Chapter 218 I hope I didn't understand that look



This is a good opportunity to hand over the management of the household.

Of course, she couldn't possibly hand over all the money to Liu for safekeeping. At most, she would give Liu a money box and put some money into it every month so that Liu wouldn't have to ask her about it when buying things.

Mainly, it was because Liu had been behaving well lately, always thinking of her and taking care of everything at home. She only needed to wash her own underwear and could even sleep in until she naturally woke up. She also stopped whining and acting pitiful, making outsiders think that her mother-in-law was bullying her…

Huh? Doesn't this look a bit like that guy outside?

Yue Jiuyue glanced at Liu Shi, then at the girl outside who was coaxing Xiao Man'er, her expression somewhat complicated.

Liu: (#-.-)

She desperately hoped that she hadn't misread the meaning behind her mother-in-law's gaze at that moment.

She hadn't thought there was anything wrong with what she did before, after all, she was just trying to protect herself. But now, looking at that little girl outside, she suddenly couldn't look at her former self the same way. She felt something was off about her, and wished she could just forget everything.

“Mother, I have reformed. I am no longer the Liu Dahua I used to be.”

As Liu spoke, she nodded to herself, which made Yue Jiuyue laugh; she seemed like a child.

She then thought, "This Liu is still just a child! She'll only be nineteen after the New Year."

Waaaaah, she's not that old, and she became a mother through painless delivery, not to mention she has a three-year-old granddaughter!

Life is full of surprises and unexpected events!

?(??????)?

During breakfast, the family indeed ignored the uninvited girl. Yue Jiuyue had reminded her before eating, but the girl wouldn't listen, so there was nothing she could do but watch.

Dog Egg's third cousin really didn't expect that this family would actually stand by and watch her, who was helping them with chores, go hungry, not only not giving her food, but not even a sip of rice porridge.

She cursed under her breath, but she couldn't bear to leave. She refused to believe that if she worked for them for a day, they wouldn't give her a single bite to eat.

Then she would go around the village spreading rumors that this family were all stingy bastards, making the whole village despise them! She would make sure that the two men in that family would never find wives and would remain bachelors for life! Ideally, the whole family would be expelled from the clan!

Yue Jiuyue and the others had no idea that this young girl had already planned out their family's future.

Because the land was so dry that even weeds didn't like to grow, and there was nowhere to fetch water to irrigate the land, life became leisurely, but there was no leisure of winter, and people's hearts were a little restless.

How can one not be impetuous?

At this time last year, at least there were still a few springs in the mountains, which provided them with water to drink and water to irrigate their fields.

Later, the springs dried up, but the ancient well suddenly had water every day, and even the South Lake was full of water, so they were able to have some harvest and not end up with nothing after a year of hard work.

But this year...

Because of the water in Nanhu Lake, and because of the need to grow sweet potatoes, everyone not only planted crops on all their fields, but some people even cleared wasteland, simply because sweet potatoes don't have high requirements for soil, and even if they don't produce sweet potatoes, the sweet potato vines are still edible! Anyway, sweet potato seedlings don't cost money!

It was this mentality that caused the water in Nanhu Lake to disappear in a flash.

Even now, everyone is staring blankly, sighing and regretting their past actions.
