The Little Lucky Girl of the Hunter Family
Chapter 64 It’s just the beginning
Jiang Yao knew that if she didn't spend some money today, Jiang Xuean's troubles would not be solved!
She lowered her head and thought for a while, then pretended to complain: "Dad, you only see us selling things here, but you don't know what the cost of purchasing these things is?"
"You want ten taels of silver. How can I possibly get so much in such a short time? Then you just wait here. I will send it to you when I have collected all the money."
Having said that, Jiang Yao was thinking in her heart that when she found Jiang Xue'an, she would definitely teach him a lesson to prevent him from having any bad ideas.
She didn't know that the widow had already seen through her thoughts.
Last night, the widow told Jiang Xue'an that if the two women asked him to leave first on the grounds of lack of money, he would never agree.
Jiang Xuean knew the reason behind this.
Now hearing Jiang Yaozhen say this, he secretly praised her, saying that she was indeed a smart man. Then he leaned against the wall with a gangster-like look.
"Don't play dumb in front of me! I don't believe that after working in this industry for so many years, you can still come up with ten taels of silver? If you want, just catch that bitch Lu and bring her to me! Otherwise, go ask Old Madam Lu."
"Anyway, I'm telling you, I won't leave without money!"
As soon as these words were spoken, they were immediately met with a barrage of curses, but there was nothing they could do. They could only persuade Jiang Yao to donate the money as a token of her love for him.
At this point, Jiang Yao had no choice but to take out some money to appease Jiang Xue'an.
"Okay, I'll go back and take a look."
Seeing Jiang Yao give in, Jiang Xue'an became even more proud, "Hurry up! If you delay a step, the ten taels will be reduced to fifteen taels!"
If there weren't so many people around, Jiang Yao would have slapped him in the face.
Since she had to pay, why did she let Jiang Xuean bully her? Of course, she had to beat Jiang Xuean up and then pay, so that she would feel better.
I walked quickly into the house and saw Mrs. Lu, Old Madam Lu and her three sisters waiting inside.
"Yao'er, do we really want to leave this matter to that bastard?" Lu was the first to speak, and the hatred in her eyes almost wanted to tear Jiang Xuean into pieces.
In fact, she also wanted to leave, but Mrs. Lu stopped her and told her not to disturb Jiang Yao anymore.
Old Mrs. Lu has been in contact with Jiang Yao for a long time and knows that Jiang Yao is the most capable person in the family. If they are allowed to leave, they may fall into the hands of Jiang Xuean and suffer greater harm.
Seeing that everyone's eyes were on her, Jiang Yao forced a smile and said soothingly.
"Grandma, mother, sister, don't worry, I won't let him eat too much, and I won't let him be proud for too long."
"This time, we can use money to convince him. When he comes to us again, I will be able to find a solution, so don't worry."
Jiang Yao took out a purse from the closet, originally intending to give Jiang Xuean a little over a hundred coins.
However, thinking of Jiang Xue'an's look just now, and the fact that he asked for ten taels of silver right away, Jiang Yao hardened her heart and added one more pound.
With the money, Jiang Yao comforted her family and then went out to meet Jiang Xuean.
"Dad, I spent all the money in my house to save up this ingot of silver. How about this, you keep it as a deposit, and I will return it to you later."
Jiang Yao's voice was full of pleading, but her eyes were getting redder and redder, and tears kept falling.
It hurts to look at it.
As soon as Jiang Xue'an saw her expression, he knew she was acting, but everyone else thought Jiang Yao was being wronged and started to scold her loudly.
Under the pressure of the crowd and seeing the viciousness in Jiang Yao's eyes, Jiang Xue'an was shocked and pretended to be calm as he took the purse.
He looked like he was doing something good: "I'm in a good mood today, so I'll do as you say."
"But if you dare to take advantage of me, I will bankrupt you! If I can't survive, no one else can survive!"
After confirming that there was indeed a piece of silver in the purse, Jiang Xue'an was sure that he had caught Jiang Yao.
After saying these harsh words, Jiang Xue'an squeezed through the crowd cursing and stumbled out of Qiushan Village.
Seeing him leave, Jiang Yao's eyes lit up and she bit her lips tightly.
Jiang Xuean, I think you should make good use of this wonderful time.
With the comfort of the villagers, Jiang Yao gradually stopped crying and choked up as she thanked everyone.
She saw from a distance that Mr. Li had parked the ox cart, bowed to them, then said goodbye and went back, asking her second sister to help bring the food to the inn.
Jiang Xue'an came back with a large sum of money, and he was almost embarrassed when he came back.
When the widow saw how happy he was, she thought he would get ten taels of silver immediately and started to flatter him.
"As expected of you, Brother An! I'm not feeling well right now and I'm not in the mood to cook. Can you treat me to a meal?"
Seeing that the widow was looking at him with admiration, Jiang Xue'an simply waved his hand and threw the purse onto the table with great pride.
"What do you want? Play however you want!"
"What? One pound!" The woman thought she was hallucinating. She touched her ears, a hint of surprise flashed in her eyes, and the smile on her face disappeared.
"Why did you come here so early in the morning? Were you deceived by those bitches? Or are you scared? It's just a piece of silver, what can you do with it? I'm so angry!"
Jiang Xue'an saw that the woman's face turned red, but he was not angry. Instead, he happily hugged the widow, held her in his arms, and comforted her.
"This is just the beginning. Once they pay ten taels of silver, I will not allow them to move out of their registered permanent residence, and I will ask for more silver."
"This way, we have one more fat sheep. Come, I'll treat you to a delicious meal. You look so skinny!"
When the woman heard what Jiang Xue'an said, her face was also full of smiles. Jiang Xue'an took the opportunity to rub some grease on her waist and then took the widow out for dinner.
During this time, the two happened to pass by Mr. Li's carriage, but they were both thinking about their own things and did not see Jiang Yao, and Jiang Yao did not see them either.
Jiang Yao and her second sister hurried home to see that their family members were still worried and looked unhappy.
This is really difficult to handle.
His brows were tightly furrowed, forming two deep furrows, as if carrying a heavy burden. His eyes were slightly narrowed, revealing hesitation and struggle, like a traveler lost in the thick fog, unable to find a way out. His lips were tightly pursed, and the corners of his mouth were turned down. His originally rosy lips now looked a little pale. His teeth bit his lower lip gently, as if he was trying to restrain his inner entanglement. The muscles on his face were tense, and every fine line was full of embarrassment. That expression seemed to be bound by invisible ropes, wanting to break free but unable to do so. He subconsciously raised his hand and scratched the back of his head. This simple action made his inner uneasiness more prominent. His breathing became rapid, and his chest rose and fell violently, as if every breath took a huge effort. It was like standing at a fork in the road. Whether to the left or the right, there were unpredictable difficulties and consequences. This dilemma made his expression more solemn and painful.
