What Was the Most Miserable Feeling in the World?

This infuriated Old Madam Zhou: "What exactly do these two people want? We've explained everything so clearly, and they still refuse!"

The third daughter-in-law took a sip of tea and said:

"Mom, don't worry! This is very simple. The two of them really can't make the decision on their own. They have to go back and ask Zhou Wanwan for instructions."

All we need to do now is settle our grandparents in; don't they want to bring them up the mountain?

"If they want to take it, then we have a way."

Old Madam Zhou snorted coldly and said:

"That little brat is incredibly capable; she can take anything away."

"Let me tell you something. The magistrate's several thousand taels of gold and grain were hidden in a cave deep in the mountains, and they were actually able to find them."

The third daughter-in-law's face changed. "How exactly did you find that little brat?"

Old Madam Zhou shook her head and said:

"If only we knew, the key problem right now is that we can't find any reason."

It's strange, really. These people were all the magistrate's confidants, so there was absolutely no way they could have any problems.

Moreover, everyone around the house was cleared out, but all the things in the house were gone.

The third daughter-in-law suddenly spoke up, "Mother, do you think it's because of Zhou Wanwan that we've lost so many things?"

Old Madam Zhou jumped to her feet and said, "You mean she's the one who stole our things? She stole them too?"

The third daughter-in-law quickly comforted her:

"Mom, don't panic! That's just my thought, but we don't know for sure if it's true or not."

Let's go check out her village first, then we can make a decision!

We can't afford to completely break ties with her now; we must remain polite and courteous on the surface.

They're bandits after all, we can't afford to mess with them!

Old Madam Zhou sighed and said:

"Yes! I actually just wanted to go up the mountain and see what Black Wind Mountain Stronghold has."

We can also come back and report to the county magistrate then. We all depend on the county magistrate for our livelihood now, so we naturally have to pay attention."

The third daughter-in-law nodded and said, "Yes, yes, Mother is right. I think Zhou Wanwan will agree."

Zhou Wanwan looked at her parents with a half-smile and said:

"The Zhou Family family is really something else. They were quite decisive when they kicked us out."

Why are you saying something like this now?

Liu Su'e sneered:

"To put it bluntly, they just want to see what our mountain village is like. Right now, the whole village thinks we live a life of hardship and deprivation."

You have no idea what those villagers were saying about me, saying that people who become bandits will never be able to turn their lives around!

Their children will also be forced to become thieves, destined to spend their lives eating and waiting to die on the mountain!

Zhou Fusheng was also quite angry. "Although we went up the mountain, we didn't harm anyone!"

Zhou Wanwan looked at Zhou Qingyan and said, "Big brother, what do you think?"

Zhou Qingyan sighed:

"My father's idea was to bring my grandparents up the mountain, but those people just wanted to come up the mountain to take a look."

Actually, there's nothing shameful about the mountain. Apart from the main house and the side rooms, they can't go anywhere else.

"It's fine for us to come and see, but Mom and Dad, do you intend to be on good terms with them?"

Zhou Fusheng shook his head and said:

"I don't mean to befriend them. Those people are just being hypocritical. My idea is to invite your grandparents up the mountain."

"If they'd like to live in the mountains, I'll take care of them in their old age."

Liu Su'e snorted coldly and said, "I can't be bothered with these people, I'm just a little angry."

You didn't see how they acted, especially what Zhang Guilan said about me today!

It makes me angry just thinking about it.

Zhou Wanwan looked at them and said:

"There's nothing to be angry about, the back is all blocked off."

Even if they come, they won't be able to see what's behind them, so let's invite them up the mountain.

Let them see what good things are like; these people have never seen anything good before.

Liu Su'e chuckled, "I'm really curious now, what would they think if they saw our houses?"

This main house is a complete, ready-made house that was specially moved from the Valley of Evildoers. As soon as it was moved here, it became the most magnificent main hall.

If the people of Zhou Family Village saw these houses, they would realize how shabby their own houses were.

Zhou Wanwan thought for a moment and said, "Then let's bring them over! It's been so long, it's time they knew what kind of life we've been living."

What is the most painful thing in the world?

It's a sense of disappointment.

They feel that they are living a very good life now, but as soon as they see that Zhou Wanwan's family is living an even better life, their sense of loss will be very obvious.

Don't these people like to show off?

Zhou Wanwan was determined to slap them in the face. She had never forgotten how this family had treated her when she first transmigrated.

Now they're pretending to reconcile with her family; how hypocritical.

They were just trying to find out the truth.

The next day, Zhou Wanwan gathered more than twenty people to accompany Zhou Fusheng and Liu Su'e to pick up their grandparents.

The villagers of Zhou Family Village were stunned when they saw the carriages. "Wow! These carriages are really luxurious! I've never seen such fine carriages before."

"A white horse? This is the first time I've ever seen one. It's really beautiful."

"Tsk tsk tsk... This must be a Ferghana horse, right? This batch will cost several thousand taels of silver." Zhou Fuyu was a connoisseur after all.

Seeing the Akhal-Teke horse almost made my mouth water.

Zhou Fusheng and Liu Su'e got out of the car. Liu Su'e was wearing various gold hairpins.

The village women stared in disbelief, exclaiming, "She's wearing gold in her hair!"

"You guys actually believe that? I've heard there's a kind of gold that looks like gold, but it's actually fake; it's just copper."

"It doesn't look fake to me; it looks like gold. Even if it isn't, look at that carriage—it's quite impressive!"

"Oh dear, those were all stolen, maybe even robbed. Why are you envious of these things?"

Some people looked at Liu Su'e with a gossipy expression and said:

"Liu Su'e, you've made it big now, but you came back empty-handed?"

That's really shameless of them.

"That's right! Zhou Fusheng, your family is so rich, how can you come back to your hometown without bringing us anything?"

Liu Su'e smiled and said, "Of course I didn't come empty-handed."

Everyone stared at her expectantly. She said, "Please make way for me! I need to deliver something!"

The carriage brought them to Daniu Erniu's house. Liu Su'e waved and said, "Daniu's wife, Erniu's wife, come out quickly!"

Daniu, Erniu, along with their wives and children, all came out.

Sister -Daniu Da Niu laughed:

"Su'e! You're getting more and more beautiful. It seems you're having a good time on the mountain!"

I thought you guys were really short of food and water up in the mountains, and I was even planning to have Daniu bring you some things!
