195 Small House in the Spatial Pocket
Needless to say, Old man Wang received Old Madam Wang’s loving touch.
The slap made him stagger and almost lose his balance.
“Old woman, what are you doing? Everyone is here!” She should at least give him some face in front of the kids.
Old Madam Wang smiled but did not say anything.
The sons and daughters-in-law pretended not to see it. They lowered their heads or looked up at the sky.
“Our debt of 2,000 taels of silver has been resolved.” Old Madam Wang made the long story short and did not intend to explain the details to everyone. “Not only that, Shopkeeper Zhou even gave us 3,000 taels of silver as a token of gratitude.”
Wang Chuanyuan lost his balance and fell to the ground.
What?
W-what?
2,000 taels, 3,000 taels?!
Was there something wrong with his ears, or was his mother crazy?!
On the other hand, Madam Zhang looked at Old Madam Wang a few times.
She was curious why her mother seemed unfazed when mentioning the large sum of money.
Her mother-in-law was also from the Zhang family like her. Although her aunt’s family was richer than theirs, it was definitely not to this extent.
Could it be that their horizons had been broadened during their days in the wilderness?
Madam Zhang could not figure it out, so she decided not to think about it.
Forget it. In any case, her mother was an intelligent person. As long as her mother-in-law was around, they did not have to be too smart.
Wang Chuangui was a little calmer. He had the personality most similar to Old Madam Wang.
Of course, he only resembled the former Old Madam Wang. He was smart, calm, intelligent, and methodical.
His words were not as sarcastic as the current Old Madam Wang.
Ever since Wang Aibao went missing, the family rarely talked about children. However, after Old Madam Wang’s personality changed, she never returned.
“Mother, why did Shopkeeper Zhou give us so much money? Or does he need us to do something for him in the future?” Wang Chuangui only vaguely remembered that his family had borrowed a large sum of money to find his sister.
Old Madam Wang and Old man Wang had originally hidden this matter from everyone and told them that they did not have to care about this debt. Wang Chuangui only knew a little about it.
Old Madam Wang: “It’s nothing. I went over to help him clean up his household and saved his life.”
Everyone was speechless.
Wasn’t this too casual?!
They still remembered that the little girl called Zhou Chuchu had said that their family’s assets had been robbed when she came.
Now, their mother had brought back 3,000 taels of silver and even offset the debt of 2,000 taels, didn’t this mean that their family background was unimaginably rich?
Their mother had actually helped him snatch back his assets in such a short period of time???
It turns out that their mother was so powerful?
Wang Chuanyuan’s heart was filled with question marks.
Since his mother was so powerful, why hadn’t he seen her earn money for the family all these years? Especially after they arrived at Hu Family Village, she let them become the poorest family in the village.
However, no matter how puzzled Wang Chuanyuan was, he did not dare to ask.
He probably wouldn’t hear the answer he wanted anyway.
“You don’t have to ask much about the details. I’m too lazy to tell you.” Old Madam Wang covered her yawn and only said, “This sum of money is just to let you know that our family also has a foundation now. In addition, the person who is going to work for Shopkeeper Zhou has to do well.
We won’t touch the 3,000 taels of silver for the time being. Leave it with the gold, silver, and jewelry for now. Don’t play any tricks in your hearts. You can’t withstand such great fortune now. In the next three years, our family has to maintain our current state.”
Wang Chuangui understood what his mother meant. “Our family is rising too quickly now. If we take out such a large sum of money at once, it’s impossible for others not to be jealous. It’s better to keep a low profile now. In any case, our family doesn’t have to worry about food and clothing. Why should we consider so much?”
Wang Chuanyuan nodded as well. “In any case, I’ll listen to Mother.”
Since the men had already expressed their stance, the women naturally had nothing to say.
Liu Shi wanted to say something, but thinking that her husband had yet to return, she decided to swallow her words.
It would not be too late to talk about it when Wang Chuanman returned.
Old Madam Wang only wanted everyone to know that they had such a sum of money at home so that these brats could feel at ease.
However, she had already made up her mind that in the next three years, she would never let the Wang Family rise up all of a sudden. She would take the strategy of slowly boiling a frog in warm water and let the surrounding people see how the Wang Family prospered.
She would try her best to let others ignore Ah Yu’s existence.
Yes, all the dignified reasons were just to protect Little Ah Yu.
Once the Wang Family rose too quickly, not to mention whether it would harm Ah Yu’s luck, some people would definitely come to investigate how they made a fortune and quickly accumulated so much wealth.
Old Madam Wang had gone out to help Shopkeeper Zhou and used the gene repair agent. Of course, she also left Divine Doctor Xue there to stop others from talking.
Speaking of Divine Doctor Xue, Old Madam Wang left two drops of the gene repair agent for him.
After Divine Doctor Xue drank it, he really didn’t go crazy anymore, but he didn’t completely return to normal.
He could not remember anything from his past, and he had become silent. However, he could not bear to part with his dog-beating stick and scolded whoever touched it.
It felt like he had been cured.
He took the initiative to stay behind and temporarily stay with the Zhou family in the name of taking care of Shopkeeper Zhou.
Divine Doctor Xue indeed had some medical knowledge, and his skills were even better than the doctors on their side. Shopkeeper Zhou was naturally happy to keep such a person.
...
In short, Shopkeeper Zhou was very grateful for Old Madam Wang’s help. If not for Old Madam Wang, not to mention his life, even his poor little granddaughter would have been harmed.
In the face of benefits, humans would not retain a shred of humanity.
The gift of 5,000 taels was Shopkeeper Zhou’s intention. The key was that he had also asked the Wang Family to send someone over to be the butler. 150 taels was just the salary on the surface.
The benefits of becoming the Zhou family’s butler was far more than the money on the surface.
“Alright, disperse. Let’s talk tomorrow when everyone is here.” Old Madam Wang looked at Liu Shi. “Chuanman is not around now. You can make the decision on his behalf tomorrow.”
Liu Shi opened her mouth, but she still agreed.
At this point, the two of them had been husband and wife for four years. It was not necessarily true that they knew each other’s thoughts, but she roughly knew what her husband would choose.
There were two things to do the next day, so everyone was troubled. Even the children were a little excited and only fell asleep late at night.
Unlike them, Little Ah Yu directly entered the spatial pocket.
During this period of time, she was very busy. She was busy learning literature, practicing martial arts, and chatting with her neighbors from time to time.
Sometimes, he would even help deliver buns with Wang Wulang and the others.
...
She was energetic all day and was thus extremely sleepy at night.
It had been a few days since she had entered the spatial pocket to work. She only threw her consciousness in and started to sleep.
Now, Little Ah Yu finally realized that the spatial pocket had changed.
“Elf, why is there a small house here? Where did it come from? Is it fake?” Little Ah Yu noticed that there was actually a small green house beside the outlet of the Myriad Spirit Water.
It was built with green stones. She could even see through the stones. It was amazing.
The house was not big, and there were no doors around. Little Ah Yu craned her neck and looked inside, only to see water inside.
She thought that this was like an illusion formed by the elf. As she reached out to touch it, she felt a warm sensation on her fingertips.
