Chapter 44: Loan
Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
“Second Brother became so enraged that he yelled at our uncle, declaring that he would repay the money to him!”
“Then this morning, Second Brother left early, saying he was borrowing money from a friend. He hasn’t returned yet.”
“This morning, Aunt and Cousin came to our house, demanding payment. We wanted to keep the fish for you to cook, but they took everything, claiming it was a fraction of the interest owed.”
“Fifth Brother and I tried to stop them, but Fifth Brother was pushed to the ground and injured his knees.”
“I’m so scared with no adults around. I’m afraid Aunt will take away the 25 kilograms of rice you bought the next time she comes.”
Su Ning burst into tears, looking utterly pitiful.
Qin Zhenzhen’s anger ignited as well.
Ms. Lin and her family had gone too far!
And they were their own relatives—uncles and aunts!
They were akin to bandits!
Qin Zhenzhen tried to console Su Ning. “Don’t cry. They can’t take anything away from me!”
However, Su Ning continued sobbing. “I’m worried that if Second Brother can’t gather the money, Uncle will forcefully sell our fields, and Second Brother will fight against them…
“You’re concerned that your Second Brother won’t be able to overpower them.
But hasn’t he learned martial arts before?”
“No, I’m worried that Second Brother might harm them and end up facing legal consequences. I don’t want him to be taken away by the authorities because of Uncle, which would doom him forever.”
Qin Zhenzhen was taken aback. She hadn’t expected Su Ning to have such worries at such a young age. Even some adults might not possess the same level of foresight as her.
“Similar to the other day when you stopped your brother and my brother from fighting because you were concerned about hurting them, right?” Qin Zhenzhen developed a newfound admiration for Su Ning.
“So, you want me to help you?”
Su Ning nodded earnestly. “You’re the only one who can assist us at this moment.”
Qin Zhenzhen maintained her composure as she asked calmly, “How do you want me to help?”
Could it be that Su Ning was interested in her dowry?
Did they want her to use her dowry to pay off the debt?
Unaware of Qin Zhenzhen’s detached demeanor, Su Ning explained her thoughts.
“I want you to help us negotiate with Uncle and his family to reduce the interest owed. You’re not as impulsive as my Second Brother, and I believe you have the capability to handle my uncle and his family.”
Qin Zhenzhen responded coolly, “And?”
Su Ning continued, “Then your family can lend us the money to repay the debt. Don’t worry, we won’t borrow without compensation. We can offer you interest, and we’ll provide the land contract as collateral to your family.”
“If we’re unable to repay the loan in the future, the fields will belong to your family. This way, your family won’t be at a disadvantage.”
That sounded more reasonable.
Qin Zhenzhen looked at Su Ning with genuine interest. “You’re just a young girl, and you don’t have the authority to make such decisions. Your brothers will handle the problem, so why are you worried?”
Anxiously, Su Ning explained, “No, this is the plan Fifth Brother and I devised. My Second Brother won’t be able to borrow any money, and my Third Brother is about to become a Cultivated Talent soon. We don’t want to distract him, and my Fourth Brother won’t be able to do much either.”
“Uncle has only given us three days, which is why I’m begging you.”
Qin Zhenzhen placed her hand on Su Ning’s shoulder. “Don’t worry, maybe your Second Brother can recover some money.”
“By that time, we can just ask the village chief for justice.”
Su Ning was shocked. She had not expected that her Third Sister-in-law would not be convinced.
Qin Zhenzhen opened the bag. “I have brought glutinous rice and soft cakes home. They are still hot, sweet and fragrant. Ask your Fifth Brother to join us to eat them together..”
