Chapter 262: It’ll Be Too Late If You Don’t Go Now

Everyone packed their luggage. It was very frustrating not to be able to take away the big items.


It would be a pity to throw them away, but they did not know who they could sell the items to.


When the people in the surrounding villages knew that they were moving, they were all waiting to gain an advantage.


Even if someone wanted to buy their furniture, the price they offered was not even as high as firewood.


These were all items that everyone had spent a lot of effort to make. They could not bear to sell them at a low price.


Madam Qu felt that it was still money after all. If she left them here, others would take advantage of them. She might as well sell them all.


There were so many things at home that she could not take away. If she sold them all, she could at least save up one or two taels of silver and rent an additional carriage.


Madam Qu said to her three daughters-in-law and sons, “Move the things to the entrance of the village. If someone wants to buy them, as long as the price is not too low, just sell them all. ‘


The eldest daughter-in-law said softly, “Mother, all the furniture is made of cedar-wood. I heard that cedar-wood is quite expensive. Isn’t it a loss to sell it too cheap?”


Madam Qu glared at her. ‘What loss? We’re about to go to the Southern Frontier. There are many people who want to sell these items out. After two more days, no one will want to even pick them up.”


Madam Qu’s words made sense. The daughters-in-law and sons could only bear the pain and agree with her decision.


They carried the things and panted as they walked on the road. Madam Qu was also holding a cedar-wood bench.


Seeing that they were going to sell something, Auntie Yang stepped forward and stood in front of Madam Qu. “In-law, don’t sell it yet. ‘


Before Auntie Yang could finish speaking, Madam Qu glared at her fiercely. Her face was filled with resentment. “It’s none of your business! Your family has become rich, don’t stop others from making a living!”


If not for Auntie Yang’s instigation, how could Yan Tingting not be willing to ask for the instant noodles recipe and let her suffer such humiliation?


Auntie Yang frowned. “In-law, what are you saying!”


When Madam Qu saw Auntie Yang, she wished she could slap her twice. She was already being polite with her words. Madam Qu mocked, “Human language!”


“A good dog doesn’t block the way!”


Auntie Yang was so angry that she almost exploded. If not for the fact that she was the mother of her second daughter-in-law, she would have told her off.


After all, they were in-laws. Only when the family was harmonious could everything prosper. Auntie Yang suppressed her anger and reminded him nicely, “Master Yu might want to buy the furniture back. I advise you to wait first!”


Madam Qu was stunned for a moment before sneering. “You’re deliberately telling me so that I won’t be able to sell anything and make a loss in my own hands!


“I’m telling you! Dream on!”


If Yu Suisheng really wanted to buy back the furniture, he would definitely release the news so that everyone could keep the items.


However, only Auntie Yang knew.


Madam Qu was certain that she was deliberately stopping her.


That was all Auntie Yang could say. “Believe it or not!”


She straightened her back and walked away. Madam Qu gritted her teeth.


They were both married, but Auntie Yang had married the village chief from the beginning. She also had three sons. Her sons were all shorter than Auntie Yang’s sons. Auntie Yang had a happy life, and she had long become a widow. Even now, she was still racking her brains to manage this family.


Madam Qu was indignant. The resentment all over her body made her three daughters-in-law tremble in fear. They silently prayed that this old witch would not cause trouble again.


Madam Qu’s things were 80 to 90% new, and they were made of precious cedar-wood.


When the interested buyers swarmed over, Madam Qu finally smiled.


The price was higher than she had expected.


Her eldest son said uneasily, ‘Mother, no one is selling anything. Did everyone hear what Auntie Yang said? Should we wait a little longer?’


The smile on Madam Qu’s face froze. She looked at her eldest son, Yan


Shouguang, unhappily. “Why are you listening to her nonsense! Even if Master Yu wants to buy back the furniture, can he take all of them in with so many families in our village? If he wants to buy back furniture, he’ll take in these high-quality goods from the Cui family and Madam Bai’s family. If we listen to her, the items won’t even be worth a penny by then!”


Her eldest son wanted to say that what if Master Yu accepted all the items, but when he met his mother’s unrelenting gaze, he immediately shut up.


She was quite satisfied with all the things that were sold for three taels of silver. She generously took out two taels of silver and asked her eldest son to rent another carriage.


With another carriage, the entire family was very happy. They praised Madam Qu’s decision to sell furniture.


Unexpectedly, the next day, another group of people came to the entrance of Youjia village. After obtaining permission, they entered the village and set up a stall in the dam. They specially took in used good wood or furniture made of good wood. The prices varied, but compared to the cedar-wood bench that Madam Qu sold for 20 copper coins, it was already an astronomical price!


The entire Youjia Village was in an uproar. They took their items and lined up to get a price appraisal.


Yu Suisheng would not ask for more than the market price, nor would he allow the villagers to lose out too much. The 20 or so masters he invited quickly offered a shockingly high price of 10, 20, and 50 copper coins.


When Madam Qu heard the news, she almost fainted!


Her three sons and three daughters-in-law complained to her fiercely, “If only Mother had listened to Auntie Yang!”


They were indirectly accusing her of losing such a large sum of money for nothing. If they had this money, they could live a good life.


But now, it had all become nothing!


The villagers might be saying behind their backs that they were stupid. Even after trying to stop them from selling, they refused to listen to their in-laws.


The anger and indignation in her sons and daughters-in-law’s eyes drowned out Madam Qu. She did not reflect upon herself at all. Instead, she hated Auntie Yang to the core. “She must have done it on purpose!”


“She deliberately induced me to sell the furniture and come to make a fool of me!”


“If she had explained more, how would I have sold the furniture!”


Madam Qu muttered to herself crazily, picked up a pole, and rushed out.


He Chunbai was shocked. “Mother, what are you doing?! Stop her!’


“Village Chief Zhao’s family is not to be trifled with!”


After He Chunbai’s loud reminder, everyone finally woke up from the pain of losing their chance to become rich and hurriedly chased after her.


Madam Qu rushed to Village Chief Zhao’s house and shouted like she had seen a ghost, “Yang Yuehua, come out with me!”


As if she had expected it, Auntie Yang was not at home.


Madam Qu cursed angrily, “You vicious old woman with poisonous sores all over your body. You just can’t stand our family! You’re heartless. You’ll be struck by lightning and die a horrible death...”


She cursed very loudly. Even in the noisy Youjia Village, everyone heard her.


Everyone looked at Yan Tingting strangely.


Yan Tingting looked at her husband with a pale face. Seeing his dark expression, she hurriedly said to Auntie Yang apologetically, “Mother, let me make a trip back home!”


Auntie Yang nodded magnanimously. Yan Tingting ran back to the Zhao family like a ghost had been chasing after her.


Madam Qu was still making a scene. Her three sons could not stop her at all, as if she had gone crazy.


When Yan Tingting saw Madam Qu, she inevitably said angrily, “Mother! What are you doing?! Mother-in-law already told you not to sell the items, but you insisted on selling them!”


“Pa—I’


Madam Qu slapped her hard, her eyes fierce and red. “You heartless dog, then why didn’t you tell me?!” She even started to blame Yan Tingting.


Yan Tingting covered her face as tears fell. She felt very aggrieved. “l really didn’t know! I only found out this morning!’


Madam Qu did not believe it and wanted to slap her again. Zhao Yuan suddenly appeared and grabbed her raised hand. “Mother, it’ll be too late if you don’t sell the wood now..’
