Reborn as an Ugly Wife in the Countryside-Chapter 1257 - 1259: Two Wen? Wasn’t It Five Wen?

After dinner,

the old Yang took the eldest son, the second son, and the fourth son to the fish pond.

Ever since they had the fish pond, it became the lifeblood of the men in the family.

The women in the family managed the workshop so well, all the silver was earned by them.

This made the men feel slightly competitive; they were determined to make a name for the fish pond.

The eldest son’s wife, the second son’s wife, and Yang Qiu went to the workshop as usual.

After seeing off three coachmen, Yang Ming went up the mountain to see if the villagers had picked all the hazelnuts.

Upon hearing that the Yang Family was planning to buy a mountain, Chu Lian knew it was no simple matter. The Yang Family was probably up to something big again, so he followed Yang Ming up the mountain to see the situation.

The three little ones went to the school in town by carriage, as usual.

At home, only Yang Ming’s mother, Xiaoxiao, Little Liufu, and Wang Xiangxiang were left.

The few of them sat in the courtyard, chatting aimlessly. Before long, Yang Sanzhu’s wife came over, saying as she entered, "Second sister-in-law, how come you went for just a few days and came back? How is Yang Xia? Is she doing well?"

Upon seeing Third Aunt, both Xiaoxiao and Wang Xiangxiang called out, "Third Aunt!"

"Hey!" Yang Sanzhu’s wife replied and eagerly asked, "Second sister-in-law, tell me quickly."

Ever since Yang Ming’s mother visited Yang Xia, she had been smiling more. She cheerfully said, "We went, and everything is fine. That family treats Yang Xia well. Our family is large with over ten people, so it’s not nice to stay and eat for too long at their place, thus we returned, plus there are many matters at home." 𝒇𝒓𝒆𝒆𝙬𝒆𝒃𝓷𝒐𝓿𝙚𝙡.𝒄𝓸𝒎

"That’s good, second sister-in-law. Now your family needn’t worry about anything."

"Yes, no worries now."

"..."

"..."

Xiaoxiao and Wang Xiangxiang listened to the two talking about Yang Xia, and it was clear that Yang Ming’s mother was very happy.

After a while, Yang Sanzhu’s wife asked, "Yang Ming’s wife, what’s the plan with the back mountain? Lately, villagers have been going to that mountain, and I couldn’t stop them."

"Third Aunt, it’s okay. It’s not certain whether we will buy the back mountain or not," Xiaoxiao felt this shouldn’t be rushed; if they didn’t buy the mountain, someone might be more anxious than them.

"Yang Ming’s wife, let me tell you, these days, your Third Uncle went to town to sell tofu, and saw villagers also selling food in town."

"Hmm, I heard."

"But their sales weren’t good. Selling at two coins a pound, they didn’t sell much." Thinking of how their food didn’t sell, Yang Sanzhu’s wife felt elated, thinking those people were wicked-hearted.

"Two coins? Wasn’t it five coins?" Xiaoxiao asked in surprise.

"It started at five coins, but when no one bought it, they lowered it to two coins."

Upon hearing this, Xiaoxiao’s lips curled into a smile; maybe those hazelnuts could be hers again!

Thinking about how worthless that stuff was, Yang Sanzhu’s wife couldn’t help but advise, "That stuff isn’t valuable. If you ask me, it’s better if you don’t buy the mountain."

Xiaoxiao smiled; since Yang Wei’s incident, this Third Aunt had changed, "Hmm, let’s not rush this."

Before long, relatives of the Yang Family started coming by, all asking about Yang Xia. The courtyard was peaceful and harmonious.

No one mentioned the matter of earning silver; soon, they all left.

At noon, Yang Ming and Chu Lian came back, Xiaoxiao asked, "Honey, how was it? Did they pick all the hazelnuts?"
