After saying that, he seemed to be still not satisfied, so he turned around and questioned his father lying on the bed:

"Erlang, what do you think? Don't you want to lie in the same carriage with your mother?"

How she had the nerve to ask such a question, no one knew, only she herself knew it best.

A carriage can indeed accommodate two people lying sideways, but there is definitely no room for movement.

Wen Houyu was fine, as he had been bedridden for years and hardly moved. The old lady was too old to lie down like him, so it would be more appropriate for her to sit in a more spacious carriage.

Dad knew Wen Meijiu's original plan. Now after hearing what sister-in-law said, he really felt that Wen Meijiu's original plan was unnecessary and that such a person deserved not to be given to her.

With a cold snort, Dad was too lazy to pay attention to her. It was disrespectful to talk to such a shrew.

"Erlang is silent, Lanzhi, you have to say something, right?"

Mother sat next to grandma, with her eyelashes drooped. She didn't want to pay any attention to her. Arguing with her would only lower her status.

No one paid any attention to Ren Meiluo, and he became a little annoyed.

"Are you guys going too far? What do you think of your mother?

In your eyes, is my mother not even worthy of a carriage?"

Even at this point, Ren Meiluo still couldn't understand the situation and thought she could talk nonsense and frame others. Wen Meijiu felt sorry for her.

“Who told you that grandma doesn’t even deserve a carriage?

According to my father's wishes, both carriages will be given to grandma. She can arrange them however she wants, and our family will not interfere."

As soon as these words came out, the old lady who had been eating meat with her head down suddenly widened her eyes, looked at Wen Meijiu in disbelief, and asked:

"Give them all to me?"

Wen Meijiu nodded and said easily:

“That’s what Dad and Mom had planned.

Yesterday, Dad and Mom discussed that the family was too busy this year and they hadn’t taken good care of grandma.

The total value of these two carriages should be at least 40 or 50 taels of silver, which can be regarded as the advance payment from my parents for my grandmother's living expenses.

There are some things we have to say upfront. If anyone says we are not filial to grandma again, grandma has to help us clarify the matter in person.

Also, to prevent bad people from causing trouble in the future, please put your fingerprint on the receipt, so that you don’t have to argue with others in the future.”

This incident really shocked the old lady. Forty or fifty taels of silver and warm wine were just given to her like that?

Not to mention ten years, she would be happy even if it was twenty years. Ten years, on average, would be five taels of silver a year.

Five taels of silver was enough food for their whole family for more than a year.

Fearing that this was a lie, grandma pretended to decline and asked:

"Then what do you do?"

"I will take care of this matter, so you don't have to worry about it. As long as you agree to my request, it will be fine."

It turned out to be true. The old lady was overjoyed. How could such a good thing happen in the world? She was given two carriages at once.

"Okay, that's nothing, it's just a small matter, it's all a small matter."

As she spoke, the old lady had already put down her bowl and chopsticks, stretched out her hand in front of my mother, and said:

"Lanzhi, give me that thing."

My mother definitely doesn't have this thing, but the warm and delicious wine has been prepared long ago and is placed in the space.

She turned and went to the west room, took out the written paper and red ink from the space, and handed them to her grandmother.

Grandma was afraid that something might happen, and since she couldn't read at all, she didn't even bother asking someone else to read to her. She just dipped her hand in the red ink and pressed it onto the paper herself.
