That old hag is really shameless.
"According to Mother, I should be grateful to you?"
Zhou remained silent, her eyes filled with resentment, and suddenly pointed at the account book in Jiang Mingwei's hand.
"Give me the account books and promise not to pursue the dowry any further, and I will forgive your rudeness today. Otherwise, this matter is not over!"
