Grandma Sun's eyes reddened as she roared, "How dare you!"
As Lu Qingyan described the scene, an image flashed into her mind: her precious son being held in the palm of a woman she utterly despised. Just thinking about it made her eyes turn red with anger.
Lu Qingyan scoffed coldly: "What do I have to be afraid of? Anyway, when you kick the bucket, you won't be able to stop me. You'll just be watching helplessly from the underworld. Aunt Sun, we're all neighbors, let's not make things so ugly. If you take a step back, I'll take a step back too. What can't be resolved?"
How could Grandma Sun be willing to lose her daughter-in-law, whom she had just gotten her hands on?
She rolled her eyes and glanced at the people around her: "Fine! Since you, little girl, are unwilling, then this marriage is off. But I've already given your family the betrothal money, so you must give it back to me as soon as possible."
"Don't make things too difficult for me, Aunt Sun. I'm still in school myself, so I can't give you much money." The money left on the card Jin Ye gave her would only be enough to pay back half of Aunt Sun's debt, but Lu Qingyan would never use that money to pay off the debt.
Lu Qingyan thought for a moment and decided to take the little money she had left in the room. If she left money for Sun Fu, he probably wouldn't be able to hold onto it. Anyway, he didn't starve to death by himself.
Grandma Sun said, "Alright, I'll agree to what you said today. You must return this money to me in five years. However, you must return 200,000 yuan to me in five years, not a penny less. Also, in the future, all the villagers here will be from your lineage, so everyone who sees this will get a share. You must give each person one or two thousand yuan."
As Aunt Sun spoke, she glanced back smugly. Lu Qingyan could clearly see a hint of greed in their eyes.
Lu Qingyan looked at Granny Sun with a half-smile: "Our family does owe you money, but we don't owe them any. Why should we give them money? Two thousand each for these dozen or so people adds up to more than thirty thousand. Do you think I'm that easy to talk to?"
The people around were just there to help Granny Sun; getting money would be good, but not getting it wouldn't matter. Hearing Lu Qingyan say this, they felt somewhat guilty and also a little afraid, after all, they had already experienced Lu Qingyan's skills.
“Daping’s mother, why don’t we just let it go?” The timid person spoke up first: “Feng’er is right. Their family doesn’t owe us any money. I’ll just not accept her share.”
Grandma Sun kicked him with a dark face: "You good-for-nothing, you won't even take advantage of others."
"It's not that they don't want it, but they see clearly that if I'm not willing to give it, they can't take it from me." Lu Qingyan looked at Granny Sun and made her final concession: "I can only give you 150,000 at most, that's all. If you don't agree, we can have another round of negotiations?"
Lu Qingyan stretched out her arm and beckoned, making a gesture of invitation.
Aunt Sun knew that Lu Qingyan wanted to take action, and she also knew that she wouldn't gain any advantage this time, so she could only reluctantly agree: "Fine, 150,000 it is, no less."
All things considered, she still made a profit on this deal. The dowry money wouldn't have earned such high interest in a bank, but getting so much return by investing it in this girl from the Sun family is definitely not a loss.
Grandma Sun was satisfied and led the group back.
