Disguised as a man: Watch me create a new dynasty

Time seemed to stand still, and the old man struggled to shift his gaze from the table to his wife.

"How is it? Are you crazy?"

"You come from a wealthy family, so you can estimate how much silver this will cost. If you can't guess, I'll go to Old Li's house to borrow a scale."

After all, the old man had experienced the family's most prosperous period and had seen many rare treasures.

But after so many years of hard life, where every penny had to be spent carefully, suddenly gold appeared in the house!

Who understands that feeling of horror!

Yuan Niang looked at her father-in-law who was always calm and composed and showed such a cute expression! Yes! It was a cute expression!

It’s rare to see such a cute looking old man.

The old man came to his senses and stretched out his hand to weigh it.

“That’s still a lot.”

The old man looked at his eldest grandson in Mrs. Zhang's arms, his heart full of struggle.

This kid is really good at pulling...

He is worthy of being my grandson!

"The silver is about forty taels, and the gold..."

His hands trembled again, "It should be... ten taels!"

As soon as the words fell, two gasps were heard.

Mrs. Zhang excitedly gave the cradle Yan Nansheng a big kiss on the face.

"I have never seen so much silver in my life!"

"Thanks to my grandson, we have become a wealthy family!"

Yuanniang calculated in her mind for a while, "Oh my God, this, this adds up to one hundred and forty taels of silver!"

"Mom! This year our children will all have enough to eat!"

"No more... no more children dying of starvation..."

The excited atmosphere suddenly dissipated.

Thinking of the baby who died in the old family, everyone fell silent.

The old man reached out and touched the top of his grandson's head in the cradle.

"No, I will never lose my loved ones again..."

"We can't have any more deaths in the Yan family!"

The three sisters-in-law outside the house came out when they heard Yuanniang's cry and walked around in the yard anxiously.

"It's so frustrating, I don't know what happened, why hasn't my father-in-law come out yet?"

It’s not that they don’t want to go in, but the room is too small to accommodate so many people.

The eldest son’s wife thought of her child who died before he was one month old.

She was starved to death!

My family is poor and I don’t have enough food to eat, so I have no milk.

"No! I have to ask what happened."

Perhaps she heard the voices of the daughters-in-law outside, and Mrs. Zhang quickly spoke to comfort them, "Old lady, come in and take the basin out."

"Sister-in-law, please go in quickly!" The third daughter-in-law was so anxious that she wished she could go in place of her sister-in-law.

The eldest son's wife smelled a foul odor as soon as she entered the house. "Mom, why is it so smelly? Did Dabao poop?"

Before she could pick up the wooden basin, her mother-in-law stuffed a cloth bag into her arms.

"Mom, this is..."

!!!

Mrs. Zhang quickly covered the eldest son's wife's mouth.

"Don't make any noise. If you don't make any noise, I'll let you go. If you understand, just nod your head."

The eldest son’s wife nodded with dazed eyes.

Mrs. Zhang slowly loosened her hand.

Seeing her sister-in-law's hands shaking as she held the cloth bag, Yuanniang felt strangely balanced.

Mrs. Zhang opened the door and let the second and third sons' wives in. Everyone gathered around the table. The old man held Yan Nansheng and sat on the only stool in the room.

"I'm going to say something next. I hope you all stay calm and don't shout."

"Remember, don't show off your wealth."

Seeing that several daughters-in-law nodded in agreement, he then spoke.

"It's not convenient for the second son to come in. His wife should go back and let him know."

Considering that people might not react so strongly if they don't see the real thing, Mrs. Zhang had already tied up the cloth bag and placed it on the table.

The old man pointed to the cloth bag on the table and said, "There are 140 taels of gold and silver in it."

Without giving the second and third sons’ wives time to react, he immediately added: “In the next period of time, we can relax a little.”

"Your mother-in-law is the head of our family. I will take Dabao to Lao Er's room, and you guys...you guys can discuss it."

The sound of the door closing with a "click" was like some mechanism being activated.

The second and third sons' wives seemed to come alive suddenly.

"mother?!"

"Oh my god!"

Mrs. Zhang, the eldest daughter-in-law and Yuanniang looked at each other, and all three of them couldn't help laughing.

"Well, it's just as you heard. Our family has money now, a huge amount of money."

"Just like your father said, you must keep your mouth shut. Don't tell anyone, not even your parents!"

"This one hundred and forty taels may sound like a lot, but there are so many people in our family that we don't need to spend too much."

Looking at her daughters-in-law with their heads down, seemingly thinking about something, Mrs. Zhang sighed.

"You have been here for quite some time, and I know all your personalities."

"If one of you is not a good person, I can't tell this."

After that, several people looked up at their mother-in-law.

Yes, my mother-in-law is a smart person and has a good eye for people.

Hearing their mother-in-law's approval of them, they all felt a little embarrassed.

The eldest daughter-in-law was impatient, "Mom, don't worry, we will keep our mouths shut and not say anything nonsense."

Hearing the eldest sister-in-law's assurance, the other two also nodded vigorously.

The second son’s wife: “I won’t tell you even in my dreams!”

The third daughter-in-law: “Yes!”

Mrs. Zhang: ...

Yuanniang covered her mouth and chuckled.

"It happens that there will be a market tomorrow. I will take my eldest and second wives to the town to buy some food and cloth."

"Third wife, you stay home and take care of your brother and sister-in-law."

The third son’s wife nodded in agreement.

Here, the five people, mother-in-law and daughters-in-law, were discussing heatedly, while in Uncle Yan's room, the father and son were silent with red eyes.

"Dad, is what you said true?"

"I know you can't accept it, but given our family's current situation, we really need a boy."

"I, I know... I'm useless and I need to use my niece to gain a foothold..."

"No nonsense!"

"But Dad... my niece has just been born and is burdened with all this..."

"I...I really can't bear it."

Uncle Yan's hands, which were clutching the quilt, had blue veins on them and his eyes were red.

Since childhood, my father taught us that real men should be upright and have the courage to take responsibilities.

No matter how hard or tiring life was, the women in the family were never allowed to show up in public or take on family responsibilities.

Being a woman at home is hard enough, why should...

Looking at the decadent look of his only son, the old man closed his eyes and said, "Your father is still alive and well!"

"When did you ask a baby in swaddling clothes to carry the burden?"

"Our Dabao...is the reincarnation of an immortal, and possesses great magical powers!"

Uncle Yan, who was originally still struggling with his own incompetence, suddenly stopped caring about being sad and stared blankly at his father.

"You...what did you say? God? Who is the god?"

"What gods? I'm talking about our newborn baby!"

……

As soon as Yan Nansheng woke up, he heard his step-grandfather and second uncle whispering to each other.

This is the bad thing about babies. They just sleep all day and are awake very rarely.

"I really want to grow up quickly..."
