The stepsister of a peasant family in a book is spoiled by the big brothers

Xue Weifeng leaned back in his chair, his eyes full of resentment: "You can't just stop like that! At least give me some time to prepare myself mentally."

Tang Yichen said calmly: "How much silver do you have?"

Xue Weifeng laughed dryly: "Do you think I can keep the money? I just thought that the day of paying is coming soon, so I relaxed a little..."

"Do you owe money?" Qin Huiyin hit the nail on the head.

Xue Weifeng: "..."

Seeing him look so pale, how could Qin Huiyin and Tang Yichen not understand? The brother and sister looked at each other, both with similar speechless expressions.

Judging from Xue Weifeng's previous lavish spending, his family was particularly spoiled towards him. Given his wealth, it was likely that his family had a mountain of gold to support him.

Now, no one knows who has figured out that this dandy can no longer be allowed to continue, so they stopped paying him. In fact, this should have been done a long time ago.

"How much do you owe?"

"There's still three hundred taels left at Chunfeng Tower. And the rest of the money from Yushizhai, Qibaozhai, Luo's Pastry Shop... Anyway, all together, it should be a thousand taels."

Qin Huiyin: "..."

Tang Yichen said calmly, "Returning those messy things of yours should help you recover some of your losses. You can figure out a way to get rid of the three hundred taels from Chunfeng Tower yourself."

"Sister Huiyin, the little rich lady, can you..."

"No." Qin Huiyin interrupted him with a smile. "I can guarantee that you won't go hungry. You can eat three meals a day with our family and eat whatever you want. As for the rest, you should figure out how to deal with the troubles you caused yourself. Brother Wei Feng, you are a man, it's not right for you to live dependent on a woman, right?"

Xue Weifeng was miserable.

"They also said that if I passed the provincial examination, they would give me some money. If I failed, I would never get any money from my family again."

"That's how it should be." Tang Yichen said in agreement.

"Hey, if you're my brother, don't rub salt into my wounds." Xue Weifeng glared at Tang Yichen.

"I'm a half-disabled person and I haven't given up. You have both normal hands and feet, so why can't you give it a try? There's still a month left. If you work hard, maybe you can have enough food and clothing again."

Qin Huiyin pushed Tang Yichen's uninjured arm and scolded him, "What nonsense are you talking about? Where are you disabled? You're just injured. You'll be fine in the future."

Xue Weifeng was not comforted. In fact, it is easy to go from simple to extravagant, but it is difficult to go from extravagant to simple.

"You should return those things you don't need and see how much you can get back." Qin Huiyin reminded, "The store is crowded with customers, so I'll continue to work."

Qin Huiyin had just returned to the store when Tang Luwu trotted over and said mysteriously, "I found out that the man is Li Jingyan's brother."

"The small one hasn't been cleaned up yet, and here comes a big one?" Li Taohua happened to pass by and heard the conversation between the two sisters.

"Brother Ruize said that Li Jingyan is the legitimate son. She has no brothers, only a half-brother who competes with her for the family fortune." Qin Huiyin said, "The enemy of my enemy is my friend. This person needs further observation."

Xia Ruwan came to the store in the afternoon.

"I just went to the dyeing factory to take a look," she said angrily. "That Li lady is so shameless. She found you too difficult to deal with, so she attacked my dyeing factory."

Qin Huiyin brought French fries and juice and placed them in front of her: "What did she do again?"

"She poached our master," Xia Ruwan said. "The dyeing workshop is in shambles now. Can this woman just run her own business? Why does she have to resort to such despicable tactics to suppress her rivals?"

"As long as her opponent falls, she doesn't have to do anything to become the final winner. For her, this is her business strategy!" Qin Huiyin said, "Don't worry, the opponent is not having an easy time either."

Qin Huiyin told Xia Ruwan that the business was no longer viable.

"Isn't Aunt Li so powerful?" Xia Ruwan exclaimed.

"Hush! She didn't tell me, and I pretended not to know. We just need to figure out what's going on. Anyway, my mother has let out her anger, so just don't hold it in." Qin Huiyin said, "The other party started it first, and my mother retaliated in kind. This is what's called cause and effect."

"This eldest son of the Li family... I wonder where he comes from and whether he is easy to deal with?" Xia Ruwan said.

"I heard he's very handsome."

"How handsome?"

"I didn't see her face, but she was wearing a flashy red outfit, so I guess she's pretty good-looking, right?"

"Ahem!" the waiter coughed lightly and said, "Masters, we have guests."

Qin Huiyin and Xia Ruwan turned around at the same time and saw a young man standing in front of them, dressed in red, with a bright smile and a face that could be described as gorgeous.

"Boss, my name is Li Congxiao."

"A rather good-looking man named Li dressed in a flashy red?" Xia Ruwan muttered. "The one across the street?"

Li Congxiao smiled unchanged: "Yes, I am the eldest son of the Li family."

Qin Huiyin and Xia Ruwan looked at each other.

I was just saying bad things about the other person, but I didn't expect that he or she heard it. It was really embarrassing.

The two men stood up and returned the greeting.

"Mr. Li, have you come to the wrong place? Your store is across the street, and our place is on a different road from yours." Xia Ruwan said.

Although Xia Ruwan looks gentle and has a sweet voice, she can be very vicious when she strikes someone.

"I came here specially to visit you and would like to invite you two bosses to have a simple meal. I wonder if you two bosses will give me this opportunity to apologize?"

"This is our first meeting, how can we talk about apologizing or not?"

"My sister is willful and a bit childish in her behavior, which has caused trouble for the two bosses. I came here today to apologize to the two bosses. I hope you will forgive my mistakes."

"She offended us, and you come to apologize, but your sincerity is not very strong!" Xia Ruwan said.

"My sister is spoiled and has a bad temper. If you two bosses don't mind, please go to Qingyue Restaurant and I will show my sincerity."

Qingyue Restaurant was Xia Ruwan's territory, and Li Congxiao couldn't have been unaware of this. He was a man who knew how to win people's hearts and was a meticulous person.

Xia Ruwan and Qin Huiyin exchanged glances, exchanged information, and Xia Ruwan agreed.

Li Congxiao came to apologize as soon as he appeared. Did he really want a truce, or did he want them to let down their guard?

Li Congxiao made an appointment for dinner in the evening.

After he left, Li Taohua said she would accompany them in the evening.

Qin Huiyin deliberately said, "This Li Congxiao is indeed good-looking."

Tang Dafu held Li Taohua and said, "Wife, Daniu and the others invited us over for dinner. We agreed to it. Huiyin can't go, so we can't break the appointment."

"Yes, mother, we made an appointment at Qingyue Restaurant. Everyone there is our people. If there is anything to worry about, it should be him. What do we have to worry about?" Qin Huiyin advised.
