Chapter 499: Caught in the Act
Mu Keer went further to say that Jia Li’s biological mother was still alive and that the two shared the same traits of abandoning their loved ones after making it.
“Thank you for telling us about this.” Old Mrs. Hang said with a painful smile. She was still sad and disappointed at her daughter’s death, and with the new information, Mu Keer revealed to them.
Mu Keer felt satisfied that her plans has worked, and now, it was time to get money from them.
“There is no need to thank me. Your daughter was really a special one to my family, and we took good care of her. I know when you first stepped into my house, you were uncomfortable, but there is nothing I can do as a poor widow who needs to strive in other to put food on the table for my two children, who has long quit school.”
The Huang family was not daft to know that she was indirectly asking them for money. Old Mrs. Huang turned to her son and said, “Give her ¥5,000.”
Mu Keer was shocked that she was going to get that sum of money in one day. 5,000 Yuan was a huge sum of money to her, and since she was born, she has never held that amount of money in her hands all at once.
When Mu Keer touched the bundle of money that was given to her, she still couldn’t believe it, and due to her shock, she almost forgot to thank the Huang family.
“Ah… look at me. I’m sorry for my bad manners. As a widow who hasn’t seen ¥500 in a long time, this is a lot of money to me, and I am still shocked by it.” Mu Keer said with a big smile.
“There is no need to be apologetic, and no need to see us out, we can leave by ourselves.” Huang Li’s Sister said with a smile that was not a smile.
“No… I must at least work you to the door, or that will be rude of me.” Mu Keer insisted, and they let her walk them to the door.
Mu Keer couldn’t let go of the money she was given. She still carried it to send the Huang family off.
Outside the house, Huang Li’s sister breathed a sigh of relief.
“Finally, I can now breathe fresh air. But mother, why did you give so much money to that woman? Mere looking at her, I don’t think she deserves it.”
“She is the sister-in-law of Li, and she is poor, and hopefully, that money will be of great help to her.” Old Mrs. Huang said.
“Mum, do you actually believe what that woman said to us? I still refuse to accept the fact that Huang Li will run away just to be with a man that will cheat on her.” Huang Li’s brother said as anger was evident in his tone.
What he said is right. Mu Keer just told them that Jia Li was not their sister’s biological child, but she raised her with her husband, Mr. Qin.
Knowing his Sister’s personality, she was not one that will continue to stay with a man that cheated on her and even had a child with another woman after the huge sacrifice she made to be with him.
Mu Keer told them that Jia Li was raised by Huang Li as a baby, and no matter how one listened or tried to interpret this story, there was surely a loophole.
“I also do not believe her. I know a bit of psychology, and can tell that she was only after getting money from us, and why would she talk down on her niece in front of an outsider? She wanted us to take pity on her, and give her money. It’s obvious that she is greedy, and a greedy person will do anything to get what he wanted.” Huang Li’s sister said.
Old Mrs. Huang sighed and said to them, “I also do not want to believe all that she told us, but what can we do? There is no other person to give us answers.”
“The answers she gave to us, were not important as knowing how Huang Li died. It seems like this matter is huge, and everybody is trying to hide it from us.” Huang Li’s brother said.
“Look at us, we came all the way here, and after confirming that Li is dead, we forgot to get the address to the graveyard she was buried.” Old Mrs. Huang said as she stopped in her steps.
“That’s true. Brother, you support mum to the car, while I go back to get the address from that woman.” Huang Li’s sister said.
“No problem, go ahead, but don’t take time.” Her brother said to her before escorting their aged mother to the car.
As Huang Li’s sister made her way back to Mu Keer’s house, she could hear her voice from a little distance because she was literally shouting.
“…Jia Li, this is just the beginning! For how you have ignored me these past years, I will never allow you to meet your mother’s family!!!.”
The first daughter of the Huang family looked shocked to hear this that she paused in her steps. Her legs were now too heavy for her to move them.
She was still thinking about what she just heard Mu Keer say. ‘Did she lie to us? Why?’. After standing at the same spot for a few seconds, she didn’t hear any other words from Mu Keer, as it seemed she just finished talking.
No matter how confused and angry she was, all she had to do was just to calm down, get the address from Mu Keer and leave. As for the remaining matter, she would investigate it when she goes back to the City.
Mu Keer was so happy with the money that after swearing to make sure that Jia Li never reunites with her mother’s family, she sat down on the most comfortable chair in their living room and asked her daughter to write a shop list, so they could go to the market to buy them, and amongst all the items she asked her to jot down, there were a few expensive items there.
