Chapter 103 Beware of the Flower



After Xu Mo carried the food back to the house, he went to Liu Xiaolan's room.

He handed the five-hundred-year-old ginseng given to him by Shen Jiaojiao to Liu Xiaolan.

"Mom, this is the ginseng that Jiaojiao dug up. It's five hundred years old. She asked me to give it to Dad."

Liu Xiaolan was shocked.

She had never seen such a big ginseng before. No, she had never seen ginseng before.

Be good!

Five hundred year old ginseng!

This must be worth a lot of money!

"Third brother, we can't accept such a valuable thing."

"Jiaojiao insisted on giving it to me, saying it might have an effect on Dad."

Xu Mo lowered his eyelashes to hide the sadness in his eyes, "I actually want to give it a try, maybe Dad can wake up after taking ginseng."

Liu Xiaolan suddenly felt a little sad in her eyes.

How could she not want the old man to wake up?

If he were here, this home would be much better.

"Our family really owes Jiaojiao too much." She sighed.

Suddenly I felt that today's division was the right decision.

After the family split up, none of them could take advantage of Jiaojiao anymore.

Jiaojiao is a silly girl, kind and sensible. If the family had not been divided, she would definitely be dragged down by this big family.

Outside the door, Zhou Ying stopped.

She listened to the conversation in the room, gritted her teeth, and finally she was too embarrassed to take another step forward.

She originally wanted to take the pot back, but at the very least she had to be compensated with two dollars.

In short, Liu Xiaolan cannot be allowed to take all the blame alone.

But she happened to hear Shen Jiaojiao giving her father-in-law a five-hundred-year-old ginseng.

I feel really bad.

I didn't expect Shen Jiaojiao to be so generous.

Five hundred year old ginseng, given away immediately.

It's a lie!

Where can you find a ginseng that is 500 years old?

If there was one, it must be very valuable. She didn't believe that Shen Jiaojiao would really be willing to give away such a valuable thing.

Even though he was unwilling, Zhou Ying did not go to Liu Xiaolan to discuss the pot matter and returned to his room.

After all, if she went to Liu Xiaolan to ask for the pot now, wouldn't that make her seem petty?

Xu Mo didn't stay in the room for long and prepared to leave.

"Third brother, you don't know how to cook. When Jiaojiao marries us, we definitely won't let her cook. Bring the food over and I'll cook for you."

Although her behavior would certainly make the first and second wives unhappy, she didn't care.

This family owes too much to the third sister, she is just biased.

Xu Mo refused, "No need, mother, I should be able to do it after a little learning. I will cook for Jiaojiao in the future."

He also knew that if his mother only cared about his family, his two sisters-in-law would definitely have opinions.

Then we'll start arguing over trivial matters again.

Liu Xiaolan didn't insist and decided to wait until Jiaojiao came in.

The split of the first branch of the Xu family was soon known to the second branch of the Xu family.

When Zhang Xiufang heard the news, she first laughed out loud.

Then he ran into the house, squatted in the corner and picked up a roll of money after a long time.

She counted carefully and found there were thirty-two yuan.

This was her hidden pocket money, which her daughter-in-law didn't know about.

Zhang Xiufang held the money in her hand, and while her daughter-in-law was sleeping at home, she ran to the door of Xu's main room.

He didn't go in, but leaned against the door, wet his hands with saliva, and began to pretend to count money.

"Ten, twenty, twenty-one..."

In the yard, Zhou Ying and Li Ermei were washing things in front of their own rooms, and then they saw such a speechless scene.

What does it mean?

To show off how much money she has?

Li Ermei rolled her eyes and said deliberately, "Hey, you are making a lot of money! Your face is smiling like a chrysanthemum, be careful or you will spend it all!"

Zhang Xiufang did not respond to Li Ermei's words. She counted the money and when she counted to thirty-two, she let out a loud cry.

As if she was afraid that others didn't know she had thirty-two yuan.

Humph, virtue.

After Zhang Xiufang finished showing off, she put the money in her pocket.

She said with a smile, "I heard that you split up the family? And you only got a dozen dollars? How can you live with such a small amount of money? I am an old woman and I still have some pocket money!"

Why! You are also pitiful. Something happened to your father-in-law as soon as you got married. You didn't enjoy a good life, and there was no one to help you. You will only be so poor for the rest of your life.

What a pity! "

The more Zhou Ying listened, the more aggrieved she felt, and her eyes turned red.

She just felt that she was wronged and unlucky, and that she was not destined to enjoy a happy life.

Li Ermei felt that this second aunt needed to be punished. She came to pick a fight at this critical moment. She must be malicious!

Just when I was about to say something sarcastic to her, I saw Liu Xiaolan walking out of the room.

"You old hag, are you looking for trouble? You come here to show off your little money. I think you really won't cry until you see the coffin."

Liu Xiaolan glared at Zhang Xiufang, then shouted to the neighbor next door, "Qian Juan, your old man has hidden away some private money, thirty-two yuan! Hurry up and take him back and give him a good lesson."

Her shout almost frightened Zhang Xiufang to death.

She had saved this money secretly with great difficulty, and her daughter-in-law at home didn't know about it.

If her daughter-in-law knew about this, she would definitely take all of them away, and she might even be beaten.

"If you don't shout, can't I just leave?" Zhang Xiufang hurriedly stopped Liu Xiaolan.

He was so anxious that he was dancing with joy.

But it was too late.

The houses in the countryside are not soundproof, so if you make a little noise, the whole village will know about it.

"Get back here, you heartless old fellow."

Zhang Xiufang's daughter-in-law's voice rang out from next door, full of anger.

The old guy glared at Liu Xiaolan hatefully and left in shame.

Not long after, sounds of beating and scolding and Zhang Xiufang's repeated begging for mercy came from next door.

If Zhang Xiufang knew about the Xu family's split, then the whole village would know about it too.

"I heard that the Xu Mo family split up? What happened? Could it be that Liu Xiaolan did something bad again?"

"Liu Xiaolan's eldest daughter-in-law is capable, sensible and filial. Although the second daughter-in-law is as wild as a cow, she is still no match for Liu Xiaolan. So, it must be that Liu Xiaolan bullied her two daughters-in-law too harshly, and the daughters-in-law couldn't stand it, so they separated from her."

"This Liu Xiaolan is really vicious. I heard that they only got a dozen yuan and not much food. Whoever marries into her family will be in trouble."

Shen Jiaojiao heard these words.

I found Xu Mo during the afternoon work.

"Third brother, what's going on at home? Why is the family divided?"

Xu Mo was cutting trees on the mountain at this time.

He was quite surprised to see Shen Jiaojiao coming to see him.

"You know about this too?" He sighed. "With so many people in the house, there will always be minor frictions after living together for a long time. It's better to separate. There will be fewer conflicts in the future."

Xu Mo did not explicitly say that the family split was caused by his eldest sister-in-law.

But Shen Jiaojiao could guess it.
