Chapter 819: Trying to Reason
Yan: “.” You really think well!
Niu: "Why do we have to buy the connected ones? If they are not connected, they are not land? I have to go find them!"
One mu of land was worth twelve taels of silver, and selling a few mu would bring hundreds of taels. I heard someone even sold it for more than two hundred taels! Niu was so jealous that she felt very bitter.
"Oh, mother!" Yan complained in her heart and hurriedly pulled her back: "Mother, the eldest house must have their own intentions for wanting the adjacent land. That's their business! Even if you go and tell them, it's useless. Whether it's the eldest aunt or the fifth brother's wife, they all have their own ideas and won't change easily. Why are you doing this? We have finally improved our relationship, don't make it awkward again."
"That's not worth it, don't you think?"
Niu was stunned.
She doesn't really care whether the relationship is strained or not, doesn't think it's a big deal, and doesn't have too many feelings about it.
But one of Yan's words hit her right on the spot.
That was what Fang and Qiao Xuan, the damn mother-in-law and daughter-in-law, had already decided, and there was absolutely no way for him to make them change their minds.
And I can't do anything about them, and I can't even win an argument with Fang. What can I do?
Even if you go there angrily, you will just come back angry.
"Forget it!" Niu was disappointed: "If you don't want to go, then don't go. Hey, it's a bargain for them!"
Niu was still feeling very depressed and regretful, as if she had suffered a great loss.
Yan twitched her lips speechlessly: "."
Forget it, at least I persuaded her, it’s a good thing after all.
Yan hurriedly smiled and said some nice words, and took out ten or so pieces of private money to present to Niu. Only then did Niu become happy, and she smiled happily, praising Yan for her filial piety.
Yan was in a good mood after hearing this.
Her private money has increased now, and she can earn more than ten taels a month. She can afford to take out ten or twenty copper coins from time to time to honor her mother-in-law without feeling bad.
Just when Mrs. Niu was a little happy after being coaxed by Mrs. Yan, Mrs. Ma came.
Just like what she had thought before, Ma was also indignant, and she came over specifically to ask Niu to go to the main room together to "reason".
Seeing this, Yan secretly cursed in her heart, thinking that this Third Aunt was not a good person. It was fine if she wanted to cause trouble herself, but she always came to instigate her mother-in-law. She never thought about her mother-in-law when there was something good.
So Yan refused without waiting for Niu to speak.
Niu had just received the money given by Yan as a gift, and she felt embarrassed to not give face to her daughter-in-law, so she smiled awkwardly at Ma and said that she would not go.
Ma's eyes widened. You don't want hundreds of taels of silver?
She wanted to continue lobbying, but how could Yan give her a chance? She couldn't wait to change the subject and sent Ma away.
Ma was so angry that she couldn't help scolding Yan as soon as she left the house. She also mocked Niu for being timid.
No, she goes by herself.
The result is predictable
So Ma returned home even more angry.
She was certain that the eldest daughter-in-law deliberately didn't want to give them money, so she deliberately didn't buy their land.
After listening to a few words, Shao Liulang frowned and said with disgust: "Mom, don't bother them in the future. It's not like our family is starving, so why would we need a first wife? Don't worry, mom, I will definitely be able to make a name for myself in the future and surpass Shao Yunduan!"
"Remember, don't go to the big room again!"
"this--"
Ma wanted to explain a few more words, but was startled by Shao Liulang's cold and impatient gaze, and said quickly: "Okay, Liulang, whatever you say is what I will do."
