Chapter 72 Xichun and Bai Qinglan? ?
They were all angry, especially Ge Tao. When he thought that the pretty boy in front of him was the culprit who prevented him from marrying Miss Luo, he was very determined to take action.
How could Bai Qinglan, a weak scholar and prostitute, defeat Ge Tao, who had been hanging around in the streets since childhood? She could only scream while desperately protecting her face, and her white brocade dress was covered with shoe prints.
Hearing Xichun's voice was like seeing a savior, and he shouted, "Hurry up and tell your brother and your mother that I don't owe you any money!"
Xichun didn't expect that a fight had already broken out, so she quickly stopped them: "Stop fighting, stop fighting, it's all a misunderstanding!"
The door of the Bai family was blocked by a few people who were busy with their affairs. Everyone was enjoying the gossip. Chen Zhi was completely confused: "Xichun and Bai Qinglan? How could they be related?"
"Mom, who asked you to come here?" Xichun suppressed her anger and asked with a sullen face.
"Who asked me to come? I came here by myself. If no one told me, how long would you have kept it a secret from me?" Mother Ge was not happy to see her daughter: "You are a traitor. Did I send you to work in the Duke's Mansion so that you could save money to support a gigolo?"
"Don't you know that your brother's marriage is at a critical juncture? So much money..." Mother Ge looked at the broken utensils in the yard, her hands trembling with pain, as if she saw the money flowing away from her hands: "If you had sent so much money back home, you would have saved enough for the bride price! You spent it all on a stranger, I will beat you to death for being so useless!!"
Xichun dodged Ge's mother's fist while defending herself: "No, no! They don't owe me any money, mother!"
"Don't lie to me. Isn't this pretty boy your lover? If it weren't for you, how could he have the money to go to school and live a good life?" Ge's mother said, "I have already found out everything. You have been here more than once, right? You also made an appointment to meet in Furong Building, and people saw you!"
Xichun: “…”
Xichun had no idea where her unreasonable mother got the news from. It was half true and half false. Of course, she didn't dare to tell the truth directly, and could only explain in a roundabout way: "He is not my lover. I introduced the business to Mr. Bai, and he wants to pay me! There was just a little tug of war over the reward before! It's not like what you said, he doesn't owe me money!"
"What business? What reward?" Ge's mother was relentless, and could tell at a glance that her daughter was lying: "What connections do you have to introduce business? What kind of business can a poor young man with nothing but his face do?"
"You just want to protect this lover, don't you?"
Mother Ge really couldn't understand what a young man and woman could do by switching places. What made her even more angry was: "Didn't I tell you a long time ago not to marry a poor man? What are your conditions? You still keep a man outside. You have no shame? Huh? "
Being scolded by her mother in front of so many people, Xichun couldn't hold back her face: "You...you..."
Mother Ge was also stubborn. When her daughter hesitated for a long time and couldn't explain, she felt that this Bai had wasted her daughter's betrothal gift. She became even more furious: "Give me back the money. Give me one thousand taels!"
Bai Qinglan is desperate: “…” Who can come and control this crazy woman? Why does she act like she’s risking her life when she hears about money?
"I'm going to report to the police!" After smashing the Bai family's yard enough, Ge's mother finally thought of a proper way to get money. She just rushed into Bai Qinglan's room and searched around. In addition to smashing the house, she also took out a locked box. After smashing it, she found a lot of bills and correspondence inside.
Although Mother Ge was illiterate, she took it out and showed it to her son who had captured Bai Qinglan. She knew what the transaction record was, and said proudly, "I have found evidence. With this thousand taels, you, Bai, don't even think about escaping!"
Upon hearing that they were going to report to the police, the enthusiastic people around immediately responded positively, saying that they had already gone to find the officials and asked the mother and son of the Ge family to catch the pretty boy who owed money and refused to pay it back.
When the matter had reached the point where they had to report it to the police, Xichun turned pale. She grabbed Ge's mother's hand and shouted, "Don't report it to the police, mother, don't report it to the police!!"
If we report this to the authorities and Chen Zhi hears about it, won’t that be the end of it?
"It is only natural to pay back debts. Don't be afraid, girl. I will definitely get your money back!"
Xichun was really going crazy. The time she and Bai Qinglan agreed to get the money was this morning. Who could tell her how her mother got the news and arrived before her? !
In the crowd, Chen Zhi was stunned: "What deal?"
Although Xichun and Bai Qinglan didn't talk much, her protective attitude and the familiar interactions between the two of them all indicated that they had known each other for a long time, and many people had even seen the two meet in private!
What is there for Xichun and Bai Qinglan to see? What other connections do they have besides themselves?
There is also a deal, what deal? What deal did they make? ?
What are they hiding from me?
Of course, the deal between Xichun and Bai Qinglan couldn't be made public, so they couldn't explain it clearly in front of everyone. Finally, Bai Qinglan gritted her teeth and said, "Don't report to the police. I'll pay you back!"
It is better to pay back debts than to be dragged to the government and find out more. He has saved up some money these days. He will use it to deal with this crazy woman first and settle the score with Xichun later!
Bai Qinglan said: "I'll pay you back, don't report it to the police."
Mother Ge then raised her eyes smugly: "Are you scared now? It's too late. How much money do you owe our girl? I want you to pay it back double, otherwise you will see me in court!"
This kid's room is filled with the best things, and if she doesn't ask for more, it would be a shame for the hair she has lost in the past two days.
Mother Ge snorted coldly: "Give me two thousand taels of silver today, don't think about less."
Bai Qinglan: "Don't go too far!"
If he didn't want to make things worse, would he be afraid of this crazy woman?
"Who the hell are you glaring at?" Ge Tao stood up in front of Ge's mother, looking down on the weak pretty boy with his nose: "It's only natural to pay back debts! Who knows how long you've been borrowing money, it's not too much to ask for some interest, right?"
Two thousand silver coins. Even if Mr. Jia and the eldest daughter of the Duke's Mansion came together, Bai Qinglan still hasn't saved that much. If Ge's mother asks him for it, where can he get it?
Bai Qinglan could only glare at Xichun fiercely: "You know very well how much money I have on me. If I can't pay, I can't pay. Even if you report me to the government, I still can't pay!"
"You're still insisting on it, right?" Ge Tao raised his fist as big as a sandbag and was about to hit someone.
Chen Zhi finally couldn't help it and shouted, "Wait!"
What on earth is going on!
