“I’m warning you two. Don’t go overboard. Go back home to eat if you all want to eat. Don’t look for such stupid excuses. Do you think everyone is a fool? I’m shouting for help if you all step any closer to me. Everyone is relying on labor to make a living now and every family does not close their doors when asleep. People like you who snatch others’ things in the bright daylight are simply abominable. The ones who should be punished and educated should be you two.”
“Shut up. We did not!” Wang Li shouted out of fear.
Majority of the people in this generation were very pure. When they picked up an item from the ground, they had to wait at the spot for the owner to return. It was not an exaggeration to say that people did not close their doors when they were asleep.
Robbery was an extremely serious crime and deemed shameless by all.
Sun Mei narrowed her eyes. She really disliked this tough Gu Qingyao.
“Gu Qingyao, we did not want to snatch your things. We just want to help you deliver it. We only want to help. Do you know what help is?
“Furthermore, your family is a landlord class. I’m very curious as to where your family got so many things to gift others? Could it be that your house was not looted completely? Your family still have private possessions? If this is made known to… those people, they would come and inspect.”
Gu Qingyao curled up. This Sun Mei was much more scheming than Wang Li who had a short fuse.
If it was the past her, she would definitely be frightened by this move. Moreover, Gu Qingyao knew that the Sun family was really capable of such matters.
But now…
Gu Qingyao smirked coldly.
“These food items in my hands were given to me when Brother Beihan left. I am his fiancée. He is not home frequently and of course he would remind me to take care of the Mo family.
“Auntie Jiang is not in good health and her two children are still young and need to be taken care of by others. He was so hurried to get engaged to me as he hopes that I can take care of the Mo family with a proper and justified title.
“Brother Beihan is doing extremely well in his work and can afford to bring out these items. As for the Gu family…”
The smile in Gu Qingyao’s eyes deepened. “When my house was looted, everyone was at the scene. Everyone witnessed that everything in our house was gone. Wasn’t the Sun family at the front then?
“All these years, my grandparents have been looking after cows and sheep in the cowshed while my father has been working in the brigade very diligently to earn work points. My father and grandfather even looked for herbs in the mountains to help everyone treat their sickness. Everyone witnessed this.
“The children of the Gu family are all raised by their parents and brothers who are laboring outside. There are not many people from the old family but all of them can work.
“In contrast, those families who don’t have sufficient work points each year and even owe the brigade, they only eat and are lazy. The amount of food that they are allocated is clearly insufficient but all of them are so chubby. That family has so many children and all of them are raised alive. Don’t you think we should check where their food came from?
“Do they… have some private possessions?”
“You…”
Sun Mei’s expression changed drastically and she turned pale out of horror.
Wang Li was taken aback as well and her eyes flickered when she noticed Sun Mei’s pale complexion.
Gu Qingyao snickered and shot Sun Mei a meaningful look before walking away.
Before she left, she even smiled at Sun Mei which caused an icy air to linger around her!
Sun Mei’s body stiffened and remained rooted to the ground for some time.
Wang Li pulled her and said, “Sister Sun Mei… which family do you think she is talking about? Do they… really have private possessions of treasures?”
