Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
Zhao Ming had a bad look on her face. She said angrily, “Of course I am here to collect debt! The County Magistrate got so much money from our home, so,
I am here to collect it from you! So what?”
That was not a secret among all the rich families in the county. Even the masters and mistresses from the Zhao Family knew about it. Zhao Ming naturally believed that she did not need to keep it a secret, thus spilling it out loudly.
Qiao Xuan thought to herself that no wonder she was a good friend with Qiao Wei. They had the same temper!
But she was shocked by what Zhao Ming said.
Did her father get much money from the Zhao Family? It seemed that her husband was right… her father was in desperate need of money.
The Zhao Family might have been annoyed to offer a few hundred liang. But if Zhao Ming was this worked up, then, it basically meant that the Qiao Family had taken thousands of liang from them.
Qiao Xuan was shocked.
Thousands of liang was a very large number.
The Zhao Family was rich, but she was sure that they could not stand that much taken out of their family as well.
Qiao Xuan said calmly, “Lady Zhao, you are behaving way over the top. I don’t know much about what happened. But my father has been treating you and your family well these days. Why do you react so much to loaning out this little money?”
“Little money?” Zhao Ming sneered. “We gave your family many presents over the years. But still, he took 3,500 liang from us. You said that is little? It seems that you are rich enough to call this amount ‘little’ now?”
Qiao Xuan. ‘
She really wanted to tell her that a few thousands of liang was a small amount for her now. She had cash worth more than 40,000 liang.
But what position was her father trying to achieve, which cost him so much?
He was in such a hurry…
Did it mean that he was leaving the country soon? That would be great.
Qiao Xuan showed a look of surprise. “Then, what is it got to do with me?”
“Ha!” Zhao Ming sneered. “You are his daughter! Qiao Xuan, if I tell others that you are living in a house with glazed windows and large yards, and you even have hundreds of mu of fields, what do you think will happen?”
Qiao Xuan was speechless. She got nothing good out of her father, but her father had caused her such trouble.
Zhao Ming was very annoyed to have lost this much money, so she was venting her anger.
“What do you want?”
Qiao Xuan did not show any expression.
Zhao Ming believed that Qiao Xuan was pretending to be composed. She said proudly, “l know you are poor, but I want your fields. Then, I will keep this a secret for you.”
Qiao Xuan did not believe her.
Qiao Xuan was not going to give away the fields here. Even if she did, what would happen next time?
Was she going to give it to Zhao Ming whenever she wanted something from
No, she was not going to give away anything.
“You don’t want to? Aren’t you afraid that Elder Miss Qiao would know about this? Qiao Xuan, you are a smart person.. You know what choice to make!”
