No matter how much Wang Dashan shouted at home, it was of no avail.
In the end, he could only sit on the edge of the cave with a dark face and despair.
Wang Dashan couldn't help but wonder, had he put it in the wrong place?
He rummaged through the places where the silver might be kept, and even dug out a piece of it in the corner of the backyard, but he still couldn't find the familiar box.
Wang Dashan just kept sitting on the edge of the bed blankly, staring behind the oil lamp with divergent eyes.
It wasn't until the midday sun shone in and pierced Wang Dashan's eyes that he moved, opened his mouth and called out "Auntie" twice more.
But still didn't get any response.
Wang Dashan was in a trance for a while. Only he and his aunt knew where the things were hidden, and except for festivals and other events, his aunt would stay at her parents' house for at most an hour.
But she didn't come back yesterday, and she still hasn't come back at this hour today.
Wang Dashan couldn't sit still for a moment, because what was in that box was not only all his savings in the past few years, but also many treasures left by Mother Shen.
Now that he has lost his box, it is like he has lost his soul. Wang Dashan stumbled all the way to his aunt's natal home.
He followed the direction in his memory and found his home. The door was almost broken, but no one opened the door for him. There was no smoke at all in the house.
Or the neighbor got impatient because of the noise, opened the door and said sternly, "What are you doing to induce the soul? My family went out early in the morning."
Wang Dashan's eyes were red, and he wanted to step forward to ask where he had gone. When the neighbor saw Wang Dashan like this, he was so frightened that he quickly closed the door tightly.
Wang Dashan was rejected. When he returned home, he felt more and more that his aunt had taken away all the money.
Once the seed is planted in your heart, it will be planted deeply.
Wang Dashan just sat blankly in the yard from morning to night, his slightly yellow eyes already covered with bloodshot eyes.
My aunt Shanshan came back late, still carrying the things her mother's family gave her.
My aunt couldn't hide things. She had already made it clear to Shen Yue that she had given Wang Dashan five hundred taels of silver.
When the mother-in-law's family heard that they were now rich, their compliments made her confused as to what she would agree to.
Today, the family went to town to do some shopping and bought several sets of clothes on credit. Maybe the Zhenxi Embroidery Shop also heard the news. They didn't have enough money on them, so they could buy on credit.
The aunt was in an extremely comfortable mood, dressed beautifully, and returned to the Shen family with Shen Jiabao in her arms.
As soon as he entered the door, he saw Wang Dashan sitting blankly in the courtyard, looking like he had lost his soul.
My aunt had just wanted to talk about buying clothes, but seeing his appearance, she didn't dare to say anything now.
She slowly came to Wang Dashan and touched him gently.
Wang Dashan came back to his senses and glared at her with his bloodshot eyes, as if he wanted to eat her alive. The frightened aunt quickly lowered her head to avoid his gaze.
After a long while, Wang Dashan slowly withdrew his gaze, turned his head, and looked at the sky in the distance without saying a word.
The aunt was very worried, for fear of angering him. She did spend a lot of money today, but wasn't it because they had money now?
Isn’t this all small money?
But she was also very confused as to what happened to Wang Dashan and why he seemed a little distracted.
She tentatively called out twice, "Dashan?"
Didn't get a reply.
"Mountain?"
Still no response.
"Mountain..."
"Um."
After hearing her shout twice more, Wang Dashan finally responded.
"Da Shan, what happened to you?"
Wang Dashan turned his head and looked at her after hearing this, with anger and hatred in his eyes, "What's wrong with me? Don't you know yet?"
This bitch has the nerve to come back! She spends her family's money without saying a word, scaring others to the point of going crazy!
"Da Shan...aren't we rich? I will spend a little money to buy Jiabao and you an outfit, so that we can meet when we go out." When my aunt heard this, she felt a little panicked and hurriedly explained.
Wang Dashan's eyes turned cold, "You call this small money? Didn't I tell you that you can use the money in good ways, but you must not touch Shen Rui's things!"
"Not only did you take away all the money, you even dared to touch her things. Did you turn a deaf ear to my words?" Wang Dashan roared angrily, with a strong murderous intent in his voice.
These words completely shocked my aunt.
Shen Jiabao was also frightened by his father's voice and cried.
The aunt patted Shen Jiabao and kept shaking her head, "What are you talking about? I just bought some clothes, how could I touch the things at home?"
As she said this, her hands couldn't help but tremble, "Dashan, don't accuse me so randomly. When did I touch her things?"
"You still dare to quibble! Look what this is!" Wang Dashan pushed his aunt down, ignored Shen Jiabao's cry, grabbed his aunt's hair and threw her against the wall next to the oil lamp.
Then he took down the oil lamp and pulled away the bricks, revealing an empty space inside.
The aunt's face changed as she looked at the entrance of the cave where all her wealth was hidden. She looked at Wang Dashan in disbelief, "Da Shan, what's going on?"
"You still don't admit it!" Wang Dashan looked at her angrily.
"Tell me, did you take away the five hundred taels given by Shen Yue?"
"I don't understand what you are talking about! You were the one who put the money away when I left!"
The aunt didn't believe it, so she carefully checked the hole behind the oil lamp, and the fear in her heart became even stronger.
"Da Shan, are you doubting me?" my aunt asked with a trembling voice.
"It's not that I doubt you, but you have done such a stupid thing. How can I trust you again in the future? Take out the things quickly!" Wang Dashan became angry when he thought that the money was taken away by this bitch. Got liver pain.
"Da Shan, I...I really didn't take away those banknotes from Shen Yue. You have to believe me, I didn't touch a penny." Auntie was stunned, and for a moment, a bold idea suddenly appeared in her heart.
Her head exploded with a bang, and she looked at Wang Dashan in disbelief.
He couldn't just want to keep the money for himself, so he made up such a pretense to wrongly accuse her!
Wang Dashan snorted coldly, "Only you and I know where the things are hidden at home! Who else could it be but you?"
The aunt's body was shaking violently, "I think you want to keep the money all to yourself! It was obviously you who was putting away the money when I left!"
"You vicious woman!" Wang Dashan angrily stretched out his hand to pinch his aunt's neck and shook her hard.
The aunt struggled, but she couldn't resist the man's strength.
Wang Dashan's nails dug deeply into his aunt's skin.
"Let me go, let me go, cough cough cough..."
The aunt kept struggling, trying to escape from Wang Dashan's clutches, but her strength was too weak and there was nothing she could do.
The aunt was choked so hard that she couldn't breathe, tears flowed down, and her cheeks turned red.
The aunt thought she was really going to die, when there was a fierce knock on the door.
Wang Dashan spat and let go of his hand. His aunt immediately collapsed on the ground, panting heavily.
"I'll take care of you when I come back later!" Wang Dashan said viciously, and he seemed to be ready to come back and strangle his aunt to death.
Seeing him like this, my aunt became even more frightened.
When Wang Dashan opened the door, he saw officers and soldiers from the town.
Facing the officers and soldiers' pursuit of responsibility, he was dumbfounded.
Immediately afterwards, people from Zhenxi Embroidery Square came to collect debts. For a while, the Shen family was in chaos.
