Guide to raise my cutie husbands

Chapter 322 Fifty taels not one cent less missy.

　　And so one day, the family decided to have another meal that would include soft turtle meat and all sort of flavoursome food. After all, Lang wasted the table of food by flipping it over last time, so they might as well use her money and have another feast! However, when Daddy Zhu went inside his room and brought out the small treasure chest in which they have kept all the money that Lang gave to them, the family realised that the money in their small box have visibly reduced! At first, the entire family thought that someone has stolen the money and they started questioning each other but then Second brother in law suggested tallying the expenses that they have done in the past month.

So, the family sat down and seriously tallied the money that they had in saving with the expenses that they have done in the past month—— and what they found out after tallying the expenses was that they were the ones who have spent all the money! The Zhu family was shocked, they couldn’t believe it but the truth was right in front of their naked eye. 

Then they started to search for all the knocks and crannies where they might have hidden the money but even after searching for a long time they only found a few cents and nothing more.  They immediately panicked and what was even worse was the kids who were already prepared to eat a sumptuous feast, when they heard that they had to cancel the plan of having a soft turtle feast, they all kicked up a fuss together. Causing the villagers who lived next to them and ask what was going on and why the kids were crying as if the sky was falling on them. The Zhu family was already troubled enough with the lack of money and with the kids kicking up the fuss, added more to their troubles causing the entire family to get embarrassed. 

Once the family sent the neighbours away they set all the kids right in rage, not even stopping when the kids started to cry and shout.

Then Zhu Cheng and her sister went to the village head who was responsible for delivering the money to them after bringing it from the brothel in the town, thinking that maybe Lang might have sent them the money to appease their anger. After all if not for them who would take care of Lang Hui, was she really going to take Lang Hui to the brothel? However, when the two sisters went to question their Village’s head they found out a piece of shocking news—— Lang and her family were no longer the slaves of the brothel and were redeemed!

The Zhu family once again received another thunderbolt, if Lang wasn’t working in the brothel doesn’t it mean that she no longer has to send Lang Hui to them. At first, they were in disbelief, they thought that maybe the village head turned greedy and kept the money to himself, so they rushed to the town and looked for Lang and Zhu Qian, after all the two of them were in such a pathetic situation when they signed the slavery contract with the Mommy of the brothel they were working at, there was no way they will be able to redeem themselves. With their situations, they should still be bounded in the contact and this should have been the case for the rest of their lives.

But what the two sisters found out in the town was that a rich madam really redeemed the husband and wife and even took them with her!

However, this shocking news was just the beginning. Their family expenses have long surpassed the expenses that a normal farming family should have, the expenses were so high that they spent the rest of the money rather quickly, the standard of their life quickly plummeted to the ground and Zhu Cheng who was now used to finely polished rice couldn’t even take a bite of her coarse vegetable pancake. And she was an adult yet she was affected like this, she couldn’t even think about her children who were feeling so overwhelmed that they kept peering out of the door hoping that the Village head would bring them the monthly expense that Lang sent.

Her youngest daughter even swore that she will treat Lang Hui nicely if he comes back.

Zhu Cheng and her sister, Zhu Han could no longer sit still any more. Or it was better to say that their husbands were not letting them sit still a moment longer, they were thrown out of the house, with clear orders to bring back decent wages or else not to return home. Zhu Cheng used to think that her husband was cordial and obedient, he wouldn’t dare to say a word against her but ever since life at the house has plummeted, he has been harping on her head every single second that he took a breath. She tried hitting him sometimes but her husband was not to mess with either, she raised her hand on him and then the zip that was closing his mouth shut would zip open and he would start calling her useless and whatnot, he didn’t hit her but his words were sharp enough for her to lose all the respect and love she had for him.

What love? What respect? What was the most important was ‘ money if you have it your husband would willingly worship you but if you don’t—— heh! 

Zhu Cheng looked down at the fifty cents that she was carrying in her hands and pursed her lips. If she were to return home with this measly amount of money in her pocket, her husband will surely squabble with her, she rubbed the space between her eyebrows and sighed. What to do now, she didn’t want to go back home tonight———

” Madam, are you looking for company tonight?” A soft voice came from her side and Zhu Cheng looked over to the person who was calling her. The mer who called her was dressed in a soft pastel pink robe with his long cascaded over his shoulder, his red cinnabar looked even brighter under the moonlight, and the last thing that Zhu Cheng remembered was following him inside the tavern as for the first thing that she saw early in the morning was Xiang Bei’s excessively sly face as she raised her hand and announced, ” Fifty taels and no less, you got that missy?”
