Chen Guixiang just chuckled, rolled her eyes, and said, "Jiang's girl runs such a big workshop and I heard she's made a lot of money. Why didn't she bring you to the village to enjoy your lives sooner? That girl is really unfilial."
After saying that, he carefully examined the expressions on the faces of the others.
As expected, upon hearing this, the group's faces showed a mixture of joy and dissatisfaction.
Anger was faintly gathering in the old man's eyes.
She immediately realized what was going on and secretly cheered, thinking that the Jiang family would never have a peaceful life again.
Granny Wu was so angry that she cursed, "That little hussy, she earns money but doesn't know how to be filial to her elders. If Yaoguang hadn't told us, we would still be in the dark. I'll teach that little hussy a lesson today."
Old Jiang frowned, his heart filled with displeasure.
The eldest son's family has gone too far. They can barely make ends meet in the county town, but the eldest son's family is enjoying a life of luxury in the village while they suffer outside.
The group of people were all dissatisfied, but Chen Guixiang kept talking about how well the Jiang family was doing, which only made them feel more resentful.
"You don't know, that girl Jiang now has enough money to build a brick house and has a large workshop with more than a dozen workers. I heard that she makes several taels of silver every day from her business with Huichuntang."
Chen Guixiang spoke with feigned exaggeration, a hint of smugness in her heart.
Everyone says that the relationship between a mother-in-law and daughter-in-law is difficult, and she has naturally experienced being tormented by her mother-in-law. Just now, when she heard the contempt these people showed towards the Jiang family, she knew that this group of people were not easy to get along with.
The Jiang family is probably not going to have a peaceful life from now on. She can't deal with those people, but now that someone has come along, there's going to be a good show.
The thought of those shameless Jiang family members being taught a lesson made her incredibly happy.
Granny Wu was shocked. The letter said that the Jiang family had opened a workshop to do business. Although she knew it was soap, she still thought that those fools in the Jiang family could not do any big business. They would be lucky to make a few hundred coins a day.
Who would have thought that it would be a business that yielded several taels a day, which would amount to a hundred taels a month.
If this business were to fall into their laps, they wouldn't need to wait for Jiang Yaoguang to give them money.
Not only could they wear gold and silver, but they could also dine in restaurants every day; their lives were incredibly carefree.
She immediately asked, "Where does that little hussy live?"
Chen Guixiang just smiled and pointed to the house not far away that hadn't been fully tiled yet, saying, "That's the house where the tiles are still being laid, that's Jiang Yatou's house."
Upon hearing this, Granny Wu and the others were stunned. They stared in astonishment at the house, which covered an area of about four or five acres, their eyes wide with disbelief.
"Then, that huge mansion belongs to the Jiang family?"
Even though they were mentally prepared, they were still taken aback for a moment.
That house occupies four or five acres, and it would cost at least several hundred taels of silver to build. That little hussy probably really made a fortune.
Chen Guixiang nodded and said with a smile, "The Jiang family has earned a lot of money, so naturally they won't mistreat the people around them. I heard that there are more than a dozen people in the family who fled the famine with them!"
Look at Jiang, she's so kind-hearted, even giving a stranger a place to stay.
Hearing this, Granny Wu was so angry that her chest almost exploded. She cursed, "That spendthrift woman! She earns money and doesn't keep it to support us. Instead, she gives it away. I'm going to beat them to death today!"
After saying that, he walked straight down the mountain.
The group marched aggressively down the mountain, attracting the attention of many villagers who asked them questions out of curiosity.
Chen Guixiang answered all her questions one by one, saying, "This is Jiang Yatou's biological grandmother. She heard that Jiang Yatou is doing well, so she came to visit."
Upon hearing that it was a relative of the Jiang family who had arrived, many people followed behind them, intending to go and see what was going on.
Jiang Yimian had just finished eating and was feeding the mules with Wang Fengqin in the yard.
The two men fed the mules while chatting casually.
"Once the wasteland in the village is cleared and medicinal herbs are planted, it will probably be time for spring planting. The villagers will be busy for one or two months."
Wang Fengqin spoke helplessly, but there was no trace of fatigue in her words; instead, there was a hint of happiness.
Jiang Yimian just smiled and said, "It's better to be busy farming than busy fleeing famine and seeking refuge."
The fact that people are busy farming indicates that the world is stable, allowing everyone to focus on farming and waiting for the harvest.
Wang Fengqin nodded with a smile, "That's right, being busy farming is a good thing."
Just then, an angry shout came from outside the courtyard, "Wang Fengqin, get out here!"
Jiang Yimian frowned, feeling that the voice sounded familiar, but she couldn't place where she had heard it before.
Wang Fengqin froze, her eyes wide with surprise. After a long while, she slowly said, "Yes, it sounds like my mother-in-law's voice."
She hadn't heard that voice for almost a year, and it felt like a lifetime had passed.
Jiang Yimian raised an eyebrow, surprised that these people would come to the village.
She thought Jiang Yaoguang would be eager to stay away from her, afraid that they would stick to her. Unexpectedly, instead of her going to them, these people came to her door.
Seeing Wang Fengqin's strange expression and the fear on her face, Jiang Yimian's heart softened, and she quickly comforted her, "Mother, don't go out, I'll chase them away."
She had always known that her mother had been suppressed by her grandparents for many years and was afraid of them. Although her gentle nature had changed a lot in the past six months, she still had a shadow cast by the Jiang family after so many years, and she couldn't change it in a short time.
Wang Fengqin shook her head, her voice trembling but filled with anger, "They abandoned us to flee the famine without ever caring about our lives. How can I let them have their way?"
I want to show them that our family is not only alive, but thriving.
When Jiang Yimian and Wang Fengqin opened the courtyard gate, Old Man Jiang and Jiang Erzhuang were about to break down the tightly closed gate in front of them.
Unexpectedly, before he could even reach the gate with his powerful charge, it was opened from the inside.
The two of them didn't have time to stop and fell to the ground with a thud.
Immediately, two painful groans rang out, sounding particularly loud in the quiet crowd.
Everyone outside the door was stunned. It was Granny Wu who reacted first. She immediately put her hands on her hips and cursed, "You little hussy, you heartless bastard, are you trying to kill your grandfather and second uncle? Hurry up and help them up."
It's been almost a year since I last saw her, and this little rascal has grown up so well, she almost didn't recognize her. That's enough to prove how well she's doing.
The more she looked, the angrier she became; she wished she could rush up and slash their faces right now.
They suffered terribly while fleeing famine, and if it weren't for the rice shop owner, the whole family would probably have died on the road. These wretches, on the other hand, are living a life of luxury, pampered and clean. How could she not be angry?
Li looked at the two of them with a face full of jealousy, and she could hardly contain her jealousy.
