When they reached the end of the village, Zhou Dazhu got off the car first and went back to Zhou's house.

The guys from the grain and oil shop continued to drive the carriage directly into the Qin family's yard.

After parking the carriage, Qin Ruo diligently helped unload the things on the carriage without asking her to say anything.

At this time, Old Mrs. Qin was cursing while cooking dinner in the kitchen.

In the past, when Qin Qiuxi went out to sell game, he would come back early to help with housework.

Old Mrs. Qin was so angry when she thought about Qin Ruo deliberately leaving her behind and taking Qin Zimu to the market alone.

Qin Ziyan had already returned to the academy in the morning. He left with empty hands and a gloomy face.

Old Lady Qin got angry when she thought of Qin Ziyan's expression when he left. This anger was mainly directed at Qin Ruo.

Hearing the noise in the yard, she rushed out of the kitchen.

"You damn girl..."

When she saw the carriage parked in the yard and the guys moving things, her throat tightened and her neck felt like someone was strangling her, and she stopped talking.

After unloading the goods, the clerk from the grain and oil shop immediately said goodbye to Qin Ruo and drove away in the carriage.

As soon as the carriage left the Qin family's yard, Old Lady Qin could no longer suppress her anger.

"Are you crazy, you little girl? Where's the money from selling things? Where's the reward money from the government? Have you spent it all?"

Looking at the pile of things on the ground, Old Lady Qin's forehead was throbbing.

She looked carefully and thought that even the grain and oil shop had been emptied out.

Doesn’t she know what the situation is at home?

Refined rice and white flour, can the Qin family afford this kind of thing?

Looking at the two brand new quilts and several sets of ready-made clothes, Old Lady Qin felt more and more disappointed.

Thinking about the money Qin Ruo earned from selling her prey and the reward from the government, she probably spent it all without even seeing her. She felt so heartbroken that her body was about to collapse.

Qin Ruo didn't even bat an eyelid and directly ordered Qin Zimu to move the things back to the house.

Seeing that Qin Ruo ignored her, Old Lady Qin followed her into the house, becoming angrier and louder as she spoke.

"Qin Qiuxi! Are you listening? I ask you, where's the money? Hand over the rest! Take these useless things like clothes and quilts and return them tomorrow!"

"Is there enough food and clothes for you at home?"

The family's money has always been controlled by her. Qin Ruo's self-willed attitude made Old Lady Qin feel a deep sense of crisis.

Old Mrs. Qin was so angry that she almost forgot how Qin Ruo treated her in the past few days.

Qin Zimu shrank back and dared not speak.

"Have you forgotten? I said I would not hand over a penny of my earnings in the future."

"I don't lack food and clothes. Have you bought quilts for Erlang and me to keep warm in the winter? Have you bought us a new piece of clothing in the past three years? What's the matter? Could it be that Erlang and I are outsiders? Not surnamed Qin?"

"Also, I have to tell you. From now on, there is no Qin Qiuxi in this family. There is only Qin Ruo. I just went to the government office to change my name today, and it has been registered."

Qin Ruo, who was packing things, stood up and stared at Old Lady Qin with a cold expression without fear.

"What do you mean by yours and mine? Aren't they all part of this family..."

"I ate two eggs, and you still yelled that I stole them. What? The money I earned became the family's again. Don't be so hypocritical!"

Old Mrs. Qin was dizzy after hearing Qin Ruo's words.

She didn't understand anything about there being no Qin Qiuxi in this family and what double standards were.

She only understood one thing, that the money earned by her granddaughter in the future would no longer be handed over to her for her to manage.

Then...what about Dalang's studies in the future?

Old Mrs. Qin's eyes were red. She turned her head away, wiping her tears and ran out.

She couldn't argue with Qin Ruo and had no way to deal with Qin Ruo at all. She felt sad and wronged.

I do favor Dalang a little, but what I eat is the same as what Erlang Qiuxi eats.

She neither kept her secrets nor did she secretly treat herself better.

As for what Qin Ruo said, she hasn’t bought new clothes for three years.

But I haven’t bought any new clothes in these three years!

If there is a scholar in the family, then every penny must be spent carefully, right?

Wear clothes if they can be worn. Isn’t that how poor people live?

Why doesn't it work when it comes to my own girl?

The hard times will be over soon. When Dalang becomes successful, will he still be afraid of not having a good life?

Look! That pile of refined rice and flour, does this look like someone who knows how to live?

The more Old Mrs. Qin thought about it, the more aggrieved she felt. She didn't even cook, went back to her room, buried her head in the quilt, and started to cry.

Qin Ruo listened to the crying of Old Lady Qin next door, but her heart was not moved at all.

Qin Ruo was deliberately ignoring Old Lady Qin. She was determined to establish her own rules.

If you want everyone to have a good life, you have to follow her rules.

To avoid that Old Lady Qin would interfere in everything she did in the future. It wasn’t that she couldn’t handle it but that she found it annoying.

As for whether Old Lady Qin would kick her out of the Qin family, that was not something Qin Ruo considered at all.

When it's time to leave, Grandma Qin doesn't need to rush her, she will leave on her own.

Qin Zimu listened to Old Lady Qin's voice, and a trace of pity flashed in his eyes.

Grandma was angry with her elder sister because of money. She touched the purse on her body and looked at Qin Ruo eagerly.

He was struggling over whether or not to hand over the one or two ounces of silver melon seeds he had obtained.

"Don't ask me! I told you that it's yours, so you can do whatever you want with it."

Qin Ruo looked at Qin Zimu's cautious movements and found it a little funny.

Qin Zimu is kind and soft-hearted, and she will not stop him.

Everyone's thoughts should be independent, and she never thought of pulling Qin Zimu into her camp.

She also didn't want Qin Zimu to be like her and go against Old Lady Qin.

The reason why she was willing to treat Qin Zimu better was simply because she felt a sense of sympathy.

Another point is that since Qin Zimu was the person the original owner was willing to protect, she didn't mind protecting him a little as long as it didn't violate her own principles.

Of course, if one day Qin Zimu turned around and pointed a knife at her, she would not show mercy.

Qin Zimu got a response from Qin Ruo and a smile appeared on his face.

The innocent boy ran out happily and walked towards Old Lady Qin's house.

Old Mrs. Qin was in the room just now. She was just pretending to cry a few times, but for a long time, Qin Ruo didn't come to comfort her.

I really cried.

As I was crying, I suddenly felt like something was wrong.

She thought about it for a long time, and suddenly came to an idea.

This amount of money is wrong!

According to her estimation, the money from selling the game, plus the two taels of reward from the government office, should not be enough to buy so many things.

Where does the remaining money come from?

Old Mrs. Qin no longer cared about her grievance. She immediately sat up and wanted to find Qin Ruo to ask for clarification.

As soon as I opened the door, I saw Qin Zimu standing at the door shyly, holding a purse.
