"You shameless slut!" Before Li could react, she lunged straight at Qian Manman.
Peach Blossom wanted to participate, but Qian Manman wouldn't let her. Before Li Shi could come over, she kicked her to the ground.
"Although you are an elder, you have insulted my mother and shown no respect for my grandparents. You deserve to be beaten!"
Qian Manman physically assaulted her elders, which was considered disrespectful, but her words were so aptly stated that no one could find fault with her.
"Third son, keep your wife in check!" Old Mrs. Qian continued, picking up where Qian Manman left off. "If you don't respect this old woman, send her back to Li Family Village!"
Only after everyone had completely quieted down did Old Master Qian put down his pipe.
“Zhao Sanlang is a son-in-law from the second wife’s family.” Old Master Qian continued, “Are you willing to give up your son and wholeheartedly support Zhao Sanlang’s education?”
After Master Qian finished speaking, no one responded. After all, no matter how good a scholar was, he couldn't compare to his own son.
"Since no one is willing, then it's settled." Old Master Qian continued talking about the division of the family property.
Having failed to become a scholar, the family division could not afford to suffer any further losses. Just as the various branches were preparing for a major battle, Old Master Qian spoke up again.
"You three brothers stay here, everyone else go out."
Even Old Mrs. Qian couldn't stay.
After an unknown amount of time, as everyone waited anxiously, the main hall doors opened.
"Dad, how was it divided?" Li was the first to rush forward.
“The old house belongs to the eldest brother, and our parents will live with him.” Qian Changshou continued with a dark face, “The left yard belongs to us, and the right yard belongs to the second brother. The family’s land is divided into four parts, one for our parents, and one for each of us three brothers.”
"How can you divide the family property like this? We have two sons!" Mrs. Li exclaimed, heading to find Old Master Qian.
"Come back!" Qian Changshou shouted angrily, and Li Shi dared not make a fuss anymore.
Qian Manman felt that Grandpa Qian had divided the money very fairly. He did not give her less because she did not have a son, nor did he give her more because he favored one of her sons.
"Let's pack up and move there!" Qian Fugui felt bad seeing his brothers arguing over the division of the family property.
There weren't many things to begin with, so everything was quickly packed up. Peach Blossom brewed a pot of Longjing tea and brought it over, and the family sat down together to drink tea and eat snacks.
"Father, Mother, what should we do next?"
Qian Manman didn't think her father would be content to live like this, after all, he hadn't avenged his great grudge.
"Your marriage is the most urgent matter right now. I plan to..."
Before Qian Fugui could finish speaking, Qian Manman spat out a mouthful of tea.
"Father, there's no rush for the marriage. The most important thing right now is to accumulate capital so we can return to the city and avenge ourselves when the time is right!" Qian Manman declared passionately.
Seeing his daughter's remarkable achievements, Qian Fugui was moved to tears, marveling in his heart that his daughter was just as capable as any man!
“One thing at a time.” Madam Qian looked around and said, “The house may not be as grand as those in the city, but it’s fine for now. We’ll fix it up properly when you get married.”
Just as Qian Fugui and his wife were discussing how to arrange the wedding, Zhao Tieniu arrived.
Watching the group having such a lively discussion, Qian Manman thought to herself, if she didn't stop them, she might have to marry a live-in son-in-law tomorrow!
"Uncle Zhao, you've heard about our family's situation. I'm thinking of saving up more money before we hold the wedding."
Qian Manman called for Tao Hua to add tea and water, and continued, "I know Uncle Zhao doesn't care about these things, but we can't let Sanlang suffer."
“Sanlang is a capable person, and he has to take the exam next year, so we absolutely cannot delay it.” Seeing that no one objected, Qian Manman continued, “I was thinking that we should set the date after the exam next year, so that it would not affect Sanlang’s exam and I could also prepare more of our belongings.”
"You child..."
Normally, women would blush with embarrassment when talking about their marriage, but her daughter was so open and generous, which left Mrs. Qian unsure whether to laugh or cry.
“Manman’s words make perfect sense,” Zhao Tiezhu said, quite satisfied with Qian Manman’s arrangements.
"Hahaha~ Brother Tie Niu, isn't my daughter great! Once Sanlang becomes the top scholar in the imperial examination, Manman will be able to support the family~"
Qian Fugui praised her without reservation, feeling that she was exactly like himself back then.
With his daughter full of energy, Qian Fugui, as her father, couldn't let her down, so that evening he held another family meeting to discuss ways to make money.
"You have to get up from where you fell down." Qian Fugui sighed deeply and continued, "Now that we're starting all over again, I don't know how long it will take."
"As long as our family works together, everything will be possible!"
Qian Manman held her mother in one hand and her father in the other, and said with a serious expression, "Actually, I have a secret, but I don't know how to tell you."
Qian Fugui used to run a restaurant. After discussing it for a long time, he finally decided to go back to his old business.
Qian Manman originally did not intend to reveal the space, but after spending these days together, she trusted Qian Fugui and his wife very much. After thinking it over, she finally decided to tell them about the space.
"God has been very kind to my family!"
"Manman, you absolutely mustn't tell anyone about this!"
Upon hearing Qian Manman's words and seeing her conjure up many things they had never seen before, Qian Fugui and his wife were filled with surprise and disbelief.
"Dad, Mom, let's try this!"
Qian Manman took out a packet of instant noodles from her spatial storage, poured boiling water over it, and soon the aroma filled the air.
"Smooth and chewy, spicy and savory!"
After taking a bite of instant noodles, Qian Fugui was amazed. In all his years working in the catering industry, he had never tasted anything so delicious!
