Dragging the family to flee famine?Don't be afraid, I have room to fill the granary

Chapter 38 Jinpu meets Tao (2)

When she heard that she was going to confront the government, Tao Shi became even more nervous, and grabbed the hairpin from the shopkeeper's hand: "We won't sell it anymore. Let's go."

Seeing that they were about to leave, Jiang Ye at the side said coldly, "Chang Ning, stop them."

Chang Ning, who was guarding the carriage outside the door, immediately jumped out of the carriage and blocked the entrance of the gold shop when he heard his son's order.

Boss Tao was about to push him away, but Chang Ning kicked him directly, "Stealing things and wanting to run away, follow us to the government."

The eldest daughter-in-law saw that her man was kicked away, she hurried over to help him up with distress, and then shouted at Chang Ning angrily: "Who said we stole something, this thing is ours."

Speaking of this, she turned around and looked at Tao Qiniang again: "Oh, I understand, this bitch thinks this thing is expensive, so she wants to blackmail us. Shame on you."

Jiang Ye looked at the eldest daughter-in-law and said blankly: "It's true, just go to the magistrate to find out if it's right. If this thing belongs to you, then we will apologize, make amends, or even pay for it. It’s okay.”

As soon as he finished speaking, Tao Boss, who had been silent for a long time, looked at Jiang Ye, who was speaking for Tao Qiniang, and asked with a questioning look on his face: "Where did you come from?"

Before Jiang Ye could answer his question, Boss Tao realized that Tao Qiqi was nowhere to be seen, so he looked at Tao Qiniang and asked curiously, "Hey, why didn't you see Tao Qiqi, who lost money today?"

Jiang Ye, who was at the side, suddenly heard Boss Tao say that Tao Qiqi was a loser, and he seemed to understand something. He finally got the answer to his previous doubts. The answer made him raise the corner of his mouth, but his expression did not change. anyone noticed.

When Boss Tao asked this question, the boss's wife immediately changed the subject: "What an ignorant bitch. It's only been a long time since she left our Tao family, and I don't know how many men have changed around her. I'm afraid Tao Qiqi hasn't been killed by this bitch long ago." Sell ​​it. Where can I find the money to buy jewelry?"

"You didn't care about Qiqi's life and death before, and it has nothing to do with you now. The hairpin is mine, and you still don't want to return it? If you don't return it, I will sue the officials. I have evidence to prove that the hairpin is mine." Fortunately, Tao Qiniang was not stupid, she didn't let them change the subject.

The Tao family on the side has already talked about this, after calming down just now, now he has resumed his previous tricky and mean: "What prefect are you looking for, this hairpin is yours, so what if I take it? Our Tao family I saved your life more than ten years ago, took you in again, and raised you for more than ten years. Fortunately, you patted your ass and left in the end. What a white-eyed wolf. Now this hairpin is your return of our kindness. "

"That's right, even if you have a dog, it's better than you." The eldest daughter-in-law echoed.

Taoshi: "Could it be that the grace of saving lives and the kindness of more than ten years can't compare with your hairpin?"

Listening to Tao Shi and the eldest daughter-in-law talking to each other, Tao Qiniang didn't know how to answer their words.

Indeed, it was their Tao family who rescued her more than ten years ago. Although she ended up being the daughter-in-law of their son for more than ten years, she still had the grace to save her life. die?Then there is nothing wrong with them wanting to take this hairpin away.

Seeing that Tao Qiniang was frightened by her, Tao raised her lips proudly.

Jiang Ye who was on the side heard their conversation and almost understood a thing or two. Seeing that Tao Qiniang was silent, he stood up and said, "Since that's the case, didn't you want to sell this hairpin just now? 50 taels, we'll buy it." gone."

Taoshi was so excited when she heard 50 taels, and was about to agree, the eldest daughter-in-law at the side hurried over to stop her, and then whispered in Taoshi's ear: "Mother, 50 taels is less, since they can do this Compromise quickly, and if Tao Qiniang wants to repay the kindness of our Tao family, then it is even more impossible to sell the hairpin to her so cheaply."

When Mrs. Tao heard this, she looked at her eldest daughter-in-law and asked in a low voice: "Then how much do you think is appropriate?"

The eldest daughter-in-law looked at Tao Qiniang and then at Jiang Ye and Mrs. Jiang beside her. After thinking for a while, she raised a finger.

Tao received the advice from the eldest daughter-in-law, so she looked at Jiang Ye and said, "50 taels is too little. Let's not talk about the Tao family's kindness to Tao Qiniang. We won't sell this hairpin for just 100 taels."

"100 taels!! Are you stealing money?" Mrs. Jiang couldn't help being surprised. "It doesn't matter if you go to a pawn shop or sell this gold hairpin at a gold store, it's not bad if you can sell it for 30 taels. I'll give you 50 taels for Qiniang's sake. Now that you're calling If it costs 100 taels, then you can sell it to the owner of the gold shop."

When Tao heard that they refused directly, she looked at her eldest daughter-in-law with dissatisfaction. Instead of making 50 taels, she had to lose.

The eldest daughter-in-law saw that they refused, and her mother-in-law was dissatisfied with her proposal. She rolled her eyes and decided to take another gamble, so she replied: "Then we won't sell it. Don't you want to return this golden hairpin? Unless you yourself Buy it back from us."

Upon hearing this, Tao felt that the idea was good, so she nodded in agreement: "That's right, we won't sell it anymore. Let's go."

"Wait!!" Seeing that they were about to leave, Tao Qiniang hurriedly called out.

"For 100 taels, I bought this hairpin as repayment of the life-saving grace of your Tao family. As for the more than ten years of kindness, I don't think I need to repay it. Let's not talk about the more than ten years of my life in your Tao family. Here, I get up early every day and work hard at night, working as a cow or a horse, serving everyone in your Tao family. Even if I don't get any credit, I still have hard work.

When your Tao family rescued me, I had more than just this golden hairpin on me.If I remember correctly, there should be a jade bracelet, a pair of earrings, and a tassel hosta. These things together are worth a lot of silver.I don’t need you to return those things to me. I also bought 100 taels of these hairpins. But from now on, the grace of saving my life, the grace of taking me in, and all the kindness I owe you will be completely cleared from your Tao family. "

Through the hairpin just now, she could recall some vague memories. In her memory, the hairpin was specific and important to her, so she had to get it back.

After hearing Tao Qiniang's words, Tao replied nervously: "I don't know what you are talking about, what jade bracelets, what earrings, what tassel jade hairpins, we have never seen it before, when we rescued you, we only saw it. to something like this."

"Where did the sixth brother give the earrings to Miss Chai? And about the matter of the sixth brother, where did the money come from? These years, the sixth brother went to private schools to do favors, and they all wanted money? What conditions did the Tao family have? Can you stand up to his tossing around outside? Are there any of those things that you and I know in our hearts, and since I no longer pursue them, I should repay your Tao family's life-saving grace, and it will be considered a clean slate in the future. "

After Tao Qiniang finished speaking, without waiting for Tao Shi to say anything else, she turned around and whispered to Jiang Ye, "Mr. Jiang, can I trouble you to ask your people to help me go back and get the silver? But don't let Qi Qi know that I met these people." thing."

She didn't want Qi Qi to have anything to do with these people anymore, she could solve her own affairs as long as she could.

This time, if they know that Qiqi can make money and threaten them with this, they will never be able to get rid of this group of blood-sucking worms in their entire lives.

Jiang Ye nodded, then called Chang Ning, and told Chang Ning to go back to the yard to get the silver.
