Chapter 600 - 599: Liu Cuihua and Her Daughter Scheme

    <h4>Chapter 600: Chapter 599: Liu Cuihua and Her Daughter Scheme</h4><h4></h4>


    Everyone turned their heads and saw a ck car slowly approaching the entrance of the vige on the road in.


    "Ah, my son-inw has arrived!"


    Yu Jin’eughed and scurried to greet him.


    The vigers all showed expressions of realization and envy.


    In the vige, the owner of a ck car was none other than Yu Jin’e’s wealthy son-inw, wasn’t it?


    This time, no one knew how many nice things he had brought for the elderly couple.


    Ever since marrying Shen Hongmei, Zhao Dafa would visit from time to time, always with big and small packages, and even when he was busy, he would send his secretary to deliver things, making everyone within ten miles envious.


    Yu Jin’e ran up to the car puffing with joy, showing off her big teeth with augh, but when the car door opened, the person inside wasn’t Zhao Dafa.


    Yu Jin’e, refusing to believe it, bent over to look inside the car, and upon seeing Shen Ban, she said irritably, "How is it you? Why are you driving my son-inw’s car?"


    Shen Ban snorted with augh, "Aunt Jin’e, take a good look. This is the new car Shuhuan from our family just bought!"


    Yu Jin’e looked more closely and realized that the car was indeed newer than Zhao Dafa’s, with different decorations and leather seats.


    Good gracious, had Zhou Shuhuan really struck it rich? He even bought a car!!


    "Shuhuan, Ban, it really is you guys!"


    Liu Cuihua, with her sharp eyes, recognized her daughter and son-inw through the half-open car door and called out as she hurriedly ran over.


    "Ah, it really is the Shen Ban couple!"


    After seeing Zhou Shuhuan and Shen Bane out of the car, the vigers swarmed around them.


    "Shen Ban, did Shuhuan also start driving a car?"


    "I heard that your Shuhuan has made it big, became a millionaire. Is it true or false?"


    The vigers chattered all at once, all looking at her with shock and envy, greatly satisfying Shen Ban’s vanity andpetitiveness.


    "Shuhuan, hurry and tell everyone, did Shen Mingzhu and her husband falsely use you of taking five hundred thousand?"


    Liu Cuihua’s words were like a bombshell, and the noisy scene suddenly quieted down.


    Everyone’s gaze was fixed on Zhou Shuhuan, awaiting his response.


    Qin Jinlian couldn’t stand it anymore, bursting forth with anger and pushing her way up to Zhou Shuhuan, "Zhou Shuhuan, my Mingzhu and Pei Yang never provoked you, if you dare to smear them with false usations, I won’t let you off the hook!"


    Liu Cuihua sneered, "Qin Jinlian, feeling guilty now, are you? Afraid that my son-inw will expose your daughter and son-inw’s true malicious natures, huh?"


    "Bullshit! Afraid of you? What can you do? Bring it on, even if it costs me my life, I’ll stand my ground against you until the end!"


    As the two started quarreling again, Shen Dequan quickly intervened to mediate, "Enough, stop fighting. Shuhuan is right here, let him speak, let’s find out if this matter is true."


    "Right, Shuhuan, tell us, is it true?"


    "Shuhuan, did Mingzhu and her husband really falsely use you of five hundred thousand?"


    Shen Ban wanted to open her mouth and use Shen Mingzhu for Zhou Shuhuan, but she didn’t dare.


    Zhou Shuhuan, having found sess, not only had a bigger temper than before but also carried the authority of a family head, brooking no defiance from her.


    Although Zhou Shuhuan didn’t understand the whole story, he could guess that Shen Ban and his mother-inw had spoken about the five hundred thousand matter.


    "Pei Yang didn’t falsely use me of taking any money."


    Hearing his words, the whole vige immediately turned to look at Liu Cuihua in unison.


    Qin Jinlian was so ted she almost jumped up, "There you have it, everyone heard Shuhuan say it, there’s no such thing! It’s Liu Cuihua, this damn liar stirring trouble, trying to frame my daughter and son-inw. That’s truly disgraceful!"


    Many vigers likewise voiced their agreement, criticizing Liu Cuihua for making unwarranted trouble and not acting honorably.


    Liu Cuihua was both angry and anxious as she grabbed her daughter to question her, "Didn’t you say that Shen Mingzhu and her husband swindled 500,000 from their son-inw?"


    Shen Ban stood her ground righteously, "They did actually take 500,000 from Shuhuan."


    Liu Cuihua immediately looked at Zhou Shuhuan, but before she could ask him, Zhou Shuhuan began to exin proactively:


    "Pei Yang did indeed take 500,000 from me, but this money was rightly his. When I started the electronics factory, I was short of cash. It was Pei Yang who provided the money and helped get the factory off the ground."


    Upon hearing this, Liu Cuihua straightened up confidently, "There, you hear that? I’m not ndering Shen Mingzhu and her husband—they did take 500,000 from my son-inw!"


    At this, the vigers turned their heads and began to criticize Qin Jinlian again.


    "Your Mingzhu really took 500,000 from someone? Isn’t that a bit too heartless?"


    "We’re all from the same vige, we should help each other out a little. How could you have the nerve to ask for so much money?"


    Qin Jinlian didn’t know about this matter, but she refused to admit defeat, pointing at the people who were speaking ill and retorting one by one.


    "Easy for you to talk when you’re not the one in pain. If that money was given to you, would you not take it?"


    "My son-inw gave real money to start his factory with his skills, why shouldn’t he take it? Without my daughter helping him, could Zhou Shuhuan afford cars, houses, and be a big boss? Dream on!"


    "I’m telling you, if I hear anyone talking behind my daughter and son-inw’s backs again, see if I don’t tear their mouths apart!"


    "And you have the nerve to call my daughter and son-inw heartless, I think you all are heartless and ungrateful, wagging your tails like a cur dog when receiving favors, but badmouthing as soon as you finish eating. I have no respect for you all!"


    Those who had spoken up for Liu Cuihua were scolded until they were red-faced and couldn’t lift their heads.


    Over the years, the vige’s jujubes, potatoes, soybeans, corn, peanuts, and other grain crops had all been sold to food factories, improving the ie of every household.


    Shen Mingzhu also bought stationery for the vige children every year and sent food and clothing.


    The whole world could scold Shen Mingzhu, but they had no right to.


    Although no one dared to speak ill of her daughter and son-inw anymore, Qin Jinlian was still not appeased and turned to attack Zhou Shuhuan once again.


    "Zhou Shuhuan, I’ll ask you just one thing, should my son-inw take this money or not?"


    Liu Cuihua, of course, wouldn’t let her son-inw be bullied by Qin Jinlian, "Qin Jinlian, things should be settled individually. Your daughter helped the vige willingly, and no one forced her to do good deeds. Demanding such arge sum of money from my son-inw is downright heartless!"


    "Liu Cuihua, this matter has nothing to do with you. Get lost, or don’t me me for being rude!"


    "Come on, you think I’m afraid of you?"


    Seeing that the two were about toe to blows, Zhou Shuhuan had no choice but to speak up, "Stop arguing. The 500,000 is what Pei Yang deserves, and it was agreed upon between us. Pei Yang didn’t swindle me."


    With that, themotion finally settled down.


    But the mood among Shenjiagou’s people did not calm down with it.


    Zhou Shuhuan had be wealthy, now a millionaire big boss.


    Shen Mingzhu and her husband had earned 500,000.


    These two pieces of news were like two heavy bombs, almost shaking the small Shenjiagou.


    Whether it was a million or 500,000, for Shenjiagou’s people, it was an unimaginable wealth beyond their wildest dreams.


    And the happiest of all was Qin Jinlian.


    Her daughter and son-inw had made such arge sum of money, and from the old rival Liu Cuihua’s son-inw at that, it was truly an asion for double celebration.


    To celebrate, she specially ughtered her beloved old hen and stewed it in a big pot full of mushrooms.


    In stark contrast to Qin Jinlian, Liu Cuihua was so upset by the 500,000 that her heart and liver ached.


    After thinking it over for a whole night and getting nowhere, she simply discussed with Shen Ban how to make things difficult for Shen Mingzhu and to vent some spleen.
