Mrs. Long glanced around and said resolutely, "I'll say it here today. Either take out the money or split the family up."
"Otherwise, I'll go to the county town to find Sam!"
Brittany's mouth moved. Just as she was about to add fuel to the fire, she heard Old Mr. Rivers' voice again. "Darling, take out the money!"
"Take out the money now!"
Madam Cook did not dare to disobey her husband's anger. She stood up and glared at Mrs. Long fiercely as if she was not going to take out the money, but to take out her life.
After a while, Madam Cook came out and took out silver coins worth ten ounces and slammed them heavily on the table.
Brittany was very disappointed. Why did Madam Cook compromise so easily? If she could hold on a little longer, it would be great that they could split up.
Mrs. Woods and Mrs. Oda stared at the money.
