Chapter 222: Trying to Extort Money (2/2)



You have to know that she is the future wife of an official, and there will definitely be many people who will come home to curry favor with the nobles in the future.

She was now able to sit in the carriage out of courtesy. If she had a good eye, she would have been politely invited to the carriage, served her tea and water, and asked about her well-being.

If he wants his son to help him with something in the future, he should please himself in advance now. If nothing else, he should at least give himself the carriage.

But the reality was very different from what she imagined. She was actually kicked off the carriage. How could this be possible?

When she saw the middle-aged man standing aside, a bold idea popped into her mind.

That is, she would pounce on the middle-aged man and then use this as a threat to force them to leave the carriage behind, otherwise they would not be able to leave safely.

In love between men and women, women always suffer. Even if she takes the initiative, so what? No one will believe it.

A woman's reputation is more important than anything else. Even if the middle-aged man says that she took the initiative, as long as she doesn't admit it and refuses to acknowledge it, she still has the final say.

By then, she would probably not only keep the carriage, but also get a lot of money.

Thinking about the box where I kept my money, I used to put a few hundred taels in it, and at least a dozen taels. It was nothing like now, where there was not a single copper coin.

In the past, she would take out the money box every night before going to bed and count the silver coins inside.

Listening to the sound of copper coins and broken silver colliding, she thought it was the most wonderful sound in the world. She fell asleep quickly after lying down and even dreamed that she was lying on the silver, and she laughed out loud with joy.

Sometimes he was too happy and laughed too loudly, which could even wake up Li Gui who was sleeping soundly.

Now there is not a single copper coin in the money box, but before going to bed, she still opens the money box as usual. When she sees that it is empty, she feels so bad that even though she is so sleepy that she keeps yawning, she cannot fall asleep. She cannot fall asleep at all.

It was her destiny to be lucky and meet a rich man. She said, why did the magpie chirp non-stop on the wall of her house in the morning? It must mean good fortune and wealth coming into the house. How could this not be considered a happy occasion?

Of course it was. It was a great joy to finally have an empty purse.

But she had clearly planned it well. Once she got to the middle-aged man, she would ask for compensation for mental damages on the grounds that the middle-aged man wanted to tease her.

Yes, it’s compensation for mental damage. She learned this term from that little bitch Li Mengyue.

She also planned to ask for more money because she was the one who took the initiative, but she hadn't decided how much yet.

Five taels was not enough for her son's monthly expenses, so she decided to give him ten taels. However, she still felt that ten taels was too little. She wanted ten taels more.

Well, no, the twins can be sold for forty taels. As a grandmother, she is taking the initiative to let others take advantage of her, so it should be at least forty taels.

Yes, it’s forty taels. If you don’t give me forty taels of silver, you can leave your carriage behind and never leave Xinghua Village.

She had thought everything through, but reality was different from what she had imagined. Not only could she not get a carriage, she couldn't even get the forty taels of silver she was supposed to receive.

“Woo…”

What kind of love is this! She is such a beautiful woman, and she took the initiative to throw herself into his arms, but instead of comforting herself, she pushed herself out. It's really going downhill, and men are becoming more and more unreliable.
