Qin Yu picked out two hairpins and had the stall owner wrap them up along with the bracelet.

The stall owner nodded happily upon seeing this and held out his hand, saying, "One tael and fifty coins!"

Lu's mother quickly stopped her and stepped forward to haggle with the stall owner.

I finally bought the item for twenty coins.

Qin Yu watched and realized that Lu's mother's bargaining attitude was finally showing some of the vitality she had shown before, so he was happy to watch.

I went to a clothing store and picked out two more outfits for Lu's mother, who was worried that if she wore something too eye-catching, she would be recognized.

In the end, I chose two ready-made garments in brownish-gray.

Before leaving, she picked out two books for Lu Zhou and Lu Xiaoan, and then happily went home!

Lu's mother was overjoyed to receive the new bracelet, and her mouth never stopped smiling the whole way.

The seamstress said, "My daughter-in-law bought it!"

When nosy people asked her where she got the money, she would happily stand and talk to them.

They said Qin Yu was incredibly skilled, that he made food and sold it in town, and that his culinary skills were exceptional.

This time, Qin Yu's name spread throughout the village once again.

Whether it's jealousy or envy, it's self-evident!

Zhu Dalan saw the four people returning home from afar, carrying large and small bags, their eyes filled with a fierce look.

He angrily carried the wooden bucket back to the yard.

Seeing Wu Yong standing in the yard, staring intently at Qin Yu's family, he became even more furious.

"What's so interesting about that? You look like a vixen!"

Having been caught red-handed, Wu Yong couldn't look any further and turned to comfort his wife.

"what happened?"

"What could I possibly do? Ever since you came back, you've been acting like you've lost your soul, just staring at that family all day. What are you looking at? No matter how much you look, you still see that little bitch's face!"

Zhu Dalan was very unconvinced; in her mind, Qin Yu was a little vixen.

All they know how to do is flirt and show off.

"I wasn't looking at her at all!" Wu Yong's eyes darted around.

Zhu Dalan gave him a disdainful look.

She knew all too well what kind of person her husband was.

Don't expose him, just wait for him to continue.

Wu Yong immediately changed the subject, "I saw that Lu Chen's mother was quite ill, but she looks like she's already much better!"

Zhu Dalan also knew that she had seen Lu's mother walking around in the yard a while ago, and thought that Lu Chen was dead and that the old woman wouldn't live much longer!

"Did Lu Chen leave behind a lot of money when he died? I see they bought a lot of things!" Wu Yong muttered.

He guessed that Lu Chenniang's illness had been greatly cured, which must have cost a lot of money.

Seeing how they looked when they came back today, my suspicions only grew stronger!

"Who knows? The other day, that little bitch Qin Yu came back in Lin Erniu's oxcart, carrying a lot of things, the wooden buckets were all heavy! I bet Lu Chenzhen left her some money!"

Zhu Dalan also remembered seeing Qin Yu carrying a lot of things back before.

"Is that really the case?" Upon hearing this, Wu Yong became even more certain of his thoughts.

"So what? Lu Chen hunted a lot when he was alive, and it's only right that he made a lot of money, unlike you..."

Zhu Dalan only whispered the last few words. Wu Yong was someone who couldn't stand harsh words. If she said those words out loud, he might hit her!

Wu Yong heard about the money, but didn't listen to what she said after that.

Looking at Lu Chen's house, which wasn't far from them, their minds became increasingly active.

It feels like there's something elusive in my heart, an unbearable itch.

Even while eating, I was restless, and a bold idea formed in my mind.

On a dark and windy night, he arrived at Wang Erma's house.

At that moment, Wang Erma was venting his anger on the two elderly members of the Wang family.

"Get out of here, you old geezer! You're useless, you don't even want money! The reason I'm still not married is because you're all useless!"

The two elders of the Wang family looked utterly humiliated and didn't dare to utter a single word.

"Son, we're getting old, and your father isn't in good health. Where are we going to earn money?"

The Queen Mother looked helpless and distressed at her old man, but the words she uttered were timid and hesitant.

"I don't care where you get your money, I want it right now! If you weren't capable, you shouldn't have given birth to me. It would have been better to send me to a wealthy family than to have me as your son, you useless old hags!"

Ever since Wang Erma was beaten by Qin Yu last time, he had been in a daze for a while.

I'm even reluctant to recall the scene from that day, always feeling like it was a dream.

For several days afterward, still shaken, he dared not close his eyes at night, for every time he closed them, he saw Qin Yu's murderous gaze.

I don't even dare to go out during the day.

It took three to five days for the condition to improve.

I felt increasingly frustrated, convinced that I must have been negligent that day.

He turned around and vented all his frustration on his parents.

He complained that they were incompetent, didn't provide him with a good life, and had no money. He couldn't even find a wife, which is why he's still single.

He felt increasingly depressed, but he didn't want to go out and earn money, so he could only stay at home and act like a tyrant.

"Brother Wang!" Wu Yong greeted the two elders of the Wang family as soon as he entered the room.

He felt disdain for Wang Erma's attitude towards his parents.

Deep down, I despise his behavior, but I know that if I want to get things done, I have no choice but to go to him.

"Dayong, what brings you here?" Wang Erma was also surprised that Wu Yong had returned, and greeted him with an awkward smile.

"When did you get back? Did you make any money?"

"Where would I be? How much money can I make carrying loads at the docks for a few copper coins? I just wanted to come and complain to you!" Wu Yong said honestly.

"What are you standing there for? Go and get the wine!" With a single glance, Wang Erma immediately ordered his mother to go out and get the wine.

With a troubled expression, Wang's mother touched her sleeve, not daring to spoil his mood, and reluctantly helped Wang's father out.

"No need to be so polite!" Wu Yong said, then plopped down on the stool without any ceremony.

"What have you been busy with lately? I haven't seen you. Have you been hiding something good that you don't want to share with your brother?" Wu Yong said, glancing around as he spoke.

"What good stuff could I possibly have?" Wang Erma said, putting down his chopsticks with a frustrated look. "I'm just anxious. You have a wife, but I don't. Look at me, I'm still a bachelor!"

"Sigh, I'm not as good as you. I have no money, no wife, no children, just two old folks who won't die. Sigh!" Wang Erma said, feeling even more depressed.

"I came here today specifically to talk to you about this!" Wu Yong thought for a moment.

He stood up, looked around the door to make sure no one was there, then closed the door and sat down next to Wang Erma.

He whispered something in Wang Erma's ear.

"Really?" Wang Erma looked incredulous!

"We've been brothers for so long, what would I lie to you about!"
