Although she didn't know where Master Wang was staying, she knew that he lived in the deep mountains and forests. She thought that since she had agreed to his request, he should have let down his guard and was waiting to meet her at her doorstep tomorrow.

In the past two days, Wen Meijiu paid attention to the village and didn't find that he had planted any spies in the village, so he had no way of knowing the time when Wen Meijiu and the others would set out. By the time he realized something was wrong, Wen Meijiu had already gone far away with his family. Even if he wanted to chase them, he didn't know which way to take.

Just thinking about it made Wen Meijiu's heart bubble with joy.

What a scumbag! He actually took a piece of jade and tried to bribe her brother to speak well of him. This is trying to alienate the relationship between the siblings.

Wen Meijiu must make him pay the price for destroying the unity of their family. She is not going to return the valuable jade pendant to him, making him lose both his wife and his army.

"Have you packed all your things, mom?"

Wen Meijiu stood in the yard, shouting at his mother who was packing things in the house.

At first, my mother only packed some necessities, because if she took too many things on the road, there would be no room left.

If my dad uses one car alone, and there are too many things in it, there will be less space for him.

Although they are necessities, a pot, a bellows, a few quilts, small pots and pans, a large jug for water, and fodder for the horses, take up more than half of the cart, leaving very little space for people, who can only sit and cannot lie down, and it is still very tiring to travel.

After returning from the temple, Wen Meijiu looked at the large water jar placed in the corner of the yard and asked his mother if she had forgotten about it.

Mother waved her hand regretfully and said:

"No, there won't be room for it if you put it on again."

There was still half a tank of water in the big water tank. My mother had fetched it from the foot of a distant mountain. Besides, it was a drought now and there was a water shortage, so we couldn't abandon the water tank no matter what.

If we encounter a water source on the road, we will need this big guy to store more water.

"No, you have to take this with you."

"There'll be no room if you take it with you, my big girl."

Before my mother finished her words, she saw that the water jar in the corner was gone. My mother was so surprised that she almost fainted. She rubbed her eyes hard and stammered to the warm wine:

"Beautiful, beautiful wine. Did you see a big water tank here just now?"

This feels so unreal. I can't believe that the water tank just disappeared out of thin air. There is clearly a fresh mark of the water tank left on the ground.

"Shh, keep your voice down, mom."

Wen Meijiu put his index finger on his lips and made a gesture to his mother to ask her to be quiet.

"Mom, why are you making such a fuss? Didn't I perform this for you and my dad a long time ago?"

After her reminder, my mother finally remembered that part and her mouth opened even wider.

She lowered her voice and said anxiously:

"Isn't that a sleight of hand?"

Wen Meijiu breathed a sigh of relief. Some things were bound to be difficult for people to accept. She should just take it slow to avoid making things worse like last time, which made her father worry about her.

"Well, if you think it's a trick, then it's a trick. Anyway, I can hide a lot of things and take them out when I need them.

Mom, this secret is only known to us and Dad, please don’t tell anyone else.”

Wen Meijiu knew that his mother would not tell anyone, but he still couldn't help but remind her. His mother listened very carefully and nodded vigorously.

After a while, my mother finally recovered and pointed at the large items that had been loaded on the carriage and asked Wen Meijiu:

"Girl, can you hide these things too?"

Wen Meijiu looked at the things that were already tied to the carriage and whispered to his mother:

“It’s better to put these things in the car. If I hide them all, wouldn’t it be exposed that I can hide things?

Don't worry, Mom. I guarantee that there will be a place for my brothers and sisters to sleep at night. I have some good things for sleeping, and I'll show them to you when the time comes."

Mother's eyes blinked again and again, like a curious little girl who discovered a new world.

After thinking for a while, my mother suddenly ran into the house and threw a message to Wen Meijiu:

"Then I must take all my things with me. My broken house is worth a fortune."

At this time, my mother was packing things in the house, including a broken jar of pickled vegetables in the corner.

"Okay, okay, everything is packed!"

Hearing Wen Meijiu's urging, her mother quickly agreed to her request.

The father lying next to my mother didn't know what had happened. When he heard his wife say that she was done, he suddenly asked my mother:

"Well, how about you go and ask where the two carriages with the remaining wine have gone?"

Mother pretended to be surprised and turned to Dad and said:

"Why didn't you say so earlier?

We are leaving tomorrow morning, and you are just saying this now. Even if we have the ability to get the wine back, how can such a short time be enough? "

The reason why my mother reacted like this was entirely because my aunt and grandmother bullied them in the threshing ground. If my daughter hadn't stood in front of her, who knows how the old lady would have humiliated her in front of everyone.

Whenever I thought of that arrogant and mean face, I couldn't help but feel angry.

In the past, she could only endure it, but now that her daughter has become successful, she doesn’t want to endure it anymore. So how long should she endure it?

When Dad heard the wrong tone of Mom's voice, his face was full of surprise. Then he thought that such a big event in the village should have been attended by everyone who could go. His Mom and sister-in-law loved to be in the limelight the most, so they would definitely be present at such an occasion.

Based on what Dad knows about his mother and sister-in-law, they must have said something unpleasant to make his wife so angry.

He knew better than anyone what kind of person his wife was.

When things were good, she followed him; when things were bad, she still took care of him without leaving him. If it were any other woman, she would have run away long ago.

With a slight sigh, Dad lay on the bed, tilted his head with a bit of loss, looking helpless.

Seeing Dad like this, Mom knew that what she had said just now was too harsh. After calming down, she slowly walked to Dad and sat down. She gently rubbed his back and said earnestly:

"Ji Lang, I'm sorry, I shouldn't have spoken like that just now.

Our daughter has worked hard enough taking care of our family, and she also has to think about your family, but your mother doesn't appreciate it at all, and always targets us on various occasions. I am standing up for my daughter!"

"Mom, what did she say again?"

Dad knew that something was bound to happen, and he was right. Dad became very excited, his eyes slightly red, and he turned his head to ask Mom.

Mother was frightened by father's eyes for a moment, and then she realized that she should not have told her husband about it. He had been lying in bed and was not in a good mood to begin with, and she was making things worse for him.

Forget it. Even if I tell her, it won’t change anything. It will only add to my husband’s worries and be bad for his health.

"It's nothing, the past is the past, the good wine didn't take it to heart, so why should we take it to heart?

There are two carriages left, how do you plan to divide them?"

The reason why mother asked father this was that she didn't want him to give the carriage to my aunt's family.
