When she heard that Han Xiang came over, Han Qiao frowned slightly.
“Invite her in.”
Han Xiang was wearing a bright red coat, and her face was filled with joy.
Zhou Anshan followed beside her and carefully supported her.
Han Qiao was not blind. She instantly understood that Han Xiang was pregnant.
Han Xiaohong could also tell that she was in a difficult position as she looked at Han Qiao.
“Sisterj oh and Xiaohong is here too.” Han Xiang said with a bright smile.
“Since you’re here, come in and sit.”
“Sister Ah-Xiang.”
Han Xiang nodded and went forward to hold Han Qiao’s arm.
“Sis, we’re going to split up. You promised to lend me money at that time, are you still willing to give?”
Han Qiao glanced at Han Xiang and then at Zhou Anshan.
“How much?11
“Five hundred taels!”
Han Qiao smiled.
She really dared to open her mouth. Buying a house in Ninghe Town was only twenty taels.
Her mother-in-law, daughter-in-law, and sisters-in-law would fight for ten taels of silver, yet she asked for five hundred taels.
“Why do you want to borrow five hundred taels?”
“I’m doing business with you.”
Han Qiao asked them to sit.
“500 taels is impossible, even 50 taels is impossible.”
“I said at that time that I could only lend you ten taels at most.”
Han Xiang was unhappy to hear that.
“What can you do with only ten taels? I can’t even buy a house in the county town. I still want to buy a carriage. How can ten taels be enough?”
Han Qiao was unmoved.
If the relationship between sisters was good, she would agree.
However, she wasn’t close to Han Xiang to begin with. “That’s your business.
I’ll lend you ten taels because of our sisterhood. Ten taels of silver.”
“Why are you so petty? You live in such a big house and have so many servants, but you’re not even willing to lend me five hundred taels. Are you still my biological sister?”
“I am stingy. You’re so generous. When 1 went home after my divorce, you didn’t give me a single needle or thread. When 1 moved into my new house, what did you give me…”
Han Xiang’s face instantly turned red, and she could only open and close her mouth, unable to speak.
“I’ll say it again. When you come to the county town, if you want to have a cup of tea, a meal, or a rest, you’re always welcome. If you want to borrow money, I can only lend you ten taels of silver. If you couldn’t return it, there wouldn’t be a next time.”
“Don’t think that I’m cruel and stingy. After all, my money didn’t come from the wind. Heng Yi risked his life to get it.”
Han Qiao made it very clear.
Han Xiang’s expression turned ugly when she saw that she couldn’t achieve her goal.
She stood up angrily and said, “It’s just a little money. What’s the big deal? 1 can still earn the same amount.”
Zhou Anshan was so anxious that his eyes turned red.
He kept signaling Han Xiang to stop it.
Han Xiang looked at Han Qiao and said, “Oh right, I forgot to tell you that I’m pregnant.”
“What about you? When are you going to give birth to a boy or a girl for Heng Yi?”
Han Qiao was not the only one.
Even Han Xiaohong, who had been watching from the side, could not sit still.
“Sister Ah-Xiang, how can you be like this?”
“Don’t interrupt us. This is a talk between sisters.”
Han Qiao chuckled. “Congratulations on having another son.”
“Of course. We already have two sons. We must have another one.” Han Xiang raised her proud head.
Her eyes are full of complacency
So what if her sister was rich? It was not as if she could not give birth to a son.
Who knows who would benefit from the money in the future?
“Yes, have a few more sons. Hurry up and go home and have another one. I won’t keep you. Uncle Hu, send the guests out.”
“Yes.”
Uncle Hu immediately came forward. “Please.”
He was respectful and polite, but his tone was very unfriendly.
“Let’s go then. Where’s the silver you promised to lend?”
“No, I only have three daughters after all. 1 have to save up some dowry for them, unlike you. You have to give birth to a few sons so that you don’t have to worry about food and clothing in the future.”
Han Xiang was stunned.
Why didn’t she lend the money to her?
“You agreed–*
“I’m going back on my word.” As Han Qiao spoke, her expression darkened. “Uncle Hu, send the guests out. If they refuse to leave, throw them out.”
She was getting more annoyed by this idiot.
She did not know how the Han family taught her to be so brainless.
Or rather, Han Xiang was not brainless. She just felt that Han Qiao was easy to bully.
Insinuating that she could not give birth to a son was infuriating.
It was none of her business whether she had a son or not.
She came to her door without even bringing her brain to ask for five hundred taels. What an arrogant fool.
Han Xiang’s eyes reddened instantly.
“You, you… You didn’t keep your word.”
Zhou Anshan couldn’t stand it anymore and reached out to pull her. “Let’s go.”
He was also furious.
Han Qiao had agreed to those terms when they decided to split from his main family.
Han Xiang looked at Han Qiao and cried. She did not understand why Han Qiao refused to lend her 500 taels of silver when she was so rich. It was not like she was refusing to return it.
Zhou Anshan pulled Han Xiang away.
Han Xiang kept turning around to glare at Han Qiao.
In the hall, Han Qiao took a deep breath and cursed, “Crazy! There’s a hole in her brain.”
“People say that pregnancy makes one stupid for three years.”
Han Xiaohong softly comforted her, “Sister Ah-Qiao, don’t listen to her. You’re still young. It’s still very easy for you to have children.”
“I’m not angry about that. I just feel that even if my family isn’t smart, they’re not that stupid. Every time she speaks and does things, it s as if she doesn’t have a brain.”
It was also because the Han family was gradually becoming rich. If the Han family was so poor that they could not make a living, she would probably be eaten alive by the Zhou family.
“Let’s not talk about her. She’s annoying. It’s your first time coming to my house. Come, I’ll show you around.”
“Alright.”
The two cousins walked slowly hand in hand.
The house was big and clean. It looked very comfortable.
The more Han Xiaohong looked at it, the more she liked it.
“When will Brother-In-Law and I can have a house like this in the county town?”
Han Qiao looked at Han Xiaohong. “You want to split up from the main family?”
“I don’t want to be separated from my family. My Brother-In-Law is still taking the scholar examination. He’s just a scholar. He’ll need a lot of money to study in the future…” Han Xiaohong sighed.
“No matter how much we earn now, we have to give 80% to our parents and keep the 20% to ourselves. However, Eldest Brother and Second Brother don’t help at all. They use the excuse of having worked in the fields and at home as an excuse to avoid the problem early on.”
“What did Brother-In-Law say?” Han Qiao asked.
“What can he say? It’s not as if he could earn a hundred taels every time he came to the county town. Even if he handed over 80% of it, he could still keep a few taels a year. But don’t you think about how much we have to pay?”
“When others send firewood over, they will bring my daughter with them when checking any impurities with the wood. My parents-in-law are also very busy. They are busy with the fields, the house, the chickens, and ducks…”
“Sister Ah-Qiao, it’s not that I want to complain, but I’m pregnant now. My little girl just learned how to walk, so she needs someone to watch her wherever she goes.”
“I understand.” Han Qiao held Han Xiaohong’s hand.
Every family has their own problems.
The Zheng family thought that no matter what, the money would go into their pockets anyway, so they did what they had to do.
“Then you can discuss it with Brother-In-Law. If your family helps with the work, you can pay 80% of it. If you don’t help, you have to pay less.”
“If you don’t tell him some things, he won’t think of this as a man.”
“If you give birth to a son this time, you should also plan a future for that child.”
Han Qiao said..
