Traveling through famine: The space peasant girl

Chapter 86: Calculating People's Hearts

In fact, Zhang Jie had forgotten about her a long time ago. If she hadn't suddenly appeared, the child's marriage would probably have been delayed by Zhang Jie. However, since someone was willing to marry into a farming family, the other girls in the Zhang family were relieved.

You have to know that in their hearts, even if they are in trouble now, it does not mean that they will be in trouble in the future. Therefore, they actually look down on Wang Yixin who comes from a farming family. But Zhang Xiuli is different. She knows some things, especially the money of the Zhang family. It was all sent by the old man. She saw it once when she was lazy. Naturally, she knows something about the Wang family. Since her sisters are unwilling to be with the Wang family, they fulfill her wish and let her come to enjoy the good life.

So Zhang Xiuli knew her situation. If she couldn't make it with the Wang family this time, she would probably die in Zhou Island. So even if it meant paying some price, she couldn't be rejected by Wang Yixian and had to enter the Wang family's door. After knowing that the yellow-faced woman gave birth to a son, she knew that her advantage might be wiped out by this child, so she came up with another plan.

In fact, a lot of things happened during this year. Wang Shiyu's grandmother was in poor health due to overwork, and later passed away. In fact, it was because the old man did not care about her, which resulted in her grandmother not getting a good rest. Moreover, all the things in the family fell on the second daughter-in-law. She had to do housework during the day and embroidery at night, which caused her body to fall ill after a period of time. There was no one to take care of her during that time, which caused the old lady to become angry and die.

It is said that when she died, she was still cursing her granddaughter, calling her unfilial, and this word had been spread by the neighbors. Her reputation in Qiongdao was completely ruined. Even if she returned, she would be in a mess and there was no way to explain it. The Wang family's deaf and dumb behavior made her even more disgusted.

That's why she thought of a way to keep the people Zhang Qianqian brought. Since they were seeking death and didn't want her to go back, then there was no need to go back. She could just keep them all and act together. She wouldn't suffer any loss anyway. She just didn't know how far Zhang Xiuli could go. It would be best for her to follow her own script, otherwise she would suffer a great loss.

In Wang Shiyu's opinion, this matter was actually the old lady's own fault. If she hadn't been accustomed to being supported by the man in the family and having everything provided for her, how could no one take care of her?

Even if the old lady put all the responsibility on herself, it would be useless. After all, she didn't dare to go against her husband's words, but still took her anger out on her granddaughter. The preference for boys over girls was really too serious, and it had even reached the top of the world's female role model.

Soon it was evening, and the reason for holding this farewell banquet for the teachers was because they might return to Qiong Island.

Since the old man continued to let them stay here, Wang Shiyu went to discuss with Mr. Liu and asked him to continue teaching. Wang Shiyu also wanted Zhou Qingyun to have something to do and not run around outside.

Mr. Liu also readily agreed. After all, Wang Shiyu's family had little money and little resources, and he also respected him very much. Naturally, he was willing to continue teaching this smart child. He knew that once Zhang Qingzhou passed the exam, his reputation would spread, and more people would want him to teach in the future. He valued this disciple very much.

This was a win-win situation, so Wang Shiyu directly handed the silver given to him by the old man to Mr. Liu, hoping that he could teach Zhou Qingyun well, so that the child could have peace for the next two years. He also hoped that he could keep his pure heart and not become involved with the Zhang and Wang families.

During the evening rest, Wang Shiyu took out one hundred taels of silver and gave it to Mo Ruru, asking her to save it and saying that this was the money given by the old man. Wang Shiyu didn't want to keep it, after all, it would be troublesome to spend it, so it would be better to give it directly to her mother and let her buy some small things for her brother.

The money that Wang Shiyu earned outside was never given to Mo Ruru to manage, and Mo Ruru would never ask her for money. She would just tell her daughter when she needed money, and Wang Shiyu would buy it back when she got home. Especially since Mo Ruru didn't care about money before, and the old man was in charge of it all.

So for her, it is the same whether she has money or not, but since her daughter gave it to her, she will keep it. Anyway, her daughter will not lack food and drink. You know, her life now is the best life she has had in nearly ten years. There are always meat dishes on the table every day. The food is already very good.

Since Wang Shiyu became the housekeeper, they have never lacked food and drink. There are always vegetables and meat on the table. In this year, Mo Ruru and Zhou Qingyun's health has also been improved. Although they both look a little thin, they actually have very good complexions and even their strength has improved.

Wang Shiyu tried her best to buy Zhou Qingyun the best writing brushes, ink, paper and inkstone. She only hoped that this kid would not be an ungrateful person like his grandparents in the future. It could be considered an investment. The old man did not give the kid money privately this time, probably because he did not have so much money on hand.

With the money given by the old man, Zhou Qingyun could not live such a good life. However, he knew very well who gave him the good life now, so he never said much. Every time no matter what was given to him, he would accept it quietly, and then study harder and practice calligraphy. When he was not resting, he would hold the newborn baby and play with him, and never caused trouble for Wang Shiyu.

Because there was no elder to give the child a name after he was born, Wang Shiyu gave him a nickname, Ruirui. The fortune teller said that Ruirui lacked gold in the five elements, so a nickname with gold was needed to suppress Ruirui's fate. She also hoped that he would become a wise and talented person in the future, and hoped that the child would grow up healthy and free from illness.
