âThis is the title deed to a manor in Nirvana Sun, Nanyang County. There are also five thousand taels of silver. With this land and this silver, itâs enough for the four of you to live on.â
Xiao Baoxin pushed it in front of Madam Cheng.â Think about it carefully.ââ
âIf you agree, I will get someone to send you to Nirvana Sun tomorrow.â
âYou want to chase us out of Jiankang City?!âCheng shi had also gotten a big pie on the day, and she was still her mistress in Jiankang City, with land and silver in her hands. Who knew that it was the price of chasing them out.
âThank⦠Did Third Master know? Or is this what he meant?â
âJust take it as his intention.â Xiao Baoxin said softly. âIâll tell you what Iâm talking about. Think about it carefully and see if itâs worth it. I donât want to force you. You walked your own path, so donât regret it.â
âDo you want to take the silver and live freely outside, orâ¦You can live freely outside.â
The only thing missing was the silver. It was impossible for the Cheng family of the Xie family to enter. It was not an option at all.
Mrs. Cheng also understood Xiao Baoxinâs meaning, but she did not give up. Third Master Xie had boasted to her and brought her to the Xie family. Her three sons would be out of the world in the future. They would no longer have to suffer with her and look down on others. As a widow, she could enter the Xie family. Even if she was a concubine, it was already a high social status.
However, she was really hesitant. Third Master Xie had said everything very well. Madam Wang was also a soft dough. Everything was centered around him.
But it didnât seem like that was the case at all.
The soft dough in Third Master Xieâs mouth smashed into her front door. If it werenât for the fact that the guards of the Xie residence didnât give her face, she would have been smashed. This wasnât something a soft dough could do. It was like a stone in a latrine pit, smelly and hard.
The more Madam Cheng thought about it, the more aggrieved she became. Why did she draw such a circle when she was drawing a big cake? She pulled her handkerchief and cried,
âFuren doesnât know that my husband died before I was twenty years old. I raised two children by myself. If I didnât inherit my husbandâs tofu house and barely make a living, I wouldnât even be able to find a place to die. It was still Chancellor Xie, Third Master Xieâ¦I pity you. Youâve treated me very well all these years, but youâre letting me go just like that. I canât accept it without a word of explanationâ¦â
Hearing this, Xiao Baoxin slapped the wooden box and picked it up to leave.
Cheng shi was so shocked that she forgot to cry. Halfway through her tears, she subconsciously hugged the wooden box with both hands.
What kind of operation was this? Why did he take back the conditions just because they didnât agree?
He didnât allow her to reminisce about the past?
âMadam, what are you doing?â âI didnât say I wouldnât leave.ââ
Xiao Baoxin blinked.â Then it seems that I misunderstood what Lady Cheng meant. Since Cheng Niangzi has decided, I wish Cheng Niangzi a safe journey. Now, go back to your residence to pack up and travel lightly. Tomorrow morning, I will send someone to send you on your way.â
The corner of Madam Chengâs mouth twitched. These words did not sound auspicious, and she was taboo.
âI have already agreed to Madamâs conditions. Do you think itâs possible for Third Master to meet San Lang? San Lang usually respects Third Master the mostâ¦â
âWake up, Cheng Niangzi. This is the condition. Otherwise, just pretend 1 never came.â Xiao Baoxin tried to pull the wooden box back. It was hard to imagine that Cheng Shi was so weak that she couldnât even catch a chicken. When she was with Xie San Ye, she was so strong that Xiao Baoxin couldnât pull the wooden box back.
What kind of determination was this!
Xiao Baoxin felt an inexplicable admiration for the Cheng family.
âI agree to Madamâs conditions.â The Cheng Corporation was quick to cut the Gordian knot. This fellow really didnât want to be hypocritical with her. She just wanted to say a few words to express her feelings. If it didnât work, then it didnât work. Did she have to immediately turn hostile and leave?
Xiao Baoxin nodded and finally let go. Cheng shi heaved a sigh of relief.
âPersonally, I think you made the right choice. A man with a family and no responsibilities, a real estate and five thousand taels of gold and silver. If it were me, I would choose the latter.â
âMoreover, if you donât enter the Xie family, your son will always be the legitimate son. Thereâs no need to be humble and fight for those three melons and two dates. The sons of concubines from big families might not be as glamorous as you think. Some people didnât even know how they died.â
Xiao Baoxin told the truth.
Madam Cheng held the wooden box. When Xiao Baoxin finished speaking and walked out, she could not help but ask,
â.. Can my son still be surnamed Xie?â
This Xie Xian didnât explain. Xiao Baoxin smiled and said,âAs you wish. It wasnât like the Xie family of Chen County was the only one with the surname Xie in the world.â
Xiao Baoxin pushed the door open and walked out. The three young men rushed over with serious and tense expressions. They looked at her with guarded expressions, as if they were afraid that she would eat their mother.
âMother.â
âDonât be rude. Iâll send Furen downstairs.âMrs. Cheng held the wooden box in her hand and did not leave her body.
Xiao Baoxin turned around and nodded slightly.âAfter saying that, he left without looking back, followed by Mu Jin and You Mei.
âMother, why did she come? Are you going to bring us into the Xie family?â San Lang asked gloomily.
Although he had asked the question, it was obvious that it was not the case. The other party walked faster than a rabbit. There was no way to pick someone up like this.
âLetâs not enter the Xie family. Weâll go back and pack our things. Tomorrow, weâll set off for Nanyang County.â
Since she had made her decision, Madam Cheng was relaxed and had no more hesitation.
The Xie family was not easy to control. They threw the title deed and banknotes here without the slightest worry that she would go back on her word. It was because they had the confidence. With her own strength, there was no way she could shake the Xie family.
After entering the restaurant, she had chased away the hoodlums who had been pestering her and sent them to the government. Then, she had thrown silver at her.
One hand after another, using both hard and soft tactics.
How could she not accept it?
With Third Brother Xieâs character, staying in the Xie family and not even showing his face, she was afraid that she would not even get these benefits in the end.
She knew that Xie Xian was in charge of the Xie Residence. Although Third Xie was Xie Xianâs elder, he really wasnât as extravagant in terms of money as Xie Xian. She should stop while she was ahead. An egg could not touch a stone.
With the title deed and silver notes in her hands, Xie Xian and his wife did not say how they would deal with the property and restaurant in Jiankang City. Since they did not say anything, they let her deal with them.
Cheng shiâs eyes turned and a plan came to her mind.
âGo home and pack up first. Pick a few loyal and reliable servants and take them away. Donât bring anything else.â
âWhat about Abba?â San Lang asked stubbornly.
Madam Cheng sighed.â Your father canât even protect himself now. Why donât we find a place to stay first and then try to meet again in the future?â He is your father, and he will always be your father. He will never disown you. Go.â
Erlang winked at Dalang, and the two of them half-pushed and half-coaxed Sanlang back home.
Madam Cheng called Shopkeeper Tong over and sized him up.
He had been working in her restaurant for six or seven years. She had hired him since the restaurant opened. He was capable and tactful.
âYou, I heard that my wife died last year. Have you found someone?âshe asked..
