The powerful minister favors the small farmer's wife alone

Chapter 136: The Gratitude Report
Xu Zhixiang didn't expect that the repairing of the ancestral hall was such an important matter in the clan, that other families would only donate so little, and she couldn't tell if she regretted donating all the silver brought back by Su Laosan.

It's not that I don't want to part with five taels of silver, I'm afraid it's too ostentatious to make people miss.Now the family is not short of these five taels of silver. The original intention of donating is not to be missed by the Bai family, but now it seems that it has become a big hit.

But someone didn't know what Xu Zhixiang was thinking, and pointed to the red paper and asked, "Siblings, does the name on the top belong to your third child? This is five taels of silver, so your family donated it?"

Xu Zhixiang didn't know what to say, she just smiled at people, Su Xiaoye purposely said loudly: "Before we separated, we didn't bring anything out, thanks to the help of the clan, we found a place to live for our family, Now my father is earning money outside, and my elder brother and second brother are working in the Yamen, and the money they earn is enough to support the family. My family thought about donating all the wages that my father brought back this time, as a repayment for the previous care of the family. .”

Someone applauded upon hearing the words, and the others followed suit. In the applause, one could clearly hear someone praising Su Laosan's family for being kind and repaying, but they all looked at Su Boss and Su Lao Er with a little bit of gaze. gloat.

If they hadn't done a terrible job at the beginning, more than half of the five taels of silver Su Laosan brought back this time would have fallen into their hands, right?

This time it's alright, the youngest Su has come to his senses, and he will no longer be manipulated by them, this advantage can't be taken advantage of, they will feel as if they lost gold, right?
Until Xu Zhixiang's family was invited into the patriarch's house, people outside looked at Boss Su and the others with mockery in their eyes.

Boss Su and Second Su both regretted coming this trip. Originally, when they heard that the list of donors was announced today, they wanted to see if there was anyone who was wronged to donate more.

Hearing people say that the five taels of silver was earned by Mr. Su working outside, it was more like gouging out their flesh.

If there is no separation, or the third child is still as easy to handle as before, the five taels of silver are all theirs, so why let him donate it all?

Seeing that Xu Zhixiang and her children were invited into the patriarch's house like stars holding the moon, the eldest and second child were even more jealous.

This woman became more and more flamboyant after the separation.

When Mrs. Bai heard that Boss Su and Second Su went back and said that Mr. Su's family had donated five taels of silver, she rolled her eyes angrily at that time, and was relieved by Chen Ping and Lu Feng's good pat.

He patted the bed and scolded: "The third child is a white-eyed wolf. If he has money, he doesn't know how to be filial to his mother. He donated it to build the ancestral hall. What is there to repair in the ancestral hall? Is that his father? Or his grandfather?"

Everyone was silent when they heard the words, not to mention, there were really memorial tablets for his father and his grandfather, so it was considered filial piety to say that the money was used to build the ancestral hall.

But the more the Bai family thought, it was unfilial for the old three of Su's family to give her the silver that should have been given to her. Maybe it was Xu Zhixiang who tricked her. She was afraid that the third old Su would give her the silver, so she donated it first to change her reputation.

It has to be said that the Bai family has revealed the truth this time, and they are really afraid that they will leave Su Laosan's money, and the Bai family will come to ask for it in the future.

Immediately, Bai wanted to put on her shoes and clothes and go out to the patriarch's house to ask Xu Zhixiang for an explanation. It would be best if Su Huaijiu could return the five taels of silver to her.

But was stopped by Boss Su, "Mother, the money donated to the clan is used to build the ancestral hall. The third child has separated from us, and you will not give it to the clan leader if you ask for it."

Mrs. Bai gasped, "I'm his mother after the separation, and if I have money, I should give it to my mother first."
