A teenage girl was forced to beg after dropping her 200 yuan (approximately $29) allowance, with the older woman who picked it up claiming that it was hers.

The incident reportedly occurred on the street in Guangzhou in southern China’s Guangdong province over the weekend.

A video of the incident, filmed by a male passerby, shows two teenage girls confronting the woman.

Whoever picks up the money should own it,” the woman says, according to South China Morning Post, citing the news outlet Xiaoran Video.

After the woman refuses to return the money, the student gets down on her knees and tearfully begs for her allowance, which she later explained was her entire week's allowance.

It is so wrong for this old woman not to return the money,” the man filming the interaction can be heard saying.
