Chapter 175: Greed

Zhulan looked at Li. This was also a way to open her mind. Although it sometimes worked and sometimes didn't, she was already very satisfied. "Yes."

Li was angry. She hated Sun in particular and Wang Ru, the vicious girl, even more. She said harshly, "Zheng must ask for more money. Don't give it cheaply to Wang Ru."

Otherwise, she won't be able to relieve her anger.

Zhu Lan smiled and said, "Don't worry, Zheng will definitely ask for more money. Let everyone in the village know that Wang Ru is someone who can come up with two hundred taels."

She is digging her own grave. The person she admires the most is Wang Ru. Zheng is such a greedy person. It would be a shame for her ancestors if she didn't kill the fat sheep that came to her door!

Li smiled happily and felt relieved. "Mom, I'll go ask how much money was sold."

Zhao called out to her eldest sister-in-law, "Sister-in-law, Zheng won't tell you how much money she made from the sale. She's not stupid."

Li sat back down. Zheng was indeed not stupid. If you have no foundation in the village, it is better not to show off or you may get into trouble. Not everyone is as stupid as Wang Laosi. After thinking it through, Li's eyes sparkled. She seemed to have become smarter. She looked at her mother with her peripheral vision and slowly moved closer to her. She must stay with her mother more. Her son always said that those who are close to vermilion will be red, and those who are close to ink will be black. Her intelligence was all infected by her mother!

Zhulan silently looked at Li who almost hit her. She felt a strong greasy feeling, and then looked at Li's shining eyes. She finally became smart for a moment, but then she returned to her original state!

Zhao looked at her mother's face, which looked like she had lost all hope in life, and tried not to laugh. Her mother's expression was particularly lively in front of her sister-in-law. In fact, it was a good thing for her sister-in-law to be like this, as it could bring a lot of vitality to the family!

The Zheng family moved in one morning. No one in the village could find out how much the house was sold for. All they knew was that the Zheng family bought the dilapidated house of the extinct Wang family without hesitation and moved in with the whole family.

In the afternoon, the neighbors brought in a lot of green bricks and tiles, and someone came to measure the size and make a wardrobe. Everyone knew that Wang Ru was going to renovate the house.

After half a month of continuous work, the next door was finally completed. The roof was replaced with green tiles. It was said that the floor of the house was no longer made of dirt, but was covered with green bricks. There were also wardrobes in the house, a style that had never been seen before. Of course, the most eye-catching thing was that the wall was also made of green bricks, and it was taller than Zhulan's house. Zhulan estimated that it was about nine feet.

Wang Ru took great care in safety, and both the front door and the room doors were newly made.

Li went around talking to others and kept telling them how good the house next door was. However, Li did not rush to renovate his own house because he knew in his heart that he would move out next year.

In a blink of an eye, it was Wang Ru's moving day. Li went to see the excitement and came back with a breath, "Mom, the neighbors have three big dogs. I don't know where Wang Ru got them."

Zhulan, "As long as you have money, this little thing is not a big deal."

Li was curious, "Mom, it is said that the renovation next door cost a lot of money, how much money does Wang Ru have?"

Zhulan thought that she also wanted to know, "You ask me, who should I ask?"

Just when Li was about to get closer to her mother, Wang Xin came over with a somewhat reserved manner, "Grandma Zhou, hello, Auntie Zhou."

Zhulan looked at Wang Xin. The girl's clothes were obviously dressed by Wang Ru. The makeup on her face was also done by Wang Ru. She became prettier and her eyes were different. Last time, Wang Xin hid behind her sister and she didn't notice her. This time, she came into contact with her, but she didn't like it. "What's the matter?"

She knew that Wang Ru would not be at peace living next door, but unfortunately they could not drive Wang Ru away. With more and more actions, Wang Ru should be alert. But then she thought it would be better to keep her under her nose so that she would not do anything wrong if she was too far away and no one knew about it.

Wang Xin held up a basket filled with cakes and said, "My sisters and I have moved next door to each other. We will be neighbors with Grandma Zhou in the future. I came to visit her and hope that she will take care of us more in the future."

Li was already unhappy because Wang Xin resembled Sun, and she was even more unhappy after hearing this. "There is no relationship between our two families. I have done you a great favor by not ruining your stay. Don't say that a distant relative is not as good as a close neighbor. You sisters know your reputations well. It is better not to come to our house in the future. Hurry up and leave!"

Mrs. Li is selfish. She also has a concubine, and there are many girls in her family. How could she allow a girl to come to her house and take care of her? Bah, she is so unsatisfied after taking advantage of her. She is even more greedy than her!

Zhulan didn't want to make Li hate her. She said it was inappropriate for Li to criticize her. Li said it was just right. "Everyone in the village knows what you are up to by buying the Zheng family. We are generous if we can help you. You should take care of yourself and don't come again."

Wang Xin's face flushed, and the joy of living in a new house was gone. The resentment in her heart had been suppressed for a long time and had turned into hatred. She hated Wang Ru for affecting her reputation. With red eyes, she said, "I didn't mean anything else."

Mrs. Li couldn't bear to see Wang Xin looking like she was about to cry and faint, so she frowned and said, "If you want to fall asleep, go home and don't even think about staying at our house. Hurry up and don't let me beat you out with a stick."

Zhulan looked at Li who was scolding with a dark face but did nothing, and a smile appeared in her eyes. This man talked powerful words but did not take any action. Li was kind-hearted and knew that if he really kicked Wang Xin out, this girl's reputation would be even worse.

Wang Xin clenched her fists, not daring to show her anger. She couldn't afford to offend the Zhou family. She originally thought that the Zhou family had done nothing bad, and she could use this opportunity to get in touch with them and use them to improve her reputation. However, she didn't expect that the Zhou family would not give her a chance. She lowered her head and said, "I'm leaving now."

Zhulan frowned. She still liked Wang Rong more. Sometimes the more cowardly a person is, the more hateful things he does.

Li and the others left and quickly closed the door. "Mom, I don't like Wang Daya. This girl is just like her mother. She is disgusting to see."

Zhao's hand that was picking bracken paused. She looked at people with her heart, but her sister-in-law relied on her intuition. Even though her sister-in-law seemed to be in a hurry all day and was willing to gossip with others, the people who were really good friends with her were not bad. Some people were born with intuition, which made people envy them.

Zhulan looked down at the bracken she had picked and said, "Go buy two pounds of meat and bring it back. I'll make bracken and meat stir-fry for lunch."

Li was delighted and extended her hand to her sister-in-law, "Sister-in-law, give me some money so I can buy some meat."

Zhao wiped his hands and stood up, "I'll get it right away."

Zhulan smiled, how wonderful it was, she didn't have to worry about anything. She looked at the many ferns on the ground that were still unpicked. These were picked by the eldest and second sons when they went up the mountain to get firewood. She also wanted to go to the mountain to take a look, but she didn't dare to go up the mountain because she was afraid of snakes. Then she thought, the heroines in many novels were really amazing, they were not afraid of snakes at all. Anyway, she was really scared to death, the kind that wouldn't dare to walk away when she saw one!
