Chapter 343: The Elder's Abacus

so sharp that he immediately saw her arm, which was wrapped up like a baseball bat, and nervously grabbed her wrist and asked."What's going on""Are you hurt"How are you hurtFang Jinxiu annoyed closed...Hu Ai-lan lowered her head in grievance, she didn't utter a single word. Zhao shi couldn't help it first.

"What's there not to understand They were driven out, and they even took the child."

“I told you that fellow with the flowery words wasn't a good person, always putting on an act.”

Village Head Wang's face darkened. He had no way to convince his wife, and he didn't believe Jinxiu's family would do such a thing.

Besides, even if they really just left the children behind and drove away the adults, he felt there was nothing wrong with that.

Who could forgive what Hu Ai-lan did back then

Hu Ailan raised her head and saw that the patriarch was also there. She hurriedly knelt before the two of them, crying with tears streaming down her face.

"Uncle Wang, Grandfather Zong, please have mercy on me, please! Waaaah!"

Seeing her now miserable state, even the village head felt sorry for her. After all, she grew up in the village and was practically raised under his watch. He waved his hand, signaling Zhao to pull Hu Ailan up.

Since Zongyu has already made a decision, you should stop bothering his family's life.

"If you missed it, it's gone. Back then, you didn't want them, and now that they don't want you, it's only natural."

Hu Ai-lan kept her head bowed and said nothing, appearing docile. In reality, no one could see the expression on her face.

"Your old house is still standing. You could go back and clean it up, there shouldn't be any problems living there. As for food and drink..." Wang Village Chief hesitated at this point.

Zhao saw her husband pause and refuse to continue, she immediately jumped out in anger.

"Back then, when you were so generous to Spring Orchid and your son, giving her food and drink freely, remember that Orchid grew up under our watch You wouldn't even be reluctant to give her a little bit of food and drink"

Although Zhao shi was stingy, she did have some genuine affection for Hu Ai Lan.

"Who said I was reluctant My grain seeds have already been distributed to other households in the village, and there is none left."

Couldn't they just keep Hu Ailan forever

The overall idea is to get her to be self-reliant.

After listening for a long time, the old man finally heard something out of her. He said that he thought the girl looked familiar.

"So you're the Hu mother who almost became engaged to my Ah Yu back in the day"

Hu Ai-lan hurriedly nodded and called out timidly, "Master Grandpa."

Her docile appearance won over the old master. A woman should be like this, soft and obedient, respectful to elders, and listen to men in everything she does.

Just like that Fang Jinshi, she's practically a shrew, sticking her nose into everything. It's like all the men in her family died.

He stroked his beard and, with an air of seniority, said.

"You and our family have quite a bit of fate, the old house of the Hu family is in such a state, could people still live there"

Hearing this, Wang Zhuang was taken aback. He couldn't help but detect a hint of something unusual.

"What does Uncle Zong mean by that Do you want to help this child"

Even a man as stingy as Old Zong, who wouldn't give away even a grain of rice from his hand, would hardly take in Hu Ailan.

I never expected Old Master Zong to actually come up with this idea.

If Zongyu's wife was Hu Ailan, Fang Jinshiu, with her shrewish personality, would never have stayed in the Second House.

As long as he could get her out of the way, he thought it would still be easy to control the second wife.

I heard that the second daughter-in-law's family is now living a good life, with plenty of meat and seafood every meal, and they even have three maidservants. With maidservants at their disposal, their household must have accumulated quite a fortune.

Although Grandpa Zong couldn't figure out how their family had suddenly become better off, he only knew one thing: as long as Fang Jinshu was driven away, everything in the second house would be his.

Hu Ailan's card is really good. It would be a shame not to make good use of it.

"Well, can't an old man show some mercy to this poor girl"

"Well, you were almost my daughter-in-law, and now I hear you brought back a child who looks just like Ah Yu"

The old man wasn't truly clueless.

Hu Ailan nodded hastily, "Yes, that's Zong Yu gege's son."

Zong Lao's eyes lit up, oh, he's still a son! This means the child is his eldest great-grandson. Pan Zhi'an's meals.But they were all rejected by him.He didn't feel that his life was hard at all, nor did he think there was anything shameful or pitiful about it.As long as the food fills your stom...
