Transmigrated as A Farm Girl Making Her Family Rich-Chapter 298 - 258 You Are All Squandering the Family’s Wealth_2

Mr. Mo had not been greedy in his speech earlier to make the host family send them honey; since the elderly woman had said that even wealthy families couldn’t buy honey, it meant that the Ye family had run out of honey.

He had also heard about the banquet at the Tang Family that day, where the Ye family had sent some honey.

The little girl in front of him, barely over two or three years old, was holding a small earthen jar wrapped in cloth; he showed a grateful smile.

"Thank you, please thank your mother for me."

Ye Shiqi had thought about sending honey to the teacher again; it had been several days since the space had some honey, and there was already one or two taels of honey in the space. Thinking that the teacher and his wife had received their family’s honey for two or three months already, they must have almost finished eating it.

Since drinking honey was useful for the fetus, it meant that the teacher really needed this honey for nurturing the fetus.

Mr. Mo accepted the honey and sat in the carriage, holding the honey very nervously.

Just after sending the teacher off, Mrs. Lai came out of the room and saw Ye Shiqi standing in the courtyard.

"Wuya, what did you send to your teacher again?"

Mrs. Lai was sleeping in late in the room, just woke up, and saw her granddaughter sending off the teacher from the window, catching a glimpse of what was in the teacher’s hand.

Her short, stout legs wanted to run out, but she had just woken up from an afternoon nap and urgently needed to use the restroom; she had to attend to her physiological needs before coming out to settle the score with her granddaughter.

"Grandma, what did I send to the teacher? Nothing! Could it be that your eyes are getting blurry with age?"

Ye Shiqi denied it, deciding that since grandma had not seen clearly what it was, and the teacher had already left, there was no evidence. It’s better to avoid making a fuss.

"Humph, don’t I know you and your mother? What a waste, always sending things from the house out..." Mrs. Lai rambled on, saliva spraying out!

Ye Shiqi rolled her eyes, wondering if she should have let her elder sisters send it?

"Grandma, why are you scolding Wuya again?"

Mrs. Lai’s voice carried far in the courtyard; the other Ye family’s sisters who had just finished class and returned to their room, hurriedly ran out from their rooms.

"Scolding, yes, you sisters who waste so much, always sending things out, hmph!"

Mrs. Lai was scolding all five sisters.

Mrs. Li had taken her young son to the estate in the afternoon, so she wasn’t in the courtyard.

How could Ye Shiqi and her sisters stand being scolded by grandma all the time?

Not wanting to stand foolishly in the courtyard, they quickly ran back to their rooms.

"Don’t go... don’t think you can escape by running back to your rooms, I’ll deal with you tonight."

Mrs. Lai was short and chubby, and absolutely no match for her quick-legged granddaughters; she could only glare helplessly on the spot.

Mrs. Lai was ranting in the courtyard, causing the Ye family’s workers to hide away, and those who unavoidably had to pass through the courtyard did so with heads bowed, hoping not to be seen by Mrs. Lai and become the target of her anger.

Mrs. Lai was in the midst of her tirade when a bullock cart entered the courtyard, with a dejected man sitting in it.

This man hadn’t yet reached the Ye family’s courtyard when he already could hear his mother-in-law’s scolding from afar, making him even more irritable and somewhat regretful for coming.

He thought he should have paid someone to send a message instead, not wanting to face his mother-in-law’s temper, especially not in this moment of irritability.

Zhong Xianggui drove the bullock cart into the courtyard, Mrs. Lai turned around upon hearing the noise and seeing her son-in-law, looked puzzled as her eyes caught sight of something on the bullock cart.

She took out a handkerchief, wiped the corners of her mouth, and hurried over with a sycophantic smiley face, a complete turn from her previously furious expression.

This dramatic change in Mrs. Lai’s welcome did not please Zhong Xianggui, yet he couldn’t avoid facing her.

"Xianggui, you’re usually busy doing business with your daughter, how come you had time to come today?"

As Mrs. Lai spoke, she had gotten close enough to clearly see the items on the bullock cart, smelled the sweet and sour scent, and saw the red eggs inside, which were making her mouth water even more than pondering over her daughter.

Zhong Xianggui, seeing his mother-in-law’s greedy face, looked down disdainfully and said softly, "Shuzhi has given birth."

"Shuzhi has given birth? Did she have a big chubby boy?"

Mrs. Lai, seemingly oblivious to his mood, made Zhong Xianggui lower his head even more with her words.

"Shuzhi went into labor at midnight, just before gave birth to a girl."

"What? A girl? How can you all be so disappointing?"

Mrs. Lai had had a son with her eldest daughter after having several daughters, and believed only her son was so unlucky as to have several daughters before having a son. She had felt during the pregnancy that her daughter would definitely have a boy.
