An Wanwan and the others were chatting when they heard Jiang Xiaoyu shouting from outside.
An Miaomiao opened the door: "Xiaoyu, you're here. You've come at the right time. My sister and I prepared a wedding gift for you. My third brother just brought it back. Come on, let me show you."
An Wanwan and the others commissioned a pair of silver earrings and a silver hairpin for Jiang Xiaoyu, and also commissioned a silver hairpin for Jiang Dazhuang.
The three items together cost a little over one tael of silver.
In An Wanwan's and others' eyes, it wasn't much.
Jiang Xiaoyu felt it was too much, and she quickly waved her hand, "This, I can't accept this..."
"You've helped us a lot, and you're our friend, so how can we not accept your help?"
An Wanwan handed it to her without saying a word.
Jiang Xiaoyu refused several times, but couldn't refuse, so she had to accept it: "You guys are making me not know what to say."
Her eyes were glistening with tears.
An Miaomiao asked, "Why are you crying? Did Li Dazhuang bully you?"
Jiang Xiaoyu's face visibly turned red.
She whispered, "Dazhuang didn't bully me. He's been very good to me. The reason I'm like this is because I'm touched by you all. With friends like you, my life is worth living."
"I'm glad you like it."
An Wanwan and the others laughed.
Thinking about the purpose of my visit.
Jiang Xiaoyu said it aloud.
An Wanwan frowned after hearing this.
An Miaomiao exclaimed, "I told you there was a problem before! See, now the problem has surfaced. Li Daqiang and the others didn't enlist, and your family doesn't have that much money. Did you borrow money from someone and run away...?"
"Borrow money, then run away..."
Jiang Xiaoyu's face turned pale instantly. If that were the case, and the creditors came knocking on her door, wouldn't she have to pay back the money?
Anke exclaimed, "That's definitely it! They borrowed the money and ran away, thinking you'd pay it back for them. If that's the case, the creditors will probably be coming to our door soon. I've heard those debt collectors are really fierce; they often break the legs of people who don't pay back their loans..."
Jiang Xiaoyu's face was even paler than before, and her lips had lost all color.
An Wanwan slapped her third brother.
“Xiaoyu, don’t listen to my third brother’s nonsense. This money wasn’t borrowed by Dazhuang. Even if they come knocking on our door, they won’t dare to go too far. If they really dare to go too far, then sue them. But if they outnumber you, don’t confront them head-on. Just stall them for now, and come back to us to discuss things after they leave…”
"Okay, I've got it. I won't say any more. I'll head back now."
Jiang Xiaoyu walked home uneasy.
I'm home.
Jiang Xiaoyu heard from Li Dazhuang that his mother still wouldn't say anything.
She hardened her heart, grabbed a chipped kitchen knife, and walked out.
Li Dazhuang was startled: "Xiaoyu, what are you doing?"
Jiang Xiaoyu told Li Dazhuang about her plan: she intended to use a kitchen knife to scare Cui Shi and force her to tell her what was going on.
"This, this won't do. If the villagers find out, they'll gossip about you. What if your mother goes to the authorities to sue you..."
Li Dazhuang dared not think about it, and he couldn't continue speaking.
Jiang Xiaoyu told him the results of An Wanwan and the others' analysis.
Li Dazhuang's face paled, but he quickly regained his composure: "Didn't Wanwan and the others say that I didn't borrow the money? It shouldn't be a big deal if things get heated. Okay, okay, don't go. I'd rather get into trouble myself than have you get into trouble..."
The next day.
Not long after An Wanwan and her group set up their stall in town, Wang Zhengqiu came into their view.
Upon seeing him, Anke gave him a cold look: "What are you doing here?"
