If it weren't for the kind people in the village who gave him alms one by one, he would have starved to death countless times!
How could such an owner have money to lend to the mother of the original owner?
It’s obvious that they are here to blackmail!
Lin Xiao was too lazy to deal with a scoundrel like Wang Le.
She said impatiently: "Get out of here quickly, or I will go to the government to sue you for blackmail!"
In the Great Xia Dynasty, once the crime of blackmail was established, you would be punished!
Even a strong person couldn't bear the twenty-big board, let alone Wang Le who couldn't eat enough for three meals.
Maybe my life will be decided on this!
"As the saying goes, the debts of the father are repaid by the son. Why, you are a well-educated scholar and you still want to default on your debts?"
How could Wang Le, who wanted to make money from Lin Xiao, be dismissed with just one or two words?
He peeked outside the door and found that the village women returning from washing clothes and vegetables by the river happened to pass by the door of Lin Xiao's house.
The time is ripe.
The play has begun!
He shouted at the top of his lungs:
"Ladies and gentlemen, if you come here to comment, if you don't pay back the money you owe, is there any law?"
When the village women heard Wang Le's scream, they gathered at the gate of Lin Xiao's house.
As more people met, Wang Le performed harder.
"Aunts, please judge me. Aunt Lin asked me to borrow thirty copper coins last year, but Lin Xiao refused to acknowledge her debt..."
He sat on the ground, like an unreasonable village woman, shouting and slapping the ground, causing all the dust and foam on the ground to be kicked up.
The gossipy village women all showed weird smiles when they heard Wang Le's words.
"Aunt Lin borrowed thirty copper coins from Wang Le? Why does it sound so unlikely to me?"
"It's impossible! How could Aunt Lin borrow money from Wang Le? Let me see, it's very possible to lend money to Wang Le!"
"I trust anyone Aunt Lin borrows money from, but she borrows money from Wang Le? Tsk, tsk, tsk, I don't believe it!"
"Since I didn't borrow it, why did Wang Le come here to ask for money?"
"It's not like Xiao Linzi runs to town every day these days and gives us maltose to eat. He gets greedy when he finds out!"
"It's not Wang Le's fault. Anyone who makes Xiao Linzi a little rich will be so blind. Now it's better. He's been targeted, right?"
"His aunt, you can't say that. I think you enjoy eating maltose more than anyone else. Why do you turn around and complain about Xiao Linzi's showing off?"
"That is to say, it is clearly Wang Le, a bad guy, who is blackmailing Xiao Linzi. What does Xiao Linzi have to do with it?"
"Xiao Linzi is in dire straits now. Wang Le is a schistosomiasis. Once it gets stuck on him, he will be skinned even if he doesn't die!"
The village women were talking while watching the excitement. Some of them were recalling the maltose they had eaten two days ago and said a few good words to Lin Xiao.
"It is natural to pay back debts! You have read books for so many years and you don't understand this principle? Have you read all the books into the dog's belly?"
Wang Le got up from the ground and pointed at Lin Xiao with splitting eyes.
With such a confident look, if an unsuspecting person saw it, they would really think that Lin Xiao owed him money!
If the original owner faced Wang Le's unreasonable blackmail, he might give him money to settle the matter.
But Lin Xiao standing in front of everyone now is not the coward who was submissive and afraid of everything before.
She is a social lady who has been struggling in society since she was a child to make a living.
A scoundrel like Wang Le is just a child in front of Lin Xiao and is not worth mentioning!
"Okay, you can ask for money, but..."
Seeing the joyful expression on Wang Le's face, Lin Xiao immediately changed the subject and said coldly: "Pay me back the money you owe me first."
"Since when do I owe you money?"
Wang Le looked confused.
"On the first month of the year when I was eight years old, you stopped me at the east end of the village and asked me to borrow three copper coins. On the Dragon Boat Festival when I was nine years old, at the east end of the village, you asked me to borrow five copper coins.
Mid-Autumn Festival..."
Li Yuyan was filled with anger as she listened to Lin Xiao's accusation of what Wang Le had done to her.
The fists of both hands clenched unconsciously, wishing that I could rush up and punch this guy hard now.
But his reason told him that he must endure it.
"Wang Le, there are a total of forty-six copper coins. How do you think I can give it?"
"I'll give you a big-headed ghost! There is no proof. You said you borrowed it and you really borrowed it?"
"Isn't that right? You said that my mother borrowed thirty copper coins from you. Where is the IOU?"
"I...I...your mother was in a hurry to borrow the money, so I didn't ask her to write an IOU."
"Yes, you were in such a hurry to borrow money back then that I didn't even have time to ask you to write an IOU."
"you you……"
Wang Le was choked and unable to refute.
The village women standing at the door watching the excitement burst into laughter when they saw the deflated Wang Le.
"In a word, either you pay me back and I will pay you back, or I will suffer a loss and neither of us owes anything to the other."
Lin Xiao crossed his arms and stared at Wang Le coldly.
"Sissy, you are determined to keep me here and cheat, aren't you?"
Wang Le knew that he could not defeat Lin Xiao with his stupid words, so he simply stopped pretending and showed his cards:
"I'm telling you, you have to give me these thirty copper coins today, whether you want to or not!"
"Hey, if blackmail doesn't work, why should we rob it instead?"
Lin Xiao glanced disdainfully at the furious Wang Le.
I think she worked at a Taekwondo gym during the summer vacation to earn living expenses and tuition fees.
The curator liked her hard-working little girl very much, so he taught her some self-defense skills.
I don't dare to say how superior the strength is, but it is more than enough to deal with rogues like Wang Le.
"Yes, I took it obviously, what can you do to me!"
Wang Le rolled up his sleeves and looked ferocious. Just when he was about to punch Lin Xiao, Li Yuyan rushed to Lin Xiao and directly grabbed Wang Le's fist.
The big meat noodles and salt these two days were not for nothing. When Li Yuyan exerted force, Wang Le screamed in pain.
"Let go! Let go! Let go! It hurts me to death!"
Li Yuyan flicked Wang Le's slender wrist, and Wang Le was thrown away and fell heavily to the ground. The pain was so painful that he almost shed tears.
"I'm warning you, you are not allowed to bully my boss again, otherwise you will be beaten every time you see me!"
Li Yuyan walked over, looked at Wang Le condescendingly, and warned in a cold tone.
There was a sudden silence outside the small courtyard, and then everyone began to whisper.
A woman actually beat a seven-foot tall man to the point where he was helpless. If word spread about this, wouldn't she be laughed at?
Besides, how can there be any saying in the world that a woman hits a man?
At least in the Daxia Dynasty, it was almost impossible to happen!
Who taught them that "men are heaven and the backbone" since they were young?
This concept has always been deeply rooted in my bones.
Wang Le, who finally regained his composure, looked at Li Yuyan in disbelief:
"Your boss doesn't dare to attack me, how dare you hit me?"
Over the years, when Lin Xiao saw Wang Le, he was like a mouse seeing a cat. He would hide if he could, and he would hide with his tail between his legs if he couldn't. Only Wang Le followed his lead.
But now he was beaten by Lin Xiao's newly married daughter-in-law. How could he swallow this tone?!
After the last episode, he took a nap and told the elders at home about the incident. The elders quickly asked him to take incense, candles and ingots to pay homage to his ancestors and repent.
He carried his heavy body and went there. After the worship and repentance, he miraculously recovered his health. You can’t believe it!
