After marrying an officer, she was spoiled by the group

Chapter 839 The Bracelet is Missing

"Silly child, you need money right now. Even though it's not much, it can at least be used in an emergency, unless you think it's too little."

"How can I think it's too little? It's just that I can't repay your favor at all now."

"Oh, it's just a small amount of money. What's there to talk about favors with? As long as you are fine in the future, that's more important than anything else. My dear child, you should listen to your parents more in the future and don't act recklessly. Even though your parents' words may not be pleasant to hear, they are for your own good." An old lady advised earnestly.

Xiaomei nodded while crying: "I understand, Auntie. I will not let my parents worry about me anymore and I will listen to them carefully."

"Okay, you're a good kid if you admit your mistakes and correct them. Put the money away and hide it well. Don't let anyone steal it." The old lady wiped her tears and said in a choked voice.

Xiaomei could only nod her head, already sobbing uncontrollably.

Seeing this, Fu Ling distracted her and said, "Xiaomei, go pack your things. I'll wait for you here."

Xiaomei then remembered that she still had something important to do. She wiped away her tears and nodded, "Okay, I'll go right away."

Xiaomei's mother-in-law was immediately furious. Everything in the house belonged to her. Now someone wanted to take it away, which was like cutting her flesh. She refused to comply and forbade it without thinking: "I don't have anything of yours in my house. Come back here. If you dare to take anything, I will fight you to the death."

As he was about to rush over, he was stopped by Su Tian, ​​who imitated Fu Ling and kicked Grandma Xiaomei in the stomach.

Although he wasn't as strong as Fu Ling, he was still strong enough to give her a hard time.

The one who was kicked held his stomach and howled on the spot.

"Old man, you never learned your lesson! You're so shameless! Is that your thing? Have you ever bought Xiaomei anything decent? I've seen shameless people, but I've never seen anyone as shameless as you. It really changes my worldview."

"I'll stand here today. Anyone who dares to stop Xiaomei from getting back what belongs to her will have to go through this first." Su Tian put her hands on her hips and looked unruly.

The villagers just wanted to laugh when they saw this. Su Tian's words had no authority at all, like a fox borrowing the power of a tiger, and had no deterrent effect.

Fu Ling felt that the girl had grown a lot. If it were in the past, she could only show off her power with her words, but now she dared to take action.

Xiaomei returned to her room. Although her home was poor before, she had always kept it in good order. But now, not long after, it was turned into a mess.

Suddenly realizing something, my heart sank, and without caring about anything else, I hurriedly moved the wooden bed away.

There was a hole under the wooden bed where she hid some of her valuables, even her husband didn't know about it.

But the five dollars and the silver bracelet that were originally placed there had long disappeared.

She broke down and cried.

When Fu Ling heard Xiaomei crying, he hurried into the house to check what was going on.

"What happened?" Fu Ling asked with concern.

Then he looked around the room and immediately understood what had happened: "Someone took your things?"

"Beast! He is simply a beast! That's all I have left, but he didn't even leave me that little wish!!" Xiaomei's eyes were filled with anger.

Helping Xiaomei up from the ground, Fu Ling comforted her, "Look around the house again. Maybe he didn't take her out."

Xiaomei shook her head in pain, "It's impossible to get it back. He must have pawned it. That bastard gambled away any money he had. I guess it's all gone long ago."

How could she have fallen for such a piece of trash in the first place? She was so devoted to him, as if she had been blinded by greed, and even went against her parents. It's really ironic to think about it now.

"Don't cry, I will get it back for you."

"Can it really be found?" Xiaomei no longer held any hope.

"Of course, when have I ever lied to you?" Fu Ling replied with a smile.

Xiaomei felt relieved immediately, wiped away her tears, and began to pack her clothes.

The few pieces of clothing he had were carelessly thrown on the ground, already becoming dirty from being stepped on.

She picked them up one by one, found a relatively clean bed sheet to wrap them up, and made a simple bundle.

Some of those clothes were even in tatters, but Xiaomei still collected them without disgust.

"Anything else?"

Xiaomei looked around the small house and shook her head, "No more, these are all I had when I came here."

Fu Ling's heart sank but he didn't say much.

Returning to the main hall, Su Tian asked with concern: "Xiaomei, what happened?"

"Xiaomei's bracelet was taken away by her husband."

Su Tian's eyes widened immediately: "What did you say? He took it away? Why would a man like him hold the bracelet?"

"What else can I do besides exchanging it for money?"

"How shameless! How much can it be exchanged for? He must be crazy because of poverty." Su Tian said in disbelief.

Just as she was about to say something, Fu Ling's eyes signaled her not to say any more.

Only then did I realize that I had been talking too much.

Fu Ling said to the village gate: "Thank you very much for your witness. It's getting late. Uncles, aunts and grandmas, please go back first."

"Okay, then we'll go back first. Let me know if anything happens."

"Xiaomei, think positively and don't act stupid again, okay?"

"You are still young and have a long way to go. Don't try to commit suicide like before. It's not worth sacrificing yourself for such a person."

Xiaomei felt a warmth in her heart and bowed to everyone again: "Thank you all for your concern. I will remember it all and live a good life in the future."

Seeing her repeated assurances, the villagers also retreated one after another.

Peace returned to the Liu family.

Fu Ling stepped forward, stepped on Old Man Liu's injured leg and crushed it: "Don't play dead."

"Ah!! My feet!" Old Liu's expression was distorted with a headache.

"I thought you were dead. I'm glad you're not dead... Shut up. I have some questions for you." Fu Ling's words were much more effective than Su Tian's. Old man Liu didn't dare to scream out. Even though he was shaking with pain, he tried his best to endure it.

"Very good, where did your son go?" Fu Ling asked.

"I...I don't know." Old Liu was sweating profusely due to a headache, and his voice was trembling.

"You are his father, how could you not know where he went? Isn't your son the one who listens to you the most?" Fu Ling said sarcastically.

"I really don't know. Maybe he went to look for a job and was kicked out."

"Then do you know that your son likes gambling?"

"Don't talk nonsense. My son is very well behaved. How could he gamble?"

Judging from his expression, he had obviously been kept in the dark. Fu Ling looked at Xiaomei in confusion.

Xiaomei explained: "He was afraid of getting beaten up, so I was the only one who knew about his gambling. I only found out when he asked me for money. Normally, he would be more honest when he didn't have money, but as long as he had some money, he would go gambling."

"You're talking nonsense. How could my son gamble?" Xiaomei's mother-in-law didn't believe it was true at all. She raised her son and knew his character very well.
