Quick Transmigration: The Cannon Fodder's Mother is a God-Level Boss

Chapter 173 My Mom Transformed into a Real Rich Man After Her Divorce in the 9s (Part 12)

"The sky has fallen! God, I told you your business was unreliable! What are we going to do now? You've quit your job, and I have no income. Are we going to starve from today onwards?"

Liu Shufen was crying and yelling at home, which annoyed Wang Fangzhi so much that he frowned.

"Okay, Mom, stop making a fuss. It's already like this. Aren't I the one who's suffering the most?"

Wang Fangzhi said helplessly.

“There are more than two hundred of my retirement savings in there. I’ve saved up all my life and only have a little money left. If I give it all to you and someone else cheats me out of it, how am I supposed to live?”

Liu Shufen collapsed to the ground, crying with snot running down her face, which disgusted Wang Fangzhi.

"Alright, I'll give you two hundred yuan back first. Stop crying, it's getting on my nerves."

Wang Fangzhi impatiently tossed two hundred yuan over.

Upon seeing the money, Liu Shufen stopped making a fuss and even stopped crying; her change of expression was remarkably swift.

"Hehe, son, I still need to buy groceries and stuff, so please be understanding."

Liu Shufen tucked the money into her pocket and gave Wang Fangzhi a few awkward laughs.

Wang Fangzhi pursed his lips, then, remembering his own arrangements, continued speaking.

"Mom, I have something more important for you to do."

Liu Shufen was still immersed in the excitement of getting her things back when she heard Wang Fangzhi's words and casually asked him about it.

"what's up?"

"It's still about that girl Wang Qianmo. You must find a way to lure her home these next few days."

"What? You've got your eye on that girl again? Didn't you give up on her?"

Liu Shufen asked in surprise.

“That was before. I’m short of money now. That kid Ma Qiang has raised the bride price to two thousand yuan. He can use that as leverage to ask Si Yan for money after the deal is done.”

Wang Fangzhi frowned when he thought of that girl, Wang Qianmo.

The plan was arranged, but that girl was not easy to fool.

“Son, how about I go to their school and cause a scene? I’ll lure her out of the school first, and you can find a van to pick me up.”

Liu Shufen patted her thigh lightly, as if she had come up with a brilliant idea.

"Okay, Mom, you're the best. Your son is counting on you."

Wang Fangzhi was unusually friendly. He thought that once he got the money, he would move to a different place and wouldn't be able to find him, no matter how rich the Si family was.

"Son, by the way, do you think we could extort another sum of money from Si Yan later?"

Liu Shufen suddenly thought of the kidnapping scenes on TV shows. She thought that since the Si family was so rich, wouldn't it be enough to just let a little bit slip through their fingers?

"No, Mom thinks you're acting in a movie. If you ask for money directly, you'll be arrested by the police before you even leave Taipei. This is different from accepting a bride price to marry off a daughter. This is just a family dispute at most, and it's not illegal."

Wang Fangzhi said in a deep voice.

"But how is this not illegal? Wang Qianmo didn't do it voluntarily, did she?"

Liu Shufen asked, puzzled.

“Who says she didn’t do it willingly? Once she’s hooked, we’ll drug her and the whole neighborhood will know. I’d like to see who that girl will marry if not Ma Qiang.”

Wang Fangzhi spoke with malice, which made Liu Shufen shudder.

"Okay, okay, okay, I'll do as you say. Let's do it tomorrow. I'll go first thing tomorrow morning."

Liu Shufen readily agreed.

But just as they finished talking, there was a knock on the door.

"Who is it?"

When Liu Shufen opened the door, her face immediately darkened.

"You vixen, what brings you here again?"

After Liu Shufen finished speaking, she looked around at Li Erniang and then spoke again.

"Where is my grandson, Wang Yang? Why didn't you bring him?"

But Li Erniang completely ignored Liu Shufen and pushed her away.

"Get out of my way. I'm here to settle scores with Wang Fangzhi. I advise you not to mess with me."

"Hey, you woman, you're too domineering. My son must have been bewitched to fall for you back then."

Liu Shufen scolded Li Erniang a few times as she swaggered into the house, but Li Erniang had no interest in arguing with her.

Because all she can think about now is that her money is going to go down the drain.

"Wang Fangzhi, come out here."

Once inside, Li Erniang began searching each room. Knowing he couldn't escape, Wang Fangzhi cursed his bad luck and walked out.

"Second Aunt, what brings you here?"

Wang Fangzhi asked with a grin.

"Why did I come? Were you planning to run away if I hadn't come?"

Li Erniang was furious and spoke to Wang Fangzhi in a sarcastic tone.

"Of course not, I would never shortchange you, no matter who I owe money to."

As he spoke, Wang Fangzhi stepped forward and embraced Li Erniang.

"Get out of here! I heard you got scammed? Where's my money? I don't want you to double it, just give me my money back right now."

Li Erniang pushed Wang Fangzhi away impatiently, stretching out her hand as if asking for money.

Wang Fangzhi's expression turned ugly for a moment, but he quickly recovered.

"Second Aunt, I was cheated, but I still have ways to make money."

"What method?"

Li Erniang asked calmly.

"It's that girl Wang Qianmo, you know. As long as I marry her off, I can get two thousand yuan in betrothal gifts. Then you'll easily get your two hundred yuan, right?"

Wang Fangzhi approached Li Erniang and said in a flattering tone.

"That girl isn't stupid; do you think she'll let you manipulate her like that?"

Li Erniang looked puzzled.

"I still need your help, you smart person. Don't worry, you can have all of mine."

Li Erniang's expression visibly relaxed upon hearing Wang Fangzhi's words.

"Okay, I agree, but you have to keep your promise."

"Okay, okay, I swear, I'll give you all the money then, okay?"

Hearing Wang Fangzhi's assurance, Li Erniang finally smiled.

But they didn't know that Si Yan had given one of the lucky charms she redeemed at the interdimensional market to Si Shichang and another to Wang Qianmo.

Therefore, their ideas were destined to be unrealizable.

Meanwhile, Si Yan and her daughter were already celebrating with champagne.

"Mom, why are you so happy today? Did our people succeed with Wang Qianmo?"

Jiang Manxiang asked excitedly.

"of course not."

"Oh, then why are you so happy?"

Jiang Manxiang pouted in annoyance.

"Today is the last day of the year. Next year, all our wishes will come true. Isn't it worth celebrating?"

Si Yan smiled and poured herself a glass of champagne.

"Mom, can making a wish really come true? You're getting more and more abstract."

Jiang Manxiang looked at her mother with a helpless expression. What kind of time is this to be in the mood for opening champagne?

"Manxiang, don't you just want to see Wang Qianmo suffer? I heard her father was swindled out of all his money. Her father is a money-grubber. Don't worry, it won't be long before your wish comes true."

"Really? That's wonderful! If you ask me, it's her own bad luck to have a father like that."

Jiang Manxiang chuckled and sat down with a sense of relief.

Si Yan and her daughter celebrated the New Year at home, while Si Yan and her daughter were also celebrating at the Si family's old house, but their atmosphere was much warmer.

"Mom, these fireworks are really pretty, you should try them."

Wang Qianmo handed Si Yan a small sparkler, which Si Yan happily accepted.

Si Shichang stood to the side, watching the two with a smile on his face.

The sky above the manor was ablaze with starlight, and Si Yan and her daughter were overjoyed from the inside out.

Wang Qianmo smiled at Si Yan, then turned and shouted at the sky:

Next year will definitely be better!
