"Look, I'm going to teach you a lesson! My son-in-law will be coming to take me to live with him soon. He'll have delicious food every day!"

Although she said this, she knew that none of this was true.

Seeing her like this, the villagers laughed even more unscrupulously, and then gradually dispersed to go about their own business.

In the end, the old lady was the only one left standing there, gasping for breath, feeling extremely humiliated.

Old Mrs. Zhang slumped weakly on the threshold of her house. Suddenly, her eyes rolled around and a light bulb went off in her head, as if she had come up with a new plan.

"My daughter, listen carefully," she whispered, "Go secretly to the Song family to see what the situation is with their house. And remember to find Wen Yao. Be careful and don't let the Song family find out!"

The words were full of conspiracy.

"Why can't the Song family find out?"

Zhang Xiuqin asked curiously, full of questions about her mother's sudden instruction, but also with a hint of excitement that she couldn't contain.

Zhang Xiuqin actually wanted to go back to the Song family directly.

This period of time tortured her a lot. She was thinking about how to improve her situation almost every day!

She could only eat watery soup for every meal, and she even felt that she was almost starving to death in this hard life.

If I stay at the Song family, at least I can have some porridge to fill my stomach. If I'm lucky, I might even have a chance to secretly taste some rare pieces of meat!

"If they find out, how are we going to get the money?"

Old Madam Zhang glared at him with her triangular eyes, which seemed to carry a threat. "Hurry up and call Wen Yao back. Tell him that his son misses his father!"

His voice was filled with undeniable determination.

Zhang Xiuqin had long been accustomed to being obedient, especially when facing Old Lady Zhang who always gave firm orders, she did not dare to have the slightest thought of rebuttal.

So she had no choice but to follow the instructions and walk towards the foot of the North Peak.

On the way, she heard the whispers of people in the village. Everyone was talking about how the Song family had made a lot of money. This made her feel extremely excited, as if the shiny silver was about to fall into her pocket.

She had already secretly made a plan in her mind. When she saw Song Wenxiao, she would immediately take him home with her, and ask him for some money in the name of the child, hide it in her arms and take it back.

Soon Zhang Xiuqin saw the beautiful new house built by the Song family from a distance. In order to avoid exposing her target in advance, she quickly hid behind a thick tree beside the road to observe.

Wow, seven new rooms were built in one go!

There is also a smaller stone building on the side, which should be a place used for cooking - the so-called kitchen?

Then Zhang Xiuqin hurriedly used her fingers to count the number of people who might live in each room and their whereabouts:

Ok……

There are exactly seven houses in total!

So first of all, it is OK for two elders in the family to occupy one room;

Then the eldest brother and his family of three can live in an adjacent room;

Next, the third couple will definitely need a private space to live together;

Finally, leaving it alone for the unmarried sister-in-law to have her own little nest was a reasonable arrangement;

As for the remaining two...

One of them was of course prepared for himself and Wen Yao;

The remaining one is naturally a great place carefully designed for the children Da Hu and Xiao Long!

Yes, that's right, this is the ideal configuration!

When the day comes that the annoying and irritating sister-in-law really finds a good family and marries successfully,

I can reallocate the previously vacant accommodation resources.

How wonderful it would be to set up a little world just for your dear little dragon baby to enjoy!

Just as Zhang Xiuqin was secretly painting a beautiful blueprint in her heart,

Suddenly, I noticed two villagers in front of me rushing towards the Song family.

"Hurry, hurry, hurry up! If you're late, you might miss the chance to register!"

Someone shouted anxiously.

Another companion echoed, "That's quite right. Look, for a small price of just five ounces of silver, you can gain the opportunity to learn this valuable knowledge. By diligently studying and mastering it, not only can you save the expense of hiring a craftsman to build a heated kang for your family, you won't even have to shell out extra for a regular bed frame."

The person in front obviously didn't realize the huge potential benefits behind such a good thing, so his companion had to patiently continue to explain:

"You're so naive! After you've learned enough, you can start working for others to earn a living. When you've saved enough, are you still worried about not being able to afford everything?"

After hearing his friend's words, he suddenly understood and praised repeatedly: "Oh, that's great! Brother Zhang is so smart and clever!"

The person known as "Big Brother Zhang" responded jokingly, "Alright, alright, that's good to know. No need to brag too much. Now that we all understand the importance of this, why don't we collaborate on a side project to increase our income? How about a 40% to 60% profit split?"

Upon hearing the proposal, the other party excitedly agreed and replied, "Okay! It's settled. Let's work together to achieve our dream of financial freedom soon, partner!"

Looking at these young men, Zhang Xiuqin felt that they were so stupid and had no idea of ​​their own limitations.

Just when she was thinking that these people were really stupid, she suddenly saw a group of people rushing towards her with excited faces.

"I have to grab a spot to learn the craft today no matter what. I'm sure to earn back the tuition!"

One of the young men spoke with confidence, having obviously calculated the long-term benefits of this skill.

"That's right. If Song Yuanmu refuses to teach us, it means he is looking down on our five taels of silver."

Another young man responded right after him, his eyes flashing with determination, as if he had made some decision.

"He has already opened the class, so he must let us learn. Otherwise, he is bullying us!"

Some people excitedly waved their arms and shouted loudly, as if they could not express their anger and unwillingness otherwise.

……

A group of people rushed towards the gate of the Song family with great momentum as if they were going to a war. They were so fierce that it seemed as if they really wanted to turn the world upside down!

Then, under the leadership of these people, more people joined in, and the original crowd swelled instantly. Now the number of people gathered at the door was more than three times that of before!

This number made Zhang Xiuqin almost laugh out loud.

It’s so good, it couldn’t be better!

The more people come, the better it is for their family.

Because each person had to pay five taels of silver to register, at first only two people came to inquire, then it became five, and now it has reached more than ten people...

Such a large increase in numbers was almost too much for her to count!
