Reborn as a farmer's favorite, Koi sweet wife super lucky husband
Chapter 16 Playmate
Mother Wu's eyes fell on her two grandsons with heartache, and her resentment towards Ran He became even heavier.
"It's time to discipline Yaozu and Yaozhu. We can't let them become lawless and take whatever they want for granted. If this kind of behavior gets out, where will our Wu family's reputation be?"
The pipe in Wu Younian's hand knocked against the door sill, making a dull sound.
His brows were furrowed, and the house seemed to be always shrouded in a sense of uneasiness and turbidity, without a moment of peace.
Wu Yue was deeply hurt by Ran He's words, and the calculations in her mind began to turn quietly.
She began to plan how to convince her parents to accept the proposal to divide the family business, so that she could free up extra space.
It also provides a place to stay when she returns to her parents' home in the future.
After all, it is not a long-term solution for a family to live together like this.
"Mom and Dad, let's split up. I don't believe that a weak woman like Ran He can live a good life after leaving the Wu family with her three children. Maybe she will come back crying and begging us to take her in soon. By then, won't the initiative still be in our hands?"
Wu Yue's voice was certain, this was undoubtedly a careful calculation.
However, the money Wu Xu brought back became a thorn in his heart.
Even if a portion is withheld in the name of the parents, the remaining portion still needs to take into account Ran He and the children's shares.
For them, this is as painful as cutting flesh from their bodies.
"There's no way to give Ran He money. We have to find another way."
Wu Yue's eyes sparkled, and suddenly she came up with a plan, "Mom, have you forgotten our method? We can make trouble for Ran He and let her leave the Wu family with nothing, and outsiders will not say anything. I heard that she is devoted to Ma Er. As long as we find the flaw between them, won't everything be solved?"
As soon as these words were spoken, it was as if a bright light was lit up for the entire Wu family.
There was a gleam in everyone's eyes. This was indeed an attractive plan.
Before this, although Ran He was obsessed with Ma Er, Ma Er's mind was not pure.
He was just taking advantage of Ran He's feelings and didn't do anything too outrageous.
Perhaps all of this is hidden in an unknown corner and has not attracted enough attention from the public.
At first, everyone just felt that Ran He's behavior was inappropriate, so they limited themselves to verbal reproaches and sarcasm.
The subtle and complex relationship between her and Ma Er has never been explored in depth.
However, now, faced with Ran He's ingratitude and excessive behavior, they decided not to show mercy and must try to capture on-site evidence of Ran He and Ma Er's misconduct.
At that time, they would be able to declare with confidence that she had destroyed the family tradition and thus expel Ran He from the house with justification.
In this way, not only do they not have to bear any financial burden, even if they only give Ran He a meager ration as the last "gift", outsiders can praise them for their compassion and magnanimity.
"Leave this matter to me, mother. If I can successfully get Ran He to leave, you will have to give me more silver in the dowry. After all, if the money is not given to me, it will naturally fall into Ran He's hands. With this balance, do you think it is easier to accept?"
When she said this, her tone revealed a hint of cunning, yet calculating.
Wu's mother was reluctant to agree easily. After all, she had already asked for a generous dowry of seven taels of silver when she got married. If she made more requests, it would undoubtedly exceed the standards of other unmarried women in the village.
However, once she thought about the fact that her daughter's future husband's family was a wealthy one, Wu Yue's position there was secure.
She was sure that wealth would come rolling in, and her heartache was relieved a lot, and she finally nodded in agreement.
"All right!"
……
Ran He returned to the room and carefully examined each child's body.
After making sure that they had no new injuries, she felt relieved.
"Mother has no objection to you protecting yourself, but remember, you must distinguish between right and wrong, understand? At the same time, the most important thing is to protect yourself and avoid getting hurt as much as possible."
Dabao nodded seriously, his heart full of understanding and gratitude towards his mother.
It is rare to have such a sensible mother, and he prays that such days can last forever.
"Mother, Xiao Gou Dan hasn't eaten for two meals in a row. His mother is seriously ill and bedridden. When we gave him food, he was so hungry that he swallowed it down with the shells."
There was a hint of sadness in Erbao's words, thinking of the Wu family in the past.
The lives of these brothers are also quite difficult, so they can empathize with Xiao Gou Dan who is in the same situation.
"Okay, then mother will make more food for you to take to Xiao Gou Dan. We will make plans after his mother recovers."
In the secluded little place of Wujia Village, there are not many opportunities for children to become friends.
Xiaogoudan is almost one of their few playmates, and his family is also poor.
Helping him is like accumulating merit for your own children.
"Really, mother? You are so kind. Puppy will definitely be very happy if he knows about this!"
Ran He gently rubbed the tops of the children's heads, his eyes full of tenderness, "Go, go play with puppy Dan, mother is going to the mountain to dig some herbs, and will be back in about two hours."
After saying this, she picked up the only old backpack in the house.
Even though she has a mysterious space that hides countless rare things, in front of outsiders, these daily work and preparations are still indispensable.
If she went into the mountain empty-handed, it would probably cause unnecessary suspicion and people would think she was going to the mountains to enjoy the scenery.
After experiencing the previous turmoil, Dabao's trust in his mother has deepened.
He didn't insist on following them around, but led his brothers to play with puppy Dan.
After all, they are just innocent children, and it is normal for them to be playful.
Ran He gently turned the doorknob and slowly closed the door, making a dull creaking sound.
Then, she gently stroked the door with her fingertips, and after confirming that it was correct, she turned around and left with peace of mind.
Inside the house, those precious and secret objects had long been carefully hidden by her in the secret space that belonged only to her, leaving behind only some simple and ordinary daily furnishings. Everything was as usual, quiet and plain.
The path leading to the back mountain is winding and requires crossing several vast fields.
It is the busy farming season now, and the sun shines on the golden rice fields.
The water is sparkling, and the hardworking villagers are bending over to work in the fields. Their sweat drops fall into the soil, nourishing this fertile land.
Ran He carried a bamboo basket on his shoulder and moved briskly among the people, completely different from his usual lazy and idle appearance. His sudden diligence attracted everyone's surprised glances and whispers.
