Taking away my family's luck? I won't stand it!

Chapter 143 Borrowing money to buy land

Qingshui Tower.

Old Mrs. Liu had a fierce face and looked fiercely at Yaoyao who was sitting on the bed sucking her fingers.

"What are you doing crawling out here on your own?"

There was a hint of guilt in Yaoyao's eyes. She scratched her scalp with her chubby hands and decided to play dumb.

"what?"

"Don't play dumb. Did you crawl out and do something bad?" Old Lady Liu didn't buy Yaoyao's nonsense.

God knows how panicked she was when she found out Yaoyao was missing.

Turns out this guy is playing dumb.

Shen Chulan quickly came to Yaoyao's rescue, "Yaoyao must have discovered someone sneaking around to poison the well in our backyard, so she followed them. Yaoyao is such a well-behaved girl, she wouldn't do such a mischievous thing."

"Also, Xiao Hei usually follows Yao Yao closely. If there's any movement, Xiao Hei will be there the first time."

"Isn't that right, Yaoyao?"

Yaoyao looked at her mother with bright eyes and nodded eagerly.

"Ang ang!"

That's right!

Yaoyao gestured with her hands and patted her chest to show that she was very brave just now.

"You, you, I really don't know what to say to you. Don't do this next time. Even if you find out something, you must tell your family. What if you really encounter danger?" Old Mrs. Liu laughed and tapped Yaoyao's forehead.

Yaoyao took the opportunity to hug Old Lady Liu's arm, looked up at her with a sweet smile, and made funny faces to make her happy.

What she did just now was wrong. She won't do it again.

"That well is definitely unusable. Many diners saw what happened today. We can only work hard to fetch water from the big well in the county every day." Yuan Laosi came in with a bowl of water to check the water situation.

Shen Chulan looked at the water and said, "Well, what we need to do now is to pump out all the water in the well and hire someone to clean up the remaining medicine in the well. Just in case, we have to pump out the water in the well every day, at least for a few days."

"I think so too. They must have been very hard-pressed during this period because of the water problem. We have to raise their wages." Yuan Laosi took this into consideration.

Old Lady Liu nodded. "It's time for a wage increase. Carrying water is a job outside of construction, so it should be increased."

Qingshuilou was definitely not going to be open tonight, and there were still a lot of ingredients left in the kitchen. Shen Chulan decided to take a half-day break and let the waiters go to the kitchen to get the ingredients they wanted to take home.

The waiter was naturally happy. The food in Qingshui Tower was usually very good, and they had gained a lot of weight.

Now my family can also enjoy the dishes of Qingshuilou.

Not to mention that the wages at Qingshuilou are higher than those at other restaurants, the boss even gave them New Year's money during the Chinese New Year and other festivals, and their wages were three times more than usual, which made them very happy.

He works very hard and treats the diners as if they were his own mothers, each of them like a walking penny.

After resolving the matter in Qingshui Tower, Old Lady Liu and the others took a carriage back to Lihua Village.

Old Mrs. Shen and Old Mrs. Ye were very surprised to see Shen Chulan and Yuan Laosi come back, and hurriedly asked about the situation.

After asking, they found out that Qingshui Building had been poisoned. The two old ladies were so angry that they sat at the door and cursed the Wang family.

As soon as Shen Chulan returned home, she was taken away by Li Ronghua.

"Sister-in-law, is there something wrong that you pulled me over here?" Shen Chulan looked at Li Ronghua in confusion.

Li Ronghua hesitated for a while, looked at Shen Chulan and decided to speak out what was on his mind.

"Chu Lan, can you lend us some money to buy land and build a house in the village? It's not a big deal to live in your house all the time, right?"

Seeing that his household registration had been moved to Lihua Village but his family did not own a piece of land, Li Huarong became anxious and angry.

Shen Chulan then looked at Li Ronghua seriously. Li Ronghua had just married into the family when she was married out, so she didn't know much about this sister-in-law.

But Li Ronghua was right. It was really inconvenient to live in someone else's house. She had indeed overlooked this point.

At that time, her idea was to let her family stay in her home first, and then make plans slowly.

"Sister-in-law, does my brother know about this?"

Li Ronghua's face turned grim, "I don't know."

"Sister-in-law, let me think about this." Shen Chulan nodded.

Li Ronghua was anxious, "Chu Lan, you won't refuse to help your mother's family, right?"

"Sister-in-law, what you said is a bit harsh. He is my relative, how can I not help him? But I need to discuss the matter of borrowing money with my husband." Shen Chulan frowned, looking unhappy.

With Shen Chulan's words, Li Ronghua felt a little relieved.

Chu Lan is so rich, is it possible to ask her family to pay her back?

In the evening, Shen Chulan took Yuan Laoer to talk about her mother's family.

When Yuan Laoer heard that Shen Chulan wanted to lend money to her mother-in-law's family to buy land and a house, he naturally agreed.

Your wife’s mother is also your mother. Since your mother-in-law is not comfortable staying in the Yuan family, give her money to buy land and a house.

When Shen Chulan saw that her husband agreed to this, she smiled and cried.

The only thing worthwhile in her life was marrying Yuan Lao Er.

After the two of them discussed it, they went to Old Lady Liu's house together.

After hearing the purpose of the two people's visit, Old Lady Liu said that they could decide the matter themselves, and her mother in her natal family was also Yuan Laoer's mother.

Shen Chulan was deeply moved and was about to cry, but Old Lady Liu quickly asked her to take the lead.

She said that they were now able to make money and must have saved a lot of money. If her family wanted to borrow money, they couldn't take it out of her pocket. She said that the money she had on her was to buy gold and silver jewelry for Yaoyao when she grew up.

Shen Chulan nodded repeatedly, that was for sure.

As soon as the two left, Ye Wan also came to Old Lady Liu's room.

My purpose is the same as Shen Chulan's.

Old Lady Liu said the same thing to Ye Wan as she had just said to Shen Chulan.

She also knew that Ye Wan did not work at home and had been taking care of the household affairs. If there was not enough money, she would ask Yuan Laoer and his brothers to contribute together.

After all, housework is still work. Ye Wan takes care of household affairs all day long, so they have to pay for it.

Yuan Lao Er, Yuan Lao San, and Yuan Lao Si had no objections after hearing this, saying that their sister-in-law had been taking care of them all the time and thanked her for her hard work.

When Old Lady Shen found out about this, it was already too late. She glared at Li Ronghua in anger, feeling very disappointed with him.

"You...you...why didn't you discuss this with me?!"

Li Ronghua felt guilty, "I'm just thinking about my family. How can we survive in the village without land? My children won't have to eat!"

"Since you want to borrow money to buy land, you naturally have to write an IOU. You have to pay it back on time so that you can visit relatives in the future." There was no point in saying anything Old Mrs. Shen said now, so she had to resort to this last resort.

Li Ronghua became anxious when she heard this. She had no intention of paying back the money she borrowed from Shen Chulan!
