The two fishes were large ones. One of them was a gra.s.s carp, about three kilograms in weight.

In these times, a gra.s.s carp that big was pretty good.

The other was an ordinary bighead carp.

Gu Qingyao liked soup, and the gra.s.s carp and bighead carp were suitable for making fish soup, so Mo Beihan had specially chosen these two fish.

The bighead carp was about six kilograms in weight. Everyone who saw it turned green with envy. This was meat!

So many kilograms of meat!

It was the first day of the new year and judging from Mo Beihan's appearance, everyone guessed that he was going to pay a new year visit. But they did not know if he was visiting his uncle or the Gu family.

Many people guessed that Mo Beihan was going to the Gu house. Because the Mo family had added so many children lately, Mo Beihan had been even more attentive to the Gu family. Everyone understood. So they guessed that he must be visiting the Gu family during the new year.

Mo Beihan was walking along when a woman suddenly rushed out. She was screaming and crying for help. She screamed as she ran and dodged.

A man was chasing her and beating her.

The woman happened to run in front of Mo Beihan, and the man caught her. He grabbed her hair and started to beat her viciously.

Qin Yufeng was crying. She huddled in the corner of a wall and pleaded for mercy. But the eldest Sun was not moved. He continued to punch and kick her.

“It's all your fault! It's all your fault! Tell me… where have you hidden our food? Tell me… tell me…”

The eldest Sun beat Qin Yufeng as if he had gone berserk.

The treasure buried at Qin Yufeng's parents' home was his last hope and his security.

He had even split from his two younger brothers and agreed to support the two old folks in order to enjoy his riches by himself and have a better future. When they split, he had given many things to his two younger brothers.

But now, the treasure was gone. How would he survive?

Over the past few days, he and Qin Yufeng had been fighting continually. Yesterday, they had not had anything nice to celebrate the new year and they had another quarrel. Today, they had an even worse argument, so they began to fight.

Qin Yufeng felt really wronged. She really didn't know why the things she had hidden had all disappeared.

Her family did not know about it because she had hidden it secretly. They could not possibly have dug it up.

She had asked her family, and it seemed that they did not know there was anything hidden in the backyard. How would she know why the things had disappeared?

Also, the things that the Old Master and Old Madam had hidden had also disappeared.

The Old Madam had a box she kept by her side, and she intended to go to town the next day to barter for things. But when she woke before dawn the next day, she realized that it had disappeared.

She went to dig in her backyard under the cover for darkness and discovered that everything was gone!

How could he blame her for this?

“Wu wu wu, I don't know, I really don't know. I didn't take it, I didn't take it! Don't… don't beat me…”

“b.i.t.c.h, if it wasn't you, who could it be? It must be your family who took it, or why would it suddenly disappear? Our family depends on this food to live! But you dare to hide it. Tell me, where are the things?”

The eldest Sun still retained some sense and did not refer to the things as treasure in public. Or the situation would become more serious.

Qin Yufeng's face was all bruised and swollen. She wept bitterly. “I didn't, I really didn't. My children are all living with us, why would I hide the food? Do I not want them to have a good life?”
