Transmigration: Getting Rich with My Space and Supplies novel Chapter 151

Chapter 151: Chapter 147: Why is it?

Old Man Qin’s gaze was heavy, "Yes, a rather substantial small wooden box, which was given to your father in his day. Since you no longer wish to recognize our Qin Family as relatives, then return this wooden box to us."

Old Lady Wang’s eyes turned green when she heard this, because since marrying into the Qin Family, she had never heard the old man mention this matter.

Had she known about it earlier, how could she possibly not have taken this troublesome wooden box back?

She didn’t know what was inside, but judging from her nearly half a lifetime of experience with the old man, anything that occupied his thoughts was bound to be valuable.

So she immediately interjected, "Right, since you don’t want to acknowledge our Qin Family anymore, then hurry up and hand over the things that belong to our Qin Family back to us."

Qin Ye finally understood what they were after when he heard them say this.

"There isn’t any. When my father didn’t have money to treat my mother’s illness, he sold it along with the wooden box, and furthermore..."

His gaze was particularly cold, "My father told me that it was left to him by my grandmother, and it was part of her dowry. It has nothing to do with you."

Old Man Qin almost fainted when he heard it had been sold.

His tone was both urgent and heavy, "It couldn’t possibly have been sold, and besides, it wasn’t your grandmother’s, it was our Qin Family’s. If you don’t produce that wooden box, then our families can’t break off relations."

"That’s right, your grandmother’s... what proof do you have that it belonged to that person? Besides, after marrying into the Qin Family, shouldn’t the property belong to the Qin Family? Hurry up and hand over what belongs to our Qin Family, and you’re not allowed to monopolize it."

Judging by the old man’s anxious appearance, that wooden box must be something precious.

Just thinking about it made her eyes burn with desire to search it herself.

Qin Ye’s expression was very ugly, and his gaze was full of hostility.

Old Lady Wang was intimidated by his look, but under the allure of the unknown treasure, the intimidation of his gaze seemed less daunting.

She stood straight up, "What are you staring at? Did I say something wrong? Even if it was sold, it shouldn’t be enjoyed by just your family alone. That belongs to our Qin Family, and you need to compensate us."

Madam Rong could not stand to look at this behavior.

Hearing everything that had happened until now, she finally understood what these two were demanding.

Seeing how shameless the old woman was acting, she could not help laughing coldly, "I’ve certainly gained some wisdom today; I’ve never heard that dowry must be given to the husband’s family. Even if you trace back eighteen generations, you wouldn’t find such a practice. So now there’s a special exception in your family?"

"And what business is it of yours, a step-relative, with someone else’s dowry? This is truly putting profit ahead of losing all decency."

"Should we go to the village and let the people there judge? Should the belongings of a biological mother and grandmother not be kept for her own son and grandson but for a step-relative instead?"

Old Lady Wang’s old face turned red from being so harshly scolded.

She struggled for a long time to squeeze out a response: "...That’s the rule in our family."

Madam Rong’s fighting spirit was certainly not inferior to anyone, especially since these two were clearly bullying her son-in-law.

How could she allow that?

"Get out of here! You, a step-relative, dare to covet the belongings of the rightful wife. You have thicker skin than a city wall; even if you are shameless, you don’t deserve to take it."
