Yan Han’s eyes were filled with bitterness when she heard this. “Mother, Wanwan has said that she didn’t steal the money. How could you just ask us to pay for it? And ten times the amount? That’s a hundred yuan!”

Xia Wan sneered.

This old woman was indeed a good schemer. She had not received her father’s salary, so she was now vying to get it back.

She said he wanted ten times the compensation, but all she really did want was the money.

Discounting the fact that she didn’t steal the ten yuan, she now felt that even if Li Jin knew that the three of them didn’t steal it, she would still blame it on them.

To think that she could be so shameless at her age.

As the eldest child in the family, Xia Chen stood up and told Li Jin gravely, “Grandma, we didn’t steal your money. We swear it.”

Li Jin sneered, “Swear? If you didn’t steal my money, then where did you three get the money for beef noodles?

“Don’t tell me Xia hai gave it to you. I know my son well. He would never let you eat beef noodles.”

Hearing this, Xia Chen said, “I earned the money. I’ve been looking for a job, but I couldn’t find a permanent one, so I took some part-time ones. I helped the people on the dock move goods every day and calculated the money. It just so happened that I got paid today, so I invited my brother and sister to dinner.”

They couldn’t let Li Jin find out that Xia Wan was selling ginseng, or she would lose that large sum of money.

That was why Xia Chen chose to step forward and take the blame.

As an older brother, he felt that this was what he should do.

Xia Wan heard Xia Chen’s words and felt touched. Her brother was so thoughtful and warm.

There was a tacit understanding between the siblings. Xia Wan also knew that it was inappropriate for her to reveal too much of herself at this time.

To Xia Chen’s surprise, Li Jin became even angrier when she heard this. She looked at him with hatred. that’s great. “When I had money, I would give it to you. I would give you pocket money every month and even pay for your education. Now that you’re earning your own, you don’t even want to give it to me?

“I’ve never had beef noodles before, and you three went to have it yourselves?

“How did I, Li Jin, raise such an unfilial grandson?”

Xia Chen didn’t dare to say too much. He just kept silent and let Li Jin scold him.

He just wanted to gloss over this matter. As long as Li Jin believed that he earned the money and not they stole it, nothing else was important.

However, after Li Jin finished her scolding, she still didn’t believe him and insisted that the money had been stolen by the three of them.

Xia Wan had heard enough of Li Jin’s scolding and said coldly, “Didn’t grandma want to know who stole your money? You don’t know, but I do. I’ll take you there, and you’ll see who stole your money.”

Hearing Xia Wan’s words, Li Jin was stunned.

“You know who stole my money?” Li Jin asked subconsciously, feeling a little uneasy.

Xia Wan nodded and chuckled, but her smile was filled with ridicule, “Of course. It’s just a simple act. As long as it’s done, there will be traces. If you use your brain, there’s nothing you can’t find.”

As she spoke, Xia Wan walked out. She turned around and saw that Li Jin didn’t follow her. She deliberately provoked him, “What’s wrong? is grandma afraid to go?”

Li Jin made up her mind and followed Xia Wan out, shouting, “Fine, I’ll go. Do you think I’m afraid of you?”

Xia Ye and Xia He was one step behind, but they quickly followed suit.

On the way, Li Jin’s mouth was not idle. She asked Xia Wan, “You know who stole my money? How did you know?”

Xia Wan said she should’ve used her brain. What did that mean? Was she saying that she didn’t have a brain?

“Grandma, do you really want to know?” Xia Wan looked at Li Jin.

“Of course!” Li Jin snorted.

“Okay, then let me ask you. When you went to the hospital with Xia Yu’s family yesterday, did you bring all the money with you?”

“Of course. I was going to see Xia Yu. I had to bring enough,” Li Jin said.

In actual fact, she was worried that if she left the money at home, the others would steal it.
