Chapter 286: Chapter 286

286 Dalang’s House

Old Madam Wang took the 2,000 taels of silver and left.

Chi Tu also knew that this matter was important, but the others had yet to arrive.

It was mainly because their movement techniques were inferior to Chi Tu’s. They were exhausted from following the donkey cart all the way here.

They were probably still recovering their True Qi on the road.

“Mother, why did you go to the back?” Wang Chuanfu happened to see Old Madam Wang walk out from the back of the house. He wiped his face with the towel in his hand and asked casually.

Old Madam Wang replied with a tone of annoyance, “Digging for treasures.”

Wang Chuanfu said helplessly, “Mother, you’re teasing me again.”

Old Madam Wang rolled her eyes in response.

Wang Chuanfu chuckled. In his opinion, not everyone could roll their eyes at him. It was also a fun thing to have someone roll their eyes at him.

Old Madam Wang could not be bothered with this silly son. “It’s already dark. Aren’t you going to call everyone over to wash up and sleep? What are you still standing there for?”

“I saw that there’s a piece of wasteland beside our house, so I thought that since there’s not much to do recently, I’ll tidy it up. It won’t look good to let it remain so desolated.”

Old Madam Wang said, “You’re doing useless stupid things all day long again. Do you have too much strength and can’t find a place to use it on? In that case, build a few more houses for the family. Dalang is already getting married soon. Do you want him to not even have a house in the village?”

Wang Chuanfu scratched his head. “Ah? I was still thinking about planting flowers in the wasteland. I even bought the flower seeds from the Liu family. They said that it’s some peony and whatnot. I thought that Ah Yu would like them.”

“Winter is almost here. What kind of seeds are we going to plant? It’s useless even if we plant them!” As Old Madam Wang spoke, her tone changed and she said, “Give me a handful of those seeds first. Also, don’t forget about Dalang’s house. I’ll give you ten taels of silver. Just build a house at the side.”

In the countryside, ten taels of silver was already enough to build a large courtyard with bricks. Dalang’s house only needed four rooms at most. This sum of money was enough.

Wang Dalang happened to hear it and was a little sad. “Grandma, aren’t there enough rooms at home? Why do you need to build a new house for me? I don’t want it.”

It was as if they wanted to chase him out.

Old Madam Wang didn’t even think about it. “Forget it if you don’t want it! I can still save the money.”

On the other hand, Ah Yu, who was playing with the little chicks, heard this. She turned her head and looked at Wang Dalang in confusion. “Big Brother, with a new house, you can still live in our current house. None of us have a separate house, but you do. How good is that!”

Wang Dalang stared. Eh, he could do that?

Old Madam Wang: “Ah Yu knows more than you!”

Old Madam Wang thought that the Wang Family would have to leave eventually, but Hu Family Village was their root now. Her grandsons could each have a new house in the future.

If they got along well, they could build the houses around each other and turn it into a large estate.

If they did not get along well, they would not be able to fight since everyone had their own house.

As for the main courtyard, she would see if it could be torn down and rebuilt in the future or handed over to someone else.

It was not worth much anyway.

Only then was Wang Dalang happy. He smiled foolishly and said, “Grandma, then I want a new house! Leave a room for Little Sister Ah Yu too!”

He thought that when Ah Yu got married in the future, if she did not have her own room when she returned, she could still live in his house.

After all, most families would immediately vacate the room after their daughter got married.

They were either given to someone else to use as a bedroom or directly used as a storeroom.

There were even many families whose daughters did not even have their own houses.

Their Wang family was rich now and did not lack rooms. Little Sister Ah Yu also had her own room now, but he still wanted to keep a room for her.

What if Fourth Uncle and Fourth Aunt gave birth to another child in the future?
