Madam Qu was stunned. ‘What did you say?”

‘What wood?”

All the furniture in their house was gone now. What wood could they sell?

Zhao Yuan protected Yan Tingting behind him and said to Madam Qu, “Mother, Master Yu just said that other than furniture, he also collects the wood used for building the house. I’m not too sure about the details. You should go and ask!’

Madam Qu was pleasantly surprised. She did not expect the wood of the house to be accepted for sale as well!

Before she could react to the surprise, her sons and daughters-in-law urged her, “Mother, let’s go ask quickly!” They did not take Yan Tingting’s slap to heart at all.

Madam Qu reacted to it and hurriedly brought her son and daughter-in-law over.

Yan Tingting watched them leave without looking back. She leaned her head on Zhao Yuan’s shoulder and cried.

Zhao Yuan comforted her softly. “When Mother and the others’ lives get better, they won’t make things difficult for you.”

Yan Tingting sobbed and denied it in her heart. In the past, when they led a life of hunger all year round, it was better than now.

Madam Qu ran to the dam of Youjia Village. Everyone was queuing up. Madam

Qu was anxious. He Chunbai pointed ahead and said, “Mother, Village Chief Zhao and Auntie Yang are almost there. We’re all one family. Let’s go stand there too!”

Madam Qu had just scolded the other party fiercely and could not bring herself to do so. He Chunbai hurriedly said, “Mother, there are too many people. What if we wait until it’s our turn and Old Master Yu has collected enough wood?! Moreover, we don’t know how long we have to wait in line!’

Their furniture had already been sold at a low price. If they saw the opportunity to earn money slip away, not to mention the sons and daughters-in-law being dissatisfied, even Madam Qu would not be able to get over the hurdle in her heart.

Madam Qu walked towards Village Chief Zhao and Auntie Yang shamelessly and smiled at the people in line. “We’re together.”

Zhao Lanzhi ‘s mother had seen thick-skinned people before, but she had never seen anyone so thick-skinned. “Pfft, what do you mean you came together? I’m not blind!”

With her three sons around, Madam Qu was even more unreasonable than

Zhao Lanzhi’s mother. “You’re a busybody!’

Zhao Lanzhi’s mother was not someone to be trifled with. “I’m being nosy. Yet you’re in the right to cut the queue. Let me tell you, quickly get lost. Your mouth is wicked. The Zhao family is really unlucky to be in-laws with your family!’

Madam Qu said angrily, “That’s still better than your Zhao Lanzhi being unwanted and staying at home to become an old spinster!”

As soon as these words were spoken, Zhao Lanzhi’s expression changed drastically. “I’m going to tear your stinky mouth apart today!”

Auntie Yang’s expression darkened. Zhao Pengfei was still wooing Zhao Lanzhi. After Madam Qu stirred up such trouble, it would probably be even more difficult for the two children to be together.

Zhao Pengfei had wanted to stop the two of them from arguing just now. He did not expect Madam Qu to say such things. How sad would Zhao Lanzhi be, and how much would Zhao Lanzhi’s mother dislike him? Zhao Pengfei roared at Madam Qu, “Enough! Get lost!”

Madam Qu widened her eyes. “I’m your second brother’s mother-in-law! You have no manners at all!”

Zhao Pengfei said coldly, “Don’t force me to hit you!’

Zhao Pengfei was extremely strong. Even the three sons of the Qu family combined could not defeat him.

Their faces immediately turned pale, and they hated Madam Qu for insisting on causing trouble.

Of course, Madam Qu refused to leave and instead turned to target Auntie Yang. “In-law, are you going to let your son bully me like this?”

Auntie Yang could not tolerate her anymore. “We don’t have any in-laws! Get lost! ”

Madam Qu widened her eyes in disbelief and threatened, “I’ll let Tingting and Zhao Yuan divorce now!”

Auntie Yang was not afraid at all. “If you can convince her, it means that she’s not fated with our Zhao family. I won’t force her!”

Madam Qu was stunned and gritted her teeth. “Don’t regret it!”

Once Yan Tingting left, she would see if her two grandchildren blamed her!

Auntie Yang did not want to talk to her anymore. Madam Qu steeled herself and refused to leave.

Zhao Pengfei walked forward and grabbed Madam Qu’s eldest son. “Are you getting lost? If not, I’ll continue hitting him!”

Seeing that her son was beaten up without any way to resist, Madam Qu immediately wailed. “Damn it, you’re bullying us!”

Her earth-shattering cries attracted the patrolling bailiffs of Youjia village. The bailiffs asked Zhao Pengfei about the reason for beating others and immediately chased Madam Qu, her three sons, and her daughters-in-law to the back.

Madam Qu stood at the end of the line with her face covered in dust. Her three sons and daughters-in-law looked at her resentfully, and the entire village people had watched them being a joke again.

At sunset, it was finally their turn. However, it was time for dinner. The storekeeprs had to eat and rest before starting work the next day.

Madam Qu and the others had no choice but to find someone to ask around how much the wood used for building a house could be sold for.

In the end, no one was willing to tell them after asking around for a long time.

Under the disgusted gaze of her sons and daughters-in-law, Madam Qu returned home and suffered all night. Before dawn, she went to line up early.

The wood had to be appraised at the house.

Master Xu followed Madam Qu to her house and looked at it carefully from top to bottom. Then, he said to the expectant Madam Qu and the others, “All the wood in your house is made of cedar-wood. However, it’s still young, and the patterns are not very good. It’s not worth much even if you dismantle it and make it into furniture. The main beam is not very thick, but there are a total of

18. I can give you this amount for the entire house.”

Master Xu gestured a number, and Madam Qu blurted out, “Eight taels?” Everyone looked pleasantly surprised.

Eight taels of silver meant that each family branch could at least receive two taels of silver.

Master Xu shook his head. “It’s 80 taels.” As soon as he said that, everyone froze.

They muttered in disbelief, “80 taels!!”

If they were not refugees, they could have become landowners if they stayed here.

Master Xu nodded, unsurprised. “If you think the price is reasonable, follow me to register.’

Madam Qu finally came back to her senses. She wanted to bargain with Master Xu, but she was afraid of offending him. She rolled her eyes and actually thought of an idea.

Madam Qu lowered her voice and said quietly, “Master Xu, can you give me a higher price? If I get 200 taels of silver, I’ll give you 20%. What do you think?”

From the bottom of her heart, she felt that Master Xu could earn money easily by saying and writing a few words.

However, she did not know that even if Master Xu had seen the wood and evaluated the price, Yu Suisheng would still send someone to double check. If there was a fake price, Master Xu’s reputation in the industry would be ruined. How could he fake it for just 40 taels?

Master Xu’s face darkened. “You’d better find someone else!

With that, he turned to leave.

Madam Qu was dumbfounded. She guessed that Master Xu did not like the money she proposed and hurriedly stopped Master Xu to apologize. Only then did Master Xu agree to take her to register.

Madam Qu and Master Xu went to register and met Auntie Yang again.

After knowing that Auntie Yang’s four houses had been exchanged for 400 taels, Madam Qu was completely envious. Her three sons and daughters-in-law’s resentment towards her rose to another level.

Back then, when they were building the house, their family had a large population. Madam Qu could not bear to spend extra money, but she did not want her three sons to live separately, so she only built a big house. Now, they had actually made a loss of a few hundred taels of silver. Even though 80 taels was not a small amount, they were still displeased.. Originally, they could have more money!
