Rebirth of an Old Farmer: Escape from Famine with Children and Grandchildren

"Oh, Miss Ma, this is unreasonable."

Old Lady Sun put her hands on her hips and instantly put on a scoundrel look: "When I gave you the idea, you agreed to it voluntarily. That silver is the money to buy the idea."

"As for the effect, doesn't it depend on your own performance? But who knows what you did? What if you made Kou Zhong unhappy?"

Xu Xiangxiang had never expected Old Lady Sun to be so shameless. She was so angry that her whole body was shaking and she even forgot to cry: "You! You are so unreasonable!"

"It's true that I came up with the idea, but the same trick, when used by different people, can produce vastly different results."

"Why is it that it works a hundred times better for others but fails for you? Why don't you look for the reason in yourself first?"

As she spoke, Old Lady Sun looked at Xu Xiangxiang's slender figure sarcastically.

Xu Xiangxiang subconsciously covered her chest tightly, angry and embarrassed: "What do you mean it's not you!"

"You little bitch, do you want the money or not?"

Old Lady Sun rolled her eyes and pretended to close the door: "Payment is settled, no returns or exchanges!"

"boom!"

The door slammed shut in front of Xu Xiangxiang, almost hitting her nose.

Xu Xiangxiang was so angry that she felt dizzy.

She pointed at the closed door and cursed loudly: "Don't step out of this door in your life!"

"When my brother wakes up, none of you will be able to escape!"

Xu Xiangxiang vented her anger outside before returning to her room in anger.

"Mom, are you really at odds with Miss Ma? Aren't you afraid she'll come for revenge?"

Old Mrs. Sun’s expression was equally grim.

Naturally, she didn't want to offend Xu Xiangxiang. After all, it was not easy to find such a rich and easy-to-fool sucker.

Who could have expected Xu Xiangxiang to be so incompetent!

Before she could make any more money, she faced the pressure of repaying the debt.

Old Mrs. Sun clapped her hands regretfully: "Never mind, at least she was quite generous. The money she gave us was enough for us to escape to Huizhou."

Old Mrs. Sun was unwilling to be at the mercy of Sun Wan for long. If it were not necessary for her survival, she would not want to have anything to do with that unfilial daughter who did not care about her mother at all.

Old Mrs. Sun had already planned a way out in her mind.

"The village chief said that after passing Tuzhou, we will reach Huizhou. Let's sneak out today, buy some dry food, rent a car, and head straight to Huizhou!"

"We will never serve those country bumpkins again!"

As soon as these words were spoken, everyone else was excited.

Along the way, they suffered terribly under the oppression of the people in Darong Village for food and water.

At a command from Old Lady Sun, everyone quietly left the inn that afternoon while the waiter was taking a nap.

Even the remaining room fee has not been settled.

After leaving the inn, they excitedly ran to the grain store to buy some food for the journey.

Unexpectedly, just after turning out of a street, I saw from afar a young master with several servants harassing a passing woman and speaking frivolously.

"My beauty, please don't hide. I'd like you to have some tea. How about that?"

Seeing this familiar scene, Old Lady Sun narrowed her eyes and said, "Wife, why do I feel that this guy looks familiar?"

Song Ping looked in the direction he was going and clapped her hands as soon as she saw him. "Isn't this the dandy boy who teased Xu Xiangxiang and severely injured her third brother?"

"Mom, let's go around. The shop owner said this guy is the son of Sima from Tuzhou!"

When Old Lady Sun heard this, her eyes rolled.

She smiled sinisterly and instead of dodging, she walked forward with a swagger.

"I've met the young master."

Jiang Mingyu heard the voice and turned his head in displeasure. Seeing a ragged old woman, he waved his hand in disdain and drove her away: "Where did you come from, beggar woman? Get out of here!"

Old Mrs. Sun looked slightly embarrassed.

But she still endured Jiang Mingyu's disgusted gaze and forced a smile, "I'm not a beggar."

"I have come to see you, sir, to tell you something urgent."

"Oh?"

Jiang Mingyu became interested: "What urgent matter could you have? Are you so happy to have gotten three steamed buns?"

The servants around burst into laughter and looked at Old Lady Sun with sneers.

The smile on Mrs. Sun's face almost froze.

To avoid further ridicule, she didn't intend to keep the question in suspense and hurriedly asked, "Sir, do you remember the girl I met at the inn yesterday?"

"Not only did you injure her brother, but you also left in a hurry because of the fire."

"Actually, that fire was a smokescreen deliberately set by someone behind the scenes. The inn is completely fine, and the little girl is hiding safely in the inn right now!"

Jiang Mingyu's face changed suddenly when he heard this.

He bared his teeth, his face twisted into a sinister grin: "Well, these bastards actually dare to play this trick on me!"

"Let's go! Show me which lousy inn dares to go against me!"

Jiang Mingyu was about to take his men away when Old Lady Sun hurried forward to stop him: "Master, there is another important matter!"

"If you have something to say, say it now! If you have something to say, say it now! If you keep on talking, I'll take care of you too!"

Even though Old Lady Sun was the one who tipped off the secret, Jiang Mingyu still despised such a villain and glared at her irritably.

Old Madam Sun cursed inwardly, but she forced a smile on her face: "This matter, I can only discuss with you alone."

"I can guarantee that this news is definitely worth your time!"

Jiang Mingyu stood on a high place, looked down at Old Lady Sun for a moment, and then slowly waved his hand.

The servants beside him immediately understood and respectfully stepped aside. Jiang Mingyu gestured to Old Lady Sun to continue.

Old Mrs. Sun didn't waste any time and directly told Jiang Mingyu everything about Xu Xiangxiang's extraordinary abilities on the official road.

As expected, Jiang Mingyu's expression immediately became serious.

"Are you serious? If you tell me even a single lie, I won't let you off easily!"

"It's absolutely true! Not only did my old eyes see it, but the refugees in the backyard of the inn, under the big banyan tree, and all around saw it with their own eyes. It's absolutely true!"

After hearing this, Jiang Mingyu's heart was ignited with passion. He pondered for a long time, finally made up his mind, and looked at Mrs. Sun with admiration: "You are quite clever, old woman."

Old Mrs. Sun chuckled, her eyes gleaming with greed, and she looked at Jiang Mingyu expectantly.

Jiang Mingyu sneered, took out a silver ingot from his sleeve and threw it on the ground: "Take it, it's your reward."

Old Madam Sun quickly picked up the silver, nodded and bowed, with a flattering look on her face: "Thank you very much, young master, thank you very much!"

Jiang Mingyu waved again, and Old Lady Sun immediately left tactfully.

The servants gathered around and said angrily, "Master, should we capture that little girl?"

"No need!"

Jiang Mingyu waved his hand to stop them: "Send two people to keep an eye on them first, and the rest, follow me back to the mansion."

As soon as he returned to Sima Shang's house, Jiang Mingyu didn't even bother to rest. He went straight to the study to find his father, Jiang Yu, who was practicing calligraphy.

"Father, a great thing is about to happen to our Jiang family!"

Jiang Mingyu's face flushed slightly due to excitement, and he told Jiang Sima the details of Xu Xiangxiang in a few words.
