The quality of these stacks of paper is so good, the ink sticks inside must be good too!

She was recognized by Xie Youchang because of the smell of the inferior ink. At that time, she secretly vowed that she would buy her third brother the best writing brushes, ink, paper and inkstones when she had money!

Before she even had a chance to get rich, she already had the finest writing brushes, ink, paper, and inkstones!

This alone is enough to bring tears to Song Yanyan's eyes.

People really should do good deeds!

Song Xingming's face also showed some emotion.

He solemnly bowed to Hu Bo.

Uncle Hu quickly returned the greeting.

Tian Denghua was both shocked and conflicted as she watched.

The Su family is really good at giving gifts!

Everything was delivered to her heart's content!

But these gifts, these gifts are too much!

The sixth box contained a thick stack of hides, each one intact; at a glance, it contained both sheepskin and rabbit skin.

Tian Denghua liked it very much and immediately planned to buy a fur coat for everyone in the family.

Song Yanyan was also very happy.

Her mother doted on her and put fur collars on the collars and cuffs of her winter clothes to keep warm, but her mother herself couldn't bear to use them.

With so many furs available now, everyone can use them!

The seventh box contained a set of blue and white porcelain bowls and plates wrapped in red silk. They were both exquisite and practical, and even the lanterns were dazzling!

Song Yanyan was also overjoyed.

The bowls in her house have been used for more than ten years, and many of them are chipped or broken!

We have new bowls and plates now!

The eighth box, as the final piece, was lined with red wedding paper, and on top of that paper were strips of red ribbon tied with lucky money!

A string of lucky money coins contains about fifty copper coins, and this box of lucky money coins must be worth at least ten taels of silver!

When this box of lucky money came out, everyone's eyes widened even more!

In an instant, the villagers who had come to watch the spectacle were in an uproar!

The Su family is far too generous with their gifts!

Tian Denghua withdrew her somewhat dazed eyes, swallowed hard, and declined with great difficulty, saying, "No, no, this is too, too precious, we can't..."

It has to be said that the Su family is really something else. Every gift they give is extremely practical, nothing is superfluous, and everything they give is something that the Song family can actually use.

Everyone who sees this praises the Su family for their competence!

Uncle Hu cupped his hands in a respectful gesture to Tian Denghua, saying, "Please don't stand on ceremony, Madam."

He lowered his voice, "I know that Madam is a very honest person and may feel that the gift is a bit too much. Actually, it is the intention of our Su clan elders. Firstly, Seventh Master is the only one left in his lineage. We are truly grateful to your son and daughter for saving Seventh Master's life; secondly, with such a generous gift, if Seventh Master encounters difficulties again in the future, the villagers will probably be more willing to help him."

Upon hearing Uncle Hu's words, Tian Denghua paused, recalling a long-forgotten story her brother had told her about buying a horse's bones for a thousand pieces of gold.

Although it doesn't quite fit the current situation, the core idea is similar.

Tian Denghua immediately understood the Su family's good intentions.

It's nothing more than openly and honestly using money to sway people's hearts.

Tian Denghua wasn't one to mince words, and she immediately made a decision: "Okay, I understand."

A smile appeared on Uncle Hu's rugged face, which resembled that of a bandit leader. He was about to say a few more polite words to take his leave when he heard an old, anxious voice from outside:

"Give me, let me!"

"Don't push me! I'm Tian's mother-in-law!"

—It's Grandma Song.

Then we saw Old Mrs. Song, without any attempt to hide her greed, push through the crowd to the front, grinning from ear to ear as she lunged at the eight boxes.

Her eyes were gleaming with greed as she touched this box one minute and that box the next.

The drool in his mouth was almost dripping onto the box!

She initially thought it was all an act!

But when she came over and saw the scene, she immediately realized that the poor Tian family couldn't possibly afford to put on such a show!

That old man Su's life is really valuable!

Song Chengzong squeezed in as well, and his eyes lit up when he saw the eight boxes: "Grandma, we're going to be rich now!"

Grandma Song's mouth was practically stretched to her ears in a wide grin.

Uncle Hu recognized Song Chengzong and instinctively disliked him. He frowned, but still politely asked Tian Denghua, "Madam, who are these two?"

Tian Denghua felt a throbbing vein on her forehead.

She took a deep breath: "That's my mother-in-law, and my third uncle's son."

Tian Denghua added indignantly, "They've already separated!"

Uncle Hu glanced at the expressions on Song Yanyan and Song Xingming's faces again, and he understood what was going on.

Old Mrs. Song was calling to the servants, "Hey, you lot, get up and move around, carry all these boxes to my house!"

Tian Denghua laughed, but out of the corner of her eye she saw her daughter, Little Firecracker, rolling up her sleeves as if she was about to rush up and fight her grandmother. Her heart skipped a beat and she quickly pulled Little Firecracker back.

It's alright for her, as the mother, to fight with Old Mrs. Song; their relationship was already like that anyway.

Song Yanyan is still Grandma Song's granddaughter, no matter what!

Does she even care about her reputation? Does she still want to get married?!

Tian Denghua gave Song Yanyan a warning look, and Song Yanyan pouted and obediently followed behind Tian Denghua.

Tian Denghua shouted in a loud voice, "Oh my, I was wondering who it was! Someone just delivered a gift, and who's so shameless as to covet it and even demand to take it to their house! ...Oh, it's Mother! Mother, what brings you here today? Let me think... Last time Mother came, she scolded our Xingming for wasting money on education and told us to stop studying and save the money for Song Chengzong's education. This time, Mother is even worse; she's going to take the whole box away!"

Tian Denghua showed no respect for Old Lady Song whatsoever. There were already many villagers watching the spectacle, and upon hearing this, they all started pointing and gossiping.

Grandma Song was furious, anxious, and annoyed, and she started throwing a tantrum: "Don't worry about what I did here! You killed my son, so how can I be nice to you?! If my son were still alive, he would definitely have taken all this to give to me as filial piety!"

Tian Denghua sneered: "Oh, so you know your son is gone! With your son gone, have you ever taken care of us five orphans and widows all these years? Not to mention anything else, just take my Xingming and Yanyan for example. They saved that old man Su, and your good grandson Song Chengzong brings people to laugh at my Xingming every day, complaining that my Xingming saved someone and that it was shameful. I don't even bother to say anything!"

Grandma Song put her hands on her hips and said, "So what! Did our Chengzong say something wrong!"

Uncle Hu's eyes flickered. He stepped forward and instructed the servants to close the boxes: "Help Madam Tian carry these boxes into the house."

Grandma Song was displeased and stretched out her arm to stop them: "What are you doing? What are you doing?!"

Tian Denghua stood in front of the box, but Old Mrs. Song simply pushed her away!

"Ouch!" Tian Denghua collapsed to the ground and fainted.

"Auntie!"

Song Yanyan rushed over anxiously!
