The next moment, Hu Feng came out with a large plate of dumplings and put it on the table. Hu Feng then turned his head and looked at Old Lady Bai and Mrs. Liu from head to toe. He opened his mouth and coldly said: “You still haven’t left? Are you waiting for me to send you out?”

The mother-in-law and daughter-in-law shuddered, and at the same time, their legs trembled in fear. It seems that it’s very impossible for them to get rice right now. Hu Feng was here, they cannot rob the mother and daughter, nor borrow rice from them. However, the two were reluctant to leave with an empty hand.

Old Lady Bai tried to open her mouth again: “Let’s do it like this, we will not borrow from you if don’t want, we will buy it instead, okay?”

Buy?

Bai Zhi nodded and said: “Well, of course, you can buy, 1 silver coin for 1 stone meter.”

Old Lady Bai’s face drastically changed: “Are you trying to rob us? What 1 silver coin for 1 stone meter? Don’t speak nonsense.”

Bai Zhi shrugged her shoulders: “Then, you go to the town to buy rice tomorrow, and see if you can much cheaper.”

Mrs. Liu pulled Old Lady Bai’s sleeve and gave her a meaningful look. Old Lady Bai wanted to see what was Mrs. Liu is planning, so she nodded her head. Mrs. Liu then smiled and said: “It seems to be because of the price hike. I also heard that you can buy 1 stone meter of rice for 1 silver coin in the town. You give me a stone meter of rice first, then I will send you back the money.” They were originally member of the Bai Family, but they want to grab our money? In their next life.

Bai Zhi was not surprised at all, she shook her head and said: “No money, no delivery, no credit is allowed.”

When Old Lady Bai heard of this, her temper blew up in anger. She stomped her foot and said: “You little bitch, you’re clearly playing with this old lady, see how I am going teach you a lesson today.”

Bai Zhi remained standing with crossed arms, and stared at Old Lady Bai, who stomped her foot in anger. She then smiled and said: “Teach me a lesson? Do you think you still have this qualification? I’m advising you to rather not, otherwise, you’ll regret it.”

Thinking about how Bai Zhi gave them a big slap in the face before and how Hu Feng was ruthless in actions. Old Lady Bai could only grit her teeth and leave some words: “You white-eyed wolf, remember what you did to this old lady today. Let’s go.”

Mrs. Liu was also unwilling to just leave, so she also opened her mouth to curse: “Let’s see, how long you two can you live like this in this village. Once you’ve used up all your money, you will eventually be thrown out like beggars. When that time comes, we will only laugh out loud to you with a big smile.”

Bai Zhi answered back: “You can rest assured, if such a day comes, we will not go back to the Bai Family. Similarly, if your Bai Family will die from starvation, don’t bother coming to us, we don’t owe you anything.”

The mother-in-law and daughter-in-law went outside one after another. While walking, they didn’t stop from spitting words that were hard to listen to. Their swearing almost reached up to Zhao Lan and Hu Changlin’s dead ancestors.

Hu Changlin, who was in the yard came back to the house.

Zhao Lan opened her mouth and apologized: “Hu Dage, I troubled you, I’m sorry.”

Hu Changlin waved his hand: “What are you saying? Don’t let yourself get affected by their words. No need to take it to heart, it’s not worth it.”

Zhao Lan felt much better inside her heart, so she smiled and nodded: “I know.”

Four people sat around the table and happily eat dumplings. Hu Feng can be called the King of Dumplings. He almost ate 2/3 of the plate. Fortunately, they made enough today, otherwise, everything will be eaten by him alone.

“Zhi’er I saw you bought a lot of melon, are you going to eat them?” Hu Changlin asked.

Bai Zhi replied: “Not all of them will be eaten. I will plant some of them in the fields.”
