Transmigration: The Evil Mother-In-Law Is Actually Innocent! Chapter 175 - 175 175 Greed1

175: Chapter 175 Greed_1 175: Chapter 175 Greed_1 Zhulan looked at Lady Li, so she was capable of opening up after all.

Although her brilliance was sporadic, Zhulan was already quite satisfied.

“Mm.”

Lady Li was aggravated, her heart filled with particular loathing for Sun’s family, and even less fond of Wang Ru, that poisonous girl.

She declared fiercely, “Zheng’s family must demand more silver, they can’t let Wang Ru off cheaply.”

Otherwise, it wouldn’t quell the anger in her heart.

Zhulan said with a smile, “Don’t worry, Zheng’s family will definitely ask for more Silver Coin.

After all, everyone in the village knows Wang Ru can co up with two hundred taels.”

Digging her own grave, there was no one she admired more than Wang Ru.

How greedy Zheng’s family was!

A fat sheep like this coming to their doorstep, it would be an insult to their ancestors not to slaughter it!

Lady Li’s eyebrows lifted in a smile, feeling comfortable inside.

“Mother, I’ll go ask how much silver they’ve sold for.”

Zhao’s family stopped the older sister-in-law, “Sister-in-law, Zheng’s family won’t say how much silver they got from the sale.

She’s not stupid.”

Lady Li sat back down, indeed Zheng’s family was not stupid.

It was best not to boast in the village without a solid foundation; disasters co easily that way.

Not everyone was like Wang Lao Si, both foolish and dumb.

Having realized this, Lady Li’s eyes shone brightly.

It seed like she had gotten smarter, and Yuguang, gazing at her mother, slowly shuffled closer to her side.

She would definitely spend more ti with her mother.

Her son always said, you are influenced by the company you keep.

Her intelligence must have been contagious from her mother!

Zhulan silently watched Lady Li, who nearly bumped into her, producing an overwhelming sense of greasiness.

Then, looking at Lady Li’s shiny little eyes, she had managed to be smart for once but had reverted back to her original form!

Zhao’s family, seeing their mother’s face, which seed as if she had lost all will to live, held back a laugh.

Mother was only so expressive in front of the older sister-in-law.

Actually, having the older sister-in-law like this was quite good, she could bring quite a bit of vitality to the house!

One morning, the Zheng family finished moving.

No one in the village was able to find out how much silver the old Wang house had sold for.

They only knew that the Zheng family wasn’t superstitious about buying Wang’s run-down house and moved in.

In the afternoon, the neighbors pulled in quite a few green bricks and tiles, and so ca to asure dinsions for wardrobes.

Everyone knew that Wang Ru was going to renovate her house.

The neighbors were busy for half a month, and finally, the work next door was completed.

The roof was replaced with green tiles, and it was said that the floor inside the house was no longer dirt but fully paved with green bricks, and there were custom-built wardrobes, a design never seen before.

Of course, what garnered the most attention was that the boundary wall was also built of green bricks, taller than Zhulan’s—she estimated it to be about nine feet.

Wang Ru had really put a lot of effort into security; even the main gate and the doors were newly made.

Lady Li walked around with others and ca back bragging about how well next door had been renovated.

However, Lady Li had no intention of fixing up her own ho, because she knew that they would be moving away next year.

In the blink of an eye, it was the day Wang Ru moved.

Lady Li went to watch the bustle and ca back gasping, “Mother, next door has raised three big dogs.

I have no idea where Wang Ru got them from.”

Zhulan, “As long as you have silver, such a small matter is not a problem.”

Lady Li grew curious, “Mother, they say the renovation next door cost a lot of silver.

Exactly how much silver does Wang Ru have in her hands?”

Zhulan thought to herself that she’d like to know as well, “You ask , but whom should I ask?”

Lady Li had just wanted to cozy up to her mother when Wang Xin arrived at the door with so restraint, “Granny Zhou, Aunt Zhou, good day.”

Zhulan looked Wang Xin over; the girl’s clothes were clearly styled by Wang Ru, and her makeup also betrayed Wang Ru’s handiwork.

The person looked prettier, and her eyes conveyed sothing different.

Wang Xin had hidden behind her younger sister last ti, and Zhulan had not taken much notice, but this direct contact left her unimpressed, “What’s the matter?”

She knew that having Wang Ru living next door wouldn’t bring peace, but alas, they could not drive Wang Ru away.

Any overt move would only put Wang Ru on her guard.

Then she thought, it might be better to have them under her watchful eye, lest they cause mischief from afar without her knowledge.

Wang Xin carried a basket in her hand, filled with pastries, “We sisters have moved in next door, so from now on, we’re neighbors with Granny Zhou.

I’ve co to pay a visit and hope that Granny Zhou will look after us in the future.”

Lady Li already disliked Wang Xin for resembling Sun’s family and found this statent even more distasteful, “Our families have no relationship; it’s already a kindness that we didn’t obstruct your move here.

Don’t go saying ‘distant relatives are not as helpful as close neighbors.’ You and your sister know the reputation you have; it’s best if you refrain from visiting in the future.

Better leave now!”

Lady Li was selfish.

She also had daughters, and quite a few of them at that.

How could she possibly allow the Wang sisters to co over and tarnish the reputation of the Zhou family girls?

Look after them?

Pah, they should be grateful for borrowing any light at all—they were even greedier than her!

Zhulan didn’t stop Lady Li from making an enemy; the barbed words seed inappropriate for her, but just right for Lady Li, “Everyone in the village knows what kind of sches you’re plotting with the Zheng family.

That we’ve allowed you to borrow our light shows our generosity.

Take care of yourselves and don’t co here again.”

Wang Xin’s face flushed red, the joy of living in a new house gone, her heart filled with resentnt that had turned into hatred over ti, hating Wang Ru for tarnishing her reputation.

With eyes reddening, she said, “I didn’t have any other intentions.”

Lady Li couldn’t stand to see Wang Xin’s near to crying, about to faint expression and frowned, “If you’re going to faint, go do it at ho.

Don’t think you can just fall over here.

Leave quickly, or I’ll chase you out with a stick.”

Zhulan watched Lady Li scold with a darkened face but without taking action, a hint of amusent in her eyes.

Despite her harsh words, Lady Li had no resolve to follow through; she was kind at heart and knew that actually driving Wang Xin out would only worsen the girl’s reputation.

Wang Xin clenched her fists, but even in anger, she dared not show it.

The Zhou family was not to be trifled with.

She had thought that since the Zhou family hadn’t played dirty, she could use the opportunity to connect with them and improve her own reputation by association.

To her dismay, the Zhou family wasn’t giving her a chance.

She bowed her head, “I’ll leave now.”

Zhulan frowned slightly; she much preferred Wang Rong, sotis the more timid a person appears, the more detestable their actions.

Once the visitors had gone, Lady Li quickly closed the big door, “Mom, I really don’t like that Wang girl; she’s just like her mother, unbearable to look at.”

Mrs.

Zhao’s hands paused as she picked bracken, she liked to judge people thoughtfully, while the elder sister-in-law relied on intuition.

Don’t be fooled by how rambunctious she was or her desire to gossip; those who were truly in good standing with her were reputable.

So people have a natural instinct that others can only envy.

Zhulan looked down at the bracken she had picked, “Go buy a pound of at, we’ll stir-fry bracken with at for lunch.”

Lady Li was overjoyed and reached out to her sister-in-law, “Sister-in-law, give so money, I’ll go buy the at.”

Mrs.

Zhao wiped her hands and got up, “I’ll fetch it right away.”

Zhulan smiled contentedly, how wonderful it was, she didn’t need to concern herself with anything.

Looking at the remaining unpicked bracken on the ground and knowing her eldest and second brothers had brought it back from gathering firewood on the mountain, she, too, yearned to visit the mountains.

However, her fear of snakes had always held her back.

Upon reflection, how brave the heroines in novels are, striving for a livelihood without fear of snakes.

As for herself, she was genuinely terrified, to the point of paralysis at the sight of one!
