Raising My Children With My Personal Spatial Ability Novel - Chapter 178
Chapter 178: The Money Is Gone
“Ministry Councilor He, please wait. We won’t sell the child anymore. We’ll return the money to you. Please wait. I’ll find the money for you now.”
With that, he went straight to the kitchen and brought out a basin of water.
It was impossible for him to find the money by himself now. Gritting his teeth, he splashed the basin of water on Aunt Wang, who was lying on the bed.
“Ah, ah, ah!”
Aunt Wang jolted awake by the splash. She jumped up from the bed with her face drenched and panted heavily.
However, her waist was hurting after Qian Jiyun kicked her and could not withstand the sudden movement. She immediately screamed like a pig being slaughtered.
“Stop crying!”
Old An could not take it anymore. He threw the basin aside and slapped her again.
“Where’s the money? Hurry up and take it out.”
“What money?”
…
Aunt Wang asked in a daze. She did not know what she was doing—she only knew that she was in pain.
“What other money?”
Old An shouted at Madam Wang. Are you trying to play dumb with me?
“Ministry Councilor He’s money! Take out the 50 taels of silver. Do you want to see them take Heizhuang away?”
“The money. Right, the money.”
Aunt Wang dared not count on An Jiuyue’s son anymore. She could only hand over the money first.
However, after gritting her teeth and getting out of the bed to search the place where she had kept the money several times, she could not even find a tael of silver. The 50 taels of silver were gone.
“The money is gone.”
She was so frightened that her face paled. Without the money, Ministry Councilor He would take her grandson away.
“How can the money be gone?!”
Old An questioned with a livid expression.
Only this woman knows where the money is. Is she unwilling to hand over the money?
“You b*tch, they’re about to take Heizhuang away now, but you’re still unwilling to part with the money. I’ll beat you to death!”
He began hitting her as he spoke. However, no matter how much he hit her, the money was gone. It was impossible for another 50 taels of silver to drop from the sky.
Soon after, Aunt Wang, who had been beaten black and blue, walked out of the room with Old An.
“Ministry Councilor He, can you give us a few more days? We’ll definitely find the money and send it to your house. Please don’t take Heizhuang away.”
Old An trembled as he looked at Ministry Councilor He. His voice was extremely low.
I wouldn’t have given the 50 taels of silver to this woman to hide if I knew it would go missing. Wouldn’t it be better to keep it with me?
Ministry Councilor He knew the money was missing when he heard his words.
He was smart and could figure out what was going on. Old An’s family had schemed against An Jiuyue and she could have returned the favor.
He guessed that the money was probably already with An Jiuyue. They would not be able to get it back.
“Let’s go.”
He instructed his servants and thugs before turning to leave.
His servant saw that Ministry Councilor He did not receive the money and naturally did not put Heizhuang down. He carried the crying child and followed him.
“No, you can’t take my grandson away! He’s my grandson!”
Aunt Wang cried and yelled when she saw that they were taking her grandson away. She rushed forward, wanting to stop Ministry Councilor He and his people.
