Chapter 131 Should I do it?
"And your lives have improved, do you still dare to say that your lives only improved because you spent your mother's money for her funeral?"
"And that cake you made, it must have been given to you by your mother, otherwise, with your character, how could you possibly make such a delicious cake?"
"Lin Cai, Lin Cai, you are truly heartless! Even if your third branch has been separated, you still can't treat your mother like this!"
Hearing these words, Lin Cai almost laughed herself to death. She had kindly picked up the person, cleaned them up, and raised them well, but now she was being falsely accused by these people.
She, Li Guixiang, got the person out and then abandoned them. Now that the person is safe and sound, eating well, dressed well, and sleeping well, is Li Guixiang jealous?
Not only was Lin Cai almost laughing out of anger, but even Scarface, who was watching the show from behind, was shocked.
He's been a scoundrel before, and he's done shameless things, but compared to this woman, his shamelessness is utterly incomparable.
This woman in front of him can turn black into white. He didn't have that ability back then; at most, he would just use a knife when he couldn't win an argument.
"Li Guixiang!! Anyone who knows you're crying and wailing will know you're standing up for your mother, but anyone who doesn't know you'd think someone in your family died."
"You keep saying that I owe my current situation to my mother's money and the family's support, so I'd like to ask you, when did my mother go missing?"
How much silver did you have on you when you got lost?
"Where did you get all that silver, and when did you discover it?"
After being bombarded with questions, Li Guixiang was a little confused. After realizing what was happening, she immediately jumped up and said...
"How could I possibly answer these questions now? I was so frantic when my mother went missing, I didn't have time to think about these things."
"You're frantic because someone's gone missing, so why don't you report it to the authorities?"
Li Guixiang wanted to say that reporting to the authorities was useless, but before she could speak, she heard: "The person is missing, and the money is missing too. So much time has passed, and there hasn't been a single piece of news."
"Even if you don't care about people, don't you care about money? It seems that the eldest sister-in-law of the Gu family is quite carefree!"
"He doesn't care about his own mother, and he doesn't even care about the money in the house."
The person speaking was Wang Aniu, the neighbor next to Old Gu's house. She had married into the family and had been living there for decades. Now everyone called her Aunt Wang.
She came to see Lin Cai today to discuss something, but she didn't expect to hear this gossip as soon as she arrived.
They were all elderly women, and the Gu family and their family had never gotten along. The men were all fine, but the women were quite antagonistic towards each other.
Normally, if something happens in your family or mine, everyone would watch the show. But now that Li Guixiang has caused such a big commotion, how could Aunt Wang possibly miss such an opportunity to watch the drama unfold?
After hearing what Li Guixiang said, she couldn't help but come in: "Old Master Gu, your ability to lie through your teeth is getting better and better."
"Can't you tell what kind of life your mother-in-law lived under your care, and what kind of life she lived here?"
"You say your mother-in-law disappeared and took the money with her. Then tell me, how much money did your mother-in-law take with her?"
Li Guixiang was speechless when asked the question, and she glared angrily at the suddenly appearing Aunt Wang.
"Old hag Wang, shut up! This is a matter for the Gu family. What does it have to do with you, a woman surnamed Wang?"
"Get out, get out of here right now! Let me tell you, our Gu family's affairs are none of anyone else's business. Don't be a busybody here."
When you can't win an argument, you resort to insults; only a shrew like Li Guixiang would do something like that.
But how could Aunt Wang leave like that? She looked at Li Guixiang with disdain and said, "If anyone should leave, it's you. Why should I leave?"
"This is the Gu family home, not your old Gu family home. I'm not even standing in your yard, so what right do you have to tell me to get out?"
"You threw a tantrum in someone else's house and told them to get out! You're the most shameless person in the entire Gu family village. I really don't know how the Gu family found such a shrew as their daughter-in-law!"
The verbal attacks escalated into physical assaults, and the two women started arguing. Scarface, carrying his prey, walked around them.
"Are we just going to let these two women argue like this?"
"Why don't you go over and try to persuade him?" Lin Cai glanced at Scarface.
Scarface shook his head: "What's there to advise? I'm not like I have nothing better to do."
After saying that, Scarface moved his hands, then picked up his prey and walked towards the woodshed.
He had to take the old lady back home, otherwise what if that shrew accused him of kidnapping an elderly person if he took her out later?
Scarface left, and Lin Cai ignored the noise in the yard, brought out the beans, and listened to the gossip while picking up the rotten beans.
They're all wives from Gujia Village, married into the family decades ago. These old women know a lot of things.
"...Wang Aniu, you old hag, are you just going to go against me today?"
"You think I'm going against you? Didn't you want to go against me? I only said a few words to you, and look what you said!"
That damned woman Li Guixiang has told me all those trivial, rotten things. If she can tell them, why can't I?
"So what if I said it? I'm telling the truth. You, Granny Wang, can do it all, so why are you afraid of what others say?"
Li Guixiang didn't think she was wrong. After all, what she said was the truth, so what was there to hide?
"Yes, you're right, what you said is true, and what I said is also true..."
"When your father-in-law died..."
"Ahhh, Wang Aniu, you old hag, shut up!"
Before Aunt Wang could finish speaking, Li Guixiang called out, and Lin Cai looked up at Li Guixiang.
Then Li Guixiang glared at Wang Da Niang with a ferocious expression: "Wang A Niu, that happened so many years ago, what's there to say? You still have designs on my father-in-law, are you still harboring wicked intentions?"
Upon hearing this, Aunt Wang dropped the basket in her hand, shouted, and rushed towards Li Guixiang.
"Li Guixiang, you heartless, rotten bastard, I'll tear your mouth apart..."
The two women started fighting in the yard. Lin Cai frowned when she saw them wrestling.
There are quite a few things in the yard, and it would be bad if these two women got involved in their fight.
She called out towards the door, "Aren't you going to come in and pull it open? Do you want me to do it myself?"
Scarface, who had just returned, reluctantly walked in upon hearing the noise.
