Wu Bazi shook out the IOU and said, "Here is the IOU. It's forty taels of silver in total. You are the guarantor!"

"Me? When?"

"Humph, are you still playing dumb in front of me?" Wu Bazi said coldly, "Open your dog eyes and see clearly, it's written in black and white, and it was signed by you yourself!"

Jiang Qingzhou went forward to take a closer look and was shocked again.

It turned out to be a promissory note signed by that little bastard Jiang Sining, but the guarantor was indeed his name!

And looking at the handwriting, it was really written by him!

But how is this possible?

How come he never remembers this happening?

"Brother, I have never lent money or guaranteed anyone. This must be a misunderstanding."

"Yes, yes, it must be a misunderstanding!" Jiang Hua said, "Besides, it was that little bastard who borrowed the money, you should go and ask her for it!"

"If she had, could I come find you guys?"

"But I didn't borrow the money, and I won't pay for others."

"Okay," Wu Bazi put away the IOU and said, "You can deny it if you want. Then don't go to the county to study in the future. Otherwise, I will go to the academy to find you every day, and you can forget about taking the imperial examination."

"You...you are going too far!" Jiang Hua was furious and shouted, "My son will definitely pass the imperial examination and become a high-ranking official. Aren't you afraid that he will take you away in the future?"

"Hahaha……"

Wu Bazi and a few others burst into laughter.

"In the future? I don't care about your future!" Wu Bazi said, "I know that it is only natural to pay back debts! Even if the king of heaven comes, this money must be repaid!"

"I don't have money, but I have my life!"

Jiang Hua made up her mind and just lay down on the ground.

This is 40 taels of silver, and that doesn't include interest. If she could get away with it by just lying down, she could lie down for a whole day and night!

"Bah - shameless old man," Wu Bazi spat out a mouthful of thick phlegm, "You are as old as a rag, lying on the ground waiting for a dog to ride on you?"

"Jiang Qingzhou!" Wu Bazi shouted, "Just tell me, are you going to return the money or not?"

"Brother, it would be better if they don't return it. We can just stay at his house." One of the subordinates said, "I heard that this guy has a niece who just reached the age of marriage this year, hehehe..."

"His daughters-in-law seem to be pretty good looking, too."

"This old woman is too ugly, just throw her into the pigsty."

……

After being threatened by several people, Liu and Jiang Qingmei were so scared that they hid in the house and trembled, hating Jiang Qingzhou in their hearts.

What a crappy scholar, he spent a lot of money from his family and brought these ruffians back to suffer.

Jiang Qingzhou knew that if these people couldn't get the money, they would really do anything.

He also knew that it must be that little bastard who was behind this, making him become a guarantor for no apparent reason.

But even so, he had no choice but to swallow his anger.

"return!"

"Son, you..."

"Mother, give it to them." Jiang Qingzhou said with a cold face, "I will definitely find that little bastard and give us an explanation later."

Jiang Hua got up from the ground. It had been a year since her eldest daughter died, and there was not much silver left from what she had brought back.

If we sell off a few dozen more taels, the market will basically be at rock bottom!

"Don't you have silver?" Wu Bazi said cheerfully, "The principal is 40 taels, and the interest is 5 taels. Give me the silver, and tear up the IOU. No one is cheated!"

"Five... five taels of interest? That much?"

"Old woman, how can you say that?" Wu Bazi said, "I didn't ask you to borrow money from me. The interest rate is written in black and white."

Jiang Hua endured the severe pain in her heart and took out 45 taels of silver.

After Wu Bazi and the others took the silver and walked out of the courtyard satisfied, she fell to the ground with black eyes and couldn't catch her breath.

"You little bastard, I'm not done with you!"

……

On the top of the mountain.

Si Chenan was finally able to eat normally. At this time, Jiang Sining's family of four were sitting around a big rock, eating the big meat buns made by Aunt Li.

"Madam, it seems that grandma still has silver."

"She has a shitload of money," Jiang Sining said. "The Jiang family's house, forests, fertile fields, and the family's food and clothing for 13 years were all bought with my mother's money."

"Oh?" Si Chenan was slightly surprised and asked, "My mother-in-law... why does she have so much money?"

"I don't know either." Jiang Sining said, "I only know that she went to the capital twice when she was young, and came back after giving birth to me. But she doesn't know who my father is, and she refuses to tell, but she can get a sum of money every year, and the amount is not small."

After saying that, she looked at Si Chenan and said, "You happened to have grown up in the capital. Can you help me analyze whether I could be the illegitimate daughter of a wealthy family?"

Si Chenan smiled bitterly.

The capital city is so big, there are so many rich people, and there are even more illegitimate children.

How can he draw a conclusion when he doesn’t even know the last name?

"Madam, do you have any token of love?"

When he asked this, Jiang Sining really remembered that when he was a child, he did see a emerald green jade pendant in his original mother's box.

But after she passed away, I never saw it again, and I don’t know who took it.

However, the jade pendant looked very ordinary, without any patterns or inscriptions, and its shape was also very ordinary. It should not be a token of trust, but more likely just a small and valuable toy.

But even if it's just a toy, it still belongs to the original mother, so I still have to take it back.

So after dinner, Jiang Sining went to Jiang's house alone.

When she saw Jiang Sining, Jiang Hua's eyes turned green.

"You little bastard, you still dare to come?"

"Your home is not hell, why shouldn't I dare to come?"

"What did you say?"

"Don't be so fierce," Jiang Sining said, "I'm here to take back my mother's things."

"No!" Jiang Hua said, "When your mother died, all her things were burned!"

Knowing that she would definitely not give it to him voluntarily, Jiang Sining said, "What I want is a jade pendant, which cannot be destroyed by burning."

"Then bury it with your damned mother."

"Okay then," Jiang Sining said, picking up a hoe from under the eaves, "I'll go dig up her grave now and see if there's anything there."

"what are you up to?"

Jiang Hua’s eyes almost popped out.

Listen to what this little bastard says and what he does!

A daughter actually wants to dig up her own mother's grave!

Oh my God, is this little bastard a devil?

But she knew that this little bastard was capable of anything!

"Mom, what's the matter?"

Jiang Qingzhou heard the noise, walked out of the house, and saw Jiang Sining at a glance.

This was the second time Jiang Sining met him, but the two of them had already been destined to fight to the death, so neither of them was polite, and the gazes of both sides were as cold as ice on a snowy mountain.

"Girl Ning."

"Uncle."

"I really didn't expect that little Ning is so cruel and ruthless." Jiang Qingzhou said.

"My dear uncle, you are too kind," Jiang Sining said, "Compared to your family, I am still far behind."

Jiang Qingzhou sneered and said to Jiang Huashi: "Just give her what she wants."

"But……"

Jiang Qingzhou's face changed, and he said coldly: "I will give it to you if I say so. Can't you hear me?"

Since he had spoken, Jiang Hua had no choice but to go back to the house, take out the jade pendant that Jiang Xiu had treasured so much in the past, and give it to Jiang Sining with great heartache.

The jade pendant is emerald green and transparent, without any impurities, and it feels cool to the touch, so it must be a top-quality jade.

Jiang Sining looked at it carefully again and found no patterns or engravings, so he put it away.

"Ning girl," Jiang Qingzhou said, "You are really not afraid of death by doing this?"

"What's there to be afraid of in death?"

I've already died once!

Jiang Sining was too lazy to engage in a meaningless war of words with him, so he threw away the hoe and turned away.

She knew that Jiang Qingzhou would never give up, and as a scholar, he had seen more of the world and had a more flexible mind, so his next moves would surely be more brutal and ruthless.

Come on.

She needs to get rid of these annoying people as soon as possible, she still has a lot of things to do.
