Dressed as a young lady, she became rich by relying on Pinxixi

"She's not your daughter anymore if she goes to another county? How many times have you seen her in these years? I used to think Xueya didn't want to come back because her mother treated her sisters badly. Now I think about it, maybe she doesn't want to see you, her biological mother."

The Xu brothers, no, perhaps it’s the men themselves, who never pay enough attention to household matters.

They saw the results and the incomplete process and thought that was the truth.

Xu Wangshi was a strong mother, and her outstanding behavior often overshadowed the shortcomings of others.

If the fault lies with the parents, the son would not dare to say anything; but when Xu Huaishan discovered that this was not the case, he began to blame himself and also began to ask questions.

Honest people always have the temperament of being firm in their words, and He Xiangmei is still a little afraid of them.

He Xiangmei stole her daughter's dowry to support her parents' home. The key point was that this theft touched Xu Huaishan's bottom line. At this time, he was like a stubborn stone. He could not hear He Xiangmei's quarrels and explanations. He hugged a quilt and went to the main room to set up a stool to spend the night.

In the third room, Xu Huaize and Zhao Shuqin also had a sleepless night.

"You said that mother just gave the land to the eldest brother and the money to us, but didn't give any to the second brother. Does that mean she really doesn't care about the second brother?"

After a moment of silence, Xu Huaize replied, "Mother knows her limits. We'll listen to her first."

Listen to your mother? Zhao Shuqin turned her head to Xu Huaize and looked at his expression carefully. Is he sincere?

After Zhao Shuqin married into the Xu family, she originally respected her mother-in-law. But later, Xu Huaize told her not to care too much about Xu Wangshi and just to please her on the surface.

"Perhaps I misunderstood mother before. Shuqin, mother might know all the money deposited with my father-in-law."

Zhao Shuqin: ...

Yes, tonight they all witnessed Xu Wangshi's ability to settle accounts.

There are carved marks on the edge of the pottery jar, which was probably a way for the illiterate Xu Wangshi to record.

"Then...what should we do?" Although the money was to be divided among the three families, it was not easy to keep it for oneself before the division.

Not to mention that the reckless second brother would cause trouble for them when he came to his senses, even the honest and upright eldest brother would not let them go.

"Since mother didn't say anything, I'll just assume she promised. I'll find a chance to give some to my eldest and second sisters-in-law later."

"Why?" Zhao Shuqin couldn't figure it out. Her father had about twenty taels of silver saved, and from what Xu Huaize said, it had to be divided and given away.

"When the family was divided today, my eldest brother didn't get any money."

"But the money is earned by our family."

"So you didn't eat home-cooked meals, but lived in their house?"

"That's not as much as one hundred taels..." This was what Zhao Shuqin complained about the most.

For seventeen years, their family worked like slaves and earned all the money. If they were the only ones using it, they would not be a wealthy family in Xinshan Village, no, they would be a wealthy family in Yunyang Town.

The result? After the whole family spent money, only a little over thirty taels were left.

"If mother hadn't forced you and me to go to town, and if it weren't for my eldest brother and his wife being able to take care of the land and mother, and if my eldest brother-in-law hadn't helped, we wouldn't have been able to earn this money."

"Mother, eldest brother and sister-in-law, eldest sister and brother-in-law, all of these have merits, I admit, then what did second brother and sister-in-law do?"

"Let's ward off the disaster." Thinking of his second brother, Xu Huaize was helpless.

"what……"

"Without them, we would have been scolded more often. And, this time, I was the one who started it."

Zhao Shuqin: ...

"Okay, let's go to sleep first. I still have to get up early to work tomorrow morning. Oh, by the way, send the pottery jar to my mother's room tomorrow morning for safekeeping."

"Why?" The money was barely warm in my hand, and I gave it back? Zhao Shuqin was really unhappy.

"With this broken house and its rotten tiles, do you have the ability to defend against my second brother and Cheng Yuan?"

These two people are the kind of people who can pick up silver that falls into a cesspool. How can he not be on guard?

Previously, there was a Hua Po Po family in the village and everyone in the village went to distribute their belongings.

In addition to food and furniture, Xu Chengyuan went to dismantle the other family's roof beams and tiles, brought them back and asked his eldest brother to renovate the Xu family's house.

The money of a family that has lost its entire family can be divided, but not everything can be moved.

Everyone in the village said that Xu Chengyuan was like a swarm of locusts, hanging Grandma Hua from the roof beam and turning out all the copper coins pressed under the water tank.

These are all Feng Shui coins! If you touch them, aren't you afraid of retribution?

It was also Xu Wangshi who was afraid that Grandma Hua would look for Xu Chengyuan and bring trouble to the Xu family, so she did not allow him to enter the yard. She made him burn paper in front of Grandma Hua's grave for another day and return all the "money" before she felt relieved.

Let’s talk about his second brother. He has been able to take out the family’s stock since he was a child.

After having several fire sticks broken by Xu Wangshi, he developed the habit of staying away from Xu Wangshi's house.

"My second brother will be filial to our mother, but I am his younger brother, and he has no filial burden to bear with me."

Xu Huaize knew that Zhao Shuqin was reluctant to part with the money. "Don't worry. It's written in black and white on the family division agreement, and my uncle also witnessed it. My mother won't deny it."

"Oh." Zhao Shuqin responded reluctantly.

Their family still has to go to work, so it would be safer to keep such a large sum of money with Xu Wangshi.

Xu Huaize calculated that her mother definitely still had some pension money.

It's more than thirty taels, she took it out, so it won't be dirty.

Originally, they could have bought a house in town and moved out.

But now Xu Huaize still doesn't want to separate from Xu Wangshi and Xu Siyu.

Xu Siyu has changed a lot recently. If she is really blessed, he can't leave home at this time.

Compared with the two families who got a share of the property, Xu Huaichuan was more worried because he only got a dilapidated house due to money worries.

Looking at his son sleeping soundly beside him and his wife who had passed out, he was the only one awake and anxious in the endless darkness.

……

The day has come, no matter what everyone thinks, the day has come.

He Xiangmei rushed to make breakfast today.

She probably didn't sleep all night. She stopped Xu Nianyue who was making breakfast early in the morning and stood guard at Xu Wangshi's door with swollen eyes.

Zhao Shuqin, who had rushed to deliver money to Xu Wangshi early in the morning, hid and waited until He Xiangmei entered the kitchen before quietly going to find Xu Wangshi.

In this division of the family property, all the money that was divided returned to Xu Wangshi's hands after one night.

Even though Second Brother Xu's family cried and begged for mercy, the old lady still couldn't soften her heart. With the help of Big Brother Xu, they moved out of the Xu family's yard.

"Second brother, this is what the third brother asked me to give you." Xu Huaishan quietly handed a bag of copper coins to Xu Huaichuan.

"Brother, mother really doesn't want me anymore?"

Looking at his 36-year-old brother, who was still like a child and could only cry when he couldn't get what he wanted, Xu Huaishan felt that it was time for him to start his own business.

"Whether I want to or not, I don't know. You made me so angry, and it's impossible for you to go back before I calm down."

"Alas, you weren't such a bad person before. If Dad were still alive, listening to you and your wife talking back to Mom like that, I don't think you would even have this house."

The old house in the east of the village is the house of an old stonemason. The residential land is not big, but the ground is paved with stones and pebbles, making it a very good residential land.

It was also because their mother was capable that she somehow took the land from the village chief.
