The villagers silently made way for Jiang Dali and Jiang Dayong to step forward.
Jiang Wanwan blinked her big eyes and stared straight at the two men. "Uncle Dali, Uncle Dayong, are you going to bet? If not, we're leaving."
The village chief and Zhang Guilan looked at Jiang Wanwan with some concern, wanting to stop her and tell her not to make such a bet.
If it's really just interest owed, as long as it's not a huge amount, it should be able to be paid off by piecing together the money, and it shouldn't warrant being kicked out of the village.
But judging from Jiang Wanwan's posture, not even ten oxen could pull her back.
Jiang Dali and Jiang Dayong exchanged a glance, both seeing the same answer in each other's eyes.
"Let's bet!" they both said in unison.
Jiang Dayong crossed his arms, raised an eyebrow, and said, "If our two families lose, each of us will give you seven and a half taels of silver, and we'll also give you the entire piece of mountain land at the foot of the mountain that belongs to our two families."
“But if you really borrow money at interest, your Jiang family will pack up and leave Dashui Village, and your family’s land will be divided between our two families,” Jiang Dali said confidently.
The two of them had just gone to the village entrance to see that group of people. They were all as big as small mountains, with fierce expressions on their faces, and they were carrying weapons.
Tell me, besides the people working at the money exchange, who else has such a physique?
That's not the most important thing. The important thing is that they recognized one of the group—Xiao Hei!
Xiao Hei was a minor leader in the money exchange; they knew him!
What's the underling of the money exchange doing here? He's here to collect his money, of course.
Therefore, they were absolutely certain that the Jiang family had borrowed money from the money exchange at interest.
Jiang Wanwan was secretly delighted; Jiang Dali and Jiang Dayong had finally fallen for her trap.
She raised an eyebrow slightly, a faint smile playing on her lips. "Village chief, and fellow villagers, please bear witness for us."
Seeing how confident Jiang Dali and Jiang Dayong were, Zhang Cuihua also started to have her own ideas.
We can't let Jiang Dali and the other guy get all the benefits; we have to get a share too.
While Jiang Wanwan and the other two were still talking, she quietly moved closer to her husband, Jiang Tietou, and whispered a few words. The couple smiled at each other, and Jiang Tietou quickly spoke up.
"Wait a minute, my Cuihua and Zhuzhu also made slanderous remarks about your family, so our family must also join the bet."
Jiang Wanwan's eyes flickered slightly, and a faint smile appeared on her lips.
Unexpectedly, one day, I actually encountered a fat sheep who would come up to me and let me fleece them.
Wow, I've never seen anything like this before!
The Jiang family looked at Jiang Tietou and Zhang Cuihua as if they were idiots.
However, Jiang Tietou and Zhang Cuihua's family misunderstood the look in the eyes of the Jiang family members, thinking that the Jiang family members were feeling guilty.
This further solidified my resolve to join the bet.
Naturally, Jiang Tietou faced strong opposition from his cousins, Jiang Dali and Jiang Dayong.
Jiang Wanwan definitely couldn't let the little lamb who had fallen into the trap escape.
She added fuel to the fire with a few more words, which provoked Jiang Tietou to the point of being extremely agitated. No matter how much he pleaded, Jiang Dali and Jiang Dayong refused to let him join the bet and share the Jiang family's land.
He rolled his eyes, changed his strategy, and stopped insisting on dividing the land. "My family also has a piece of land at the foot of the mountain, which happens to be adjacent to Dali and Dayong's houses. If I lose, I will not only give this piece of land to your family, but also pay you seven and a half taels of silver. But if you really borrowed money with interest, then the fifteen taels of silver that my family owes your family will be completely offset, and you won't have to repay it. How about that?"
