Seeing that Jiaping and Jiahe were about to start arguing with Liu Jianchang again, Xu Lanzhi smiled and said, "You are both good children. It's your aunt's arrangement that was inappropriate. This is not your fault!"

Tang Chunya snorted coldly and said sarcastically, "Jianchang, did you hear that? Your aunt is rich and powerful now, she doesn't care about that little bit of money, so you're worrying about it for nothing!"

Wang also said, "Jianchang's reminder is right. We need to have a clear understanding of what money should be spent on and what money shouldn't be spent on, otherwise things will get chaotic and it will affect everyone's relationships!"

When it came to the money, Tang Xiahe felt a little unsure. She wasn't sure if Xu Lanzhi had instructed them to spend the money, and with Wang Shi saying this, she felt she had completely lost face.

So Tang Xiahe rolled up her sleeves and started hitting her two sons again!

"You little brats, how have I taught you? I've told you time and again that your aunt is giving you this opportunity because she trusts you immensely, and that you should watch your words and actions. Look at what you've done!"

Jiaping and Jiahe were chased by their mother until they had nowhere to run. They could only plead with Xu Lanzhi for help, looking pitiful: "Auntie, help us! We really didn't waste money!"

Xu Lanzhi was truly amused and exasperated by her two older sisters. It was such a small matter, yet they still hadn't figured it out.

It's a good thing Tang Qiqi wasn't here these past few days, otherwise she probably would have been so angry she'd suffer internal injuries!

Xu Lanzhi went to great lengths to stop Tang Xiahe, and then seriously invited everyone to sit down. She explained why she had asked Jiaping and Jiahe to go to the grain store to inquire about information, which cleared Jiaping and Jiahe of suspicion.

Tang Chunya still didn't understand why she was in such a hurry to get close to the grain store owner when the wheat hadn't even been planted yet.

Wang was also puzzled; why did she have to give gifts when selling grain to others?

Liu Jianchang was even more confused. He was clearly trying to save his aunt money, but she seemed to prefer the two people who squandered his money! m.cascoo.net

However, Xu Lanzhi kept a warm expression and said that this was a misunderstanding. Although the three children had different ways of doing things, it showed that all three children were on the side of the family. Xu Lanzhi rewarded each child with a silver ingot.

She then said to Liu Jianchang, "Jianchang, your aunt thinks you're not very suited to delivering goods outside. How about this, you go to the breeding base and work with your Uncle Zhu and Qingshan to manage the seed base. If the business really expands as Qiqi said, you can take over. This month's salary will be the same as Jiaping's and theirs!"

Upon hearing this, Liu Jianchang was overjoyed. He had been running around outside every day, not eating or sleeping well, and had to act like a grandson in front of those arrogant bosses. He was getting really uncomfortable.

He's a master at housework, and he'd be more than happy to work with the land!

Tang Chunya didn't think so. She always felt that Xu Lanzhi was deliberately targeting their family. Why should Xia He's child be able to eat and drink well outside every day, while her own son was still struggling to make a living in the fields?

Now that Xu Lanzhi's net worth has increased significantly, she no longer dares to be as arrogant and confrontational as before. Her daughter-in-law, daughter, and son-in-law are all waiting to make money with Xu Lanzhi.

So Tang Chunya said with a bitter face, "Lanzhi, can we not let Jianchang go to farm? We've been farmers all our lives, and we're counting on our children to have an easier life. If we have to farm, we might as well go back to farming!"

Xu Lanzhi knew that her sister-in-law had misunderstood again. She explained in a good-natured manner, "Sister, this incident shows that Jianchang doesn't like socializing, but he is honest and principled. When he goes to the planting base, he can set an example and make those who try to cheat and cheat think twice."

Besides, how could I let my nephew do the hard labor himself now? We've already rented too much land, so he's only responsible for assisting Erzhuzi, checking if they're doing a good job, and whether they're slacking off!

Tang Chunya was still not satisfied, so Liu Jianchang quickly said, "Mom, stop arguing. I'm happy to go to the fields. I really understand now. I'm just not as clever as Jiaping and Jiahe. I'm more comfortable in the fields!"

Tang Chunya looked at her good-for-nothing son. Since he had said that, what else could she do? She would just have to accept it.

Wang also knew about this matter, and Xu Lanzhi was caught in the middle between her two sisters-in-law, which put her in a very difficult position.

Now, she should at least act like a matriarch and calm things down. Most importantly, she should let Tang Chunya know that in this world, Xu Lanzhi's word is law.

Wang cleared her throat and said, "Chunya, Xiahe, I'm happy that you can let the children come and help Lanzhi. Firstly, Lanzhi has reliable helpers, and secondly, the children won't be shortchanged!"

Xiahe was right today. We are relatives, we are family. Lanzhi is a woman who runs such a big business all by herself. It's not easy. You, including Qiumei, should help her more. If she is doing well, our family will be doing well. We have enough in the pot, so we don't have to worry about what's missing in the bowl!

From now on, you sisters must work together, and Lanzhi, you too, take good care of your sisters. If anyone tries to cause trouble, don't worry, this old woman won't tolerate even her own family!

After Wang spoke, Tang Chunya fell silent. With Wang's approval, Jia Ping and Jia He's grievances vanished. Liu Jianchang was also overjoyed to be able to help in the fields, a wish fulfilled.

The matter was finally settled. Xu Lanzhi later inquired about the situation at the Ping family's grain store and rice shop.

Because Liu Jianchang was going to help in the fields, and Tang Qingshan was in charge of something, Tang Chunya thought she should ask Qingshan to look after her mentally challenged son. So she went to Tang Qingshan's house.

Unfortunately, Tang Qingshan was not home, so Tang Chunya spoke for a while with Tang Yongnian's wife, Shen, and Tang Qingshan's wife, Zhou.

Shen naturally praised the Wang family for their perseverance and for seeing the light at the end of the tunnel. Although Dongsheng had not yet returned, they were living a prosperous life. She kept praising the Wang family for their good fortune, her words filled with envy!

Tang Chunya said, "Auntie, that's all just appearances. Don't be fooled by the fact that my mother now lives in a big house and the family seems well-off. The one who's in charge is my sister-in-law, Xu Lanzhi!"

Madam Shen flattered her, saying, "With your sister-in-law looking after things outside, your mother only needs to enjoy herself, which is perfect!"

Tang Chunya pouted and said, "Auntie, that's true, but my sister-in-law is a bit simple-minded. She has no concept of money at all. She doesn't care when others squander her money and even praises how well they spend it. It's so frustrating!"

Zhou didn't believe it at all: "Sister Chun Ya, that can't be, everyone says Sister Lan Zhi is shrewd and capable!"

Tang Chunya then recounted, in a more romanticized light, the story of Jia Ping and Jia He indulging in excessive eating and drinking, and how Liu Jianchang had stopped them.

Upon hearing this, Zhou sighed and said, "Sister-in-law Lanzhi is indeed wealthy and powerful, and quite domineering. She even deigned to meet these two brothers!"

Madam Shen chimed in, "Xu Lanzhi must have been the daughter of a wealthy family. She's used to spending money lavishly. It was alright when times were tough, but now that she has money, I'm afraid her old ways will resurface. But she's lucky to have so much money to squander!"

That evening, Zhou whispered about it to Tang Qingshan.

After listening, Tang Qingshan came to the conclusion that Xu Lanzhi was not sensitive to money and especially liked people who spent money lavishly!

He slapped his forehead. Wasn't that exactly what he used to do? It seems he can take an even bigger step!
