Senior Bai stood at the door of the room with a group of people from the Bai Family, and said with a smile: "Manager Liu, why are you free today? "Quick, sit inside."
"There's no need to sit, I'm here to find you to return the fifty silver taels that the Liu family gave me."
The people of Bai Family looked at each other. They were all pixiu reincarnations.
Old Madame Bai said: "Who gave the logic for the betrothal gift money to be returned? The Liu family is such a big family, yet they are actually so shameless. "
Manager Liu smirked: "Hehe, Old Madame Bai's words do not make sense. If she were to enter our Liu family's gate, I will pay you as much as I can for the betrothal gift. However, this person did not enter our family's gate, so you should say something else, right?"
"Take him away from my Bai Family. Regardless of whether this person enters the Liu Family's residence or not, you should not return the money for the betrothal gift."
"According to old lady's words, you don't plan on returning the gift money?"
"There's no such reason. Why would I retreat?"
Manager Liu's face darkened, "If that's the case, then don't blame me for being ruthless. Go in and search..."
The three people behind him quickly rushed towards the three rooms, all of them were people who knew martial arts, even if all of them were to use their Bai Family, they would still not be a match for them.
Two people successfully entered the main room and the second room. Only the main room was present.
As soon as the door opened, the person flew out.
Bai Xiao and Bai Yanqing looked at the people in the courtyard with anger.
Bai Yanqing did not expect that in the days that he was gone, his family would actually treat his sister like this.
Old Madame Bai followed the people who went to search in the house. She watched as they rummaged through the boxes and found the things inside.
Sobbing and shouting, he said, "Don't touch my silver taels, that's mine. Quickly put it down. You bunch of robbers! I want to report to the officials! I want to look for an officer!"
"Manager, there are thirty-six silver coins here."
Manager Liu took the silver, the Old Madame Bai rushed over, "Don't take my silver, Bai Xiao that slut is home, take her away, leave me the silver."
"How can a despicable and dissolute woman be fit to enter my Liu family?"
When Bai Yanqing heard Manager Liu insult his sister, he clenched his fists and was about to rush up to beat Manager Liu up, but he was pulled back by Bai Xiao.
"Sis, they are bullying you."
"You have no business here, go to the side." A little kid, could he withstand a punch from others in the past?
When Old Madame Bai saw Bai Xiao, she pounced over and grabbed Bai Xiao and said, "Bai Xiao, quickly go back with them. Otherwise, they will take the money from our family."
"So be it. I don't need a single cent anyway?"
The Senior Bai said: "If they take the money away, where can I find the money Brother Qing went to school for?"
Yo! Threatened ah, too bad, sister is not the original owner, not afraid of your threats.
"After my father passed away, the imperial government gave me a pension of two hundred silver. You need me to sell your granddaughter to help your grandson go to school? "
Their father was a official sixth rank household leader and had lost his life in the line of duty. Their mother could not take the blow and soon left them behind.
When their father was around, he would pay ten silver coins a month for the Bai Family. Now that he was gone, losing ten silver coins a month and having to help raise two children in the main house, flames of anger had started burning in his heart.
Otherwise, he wouldn't have been bought by the Old Madame Bai as a concubine for a dying old man.
Bai Xiao was not an easy target, the original owner would tolerate anything due to their blood ties, so she would not.
"How can this large family not need money for their daily lives? Brother Qing did not study with money? "
"The pension was given to me and Brother Qing, but the person who raised a large family of Bai Family used milk to buy me without money?"
"Enough, close the door and we won't have the time to listen to your quarreling. We still need fourteen silver taels. Hurry up and hand over the money."
"No money." Old Madame Bai didn't take money off her neck.
Senior Bai acted like he was broke, as he sat on a rock in the yard with his legs crossed.
Manager Liu looked around at the Bai Family people, and then his gaze landed on Bai Fengya who was 14 years old.
"If you don't have any money, then use that girl to pay for it."
"No." Everyone in Bai Family protected Bai Fengya, afraid that Manager Liu would let them snatch it away.
Old Madame Bai said: This is something that that damned girl Bai Xiao has done. If you want money or people, you just have to find her. Don't have any ideas about my granddaughter.
"Could it be that Second Sister is the granddaughter of Bai Family, did I pick her up just now? This matter was obviously done by you, so why do you need me to pay you? "
"Why isn't it you? If you didn't commit suicide by jumping into a river, why would the Liu family come knocking on our door? It's all because of a scourge like you that caused the death of your parents, and you still want to harm us? Get lost, get out of the Bai Family. "
It was hard to hear what the Old Madame Bai was.
Bai Yanqing was so angry that his eyes turned red, but he could do nothing to Old Madame Bai and the rest.
"Manager Liu, I will give you the rest of the silver, but I don't have that much right now. Can I pay you slowly in the future?" Bai Yanqing took out a dozen or so copper coins from his bosom.
"Bai Ansheng, that's fourteen taels of silver, not fourteen coppers."
"I'll do my best. I copy the books for the academy every day and I'll definitely return them as soon as possible."
Manager Li was moved by Bai Yanqing's filial piety, "I know you are doing this for your sister, but I am only a steward, and can't make a decision."
Bai Yanqing lowered his head in disappointment, tears rolling down his cheeks. It was all because he was useless and couldn't protect his sister.
Bai Xiao was deeply moved when she saw Bai Yanqing's actions. Since childhood, she had lived alone and had never felt any sort of kinship with Bai Yanqing. Now that she was touched by Bai Yanqing's kinship, she swore to treat him as if he was her own.
"Brother Qing, thank you. Your task now is to study hard and hand the money to me. Do you understand?"
"I am a man of my family, so I should protect my sister and make money to raise her."
Bai Xiao rubbed his head, then said to Manager Liu: "I ask Manager Liu to go back and talk to Master Liu, I really can't take out the Bai Family, the remaining 14 taels of silver, I ask him to forgive me for 3 days, 3 days later, I will definitely return 14 taels of silver, okay?"
"Miss Bai, please don't make things difficult for me, because after what happened today, the old master lost his temper. I really can't make decisions."
Manager Liu also sympathized with Bai Xiao's situation. With the death of both father and mother, there was also a person who did not acknowledge as his mother just for money.
This was the first time Bai Xiao felt so helpless.
"I'll pay fourteen silver coins." Everyone looked towards the door.
Yang Dingchu walked with large strides to Bai Xiao's side. His tall and big figure enveloped her, immediately allowing the helpless and helpless Bai Xiao to feel a lot more at ease.
Manager Liu looked at Yang Dingchu, then looked at Bai Xiao, "This is?"
