The beloved baby has a space

Chapter 102 The Wang Family Made a Fortune
Wang Chuangui listened from inside the house, not thinking much about it; his mother must have her reasons for doing so.

However, his mother never liked to reason with her family and always did things directly. Often, they would only find out in the end that the old lady had a plan for everything she did.

Grandma Wang wasn't really trying to scare her sons; she genuinely felt that they were far too short-sighted.

"You're all so short-sighted! I thought you were hiding your talents back then, but now I realize you're all idiots, hopeless fools. Even if I dug a brick out of a latrine and put it in a flower garden for decades, it would smell good by now. But you're all just stinking and stubborn!" Old Mrs. Wang said angrily, her gaze towards Old Wang seemingly murderous.

Old Wang was extremely wronged: "How was I supposed to know they were so stupid? If I had known, we would have just gone to the cesspool and brought a brick to raise them!"

"Better to die for my friend than for myself," so of course I should stand with my wife at this moment.

Old Mrs. Wang sneered, "It's not too late for you to hug her now!"

The sons: "..."

—Isn't that incredibly insulting?!
Liu, on the other hand, was filled with worry. She was making pancakes in the kitchen while listening to the sounds coming from the main room.

Wang Dalang and the others were alright; although they liked the pancakes, they still considered their brother's feelings.

Wang Silang, Wang Wulang, and the others were already drooling.

The reason is simple: this pancake looks very oily and juicy, completely different from the usual dry pancakes.

The fat from the meat that Old Mrs. Wang bought was rendered into oil. At Old Mrs. Wang's instruction, Liu was also willing to use oil, adding a few bits of minced meat and spring toon leaves to the pancakes. Even before they started frying, a rich aroma could be smelled.

Wang Dalang helped tend the fire. Once the pot was hot, Liu put the pancakes into the pot one by one, first frying them in the oil at the bottom. After they became fragrant, she scooped them out and stuck them to the side of the pot.

The pancakes quickly covered the entire circle, some of them yellowish, gradually developing a caramelized aroma and turning a golden-yellow color that made one's mouth water just by looking at them.

Finally, it was done. Liu handed one to Xiao Ayu first, while the others watched eagerly.

Each person was given a pancake, and Xiao Ayu had just taken a bite when she felt the fragrance linger in her mouth.

The meat has a subtle aroma, which, combined with the fragrance of toon leaves, washes away the greasiness of the meat and oil. The pancake is soft yet crispy, making a crunchy sound when you bite into it, and after a couple more chews, your mouth feels soft and tender.

"Mom, the pancakes you made are so delicious! Ayu loves them!" Little Ayu took only a small bite and then held the pancake up in front of Liu Shi. "Mom, Ayu is full. Give these to you."

In the past, Xiao Ayu would always give food to Liu Shi first, but Liu Shi never wanted to eat first. Now, Xiao Ayu always takes a small bite herself first and then shares it with Liu Shi.

Liu smiled and lowered her head, taking a small bite as well. She almost greedily savored the delicious taste on her tongue, but quickly suppressed that craving.

Seeing Ayu's expectant gaze, Liu told a lie: "Ayu, eat it. Mother doesn't like this."

Led by Xiao Ayu, the other boys in the family still remembered that they had parents, but when they took the things to the main room, the adults all said they didn't like them.

The pancakes look like they've used plenty of filling; making more wouldn't be enough.

If the adults eat it in just a few bites, they'll definitely feel even more hungry and weak, so it's better not to eat it at all in the first place.

Grandma Wang noticed the looks on everyone's faces and felt it was necessary to change their habit.

Things will eventually get better at home. If this kind of personality continues, it will seem petty. It's impossible to change it all at once. Let's take it slowly.

Habits are changed gradually and imperceptibly.

"Eldest son, come here." In front of everyone, Old Mrs. Wang took out two heavy silver ingots from the house and handed them to Wang Chuanfu. "Take these 20 taels of silver to Village Chief Hu to thank him for helping out."

Village Chief Hu directly bought them three extra acres of land, and they should remember this kindness. Moreover, running around and doing all that must have cost them a considerable amount, and just because Village Chief Hu didn't mention it doesn't mean they should pretend not to know.

Wang Chuanfu had never seen so much money before, and his hands were shaking.

"Stand up straight! You're the eldest, don't act so timid!" Old Mrs. Wang scolded sternly. "You're scared like this by just 20 taels of silver? And this is for someone else! If it were given to you directly, would you faint? If you can't handle this, leave it to the third son. Don't do such shady things!"

In front of his younger brother and sister-in-law, Wang Chuanfu was scolded by his mother. His face turned pale and then red, but he still didn't say anything about handing the money over to his third brother to handle.

"Son, I'll go now." Wang Chuanfu walked out with his head down, looking rather dejected.

Old Mrs. Wang took out another two taels of silver and handed it to her third son: "It's still early. Take this two taels of silver and see if you want to go to the town or to Butcher Huang's house in the next village to buy 20 catties of meat. Ask him to give you 5 catties of pig offal as a bonus. Also, buy two sickles, a wood-chopping knife, and 10 chicks and 10 ducklings."

Wang Chuanyuan was a little dizzy from listening to this when Old Madam Wang said, "I'll give you two taels of silver. Buy all the things I mentioned. You can only buy more, not less. I won't give you any extra silver. If there's any left over, that's your skill. Keep it for yourself and don't need to report to me."

Zhang's eyes lit up immediately.

If this is handled well, they might be able to save some money on the side, and it would be money that's been saved openly, so their mother definitely wouldn't take it away.

Madam Zhang hurriedly said, "Mother, there are too many things. I'm afraid my husband will get confused. Let me go with him."

Grandma Wang: "Whatever you want, but don't even think about slacking off on the housework."

"I'll finish my work first, it'll be done soon!" After saying that, Xiao Zhang rushed out the door. All she had to do today was sweep the yard; the work in the fields wasn't hers yet.

After arranging things for them, Wang Chuanman looked longingly at Old Mrs. Wang.

Grandma Wang said, "The land outside the village has been handed over to outsiders to cultivate, but you should go and take a look so that they can familiarize themselves with whose land it is. As for the land in the village, don't be silly and cultivate it yourselves. Only keep 20 mu, and for the rest, go and see who in the village is willing to cultivate it, and let them cultivate it."

Wang Chuanman: "Mom, what if the villagers don't want to plant it?"

Some villagers are concerned about their reputation and don't want to work for people from their own village, which is understandable.

"That's something you should handle yourself. Do you want me to teach you how to walk? How to eat?"

Wang Chuanman was covered in cold sweat: "...Son, go and think about it."

“The village’s fertile fields haven’t been planted yet, and we need to set a plan today so that planting can begin tomorrow. If you don’t handle things well today, don’t come back tonight. Go outside and reflect on your actions.”

Wang Chuanman: "..." He had a little question: why were his two older brothers not punished, but he was?

Grandma Wang stared at Wang Chuanman: "Theoretically speaking, all 30 mu of land are yours. Working on your own land, what, are you feeling wronged?"

"……without."

Wang Chuanman first went to see the 30 mu of fertile land in the village, and then chatted with the villagers who passed by, telling them that the land had become his own.

The news that Old Wang's family had become rich spread like wildfire throughout the village.

"This is incredible! The Wang family has struck it rich!"

"Their family has become big landowners!"
