Pay it back when you have money?

Granny Jiu glanced at Liu Dahua, then slowly took out a handkerchief from her bosom and opened it.

One dollar, one dime, one cent... I counted and counted...

"I only have three dollars and seventy-five cents left. Leave seventy-five cents for me and you can take the three dollars."

Looking at Grandma Jiu's gray old clothes and the fact that there was nothing good in the house, Liu Dahua could only take the three dollars.

"I will definitely pay you back."

Granny Jiu said indifferently, "Go quickly, the child's illness is important."

After Liu Dahua left, Xu Zijin was a little curious: "Grandma Jiu, does this person often come to borrow money?"

Granny Nine smiled and said, "Not just money, but everything. Food, clothing, and bedding. There is nothing I won't lend."

"And she's not the only one. Few people pay back the money they borrow."

"That's all. During the first two years of the affair, her husband brought some of his family members and secretly dug up my husband's ancestral grave."

Xu Zijin was shocked: "Tomb robbing? After doing something like this, how dare you ask you to borrow money?"

Granny Jiu had a calm expression and a cold gaze: "What's the big deal? There are so many people in the world who are thick-skinned and have bad consciences."

"At this age, what kind of people have you not seen?"

"Now you know why I dare not show off my wealth?"

"Dahua's parents-in-law used to be servants of the Niu family. They know how wealthy the Niu family was in the past."

"He knew there was treasure in the Niu family's ancestral tomb, so he was naturally tempted."

"But what he didn't expect was that before my father-in-law died, he had everyone take out all the stuff inside."

"Later, they were all snatched away."

The tombs of wealthy families are all large.

Their tombs are also magnificently structured, with countless burial chambers inside a large tombstone.

When the head of a family dies, each person is placed in a room, and the couple share one room. After death, they will be reunited in the underworld.

There are some burial objects on the dead body, but most of them are in the tomb.

The Niu family is a family with hundreds of years of history.

Granny Jiu said that when the country was at its richest, several streets in the provincial capital were owned by the Niu family.

Xu Zijin looked at Granny Nine with a complicated expression: "How about you stop living here?"

Granny Nine shook her head: "Where are you going? I don't know anyone outside. There's no one to talk to if I go out. No one will know if I die in bed for three years."

"Here, someone comes to borrow money."

"They know I never go out, and if I haven't seen them for a few days, they will definitely climb over the wall to get in."

"At least someone is buried."

Hearing the last sentence, Xu Zijin's eyes swelled and hurt, and his chest felt uncomfortable.

Some people say that children are like a country’s atomic bomb: you can not use it, but you cannot live without it.

Without offspring, being bullied when you get old is a kind of happiness.

Why?

At least someone came.

It’s better to have someone come than no one. At least someone will care if you die in bed.

"I'll come once every three days."

Granny Nine laughed: "Not now, I can still move."

"Although my small feet can't walk far, I can still cook for myself and feed the chickens and ducks."

"When I am too old to move, you will take care of me in my old age."

I couldn't stop my tears and my throat was choked with sobs that I could hardly make a sound.

Xu Zijin nodded and uttered only one word: "Okay."

Although she possessed countless treasures and was very rich, money could not buy true love, let alone descendants.

"Silly child, why are you crying?"

Xu Zijin hugged Grandma Jiu and said, "From now on, you will be my real grandmother."

"My grandparents had a very bad relationship with my mom, so they treated my three siblings like outsiders."

"Growing up, I never knew what it was like to have a grandmother, and you gave me that feeling."

"Granny Nine, when you want to live alone, you can live alone."

"If one day you say you want to have some fun, I'll take you there."

"Don't worry, I won't take your things. In fact, I am very rich, richer than you think."

Granny Nine rolled her eyes when she heard this: "Why not?"

"You are my granddaughter, and those things will be my inheritance from now on."

"The things in my hands were accumulated by the Niu family for generations. They were not stolen or looted. I can't throw them away!"

"Don't worry, I won't give you the things until the day I close my eyes."

Xu Zijin felt a little embarrassed.

She recognized him as a relative just to give this lonely old man some psychological support.

She really wasn't greedy for her property.

There are millions of materials in my own space, and it is only a matter of time before they are turned into money.

Xu Zijin had a new idea.

——She had to hurry up and make a lot of money, so as to avoid being misunderstood in the future and being accused of her recognizing her relatives just to get the old man's things.

Xu Zijin went back. After Grandma Jiu closed the courtyard gate and the main door, she took the money and went into the bedroom.

This is a small two-story house, originally built by Grandma Jiu's parents-in-law for their eldest daughter, who is also her eldest sister-in-law.

Grandma Jiu’s eldest sister-in-law is called Niu Yiting, a woman who studied abroad and read a lot of books.

When she was young, she was a famous socialite in the provincial capital.

But she met the wrong man. The man who loved her madly used her dowry to support his mistress and raise children, and blamed her every day for not being able to give birth to a son.

Later, the man stole her things and basically never came home.

After her only daughter married and lived abroad, she sold the family assets and returned to the countryside.

They live there for decades.

On her deathbed, she told the secret of the yard to Grandma Jiu, the only member of the Niu family.

Standing in the real secret room of the Niu family, looking at several large boxes of gold, jewelry, calligraphy and paintings, and antiques, Grandma Jiu felt very complicated.

As the only daughter-in-law of the Niu family, what she held in her hands at that time accounted for only one-fifth of all these things.

After all, as a daughter-in-law, I am no match for other people's flesh and blood.

But what’s funny is that in the end, it was she, an outsider, who sent away all the people in the Niu family.

After putting the money away, Grandma Jiu calmly left the secret room.

The Niu family is very smart. They divide the secret room into clearly secret rooms and dark secret rooms.

Those who know the truth will not say it out loud themselves, and only ghosts and gods know that there is such a secret treasure trove under the master bedroom.

Entering the kitchen, Grandma Jiu took a bowl of new rice and soaked it in a wooden spoon.

Looking at the rice in the water, she felt like she was drooling. She hadn't eaten white rice for a long time. This rice must be delicious.

But after Xu Zijin returned to the army, Wang Yuanyuan came to find her.

"Zi Jin."

"Why are you here? Aren't you on duty today?"

Wang Yuanyuan shook her head: "No."

Seeing this expression, Xu Zijin's face twitched: "What's wrong? Are you in a bad mood?"

"Uuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu"

It would have been fine if she hadn’t asked, but once she asked... Wang Yuanyuan started crying!

Xu Zijin: “…”

——You make me look like your mother...

"Come inside. If you stand outside and people see you, you'll be laughed at."

Wang Yuanyuan also knew that this was wrong, but she couldn't control her tears.

These days, although on the surface she was living a good life, in fact she was feeling very depressed.

In the Yang family, only her mother-in-law would pay attention to her. The rest of the people were cold, and that damn Wang Lu made her even more angry.

Go back to your mother's house. If you talk too much, your mother will say you deserve it.

I told her not to like Yang Shengjun, but she did it anyway!

Today Yang Wenjing wanted two new skirts that she had just made.

The style and fabric of this skirt were given by Xu Zijin, and she went to the town specially to find someone to make it.

When she refused to give it, Yang Wenjing mocked her and said that she was getting complacent now that she had married into the Yang family.
