Chapter 156: Building a High Wall

Guo's sister-in-law said to the second son's family, "Isn't Jianjun too good to these two children? When he made new clothes for them, he didn't even think about his nephew, but he doted on those two kids. What's the difference between him and his own son?"

“That’s right, the whole village is talking about it. If I didn’t know better, I would have thought it was his son, he’s so concerned about him,” said Guo Ersao.

"Alright, you two are at it again, gossiping like old women. Have you forgotten how good Jianjun has been to you? Chengcai saved Zhuzi, that's a life-saving grace, and you're arguing about it? Second son, think about how many good things Jianjun gave you when you gave birth. People can't be ungrateful," Aunt Guo said angrily, looking at them.

The two of them felt that this was unreasonable, so they both lowered their heads and kept quiet, continuing with their own work.

After Qin Youfu finished building his house, he took advantage of his parents' absence, grabbed his own pots, pans, and grain, and left. He knew what kind of people his parents were, so he left as quickly as possible.

When Qin Youfu's mother returned home to cook, she noticed that one of the ladles was missing and felt something was wrong. She stopped cooking and rushed to look for things in the house, even a broom was missing. She then looked for grain and found that a lot of it was also missing. She was so angry that she almost fainted.

After catching her breath, she hurriedly went to call for help: "Dad, a lot of our things are missing. We've been robbed. Is it Qin Youfu, that heartless man? I haven't seen him come back yet," Aunt Qin shouted.

“Go find him. That brat is getting too big for his britches. He dares to touch things without our permission,” Qin Youfu’s father said angrily.

"Let's go now. The house is just finished, and we're about to come over. I was originally thinking of taking some money, but I didn't expect Liang Tiantian's mother to take the money. We've really gotten a great deal this time."

The two men stormed off with their things to Qin Youfu's house. The neighbors, who were just getting ready to go home for dinner, saw the couple and knew things were about to get out of hand. They all decided to go and watch the commotion.

They knew how cunning Old Lady Qin was. When Old Madam Qin was still alive, there were people who could keep her in check, but now that the old lady was gone, she had become even more arrogant.

"Hey, look at those two, all angry. Are they going to go find someone?"

"I think we should skip cooking and go see what's going on. This day is going to be really interesting."

"I think it's a good idea. It's fine to cook later. This is a good opportunity to see what they're up to, so we can promote it for her tomorrow."

"I have a feeling that this person is looking for trouble because they saw that the rich man's house was built. I heard Liang Tiantian say that it was Old Madam Qin who made this decision."

"Really? At first, Old Mrs. Qin was quite satisfied with this rich woman, but now that there's Wild Vegetable Mother as a comparison, the conflicts have arisen since Wild Vegetable Mother separated from the family."

"This old lady has this trick up her sleeve, she's pretty clever, deliberately trying to disgust this rich woman, haha."

The group of middle-aged women around them started gossiping, since everyone was eager to see what was going on.

"Let's go, let's go take a look."

This guy, other families in the village had just started cooking when they saw Qin Youfu's parents walking angrily ahead with some things in their hands. A little while later, they saw a group of aunties and young wives from the village following behind.

This puzzled those cooking at home. What was going on? Why were so many people heading that way? What were they doing? Was it a meeting?

Zhang Tingting and her husband had also heard about this. They thought it was a team meeting, so they went to check it out, dressed themselves, and took their children to the meeting.

This guy, Qin Youfu's yard is built very high, twice as high as everyone else's in the village. Everyone who saw it was so shocked that their mouths dropped open.

It's not for any other reason than that Qin Youfu is wary of his parents. Now the two of them can only knock on the door; they can't climb over the wall—it's just too high.

The two had only been there a short time when they saw so many people following them. They were surprised, but then they thought it would be a good opportunity to let the villagers judge the matter. They believed that the house should be theirs to live in.

Good heavens! The villagers were astonished by the height of the wall. From the outside, they couldn't see the houses inside the courtyard at all. This was the first of its kind in the village.
