So, once Wan Chu'er and the villagers of Huangjia Gully had left, the military wives gathered and started buzzing with discussions.
"Do you think Captain Jiang's spouse will really take out the two hundred thousand yuan for Huangjia Gully?"
"Two hundred thousand! My goodness, it would take our men three to four years to earn that much without spending a penny on anything else, not to mention the household expenses."
"Right, let alone two hundred thousand, even if they asked me for two hundred yuan, it would cause me a heartache to death."
"Maybe Captain Jiang's family is rich and doesn't care about the two hundred thousand."
"Rich? If Captain Jiang was rich, he wouldn't be staying in these backwoods. He could use his influence to get a good position in a big city."
"I guess they have a little money, but having a lot seems pretty unlikely."
