Chapter 236: 236 Debt Collection 4

Xiao Yishan’s face was a mix of shame and discomfort. As the head of the family, all he could do was negotiate again, “Granny Sun, we really don’t have any money at the moment, just two hundred copper coins in total…”

“What! Just two hundred copper coins!” Granny Sun screamed, “I don’t care, your family must pay me back, even if you have to die to do it!”

Standing silently nearby, Su Qingyue calmly said, “Why don’t you tell us, how exactly do you want the Xiao Family to pay you back?” The day before, the second brother had already paid her one tael and ten copper coins. Yesterday, he only managed to catch a snake and a wild rabbit, which, even if sold, would not be enough to pay off the debt at their current value.

Granny Sun knew for sure that the Xiao Family had no money left; otherwise, they would have paid her back in full the night before.

Granny Sun looked at Su Qingyue. “You’re quite a cool one.” Fearing those in the bedroom couldn’t hear her clearly, she raised her voice, “A few days ago, didn’t old lady Liu offer seventeen taels to buy Su Qingyue? Later, she heard that Su Qingyue wanted to drown herself and was afraid she’d lose money if she bought her and Su Qingyue committed suicide, so Liu backed out of the deal. You certainly can’t sell Su Qingyue for seventeen taels anymore. Other matchmakers in the village might be willing to buy her for three or five taels. Here’s a deal: give me the deed of sale for Su Qingyue, I’ll sell her myself. If I lose money, I won’t ask you for it. Give me the deed of sale!”

“Go to hell, you damn old granny!” Xiao Yuchuan couldn’t take it anymore. “You want me to use my wife to pay off our debt? Even if I don’t pay you back today, what can you do about it?”

Xiao Yishan was also trembling with anger.

In the secondary bedroom, Xiao Qinghe closed his eyes in pain.

“Ah! So the Xiao Family is planning to default on their debt!” Granny Sun roared. “Laijin, what are you waiting for? Help me take Su Qingyue away!”

“You dare!” The three brothers in the master and secondary bedrooms yelled simultaneously.

The people outside the door were startled. That kind of anger seemed as if it would consume them all.

Granny Sun’s wrinkled old face turned white with fear, but she quickly recovered and began slapping her chest in defiance, a sarcastic smirk on her face. “You’re trying to scare me to death! What’s there to be afraid of?” She gave her son a shove, “The Xiao Family’s men are useless, don’t be afraid of them.

Take Su Qingyue away!”

Although Sun Laijin thought this was too much, he couldn’t disobey his mother. As he moved to seize Su Qingyue, her icy stare caused him to retract his hand. He found the gaze of the Xiao Family’s wife sharper than a blade. Xiao Yuchuan yelled, rolling and crawling off the bed, “Don’t touch my wife!”

Xiao Yishan wanted to rush out but was still paralyzed, “Don’t take Yue’er away,

I’ll give you anything you want…”

Qingyue went back to the room, helped the fallen Yuchuan up, and sat him back on the bed. “Third brother, don’t worry, we’ll find a way.”

“Xiao Family’s second son, these were your words. Don’t take Su Qingyue away, and you’ll give me anything I want.” Granny Sun looked around the Xiao Family’s house and yard, “Although your house and courtyard are old and not worth much money, give me the house deed, and we’ll call the debt settled.”

Aunt Zhang stared at Granny Sun as if she were a monster, “Old lady Sun, you must be mad for money.. It was already outrageous for you to take Su Qingyue away at a low price, now you want the Xiao Family’s house too? If you take the house, how will the Xiao Family’s three sons survive?”
