Chapter 176: Pay back the silver and I will return your indentures to you!
"What do you mean we have no relationship for a long time? Look at the appearance of me and this boy. Who would believe that we are not father and son?"
Boss Zhang pointed at Qingshan and then pointed at his own face. The two men were indeed very similar.
Madam Zhang glared at Lu Shui fiercely, "You little bitch, come here, you don't even recognize your own parents?"
Fortunately, I came to the city to buy things today, and heard people from the same village say that they saw them in the inn, otherwise they would have raised them for so many years in vain.
"master."
Qingshan took a deep breath and said, "One of them is my father, and the other is my stepmother.
But I don’t owe them anything. He is a live-in son-in-law. After my mother died, all the property was left to him.”
"What are you talking about?"
Boss Zhang was humiliated. He hated being called a live-in son-in-law the most.
It is also because of this that he is very disgusted with the children born to his ex-wife.
"Brother is not wrong."
Lushui argued in a low voice, and as soon as she finished speaking, she was given a cold look by Madam Zhang, which frightened her so much that she shrank back.
Perhaps this stepmother always bullied her, so her body had formed a conditioned reflex.
"Your father and I raised you with great difficulty, and you call me your stepmother to cancel it out?"
Mrs. Zhang squatted on the ground and cried loudly, as if she had been bullied.
She cried and shouted, "If you don't give me money, you can't take me away!"
Qingshan's eyes turned red with anger, "Don't be so hypocritical here, if you weren't so harsh, my elder sister wouldn't have died of illness!"
So when he overheard that they were going to sell him and his sister, he ran away with his younger sister overnight.
It was just bad luck that I got caught!
"That's her bad luck!"
Boss Zhang's eyes flickered guiltily. A little girl, if she died, she died.
Jiang Wan was getting a headache from all the noise, and she sneered, "Shut up!"
Her cold gaze fell on Boss Zhang and Madam Zhang, and they both shrank their necks at the same time.
This nobleman is very powerful, but for the sake of their children, they must get the money.
"It's true that I bought the green mountains and clear waters."
Jiang Wan raised her chin slightly and said, "But I bought this person for twenty taels of silver.
If you want to take it back, you can, just pay me back, and don’t bother me here.”
She straightened her coat carelessly, her eyes full of casualness.
Song Jiuyuan also came out of the house, "Return the silver and I'll return the indenture to you."
"We... didn't mean that."
Mrs. Zhang was so embarrassed that she said, "We didn't intend to take the person away."
"Song Jiuyuan, I hate trouble."
Jiang Wan glanced at Song Jiuyuan and stood there with her hands folded, obviously not intending to take care of the matter.
Song Jiuyuan smiled dotingly, looked at Boss Zhang with dark eyes, and his voice was filled with ice.
"You have two choices. Either get out of here, or pay me some money and take the person away!"
He had been to the battlefield, and his cold face was indeed scary.
Boss Zhang was so frightened that his legs went limp. He subconsciously looked at Madam Zhang, who was cursing at him.
"No, these two children are already this big, we can't just raise them for nothing!"
"Song Yi, throw it out!"
Song Jiuyuan never liked to drag things out, so with just one sentence, Song Yi picked up Boss Zhang and threw him out of the inn.
"You're going to be thrown out too?"
Jiang Wan glanced at Madam Zhang with a half-smile, and Madam Zhang was so scared that she rolled away!
It was the first time that Qingshan and Lushui saw Madam Zhang in such an embarrassed state, and Lushui rarely smiled.
"Brother, the master is so powerful."
"Well, if we follow a powerful master, we will also be powerful in the future."
Qingshan rubbed his sister's head and came to Jiang Wan apologetically.
"I'm sorry, Master, I'm causing you trouble!"
"It doesn't matter. We will leave Yongba City soon anyway."
Jiang Wan didn't care much, "Maybe you will never see them again."
"Really?" Lushui's face flushed with excitement. She really wanted to escape from her parents as soon as possible.
"Of course it's true."
Jiang Wan nodded with amusement, "Move the things to the carriage, we will set off soon."
"Yes, Master!"
Qingshan agreed without hesitation, and Qiu Niang had already packed the luggage for Madam Song.
Before leaving, Jiang Wan knocked on Lin Tingchen's door. This guy had been sleeping until now after going to bed last night, probably because he was too tired.
After opening the door, Jiang Wan saw Lin Tingchen's messy hair. He scratched his messy hair, looking confused.
"Sister Jiang."
"We are going to continue to Kyushu. This is the travel expenses for you."
Jiang Wan handed Lin Tingchen a purse with some silver in it.
She also helped Lin Tingchen for Lin Tingyu's sake.
Lin Tingchen refused to do it. "Sister Jiang, I don't want to go back to the Lin family. How about I go to Jiuzhou with you?"
"no!"
Song Jiuyuan spoke softly. Qi Chu had become a burden, but he endured it because she was a woman.
With the addition of Lin Tingchen, wouldn’t that lead Lin Tingyu to Jiang Wan again?
Song Jiuyuan was extremely unhappy in his heart. After all, when they arrived in Jiuzhou, Jiang Wan was planning to part ways with him. Wouldn't that give Lin Tingyu an opportunity?
Lin Tingchen looked at him in confusion. Why did he feel that the prince was not his eldest brother's friend at all?
"Jiuzhou is located in a wild and remote place. You can't adapt to it. You'd better go back to the Lin family as soon as possible."
Jiang Wan waved to Lin Tingchen, turned around and went downstairs with Song Jiuyuan.
Lin Tingchen held the purse in his hand and watched them leave, with helplessness in his eyes, but he did not force them in the end.
Now that Song Jiuyuan's legs are better, he rides a horse. Song Jiuchi also feels a little itchy, but he has to drive the carriage.
So he looked at Qingshan who was actively moving things, "Qingshan, can you drive a carriage?"
"Second Master, I can't do that."
Qingshan shook his head honestly. Qiu Niang was mature and steady, and she already knew the relationships among the people in the master's family clearly.
Although they don't know the rules of wealthy families, they are trying hard to learn them.
"Come, I'll teach you."
Song Jiuchi thought that once Qingshan learned it, he could ride the horse by himself.
"With your rubbish skills, you still want to teach others?"
Just then, Qi Chu came out leading the horse, and couldn't help but retort to Song Jiuchi.
Song Jiuchi was so angry that his face turned red and his neck became thick, "Qi, don't look down on me!"
"I'm telling the truth."
Qi Chu snorted, led the horse outside the carriage, and said to Jiang Wan with a smile:
"Sister Jiang, I went to the master's shop early this morning and bought some candied fruit. Take some and try them."
She handed in an oil-paper bag, which contained her thoughts.
"Thank you Chuchu."
Jiang Wan naturally accepted it happily. She noticed a burning gaze falling on herself and Qi Chu.
She raised her eyes and saw the Sixth Prince staring at them solemnly at the window of the inn.
The distance was quite far, so Jiang Wan couldn't see his expression clearly. But thinking about the plot in the original book, she thought that the Sixth Prince must be very angry at this moment.
The more this happened, the better her mood became, and the brighter her smile to Qi Chu became.
