Chapter 819: Reasoning

Translator: Henyee Translations    Editor: Henyee Translations

Ms.Yan. “….” Honestly…

Ms. Niu exclaimed, “Why do they have to buy connected fields? Can’t they just buy separate ones? I must reason with them!”

Seeing that some families earned hundreds of liang by selling their fields, with some even earning 200 liang, Ms. Niu couldn’t help but feel jealous and bitter.

“Mom!” Ms. Yan inwardly complained and intervened, stopping her. “Mom, the first group of families has their own reasons for buying connected fields, and that’s their business! Even if you try to talk to them, they won’t change their minds, right? Elder Aunt and Fifth Sister-in-law are both

independent-minded individuals. They don’t easily alter their decisions. Don’t ruin the improved relationship between us.”

“It’s simply not worth it, is it?”

Ms. Niu stiffened, contemplating her daughter-in-law’s words.

She didn’t care much about the improved relationship, which didn’t concern her as much. However, one thing Ms. Yan said struck a chord in her mind.

Ms. Fang and Qiao Xuan were both strong-willed individuals who never swayed in their beliefs. Ms. Niu couldn’t convince Ms. Fang or out-argue her. It would only lead to her own frustration.

“Never mind!” Ms. Niu suddenly felt annoyed. “I’ll let it go. They should be grateful that I’m not causing them any trouble.”

Ms. Niu still felt a lingering irritation as if she had lost something significant.

Ms. Yan’s lips twitched, silently relieved that she had managed to stop her. That was a close call.

To appease Ms. Niu, Ms. Yan expressed her respect and admiration, even offering her some of her own savings. This gesture made Ms. Niu beam with delight, thanking Ms. Yan for her profound respect.

Ms. Yan couldn’t help but feel a sense of satisfaction upon hearing those words.

She had acc.u.mulated a substantial amount of private savings, earning dozens of liang each month. Giving a portion of it to her mother-in-law was well within her means.

Just as Ms. Niu was being pampered, Ms. Ma arrived.

Ms. Ma shared the same idea as Ms. Niu, intending to rally her support and confront the first group of families together.

Ms. Yan inwardly cursed—her Third Aunt-in-law was truly wicked. She could create a commotion all by herself and then drag her mother-in-law into it. She never did anything beneficial for Ms. Niu either.

However, before Ms. Yan could say anything, Ms. Niu declined the offer, refusing to partic.i.p.ate.

Ms. Niu had just received money from Ms. Yan, and she couldn’t directly humiliate her daughter-in-law. Instead, she informed Ms. Ma that she would pa.s.s on the opportunity.

Ms. Ma was utterly surprised—this amounted to hundreds of liang!

She was about to persist in her persuasion when Ms. Yan deflected the conversation, diverting Miss Me’s attention elsewhere.

Annoyed, Ms. Ma cursed at Ms. Yan and branded Ms. Niu as a coward.

Fine, she would go and reason with them herself! The outcome was entirely predictable…

Returning home, Ms. Ma felt even more irritated.

She firmly believed that the first group of families was buying others’ fields to avoid sharing profits with them.

Shao Liulang furrowed his brow, expressing disdain. “Mom, stop engaging with them. Why bother getting close to the first group of families? Don’t worry, Mom, I’ll surpa.s.s Shao Yunduan, I guarantee it!”

“Remember, never approach the first group of families again!’

“What?…” Ms. Ma was about to defend herself, but Shao Liulang’s cold and impatient expression startled her. “Okay, okay, Liulang, whatever you say..”
