Jiang Ling looked up and down, her voice cold, "He's quite handsome. Looks expensive, right?"

Before Li Meiyue could cover her son's mouth, the silly boy had already picked up another pair of shoes and started showing off, "A pair costs more than 4,000 yuan. My mother bought me two pairs at once so that I could wear them alternately."

Li Meiyue: …

She never expected that Jiang Ling would come to her house without saying hello. She didn't even have the time to hide the two pairs of shoes before her silly son took them out to show off.

Jiang Ling fixed her eyes on Li Meiyue and said in a chilling voice, "Big sister, have you become rich recently? You can even afford to buy such expensive shoes?"

Four thousand yuan!

That’s a month’s salary for an ordinary local person. Who would be willing to buy such shoes for their children?

But that's it?

Li Meiyue felt uneasy, but she didn't show it on her face. "It's rare for a child to like this. I saved up money for a long time to buy it for him. Does my sister-in-law want to talk to me about something?"

"It's okay. I just stopped by to see my elder sister. Is my brother-in-law watching TV?"

Jiang Ling greeted Wang Yongqiang, then turned around and saw two large durians on the coffee table. "Hey, brother-in-law is eating such expensive fruit?"

Wang Yongqiang helped break open the durian and handed it to Jiang Ling, "Your sister bought it on the way home from get off work. I told you not to buy such an expensive one, so you eat it too."

Li Meiyue felt uncomfortable seeing this.

Such expensive durian, costing hundreds of dollars each. She carried the heavy durian all the way back and hasn’t even had a bite of it yet. Why should she give it to Jiang Ling?

"Sister-in-law doesn't like the taste, so just drink water." Li Meiyue snatched the durian from Jiang Ling and put it in the refrigerator, then went into the kitchen and poured her a glass of boiled water.

Jiang Ling knew what was going on. Seeing her stingy look, she tutted her tongue twice and said, "I haven't been here for a while, but my elder sister is living such a good life. I'm so envious!"

"Yes, my mom is very rich." Li Meiyue's son came over and boasted to Jiang Ling, "Last time I had an argument with a classmate and beat that boy up, his father insisted on expelling me from school, and my mom just gave him 20,000 yuan to shut him up."

"Go back and study! You keep talking nonsense here all day long!" Li Meiyue never expected that her thoughts would be revealed to the silly boy. She pushed her son into the bedroom in anger.

Through the door, one could hear the boy's unwilling cries. Finally, Li Meiyue pushed the door open a little embarrassedly, "I'm so sorry, sister-in-law, it's just nonsense from a child, don't take it to heart."

Jiang Ling's mind was as clear as a mirror.

Two pairs of shoes cost eight thousand, plus twenty thousand given to classmates, plus the durian and other miscellaneous items, which means Li Meiyu has thirty or forty thousand in her hands. By the same token, Wang Chunhua should also have thirty or forty thousand in her hands.

Her gold bracelet worth 120,000 yuan was sold by them for only 70,000 or 80,000 yuan. It was such a waste of resources.

But it doesn’t matter, she has a way to make them pay back double!

"Sister, brother-in-law, I actually came to see you today for something." Jiang Ling changed the subject and acted aggrieved. "You know, Dongyang and I always quarrel, and sometimes he doesn't even give me living expenses. Last month, my mother bought me a gold bracelet, and I thought about buying it to supplement the family income. I wanted to ask my sister-in-law if he knows the buyer?"

When Li Meiyue heard the words "gold bracelet", the corner of her eye suddenly twitched.

What a guilty conscience brings about these consequences. Could it be that Jiang Ling discovered something?

impossible!

No one saw her and Wang Chunhua stealing things, so who can prove that she was the one who stole them?

As long as no one proves it, she will never admit it!

"How do we know each other? Why don't you go ask someone else?" Li Meiyue wanted to chase him away.

Jiang Ling sat steadily, looking at her with tears in her eyes, "Sister, my family is really short of money, how about you lend me some first? I'll pay you back later!"

Wang Yongqiang looked at Jiang Ling with pity, "I'm sorry, sister-in-law. Why don't you wait until I get your salary..."

"Husband, what nonsense are you talking about? You have to pay for our son's tuition after you get your salary, so how can you have extra money?" Before Wang Yongqiang finished speaking, Li Meiyue interrupted him. She pouted angrily and said, "Sister-in-law, it stands to reason that we relatives should help each other, but you also know that my family is not well off, and we really can't do anything about it."

He just bought eight thousand yuan worth of shoes and several hundred yuan worth of durian, but now he feels powerless. Jiang Ling also witnessed this shameless face.

Wang Yongqiang was interrupted by his wife and had to turn his head away and continue watching TV.

Li Meiyue smiled wryly, "Sister-in-law, why don't you go ask our mom, maybe she can lend you some money, after all, she is your mother-in-law!"

Jiang Ling also smiled, "Yes, I'm going to my mother-in-law's house later."

She was just testing him, but she scared Li Meiyue like this.

She decided to add fuel to the fire.

Turning around and seeing Wang Yongqian reading the news about theft, Jiang Ling's eyes rolled and a plan came to her mind, "Brother-in-law, are there still thieves these days?"

"Of course. If you have any valuables at home, make sure they are kept well." Wang Yongqiang specifically reminded.

"Really? I don't have anything valuable at home, but I heard that burglary is pretty serious. It seems that if the amount is over a thousand dollars, a criminal case can be filed."

"Yeah, I heard that too. It seems the sentence is pretty severe."

"Yes, yes, I'll check..." Jiang Ling took out her phone and started checking right in front of Li Meiyu, reading as she checked, "The amount of theft is huge, uh, more than 30,000 is considered a huge amount, and the sentence is more than three years in prison, or even ten years... Tsk tsk, it's really scary..."

As she spoke, she glanced at Li Meiyue out of the corner of her eye.

Li Meiyue sat beside the coffee table, her face pale and her lips trembling, "Three, more than three years? Is that so?"

"Why not? This is a crime!" Jiang Ling looked at her seriously, "So, sister, we must all be law-abiding citizens and never steal."

"I, of course I wouldn't do that. Do I need you to tell me?" Li Meiyue tried to stay alert, her eyes a little vague. "I don't think he should be sentenced to so many years. After all, what if they are relatives, family members? How can this be considered theft?"

"Taking something without asking is stealing!" Jiang Ling stared at her, taking in every change in her expression. "Sister, it sounds like you've ever stolen something from a relative?"

"How is this possible? Don't talk nonsense. I'm a good person!" Li Meiyue couldn't sit still any longer. She stood up and urged Jiang Ling to leave quickly. "It's getting late. Sister-in-law, go to mom's place."

Jiang Ling didn't move, and looked at her calmly, "Sister, you really don't have anything to say to me?"

She gave her one last chance, and if she insisted on committing suicide, she had no choice but to oblige her.

Li Meiyue swallowed hard.

Anyway, Jiang Ling has no evidence and she refuses to admit it. What can Jiang Ling do?

"What can I say? Are you really joking, sister-in-law, or do you have something else to talk to me about?"
