Yang Xiaocui struggled and widened her eyes; sure enough, Yang Daniu was coming for her.
Yang Daniu covered Yang Xiaocui’s mouth with his hand to prevent her from making a sound, quickly whispering, "Don’t make a noise, brother here is just a bit short on cash lately, so I’m looking for my sister to get so silver. Don’t worry, not much, just five taels will do. Sa old rule, et on the mountain. I know it’s hard for you to get silver, so let’s make it seven days later, see how considerate your brother is."
Yang Xiaocui initially struggled but eventually nodded. Seeing this, Yang Daniu continued, "Don’t worry, your secret is safe with brother. Rember to be on ti."
After saying this, Yang Daniu released Yang Xiaocui’s mouth and directly walked out of the kitchen.
Leaving Yang Xiaocui standing there in a daze.
Five taels of silver, where could she get it from?
All the previous tis she had tried so hard; she feared she wouldn’t be able to manage it again.
And even if she gave it this ti, what about next ti?
This Yang Daniu was completely untrustworthy, he clearly promised her last ti, and now he’s going back on his word.
She felt she might be threatened for a lifeti.
If she married into the Yang Family, it might be better, perhaps she could have a chance to touch so silver.
But now she was still with her mother, and she couldn’t even lay a finger on any silver.
Thinking about being threatened for a lifeti, her body couldn’t help but tremble. She felt things couldn’t go on like this.
Standing at the kitchen door, she glared angrily at Yang Daniu, but there was nothing she could do.
"Daniu, drank the water? Here, this is the shovel you wanted."
"Alright, thank you, aunt. I don’t know how many days this shovel will last, I’ll return it after I finish using it."
"Okay, return it whenever you can, go ahead and use it."
Hearing this, Yang Xiaocui couldn’t help but shiver again. When he returned the shovel, would he co looking for her again?
She was particularly sensitive now, scared to death.
Yang Daniu left Yang Xiaocui’s courtyard, and as he was leaving, he glanced next door with a peculiar smile, which Yang Xiaocui caught sight of.
This also led Yang Xiaocui to notice Li Chuntao in the next courtyard.
This Li Chuntao always sat in the courtyard every day, who knew what was so good about sitting in the courtyard, especially since it was getting cold, and she didn’t even go inside.
But this Li Chuntao was easy to deal with, she was a fool. If she cried a few tis, Li Chuntao would take out sothing for her. If she went and cried again, she might be able to handle Yang Daniu this ti.
Moreover, she thought of a way that wouldn’t let her be threatened for a lifeti, but if she only talked about the plan this ti without bringing silver, Yang Daniu probably wouldn’t let it slide. She figured she should first find a way to get five taels of silver.
Thinking of this, she decided to first go and plead with Li Chuntao.
Li Chuntao in the courtyard still didn’t know that Yang Xiaocui was already eyeing the silver in her hands. At the mont, her attention was entirely on finding out what the relationship between that man and Yang Xiaocui was.
Looking at them repeatedly, she couldn’t see anything unusual, the man was just there to borrow sothing, after all.
From the conversation, it was clear that the man was from this village. Though nothing was discovered this ti, there would be other chances to understand it in the future.
Although nothing unusual was seen, the man did go to the kitchen, precisely where Yang Xiaocui was.
So what was going on between them still required observation.
Only, that man’s gaze toward her was not friendly.
However, she couldn’t care about that at the mont, anyway, she didn’t know him.
Seeing that everyone had left, Li Chuntao got up and returned indoors.
