Adventure (4)

The eldest son was still pulling a long face and acting like a father. He didn't say anything.1

Gao Mingjiang sneered. "We're spending money together, but I'm the only one paying back the money? Do you think that's reasonable?"

"No, of course not!" Fearing that his brother was really gone, Gao Mingjiang's second eldest brother panicked. He turned around and glared at his mother.

Unfortunately, she didn't take the hint.

The eldest son didn't know what to do. He was supposed to be the boss of the family, but everyone listened to Gao Mingjiang.

The second son was dropping so much hint with his eyes that his eyeballs were about to have cramps. Finally, his mother finally realized what he meant. She looked at her eldest son inquiringly.

Should she pay up?

The eldest son was so frustrated. He didn't want to part with the money!

It just so happened that without Gao Mingjiang, they wouldn't know where to go next. So…

"It's only ten taels of silver, isn't it? Since Mingjiang borrowed it, just pay up." The eldest son stormed off after that.

Old Mrs. Gao rolled her eyes at Feng Wu. "You're just a beggar. Where did you get the money? Did you steal it?"

If the girl had stolen the silver, why should she give it back? No!

Feng Wu smirked. "I have some flour, too. Did you think I stole it, too? You ate it, so spit it out now!"

The old lady said, "You!"

The sharp-tongued girl was infuriating.

Sanya looked at Feng Wu in admiration. Sister Feng was amazing…

Her grandmother was the most unreasonable and vicious-tongued grandmother. Usually, she would make Sanya and her mother so frustrated that they couldn't retort. But now, Sister Feng was so glib!

The girl's eyes lit up as she stared at Feng Wu.

Old Mrs. Gao was furious, but Feng Wu wasn't done yet. She stared at the old lady and said, "I don't have to travel with you, alright? Now, give me back my money and the pancakes. I'm leaving!"

The pancakes?!

Immediately, the daughters-in-law and their children panicked. They had been enjoying the show, but now, their cheese had been touched.

"Mother, look…" The wife of the eldest son had always considered herself a kind woman. She stepped out and helped the old lady to her feet. "Everyone, please calm down."

She smiled at Feng Wu. "Mom didn't say she wasn't going to give it back. Kiddo, don't worry. Let's talk like civilized people."

The other daughters-in-law of the Gao family chimed in as well.

They all tried to persuade the old lady to return the money.

Didn't they care about the money? Of course, they did. Each family would get two taels of silver if the money was divided, but they were fugitives, and money couldn't buy food at the moment.

Her eldest daughter-in-law whispered something in the old lady's ear, and the old lady's eyes lit up. Finally, she gave Feng Wu ten taels of silver.

She glared at Feng Wu. "Just this once. Lend it to Mingjiang again and I won't pay you back!"

Feng Wu took the silver and nodded. "I won't lend Uncle Mingjiang any silver even if I have to watch you die."

The old lady was furious.

Meanwhile, Gao Mingjiang's brothers were trying to talk Gao Mingjiang out of it. "Mingjiang, look, hasn't Mom given the money back to the girl? Come down here."

The brothers had never been so friendly before, but now, they were helping Gao Mingjiang off the carriage.
