Farm Girl Turns Everything Around: Sly Husband, Let’s Farm - Chapter 441 - Chapter 441: Chapter 441: The Poorer My Family Is, The Better

Chapter 441: Chapter 441: The Poorer My Family Is, The Better

“No need, just let it be.” Tong Tiehu shook his head.

“Grandpa Tong, Sanlang gave all his secret savings to me.”

“If he gave it to you, then it’s yours,” Tong Tiehu said seriously, “even if you and Sanlang get married in the future, that will still be your stuff. The Tong Family won’t take a single coin of it.”

Qiao Xiaomai blinked, “I don’t mind.”

“I do.” Tong Tiehu strongly emphasized these three words.

Qiao Xiaomai locked eyes with him for a moment and conceded, “Okay! I’ll listen to Grandpa Tong.”

“Xiaomai, what Grandpa is trying to do is to bring our family members back to their senses, and toughen them up a bit. They have never experienced hardships. Maybe once they really do, they may find our current situation not that bad.” Sanlang explained.

“Is that so?” Qiao Xiaomai gave Tong Tiehu a surprised look.

‘Can one’s true colors be changed that easily? Is this method efficient at all?’

“Yes, that’s why Grandpa now thinks the poorer our family, the better. To let them suffer a bit.”

QiaoXiaomai”…”

She bit her spoon, her eyes flickered, no longer knowing what to say.

‘The poorer, the better…’

Would this make their resentment grow even stronger?

Well…

Actually, the greater the uproar, the more beneficial it is for her…

Last night, she thought carefully about the people of the Tong Family. Compared to the Qiao Family, the Tong Family was somewhat simpler.

However, whether in the past or in the present, she was used to living by herself.

If she marries Sanlang and moves into the Tong Family, living with a bunch of people, she definitely would not get used to it.

Therefore…

If the Zhang Family causes a big stir and forces Tong Tiehu to split the family, that situation would actually be to her advantage.

Thinking of this, she lowered her gaze, scooped up some ice cream and put it in her mouth.

These thoughts are too selfish, and should not be made visible.

She must act more obediently.

With that in mind, seeing that Tong Tiehu had finished his porridge, she immediately passed him a napkin and a palm-leaf fan, “Grandpa Tong, wipe your sweat.”

Tong Tiehu curiously accepted the tissue, and upon seeing it was white, fragrant, and even printed with flowers, he immediately examined it in his hands, “How is this made?”

Qiao Xiaomai just shook her head.

She only knew from her reading about Cai Lun’s improvements to the Papermaking Technique, as for how to produce these tissues, that would definitely require machinery!

“Try making it.” Tong Tiehu said, “If all paper could be this soft, it would save a considerable amount of cloth.”

The rich people use silk when they wipe their face, nose, hands, and bottoms.

The hand, face, and nose wipes can be washed and reused, but the bottom wipes definitely need to be discarded.

So, if there was this kind of paper available, it could undoubtedly save many fabrics.

“Ummm… Let Sanlang research about it in the future.” Qiao Xiaomai nodded.

Tong Tiehu solemnly grunted in approval, carefully stuffed the tissue into his pocket, and started fanning himself with the big palm-leaf fan.

“Xiaomai, honestly, it’s unfair to you to have you marry Sanlang at this time.”

“No, it’s not unfair at all.” Qiao Xiaomai quickly shook her head.

“We’ll wait for a while. As soon as the situation at home stabilizes, I’ll start preparing for your marriage.” Tong Tiehu said.

Qiao Xiaomai, with the spoon in her mouth, “Ok.”

Actually, she’s not that demanding. As long as those troublemakers stay far from her, it’s completely alright to suffer a bit more.

The three of them continued to chat casually. Shortly after, the oxcart arrived in town.

Sanlang went to Jiji Restaurant. Shopkeeper He acted like he knew nothing, and started weighing the game carefully.

Several dozens of big and small game animals ended up weighing a total of twenty-three taels of silver.

That deer alone was worth a lot of money, without it, the silver would be more than halved.

The three of them headed towards the County Town. The Tong Family’s lands have been confiscated and incorporated by the government office. If they want to buy it, they can only go to the County Government Office.
