Fainted

Zhao Zhan stared at him just as coldly.

Zhao Kuazi felt like she was being stared at by a higher being on the mountain. She looked at Zhao Zhan’s dark eyes and swallowed her saliva, not daring to curse.

However, the moment she thought of having to pay, it was as if someone was using a knife to cut her flesh. She could not help but avoid Zhao Zhan’s gaze and mumbled in a low voice, “I can only pay you three silver for these things.”

“Zhao Zhan, how much did you spend on the clothes you bought for me today?”

Zhao Zhan glanced at the clothes on the ground, crouched, and pointed to the pile.

“That pink set cost eight hundred copper coins. The light yellow set next to it, which is similar to your original clothes, cost one silver coin. The other clothes were made of the best fine cotton in the tailor shop, which cost two silver coins. In total, they cost three coins and eight hundred copper coins.

“I also spent one silver on the pastries that they took and ate.

“As for those leather, I always save them up and sell them to foreign merchants who come in winter. This leather can be sold for eighteen silver coins in total.

“In total, you have to pay us twenty-two silver and eight hundred copper coins.”

“What?!” Zhao Kuazi’s voice cracked from all the shouting. “You want me to compensate you with more than twenty silver coins for this junk?”

She didn’t dare to curse, so she just sat on the ground and cried.

“You’re forcing me to my death!

“I’ve worked so hard to raise you for so many years, and now you want me to compensate you with such a large sum of silver.

“Even if you sell me, I can’t afford it!

“Is there any law in this world where the nephew shouldn’t work his aunt to death?!”

“Lizheng, since you’re here today, why don’t we settle the matter of the separation of the family?” Yue Jiaojiao ignored Zhao Kuazi’s wailing, her little face full of seriousness.

“If I recall from the conversation earlier, after Zhao Zhan’s parents passed away, his house and land were temporarily managed by her, right? We won’t haggle over the silver as Zhao Zhan’s food expenses were paid for so many years.

“In the past, Zhao Zhan did not need to feed his entire family. Now that we have a family, shouldn’t we have the house and land back?”

As Yue Jiaojiao spoke, she pointed to a half-thatched house in the courtyard and sighed in worry.

“It’s going to rain soon. If this thatched house can’t hold on, Zhao Zhan and I will have no place to go…”

She said it pitifully, and her voice was so defeated that Lizheng’s heart clenched.

That’s right! After Zhao Zhan’s father passed away, the house and land were occupied by the duo.

This was especially true for Zhao Zhan’s house. Originally, there was a space between the two houses that was as wide as two people’s shoulders to walk on. However, not long after Zhao Zhan’s parents died, they tore down the walls of the two houses and merged them together.

Looking at it now, it was clear that he had long planned to occupy other people’s land and real estate!

As a well-educated and righteous Lizheng, he absolutely could not watch Zhao Zhan and his wife have nowhere to go!

As soon as Yue Jiaojiao mentioned moving out, Zhao Kuazi’s sobs had stopped, and she was listening attentively.

Seeing Lizheng’s eyes looking over, Zhao Kuazi rolled her eyes and quickly pretended to faint.

If she was still awake, there would be nothing left!

This little demon was evil!

The husband looked at his wife who had fainted on the ground. He gritted his teeth and regretted his slow reaction.

Yue Jiaojiao looked at them unhurriedly. “Lizheng, let’s go sit under the shed for a while. It’s going to rain heavily soon. We’ll talk to Kuazi again when she wakes up.”
