Qin Wen took the fifteen cents and ran quickly towards the old house. It was not dark yet and he could feel a cool breeze as he walked on the road.

Everyone in the old house was sitting in the yard, some were chopping wood, some were washing clothes, some were mending clothes, they were chatting while working and laughing.

"Grandma!" Qin Wen shouted at the top of his voice.

"Xiao Wen." Old Lady Qin smiled when she saw him. "Why are you here at this hour? Come in quickly. I'll get you something to eat."

"No need, grandma." Qin Wen took out the string of copper coins from his pocket and said, "Mom asked me to bring Erya's wages, borrow a few wooden barrels, and take back the bowls I brought back earlier."

Qin Wen finished speaking in one breath without even taking a breath.

"Speak slowly, it's not a pressing matter." The old lady took the string of money, counted out six cents and gave them to Erya, and took the rest into the room and put them away.

Erya just took the copper coin and turned around to give it to her mother Jiang. Jiang took it with a smile and put it in her pocket, not forgetting to leave one for Erya.

"Don't carry so much money on your child. I'll give you one penny, and I'll save the rest for you. Tomorrow, when you work for your Third Aunt, you must work hard, okay?"

"I understand, Mom." Erya nodded obediently.

Seeing the few coins in Jiang's purse, Chen felt a little jealous. Originally, this money should have belonged to their second wife, but it was given away to the first wife for nothing.

Suddenly, he spoke in a somewhat sarcastic tone: "Third sister-in-law is really generous. She can earn so much money by helping with odd jobs. She doesn't know how to help her family even though she has money. She only cares about having fun. I can't earn this little money even if I work in the fields every day..."

Old Mrs. Qin heard these words just after she hid the copper coins and came out. This second daughter-in-law is really stupid. She has scolded her so many times, but she still doesn't learn her lesson.

He immediately said coldly: "That's what they earned with their own ability. Why are you jealous? If you have the ability, go and earn it yourself."

When Chen heard that her mother-in-law was so disrespectful to her, she felt even more upset and immediately turned around and walked into the inner room.

Old Lady Qin looked at her from behind and snorted coldly. Remembering that Xiaowen still needed to borrow something, she immediately said, "Shouren, Shouyi, go help Xiaowen get the wooden barrel and bowls."

In the past, the old lady would definitely not dare to lend her anything, for fear that she would sell it to support her parents' family.

But recently, the third son's wife has really changed a lot. She has helped the village a lot and sends food to her family every now and then.

She is willing to lend this bucket.

Chen, who was sitting in the inner room, was unhappy when she heard this and immediately ran to the door: "Mom, now that the wooden barrel has been borrowed, how are we going to fetch water to drink?"

Just as Old Lady Qin was about to lose her temper, Qin Shouyi spoke first, "Didn't we just bring back two large jars of water this morning? Isn't that enough for you to drink?"

Chen's face turned ashen with anger.

Although Qin Wen didn't say what the wooden barrel was going to be used for, one could easily guess that it was definitely going to be used for some business. Since he had borrowed her wooden barrel, he had to pay some rent as a token of his appreciation.

As a result, before the mother-in-law could say anything, she was blocked by this idiot in her own family.

Seeing that her proposal failed, Chen turned around and went back to the house.

"You bitch, if you have nothing to do, just mend my clothes. They are so torn that they are almost showing my butt cracks." Qin Shouyi scolded her outside the house: "How can you be a wife like this..."

Chen sat on the bed and felt heartbroken listening to the scolding outside.

This man is such a jerk. I gave birth to a son and a daughter for him. At least he has both a son and a daughter. Even if he has no credit, he has worked hard. But he doesn't even give himself face. When my son grows up and becomes successful, I'll see who dares to be mean to her.

Outside the house, Shouren and Shouyi had already taken all four buckets in the house and were about to help him deliver them home when they were rejected by Qin Wen.

"Uncle, Uncle, I can take it home myself, so I won't bother you."

After saying that, Qin Wen put the bowl in his arms into the bucket, and ran home carrying the bucket.

At this time, at the gate of the Yun family courtyard, a figure tiptoed towards the courtyard wall and stood on tiptoe to look into the house. There were two large pots burning in the kitchen. No one knew what was inside, and only vague voices could be heard.

There was still a pile of unprocessed vegetables piled up inside the far gate. Aunt Fugui looked around but had no idea what business they were doing.

At this moment, Qin Wen had just walked to the door of his house with the bucket in his hand. Just as he was about to push the door open, he saw her looking around and staring at her with a puzzled look on her face: "Aunt Fugui, what are you doing at my door?"

Aunt Fugui smiled as soon as she saw someone around: "I just dug up some vegetables, and I wanted to ask if your mother would accept them?"

Yun Zhenzhen heard the sound, walked out of the house, took the vegetables from her backpack and weighed them, which weighed a full six pounds.

She took out three cents from her purse and handed it over. Even after receiving the money, Aunt Fugui showed no intention of leaving.

"Sister Qin, I was ignorant before and always opposed you, but believe me, ever since you saved my Fuguier last time, our whole family has been so grateful to you that I wanted to find an opportunity to thank you."

Yun Zhenzhen tilted her head and glanced at him twice, then said calmly, "I saved your man, and you came empty-handed? Just the gift is enough, you don't have to come in person."

"Uh..." Aunt Fugui's face froze for a moment, as if she didn't expect her to be so disrespectful.

Yun Zhenzhen just watched her act like this: "If you just came to say thank you, I received it, but I wouldn't let you stay overnight..."

After saying that, he prepared to close the gate.

"Wait a minute." Aunt Fugui directly put her foot against the door and sighed, "Sister Qin, I just have a little thing that I want to talk to you about... I see that your business is quite profitable, so I was wondering if you could take me under your wing and let me help out. You don't have to pay more, just the twenty cents Aunt Zhao gives you."

Ah--

You dare to ask for twenty cents? Aunt Zhao only pays twenty cents for so much work in a day, and you just ask for it.

Yun Zhenzhen rejected it directly: "I can't make more than 20 cents a day from this business. You should find another job."

This aunt has been targeting me from the very beginning and causing all kinds of trouble. How could I possibly let her help me? That person must be crazy.

She simply turned around and closed the door, and it was done smoothly and in one go.

Aunt Fugui gritted her teeth outside the door and said that she couldn't earn more than 20 cents a day. She had already inquired about it and found that the salary given to Zhao Cuihua next door was that much. It was obvious that she didn't want to take her with her.

I don't care.

Pooh--

As he said this, he walked to the side. After taking a few steps, he was pulled into a corner by a force. When he looked closely, he saw that it was Zhang Qiang, the rogue in the village.
