Chapter 38 Blackmail

Old Man Li looked at his eldest daughter-in-law, whose face was full of tears and had become very haggard in an instant. He felt guilty, angry and disappointed. At this point, what else could he do besides paying for the money and bringing the person in? Not to mention that the person was gone.

With the Li family's flesh and blood, he now has no shortage of grandchildren. He cruelly gave up a grandson and refused to bring him into the family. He only lost money and was afraid of endless troubles! The only blame is that the eldest son is confused, and the eldest daughter-in-law used to be

He looks shrewd, but he can't even tie down a man, hey!

"This family really can't afford so much silver. See if you can give it a few days, and I'll chip in first! Old lady, go get the two hundred taels of silver first!" Old Man Li knew that he could come to the house.

You are making trouble because you have made up your mind to get money. There is no point in interceding. After all, we still have the land and this house at home. I think these people must be aware of it. Now I only have more than two hundred taels of silver in my family.

Although there is some money, it is reserved for future emergencies and cannot be used as a last resort. Hey, I am getting old, and I still have endless worries about my children! That unsatisfactory beast.

"Dad, you gave all the money to others, and we are going to drink the northwest wind. This money belongs to the public, and it does not belong to the eldest brother alone. If you ask me, since he can do such a thing, let him live or die!"

Little Feng was dissatisfied, and Feng on the other side was a little hesitant. After taking out the money, the family would not have much money left. Next year would be the triennial provincial examination. Where could she get money for her old son to take the exam?

It’s not that I don’t want to save my son, I just think that it’s just a wife. Even if the son wants to pay back, he doesn’t need that much. Marrying a yellow-flowered girl only requires a gift of one or twenty taels at most!

"Old man, look at it, is it too much? A beautiful girl here can only cost you more than a dozen taels?" Feng stood beside Old Man Li and murmured in a low voice.

"Shut up, I'm not dead yet, and the money from this father-in-law is not yours! Old lady, what are you doing standing around stupidly? Go quickly!" Old Man Li glared at little Feng and slapped the table in front of him hard, scaring the little one.

Ms. Feng immediately shut up. It was clear that they were here to blackmail, and with a group of vicious people, could they bargain for a lower price?

Mrs. Feng saw that Old Li's face was getting darker and darker, so she had no choice but to get the silver honestly. After a while, she took out three fifty-tael silver notes and fifty-tael silver ingots.

"Here, we only have so much cash at home. You can take it first, and we will gather it together in the remaining days. Do you think we should let my son out first?" Old Man Li laughed stiffly and accompanied him.

Be careful.

"You are still sensible, so let's give it an extra five days. Your elder brother is now wearing red sleeves and is very beautiful. I'm afraid he won't be willing to come home for a while. In five days, you will hand over money with one hand and hand over to people with the other.

Now I can have another good grandchild! Brothers, let’s go!” Qiu Da took the money and left with a group of people. Before leaving, the short man kicked a chair away as a demonstration.

"Monkey, we are gentlemen, don't mess around!" Qiu laughed.

"Dad, how could you let him bring a bitch in? Wuwuwu,,, no, my husband-in-law will not betray me, no, no," Yang fell softly.

He was muttering to himself on the ground, and seemed to be in a daze for a moment.

After hearing the news, Zizhen and Yuezhen hid behind the bamboo curtain leading to the backyard to take a peek. Seeing that everyone was gone, Zizhen rushed out to help Yang, and Liu on the side also helped.

Then he held Yang's other arm.

"Mom, are you okay? Don't scare me!" Zizhen burst into tears, feeling extremely distressed. To this day, she still can't believe that her father could do such a stupid thing. It's in vain for her to give up.

I have always wanted to find a husband-in-law who is as stalwart as my father. From then on, she will take care of her husband and raise her children like a mother, take care of the housework, support her husband-in-law in studying and take exams, and wait to become an official wife. Now that I think about it, it seems like a joke! She has always been among her sisters.

In front of me, I am proud of having a father who may become an official in the future. Now, I am afraid that my sisters are secretly laughing at my family!

"Boss, wife, you have been wronged. There is nothing I can do about it! That woman already has the flesh and blood of Da Lang, so it is hard to let her live outside. Besides, if you don't get people into the house, the boss will win the election in the future.

Being an official is also a big deal! Don't worry, my parents only recognize you as their eldest daughter-in-law! Zizhen, help your mother go back to the room first!" Old Man Li felt that his chest was tight, and he felt distressed for Qianzi.

I just wanted to slap my chest with my hands, as if this would make me feel better.

"Old man, please take your time, don't be anxious, come and take a drink of water first!" Feng quickly handed over a glass of water, and Old Man Li finally felt better after taking a few sips.

"Now that things have come to a close, let's discuss how to collect the remaining three hundred taels of silver!"

"Huh, we don't have any money. Whoever wants to join in can join in. I haven't heard of a brother-in-law who wants to give his brother money to take a concubine. What a joke!" Xiao Feng said and pulled Li Erzhi away. Li Erzhi left.

Chiya followed suit.

"Second brother, if you don't want to help your brother today, you can go alone. Tomorrow you and your wife can pack up and leave! Even if the boss is wrong, he is still a brother. If something happens to him, how can you guys get over it?

If it really breaks out, the whole family will be embarrassed! But don't worry, this disaster was caused by the boss. Your brothers are trying to help him now, and he will accept your kindness in the future. You can show it.

Even if he borrowed the money from your brothers, in the future, I will let him pay it back with interest to you, my dear brothers. Break the bones and connect them to the roots. You guys can each do what you want!"

"Dad, I am willing to help my eldest brother, but we are not divided, and all the income goes to the father-in-law. Where does the money come from? My wife has some dowry. I can't take it by force. You can ask her directly.

Are you willing?" Li Erzhi said looking at his father with a troubled face.

"Dad, it's not that I don't want to help, but I really don't have any money. It's not like you don't know the situation of Zhang's family. Let's not mention the dowry. I still borrowed the money for my little sister's dowry a few days ago!" Li Laizhi

He said in a muffled voice that the couple had never been welcomed by the family. Zhang's natal family was poor and she had many brothers and sisters, so she had to subsidize her. He himself was not as capable as the third brother, who knew how to do woodwork and hunt. Zhang himself

I haven't bought a new piece of clothing since I got married, my money is always tight, I don't have a few coins saved, and there is nothing I can do to help.

Old Man Li knew the situation in his sons' rooms, so he had no choice but to cast his hopeful eyes on Li Sanzhi.

"Dad, I still have more than two taels of silver in my room. I will send it over in a moment. As for Huiniang's dowry, you know that it is gone. How about selling some land, or seeing where my little sister has it?

No?" Although Li Sanzhi hated his eldest brother for causing such a big mess, how could he not help?

"No, your little sister just got married, aren't you deliberately causing trouble for her?" Feng said with her eyebrows. How can people think highly of you and treat you if you subsidize your parents' family just after they got married? Feng is the most precious daughter, and she doesn't want to do this because of this.

The incident affected my daughter's life.

"Third brother, this matter can only be blamed on you. You can't ignore your eldest brother! The land at home cannot be sold, otherwise the two brothers will not have the money to take the exam next year. You see, you go with

Madam Liu, let her borrow it from her parents' family. Isn't her sister well married? I heard that her sister-in-law also comes from a wealthy family, so I think three hundred taels won't be a problem!" Mrs. Feng wiped her tears and said, Old Man Li also took it.

Looking at Li Sanzhi, he obviously thought this was a good idea.

"Mom, how do you ask Huiniang to say anything about this? Besides, her mother's family is not a big family, and she has three hundred taels of silver." What Li Sanzhi didn't say was: the little girl's dowry alone is enough.

We have a thousand taels, why don't we take them out first to help with emergencies? We are afraid that our daughter will be wronged because of this, but we are not afraid that our son and daughter-in-law will be embarrassed. Li Sanzhi was disappointed in his heart, and was secretly glad that Mr. Liu accompanied Mr. Yang back, otherwise he would have felt uncomfortable.

"Look what mother said, you can't just point at us. My little sister has so much dowry. Who knows if she can just pick something up? Why point at my little thing? People in the Zhu family are also aiming at the reputation of their eldest brother and fifth brother as scholars.

I just came here to ask for marriage, and it’s just the right time for my little sister to return my love!" Xiao Feng said with a smile, and then she remembered that there was a little girl with a generous dowry.

"Oh my god, I can't live anymore. What are you doing raising these children? Why do you have to worry about them when the time comes? They refuse to save each one of them, even if you can help but don't help. I might as well strangle them to death after they are born."

Don't worry about eating and drinking, and then only worrying about your daughter-in-law disobeying your parents, you are unfilial! Oooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo Feng rolled to the ground, slapping her thighs and crying loudly.

"Mom, what are you doing? How are we being unfilial? Aren't we discussing this?" Li Sanzhi immediately went over to help Feng.

"Then you agreed to let Ms. Liu go to her parents' house to borrow money?" Ms. Feng immediately stopped crying and asked.

Li Sanzhi looked embarrassed. If he agreed to this matter, Hui Niang would have a big fight with him no matter how virtuous and considerate she was. Besides, although the property was divided, the family was not divided at all. She borrowed so much money all at once.

The eldest brother-in-law must also have objections. If Huiniang is asked to borrow money from her younger siblings, will Huiniang have the nerve to return to her parents' home in the future? The Liu family has helped them enough! But if they don't agree, and Mom is making trouble like this,,,

.

"Mom, you are too partial. Even if you ask your third brother and sister to borrow it from your mother's house, it is impossible to borrow so much at once. My little sister's dowry is so rich, even if you take out some of it, it won't be a big deal!" Li Erzhi was really hurt.

There is no favoritism between parents. Over the years, if the third brother is honest and honest, he can be exploited. If the daughter is wronged, can the son-in-law be wronged?

"Okay, okay, I don't want to borrow so much. I still have some scraps of money. Second child, you go to your little sister's place tomorrow to borrow some. Third child, you have a good talk with your wife and ask your in-laws to help.

Village point; Fourth child, you go to your eldest sister's place tomorrow and borrow some. If it's not enough, I'll give up this old face and find someone to borrow it! Let's all disperse. That beast, when you come back, look

I won’t break his legs!” After listening to his second son’s words, Old Man Li knew that it would be inappropriate to borrow all the money from Liu’s family, so he had to think of another way.
