Reborn as an Ugly Wife in the Countryside-Chapter 1386 - 1388: Fourth Son Has Grown Up

"Alright, let’s go with Aunt Lan Hua’s suggestion and settle these two matters together tomorrow." Yang Dong nodded in agreement.

With the two major issues resolved just like that, Aunt Lan Hua finally felt relieved, and her smile grew even wider. She glanced toward the two people sitting in the high seats, "In-laws, in-law mother, we’ll handle this as Yang Dong suggested, what do you think?"

Aunt Lan Hua still symbolically sought the opinion of Yang Dong’s parents.

Old Man Yang nodded, "Aunt Lan Hua, let’s follow what our fourth son said. You just wait at home tomorrow."

"Alright, then tomorrow we’ll wait at home." Aunt Lan Hua said as she stood up, finally showing signs of leaving, "You all get busy, we’ll head back first."

Seeing that Aunt Lan Hua was about to leave, the people of the Yang Family also stood up and followed her out. After all, certain courtesies must be observed.

The group walked toward the main gate, with the elders of both families exchanging polite words.

Just as Aunt Lan Hua was about to leave, she suddenly remembered something her family had reminded her of. "In-laws, it’s harvest time now, and everyone needs to use ox carts and horse carts. Could we borrow yours?"

"I know your family is also harvesting corn, and we’re not in a rush. Once you’re done with your harvest, you can help us with ours."

Aunt Lan Hua had laid it out so plainly that Old Man Yang couldn’t refuse her. He replied, "Sure, once we’re done with ours, feel free to use the ox cart and horse cart."

"Alright then, I’ll wait for that." Now Aunt Lan Hua was thoroughly satisfied and left with a smile. 𝐟𝚛𝕖𝚎𝕨𝗲𝐛𝚗𝐨𝐯𝐞𝕝.𝐜𝗼𝗺

The group returned to the house. The family was rather puzzled by the fourth son’s actions today, and they needed a reasonable explanation. The second son’s wife couldn’t hold her curiosity any longer and asked, "Fourth Son, what are you up to exactly? What were you thinking giving them five taels of silver?"

In response to everyone’s questions, Yang Dong explained that Aunt Lan Hua’s situation was different. If her family managed to sell hazelnuts at a high price and she reneged, it would be troublesome. By purchasing the hazelnuts, it would prevent her from causing a fuss in the future.

The reason for giving five taels of silver was to make Aunt Lan Hua feel the price was fair, even more than double the usual wage, thereby earning some goodwill from her.

Also, Aunt Lan Hua’s family had a lot of hazelnuts. Calculating it, that’s about more than one coin for two pounds of hazelnuts.

Although other families were paid by the usual wage, if you calculated by weight, it would come to about the same price. There was no reason for other families to feel it was not worthwhile. If Aunt Lan Hua was given double wages, then other families would surely have something to say.

Moreover, everyone had already stamped their fingerprints. Even if their family sold the hazelnuts, as long as Aunt Lan Hua didn’t complain, other families wouldn’t dare come forward.

Having heard Yang Dong’s explanation, the family was astonished. Since when did their fourth son become so shrewd?

Seeing him like this, they truly felt that he had grown up.

At first, they were worried that the fourth son would struggle with this marriage arrangement, but after seeing his performance today, they inexplicably felt reassured, thinking he should be able to deal with Yang Xiaocui’s family.

Old Man Yang said with great relief, "Fourth Son, since everything has been more or less settled, you should take your mother to town tomorrow. Buy what needs to be bought and finalize everything tomorrow."
