Chapter 387: Speechless

Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations

But they decided not to say anything about it.

After all, they wanted to live a peaceful life, rather than get bothered by unnecessary trouble that ruined their mood.

Eldest Uncle was speechless.

“Whatever you like!”

Ms. Fang struck the table resolutely. “Done!”

However, when the old house was demolished and a new plan was made, they needed to find a place to live temporarily.

Well, they could have borrowed some empty place from the second and the third section of the family, but they would never let it happen. They did not want to be taken advantage of by their relatives.

Apart from Eldest Uncle, no one from the first section of the family would be interested in sharing a place with the second and third section of the family.

In the end, Ms. Fang went to speak with the Land Officer and the clan tribe, so the whole family decided to have a temporary place in the empty house next to the ancestral hall.

They could carry all the stuff and luggage there.

A temporary hut could be built as the kitchen.

Hearing that the first section wanted to build a new house, the whole village was shocked.

“The first section of the family has really flourished. They are building a new house!”

“Yeah, where did they get that money from?

“But they have more and more people moving in, and they need to have new places for those upcoming grandchildren!”

“It is more than building two extra rooms. They are building a completely new one!”

“And they even bought a lot of land around the house! How big will that house be?”

“That is not your concern. They have got a very rich daughter-in-law!”

“26 sets of dowry must have had a lot of gold and silver, enough for the new house!”

“…”

They were talking, full of envy and yearning.

The second and third section of the family never expected that the first section of the family would start to build a new house! They could not help but come to their door, trying to tell them that the old house was still practical to live in, and only two extra rooms were enough, and that there was no need to demolish all and build a new one.

Obviously, Ms. Fang ignored their suggestion.

When they learned that the first section of the family even bought two mu of land around the house in addition, they could not stand it any more.

Second Uncle said, “Eldest Brother, and Eldest Sister-in-law, how big will your house be? Why did you buy the land around the house? Do you have this much money?

Ms. Niu felt so sour. “If you can make money, please let us know about it too!

We need a new house as well!”

Ms. Fang smiled and ignored them.

They were in no position to tell her family what they should do.

Eldest Uncle could not reach his hand into Qiao Xuan’s money, and he could not make any decision regarding house building. So when his brothers came and asked him about it, he had no choice but to say that it was because the old house was too small for them to live in, and that they were doing this for their grandchildren’s sake.

When the second and third section of the family asked about how they made money, he stopped himself from saying anything further.

He did not dare to tell them that Qiao Xuan was paying half of the amount and the other half was earned through selling valuable things.

He did not want his brothers to blame him.

But the Second Uncle found his silence even more suspicious. They believed that he must be hiding something, so they were not very happy when leaving the house.

However, the house to be built by the first section of the family not only included more than two mu of land, but also covered the yard of the neighbor’s house, a small vegetable garden and a small piece of open space around the neighbors place, which came up to a total of more than four mu..
