Chapter 201 The Unjust Sister 15
The city where the original owner lived was the commercial capital of Henan Province. Due to the large size of the city and the large population, the government divided food rations into two days: the 1st and the 15th.
The original owner lived in the steel factory’s family quarters and was number 15 to receive rations.
On this day, before dawn, Dad Zhong pushed his own cart and took Mom Zhong to the Grain Bureau to queue up.
In the past, it was Mother Zhong and the original owner who went to collect food rations every month, and the original owner also cooked at home. The original owner was naive and did not notice that the food rations she brought back were much less. But after Yuanchun possessed the original owner's memories, she immediately discovered that the food rations she brought back did not match the amount of food the original owner cooked every day, which was nearly half less.
That day, she was just testing the waters for Zhong's mother's attitude.
But seeing the guilty conscience in Mother Zhong's eyes, she knew that the missing rations were secretly taken by Mother Zhong and sold on the black market.
And the money from selling...
Yuanchun recalled that in her previous life, not long after the original owner got married, Zhong Guoqiang and Zhong Guohao were separated, and each of the two brothers was given a large apartment of more than 150 square meters.
So, all these years, Mrs. Zhong has been exploiting the original owner in order to buy a house for her two sons?
Yuanchun was cold and stern. She exerted her mental power and scanned the room of Zhong's father and mother. She saw six jars of pickled vegetables under the bed. Those pickles were pickled by the original owners.
But in one of the broken jars with a hole in it, there was a piece of tattered clothing stuffed in it.
When he probed deeper into the clothes with his mental power, he saw a large bag of ten-yuan bills, which contained more than eight hundred yuan.
There was also a loose brick at the base of the wall behind the chest of drawers, with a hole in it. A large bag of money, a total of 7,800 yuan, was stuffed in the hole, as well as a lot of letters, a thick stack of bills of exchange, a house deed, a jade pendant, and a pair of bracelets.
At the bottom of a locked box near the chest of drawers, there was a tattered cotton jacket, patched up with patches, but with a full three thousand yuan sewn inside.
There were still five or six pounds of corn in a small grain jar, but there was also a small cloth bag under the corn, which also contained one thousand eight hundred yuan.
There were also dozens of loose change in the drawer of the wardrobe, which should be kept by Zhong's mother for daily use. The Zhong family, which Zhong's mother always complained about being poor, actually secretly saved more than 10,000 yuan.
No wonder in the last life, after the Zhong family split up, brothers Zhong Guoqiang and Zhong Guohao were able to each get a house of 150 square meters.
Haha, before that, Mother Zhong was crying and telling the original owner that the family had borrowed a lot of foreign debts in order to prepare a dowry for Zhong Yuanfen and to buy her a wedding dress, and they could no longer borrow money, so they had to let her marry without a dowry.
The betrothal money given by the old widower was also withheld by Zhong's mother, who said that she would use it to pay off debts.
It turned out that the Zhong family was not short of money, they just didn't want to spend the money on the original owner.
Yuanchun was filled with resentment and anger.
He scanned his brother and sister's room with his mental power and actually saw a lot of money there.
This made Yuanchun even more heartbroken.
The original owner worked hard from dawn to dusk to make money, but he did not have a penny. He gave all his money to this family. On the contrary, his three younger brothers and sisters who did nothing but eat, drink and have fun secretly saved more than ten dollars.
Yuanchun felt deeply that the original owner’s efforts were not worth it.
She sneaked into the house quietly, used her mental power to open the lock on Mr. and Mrs. Zhong's door, then went into the house and took all the money inside.
Even the money sewn into the cotton jacket was collected by her remotely.
