Transmigration: The Little Chef Calls The Shots-Chapter 797 - 101 Buy a house_1

Anyway, I won’t have to put up with my sons’ faces later on, so Lady Yang let out the anger she had been holding back and kicked over the small stool she had just been sitting on.

The stool rolled noisily to the middle of the room, right under the feet of Li Feng’e, who was making the most fuss.

Li Feng’e let out a cry, and angrily blurted out, "Who? Who dares to hit me with a stool!"

Lady Yang glanced at her leisurely and said, "I just said that whoever makes the most noise, I will live with them. Looks like you from Laosan’s house are inviting me to spend the rest of my days with you, aren’t you?"

"I certainly am not!" Li Feng’e blurted out, glanced sheepishly at everyone present, and shut her mouth, sitting down without speaking further.

Feeling Lady Yang’s gaze, Lin Jiazhong swallowed awkwardly and coughed, "Well, let’s continue the discussion about where Mother will live. So, Mother, if you’re not staying in the North Room, where do you plan to live?"

Lady Yang sneered, "Where to live? You all figure it out. If it doesn’t work out, just buy me a house in the village. I won’t live with you anymore. Seeing how you all behave just makes me angry!"

All the sons and daughters-in-law rolled their eyes impatiently. This old hag really stiffened her back, even asking them to buy a house. Do they think houses are brought by the wind and can be bought just like that?

Li Feng’e was always domineering. If it hadn’t been for Lady Yang’s threats, she would have jumped up and cursed her long ago. Hmph, without a single silver penny, she still expected them to honor her? In her dreams!

Wait a minute!

Silver?

Li Feng’e’s mind lit up, and she looked at Lady Yang with a meaningful gaze, "Mother, you’re a bit different today. You said you’re not well and you’re old, so why do you insist on living alone? What if you get sick, who will pay for your medical fees? And you can’t work in the fields anymore, what will you eat or drink? Surely you can’t buy everything, can you?"

Buy?

Lin Jiazhong and his wife exchanged glances, suddenly perking up. Lin Jiaxiao looked as if he had found a Gold Ingot, his eyes unblinkingly fixed on Lady Yang.

"Mother, have you hidden away some silver? Did Father secretly leave you some silver when he passed away?"

"Mother, you really shouldn’t keep that silver to yourself. The village isn’t safe nowadays, what if a thief targets you, and it gets stolen or robbed? Better hand over the silver, we’ll keep it safe for you."

"Exactly, Mother, don’t look at us like that. We don’t want your silver. We’re doing this with your best interest in mind, worrying that a thief might frighten you."

The group, each echoing the other, had just been bickering and blame-throwing, but now united over the word ’silver’.

Lady Yang gave a bitter smile, thinking these ungrateful bastards weren’t calling her mother, they’d rather have silver as their mother!

"Enough, you don’t have to ask me anymore. Don’t you all know whether I have any silver?"

Lady Yang’s sarcastic gaze fell on Lady Ma and Li Feng’e, "When your father had a stroke back then, didn’t you all already turn everything upside down? You even searched out my burial savings. What, not reassured? Want to search again perhaps?"

Upon hearing Lady Yang’s words, Lady Ma guiltily lowered her head, while Li Feng’e seemed eager to have a go, looking like she really did want to search Lady Yang! freēwēbnovel.com

"Mother, what are you talking about? We didn’t mean that," Lin Jiazhong, always proud, was most like the deceased Lin Jianling, awkwardly smiled and said, "Since Mother you don’t want to live at home anymore, we’ll go ask the old village chief to see if there’s an available house in the village, and buy one for you. But about the money for the house..."

Lin Jiazhong glanced towards Lin Jiaxiao with an evident intention.

As soon as silver was mentioned, Lin Jiaxiao immediately chickened out, almost wishing he could sprint back to his room and hide under the covers, "Don’t look at me! I don’t have any silver left! The last bit of my silver went to father’s expenses!"

Lin Jiazhong glared at him, frustrated at his lack of mettle, but he himself was out of options. Surely they can’t sell the family house and then go buy another one in the village?

Seeing her son’s hesitation, Lady Yang softly suggested, "Just sell those three rooms in the North Room. Although they are old, they’re still solid and should fetch a good price. After selling them, buy me a small house. The rest, you two brothers can divide it up."
