Chapter 567: Trying Best
Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
Mr. Yan asked Ms. Yan to tell her husband to finish the labor, so he could come and offer some help. It was settled that he would get 700 wen a month, and he would have three days of break during each month.
Ms. Yan was very satisfied with the arrangement.
This salary was not going to end up in Ms. Yan’s hands.
Ms. Niu even wanted to steal her dowry. If her family was not this strong, she might have even offered Ms. Niu her portion as well.
A mother-in-law would always have her ways to torment her daughter-in-law.
So, the payment was going to be given to Ms. Niu no matter what.
If her husband was strong enough, he might get 20 or 30 wen out of the 700 from his mother’s hands. But even that might not be possible.
Anyways, she was going to try.
In the end, it did not matter. If her parents planned to give her husband a raise, he could possibly conceal the real amount then and keep the extra with himself.
As long as he would have the work, it was going to be fine.
Most importantly, she could earn her own profits from this. That would be enough for her.
Two or three years later, she was going to ask her parents and brothers to help her get separated from this family.
She might have to face some losses on the surface, but as long as they could live separately, they would have a good life ahead.
Nis. Yan had made her plan for her life.
They all returned to their homes after the deal was signed.
Ms. Yan got off the donkey cart before she reached the village. She went into the field to meet her husband.
Shao Yunduan and Qiao Xuan were heading home on their donkey cart when they were almost bumped into by a wagon behind their back. The donkey got startled and Qiao Xuan almost fell off it.
“Who is that? So rude!”
Shao Yunduan let out a sigh of relief seeing that she was not hurt. He watched the wagon heading away, eyebrows raised.
Qiao Xuan pursed her lips. She had lost her good mood.
How annoying!
Gossip arose when they were eating lunch, and the answer was found.
The wagon must be holding the concubine of the Zhao Family.
The concubine was back again after being away for a few days?
Qiao Xuan mentioned in front of the family that the wagon almost bumped her and Shao Yunduan’s donkey cart.
Ms. Fang got so furious when she thought of what happened last time, “What is that concubine going wild for? Bumping people away in the village. If someone gets hurt, even the Zhao Family can’t solve the problem!” Taotao added. “Good that you are fine, or we will not let her go!’
“Yeah, true!”
Yang Xiaoni was confused. “Strange. I heard that large families have their rules and concubines can not leave home at their wish. What is she doing here with her own family, and she is back so soon!” Everyone was startled hearing what she said.
True, what was she doing here again?
She never went home before, and now she was coming over so frequently.
Also, nothing much was happening at Ding Jiahuai’s home. Hence, the Zhao Family should not care about Ding Jiahuai either.
They were not related, who would care about anyone’s business.
“Anyway, that is their own problem, we can leave them alone.” Ms. Fang said, “Don’t gossip about it, maybe they are up to no good!”
They were curious but not nosy. They needed to stay away from someone’s concubine in case it would bring trouble to them..
