After Su Pan'er and the others hauled off the furniture yesterday, Mrs. Qin-Chen became vexed and cursed up a storm.
She then thought about how the furniture was stockpiled, and how she had gained three taels of silver from it, which finally cheered her up.
Upon returning to her maiden house in the evening, she proudly shared this to her mother. But, to her surprise, her mother flew into a rage upon hearing it!
"Are you talking about that mahogany carved big bed stored at the bottom of the warehouse?"
She slammed the table and glared, "Good heavens... that bed was left by your grandfather, he said it should be considered a family heirloom no matter what! You lot are such spendthrifts... Go retrieve it now!"
Heirloom?
This revelation sent the Chen family into chaos!
The old woman was full of resentment, denouncing Mrs. Qin-Chen relentlessly.
Mrs. Qin-Chen was shocked by this sudden turn of events, standing sullenly to the side, frightened to retort.
