Qin wiped away her tears and pleaded pitifully with Tian Sangui. After all, they were her elders; she couldn't be so heartless.

Tian Sangui laughed: "Ha, Second Aunt, when you tore up our quilts, did you ever think about leaving us a single quilt?"

"this..."

Tian Sangui's words silenced her for a long time.

If it was her mother-in-law who did it, and she wasn't involved, why is she targeting them?

Tian Sangui didn't know exactly who it was, but it was the old house.

"Uncles, let our demolished house remain standing. Starting today, please replace it with an adobe house and a wall around the yard."

The men mentioned initially thought that Tian Sangui had changed his mind and was showing them compassion, and that he had forgiven them so readily.

Unexpectedly, she was planning to move to a different house.

"Want to exchange a thatched house for an adobe house? Dream on, I won't do it!" Old Tian was the first to object.

Making clay bricks is a real hassle; you could easily ruin your hands. He'd have to be crazy to agree to that.

"Third Uncle, you need to understand, I'm explaining this to you, not discussing it with you!"

Tian Sangui slammed his axe on the ground, his face stern and his tone cold and hard.

Tian Laosan was stubborn by nature and wanted to get up and cause trouble for Tian Sangui, but fortunately, Liu Shi, who was beside him, held him back.

Tian Sangui was not like the Yun family; there was no kinship between them, so he had no scruples when it came to fighting.

They'll be the ones who suffer in the end. Why does that third brother always act like a clueless coward at crucial moments?

Fortunately, it took Liu some effort and a while to finally subdue the stubborn donkey.

But Tian Laowu was unwilling. He was a scholar with delicate skin, how could he do such dirty work? Besides, he still had to go to school.

"Mother, your son still has to go to school. How can I have time to build a mud-brick house? If my studies are delayed, I won't be able to pass this year's provincial examination."

Tian Laowu said angrily in Yun's arms.

When Madam Yun heard this, she was furious. No one could stop her son from taking the imperial examination.

“Your fifth uncle still needs to go to school, and your three uncles are enough to handle the house.” Yun Shi was implicitly bowing to Tian Sangui and pleading for her youngest son.

The sons, especially the third son, stared at Yun Shi in disbelief. What did she mean by saying that the three of them were enough? Did the fifth son not get to eat the meat?

Why should the fifth son be given special privileges?

"Fifth brother, your third brother sees it clearly. Mother made all the meat for you tonight out of love for you. You can't just eat it and leave."

Of all the cunning people, Tian Laowu was the most shrewd. He never missed out on any good food, but when it came to work, he would use his studies as an excuse to run away faster than a rabbit.

"What, you dare to talk back to me now? You think you're so tough just because I gave you a few more pieces of meat? You bastard, don't come here to freeload when your fifth son becomes a high-ranking official!"

Upon hearing Yun's words, Tian Laosan, who had been angrily complaining about the unfairness, now buried his head in silence like a deflated rooster.

Because he knew in his heart that his fifth brother had been a natural scholar since childhood, and there was no guarantee that he wouldn't one day become the top scholar in the imperial examination.

He was hoping to rise in rank along with his cronies, so he couldn't afford to offend the fifth brother because of the fourth brother's affair. He was just angry about it earlier.

Tian Sangui watched secretly, and couldn't help but find it a little funny. If such a person became an official, it would be considered a great and just official if he didn't cause trouble for the people.

Since Madam Yun had spoken up, she didn't expect this nagging fifth uncle to do any work, lest she give him any leverage against her later.

"Then I'll have to trouble you three uncles. I'll give you seven days. I'll come back in seven days. If the house isn't fixed, I'll definitely come back to cause trouble for you. I might not be as merciful as I am now then!"

She was saying harsh words, but she was actually trying to deter them from coming over to harass their family every few days.

Tian Da and his men had already packed up and were waiting at the gate. Tian Sangui casually took all the bowls and chopsticks from the square table. Since the house had been smashed to pieces, why spend money when there was something ready?

After Tian Sangui left, they slowly got up. The third brother hurriedly went out to check the damaged gate, knowing he wouldn't be able to sleep safely tonight.

The saddest thing is that after building the mud house in seven days and finally getting my hands white and tender, they're now going to become mangled hands.

"It's infuriating! They can't live in thatched houses anymore, but she has the nerve to ask for mud houses!" Yun muttered unhappily.

"Oh, my quilt! It was a brand new one my mother made for me. That damned Tian Sangui, why doesn't she just die?"

When Wang entered her side room, she saw that all the bedding on the bed was gone. Heartbroken, she sat down on the ground and wept bitterly, pointing at the sky and cursing Tian Sangui.

Both Qin and Liu returned to their rooms, where they found themselves in the same state of mind, their hearts aching with pain, crying and cursing Tian Sangui.

But how happy they were at Tian Sangui's house back then, even feeling extremely happy and pained, and now that it's happening to them, they can't stand it?

Tian Sangui was just imitating them and then taking it out on himself.

There was no bed at home, and Tian Laowu didn't want to stay a moment longer. After a hasty farewell to Yun Shi, he took five hundred copper coins from her and went back to the school to stay.

Tian Laowu's indifference touched the hearts of his older brothers. When this younger brother finally achieves academic success, will he still remember them, his older brothers?

After a night of fussing, Tian Sangui and his family rushed to the town's shops with their bags and packages.

"Mother, don't cry. Everything has been resolved. We'll just have to make do at the shop for a few days. Soon we'll have a new house to live in. A mud house is much sturdier than a thatched house. No one can knock it down anymore."

Zhang was still a little worried, so Tian Sangui tidied up the bed and came over to comfort her.

She never dreamed that the people in the old house were so wicked, leaving her no way out.

Ultimately, she was simply being considerate of Tian Lao Si, thinking about the hardships he had endured under the Yun family, which is why she begged her brother and sister-in-law to drop the idea of ​​a bride price.

Unexpectedly, Yun Shi got the benefit but acted innocent. At first, I thought that Yun Shi was just gossiping in the village and that she was not a bad person.

It wasn't until tonight that she realized she was wrong. A person's evil knows no bounds. As long as she still hates you, she will always find ways to torment you.
