Chapter 489: Arrangement

Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations

Sr. Zhou was furious and wanted to attack her, but his eldest son quickly stopped him.

It wasn’t that the eldest son of the Zhou family cared about his sister, Song Zhou.

It was because Song Zhou’s words had reminded him.

At this moment, there were too many eyes on the Song family. If the Zhou family and Song Zhou really quarreled here, it would damage their reputation.

It would also be quite disadvantageous to their future plans!

Therefore, the eldest son of the Zhou family made the decision to retreat in order to advance. At the very least, they couldn’t completely anger Song Zhou now.

” Sister, 1 know you must feel terrible after encountering such an incident.

It’s my fault for not taking good care of you. If I had found out earlier that Song Jianxing was a scoundrel and supported you, you wouldn’t have suffered so much.

It’s right for you to blame us.

However, in the current situation, it’s really not the time to fuss over such trivial matters. No matter how difficult it is, people have to look forward.”

The eldest son of the Zhou family run the shop for so many years, so he was slick and cunning.

Seeing that Song Zhou was silent, he continued to persuade her, “You’re right to want to protect the assets that Old Master Song left behind.

After all, the four of you still have to rely on this shop to survive.

However, as a woman, you think of some things too simply.

You only have three daughters. It’s not that I despise the three of them, but you don’t have a son after all, so you don’t have a way to settle down.

When your father-in-law passed away back then, the reason your mother-in-law was able to keep this family fortune was because she had a son. This way, even if the Song family wanted to cause trouble, they had no excuse! But what do you have to rely on now?

You’re empty-handed and have ownerless assets in your hands. Do you think the Song family will let you off easily?

No matter what, we’re your family. Perhaps in your opinion, we’re a little selfish, but we definitely won’t force you and your daughters into a dead end like the others!

I know you’re probably feeling terrible now!

But 1 still hope you can take these words to heart.

“How about this? Since you’re in a bad mood today, we won’t stay any longer. In short, if you encounter any difficulties next, feel free to arrange for someone to send us a letter.

No matter what, we’re your family!

No matter what you think of us, we definitely won’t abandon you.”

It had to be said that compared to Sr. Zhou, who only knew how to use intimidation to solve problems, the eldest son of the Zhou family was much better at using emotional persuasion.

As expected, as soon as he said this, Song Zhou’s expression softened.

It wasn’t that Song Zhou had really been persuaded by the Zhou family’s eldest son’s words and started to give in to her family again, but because the Zhou family’s eldest son’s words had given her a very important message.

That was the attitude of the Song clansmen!

Previously, Song Jianxing had suggested that the Song family adopt the child. However, due to the county governor’s objection, his plan failed!

However, although the Song family couldn’t directly take control of the Song family’s assets by adopting that child, it didn’t mean that they had no other way.

For example, adoption.

Because she didn’t give birth to a son for Song Jianxing, the Song family could have the patriarch come forward and suggest that the Song family adopt a son to interfere in their family matters.

At that time, if the Song family really succeeded and adopted a son, it would be no different from inviting a wolf into their house!

Because the son was still young, the Song family could use this to take away the right to use and manage the shop and courtyard in their hands.

Then, the mother and daughters would be kicked out!

The Song family was eyeing the shop and courtyard covetously, but the Zhou family was also unworthy of her trust.

Song Zhou didn’t stop the Zhou family from leaving. She watched with a dark expression as Sr. Zhou and the others left while cursing. Then, she lowered her head and looked at her eldest daughter, who was looking at her worriedly. She forced a smile and said, “Don’t be afraid. 1 have your backs!”

Currently, the most troublesome problem Song Zhou was facing was Old Madam Guo’s funeral.

Song Jianxing had committed such an unforgivable felony and had long been publicly removed from the genealogy by the Song family’s patriarch. Therefore, it was impossible for him to be allowed to be buried in the Song family’s ancestral grave.

But Old Madam Guo was different.

She was Mr. Song’s first wife and a victim. Since she had suffered so much when she was alive, her funeral had to be held no matter what.

Therefore, Song Zhou didn’t delay things. After tidying up the house, she went to find Constable Wang next door. With Constable Wang’s help, she went to the government with the undertaker to retrieve Old Madam Guo’s corpse.

At night, the Song family’s mourning hall was set up with the help of the surrounding neighbors.

Old Madam Guo had died at the hands of her most beloved son. This was quite a scandal.

Therefore, the Guo family burned two incense sticks before leaving in a hurry.

Mrs. Luo went over again after night fell. Firstly, she went to deliver some food to Song Zhou and her daughters. In addition, she asked her about her next arrangements.

After all, they lived in the same neighborhood and were old friends with Old Madam Guo. Now that she was gone, the remaining neighbors should come over and send her off.

“There’s one more thing. Your uncle asked me to ask you if you have any arrangements for your husband’s funeral?” After Mrs. Luo briefly explained the next arrangements, she asked Song Zhou about another important matter.

Song Jianxing was a bastard, but after all, he was Old Madam Guo’s most beloved son and her daughters’ father…

“Don’t worry, after he got executed, he was burned to ashes by the officials. When I went to pick up my mother-in-law previously, I also picked him up.” When she heard Mrs. Luo ask this, a strange smile appeared on Song Zhou’s face. “1 arranged the best place for him.. I believe both he and my mother-in-law will be very satisfied!”
