Du's mother was originally very angry at home, but she didn't expect that her son would directly question her as soon as he came back.

Du's mother loved her son very much. She felt a little sad when faced with her son's questioning, but after listening to it, she became even angrier.

Good, what a Jiang family, they actually dare to treat me like this, without any mercy at all.

When Du's mother saw her son like this, she felt somewhat guilty, after all, it was she who caused the incident.

But she always knew her son, so she pretended to be incredulous, with a sad look on her face, and tears just fell, "It's really my fault. If I hadn't been incompetent, I wouldn't have had to buy a few kilograms of rice on credit, causing my son to be laughed at. But I just wanted to keep the money, after all, my son still had to take the exam."

When Du Huaqing saw his mother like this, his anger disappeared. Thinking that his mother did it for him, he couldn't blame her anymore.

Seeing her son's attitude change, Du's mother was secretly proud in her heart, and continued, "But how can the Jiang family act like this? They want to ruin my son's future, but it's just a matter of a few dozen copper coins. What's more, we are still relatives, and this is clearly looking down on our family and thinking that we are poor."

Sure enough, after Du's mother said this, anger appeared on Du Huaqing's face.

What he hated most was being called a poor scholar. In order to study, he had suffered a lot since he was a child. It was not until he was able to read and write that he was finally able to get rid of it.

"Since the Jiang family is so unjust, we will definitely retaliate when my son passes the imperial examination. She is just a merchant and she still dreams of marrying into our family. She is just dreaming. We will just give her some money to get rid of her in the future." Du's mother said viciously.

Deep down in her heart, she naturally couldn't even give them money. Later, she would definitely make them regret what they did today.

When Du Huaqing heard his mother's words, he felt that they made sense. The Jiang family and their family were getting married just for his future prospects.

So after some persuasion from Du's mother, Du Huaqing reluctantly agreed to go and coax Fu Qi again so that the Jiang family would give him money.

Anyway, there will be no problem if you listen to your mother. She will definitely not harm you.

So, when Fu Qi heard that Du Huaqing was coming to see him, his face immediately turned cold. Well, he just wanted to see what tricks he could play.

"Wan Niang." Du Huaqing just opened his mouth when he was interrupted by Fu Qi.

"First, don't call me Wan Niang. We haven't gotten married yet, and it's not polite to call you that. Second, if you want to pay back the silver for your mother, the total amount is sixteen taels and five cents." Fu Qi said.

Du Huaqing was holding back what he wanted to say, and when he heard what Fu Qi said, his face turned red. When did he ever say he wanted to pay? Not to mention that he didn't even have a tael of silver on him.

Du Huaqing stammered, "Wan... Miss Jiang, I came here this time to apologize on behalf of my mother. And my mother was only doing this for my own good, but it was the guy in your store who was so aggressive that my mother got so angry that she fell ill when she returned home."

He didn't mention the money at all, his apology didn't show any sincerity at all, and he even tried to push the responsibility back.

Fu Qi couldn't help but roll his eyes, "Mr. Du, I'm afraid I didn't hear you clearly just now. Your mother owes our store 16 taels and 5 cents. You can't just not pay the money back because the two families have an engagement. I believe Mr. Du is not the kind of person who eats for free."

Fu Qi put his words directly on the table, not caring about his expression at all.
