But upon closer inspection, it wasn't brand new; it was only about 60-70% new.
The men were puzzled. Were they supposed to buy someone else's used items?
The kitchen seemed much more crowded, with many more bottles and jars added, and a lot more smoked meat hanging above the stove.
The men were a little confused by this change.
"The Song family thought all the men in our family were dead and wanted to steal our property and exploit us," said Old Mrs. Qiao. "We fought them off, but they just couldn't swallow their anger. If they can steal from us, why can't we steal from them?"
Old Man Qiao casually said, "We'll just go to the Song family and move these things over here."
Qiao Zhizhi: "We've crippled them all. They'll need at least seven or eight days to recover. They can barely walk now, even crawling."
I see.
Boss Qiao snorted: "That's how it should be done. Has the Song family moved out completely? If not, we'll go and move them out ourselves."
"Smoked meat and dried vegetables, oil, salt, grains, flour, bedding, tables and chairs—we've all been brought over; there's almost no room to put them all," said Old Qiao. "Sit down and eat. You all work hard outside; we're not afraid of anyone causing trouble at home."
The men looked at Old Man Qiao with his arm in a sling and were glad that they had left Da Meng and Xiao Meng at home, otherwise they might not have been able to handle it. Since it was a case of taking advantage of someone who had no descendants, the Song family would definitely have mobilized the entire family.
After exerting themselves in the county town, the man ate an extra bowl of rice compared to usual, but fortunately, Mrs. Wan cooked more rice.
Seeing how much they were eating, Grandma Qiao thought that once the house was built and they had saved more money, they wouldn't have to work so hard. They were all Qiao family children, and it pained her to see them like this.
Qiao Lian'er takes care of the space whenever she has time, trying to find ways to earn gold coins. At this rate, she should be able to unlock level 2 items in about seven or eight days.
“Lian’er, why do I feel that you sometimes look dazed, as if you’re daydreaming?” Lying in bed, Qiao Yunni looked at her, carefully choosing her words: “Lian’er, you look dazed, as if you’re daydreaming.”
"Mother, I'm thinking of ways to make money for the family," Qiao Lian'er said.
Qiao Yunni suddenly realized that the money they had earned during this period was all thanks to Lian'er, whose efforts had been discovered by the boss and who had coincidentally secured the escort mission.
Of course, everyone made sacrifices, and everyone worked very hard, but it was Lian'er's idea in the first place.
She thought that Lian'er came up with those methods easily, but it turned out that it wasn't easy at all.
"Things have been relatively stable lately, so don't worry too much and go to sleep early."
"Mother, I'm going to sleep." Qiao Lian'er blew out the lamp and continued working in the space.

Shen Liang waited for two whole days, but no news came. Instead, he couldn't even see any of Shi Murou's people.
Since Shi Murou went home the night before last, she has not been seen again.
He could wait peacefully for the past two days, but today he started to feel a little uneasy.
He was recovering from a snake bite, which should have been her most worried time.
Could it be that Old Master Shi was unhappy with what Shi Murou said and locked her up, forbidding her from going out?
Or is it that Shi Murou herself didn't want to come?
No, that's impossible. For her, he was someone she would never abandon, even in life or death.
"Where is your young lady? Is something holding her up?" Shen Liang asked a young servant boy.
