Chapter 11o: What Are You Smug About?
Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
Madam Fang and her daughter were extremely regretful. Why didn’t Young Master Liu look for them first when he came? Why did he directly find out that the Shao family was here?
The two of them sighed and looked in the direction of the foot of the mountain. When the other villagers saw this, they surrounded them.
Previously, they did not dare to approach the Shao family. Now that Shao Qingyuan had left, they naturally wanted to know how Young Master Liu met the wolf cub. Why did he let him bring him into the mountain?
Speaking of this, Madam Fang and her daughter were a little smug.
Madam Fang smiled and said, “It’s all thanks to our Yulan that that wolf cub knows Young Master Liu. Everyone knows that my nephew just got married not long ago. This new wife is Young Master Liu’s mother Madam Liu’s favored maidservant. The new wife has a good relationship with our Yulan. When she went to the Liu family to see Madam Liu, she brought Yulan along. Yulan heard that Young Master Liu is looking for a hunter who killed two wild boars not long ago. If he wants to enter the mountains, doesn’t he need a familiar hunter?”
Everyone was enlightened. So it was to find a guide.
“Then you didn’t tell Young Master Liu about that wolf cub?”
“Why not? But what kind of family is the Liu family? Who is Young Master Liu? Why would he be afraid of a wolf cub?”
Madam Fang said smugly, “My niece-in-law said that Young Master Liu knows martial arts. Otherwise, why would he dare to follow the wolf cub into the mountain without bringing anyone? Don’t underestimate him.”
“How much money can that wolf cub get by bringing him into the mountains?” someone asked.
Madam Fang really didn’t know about this, but it didn’t stop her from thinking.
Hence, after a pause, Madam Fang stretched out two fingers and shook them. “Definitely.”
“Two taels of silver?”
“Of course. Young Master Liu has always been generous.”
Speaking of the Liu family, Madam Fang and her daughter really talked non-stop.
Madam Zhou’s face darkened. She held the wooden basin and snorted. Then, she turned around and went home.
Her second daughter-in-law, Madam Song, was also in the crowd. Seeing this, she hurriedly followed and took the wooden basin from her mother-in-law.
Madam Zhou walked away quickly. “1 don’t know what’s there to be happy about. Is it worth it for her to be so smug when her nephew marries a maidservant who serves others? What is she thinking? She even took it out and spread it around. Don’t you know that she’s a widow? Look at the men around her. She’s simply embarrassing our Chen family.”
“Mother, don’t be angry. Second Aunt said that after Sister Yulan marries into the Wu family, she will also go to town. We won’t see her a lot in the future.”
Madam Zhou sneered. “She still wants to live in town? How much money does she have? If she goes to town, she will need money to buy anything. She might have to borrow from us again. If she borrows it, she won’t return it. Besides, look at how petty she was just now. Is Young Master Liu being generous by giving him two taels of silver? Even the Gu family’s Yundong is…”
She instantly stopped talking. It was not good to say this outside, and it would not be good for others to hear it.
However, when she thought of Madam Fang’s expression, Madam Zhou felt uncomfortable.
The two of them entered the house one after another. Just as they entered, they saw Niu Dan rushing out.
Madam Zhou couldn’t even stop him. “Hey, where are you going so early in the morning?”
Niu Dan was lucky. He had only been in school for a few days, but he had already met a rest day.
“Where else can 1 go?” Niu Dan had already run far away. Madam Song couldn’t help but laugh. “He must be going to the Gu family. Last time, after eating at the Gu family, he despised my cooking and said that eating meat was like eating grass. Yesterday, when he came back from school, he rushed to the Gu family. Yunshu even gave him a stick of candied hawthorn. Now, he can’t wait to stay in the Gu family.”
Madam Zhou was stunned for a moment. Just as she was about to say something, a shrill cry suddenly came from outside..
