After killing all the pigs in the Tian Residence, before the meal, Erlang and Silang's side had already started a ruckus. They destroyed the ”Hundred Treasure Bag” that the little guy carried around with him and even robbed the things inside.
Although the item was not worth much, Tian Yuqiao no longer had any good impression of the old house. This group of people were indeed a pack of wolves, and they were the kind that ate people without any intention of spitting out their bones. Didn't that mean that after eating half his meal, old man Tian had already revealed his purpose? He was asking for money from his family? Otherwise, the scholar won't be able to come up with anything for the next year.
Tian Yuqiao found it funny. Did everyone in this old house have water in their brains? He actually wanted to use a meal of pig slaughtering vegetables to get the sympathy of his own Steamed Bun Niang. But from the looks of it, Lady Wang was really touched. She had never received such a 'honor' before. She was about to be tricked by someone just by covering her eyes.
Lady Wang also realized that she was almost going to agree, so she quickly finished the bowl of food and got off the table first, saying that she wanted to help clean up the kitchen.
Madame Li was enraged. She slapped the table and said, ”Sit down. Wow, you've finished eating. You want to leave? Your father hasn't finished yet. Everyone, leave it here. This old man is not just for show. There's no need for you to come back and pay attention to him. ”
”Shut up.” Old Man Tian roared in annoyance.
This time, they were asking for help, so why didn't this old woman ask for help?
The muscles on Tian Chanzi's face slightly trembled. He forced out a weird smile and said to Lady Wang, ”Aiya, this year, your third brother caused trouble outside. His family has lost quite a bit of silver. In the coming year, your fourth brother will be taking the Elementary Scholar examination. There is really nothing in this family that he can sell. ”
”That's true. For so many years, Fourth Brother has been studying hard. I believe he will be able to pass next year.” Mrs Wang responded.
Madame Li's eyes lit up, and she grabbed Lady Wang's arm. Her hook-like hands pinched née Wang painfully.
”Second brother, do you think so too? ”Since you also think that the scholar will definitely become an Elementary Scholar, then your family must strongly support him as well. You can't just speak about this based on your own words.”
Since Madame Gao was such a shitty person, she couldn't be lacking anywhere. At this moment, she naturally had to put on a good show in front of her parents-in-law. Therefore, she also showed her big yellow teeth and said to Wang Shi, ”Aiya, I'm talking about sister-in-law. We can't write any words here, can we? You can't just eat white noodles with rice all day and watch us nibble at home. I heard that you know the rich people in this town. Didn't you send a lot of rice noodles to your house? Why don't you just show us some filial piety? ”
Lady Wang's face immediately flushed red and paled. Tian Yutang, on the other hand, was fuming. He was too lazy to even eat the bone that Madame Li had given him. From the looks of it, that bone was not as delicious as the cabbage he cooked with his mother.
As expected, these people had their own motives. The meal was not that easy to eat.
Tian Yuqiao giggled and looked at Lady Gao, saying, ”Uncle, what are you talking about? Why can't I understand? If I remember correctly, the Village Head and the elders seem to have already sorted out the matters between our two families. What bridge, what road? Aiya, I can't remember. ”
Mrs Gao, on the other hand, showed off her talents and quickly added, ”Bridge back to bridge, road back to road!”
After she finished speaking, she immediately felt that the air pressure in the surrounding seemed to have become somewhat low, and then she felt that the area at the back of her neck was extremely cold. Ye Zichen looked around from the corner of his eyes. All of the people in the house were staring at her with knife-like gazes.
