Chapter 541: Stealing the fifty thousand yuan

Seeing that her brother was still unconvinced, she said to him, "Let them do whatever they want to do. However, as long as we know what they are up to, we will be fine." She had a lot of certainty in her voice. "Mom thinks that she has hidden her secret deep in the water, and no one would be able to find out the truth. But now that we have found the truth about her, what are you even worried about? Once we have settled our own affairs, then we will start collecting more and more evidence."

Han Yong looked at his younger sister. When he noticed the iron stillness in her eyes, he thought of the ocean. He, for some reason, had a feeling that he was looking at a deep-sea predator waiting for the tide to turn and slowly bowed his head.

"I understand. Since you don’t want to let anyone know, then I will not say a word, but Ruochen... you have to make sure that you let me know everything that you find out. I don’t want to be kept in the dark," said Han Yong with a hint of grievance in his voice. He thought about how Han Ruochen had been keeping such a big thing in her heart for so long. If only she had told him the truth, then he could have supported her.

On the other side, Meng Yunhan was still upset when she thought about how she had to clean the entire house with Han Ziyan. What was more, she knew that with Han Ziyan’s condition, she wouldn’t be able to do much, which meant that she would be the one who would do the entire house’s cleaning!

"Mom, listen to me." Han Ziyan pulled Meng Yunhan to one side. "Mom, when I stopped you from making a fuss with Dad, there was a reason."

"What do you mean by that there was a reason? What reason could you have other than cleaning the house?" She asked angrily. It was bad enough that she was scolded by Han Yichen in front of everyone, and now she had to clean the house on top of that.

"Mom, don’t be foolish. We are a family. Everyone has a share in that fifty thousand yuan that Han Ruochen won. Why should she be allowed to keep this money when we are asked to hand over our salary? She should also hand some money to the house! Anyway, you are her mother. There is no such thing in this world as not sharing the money with one’s parents."

To put it simply, whatever Han Ruochen had belonged to them; whatever belonged to them was only theirs!

"But she still refuses to hand the money over, so there is nothing that we can do." Meng Yunhan was also distressed when she thought about how Han Ruochen had been rewarded with fifty thousand yuan.

Han Ziyan: "..."

She rolled her eyes and said, "When you needed ten thousand yuan for Dad, you somehow managed to get it, right, even when Dad disagreed. How were you able to do it?"

Who said that they should get the consent of the rest of the family to get Han Ruochen’s money?

Everyone was one family. Everything should be shared between them. In other words, she and her mother were only taking a share of their own money, and there was nothing wrong with it.

No one should be asked to get the consent of the rest of the family to take their own things, right? That would be a joke. Everyone was one family in the end.

"Ziyan... Do you mean that we should steal her money?" According to what Han Ziyan asked her to do, there was only one thing she could think of. She wanted to steal Han Ruochen’s money!

"What do you mean by stealing? We are from the same family. Isn’t Han Ruochen your daughter, and I am her sister? Whatever belongs to Han Ruochen, it belongs to us as well. Do you mean you stole the ten thousand yuan from Dad?"

"No! Your dad is my husband, and his money is mine. I have the right to spend it."

"That’s what I am trying to tell you. Han Ruochen is still unmarried, and whatever belongs to her, belongs to you as well. If she were married, then I would have never asked you to take her money. But she is still an unmarried woman; what is she going to do with so much money?" Han Ziyan was glad that she was able to make Meng Yunhan understand what she was trying to tell her.

"That wretched girl is really smart...I am afraid that it will be very hard to get her money."

"Hey, Mom. The reason why we could not find any money at home was that she did not bring any money. We didn’t know where she put the money. However, it is different this time. Han Ruochen has the money with her; even if she really wants to hide it, where would she be able to hide it? At the very least, she needs to keep the money in our house tonight. Since we are cleaning the house, it will be easy to find the money."

Meng Yunhan’s eyes lit up. "It makes sense, Ziyan; you are really smart. Unlike me. I am so muddleheaded. Why did I not think about such a thing? Okay, it’s settled. We will steal her money."

"Mom, we are not in a hurry. Dad wants us to clean the house, but he did not say that we have to do it today. We can do it at our own pace, lest Sister Ruochen hide her money too well." At the mention of the fifty thousand yuan, Han Ziyan’s eyes were red with jealousy. Not only was that woman able to get acquainted with the magistrate, but she was also rewarded with fifty thousand yuan. This was something that she could not stomach!

Since she was not happy, Han Ruochen could forget about being happy altogether.
