As she spoke, she took out an envelope from her bag, and you could tell at a glance that there was a thick stack of banknotes inside.

"Most of the things I brought out from the Pan family, except for the second wife's share, were exchanged for silver dollars.

Money was more valuable back then, and it's hard to tell if I were to calculate it in detail. So, here's 880 yuan. Take it, and don't refuse it. It's yours to begin with."

To be honest, she was also spending money to buy peace of mind, so that she would have one less stain on her body and would feel more justified among her relatives.

Of course, a big reason for this is that Pan Shuyu is doing well now, and it is worthwhile for the two families to resume their relations.

Today, she learned that she had a capable sister, which made her more willing to take the trouble to cultivate the relationship between them.

She smiled warmly and amiably, acting like a member of her family, "Hurry up and take it. Your dowry is useless. Only when you have money in your hands can you feel confident in your husband's family.

If you feel uneasy taking it all, give some to your brothers."

"Forget it then."

Pan Shuyu rejected it without even thinking, wishing that all those people would starve to death outside.

Not to mention that she was holding a grudge because of what happened back then.

She knew very well that her brothers were wolves that could never be fed. Once she gave them money, she would never be able to get rid of them again.

Ye Zhen understood her thoughts and just smiled. He stood up and said, "The money has been handed over to you. Don't tell anyone about what happened in the past."

The two families are now done with each other.

Pan Shuyu nodded reluctantly. For the sake of money, he didn't want to argue too much and sent her out in a friendly manner.

After sending her to the door, she pulled Pan Shuhua aside and asked, "How's that girl you mistakenly took away?"

"She's not even a month old yet, so she's being raised at home. I've already contacted my comrades to find a few good families for her. I plan to have them come visit her when she's older, and then she'll go to the family she gets along with the most."

Pan Shuyu nodded. "As long as you make up your mind, that's all. I'm afraid you'll be soft-hearted at the last minute. It's pitiful that Niuniu had to deal with this right after she was born. By the way, have you found the person who abandoned her in the ward?"

"There are some clues, but no evidence."

The doctors and nurses involved in the baby-swapping incident at the hospital were dealt with.

But they communicated with the people behind them through letters, and the words on the letter paper were printed. They also chose to trade money at crowded stations, so finding someone was like looking for a needle in a haystack.

So he could only use the stupid method and check his suspects one by one.

But he is not someone to be trifled with. Any noise he makes could easily arouse public outrage. If the old man of the Jiang family had not personally stepped forward, he would have been warned or even taught a lesson long ago.

Pan Shuyu didn't quite understand the twists and turns inside, so she just comforted him, "As long as the child is fine, I'll go see her in a couple of days when I'm done with my work here."

"Okay, you're welcome anytime. I'm leaving now. See you next time."

"Go slowly on the road. The road at the entrance of the alley is difficult to walk on. Don't let your mother fall."

…

After getting the money, Pan Shuyu finally breathed a sigh of relief, and the frustration of the morning was gone.

But He Qiu Sheng began to feel awkward.

In the future, his daughter-in-law will become the legitimate head of his family. What if she brings his parents over and lets them live in her house?

"Take it!"

Pan Shuyu slapped the envelope in front of him and said, "When I was broke, I worried about money and sat on the bedside sighing to me every day. Now that I have money, I'm being pretentious."

"This...it would be so embarrassing if others knew about it."

Who would have thought that he could still have a gigolo when he was in middle age?

"Why is it not nice? The people in the village can only envy you when they know you bought a house in the city and brought your parents here to enjoy life.

"You used to not take them to heart when they called you lazy, but now you're taking the groundless gossip to heart. In my opinion, as long as you can live a better life than before, why do you care where the money comes from?"

She continued carelessly, "If you really feel bad about it, that's fine. Just consider it as my home returning to yours.

I haven't eaten much in recent years, and your parents have given me countless subsidies. This money comes from my family, so it should go into their pockets."

“Nonsense!”

He Qiusheng couldn't stand her self-deprecating words. "You've been doing a lot of work around the house and outside the home these years since you got married. You're much more diligent than me. My mom says you can't work, but without you, how could she possibly handle it?"

Just because she didn't do it well doesn't mean she didn't do it.

On the contrary, Pan Shuyu definitely put in more effort, learning from scratch and trying her best to fulfill her duties as a daughter-in-law.

She was not good at farm work, but she had been familiar with the Four Books and Five Classics since she was a child. She would occasionally go to the village primary school to teach children and work as a teacher in literacy classes. She earned a lot of extra work points, which was more than enough to support herself.

"What's the point of arguing over it? Aren't we going to live together after we buy the house? In the end, it will all be given to Xiaohua anyway."

"Too."

He Qiusheng thought for a moment and said, "But your name must be written on the property deed."

This was his last stand.

"It's up to you, but we need to find a middleman. Someone from the Huang family, if they see we're the ones buying the house, they'll definitely quote a sky-high price."

"I thought so too. Don't worry, Dongbao has made all the arrangements. There's no need for us to intervene."

…

He Ruixue was having a blast on the mountain.

The small mound behind the funeral home was not as good as the real mountains they had visited. It had sparse trees and not many species of plants.

But we should look at everything dialectically. A drier forest means a wider range of activities and unrestricted vision.

As for the rich species, it is more for wild animals. The absence of large animals means that they are particularly safe in the mountains.
