Chapter 157 I Want to Hit Her with a Sandbag
"Of course not!"
When Chen Xianghua heard the name of the county magistrate, she immediately interrupted Cheng Yue and said, "My eldest brother told me that there was indeed someone behind Cheng Yue and the others, named Mr. Chen San, who was said to be a big shot."
It's not unreasonable to be able to get close to the county magistrate.
Thinking that all the money went into Cheng Yue's pocket, Chen Xianghua felt jealous. Why?
"Who said I can't afford it? This doesn't look good. I want mung bean cakes. Give me a pound!
After all, I am your biological sister, and I have sent you a gift. You should also give me one pound. No, you have to give me more!
Second sister-in-law, you won't be unhappy, right? We are all family, you can't be so stingy. If others know about it, who will come to you to buy things, right?
Daya, what are you staring at? It's obvious that your parents have taught you bad things. Hurry up and pack me some mung bean cakes. You don't need too much. Five pounds will be enough!"
Chen Xianghua's unreasonable and arrogant look made Cheng Yue laugh. If she couldn't afford it, she just said she couldn't afford it. And she still wanted to give it to her? And she even wanted to teach her daughter a lesson? What a shameless person!
"Madam Zeng, we have already severed our relationship. You, a daughter who married out, have even less relationship with us. What sister? We don't have any sister!
Besides, didn't you give this gift voluntarily? Could it be that Master Zeng Youcai does things this way?
After I sent you a gift, you used this as a threat to make me give you a few more kilograms of cakes? Tsk tsk, who would dare to accept Mr. Zeng's gift from now on?
Come on, I'll return this tael of silver to you. Otherwise, if you ask me for five catties of cakes today, I'm afraid you'll ask me to pay you back ten taels of gold tomorrow!"
Cheng Yue spoke loudly on purpose, and all the customers selling pastries looked over here. Even the people at the braised food shop stretched their necks to look over here.
"What? Zeng Youcai from Huaishu Town? Isn't he quite wealthy? Why are you so unhappy about giving the gift? If you don't want to, can't you just not give it?"
"That must be his wife! She looks well dressed, but why is she acting so shameless? Does Zeng Youcai know?"
"Oh my! This really opened my eyes. He is not short of money, why would he be greedy for such a small bargain?"
Chen Xianghua's face suddenly turned red, as if it was on fire, and she twisted the handkerchief in her hand fiercely, this Cheng Yue! !
Chen An turned his head away and ignored her. Great! This is his good second brother!
He could only smile at everyone, "You all heard me wrong, I was joking. How could a respectable man like our master do things like this?"
Then she deliberately acted coquettishly and said, "Second sister-in-law, pack me five catties of mung bean cakes, how much silver do you need, I will pay you!
Isn't it just some pastries? How can I not pay? It's just a joke, you are so ridiculous! "
Cheng Yue felt a chill. She was already so old, but she was still winking and stamping her feet at her. Did she think she was cute?
No wonder Liang Hongyu wanted to bully her. She even wanted to hit her with a sandbag!
Cheng Yue endured the discomfort and turned to call Chen Tong, "Xiao Tong, go and get five pounds of mung bean cakes."
I quickly took the money and told her to get out. I couldn't stand it. The powder on my face was about to fly onto her pastries.
Chen Xianghua gritted her teeth and just gave two hundred and fifty coins when she saw Cheng Yue laughing while counting the coins. She was immediately furious.
You can buy one more or one less jin, why did you buy five jin, exactly two hundred and fifty wen, doesn't that mean you are an idiot! !
Chen Xianghua stomped her feet and turned away angrily. Just wait for her. Even if the eldest brother doesn't look for her, she will get back the face she lost today!
Cheng Yue quickly waved to Lai Xing to come over, whispered a few words in his ear, and Lai Xing nodded and walked out.
Chen Xianghua left the shop, and the more she thought about it, the angrier she got. She had come to see what was going on, but ended up getting ripped off! She was really at a loss!
This Cheng Yue is really vicious. I was deceived by her before and thought she was a brainless wimp.
After the family was split up and the relationship was severed, her true nature was revealed. Cheng Yue was so mean. She had called her sister-in-law several times, but today she was embarrassed!
And there is her elder brother. If he hadn't instigated her, how could she have endured such bullying!
Thinking of this, Chen Xianghua paused, turned around and went to Jinxiu Pavilion to find Chen Ping. The money lost today must be paid back by the eldest brother!
There was nothing to do in the jewelry shop. Chen Ping was standing at the door with his hands behind his back. Fortunately, Manager Jiang was not there, otherwise he would have definitely mocked him if he saw him like this.
After standing there for less than a quarter of an hour, he saw Chen Xianghua walking towards the shop with a puffy look on her face and several baskets of cakes wrapped in oil paper in her hands.
It was obvious that he had started off badly. He cursed inwardly for not being able to do his job well, but he kept a friendly smile on his face.
"Little sister, what's wrong with you? Did you just come from your second brother and his wife's place?"
It would have been fine if Chen Ping didn't laugh, but when he did, Chen Xianghua became even angrier, glaring at him and saying, "Brother, is it funny to ask even though you already know the answer? If you hadn't insisted on coming to me, would I have been able to bear this?
I spent two taels of silver today, you must compensate me! Otherwise, I will not be responsible for Xiaogen's marriage!"
When Chen Gen was studying, Chen Ping had thought that once he had achieved fame, he could marry into a prominent Yue family, but Cheng Yue made things difficult for him.
He had no hope of success and he was old enough, so he could only find a wife right away. However, he looked down upon the families in the village.
The young lady of the boss's family is quite nice, but Chen Gen has no future, so he dare not bring it up, for fear of being accused of being a toad wanting to eat swan flesh.
So they had to ask Chen Xianghua to ask the girl from the Zeng family. Although the Zeng family was not wealthy, they had enough food and clothing, and were a good match for them.
He had just chosen a girl and was waiting for the next move, but Chen Xianghua threatened him with marriage. Chen Ping was so angry that he said:
"Little sister, I asked you to go and take a look, but I didn't ask you to spend money. You spent money on buying things, how can it be counted on me?
Besides, the reason I asked you to go and see is because your brother-in-law is capable and he was thinking of some way to help your mother vent her anger.
"Old Second has so much money, I called you because I wanted to share the profits. I was thinking of you, why are you still arguing with me?"
Chen Xianghua sneered, "Brother, I know who you are, don't treat me as a fool, we all know what you are thinking, why pretend to be confused?
I can do this, but you have to be sincere. Mother has always been partial to you. Even when I got married, I didn't give you much dowry. Today, I lost two taels of silver because of you.
Business at home is not going well, and my husband has been very worried recently. If he knew about this...brother, think about it. If I am not doing well in the Zeng family, I can't help you if you have any problems."
Zeng Youcai has a wide range of contacts and knows everyone. If he wants to trick Cheng Yue and the others, he really has to find someone, and he can't get involved with them. Chen Ping is determined to vent his anger, so he can only find Chen Xianghua.
But this little sister is also very cunning and hard to fool. Chen Ping's mind was buzzing. Why is there such a tangled mess around him? !
