251 Old man Wang Helps to take revenge

From the village where Liu Shi’s family was located in Nanhe Town, there was a short path that could be reached in less than four hours on a mule cart.

Old Wang expected to return in the afternoon. Unexpectedly, when he went to the mountain village, he happened to hear a few gossipy old women talking sourly at the Liu family’s door.

It was nothing more than Old Liu running to Old Wang’s house and working for half a month, but in the end, he did not obtain anything.

!!
“Other people also went out to do short-term jobs. Half a month of work is equivalent to 20 copper coins a day. That’s more than a hundred copper coins! But you guys ran over and didn’t get anything. Why do you have to do this?”

“That’s right. I heard that the Wang Family is extremely poor. You guys probably didn’t go to help them with the harvest but to secretly give them your own crops, right?”

“Old Aunt, a daughter who was married away, will be like water that has been poured out. In the future, you don’t have to care about her life or death. There are so many children in your family. If you care so much, won’t your two daughters-in-law gossip? Be careful that when you’re old in the future, your two daughters-in-law will be petty with you. If they don’t support you at that time, I think you won’t even have a place to cry!”

A few old women stood at the door, speaking one after another, making Qin Shi’s face turn green.

Qin Shi had a gentle personality. She usually did not argue with her neighbors. Even when they quarreled, she was gentle.

She never said anything in her heart, so there were also signs of depression in her heart. If not for the water Little Ah Yu had sent her, Qin Shi would probably not have survived until now.

On the other hand, her eldest daughter-in-law, Madam Yang, stood up and frowned. “Aunt Wu, Aunt Ma, if you’re really too free, there are still a few wastelands in the village that no one wants to farm now. Why don’t you take the hoe and rake the fields? Perhaps your family will have another piece of fertile land next year.”

The two aunties whose names were called had strange expressions on their faces. “Why would we farm the wasteland? Our family doesn’t lack food!”

“Our family doesn’t lack food either. We don’t have to worry about our sister-in-law’s food!” Madam Yang was still smiling. She supported Qin Shi with one hand and was about to close the door with the other.

The two women took a step back. “What do you mean?”

Madam Yang: “Oh, I’m about to close the door. After all, this is all a family matter. I don’t think you two aunts are rotten-mouthed, heartless, and disgusting dogs so you should understand these principles, right?”

She clearly said it especially sincerely, and those scolding words did not seem to be scolding them, but when they came out of her mouth, they felt that it was not the case.

A few of the gossipy women left resentfully, but they still felt that they could not swallow their anger, so they chattered on at the village entrance. In essence, they were saying that the Liu family had nothing better to do and ran to the house of an in-law to help.

In the end, not only did they end up with nothing, they even had to swallow their anger and pretend to be magnanimous.

“No wonder their youngest daughter ran away. She probably didn’t even make a sound when she was bullied to death!” Those people said righteously.

This angered Old man Wang, who had accidentally heard it. He simply drove the mule cart around the village.

When others asked, he pretended to be lost and could not find Old Liu. Then, he said, “I’m representing the Wang Family of Hu Family Village in Nanhe Town to send Old Liu a thank-you gift.”

Everyone craned their necks to see what was inside the mule cart.

Old Wang waved his hand. “It’s not anything valuable. It’s just some grain, seeds, pork, pheasants, and so on.”

Actually, Old Wang was still being conservative. There was still cloth, white flour, ten pairs of soles, and so on inside. The mule cart was filled to the brim.

In the past three years, Liu Shi had returned home the least and did not bring much back.

In the end, it was the Liu family who came to help this time. Old Madam Wang naturally would not mistreat them.

Even if she and Old Liu could not stand each other, this kind of etiquette would not be lacking.

Everyone in Xiashan Village was stunned. This was the first time they had seen someone use a mule cart to carry gifts.

Oh my god, how many gifts were in there to need to use a cart to transport?

However, Old Wang did not open it for them to see. After being pointed the way, he headed straight for the Liu family.

Qin Shi and the others were dumbfounded. After learning that Old Wang was the head of the Wang Family, they hurriedly invited him in.

They went to get someone to call Old Liu back.

Hence, Old man Wang, who had helped the Liu family vent their anger, was left behind.

Old Liu, who originally did not like Old man Wang very much, was a little awkward. He drank two glasses with Old man Wang at the dinner table and even insisted that he stay at their home for a few days.

Old man Wang naturally did not stay. He only sent the things over and told them that they could send the three children to town. Their Wang Family would pay for the children to attend school in town for a year.

In fact, if they were willing, they could even send the girls over.

In any case, the Wang Family’s current courtyard was still big enough to live in.

Unlike their hometown, where everyone lived in a very small space.

Old Wang thought that the Liu family would definitely be very happy and agree to this condition.

“In the end, they didn’t agree. Those children were interested, and Old Liu said that there’s no need for that for the time being.” After returning, Old man Wang told Old Madam Wang about what had happened there, and his expression was a little guilty. “Old woman, I couldn’t help but show off at that time. You won’t blame me, right?”

Old Madam Wang glanced at him. “You did very well.”

After receiving the praise, Old man Wang’s mouth was about to split open.

The Wang Family had to slowly rise up. It was a good thing to slowly pull in a few in-laws.

Otherwise, they might be a burden in the future.

As long as it was not particularly high-profile, it was fine.

Moreover, Old Madam Wang had not seen Old man Wang in such high spirits for a long time.

It was as if he had done something extraordinary.

He had only helped his in-laws stand out once.

As expected, when one was old, their pursuit became lower.

Ever since Little Ah Yu fainted once, Liu Shi had put aside her family’s matters slightly. Every day, she would follow Little Ah Yu out. When it was time to leave school, she would wait at the entrance of the private school.

In any case, she had to follow her closely.

Mrs. Yang simply said to Liu Shi, “Do you want to try teaching the children? I’ll give you 200 copper coins a month. If you don’t want to work anymore, you can stop.”

It was mainly because Mrs. Yang, who was originally infertile, had suddenly found out that she was pregnant. Mr. Yang and Mrs. Yang asked the doctor, and the doctor said that Mrs. Yang had recovered. She had once had difficulties giving birth. For some reason, this ailment had disappeared, so she naturally became pregnant.

The couple were naturally happy and afraid.

They were afraid that something would happen, so they did not dare to let her work too hard.

Usually, Mrs. Yang had to teach the children how to recognize items. Sometimes, she would also teach them how to plow the land and recognize plants. This was a class for young children.

At first, Liu Shi was still afraid since she had never taught a child.

Later on, she realized that Little Ah Yu was especially active in class and could draw inferences.

The joy of teaching was immediately stimulated.

Liu Shi discussed it with Old Madam Wang.

After that, she officially became a junior teacher of the Yang Family Private School.

The so-called junior was what people used to address Mrs. Yang.

Liu Shi had never studied before, so she only taught the children to recognize things.

This time, she had even more reason to pick up Little Ah Yu every day from school. Liu Shi’s worried heart also silently relaxed.

Time passed and in the blink of an eye, it was time for Murong Run to participate in the Flower Appreciation Feast.

He arrived at Wanning City half a month ago and bought two courtyards there. He also learned a little about the surrounding local customs before the Flower Appreciation Banquet began.

Murong Run thought that after he entered the Duke Yong Manor, he would definitely see the Empress. He did not expect to see someone he thought he would never see.
