Zhenfubao waved his hand and the warehouse was full of grain, and the whole family regretted it

Zhao Qiaolan's tears pattered on her clothes, her voice trembling with tears: "So when you said yesterday that you were going to the academy to review your lessons, you meant that kind of place..."

"Wife! How can you believe these dirty, scoundrel nonsense!"

Sun Xing rubbed his knees against the bricks and moved to Zhao Qiaolan, grabbing her skirt.

"It was Prince Wang and his men who insisted on dragging me along. Those girls kept pestering me to get me drunk, and I couldn't push them away!

Don’t you understand me yet? Ever since I married you, you are the only one in my heart and eyes! "

In the corner, Bai Wanwan and Bai Qiaoniang looked at each other and turned away at the same time.

Bai Wanwan raised her hands to cover her mouth and nose, feeling nauseous.

Sun Xing's hair was askew, his clothes were stained with rouge, and his mouth reeked of alcohol when he spoke. How could he have the confidence to defend himself in this state?

Bai Qiaoniang sneered and muttered in a low voice: "You are much better at talking about horse racing than reading."

Zhao Qiaolan turned around abruptly, her red eyes burning with anger as she glared at Bai Qiaoniang: "Who are you to interfere? This is our Sun family's business! If you find it annoying, go back to your own yard!"

Bai Qiaoniang sneered, folding her arms and taking a step forward. "How funny! It's not your place to make decisions at the Bai family's doorstep, yet you're the one throwing a tantrum?"

"Enough! Stop arguing!" The scarred man in the lead suddenly kicked over the wooden stool at his feet. The loud noise startled everyone.

He drew the short knife from his waist and swung the blade back and forth across Sun Xing's face:

"If we keep arguing, this scholar will lose face! Either pay the money or come with us!

Once he was thrown into the government jail, his reputation as a scholar was gone."

Zhao Qiaolan fell heavily to the ground with a "thump", and her forehead instantly swelled up and a red mark appeared.

She clutched the hem of Mr. Bai's clothes tightly, her tears soaking the fabric with large stains.

"Dad! Mom! What will happen to our three children if Ah Xing is arrested?

They are still so young, they can’t be without their father!”

Sun Xing, who was sitting slumped on the ground, had his neck pinched by the strong man until it was bruised and purple, but he still squeezed out a hoarse plea for mercy: "Father-in-law and mother-in-law, for the sake of Qiaolan and the child... I, I will definitely..."

Mrs. Bai sighed and said, "What a sin... How can our Bai family fill this hole..."

Bai Qiaoniang sighed and said in a light tone:

"This is your Sun family's own business, and it's not easy for our Bai family to intervene.

Zhao Qiaolan, you can't always rely on our parents for everything, right?

Your man got into big trouble outside, why should our parents clean up his mess?

Besides, you've been married for so many years, and you haven't been filial to your parents. Now you come asking for retirement money when you're in trouble. Isn't that unreasonable?"

Zhao Qiaolan was so anxious that tears streamed down her face. She rushed to Mrs. Bai and grabbed her hand:

"Mom! Please save us! If Ah Xing is captured, how will we survive? Are you so cruel?

You've never helped me in all these years! When Bai Qiaoniang got married, you gave her so much dowry and sent her off with such a grand ceremony.

But what about me? They just gave me a tattered quilt and sent me to the Sun family.

I am already very grateful that the Sun family didn't despise me.

You helped Ah Xing this time, and when he becomes rich in the future, he will definitely honor you well!"

Bai Wanwan stood in the corner and shook her head, wondering in her heart, why is Zhao Qiaolan so confused?

It's obvious that Sun Xing is not a reliable person. He spends his time drinking and carousing and is in debt. Even when someone comes to his house, he still tells lies.

It was obvious that he was an irresponsible man, but Zhao Qiaolan was devoted to him and even begged her parents to help him fill the hole.

She couldn't help but think, there are so many good men in this world, why does she have to stick with such a good-for-nothing and put herself and her whole family in danger?

Baiyin gritted his teeth and said:

"Qiaolan, I've made it clear.

I can lend you these three thousand taels, but you have to write a document severing ties with me.

Don't come to me again about your affairs with the Sun family. Just think of this money as your dowry."

Zhao Qiaolan's eyes widened suddenly, tears welling up in her eyes:

"Dad! Just for these three thousand taels of silver, you want to break off relations with me?

No matter how useless I am, I am still your biological daughter!

You lost me back then, and it took a lot of effort to find me. Are you really going to ignore me now?

How can you be a parent like this?"

Bai Yin stared at Zhao Qiaolan and said:

"Tell me, what should we do as parents?

Show me the way!"

Zhao Qiaolan's eyes were red, and her voice became sharp: "I am your own daughter! Now my man is in trouble, and you, as a father, don't help, what kind of parents are you?"

"Help?" Baiyin suddenly sneered, his laughter carrying a hint of sadness.

"How many times have you come back to see us these days? Where were you when we were eating leftovers at home?

You brought the entire Sun family here to eat and drink for free, even taking the jar of pickled vegetables, and now you have the nerve to ask for three thousand taels?"

He became more and more excited as he spoke, and his hands began to tremble slightly.

Zhao Qiaolan's mother-in-law suddenly jumped out, put her hands on her hips and shouted in a shrill voice:

"You're already complaining after eating a few meals from you! We've come here because we're desperate, we're not here to eat and drink for free!

Ah Xing is a genuine scholar, and he will be taking the imperial examination soon. When he wins first place..."

She deliberately dragged out the last word, sweeping her gaze over the crowd with pride: "When the time comes, your Bai family will benefit from it. What does this little sacrifice mean now?"

Baiyin was so angry that he trembled all over. He grabbed the teacup on the table and threw it to the ground:

"Number one scholar? Him?

You indulge in eating, drinking, whoring and gambling, and you still want to be the top scorer in the imperial examination? You are dreaming!"

The situation in the house was tense. The debt collectors folded their arms and sneered at the side, chuckling from time to time, making the farce even more absurd.

Mr. Bai took out the severance document he had prepared long ago and said, "Think it over carefully. Once you put your fingerprints on it, there will no longer be a daughter of the Zhao family in this world."

Zhao Qiaolan bit her lips, her nails digging deep into her palms. When she closed her eyes, a tear rolled down her cheek and fell on the document, creating tiny wrinkles.

“Press it!” She grabbed the pen and scribbled her name at the end.

Everyone in the Sun family was immediately in an uproar.

Zhao Qiaolan's mother-in-law rushed over and grabbed Bai Yin's sleeve tightly:

"Aren't you going to kill us?

Ah Xing is about to become very successful. If you break off the relationship now, you will be cutting off your family's path to prosperity!"

Several Sun brothers also joined in the commotion, spitting at Mr. Bai's face: "How can you be a father-in-law like this? If you stand by and watch someone die without helping, everyone will laugh at you if the news gets out!"

Baiyin pointed at the door and said sternly:

"Take all your tattered bedding out before sunset today!

From now on, no one will ever step foot into the Bai family's doorstep again."

He grabbed the broom from the corner and snapped it fiercely. Amidst the flying wood chips, the scarred debt collector whistled, "Great! Great! Give me the money, and we'll take the man away!"

Zhao Qiaolan stared blankly at the mess on the ground, and the young son in her arms suddenly burst into tears.

She wanted to reach out and hug him, but Sun Xing grabbed her and said, "What are you still standing there for? Hurry up and pack your things! When I become the top scholar, they will regret it!"
