Chapter 187

She thought and thought, but she really couldn't think of a better way. The two daughters-in-law's natal families are not rich, so she can't count on them. Zhao Lan and Bai Zhi, the ones with money, can't even get close to each other now, not to mention borrowing six taels of silver, even a liter of rice can't be borrowed now.

Finally, he gritted his teeth and took off the jade pendant around his neck, and was about to hand it to Mrs. Zhang, but Mrs. Zhang stopped her: "Mother-in-law, it's better for a man to treat it as a thing. It's not good for a woman. The owner of the pawnshop I know how to watch people order food, and if it is a woman, I am afraid I have to lower the price."

The old lady Bai said: "Yes, let the man go, let Da Zhu go."

Mrs. Zhang hated secretly, no matter what good things this old woman thinks of, she only thinks of the first room, and when she is beaten and working, she only thinks of the second room. In her eyes, what is the difference between the second room and the third room?This is because she has no money. If she has money, she might kick their second wife away.

She swallowed her anger fiercely, and said with a forced smile: "Grandma, two people are better than one, at least they seem to be more powerful, and the shopkeeper of the pawn shop has to be cautious."

The old lady Bai thought it was reasonable, so she nodded: "It's reasonable, then let Erzhu go together, two brothers, there must be someone to take care of you."

Mrs. Liu is not happy anymore, she was very happy at first, this jade pendant may be worth much money, if Da Zhu is allowed to go alone, Da Zhu will hide ten taels and twenty taels by himself, and then give the pawn ticket to "Long" Lost', who knows how much money this jade pendant has been pawned in total?

Let Erzhu go together now, wouldn't she not be able to hide a single coin?

"Mother, there's no need for two people to go together. Why don't you just treat it as a jade pendant? This jade pendant looks exquisite, but I don't think it's very good. I guess it can't be worth a lot of money. It's not bad if it can be worth ten taels." , do we still need two big men? We have to keep a man in our family, in case Doctor Lu brings someone here, what can our women's family do?"

Mrs. Zhang said with a smile: "Sister-in-law said this, as if Dr. Lu is a bandit and a hooligan. How often has Dr. Lu troubled people and brought officials here, but it was just to understand, and he didn't do anything to us. , don’t you still have great treasures and wealth at home?”

The old lady of the Bai family understood Liu's character best. How could she be able to hide her careful thinking from her eyes, she immediately squinted and snorted: "Don't make any foolish calculations there, don't say any more, just let the elders Zhu and Erzhu went together, and the two brothers took care of each other."

It is true that she is partial to the big house, but the premise is that she has to distribute the family's property, instead of letting the big house do it privately, which is two different things.

Mrs. Zhang reached out to take the jade pendant from Old Madam Bai's hand, and said with a smile, "I'll call eldest brother and Er Zhu to go."

Mrs. Zhang turned around and left, only then did Mrs. Liu come to her senses: "Mother, what did you mean by that just now? What have I planned?"

The old lady Bai snorted coldly, "Do you know in your heart that I just opened my eyes and closed my eyes, but I just wanted to save you some face, don't treat me as an old fool."

The old lady has been a housekeeper all her life, and she also lived with her mother-in-law and sister-in-law in the former Bai family courtyard like Liu. What can be hidden from her eyes?

As far as Liu's idea is concerned, it's all left over from what she used back then.

If I didn't have any skills back then, it would be impossible for me to occupy the largest homestead of the Bai family when the family was separated.
