Jiang Dali, Jiang Dayong, and Jiang Tietou looked dejected, like defeated roosters, and said listlessly, "Listen, we understand."
Jiang Tietou was filled with remorse.
He really wanted to slap himself twice.
He had hoped to take the opportunity to offset the fifteen taels of silver he owed to the Jiang family, but he didn't expect that not only would he not be able to offset the silver, but he would also lose seven and a half taels of silver and a large piece of mountain land.
Moreover, they were the ones who eagerly offered money and land to Old Jiang's family!
He was absolutely furious.
It's all that old hag's fault. If she hadn't egged him on, he wouldn't have done such a stupid thing!
Thinking of this, Jiang Tietou glared fiercely at Zhang Cuihua, who was not far away.
Hmph, just wait until we get home, and see how he deals with her!
When Zhang Cuihua met Jiang Tietou's terrifying gaze, a chill ran down her spine, and cold sweat broke out on her forehead.
Oh no, oh no, she's going to be beaten to death!
What should I do? I should have known better than to get involved in this mess!
Jiang Dali was filled with regret and wished he could slap himself twice!
Not only did they lose a large piece of mountain land for nothing, they also had to pay Old Jiang's family seven and a half taels of silver.
Why would he make a bet for no reason? Does he think it's better to keep those seven and a half taels of silver for himself?
In the end, it all comes down to my husband. Why did he have to make a bet with Jiang Wanwan's family? It seems that Third Aunt has been eating too much and should be starved a bit.
Jiang Dali gritted his teeth and glared fiercely at Liu San Niang.
Jiang Dayong was heartbroken; that was a full seven and a half taels of silver, not seven coins!
They had painstakingly saved up more than seven taels of silver, and losing it all was equivalent to emptying their savings.
He wanted to back out, but he had said all those words himself, not just Feng Xiuer's. How could he break the contract?
If he dares to break the contract, the village chief might just give him a hard time.
In the end, it all comes down to his spendthrift wife. If it weren't for her, he would never have gambled!
Hmph, let's see how he deals with her tonight!
Then, the three recalled the calm expressions of the Jiang family members and Jiang Wanwan's unusual behavior. They instantly realized they had been tricked; that brat Jiang Wanwan had probably dug a trap for them, just waiting for them to fall in.
Upon realizing this, Jiang Dali, Jiang Dayong, and Jiang Tietou flew into a rage.
The three of them were so angry that they jumped up and down, pointing at Jiang Wanwan and cursing, "You brat, you must have dug a pit for us to fall into! You clearly didn't borrow money from the bank at interest, but you made us all think that your family borrowed money at interest, so my husband made a bet with you."
Jiang Wanwan looked at the three of them in surprise, thinking they were utterly shameless. Their skin was as thick as Liu Sanniang's; they were truly birds of a feather.
“I’ve been saying all along that my family didn’t borrow any money from the money lender, but you just wouldn’t believe me. Aunt Liu and Aunt Feng have been pressuring me to admit that we did borrow money at interest, but I’ve made it clear from beginning to end that we don’t owe any interest. You just won’t believe me, and you’re trying to use this to force my family out of here, take away our land, and kill us!”
Zhang Guilan looked down on Jiang Dali and the other two's behavior, rolled her eyes, and said irritably, "Dali, Dayong, Uncle Tietou, we're all listening. Wan'er has been saying that she didn't borrow money from the bank, but you just don't believe her."
Aunt Li nodded quickly, "That's right, we've all been listening. Where did Wan'er dig a pit for you to fall into? Don't slander her like that!"
“That’s right, we all heard it. Wan’er has been saying that her family didn’t borrow any money from the bank, but Third Sister and Xiu’er just didn’t believe it and kept forcing Wan’er’s family to admit it.”
"You have to accept the consequences of your bet, we're all listening!"
