Chapter 483: Someone Will Help
Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
Without waiting for her three sons to take a breather, Old Madam Wang bought an abandoned school ground in one go. The location was relatively remote and was already at the edge of the prefecture capital. However, because it was used as a school ground, it was very wide and had a small row of houses.
“Mother, I can still understand why you bought the house and shop from before. But why are you buying this piece of land?” Wang Chuangui completely did not understand.
Old Madam Wang said, “Looks like the prefecture capital didn’t nurture your brain. If you can’t figure it out, continue thinking. You didn’t pay me any tuition fees, so I’m not obligated to answer your questions.”
Wang Chuangui:”…”
What’s wrong with asking?
On the other hand, Wang Chuanman was in disbelief, but he still asked softly, “Mother, could this be for Ah Yu?”
“At least you have some brains.” Old Madam Wang glanced at Wang Chuanman and said, “Those two shops and the bigger house will belong to Ah Yu. Don’t think that I’m biased. The money isn’t from the family. It’s Ah Yu’s money.”
The three brothers did not believe this.
How could Ah Yu have her own money?
Oh, they remembered. Mother had also said before that the money Ah Yu earned had to be credited to her.
Which ones were earned by Ah Yu? They were no longer sure.
But at least they knew that there should not be so much, right?
When did their family become so rich?
Or were Father and Mother pretending to be poor in the past to test the few of them?
Old Madam Wang didn’t care what they thought. She only planned to return to Hu Family Village after things were settled here and see how many of her useless grandsons could become county scholars.
All those who were passed will be brought to the prefecture capital.
If Ah Yu wanted to go out and broaden her horizons, she had to wait until she was seven years old.
Fortunately, Wei Guo’er was in the prefecture capital, so she did not have to be afraid of bringing Ah Yu to the prefecture capital.
As for the school grounds, it was because Ah Yu wanted to open a women’s academy in the future. Regardless of whether it could be opened in the future, she had to prepare it first.
At that time, if Ah Yu wanted to open the academy but couldn’t do so, she would have to return to the political world.
However, she didn’t know if the name of Princess Yong Chang would still be useful 30 years down the road.
She could only do as much as she could now.
There was also her youngest daughter, Bao’er. Over the past year, Bao’er had been thinking about her child. When they settled down in the prefecture city, she would bring her grandson over.
Only by leaving their hometown could the trauma in their hearts be healed.
No one understood this better than Old Madam Wang.
After learning that he did not have a share of the house and shop, Wang Chuangui was relieved.
Fortunately, she did not buy it for him. Otherwise, if his mother bought it for him and he failed to pass the examination, he would really lose face.
Before Old Madam Wang and the others left, Magistrate Wei specially sent them a plaque.
It said “House of Loyalty” to thank them for helping solve an old case.
Magistrate Wei originally wanted to send this plaque to Nanhe Town.
At that time, their Wang Family would definitely be able to do whatever they wanted in Nanhe Town.
It was a gift from him to Aunt Ran.
However, Old Madam Wang asked him to send the plaque to the new house and hang it on the door of the second house.
After the government constable delivered the plaque, he went to report to Magistrate Wei and vaguely told him, “Sir, the Wang Family’s house seems to be in a sorry state. There’s dust everywhere, and there’s no one guarding it…”
At this moment, Old Madam Wang had already returned with her son and daughter-in-law.
Madam Ma looked at the calm old lady beside her and could not help but ask, “Mother, the new house we bought has yet to be cleaned up. If we leave like this, won’t it attract the attention of thieves?”
Old Madam Wang smiled. “Don’t worry, someone will help clean it up..”
