Chapter 79

"That's right, old woman, where do you think that girl got so much money?" Old man Zhang's eyes were shining like stars, as if a pile of silver was flying in front of him.

Mrs. Wang hated Shutong to death, rolled her eyes, "Then how would I know? Maybe that damn girl was kidnapped and snatched from outside."

"Steal it?"

Old man Zhang's heart skipped a beat. Thinking about how generous his granddaughter is, it's really possible!

Hastily said: "Then if the government is recruited, our family will also eat melons."

Wang's face was gloomy, "What nonsense are you talking about?"

Mrs. Zhu was also anxious, "Mother! What Dad said makes sense. That little bitch is considered to be a family with us. If she commits a crime outside, maybe it will really hurt our family."

The more Mrs. Zhu thought about it, the more frightened she became, "The little bitch seems to be fearless. She can even do such things as beating and scolding her elders. She may really go to steal money! If the government investigates, she will pat her ass." Run away, what will we do as a family!"

Wang was upset and said angrily, "Don't I know this?"

Old man Zhang was also afraid, "Old woman, what can I do! That girl's money can't be really stolen!"

The more Wang listened, the more annoyed she became, "It's alright, alright, shut up, who knows where the money came from?"

While talking, Mao brought her daughter Zhang Dahua back from washing clothes by the river.

Seeing her mother-in-law standing in the middle of the courtyard with an unfriendly expression, Mao thought her mother-in-law blamed her for coming back late, so she yelled in her heart, "Mother!"

Mrs. Wang hated the submissive look of this daughter-in-law the most, snorted through her nose, turned and went back to her room. .

Zhu Shi smiled and stepped forward to help hang the clothes together, "Second sister-in-law, why is it so late today?"

Mao was a little flustered, and said quickly, "Today there are many people by the river, so I waited for a while before finding the place."

Hanging the clothes in a panic, "Dahua, go to the kitchen and boil the hot water first, and get ready to cook!"

Zhang Dahua reluctantly dropped the wooden basin, and went slowly to the kitchen.

The previous kitchen was burnt down by Shutong, this kitchen was just built, and it was made short to save money, and it was hot and stuffy to cook in it, so she didn't want to go there!
Zhu said with a smile: "Second sister-in-law, my girl has already boiled hot water, and Dahua has worked hard for a long time, let the child go back and rest!"

Zhang Dahua laughed and said, "The third aunt still hurts! Mom, I'll go find my little aunt first!" Turning around, she went into Jiaoni's room.

"Oh! This child!" Mao complained, "It's getting late, it's time to make lunch."

"Second sister-in-law! If you have time, I'll help you later!" Mrs. Zhu helped hang the clothes.

Mao's expression was grateful, "Third brother and sister! Thank you, I will help you tomorrow!"

The three daughters-in-law of the Zhang family agreed that each of them would take turns doing housework, cooking and laundry, feeding pigs and chickens, and cleaning.

In fact, it was said that it took turns to work, and when it was Dafang's turn, Mrs. Ma either had a headache or a pain in her buttocks. She played all kinds of tricks and was lazy, and in the end she let Mrs. Mao do all her work.

When it was Sanfang's turn, Mrs. Zhu would make excuses, but they could talk, and the three of them, the mother and daughter, had to do embroidery work, and they even pulled Erfang Zhang Dahua to do the work together, and occasionally sold three or five copper coins.

Because Mao didn't have a son, he lacked self-confidence, and the third younger brother and sister even taught her daughter how to embroider, so they consciously took on the work of the third house. After all, Mao did almost all the housework alone.

Now that Mrs. Zhu is so obedient, Mrs. Mao is still grateful to her!
Mrs. Zhu smiled, "We're all a family, why should we be divided between you and me? Second sister-in-law, don't be polite to me."

Ever since Shutong came back, the whole family has turned into shrunken quails, not going out for leisure.

Today's news is because Mrs. Zhu listened to the gossip of neighbors in the vegetable garden behind.

Pulling Mao, he asked, "Second sister-in-law, what news did you hear by the river?"

Mao was taken aback, wondering if he should tell what he heard?

Mrs. Zhu knew that Mrs. Mao was afraid of getting into trouble, so she picked up the topic and said, "I've heard people say that that little bastard Zhang Xiaoyue took out 1000 taels of silver to repair her parents' graves. The second sister-in-law didn't hear that?"

Mao's heart relaxed, and he quickly followed her words, "I also heard it when I was washing clothes by the river. Third brother and sister, you said that Xiaoyue really has so much money. They must not be talking nonsense."

Zhu's eyes flashed, "Since the whole village has spread the word, it should not be fake. Besides, this matter has been handed over to the clan, and the remaining money will be used to build the ancestral hall. If it is fake, the clan leader and Li Zheng can spare her!"

Upon hearing this, Mao nodded thoughtfully.

"It seems that Xiaoyue has made a lot of money outside, and he can actually give out so much money, 1000 taels. I thought I heard it wrong. I have never even heard of it in my life."

Zhu sneered, "Could it be that the second sister-in-law is not tempted, this is not a small sum."

Mrs. Mao shook her head again and again, "The third brother and sister are joking, this is their money, what does it have to do with us?"

"Why doesn't it matter? That Zhang Xiaoyue is the girl in our house. She has no parents, so her money should belong to us." Zhu continued to bewitch.

Thinking of her husband who was still lying on the kang, Mao's face turned pale, and he shook his head, "Forget it, forget it, it's better not to provoke him."

"The pillars of the family have all been injured, I don't want my man to be beaten again!" Thinking of Shutong's violence, Mao felt lingering fear.

"Third siblings! Don't you feel sorry for Third Uncle?"

Her own man hurts herself, how could Mrs. Zhu not feel sorry for her injured husband, but the more she is like this, the more she wants revenge!

"Second sister-in-law! How can I not feel bad? Seeing the child's father look like that, I wish I could suffer for him. I can't eat well, I can't sleep soundly, my heart feels like fried."

Mao nodded with deep sympathy and sighed: "Third siblings, what you said speaks to my heart. The child's father is the pillar of the family. It doesn't matter if we women are wronged a little, he can't be hurt anymore."

"Let me tell you, let's hide from that end in the future!"

Mrs. Zhu glared at her bitterly.He said angrily: "That damn girl has bullied us, where do you think you want to hide? Could it be that you hide in a mouse hole?"

Mrs. Zhu said with a ferocious face: "If you are afraid, you can hide, but I am going to vent my anger!"

Someone came out from behind, "Third siblings! Why are you so angry!"

The two turned their heads and saw their sister-in-law Ma Shi.

Zhu's eyes widened with a smile and said, "So it's my sister-in-law! I don't believe you haven't heard the rumors in the village these two days."

Ma Shi snorted with a half-smile, "What rumor? Could it be that the little bitch wanted to repair her parents' graves? Hmph, why bother when everyone is dead?"

Mao was a little afraid of this sister-in-law. She had the ability to give birth to three sons in one go, which was much better than herself.

Mrs. Zhu wanted to get someone to stand out, so she sneered, "Didn't my sister-in-law hear about the fact that that damn girl wanted to give out 1000 taels of silver!"
