From Folly to Fortune：I Rewrite My Life After Rebirth!

It’s impossible to buy land again with money.

She, Old Mrs. Mu, would never take money out to buy land.

But if Qin Xianglan didn’t want to be a maid, she wouldn’t bring along a freeloader to eat for free!

”Dad and Mom, why not let Xianglan decide this? What if she’s willing to be a maid?” said Mrs. Lin from the side.

Old Mrs. Mu’s eyes lit up.

”Yes, go ask Xianglan. If she’s willing, you, old man, have no say in it!”

Mrs. Lin hurried off to call Qin Xianglan.

On the way, Mrs. Lin had already mentioned Old Mu Family’s plan for her to become a maid to Qin Xianglan.

Qin Xianglan was thoroughly unwilling, with every fiber of her being.

But she held it in.

In front of Mr. Mu and Old Mrs. Mu, she maintained her earlier stance, saying she wanted to stay.

Old Mrs. Mu got anxious.

”Xianglan, you need to think carefully. The food we’ve stored up isn’t much, it’s only for my daughter Xiangxiang. If you want to eat, you’ll have to sort it out yourself!”

Old Mrs. Mu perfectly demonstrated what it means to be ungrateful.

Qin Xianglan gritted her teeth to the point of almost crushing them, regretting not letting that fool marry this old lady back then.

Now, none of these ridiculous problems would exist!

”Aunt Mu, Xianglan owes everything to you. But she’s worried she won’t do a good job as a maid and won’t take good care of you, making both you and herself unhappy. It might be better to...”

”I won’t be mad. You just need to go to the county with us!” Old Mrs. Mu interjected.

Hearing Old Mrs. Mu’s words, Qin Xianglan reluctantly agreed, ”If that’s the case, then I will go to the county with you!”

When Mr. Mu sold the land, Qin Xianglan had already contemplated going to the county.

But she couldn’t let Old Mu Family’s people feel like it was her idea to go.

Otherwise, with how Old Mu Family bullies people, there would be no peace for her in the future.

Once it was decided that Qin Xianglan would go to the county as a maid, Old Mrs. Mu was in high spirits again.

She remembered she hadn’t mentioned this to Mu Xiangxiang and Mu Zhenzhen, so Old Mrs. Mu went to find Mu Xiangxiang and Mu Zhenzhen.

...

Two days later, Mrs. Jin came early in the morning to talk about going to the county.

She initially intended to catch them off guard, but who knew the Old Mu Family had already packed everything up.

They even sold the fields!

Seeing the whole big family of the Old Mu Family, Mrs. Jin was fuming inside!

But what could anger do? Recently, whenever she appeared at the village entrance, the villagers wouldn’t let her leave, fearing she would abandon responsibility for the Old Mu Family.

Mrs. Jin was also helpless; she could only temporarily bring people to the county first.

Mrs. Jin had only hired two vehicles, which were more than enough for the things of their main house.

But adding the Old Mu Family people would definitely not work.

Mrs. Jin looked distressed and said to Mr. Mu, ”Dad, I’m really sorry. I can’t leave the village these days, nor have I been to town to get more vehicles. These two carriages were arranged from the very beginning.”

”Sister-in-law, what you’re saying isn’t right. We have so many people, and only your main house has carriages, two of them, and we don’t even have a single ox cart. Are you expecting us to walk to the county?”

”Exactly, eldest daughter-in-law, the way you’re handling things is getting more and more unreasonable. Wait till we reach the eldest son’s place; I’ll have him divorce you!” Old Mrs. Mu unusually agreed with Mrs. Lin for once.

This bolstered Mrs. Lin’s confidence.

”Mom, why not make Dan and Ying get off the carriage, and you and Dad take Gou Dan along, and have the two girls walk?”

Mrs. Lin suggested.

As soon as she finished speaking, Old Mrs. Mu hurriedly forced Mu Dandan and Mu Yingying off the carriage.

Mu Dandan and Mu Yingying, innocent and suffering, almost got hurt when they fell to the ground.

Seeing this, Mrs. Jin was stunned.

”Mom, what are you doing? Why are you treating Dan and Ying this way?”

Mrs. Jin rushed to help her two daughters, who immediately clung to Mrs. Jin and started crying.

”Cry, cry, cry, all you do is cry. Are you wailing because your mother died?” Old Mrs. Mu’s words were exceptionally cruel.

Mrs. Jin was furious. She pushed Mu Dandan and Mu Yingying aside and dragged Old Mrs. Mu off the carriage.

”Who told you to sit on my carriage, get lost!”

Old Mrs. Mu was also pushed to the ground, but she quickly got up and lunged at Mrs. Jin, and they began to tussle.

Early in the morning, the Old Mu Family put on a real show, stirring laughter among the onlooking villagers.

Mr. Mu was utterly embarrassed.

With a flushed face, he directed Lin and Qin Xianglan, ”Quick, pull them apart, pull them apart...”

Mrs. Lin wasn’t willing to intervene; not only did she refuse, but even Qin Xianglan was reluctant.

Mu Dajiang, a big man, couldn’t get involved in a women’s brawl.

”Younger brother, call the third branch, call the third branch over...” Mr. Mu said.

Only then did Mu Dajiang go to call the third branch family.

But by the time Mu Dashan’s family arrived, Old Mrs. Mu and Mrs. Jin had nearly exhausted themselves from the fight.

Mrs. Jin was no match for Old Mrs. Mu, having her hairpins and accessories ripped off by Old Mrs. Mu.

Even her face had several long scratches from Old Mrs. Mu’s nails!

Her hair was a mess, and even her clothes were torn.

On the other hand, Old Mrs. Mu’s clothes were fine, and even her hair wasn’t too disheveled, plus she gained some extra stuff.

She was thrilled!

Mu Dandan and Mu Yingying clung to the bruised and pale Mrs. Jin, weeping uncontrollably.

Cursing Old Mrs. Mu for being heartless, Old Mrs. Mu was about to strike again when Mr. Mu yelled at her to stop.

”Third son, good thing you’re here, you... you escort us to town, the carriage is really out of space today!” Mr. Mu said.

Mu Dashan directly shook his head, ”Dad, Shuangshuang needs the carriage today! I can’t go!”

”Shuang, give your grandma and me a ride!” Mr. Mu said.

”Grandpa, I have to take goods to town today, there’s no room for people!”

Mu Shuangshuang explained. She truly didn’t know Mr. Mu planned to leave.

Let alone sit on her carriage, if she had known, she would have left early and not waited till now.

”Then what? Should I, the old lady, really walk to town?” Old Mrs. Mu loudly exclaimed.

Mr. Mu continued to fix his gaze on Mu Shuangshuang, ”Shuang, how about we pay you for a ride, can you make some space for your goods...”

”Grandpa, I really can’t! The goods I have today are for lunchtime, besides, you wouldn’t want to be crammed in with a bunch of vegetables, right? What would you look like by the time you reach town? All dirty.”

Mu Shuangshuang’s words dashed Mr. Mu’s hopes.

He went to the village to arrange an ox cart. Fortunately, the villagers, knowing he was going to the county, were happy to lend an ox cart to Mr. Mu.

The only requirement was that Mr. Mu shouldn’t forget these villagers in the future!
