Chapter 268 Encouraging Old Lady Song to Go to the City

The room suddenly became quiet.

Grandma San quickly interrupted, "Xiaohua, what are you talking about! There are only about 30 people in the factory right now, and there's more than one person in the village. As the team leader's family, how could we possibly have two people go? Then they could say we went in through the back door."

Shen Xia thought for a while and said, "Second Aunt, why do you suddenly want to go? If I remember correctly, your family had a quota at the beginning, and I heard that you didn't want to go, so Aunt came to work."

Shen Xia finished speaking.

Chen Xiaohua looked embarrassed, and then said, "I heard that the factory will set up a college when there are more people in the future. Then the children in the factory will be able to go to school."

Shen Xia finally understood after hearing this.

"That's easy! The factory provides free training. If your child wants to learn, he can pay money! He can also go to school."

Chen Xiaohua's face turned red. Isn't it just that she doesn't want to pay?

Shen Xia certainly understood what she meant and continued, "The wages in the factory are not as high as the income from raising silkworms. Their wages are low, and it's normal for children to go to school without money. You have a high income, so it's okay to spend some money on education."

After hearing this, Chen Xiaohua thought to herself, although that’s what they say, if it’s free, who would be willing to pay for it?

Finally, I could only say awkwardly: "Xiao Xia is right."

"Well, it's just that we only have these people in the factory right now. If the factory gets bigger in the future, we will definitely need more people."

Shen Xia didn't say anything too definitive.

I sat in my third uncle's house for about an hour.

Song Ming took Shen Xia and Song Yun back.

My third uncle and third grandmother saw me off to the door.

Only when you can’t see anyone anymore will you go back.

As soon as Third Grandma returned, her face turned pale.

"Second brother's wife, how can you ask Xiao Xia so directly?"

Chen Xiaohua said dissatisfiedly: "What's wrong with this?"

The third uncle didn't say much. It was not easy for his daughter-in-law to say, so he let the old woman speak.

"I know what you are thinking. Dalang has been looking for someone recently, and you are not happy about it. You think Erlang is about the same age, but why is he always looking for Dalang?"

Chen Xiaohua didn't say anything.

But he also looked unhappy.

The third grandmother continued, "At that time, you were allowed to choose this job yourself. It was you who didn't want to work. Don't complain now."

At this time, Uncle Song next to him also pulled his wife and said, "Why are you arguing all day long? At that time, we all chose to stay at home or go to work voluntarily. Besides, the things that sister-in-law brought back also belonged to everyone. What else do you want?"

When Chen Xiaohua heard this, she realized that she was also worried about her son's marriage, but her husband not only did not speak up for her, but also joined others in talking about her. The more she thought about it, the sadder she became.

"If you think your sister-in-law is good, you can live with her." Chen Xiaohua said without thinking.

When Uncle Song heard this, he was shocked and thought, what nonsense is this woman talking about!

"Do you want to listen to what you said? You are just a lunatic--."

After speaking, he left.

Chen Xiaohua also realized later that she had said something wrong and quickly chased after her husband.

The third uncle watched from the side and shook his head.

It’s better to separate the family as soon as possible since my son has grown up.

After raising silkworms for one more year, we will split up.

To each his own.

After Shen Xia and the other two returned,

I heard a noise at home.

He quickened his pace, wondering what was going on!

As a result, when I entered the house, I saw Old Lady Song cursing in the yard: "You are an uneducated family. You don't even know to visit and give gifts during the New Year. I have raised you for nothing for so many years. You even plotted against my son and gave you the old house. You are a shameless bunch."

I don't know what I cursed before.

But Shen Xia heard this as soon as she entered the door.

Looking at Song's mother's uncomfortable expression and Song Jin's angry face beside her.

Behind Song's mother are Aunt Xiao Liu and several other aunts.

It's just the right time to come and visit!

There are also Fourth Aunt and Song Fei. The three of them can really be found everywhere.

Shen Xia looked at her and said, "Hey! On the first day of the new year, the old lady's eldest son didn't send you anything, but he came here to make a name for himself!"

When Mrs. Song heard Shen Xia's voice, she turned around and smiled, "My eldest son is not such a person. Even if he wants to send something, he will be on the way."

Shen Xia: "Huh - really? You won't be fooled by your eldest son! The time of the New Year is the same every year! If he really wants to, he will send the gifts to your door in his twenties, just in time for the New Year, right?"

When Old Lady Song heard this, she thought it made sense, but she didn't show it on her face.

He said directly: "Even if he didn't send us off, he didn't because he wanted to take us to the capital city to live."

Shen Xia wanted to laugh even more and said, "Old lady, are you still dreaming about this? You won't be deceived by your son!"

"Impossible. He said he would build a yard when he got back, and then take us to live in the capital."

"He has a large family, a large business, and at least eight courtyards. He has many servants, and it only takes a few days to clean a courtyard. If I remember correctly, they have been back in the capital for two months!"

Shen Xia's words changed Old Lady Song's tone.

Could it be——

Shen Xia continued to add fuel to the fire, "And Song Yi, if he also studied in the capital, his grades would definitely be different, don't you think so?"

Then he looked at Song Fei and said, "Aunt Fourth, do you think it would be the same if Song Fei were to get married in the capital city or in the countryside?"

Old Mrs. Song originally had a look of arrogance on her face, but at this moment her arrogance was reduced a lot.

Fourth Aunt's eyes also lit up. They were all smart people, so of course they knew that what Shen Xia said was true.

Mrs. Song hesitated for a while and said, "No, don't fool me."

"Really? I was going to give you some advice on how to get a foothold in the city. Well, since you don't need it, forget it."

After saying that, Shen Xia walked forward.

Fourth Aunt quickly pulled Old Lady Song's sleeve.

Old Lady Song quickly asked, "Are you so kind?"

Shen Xia raised the corner of her mouth slightly: "I don't like you. It's a good thing for me that you can leave. We each get what we need."

Fourth Aunt said, "Tell me! What method?"

"Old lady, you two elders went directly to the city and stayed there after you arrived. You said you missed your son because you are old. Then after you stayed there for three months, Fourth Aunt went to the city to stay again on the pretext that Song Yi was going to study."

The two listened.

Mrs. Song: "Why can't we go together?"

Shen Xia sarcastically said, "Let's go together. Do you think An Minhua is stupid? You two old men will both have a hard time if you go. Do you still want to become a big fat man in one go?"

When Fourth Aunt thought about it, she felt that what he said made sense.

But he kept one more thing in mind: "What if they drive mom back?"

Shen Xia glanced at Old Lady Song. "Isn't it that old lady who loves to cry, make a scene and then hang herself? She cried at the gate of the An Mansion and complained that Master An didn't teach his daughter and didn't serve his parents-in-law. People of status only care about face."

Old Lady Song said with an unnatural expression: "Thank you for this time. If we can gain a foothold in the capital city, we will never bother you again."

Shen Xia glanced at her lightly. The implication of her words was that she was not standing firm and she still wanted to disturb her, giving her face.

Shen Xia sent the two out, and then Jixiang next to him said, "Tell the concierge that no one from the old house can be allowed in without notification."

"Yes, young madam." After saying that, Jixiang went to make arrangements.

Shen Xia stepped forward and took Song's mother's hand: "Don't be angry, it's not worth it for such a person."

Then he looked at the aunts and said, "Sit down and continue chatting."

Several people nodded politely.
