Watching Yue Jiuyue and her mother-in-law leave just like that, the old clan chief glared at his unfilial son, regretting that he hadn't overstepped his bounds and taken charge earlier.
"You, you're such a blockhead!!!"
Three exclamation marks couldn't express the old patriarch's anger at this moment.
The old clan chief turned and left, but Village Chief Lin watched his father's retreating figure and muttered something to himself:
"Sigh! It's not so easy to get a bargain."
He worried himself sick over the entire Linjiagou village, but his elderly father couldn't understand his good intentions.
As the village head of Linjiagou Village, how could he only look at the good and not the bad? If he didn't anticipate the worst-case scenario in advance, and if Lin Yueshi really was as he thought, their village really couldn't afford to bear the consequences!
That's the money for an entire mountain!
He can only accept the worst possible consequences that they can afford.
(︶.?︶?)
Yue Jiuyue didn't feel regretful that she didn't manage to buy the mountain. After all, those mountains were there, and she could buy them anytime.
She even had a feeling that she could buy a mountain at a very favorable price.
On the way home, Liu hesitated to speak.
Her mother-in-law is amazing! She just casually mentions a mountain! Is she going to become a mountain queen?
Wouldn't she become the mountain king's daughter-in-law in the future?
Thinking about it, it seems pretty good!
Liu was so happy with her own imagination that she couldn't stop smiling.
The little girl, busy digging for clams in the lake, was so focused on digging a hole for the doorway that she didn't hear anyone passing by. It wasn't until she heard the door opening and closing that she realized the stingy mother-in-law and daughter-in-law had returned.
The little girl pouted, muttered a lot of nasty things at the door, then rubbed her aching stomach and squatted down.
Her stomach hurts so much! She's so hungry!
She had never been this hungry in her life. In the past, her older sisters would always give her their share of food. After her older sister got married, she had less to eat. Today, she wasn't home, and she didn't know if her second sister remembered to leave her some food.
She glared angrily at the gate one last time, climbed ashore, threw the hoe casually toward the gate, and walked away grumbling.
Hearing the commotion, Liu came out to check and rolled her eyes at the girl's retreating figure.
This girl is ruined!
Although she used to pretend to cry, she would never do things that would make people talk behind her back. She borrowed money and didn't pay it back, and she just threw away someone's hoe. She's really not a good person!
After returning home, Liu repeated these words to Yue Jiuyue, emphasizing again and again that she should not open the door for that girl in the future, and that she should not let her lead Xiaoman'er astray.
Yue Jiuyue naturally nodded repeatedly.
"Mother, you don't think I'm heartless, do you? That girl is actually quite pitiful. It's just that she always does inhuman things, which makes me not want to be nice to her. I just want to stay far away from her."
Liu was afraid that Yue Jiuyue would misunderstand her. Their relationship had only improved for half a year. Although their relationship was good at the moment and they understood each other, complete trust was definitely not possible.
She didn't completely trust her mother-in-law. If her mother-in-law showed even the slightest sign of reverting to her old ways, she would immediately jump up and crush her.
Yue Jiuyue: (#-.-)
Thank you for not killing me.
"What's wrong with that? They say 'every pitiful person has something hateful about them,' and that's exactly what that child is talking about. From now on, you'll be in charge of this household and you'll be the one to make the decisions."
