How did such immense wealth fall into my family?

Chapter 189 is such a waste; she should be a general.
The two robbers locked Old Master Miao in a farmhouse courtyard. At mealtimes, they would throw him two cornbread buns and a bowl of water. At first, Old Master Miao wouldn't eat, but after missing two meals, he started eating.

Miao Jin arrived ten days later.

The old man wanted to yell at him the moment he saw him, but he didn't want to eat his cornbread anymore. "Why are you bothering me for no reason? All I did was laugh at you a few times!"

Miao Jingang stared at the old man and said, "I don't care if you laugh at me a hundred times. But if you dare to go out and ruin the Qian family's reputation, I'll make sure you live like this forever."

"You! I'm your father!"

"If you weren't my father, I would have thrown you into the mountains to feed the wolves long ago! As soon as my grandparents passed away, you started keeping courtesans and actors. If it weren't for me, you wouldn't even be able to afford a cornbread now."

The Miao people don't have much wealth to begin with, how can they afford to squander it like this?
Seeing that Old Master Miao was about to squander the family fortune, Miao Jingang looked at his younger siblings, gritted his teeth, and tied him up while he was drunk, throwing him into the cellar.

Miao Jingang only released him after taking control of the Miao family. He wanted to rebel and go to the yamen to accuse Miao Jingang of being unfilial, but Miao Jingang told him that if he went to the yamen to accuse him, he would die with him.

In the past, Old Master Miao would never have believed it. But Miao Jingang had dared to throw him into the cellar. Old Master Miao dared not take the risk.

The Miao family was only moderately wealthy before, and it was only after Miao Jin took over that they became one of the most prominent families in the area. He absolutely refused to allow his father to destroy the family business he had worked so hard to build.

Old Master Miao wanted to say, "If you hadn't stolen my family business, would I need your charity?" But if he dared to say that, this unfilial son would lock him up for life. "Didn't I already promise you I wouldn't tell?"

"You can do it?"

"..."

"I need to let you know that I can make you drink tea and listen to music, or I can make you eat coarse food and wild vegetables."

"You unfilial son!" "I understand. Can you let me go now?"

"Watch your mouth. I'm going to continue my dealings with the Qian family."

"understood."

Miao Jingang took out the five hundred taels again. "Let's go have some tea."

Those who are ruthless fear those who are tough, and those who are tough fear those who are fearless.

Miao Jingang was a scoundrel, arrogant, and fearless man. Old Master Miao obediently took the silver notes and left.

Meanwhile, Shiba couldn't stay at Longhua Temple for more than three days. "Little niece, tell me, has your grandma calmed down yet?"

Even the little dog, Sheng, was getting a little hungry. "Let's sneak back and take a look."

"it is good."

The uncle and nephew hit it off immediately. After telling Master Daoyi, they secretly went home.

After returning home, the uncle and nephew went straight to the kitchen.

After the family's financial situation improved, Granny Tian would always cook extra food and keep it in the kitchen so that the children wouldn't go hungry.

As soon as the uncle and nephew entered the kitchen, they smelled a delicious aroma. They ran straight to the stove. When they lifted the lid of the pot, they saw a basket of large steamed buns.

The uncle and nephew took a deep sniff.

Eighteen: "Meat-like".

Little Dog: "Pure meat!"

Gudong!

The uncle and nephew swallowed hard.

After swallowing hard, the uncle and nephew each grabbed a large steamed bun and started eating. They chatted as they ate.

Eighteen: "It smells so good!"

The puppy said, "It must have been Second Aunt who made the filling."

Eighteen: "I want to eat ten."

The puppy said, "I want to eat twenty."

The uncle and nephew were enjoying their meal when they were suddenly lifted up. They initially thought Dong Laoqi was playing a prank on them. Turning around, they said, "Auntie/Grandma, you're stealing...stealing...stealing too..."

Before the uncle and nephew could finish speaking, they realized that the person behind them was not Dong Laoqi at all, but a black tower.

Gudong!

The uncle and nephew swallowed again.

Eighteen: "Good sir!"

The puppy, Sheng, said: "Hello, sister."

The strong woman turned and left.

Eighteen: "Brave warrior, where are you taking us?" Little Dog Sheng: "Sister, are you new here?"

The strong woman remained silent.

18: "What is your honorable surname, brave warrior?"

The puppy said, "Sister, you're so handsome."

The strong woman remained silent.

The eighteen-year-old puppy looked over. Meaning: Why isn't she saying anything?
The little dog thought for a moment and pointed to its mouth. Meaning: She probably can't speak.

Eighteen: "Brave warrior, do you think we are thieves?"

Little Dog Sheng: "Sister, we are the children of this family. We went to play at my grandmaster's house these past few days."

The strong woman still didn't react at all.

The uncle and nephew exchanged a glance and then continued eating their steamed buns.

The uncle and nephew thought the strong woman would take them to Dong Laoqi or the squad leaders. Instead, she took them to Granny Tian. "Grandma," she said, "I caught two thieves. They lied and said they were your children."

Eighteen: Wow! The brave warrior can speak.

Little Dog: This older sister is really calm.

Just as the uncle and nephew were about to say to Granny Tian, ​​"Mom/Grandma, we're back. Did you miss us?", they heard Granny Tian say, "These two children are definitely not my children. Throw them out."

Eighteen: "...Mother, I am your precious youngest son."

Little Dog Sheng: "Grandpa, Grandpa, my grandma is going to throw me and my uncle out. Grandpa, Grandpa..."

As soon as Qian Laifu heard his granddaughter's voice, he dropped what he was doing and ran over. "Don't throw it, don't throw it, the children know they were wrong."

18. Little Dog Sheng: "Mmm!"

The strong woman looked at Shiba and the little dog Sheng, then at Granny Tian. Was she deciding whether to throw them away or not?

Granny Tian glanced at the meat bun in Little Dog Sheng's hand. "Why don't you go eat outside? Don't you have money?"

"Eating out is so expensive!" Her grandma's principle was that if she could cook at home, she would never buy food from outside. She had just made her grandma angry; if she ate out again, when would her grandma ever forgive her?
Eighteen: "Yeah, it's too expensive outside."

Seeing that they knew how to save money, Granny Tian said to the strong woman, "Put them down."

"Yes." The strong woman put the uncle and nephew down on the ground.

The uncle and nephew quickly ran to Granny Tian's side to fawn over her.

"Mother, I miss you so much."

"Grandma, I can't sleep soundly when you're not by my side."

"Go away, go away," Granny Tian said, waving her hand. "Don't try to sweet-talk me, I'm busy." With that, Granny Tian led the strong woman away.

"Phew..." The uncle and nephew wiped the sweat from their foreheads. The matter was finally over.

Eighteen: "Father, who is that brave warrior?"

The puppy, Sheng, asked: "Grandpa, did you miss me?"

"I've thought about it. She was your grandmother's maid."

"Cough, cough, cough!"

"Cough, cough, cough!"

The uncle and nephew almost choked.

Eighteen: "She's my mother's maid?"

The puppy, Sheng, said, "Grandpa, say it again."

"She was your grandmother's maid."

Eighteen: "What a waste, she should be a general."

The puppy, Sheng, said, "Isn't my grandma reluctant to part with it?"

“She’s a woman, she can’t be a general. Didn’t Master Daoyi tell your grandmother that our family is different from before? After leaving Master Daoyi’s place, I persuaded your grandmother to buy a maid. Your grandmother thought about it and agreed.”

It turned out to be the case.

Eighteen: "This maid must be very expensive, right?"

Little Dog Sheng: "This maid must be cheap, right?"
