Lady Li felt a chill down her back, always fearing the worst. She stole a glance at her mother before cautiously saying, "Old Wang from the fourth household agreed to the adoption, but Wang Ru has to give the Wang family twenty taels of silver each month. My goodness, twenty taels a month, two hundred and forty taels a year. Wang Ru really is quite wealthy."
Zhao's interjected, "Wang Ru didn't agree, did she? Sister-in-law, just tell us the outcome!"
The more she understood her mother, the more she knew her mother disliked pointless chatter!
Lady Li didn't dare to retort Zhao's, as she had just irritated her mother, "Wang Ru paid two hundred taels of silver in one go, and also gave a set of gold jewelry to Sun's. Old Wang from the fourth household agreed, and Wang Ru moved to the Qian family's home. She'll move out once her new house is ready."
Zhulan commented coolly, "Wang Ru is really ruthless!"
Lady Li didn't understand, "Mother, how is Wang Ru ruthless?"
