"Dad, after Grandpa died, was it you who squandered all our land?"
Cheng Yue couldn't help but ask.
"Of course not. Well, forget it, let's not talk about this. Give me a hand, let's go back! I wonder how panicked your mother must be at home!"
Cheng Shun didn't want to talk about the past, so he pulled Cheng Yue, intending to use Cheng Yue to stand up and put on his shoes.
"Forget it, forget it. If you can't pay Shanshui back the five hundred taels, and he's in a hurry to get it back, just marry you to him. We're family, so it's easy to talk!"
Before Cheng Shun could stand firmly, Cheng Yue suddenly moved aside.
This damn old man, is she only worth five hundred taels?
He actually wanted to use her to pay off his debt. That's too much!
"Ouch! You damn girl, you're going to kill your father!"
Cheng Yue's action was quite big, and it knocked down Cheng Shun who was not prepared. Cheng Shun cursed in anger.
"Hmph! You damn old man, who told you to use me to pay off your debt? Am I only worth five hundred taels of silver?"
Cheng Yue said.
"Who said I'm using you to pay off a debt? Didn't your mother say you've fallen in love with mountains and rivers? Aren't I just helping you?"
Cheng Shun stood up and said doubtfully.
He really had no intention of paying off a debt. He had loved his silly son for so many years, not to mention the healthy daughter he had raised for so many years.
He just thought that Cheng Yue liked mountains and rivers anyway, and when they became a family, it would be easier to talk to her, and he could just pay her back slowly.
Shanshui generously gave out five hundred taels, which indeed changed Cheng Shun's opinion of him. He felt that it was not impossible for him to be a son-in-law.
"No. Who's getting married? Dad, let me tell you, our family owes 500 taels. From now on, our family must work hard to make money and repay Shanshui the 500 taels as soon as possible. Let's not talk about other things. Don't worry too much. I think Shanshui has a good relationship with my eldest brother. He's not the kind of person who would force us to pay back the debt. The IOU says it's one year old, so we'll settle the bill based on that year."
After hearing what Cheng Shun said, Cheng Yue felt better and walked forward to take the thin Cheng Shun's arm.
"Five hundred taels a year, how do you earn it? By robbing?"
"Pang Ya, let me tell you, just because you can beat Mr. Feng into submission and coerce him, it doesn't mean that other people are so weak. You should stop causing trouble in the future."
"Also, stay with your eldest brother and keep an eye on him! Don't let him cause any trouble, or else, not only will our family lose all our remaining savings, but we'll also be in a boatload of debt."
"You can pay back your debt slowly, but I'm afraid of losing my life, okay?"
"Your elder brother is ignorant, you should be sensible!"
Cheng Shun said earnestly.
"Dad, this isn't my eldest brother's fault. He can't stand seeing our family being bullied, especially my eldest sister-in-law. It's that Feng guy who went so far and stopped my eldest sister-in-law from going home. If beating someone to death doesn't require jail time, I'll definitely beat him to death!"
Cheng Yue said.
"But there has to be a limit to the severity of the offense. Just hit someone. Why smash those valuable things? Our family can't afford to pay for it!"
Cheng Shun also felt that the man surnamed Feng deserved to be beaten. His daughter-in-law had been working in the embroidery shop for so many years and had never encountered such a thing, but this man surnamed Feng happened to do it as soon as he took over.
You deserve a beating!
He felt that Cheng Wen suffered because he was not smart enough. If he had a good brain, he would never touch the jade piece, and his family would not have paid so much silver as compensation.
He did see that Feng Dongjia was later given a good beating by his Fatty.
