “Quick, pinch him and make sure he stays awake.”

Han Yongfang’s wife stepped forward to wake up the old man.

Old Man Han let out a long sigh, “Old Three’s wife, leave us parents some form of dignity, okay? It’s fine, just take what you have taken, father and mother won’t argue with you. Hurry and go home, don’t embarrass the family anymore.”
