Chapter 268: Moving to Town

Su Sanlang paused for a moment before saying, “When the time comes, I’ll have to trouble Auntie and you to buy groceries and check this area. Hu was in charge of this area previously, and the village chief will help. When we move to town, I’ll leave this to you. It’s not a small number to ask for a few thousand catties of vegetables a month.”

“The salary is the same as before.”

Su Sanlang looked at Su Xiaozhi and saw that she was obviously relieved. He looked away at Madam Cao and said, “Auntie, I’ll have to trouble you with this.”

Su Xiaozhi became more and more distant from him. Su Sanlang did not force anything. He did what he could. Everything else was up to fate.

Su Xiaozhi smiled and said, “Brother, Sister-in-law, don’t worry. I’ll definitely control this area for you.”

Madam Cao also said, “Thank you for your trust, nephew. Don’t worry. With me around, as long as I’m alive, nothing will go wrong.”

Madam Cao was promising Su Sanlang that she would definitely control it strictly and not let anyone take advantage of it.

Su Sanlang nodded. Su Xiaozhi was unreliable, but Madam Cao was.

With Madam Cao around, Su Sanlang was not worried.

“Then it’s settled. We’ll move to town on the sixth of March. From then on, I’ll leave this place to you.”

After Su Sanlang made the arrangements, there was nothing else to say.

Madam Cao nodded and pulled Su Xiaozhi away.

After going home, Su Xiaozhi sighed. “Third Brother and I are still distant. He went to town to buy an apartment. It’s such a big deal. I only found out now. If I had known earlier, I might have been able to go to town to buy an apartment.”

In the past few years, her mother-in-law should have had 60 to 70 taels of silver in her hands.

Even if they couldn’t buy a big house, they should be able to buy a small one.

For some reason, Su Xiaozhi felt a little sad.

Madam Cao sighed and shook her head. She did not say anything.

Sometimes, people could not rely on both sides. The Su family was not on good terms with Su Sanlang and Chen Hu. It was impossible for Su Xiaozhi to be on good terms with both sides.

Didn’t Su Xiaozhi understand? She understood, but she was just too greedy and wanted everything.

God was already very good to her. Forget it, she owed Su Sanlang a favor. She would educate the children well and repay this favor if she had the chance in the future.

Madam Cao believed that if Su Xiaozhi was like Chen Hu and his wife, Su Sanlang would definitely treat her well. Unfortunately, Su Xiaozhi could not do it.

And people like Chen Hu and Madam Qian were probably rare in this world.

Su Sanlang told Su Xiaozhi and Chen Hu to go to Old Master Wang’s house to tell him about the two families moving to town. Old Master Wang naturally tried to persuade them to stay. He knew that he could not.

Su Sanlang and Chen Hu’s families had accumulated enough wealth in the past few years. This small village could not hold their families anymore.

Fortunately, Su Sanlang had feelings. He still bought vegetables from the village at the same price. With this, every family in the village earned a few taels more every year.

Su Sanlang also rented the land of the two families to Old Master Wang’s family clan. They only had to pay 10% of the food every year. Su Sanlang and Chen Hu were generous, and Old Master Wang had said many good things about them.

Everything was arranged, and the days returned to normal.

February 28th. That night, the Chen family came to look for Chen Hu’s family.

Father Chen and Mother Chen sat by the roadside. Mother Chen cried loudly. “You heartless person. You would rather give the land to someone else than to your family. Your biological father, mother, and biological brother. You don’t even care about them. God…”

The Chen family was outside Chen Hu’s house.

Chen Long and Chen Qiang both said good things to Chen Hu, wanting to use their brotherhood to move him.

Chen Hu did not even open the door. The family did not come out either. Someone from the village came out to take a look. Even the village chief was here.

Old Master Wang roared, “What are you doing? You removed him from the family back then. At that time, you were so ruthless, but now you want to go back on your word. What do you take the law for? Do you think you can disobey it just because you want to?”

Now that they regretted it, it was too late.

Mother Chen argued, “We weren’t willing at that time either. Someone bewitched my son. Who knows what other people are thinking?”

Mother Chen was unwilling to give up like this. She knew that there might be no benefit in this, but they could not just watch Chen Hu’s family enter the town.

There was no benefit in making a fuss, and there was no benefit in not making a fuss. It was better to make a fuss so that they would feel more comfortable.

Chen Hu originally wanted to ignore her, but when he heard Mother Chen’s words, he couldn’t help it.

She pushed open the door and walked out with his family.

Chen Hu stared coldly at Father Chen and Mother Chen and gritted his teeth. “Look carefully. My Shi’s life was saved by my brother and sister-in-law’s family. They also helped treat my leg. They also helped treat the scars on my wife’s face. My Daniu and Erniu are both literate and learned from them. If anyone can do this to my family, I, Chen Hu, will treat them as my biological brothers. Can you?”

“Stop shouting in front of my door. Must you force me to drag you to see the officials? Alright, let’s go now. We’ll go to the town and find the officials to judge and see if I, Chen Hu, still owe you.”

Chen Hu walked to Father Chen’s side and dragged him towards the town.

Father Chen was shocked and hurriedly broke free from Chen Hu’s hand.

“Pfft, you rotten thing. Who wants you? Why are you making a fuss? Your hearts are harder than iron. What did I expect from you? Pfft…”

Father Chen gritted his teeth in disdain. If they really saw an official, his family would definitely not have a good time.

They didn’t get anything and even got angry.

Mother Chen also cried, but no one paid attention to her.

Old Master Wang sighed and waved at the villagers. “Disperse, disperse.”

The Su family and the Chen family were unwilling, but they had gone too far back then. What was the use of regretting now?

Perhaps it was because the consequences were right in front of their eyes, but every family in the village had been very peaceful these few years. As a result, their lives became better.

Old Master Wang looked at Su Sanlang’s family. He patted Su Sanlang’s shoulder and said, “You and Hu are fine. Don’t take it to heart. Have a good life.”

Su Sanlang nodded calmly.

He and Madam Zhao walked to Chen Hu and Madam Qian.

Madam Zhao pulled Madam Qian’s hand and patted it. Madam Qian smiled at Madam Zhao.

The Chen family’s commotion had no effect on the two families. In March, Su Sanlang’s family and Chen Hu’s families began to pack.

On the sixth day of March, they hired two ox carts to help them move. The two families officially moved to town.

Knowing that they were moving today, many villagers sent some things over. Some sent a basket of eggs, some sent a piece of cured meat, and others sent a chicken.

The ox cart was filled with things, and families walked into town.
