Chapter 1135: No Responce

Editor: Henyee Translations

Fifth Grandma Ding was startled. She nodded with a smile. “Yes, yes, Mrs. Shao, my unfilial son…”

“Didn’t you drive them out of the family with nothing given to them?”

Fifth Grandma Ding was startled.

Yang Xiaoni responded with disdain, “Exactly! She’s living a good life now, and you think you can just take her back? It’s not that simple, Aunt. Spare us your words. Your family has caused so much trouble, and you’re still bothering Grandpa Land Officer? Our Fifth Sister-in-law knows the whole story, and your words won’t make any difference!”

Fifth Grandma Ding became furious, wanting to scold Yang Xiaoni, but she held back and forced a smile. “Fifth Mrs. Shao, it didn’t start this way. They were just angry words that were taken seriously. I thought they’d come back after venting their anger and staying away for a few days, but it turned out like this.”

“I love my granddaughter too! She got so angry that she killed someone! It’s not like I feel good about it. How can you blame me? I’m heartbroken!”

“Fifth Mrs. Shao, you’re a reasonable person. You should be the judge! Erzhu and his wife have gone too far!”

Qiao Xuan smiled in response. “Whether I said those words out of anger or not doesn’t matter. What matters is that Ding Xiang is still alive. But without you, things wouldn’t have ended up like this. You’ve had a good life these past two years, yet you never reached out to them. Why now?”

Yang Xiaoni sneered. “Now that Erzhu and the others are being paid, things have changed!”

Fifth Grandma Ding and her daughter-in-laws grew infuriated, their faces turning red, but they dared not confront her.

The eldest daughter-in-law of the Ding Family attempted to flatter Qiao Xuan with a smile, “Fifth Mrs. Shao, my husband is capable and intelligent. Why not let him take charge of Zhang Village? He’d do a much better job than Erzhu Pipe! No one would dare to slack off, and he can handle everything for you!”

The Third Daughter-in-law chimed in, “And my husband is very understanding, even more so than Erzhu! He can handle any situation!”

Fifth Grandma Ding turned to Qiao Xuan expectantly. “Yes, yes, our sons may not be as clever as our brothers, and our brothers may not be as clever as our sons. But if we let our sons take over, it would be a vast improvement over their current leadership. We wouldn’t even ask for much payment, just 1 tael of silver per month!”

The two daughter-in-laws nodded eagerly, saying, “Yes, yes, we aren’t as greedy as those other people!”

The whole family seemed to agree that even one liang would suffice. They believed that being in charge of such a large tea field and numerous fertile lands, along with the ample money they possess, should be more than enough for them.

With hundreds of mu of fertile fields and abundant harvests, they had enough rations to sustain themselves for a year. Moreover, there were plentiful fruit trees laden with fruits and a vast pond brimming with fish, shrimp, and lotus roots, providing them with a variety of food options.

On top of that, they could discreetly sell some tea leaves for additional income. The potential for making money was undeniable.

Shao Yunduan and Qiao Xuan were far from the capital, and Shaoding Village was not located nearby either. However, with intelligence and resourcefulness, there was a great opportunity to accumulate wealth.

Qiao Xuan smiled with a hint of amusement and asked, “So, you wish to take on this responsibility, regardless of whether you accept Brother Erzhu or not?”

The two daughter-in-laws glanced at their Mother-in-law but remained silent.
