Chapter 546 - 544 No need to explain
Wang Yongzhu was well aware of the situation, but in that instant when she saw Wang Laozhu’s disheartened look, she couldn’t help but feel a twinge of compassion.
However, now that the Sun Family matter was resolved, she didn’t bother dwelling on the past.
At this moment, Wang Yongzhu’s sole focus was to return home and search for the silver note, to count it thoroughly once again.
With nearly three thousand taels of private savings in hand, Wang Yongzhu finally felt a sense of security and solidity.
Even if the Wang Family faced any troubles again, with this silver in her possession, she would never have to experience the despair of being driven to a dead end, risking everything as she had before.
As soon as she entered the courtyard, she heard Lady Lin rushing in, "Mother, the eldest sister-in-law is still kneeling at the door refusing to leave! Lots of people outside are watching; what should we do?"
Before Old Granny Zhang could speak, Lady Lin couldn’t help but complain, "What bad luck! On our good day, to encounter such an event, the eldest sister-in-law must be begrudging our family’s well-being, right? Father has already chased her away, and she still shamelessly clings on!"
Old Granny Zhang’s face also turned grim, as this was a situation where nobody from their end would be suitable to intervene, and the only person who could, Wang Laozhu, was already so drunk that he didn’t even know who he was.
Noticing Old Granny Zhang’s dilemma, Wang Yongzhu quickly offered, "I’ll go and persuade eldest sister!"
Old Granny Zhang grabbed her arm, "Zhuzhu, don’t go! Your father made it clear today that he wanted them all gone, it wouldn’t be right for anyone but him to step in at this point. What if your eldest sister causes a scene, saying nonsensical things in front of outsiders? You as a young lady must be mindful of your reputation! Forget it, I’ll go. What do I, an old woman, care about reputation! Whether I go or not, it’s always the stepmother’s fault!"
With that, she rolled up her sleeves, ready to head to the front gate.
