I asked you to dig wild vegetables to pay off your debt, not go up the mountain to pick up money!

The quarrels and tantrums she had imagined never happened.

Instead, Old Man Wang, Pan and Wang Gener sat at the table, while Wang Yinger and Song Feng, Song Dashan and Zhang, as well as the eldest brother and his younger siblings, were all eating peacefully.

"?"

"Am I seeing things? How can it be so harmonious?"

Seeing her come back, the Song family members were very happy, and Song Dashan even pulled a stool and placed it next to him.

"Aning, go wash your hands and come to eat with Grandpa."

"Okay grandpa."

Qin Yuanying hurriedly added a set of bowls and chopsticks, and then went to help Song An Ning mix warm water for her to wash her hands.

Wang Ying'er was also helping. There were only three people from the Wang family. When they saw Song An Ning coming back, they looked a little unnatural.

However, he still managed to force a smile that was uglier than crying.

After washing her hands, Zhang inadvertently winked at her granddaughter, indicating that she should call for help.

"Grandpa, grandma, uncle..."

Although she was reluctant, they were A'niang's biological parents after all. She came to visit without making any noise or causing any trouble. She still had to observe the most basic courtesy.

"Hey, Aning looks thinner than before..."

"Hurry, let's eat..."

They were so cautious, which was very different from before.

"Didn't we break up? Why are you still coming here?!"

Xiangxiang muttered something, and Song An Ning looked up at her mother with a determined look in her eyes. She knew that there was no big problem, so she decided not to get involved and just watch.

After dinner, the family sat in the main hall. There were good candles burning in the room, and it was bright everywhere.

Wang Ying'er looked up at her parents and her incompetent mama's boy brother, and spoke first:

"Since we signed the severance agreement, I no longer have any relationship with you.

But you also said that you really have nothing to eat, so you just come to me to have a hot meal, as if you are begging for a bite to eat.

Even if my bones are broken, my tendons are still connected. You gave me life. Although you didn't treat me well, you didn't abuse me either. I grew up well-fed and well-clothed.

I have already repaid a lot of your kindness in raising me, and now I will repay the rest.

My life is better now, and I have some money. My brother-in-law gives his father-in-law and mother-in-law one tael of silver every month. Since you have the letter of severance, you can give half of it.

Half a liang per month, six liang per year, one liang during the Chinese New Year and other festivals, and one liang for the elders’ birthdays.

From now on, I will give you eight taels of silver every year.

On the first day of every month, I will have someone deliver the silver.

There's no need to come look for me in the future. Seeing you makes us all think of the past and feel uncomfortable."

"Ying'er, don't say that."

Song Dashan and his wife wanted to mediate and gave the money, but in the end, they were still complained about.

"Dad, Mom, I know what you mean.

But that's all there is to me, my parents, and my brother.

When my husband is not at home and I am sick, you come and bully my children.

If you were not my parents, I would really want to kill you to vent my anger.

However, the government has vented my anger. It's not easy for you in jail either, so this matter can be easily resolved.

I give you eight taels of silver to tell you my plan. If you don't agree, you won't get a penny.

Well, it's getting late. Here's this year's holiday money, birthday money, and this month's pension, a total of two and a half taels. Keep it and go back early."

"Ying'er, can you please put aside the past and return the money to us..."

"You don't need to say these words anymore, and you don't need to come here again. You can spend the money on anyone you want, and you can spend it however you want. You don't need to tell me.

From now on, I will inform the village patrols and guards that you will never be allowed to set foot in Banyue Village again. You just need to wait for the money to be delivered to you.

Take care of yourself, I won’t send you off.”

Now that the family has money, the way they dress and their temperament have changed dramatically.

The Wang family is the so-called bullying the weak and fearing the strong.

When they came here this time, they really couldn't afford to eat. The flood destroyed their house and there was nothing left.

So, when it was getting dark, they did not make a fuss or have any bad thoughts. They just wanted to ask Wang Ying'er to give them something to eat for the sake of their family relationship.

But unexpectedly, he had an unexpected gain and got money for his retirement.

Eight taels a year, the annual expenses of their family of three are less than two taels. The rest can be used to build a house, buy some basic things, and live a good life.

After hearing what Wang Ying'er said, how could they dare not disagree? They nodded continuously and didn't dare to say a word.

Mr. Wang took the silver and wanted to say a few words of concern to his daughter.

But when the words were on the tip of his tongue, he looked up and saw the cold eyes of his family, and swallowed his words back.

He just said thank you and left in shame with Pan and Wang Gener.

After they left, Wang Ying'er sighed and asked her daughter:

"That's what Mom does, right?"

Song An Ning held A Niang's hand and nodded firmly.

"Of course, we are not short of a few silver coins nowadays. There is no need to overthink and worry about things that can be solved with a little money.

It’s just a matter of half a tael of silver and half a jar of duck eggs.

After all, it is the grace of giving birth to me, so it is only right that I give something.

Moreover, as Banyue Village becomes better and better and our business grows bigger, there is no need to spread the story that I live like a lady while my parents are almost starving to death. It is not a pleasant story.

Don’t forget that our Ayuan wants to pursue a career in politics in the future.

Now that the severance agreement was in place, no matter what their family did, they would not be held jointly liable with their mother. Furthermore, under these circumstances, their mother still let bygones be bygones and took care of them.

As a role model of Banyue Village, our family’s reputation is sometimes also important.

The most important thing is that my grandparents are old, and I don’t want my mother to have any regrets.”

Song Anning's analysis was very clear and logical, which made Wang Ying'er feel relieved.

It’s great to have a daughter, unlike her silly son who runs to Qiuyue Courtyard every day.

If you ask him to make a decision, he will say, "It's all right, you guys decide, I'm going to help Qiuyue with the work, hehe..."

Wang Ying'er thought about it in her heart and said so to Song An Ning.

Seeing that his mother imitated his elder brother so well, Song An Ning laughed out loud, and the cold atmosphere in the room improved a lot.

At this time, Qin Yuanying quietly cleaned up the kitchen, boiled two large pots of hot water, and prepared to go home with Xiao Yingchun.

It was getting late, and the family chatted for a while. They asked Song Anning what he had done in the past few days, where he had been, and whether he had been injured...

Afterwards, everyone fetched water to wash up. Song Anning sat in the bathtub, drowsy.

Suddenly, the system sounded the alarm again:

"Ding ding ding, Master, please take care of it!

Luo Yu and Wei Shisan in the space necklace are fighting!"

"Tsk tsk, this guy was Xia Qingyan just two days ago, and he's changed back again?

Let’s go and take a look…”
