New Year (5)_1 Before he could finish grumbling, Cai Wei coldly interrupted him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Grandfather, you saw how big our horse carriage is.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With four bundles, and our family of six all crammed in, there’s no room left for anything else.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>These aren’t immediate necessities.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>I could go to the market after the sixth day of the month to buy and bring them here.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It’s the same,” she said.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>On hearing this, Mu Zhongli hastily interjected, “Actually, if it is inconvenient for you, you could give me the silver.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>I can go buy these things for you.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After all, I have a horse carriage, and it’s not like I’d exploit your money.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Mu Zhongqing took a glance at his elder brother’s avaricious look and said lightly, “The market doesn’t open until the sixth, where exactly are you planning to buy these things now?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“…”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Mu Zhongli was left speechless by his brother’s retort and awkwardly sat down.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lady Mu Bai felt displeased seeing her beloved eldest son being backed into a corner.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Furthermore, she was also worried about being tricked by Cai Wei, which would lead to disappointment.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>So, she interjected on behalf of her son, “I think your elder brother’s idea is fantastic.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>You are busy with your business on normal days.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Where would you find the time to buy these things?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Wouldn’t it be better to give the money to your elder brother and let him buy them for you?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Exactly, exactly…”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Mu Zhongli bobbed his head like a chicken pecking at rice, agreeing eagerly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Cai Wei glanced sideways at the old lady and said, “No need for my uncle to bother.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>We run a restaurant business and have dependable sources from rice shops where we can buy cheap grains.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This is something that uncle can’t achieve.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Her words left Mu Zhongli red-faced.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He didn’t know whether she was flaunting her extensive connections or mocking his inability to buy such basic necessities.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If this had happened in the past, he would have blown his top when Cai Wei dared to talk to him like this.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>However, ever since he experienced Cai Wei’s fierceness, he genuinely felt apprehensive toward her.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It was as if her every frown and smile carried lethal force, sending a chill down his spine.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He sat awkwardly for a while before suddenly suggesting to his daughter, “Ping’er, why don’t you take your sister to your room and play for a while?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>We adults need to have a chat.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Upon hearing that Mu Zhongli wanted to get rid of her, Cai Wei suspected that he was up to something.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Afraid to speak in her presence, he was using the excuse of her playing in Cai Ping’s room to talk to Mu Zhongqing and his wife in private.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Although Cai Ping despised Cai Wei, she had no choice but to obey her father’s command.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>So, she got up, looked at Cai Wei indifferently and dismissively, and asked, “Big sister, may I have the honor of inviting you to my room for a small talk?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Cai Wei nodded and laughed, “Sure thing!” She then took Wu’er’s hand, wore a smile on her face, and followed Cai Ping to her boudoir.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Cai Ping lived in the right wing, occupying two rooms.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The two rooms on the left were the bedrooms of Mu Chongcai and Mu Chongfu.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Upon entering the room, Cai Wei glanced around briefly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Seeing nothing of interest, she withdrew her gaze, sat down on a stool, cradled Wu’er, and began to play with him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Watching Cai Wei act with such nonchalance – as if she were not even worth her attention – Cai Ping couldn’t help feeling enraged.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>However, she remembered her grandfather and father’s words: she needed to suppress her anger and coax Cai Wei, obtaining the silver was the priority!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yet, each time she looked at Cai Wei’s porcelain-like little face, her almond-shaped eyes, and her petal-like small mouth; each time she felt a burning jealousy at Cai Wei’s beauty.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The more she thought about how Cai Wei had turned her father and brothers against her, sullying her family’s reputation to the point where she didn’t even have a suitor, the deeper her resentment grew.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She wished she could scratch Cai Wei’s gaudily dressed face.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Cai Ping stayed silent, and since Cai Wei didn’t feel like engaging with her, she just held Wu’er and gently rocked him, ensconcing the room in an eerie calm.\u003C\u002Fp>",753,"2026-06-03T13:14:27.289Z","2026-06-03T13:14:31.393Z",1,"novelbin.me","2daf43564b4a9bdb5058caf46c22b85d88f06fa72e7bc3a99fa2d93e848e71c8","transmigration-from-farmer-to-empress-chapter-242","transmigration-from-farmer-to-empress-chapter-240",2136,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Ftransmigration-from-farmer-to-empress-cover.jpg"]
