Hang Lixing really didn't care. He was also studying in an academy and didn't find it that hard.
But when Hang Gengyuan heard this, his eyes reddened as he said, "No, I can't hold on for even a day! Big Brother, you don't know how despicable Xiao Qi is. He actually teamed up with other students in the academy to isolate me. I... I've been beaten by them three or four times since I entered the academy. Every time, I was bruised and battered. You saw it when I came back last time... And now there are five more martial arts masters in the academy, who beat and scold me at every turn..."
"Second brother, I can agree with you on other things, but our family really can't afford so much money right now, and it's a pity to spend so much money on such things." Hang Lixing refused firmly.
On weekdays, it’s okay to spend 1,800 taels of silver.
But with 100,000 taels, that family can’t even think about living this year.
Even if you want to take out so much cash, you have to sell your property.
"Brother! Don't you love me the most? You want to watch me die! I don't care, I really can't stand it anymore..."
"Enough! Others can go, why can't you? Aren't you comparing yourself with Zhou Jingmao in everything? If you leave now, won't you be left behind by him?" Hang Lixing would never give the money.
Hang Er was extremely depressed.
Zhou Jingmao?
To be honest, he seldom argued with Zhou Jingmao in the past ten days, because his mind was completely on that bastard Xiao Qi!
Compared with Xiao Qi, Zhou Jingmao’s previous arrogance is nothing!
The ancestors of the Hang family were also good, and they had even produced a prime minister who held a very high position in the government. However, their descendants were much inferior. The only glorious one among them was Hang Er's great-grandfather, who passed the imperial examination and won the third place in the imperial examination. His talent was well-known and he even married a princess and became her husband's son-in-law.
By the time of his grandfather's generation, he was doing pretty well and retired with honors as a second-rank official.
When Marquis Yuyong married into the Hang family, Hang's second grandfather was still alive and he was impressed by the Hang family's centuries-old heritage.
Unfortunately, it is not a good thing for this family to last too long. The Hang family is prosperous and has taken root in various places, but its reputation is not very good. Hang's father himself is not very ambitious. He relies on the support of his relatives to keep his official position as a third-rank official. On the surface, he does not bring shame to his ancestors.
But Hangfu's generation does have a harder time than before.
The money had to be used to smooth the flow of debts and to feed back to the clan members, so the amount of money circulating in the family was actually not too much. Therefore, the father and son certainly did not want to spend the 100,000 taels.
But Hang Er just didn't understand.
"I've been beaten, and you don't care? It's just 100,000 taels of silver, just give it to them, brother. Do you want me to die in the academy?" Hang Er was very angry.
Hang Lixing felt a tightness in his chest.
Isn't it just 100,000 taels? Is that human language?
"You... in the final analysis, it was Xiao Qi who bullied you?" Hang Lixing began to find the crux of the matter.
"Xiao Qi, Xiao Qi is a vicious man. I don't know what kind of magic potion he's fed those people. Whenever I have a conflict with him, the teacher and classmates all take his side... I can't do anything even if I want revenge. I even hired someone to teach him a lesson before, but those losers didn't even hurt him and were arrested..."
Hang Lixing's eyes darkened a little.
"The Xiao family is getting more and more arrogant!" Hang Lixing also slammed the table. "Alright, stop being so desperate. A man crying is a joke! Xiao Qi is indeed a cunning and sly person. Let me think of a way..."
"What else can you do? You hired someone to spread rumors about Xiao Sanlang before, but it was useless. It's only been a few days, and no one mentioned the matter anymore. Besides...what impact can it have on Xiao Qi?! It's completely useless!"
