Liu Fang’s face darkened when she heard the village chief’s words.
Liu Fang knew that the village chief had always been a mercenary. As long as the school fees could be returned, then she would not mind bargaining with the village chief. However, there were only two possibilities if the school fees could not be returned.
The first possibility was that the school fees had already been handed over to the county and there was really no way to return them. The second possibility was that the village chief had pocketed the benefits of the school fees and was unwilling to return them.
But regardless of which possibility it was, it was likely that she would not be able to get the school fees back today. The matter of Yun Lian going to school seemed to have become a foregone conclusion.
“Let’s go home!”
Liu Fang was also unwilling to stay at the village chief’s house any longer. After all, there was no use in throwing a tantrum here.
Liu Fang could only give Yun Lian a fierce glare and pulled her home together. She wanted to see if she had any other private money hidden in her? She might be able to squeeze out more money.
Yun Lian could only follow Liu Fang with her head lowered without saying a word. She was wondering where to hide the rest of the money so that Liu Fang would not find out.
After returning home, Liu Fang pushed Yun Lian to the bedside and took off her clothes to check if there was really nothing hidden.
However, after looking for a long time, Liu Fang still could not find anything. Not only did Yun Lian not have any cash, but she also did not even have a few cents or pennies.
“Ahhhhh!”
Liu Fang was going crazy from anger because she believed that Yun Lian was hiding money. Yet after beating, scolding, and searching her body, she still could not find a single cent. This made Liu Fang lose control of her emotions.
At this moment, Liu Fang was not the only one who had lost her temper. Li Qin and Wang Long’s emotions had also dropped to the freezing point.
“I really didn’t expect that little girl to be so sharp-tongued today. She doesn’t look old, but she was sharper than I thought.”
Wang Long lit a cigarette and said to Li Qin angrily.
“Tell me about it! That day, it was this girl who told me that Jing Yu opened a medicine shop in the county. Now that I think about it, it’s very likely that she deliberately set a trap for us to get in. Next time, don’t let me see this girl again. If I see her again, I’ll definitely not let her go.”
Li Qin was also very angry. She gritted her teeth and it made a grinding sound.
“No, now that I know about such a big pharmacy and business I will definitely not let it go. Even if she is an iron rooster, I will still scrape some iron blood off her body.”
Wang Long spat out two smoke rings in succession. He was already planning something in his heart.
“Dad, Mom, where did you go this morning? When I came out, I saw that you were not at home. I am still hungry.”
Wang Long’s son, Wang Wu, rubbed his sleepy eyes and came to the yard. He looked at his parents, who both had heavy expressions on their faces and both were silent. However, he had been spoiled since he was young. He did not care what kind of trouble his parents had, and only knew that his parents did not cook for him today. This made him very unhappy.
“Dear son, go in and wait for a while. Mom will cook for you now.”
Seeing her son coming out, Li Qin immediately changed her expression and said to her son in a gentle tone.
Wang Wu also immediately walked into the room and waited for Li Qin to bring the food.
“Li Qin, look at our Wang Wu. He is already so old. In another two years, he will be old enough to get married.”
Wang Long already had a plan in his mind.
“Yeah, why?” Li Qin asked in confusion.
“I remember that the Jing family has a girl named Jing Ning. If we really want this business to belong to our Wang family, how about letting these two get married? Let Wang Wu get his hands on that girl. I don’t believe that we won’t get the share that belongs to the pharmacy.”
Li Qin rolled her eyes and felt that her son would not be at a disadvantage in this matter. Even if the Jing family did not end up marrying their daughter to them in the end, their son would still be able to marry a good daughter-in-law. As for the girl from the Jing family, the rest of her life might be ruined.
“Okay, let’s do it!”
