When her life was gradually improving, and Ms. Wang started to see hope, Gu Chaoyan planned to talk to her about the Jiang family breaking off the engagement. She believed that, at that point, Ms. Wang might be more accepting of the situation.
Gu Chaoyan had this plan in mind, so she refrained from bringing up the matter for now.
Despite the discussion being centered around the fields, Ms. Wang still wore a concerned expression.
With the people from the old house no longer bothering them, the potential bullying from others in the North Village became a real concern. Being orphans and widows without a man in the house, they could easily become targets.
Fifteen acres of fields seemed challenging to defend.
“Danqiu, have you considered it? As orphans and widows, it might be hard to keep so much land. If exchanging some fields for stability is an option, we should think about it,” Ms. Wang suggested, leaning towards a solution involving money.
Yan Danqiu understood the reasoning behind Ms. Wang’s perspective. Having been accustomed to a life of hardship and bullying in the past, it was natural for her to consider such an approach.
However, Yan Danqiu had a different vision for the future. She didn’t want them to settle for less and compromise their principles. If everyone adopted that mindset, their future would be compromised.
“The people from the old house don’t just want some land; they want it all. Moreover, they want to interfere in Danxia and Dandong’s marriages. We can compromise on the land, but what about Danxia and Dandong? I don’t want them to be at the mercy of the people from the old house. You know what kind of people they are. I fear they might dictate their marriages as they please, taking advantage of the betrothal gifts. I’m not willing. As the eldest sister, I am responsible for taking care of them,” Yan Danqiu explained, weighing the pros and cons of the situation.
Danxia and Dandong nodded in agreement.
“Now that we have the land, even if we can’t fully utilize it, we must leverage it to secure the maximum benefits for ourselves,” Gu Chaoyan continued. “Everyone is taking advantage of our vulnerability in the absence of our father and the lack of men in the household.”
“…”
“If need be, we can find a solution to that. Danxia and Dandong are still young, so they can stay by your side. When they get married in the future, they will eventually leave. I am considering the option of adopting a son for you, so that the people from the old house won’t covet our land anymore. Additionally, the adoptive family can offer significant support.” Gu Chaoyan proposed.
Ms. Wang, Danxia, and Dandong were astonished, looking at their eldest sister with wide-opened mouths.
It was indeed a brilliant idea.
Why hadn’t they thought of it? They had been vexed over their predicament, and here was a solution that could potentially liberate their family.
“However, we must handle this matter carefully. We shouldn’t give away everything in the family to the adopted child. We need to choose the person wisely and settle the matter prudently,” Gu Chaoyan continued.
“…”
“Danxia and Dandong must divide the fields at home equally.”
“…”
“As for this new field, we might not be able to cultivate it immediately. We can either rent it out or hire someone to cultivate it,” Gu Chaoyan outlined the necessary arrangements.
Gu Chaoyan’s proactive approach filled Ms. Wang with hope, and she couldn’t help but smile.
After her parents left, Yan Danqiu stood up to begin implementing the plans.
