Chapter 19 Asking for money for my wife's leather shoes

Jiang Tang held the little guy and hid far away. The reason why she said that was because in the book, when the heroine married the hero, the Jiang family made a grand ceremony, which made the hero's parents, who were somewhat dissatisfied with the heroine being a rural girl, look at her with new eyes. After the heroine got married, the hero's parents treated her very well.

She knew that the Jiang family would not fail to provide the heroine with a dowry.

In the courtyard, Wang Qilei and Zhang Hetian received Qin Xiao's instructions. Without saying a word, they rushed straight up to the Jiang family's room.

As soon as the three brothers entered the room, they started to overturn the cupboards, tables and chairs inside.

There was a loud bang, and the cupboard and iron basin hit the ground, making a deafening noise. It was as if bandits had entered the village and the room was completely smashed in the blink of an eye.

He Sufen rolled on the ground and cried, "Oh my God, please open your eyes. How can we ordinary people tolerate the behavior of such a bandit? I worked so hard to give birth to this ungrateful child, but she doesn't like me at all. She robbed her sister's marriage, and only a few days later she instigated her husband to come back and bully my mother."

"I won't live any more, I won't live any more!"

She cried and shouted, but was frightened by Qin Xiao's cruelty and did not dare to stop him.

The crying was mournful, just like the shouting of someone being buried beside a coffin, with loud thunder but little rain.

Now no one paid attention to her screaming. The room was in chaos and the floor was a mess. People watching the excitement couldn't help but shrink their necks, and their shoulders trembled with the crisp and sharp collision sounds.

Qin Xiao kicked the stool in front of him away, strode out of the room, and saw that he was about to go home.

Jiang Yongzong shouted, "Qin Xiao, stop it!"

Qin Xiao tilted his head to glance at him, sneered, and didn't take his words to heart.

Jiang Yongzong saw that Qin Xiao ignored him and felt that his face was completely destroyed by a young man.

His house was smashed to pieces, but the other party showed no intention of stopping. What was even more shameless was that he had no intention of talking to him about it and was extremely stubborn.

Jiang Yongzong could only suppress the hatred in his heart and put on a compromising look.

"Qin Xiao! We can discuss the gift."

After hearing these words, Qin Xiao finally looked at him straight in the face, turned around and sat back on the stone bench.

Seeing that he was about to stop, Jiang Yongzong breathed a sigh of relief, but before he could speak.

Qin Xiao rapped his knuckles on his knees, raised his chin towards the room towards Wang Qilei and Zhang Hetian, and said coldly, "Keep smashing."

Everyone thought that this meant they wanted to have a good talk, but they didn't expect Qin Xiao to be so ruthless. They all stared at Qin Xiao in suspicion. At this moment, everyone was afraid of him.

Without saying a word, Wang Qilei and his companion rushed into the house and smashed everything upside down. The noise of the bangs and crashes made people feel heartbroken for the items inside.

With the background sound of smashing and destroying things, Qin Xiao stared at Jiang Yongzong and said, "Uncle Jiang, what do you plan to discuss?"

Jiang Yongzong had never seen such bandit-like people before, so he could only endure it and held his breath, "You make them stop first!"

The loud crash beside his ear hit his heart, and he was worried about his own things.

Qin Xiao pretended not to hear anything and sat there casually, with no intention of stopping it.

Jiang Tang, who was hiding far away, was fascinated by her calm and relaxed look. She recalled the times when He Sufen and Jiang Hu had been looking for trouble with her in the past.

His eyes moved, and he felt very happy when he saw He Sufen who was now lying on the ground and rolling around, and Jiang Hu who was scared by Qin Xiao.

Jiang Yongzong understood that Qin Xiao was a hard-hearted person and not someone he could discuss things with. Either give him a satisfactory answer or watch him destroy the entire house and no one could stop him.

He was completely suppressed by a wolf cub and lost face in front of the whole village, but he couldn't do anything to get rid of him.

"Stop it right now and I'll take the money."

As soon as these words came out, He Sufen, who was rolling on the ground, became unhappy. She staggered to her feet and threw herself next to him, saying in a harsh voice, "No, master, how can you marry off your daughter and still have to pay back the betrothal gift? It never makes sense!"

"Where can we get so much money? Hu Zi has to get married, and Cuicui has to get married, too. They both need money. How can we live like this?"

Jiang Hu, who had a pig-like face, also came up to him and said, "Dad, I want to get married."

Jiang Yongzong thought for a moment, and then discussed with Qin Xiao in a gentle voice, "Qin Xiao, you see, my family is really in trouble right now, and I can't come up with so much money all at once. Can you understand that I will pay you back part of it first, and then slowly pay you back when I have money in the future."

It's impossible to confront Qin Xiao head-on. This scoundrel won't appreciate any help at all. We can only delay it for a while.

Qin Xiao raised his voice and shouted at the two people who were smashing things in the house, "Leizi, stop it first."

Wang Qilei and his companion immediately stopped and walked to his side.

Qin Xiao said in a calm voice, "Uncle Jiang, my wife advised me yesterday to have a good discussion with you. She is your daughter, and I listened to her. I had planned to come and have a good discussion with you this morning, and I didn't want to make a big deal out of it."

Qin Xiao's words made everyone inside and outside look at Jiang Tang who was hiding far away. They were somewhat suspicious. They really didn't expect that Qin Xiao's wife was such a sensible person. But they felt a little strange. Why did Qin Xiao still want to make such a fuss now?

Shouldn’t you listen to his wife and discuss this properly?

As the center of attention, Jiang Tang was completely bewildered. How could she dare to persuade the fierce Qin Xiao to have a good talk with the Jiang family?

She had a hard time protecting herself, and she didn't dare to say anything about what Qin Xiao wanted to do.

She was terrified, but she still had a faint smile on her face. She agreed with the other person and said in a coquettish tone, "Qin Xiao is right. We were planning to come to my house this morning to discuss it properly."

Her eyes met Qin Xiao's ambiguous black eyes, she blinked quickly, and the smile on her face became more obvious.

Boss, I think it's okay for me to cooperate with you like this.

Jiang Yongzong was stunned for a moment, then smiled awkwardly, "Tangtang is thoughtful."

He then changed the subject, "But you came here to beat and smash things, you don't look like you are in a good mood to discuss things."

Although he tried his best to endure it, his tone was still tainted with resentment and complaint.

Qin Xiao sighed, his dark eyes staring at the mother and son who were fighting next to him. "This morning, Aunt He brought Jiang Hu to my house and made a lot of noise, throwing tantrums and swearing. Everyone knew about it, and then I realized that this matter might not be negotiable, so I resorted to this desperate measure."

Early this morning, He Sufen brought Jiang Hu to the Qin family to cause trouble. Indeed, everyone knew that Qin Xiao had gone to the Jiang family and smashed the house to pieces without saying a word. Everyone was inevitably a little biased and thought he had gone too far.

Now that I think about it, it was the Jiang family who started the trouble first, and they did take the betrothal gift but didn't give a dowry, so it was understandable that Qin Xiao got angry.

For a moment, there was no sympathy for the Jiang family at all, and they even looked down on them with spit and contempt.

After Qin Xiao finished speaking, he turned to look at Jiang Tang, who was blinking her big eyes at his performance, and said in a low, apologetic voice, "Wife, I was too impulsive. You won't blame me, will you?"

Jiang Tang looked at the big-tailed wolf in amazement, his watery black eyes widened, and he couldn't help but want to give him a thumbs up.

The way this man looked last night definitely didn't look like he was going to have a serious discussion with the Jiang family!

It was just that the Jiang family had gone to the house to cause trouble this morning, which gave Qin Xiao an excuse and he was right in both cases.

He also wanted to distance himself from her and distance himself from the incident, so that she would not be condemned as unfilial.

Jiang Tang's eyes were full of stars, and he looked at Qin Xiao with a smile, and then he glanced at He Sufen and her son in a pretentious manner, and said weakly, "I don't blame you, you were forced to do it."

The character of being considerate yet vulnerable is portrayed vividly.

The little girl stared at Jiang's mother, who was angry but dared not say anything, and a smile appeared in Qin Xiao's eyes.

The couple's back and forth seemed quite reasonable, and the Jiang family ended up suffering all the losses.

Upon hearing this, Jiang Yongzong glared coldly at He Sufen, who was standing next to him. She was a woman who was more likely to cause trouble than to accomplish anything. She had really embarrassed him.

He Sufen glared at Jiang Tang with resentment. When Jiang Yongzong glared at her, she shrank back and dared not say anything.

Jiang Yongzong was still able to force a smile at Qin Xiao, "It was your Aunt He who did something inappropriate, but it was because Hu Zi was put in a sack that she lost her mind and did the wrong thing. Please forgive her."

Now that the Jiang family has suffered a loss, they can only swallow the bitter pill.

"My family can afford two hundred yuan right now, so I'll go get it and give it to you. I'll pay you back the rest when I have money later."

After beating and smashing things, Qin Xiao was no longer as violent and unreasonable as before. He seemed to be willing to negotiate everything. "Uncle Jiang, give me 500 today. Write me an IOU for the rest and we'll talk about it later."

Five hundred! He Sufen's eyes turned red. How could she come up with so much money?

Her heart was bleeding, and her tiny heart was in so much pain that she was unwilling to give him even the two hundred yuan his husband had just mentioned, let alone five hundred.

Jiang Yongzong was also unwilling, but what could he do? Qin Xiao could talk to him now, but could turn his family upside down the next moment. He had seen it before and didn't dare to touch his mold again.

He glared at He Sufen beside him and said, "Go get it quickly, gather it up and give it to him!"

He glanced at his son who was sitting next to him, and shouted angrily, "Go get me some paper and pen."

Since he, the head of the family, spoke, the mother and son had no choice but to follow his orders no matter how reluctant they were.

I entered the house, saw the mess, and stepped on the debris on the floor to get something.

Jiang Hu grabbed a piece of paper and a pen from the messy and broken table on the ground, took it out reluctantly, and handed it to his father.

Qin Xiao watched as Father Jiang wrote the IOU and signed it, then signed it after making sure it was correct.

He Sufen came out of the house reluctantly, holding a huge, old ball in her hand, and handed it to Qin Xiao with heartache.

"That's all the money we have at home."

Giving away this little money is like taking away her life.

Qin Xiao had a blank expression on his face. After taking it, he counted it on the spot with a cold face.

Seeing his genuine expression, He Sufen was angry but dared not say anything.

Qin Xiao finished counting quickly, his eyes were full of mystery, "Four hundred and one and forty cents, less than five hundred."

"That's all the money we have at home! You've destroyed our home, what else do you want?"

Qin Xiao raised his eyebrows, but did not continue to ask her to take the money, "Okay."

"But there is more."

He Sufen was anxious, "What else can I have? I have emptied my family's savings and written the IOU. I have nothing left to ask for."

Qin Xiao ignored him, and looked at Jiang Tang with his dark eyes, saying calmly, "My wife's little leather shoes and two sets of skirts must be returned."

"When Cuicui comes back, I will let her return it to her!" He Sufen shouted loudly.

Now I just want to drive away this evil spirit Qin Xiao.

Jiang Tang didn't expect that Qin Xiao still remembered to take her things back, and she felt warm in her heart.

In fact, it would be fine if Qin Xiao wasn't mean to her.

She glanced at He Sufen, her lips raised high.

Humph, she still remembered this man’s previous expression, and he righteously asked her to give the things to Jiang Cui!

Now that Qin Xiao is here, I don’t dare to do that.

Bully the weak and fear the strong!

Qin Xiao just looked at Jiang Tang, "Do you want the skirt or do you want them to pay for it?"

Jiang Tang was in a good mood and looked at Qin Xiao with a smile, "If it was taken away, she must have worn it before. I don't want it, so I'll just sell it to her as a second-hand item."

She lowered her eyes and calculated carefully, "The little leather shoes are 88 yuan, and the two skirts are 60 yuan. If they are second-hand goods, they are cheaper, just give me 100 yuan."

"100! You little bitch, are you trying to steal my money? I don't have any!" He Sufen's chest heaved violently, and she was obviously very angry.

Jiang Tang felt somewhat innocent, "I really calculated it very cheaply. I only asked for a hundred yuan out of consideration for you, since you just gave Qin Xiao four hundred yuan."

"I brought all the clothes from the capital. I originally planned to take them to the city to sell them for some money, but I didn't expect you to lock them up..." at home.

"Go give it to her!" Before she could finish her words, Jiang Yongzong, who was too concerned about his reputation, yelled at He Sufen.

Hu Sufen returned to the room feeling aggrieved, and groped out another hundred yuan to give to Jiang Tang.

Jiang Tang was so happy that he couldn't even see his teeth as he counted the small change in his hand.

Qin Xiao saw her count the money and put it in her pocket carefully, then he stood up and said to Jiang Yongzong, "Since the matter has been resolved, Uncle Jiang, our family of three will leave first."

Jiang Yongzong's eyes hurt so much that he didn't even want to pretend, so he hunched over and turned his back.

Having achieved his goal, Qin Xiao didn't care about his attitude. He walked up to Jiang Tang, bent down to pick up her package, and said in a magnetic and hoarse voice, "Let's go home."

Jiang Tang's heart suddenly trembled, and he responded obediently, "Okay."

Afterwards, he picked up Qin Chuyang and left with Qin Xiao.
