Taking away my family's luck? I won't stand it!
Chapter 29 Want, Desire
"Wait a minute." Old Mrs. Liu called out to him.
Ali turned to look at Old Lady Liu in confusion and asked, "Auntie, is there anything else?"
Old Lady Liu said with a smile: "Young man, you haven't had breakfast yet, right? I still have some breakfast left here, if you don't mind..."
Before she even finished her words, Ali couldn't wait to say, "Haha, I don't mind. Thank you, Auntie."
Ali happily walked away with a big bowl of sweet potato milk.
The servants swallowed their saliva and finally got a small bowl to take away.
"Mom, please take out the five hundred taels of silver and let us see it!" The third daughter-in-law looked at the wooden box in Old Lady Liu's arms with envy.
I didn't think much about why Ali sent me five hundred taels of silver.
Yuan Lao Da, Yuan Lao Si, Yuan Lao San and the others had guessed most of the situation and understood that Old Lady Liu must have given the elixir to the people on the carriage.
Old Mrs. Liu glanced at the third son's wife, opened the wooden box, took out a stack of banknotes, counted them, and found there were five.
"This is the first time I've seen a hundred-liang silver note in my life!" exclaimed the third son's wife.
The same is true for the Yuan family.
Although Old Lady Liu was also very excited, she didn't show it on her face. She calmly put the banknote away and said, "Hurry up and have breakfast. Didn't you hear that young man just say we'll leave in half an hour?"
Seeing that Old Lady Liu had no intention of dividing the banknotes, the third daughter-in-law raised her voice a little to vent her dissatisfaction, "Mom, these banknotes belong to everyone. It's unreasonable not to share some of them, isn't it?"
"What? Are you waiting for me to die so that you can divide the family property? I tell you, as long as I'm alive, I have the final say on the money!" Old Mrs. Liu snorted coldly and glanced at the third son's wife.
Seeing his mother getting angry, Yuan Lao San pulled his wife with a sullen face and said, "Shut up!"
This banknote was obtained because of Yaoyao. Mother did nothing wrong. Whether they divide it or not, there is no reason for them to think about the money.
Seeing Yuan Lao San's cowardly look, his wife doubted her own judgment for the first time, "Useless thing, what use is there for you!"
You don’t even want the money, that’s five hundred taels!
Ye Wan was packing up his things when he heard the third daughter-in-law's words. He glanced at her indifferently and said, "Say that again? Be careful or I'll rip your mouth off!"
Don't be fooled by her gentle appearance. Anyone who has come into contact with Ye Wan knows what kind of hot temper lies beneath her gentle appearance. Otherwise, Old Lady Liu would not have asked a matchmaker to bring her and Boss Yuan together.
As the eldest sister-in-law, it is not good to be too soft-tempered.
When Old Lady Liu is not at home, Ye Wan is the head of the family, and all the sisters-in-law have to listen to her.
The third son's wife had only been married for a few months, but she had already suffered several losses in front of the eldest sister-in-law. She was the type of person who did what she said.
After hearing Ye Wan's words, he became obedient.
In addition to sending over five hundred taels of silver notes, Ali also sent over two pieces of brocade of excellent material, four boxes of chestnut cakes and three boxes of peach cakes, one hundred kilograms of rice and fifty kilograms of flour.
Old Mrs. Liu touched the red brocade, which was slippery and the color looked festive.
Old Mrs. Liu planned to use these two pieces of fabric to make some beautiful dresses for her precious granddaughter, and no one could think of leaving the fabric for her granddaughter.
This made the third daughter-in-law very jealous. She felt that her mother-in-law was biased to the point of being blatant!
Yuan Laoer moved these things onto the carriage.
"The second son's wife and Guoan and Guowang will ride in a horse-drawn carriage, and the old man, the eldest son's wife, the third son's wife and Guoping and Guoxing will ride in an ox cart." Old Lady Liu made the arrangements.
Shen Chulan needs to breastfeed, so riding in a carriage is just right for her.
"Finally, I don't have to walk." The third son's wife happily climbed onto the ox cart and sat there carefree.
After walking for almost a month, my shoes were worn out.
Old Lady Liu helped Shen Chulan into the carriage and was stunned by the layout inside.
Silk-style sheets, silky and cool quilts, and exquisite snacks placed on the pearwood table.
In the eyes of wealthy people, these things are just very ordinary things.
But in the eyes of the Yuan family, that was unthinkable.
Several people sat in the carriage and didn't dare to move.
Yaoyao blinked her eyes and babbled happily.
Dancing and playing with saliva on the crib.
Old Lady Liu leaned over to take a look and smiled, "Yaoyao likes it here, right?"
Yaoyao grinned, revealing her pink gums, and nodded with an "ah ah ah" sound.
It’s so cool, I don’t have to stay in the sun anymore, I’m so happy!
Yaoyao's babbling baby language could be heard from the carriage.
......
Ali walked back to the carriage carrying a large bowl of sweet potato milk, sat on the shaft, scooped a spoonful with a wooden spoon and was about to put it to his mouth when Nanny Nan's surprised voice came from inside the carriage.
"Master is awake!"
Ali quickly put down the bowl and lifted the curtain.
Nanny Nan helped Xiao Ci lean on the pillow. She had bright eyes, white teeth, red lips and delicate facial features, as if she was a puppet carefully carved by Nuwa, with a smile on her childish face.
"Madam Nan, I'm fine."
"You said you were fine, but I was scared to death. How could I face your mother if something happened to you?" Nanny Nan was crying, her voice filled with fear.
"Okay, Ci'er just woke up, don't scare him." Lu Jiu said with a smile.
Nanny wiped away her tears and said, "I'm just happy!"
"Uncle, those people..." Xiao Ci frowned.
Lu Jiu touched his head and said, "Don't be afraid, Ci'er. I have already dealt with those people."
"I'm not afraid, they deserve to die!" A hint of cruelty flashed across Xiao Ci's young face.
It's like a wolf cub showing its sharp fangs.
"Great, young master, you finally woke up. It seems that the Yuan family's medicine is really effective!" Ali said.
"What kind of elixir?" Xiao Ci asked in confusion.
He had felt like he was in dire straits last night, his whole body aching, he couldn't speak, and his eyes felt as heavy as a thousand pounds and he couldn't open them. It wasn't until he felt like he was in a warm ocean that he felt like he had regained control of his body.
Seeing the confusion in his eyes, Lu Jiu replied, "It's the Yuan family who traveled with us. Seeing that you were injured and unconscious, the Yuan family sent you the elixir passed down from their ancestors. You were able to wake up thanks to the elixir they gave you. When you recover, you must thank them for saving your life."
It turned out that he was saved by the elixir that someone generously gave him.
Xiao Ci nodded, "I understand, uncle."
Lu Jiu raised his hand and rubbed his soft head, with a gentle smile on his lips.
Nanny Nan brought a bowl of fish porridge and scooped a spoonful to Xiao Ci's mouth, "Master, you have been in a coma for two days without a drop of water. This is the freshly cooked fish porridge. Eat it to warm your stomach."
Xiao Ci smelled the fishy smell in the porridge, frowned and turned his head away.
"What smells so good?" Xiao Ci moved his nose and smelled the rich milky aroma in the air.
Ali was holding the sweet potato milk and putting it into his mouth with a wooden spoon when he saw Xiao Ci's dark eyes looking at him.
Those eyes, one with wanting, the other with wanting, the delicate face had the word want written all over it.
"Master, do you want to eat?"
Ali saw Xiao Ci nod, his heart bleeding, but when he saw Xiao Ci's eyes staring at him, he closed his eyes and pushed the bowl over.
"Master, you eat!"
Nanny Nan reached out to take it. The sweet potato milk, which looked great and had a rich milky aroma, made her appetite surge just by looking at it.
They had eaten everything, but this one obviously whetted their appetite.
Xiao Ci couldn't stop eating after taking a bite. No matter how steady a boy of seven or eight years old looked, he was at the age where he loved to eat.
After a while, a bowl of rice went into Xiao Ci's stomach.
Nanny Nan was extremely happy. This was the first time she saw Xiao Ci being so greedy. After a moment's thought, she said, "Young Master loves the food cooked by the Yuan family. Go ask the Yuan family if they're willing to help him cook for himself every day. We'll provide the ingredients and pay for it."
Ali looked at the empty bowl and nodded sullenly.
He hasn't taken a bite yet and doesn't know how it tastes.
