In the room, except for Mrs. Zhou and Old Man Xia, no one seemed to dare to believe their ears.
Is the old lady serious about this?
Xia Daohua was also shocked.
She knew that Zhou might not trust Sun, but she never expected that this matter would have anything to do with her.
However, while Zhou's words were still hanging in the air, she felt shamefully moved.
God knows how rare this opportunity is!
Leaving her hometown and going somewhere else to take a walk and have a look is almost impossible for a young lady in this time and space.
A daughter of an official family might even travel to different places as her father's official position changes;
But a peasant girl from an ordinary farming family may never be able to leave the small village where she was born in her entire life.
Leaving the place where you were born is not necessarily a good thing.
Leaving generally means only three situations:
Either they were kidnapped as goods or sold by their parents; or they fled famine with their families due to floods or droughts; or they had no choice but to get married.
After getting married, if you want to go out, it is more convenient than for an unmarried young lady.
But at most, they could only walk from the village where they lived to the county town to buy needles and thread and sell grain and vegetables.
As for traveling, that's simply a pipe dream!
However, with such a golden opportunity right in front of her, Xia Daohua simply couldn't resist its temptation!
Seeing the unpredictable expression on Xia Daohua's face, sometimes shocked, sometimes ecstatic, sometimes frowning, and sometimes eager to try, Zhou smiled, but Jiang became anxious:
"Mom, this is really not okay!
Not to mention that Daohua is only nine years old, she recently bumped her head and is often confused. This matter cannot be entrusted to her! Besides, she can't read or do accounting. How can such a delicate job as accounting be entrusted to her?
Sun snorted with a hint of pride: "Hmph, from the Fourth Family, you're smart!"
Zhou smiled slightly:

# "Old Second Family, this time you're going to visit Gu Erlang, as long as you follow Daohua's instructions from beginning to end, I'll give you ten taels of silver."
Sun swallowed loudly.
Zhou continued to smile and said, "If Daohua doesn't go, I won't pay the ten taels of silver."
Sun's mouth dropped open, bewildered. "Huh? Why is that?" She turned her head and glanced at Xia Daohua indignantly. "What's so good about this little girl? Mother, are you putting me down like this and praising her?"
Jiang cried anxiously, a surge of anger rising in her heart, even overwhelming her fear of Zhou's accumulated power, and she began to speak without thinking:
"Mother, how did Daohua offend you? Why do you want to hurt her like this? You are Daohua's grandmother, how could you treat her like this? I'm afraid that Daohua will never come back after she leaves! Wuuuuu..."
Sun was unhappy:
"Old Fourth, how can you talk like that?
Am I just a little bit bad-tempered and a bit of a mouthful?
Look at what you said! What do you mean by "once you leave, you'll never come back"? Daohua is my niece! If she goes out with me, what can I do but sell her off?
So in your mind, I am so bad?"
After hearing what Sun said, Jiang was actually a little worried. She was afraid that Sun would get out of control and sell the rice without thinking.
By then, even if I strangle her to death, it will be too late.
However, this cannot be said openly and honestly.
Jiang had always been a bit tongue-tied, and now she was anxious and couldn't help but lose her temper:
"Second sister-in-law, you also know that you have a bad temper and a bad mouth, right?
If Daohua lives with you, won't she inevitably be bullied every day? I can't bear to see my own daughter get bullied!
I feel sorry for her, and I don't want her to go out with you and suffer, and I don't want her to be angry with you, so what's wrong with that?"
Sun rolled her eyes at Jiang frivolously:
“…

Fourth Brother, it's okay if you don't want Daohua to go. Actually, I don't want to listen to that little girl's whining!
Anyway, as long as you pay the ten taels of silver for our mother, it will be fine."
Jiang was so angry that she laughed:
"Second sister-in-law, why are you so unreasonable?"
Sun disagreed:
"Reasonable? Silver is the most reasonable! Silver is the greatest reason!"
"You!" Jiang was furious. She shouldn't have argued with Sun. She should have just insisted on not letting Daohua go out.
"Okay, stop arguing!"
Zhou came out just in time to put out the fire:
"Both of you, please be quiet! This is settled.
Second brother's family, our family has already split up, and this money should have been paid by your second branch. Don't talk nonsense and try to blame the fourth branch.
Erlang's health is a big deal. When you get there, Erlang will be your top priority!
If you dare to deduct Erlang's medical expenses or food, or fail to serve him attentively, neglect Erlang, and cause Erlang to develop any chronic illness, you'd better pack up and go back to your Sun family!
My Xia family’s pond is too shallow to accommodate a big turtle like you making trouble here!
As for Daohua, I paid these ten taels of silver just to let Daohua be the supervisor.
You have to bring the rice flowers back to me the same way they went.
