"What kind of person am I?"

Sun sneered: "You know what kind of person you are. I have seen many people who fled from the south, but this is the first time I have seen people like you. And you are a mother with a daughter, tsk tsk tsk... It's funny that you are pretending in front of me."

Ye Shian narrowed her eyes slightly, and she vaguely understood what Sun's insinuating words meant.

"What do you mean? Tell me clearly."

"What do I mean? That's what I mean. Haha, if you don't want others to know, then don't do it. Don't think that no one here knows who you and your daughter are."

Yu Xiuying didn't say a word in the yard. She knew her daughter could handle it, but she never expected that Sun would throw dirty water on them. It would be fine if she just said something about her, but she even dared to say something about her daughter.

She walked quickly to the door. Sun's reaction was very quick. When she saw Yu Xiuying coming towards her aggressively, she quickly stepped back and barely avoided the slap from Yu Xiuying.

"Keep your mouth shut. If you keep talking nonsense, I'll tear your mouth apart."

Ye Shian had no intention of letting the mother and son go, so she went up and snatched the snack that Dazhuang was still holding in his hand.

"You steal other people's things and dare to make trouble at their door. You are really sick."

After that, he said to Yu Xiuying, "Mom, let's go home." Then he slammed the door shut again.

Only Sun's mother and son were left standing at the door staring at each other.

Da Zhuang was so angry when he saw his empty palms. He didn't get to eat the meat, and now he didn't even have any snacks.

"Woo woo woo, my snack, my snack..."

It was not until Ye Shian went to grab the snack from Dazhuang that Sun noticed that her son was still holding the food. At this moment, she knew what was going on.

She doted on her son too much on weekdays, so when her son was crying, she came to question him without asking any questions. But she still felt that it was the Ye family's fault, and the Ye family shouldn't bother with a child.

She was so angry that her teeth were itching, but she didn't dare to knock on the door again. If she hadn't reacted quickly, the slap would have hit her in the face.

"Just eat, eat, eat. Why don't you just go home now?"

"Mother, I..."

"What are you talking about? Shut up."

"What's the point of crying? Will people give you meat to eat if you cry? You are useless."

After pushing Dazhuang all the way back home, Sun was so angry that she sat in the room and kept cursing.

"You're bullying me because my man is not at home, right? Fine, just wait for me. When my man comes back, I won't let you off."

When Wang Qiang and his wife returned home, Wang Xuening immediately came to greet them: "Dad, Mom, how is the house going?"

Wang had a cold face and didn't say anything. Wang Qiang sighed and shook his head, looking distressed as he sat there.

Seeing his parents like this, Wang Xue Ning's smile disappeared: "Hasn't the foundation been laid? Now that the foundation has been laid, let's start building it."

When Wang was mentioned, she was furious: "This is all the work of that widow and her daughter. We were planning to pay the bricklayer fifteen cents a day, but she wanted to pay him twenty cents and even provide a meal at noon. You see, they did this just to embarrass us."

Wang Xuening also frowned when she heard this. She came to Wang Qiang and poured him a glass of water: "Dad, what did you say?"

Wang Qiang took the water cup and took a sip: "Fortunately, we didn't ask the head of the village for a fixed salary. Since their family set the price at 20 wen a day, let's also set it at 20 wen a day."

Then he gritted his teeth and said, "We'll also provide a meal at noon."

Wang Dalu and Wang Dashan just came back from the mountain and ran back to the house excitedly: "Mom and Dad, when will our house be built?"

Their family of five now lives in an abandoned cowshed. It’s okay because the weather is hot now, but when the weather gets cold, the cowshed will be too small to accommodate them.

Seeing that both their parents were silent, the two brothers looked at Wang Xuening.

Wang Xue Ning briefly explained the whole thing. When the two brothers heard it, they were furious that so much money had been wasted.

"Are those two mentally ill? They just want to show off their wealth. They only charge 20 cents a day and get a meal. How dare they do that?"

"That's right, why are you showing off? It's just a couple of stinky bucks."

"Hey, don't tell me, they really have some filthy riches. Didn't you hear the villagers say that the mother and daughter were wrapped in blankets and followed whoever came..."

Wang Xue Ning couldn't help frowning when she heard her two brothers talking so harshly: "Brother, what are you talking about?"

Wang also scolded her eldest son: "Dalu, your sister is still here, don't say anything."

Wang Qiang gritted his teeth and said, "This house must be built, and quickly. I will go find the head of the village now, and we will start construction tomorrow."

"Dad and Mom, don't worry about the money. I'll just embroider a few more handkerchiefs."

The next day, Ziyuan and Zhu Li went to the county to set up a stall. Zhu Ying was responsible for looking after Ziyuan, while Ye Shian and his mother stayed at home. Before the sun came out, people from the village who helped build the house arrived.

Ye Shian took the blueprint to show the foreman, who was an experienced bricklayer who had built many houses. The owner could tell him what kind of house he wanted to build and he would make sure it would satisfy him.

The foreman smiled and said, "I saw your blueprint yesterday. Your design is really extraordinary."

"Master, do you think it can be completed within a month?"

"One month?" the foreman exclaimed, "Such a rush."

Ye Shian nodded: "The house needs to be aired out after it's built, we want to move in as soon as possible."

The foreman understood what Ye Shian meant: "If we want to finish the project in a month, we don't have enough people. It will take a lot of time just to bring in water from the river."

"Then please help us find some helpers."

The foreman nodded and said, "Okay, if I can't find it in this village, I'll go to the next village. It's 20 cents a day, and there are plenty of people to do it."

On the vacant land in front of their house, Wang Qiang's family is also starting construction. Their house is of a normal size.

Ye Shian has more than twenty people, while Wang Qiang has only more than ten.

Dalu and Dashan looked at Ye Shian, then looked at each other. Neither of them said anything, but they just kept their heads down to work. However, they already had an idea in their minds. They had to teach the mother and daughter a lesson.

Liu knew that Ye Shian was going to start work today, so she hurriedly pulled her son over here.

"The head of the village is such a piece of shit. He knew I had a crush on that girl, but he didn't allow you to go to her house to work. He thought that if he didn't allow you to go, you wouldn't go. Humph, let's go by ourselves."

Sihai said in the back with a bitter face: "Mom, I don't want to go."

"What do you mean you don't want to go? You have to go. Do you know how big a yard they want to build? I went to see it yesterday. It's so huge. Can they live there alone?"

"Just listen to your mother and behave yourself when you get there. When you marry a daughter-in-law, we will be able to control you."

"Mom, haven't you heard what's going on in the village now?"

The rumor was like autumn leaves. After one night of autumn wind, the whole village knew about it the next day.

"Oh, that's not important. As long as she's in our house, the things are ours, and we have the final say over that person."

Si Hai wanted to struggle but Liu held his hand tightly: "Hurry up, I heard that their family provides meals."
