Rich Peasant Girl: The General's Wife Has Space

Old Mrs. Li's wailing voice paused. What was he saying? Why was it different from what she thought? Was her brother-in-law really going to drive her family away?

This won't do. They haven't even moved into the workshop yet and haven't had meat to eat yet. How can they just leave like this? They had no plans to go back since they came here. They were planning to settle down in Kaoshan Village with their sister's family.

The whole family runs the workshop, and their food and drink are provided by my sister's family. People in the gambling house don't dare to mess with their own granddaughter of the county lady. What a good plan.

Why doesn’t the elder sister respond? I can’t leave. I haven’t enjoyed the blessing yet, so how can I leave?

But no one responded, and she was embarrassed. Old Master Li asked Grandma Xiao with a bad look on his face: "Sister, do you mean to drive us away too?"

Grandma Xiao waved her hands anxiously to indicate that she didn't mean that.

Before she could speak, Grandpa Xiao spoke again: "You don't need to ask her, I have the final say in the family. You haven't forgotten what happened when your eldest sister brought Wan girl to your house to borrow grain, right?"

After these words were spoken, Mr. Li and Mrs. Li looked unnatural and a little embarrassed.

Of course they did not forget that when their eldest sister's family was in a difficult situation, they had to run back to her parents' home to borrow grain. They thought that their eldest sister's family was so poor that they would not be able to pay back the grain they borrowed.

What if he keeps asking for money like a bottomless pit in the future? How will my family live? They have their own difficulties too.

There are so many people in my family who need to feed themselves, how can I lend food to my eldest sister's family?

It’s different now. My eldest sister’s family is rich now, so shouldn’t she take care of her younger brother?

After all, they came from the same mother.

Thinking of this, Mr. Li could sit still even longer, and began to play the emotional card towards Grandma Xiao: "Sister, you know that my family was very large at that time. You had quite a few nephews, and your sister-in-law and I couldn't eat much, so how could we have any extra food to lend to you?"

After saying this, she symbolically wiped away her tears and continued, "Besides, I was raised by my elder sister. When I was little, my parents were too busy to take care of me, so it was my elder sister who brought me up. I will always remember your kindness in my heart."

"I was wrong at the time, but big sister, can you bear to see my family go hungry? I'm not taking advantage of you for nothing. If I can let San'er and Si'er work as managers in the workshop, and let your niece and grandniece work in the workshop, then we can all have a job thanks to you."

After hearing what her brother said, Grandma Xiao moved her lips, but didn't know what to say for a moment.

It was indeed she who raised her younger brother. Although she was heartbroken that he did not lend her food, people are all made of flesh and blood. After all, he is her biological brother. How could she really hold a grudge against him?

But she felt something was not right when her brother said about joining the workshop to be a manager. He clearly said that he wanted to work in the workshop and asked her to talk to the second brother.

How come you want to be the manager of a workshop now?

Although she didn't understand the situation, she knew that being the manager of a workshop was not easy. How could her nephew, who couldn't read a single word, be the manager?

Besides, the workshop is no longer controlled by the old couple. She agreed to plead for her brother to work in the workshop because she was angry at Liu's indulgence in life, and helping her brother was another reason.

She couldn't help but look at her granddaughter, only to see Xiao Wanjing sitting there with a slight smile on her face, but the smile was cold.

When Mr. Li saw his eldest sister looking at his granddaughter, he felt a little dissatisfied. What's the matter? A junior has to have the final say on such a small matter?

Old Mrs. Li was also unhappy. The eldest sister was too unhappy. They were supposed to work for her, not eat and drink for free.

Seeing everyone looking at her, Xiao Wan was not in a hurry. She leaned back, relaxed her body, and then spoke.

"This uncle, right? You don't have to bother my grandmother. This workshop is the property of the second branch of the Xiao family, and it was established by me, the county lord."

"Our Xiao family has already split up, so the second branch has its own affairs. If anyone wants to enter my workshop, I won't be able to handle it."

While Xiao Wan was speaking, everyone in the room quieted down, wanting to hear what Xiao Wan had to say.

When Mr. Li heard this, he couldn't stand it anymore. Oh, a junior dared to speak to him like this, it was really lawless.

What's wrong with the county lady? Isn't she also his junior?

"You, how can you be so rude, elder sister? Are you going to just stand by and watch a junior like you talk to me like that?" Old Master Li's hands were shaking with anger.

Old Lady Li quickly calmed her husband down, glared at Xiao Wan fiercely, and said to Grandma Xiao, "Big sister, look how angry your brother is. How can you look down on us poor relatives just because you became the county lady?"
