Farm Girl Turns Everything Around: Sly Husband, Let's Farm

Chapter 552: Chapter 552: Wronging Xiaomai

“This doesn’t seem right…” After a moment of stupor, Qiao Changshun spoke up.

Driving all the Tong family members to live in the new house after the wedding, leaving only Xiaomai and the third Tong son behind in the old house, how would this sound from the outside?

Normally, Tong eldest son and his family would remain in the old compound, along with Tiehu, the Qian family, Tong Xingda, and Zhang family elders. The second and third Tong sons would move out.

“There’s nothing wrong with it, the old house is outdated. If we can live in a new house, naturally we’d opt for the new house,” Tong Tiehu conceded.

Qiao Changshun “…”

He turned his head to consult with Xiaomai.

Xiaomai stared with her peach blossom eyes, a blank look on her face.

Honestly, she had considered getting married with Tong’s third son from early in the morning, but she had not contemplated such detailed issues.

Moving to the old house of the Tong family?

Although the house of the Tong family was made of blue tile and brick, it was old. Additionally, maybe due to having such good living conditions in the past, and after crossing over, the Qiao family house was also in good condition, so now she was expected to live in an aged house which had been there for decades.

Well, even if Tiehu was in the house, she was still a bit reluctant.

After blinking, she immediately figured out the reason.

This wasn’t about the house, it was about the Tong Family members.

She didn’t like people like Zhang family and Zhu Hongyun.

Now that these people have moved away and want her to use the house in which they had previously lived, she was overwhelmingly resistant!

“This might indeed wrong Xiaomai a bit. When the family is better off, we’ll renovate the house again,” Tong Tiehu said, seeing that Xiaomai kept silent.

“So it’s like this…” Qiao Changshun rubbed his hands together.

Seeking good fortune indeed took time.

But everything was too sudden, which meant that Xiaomai needed to pack up two wooden boxes, carry the boxes to the Tong family, and that constituted her marriage.

“Will there be a banquet then?” Asked Qiao Changshun again.

“We’ll invite relatives and friends from both sides, but not the villagers,” Tong Tiehu replied.

Even if they wanted to invite them, the family didn’t have any money…

The current expenditure was sustained only by the game Tong’s third son hunted.

If only inviting relatives, that would mean that Tong’s third son would have to hunt again tomorrow.

He’d been hunting frequently these days, and it was becoming harder and harder to find prey.

With this thought, Tong Tiehu said, “Changshun, don’t worry. Once the our family’s situation improves, I will definitely throw a grand wedding for the young couple. There will be a new house, a village-wide celebration, even a theatrical troupe.”

“In short, everything we owe them today we’ll definitely make up in the future.”

Hearing this, Qiao Changshun felt restlessly uncertain.

Improving the family’s livelihood?

How could the Tong family improve their living conditions?

They were relying on this scant farmland and bean sprout sales, concurrently divided amongst the three brothers. It was quite difficult to improve with this.

In the end, without Xiaomai’s money, they could only rely on Tong’s third son hunting.

Qiao Changshun looked at Xiaomai. As it was Xiaomai’s wedding, as long as Xiaomai was willing, he would have to agree.

At the same time, everyone’s gaze turned to Xiaomai.

Xiaomai cleared her throat quietly and said, “Let’s follow Grandpa Tong’s plan and keep everything simple.”

“Didn’t Auntie buy a gold Ruyi? Return it to the daughter’s cabinet and use that money to cover all the wedding expenses.”

She didn’t like the Ruyi that Zhang family had chosen at all.

Instead of letting Tong’s third son go hunting again, it would be better to return the gold Ruyi.

She would return the half of the silver that Zhang family had paid, leaving only Tong’s third son’s one hundred taels. This would be enough for the banquet.
