"So you old cow, also dare to set your sights on , you wish."
"As for your tool of a daughter, I’ve been done with her for a long ti, and you still expect to threaten with her? Ridiculous."
None of them spoke, and soon, the boatman Wang Goudan had ferried them across the crossing.
"Aunt Yulian, what does the village chief taste like down there?"
After crossing the river, Wang Goudan asked with a sleazy smile.
Zhang Yulian was quite a shrew, and she scolded Wang Goudan imdiately.
"Go ho and ask your mother, and if you dare to ask again, I’ll tear your mouth apart."
Seeing Zhang Yulian’s fierce expression, Wang Goudan shivered in fright.
"Being old is one thing, but she’s still so fierce, nowhere near my Lanhua. I don’t know what the village chief was thinking. Ah, I wish I could get a taste of Aunt Lanhua so day."
He thought to himself, by now Zhang Xiaoshan had already driven Zhang Yulian and her son far away.
Sitting in the car, Zhang Yulian was green with envy.
At this mont, she regretted her past actions deeply. If it hadn’t been for her ddling back then, Zhang Xiaoshan and her daughter Wu Xiaoru would have married long ago, turning him into her family’s golden son-in-law, wouldn’t he?
Regrets were useless now.
They arrived at the county credit union just before noon.
Their director had his life saved by Zhang Xiaoshan last ti, and Li Biao was thus fired. The staff knew how formidable Zhang Xiaoshan was, and their attitude was exceptionally good.
Seeing this made Zhang Yulian and Wu Yong feel even worse.
"Mom, look, these arrogant staff always suck up to Zhang Xiaoshan, as if they know him personally."
"Imagine how much better it would have been if you hadn’t made things difficult for Zhang Xiaoshan back then," Wu Yong muttered.
Zhang Yulian watched Zhang Xiaoshan laughing and chatting with the credit union’s director, feeling an intense regret.
"What’s the use of saying this now? Besides, didn’t I betray him just to find you a wife?"
At this, Wu Yong fell silent.
"Alright, here’s the money for you."
Zhang Xiaoshan handed over a plastic bag containing 400,000 in cash to the Wu family.
"Why is it all in cash?"
Zhang Yulian said discontentedly.
"What if we get robbed with so much money?"
Zhang Xiaoshan threw the bag in front of the two.
"Take it or leave it, if you don’t want it, I’ll take it back."
"Forget it Mom, I’ve never seen so much cash before. It’s good enough. Little Yue’s parents will surely be satisfied seeing this much cash."
Wu Yong stared at the money in the bag, his eyes couldn’t look away.
"Alright, then let’s go directly to the city. Little Yue’s parents are already there, let’s not keep them waiting."
The two walked off with the money.
"Huh, go on then, go get deceived."
Zhang Xiaoshan watched their retreating figures and sneered.
He then walked out of the bank and made a voice call to Shi Yue.
"I’ve already given them the money." As soon as the call connected, Zhang Xiaoshan got straight to the point.
"That’s great, I’ve been anxiously needing the money. You’ve really helped a lot, I’ll make sure to thank you properly once this is over," Shi Yue said excitedly.
Zhang Xiaoshan wickedly said,
"How are you going to thank , huh? Last ti on the hill slope, I felt pretty good. How about giving another go?"
Hearing this, Shi Yue’s face turned red over the phone.
Fortunately, Zhang Xiaoshan couldn’t see her expression, or she would have wished for a hole to crawl into.
Sitting on her dorm bed, Shi Yue cautiously looked around, thankful that her roommates had gone for lunch.
"If you keep talking nonsense, I won’t talk to you anymore," she whispered reproachfully.
Zhang Xiaoshan, hearing this, felt even more teased.
It must be said, Shi Yue’s appearance and figure were quite fetching, especially since she was a dance major in college; her transitions were seamless and always involved complex moves, which made things quite enjoyable.
Recalling the last ti on the hill behind the hills still left him sowhat longing.
Suddenly rembering sothing, Shi Yue softly said to Zhang Xiaoshan, unnerved,
"Do you think 500,000 was too much?"
"Do you think they mortgaged their own house and land? Was I wrong to do this? Originally, I only wanted 200,000, but to deceive them out of 500,000, basically bankrupting them, what if I push them into desperation and they go to the police, blowing this whole thing out of proportion?"
Shi Yue was still a college student, so her concerns were normal.
If things spilled over to her college, it could get ssy.
Zhang Xiaoshan laughed,
"Don’t worry, they’re just illiterate bumpkins, can’t tell north from south in the city, let alone find the police. Besides, didn’t you say you used a fake identity with Wu Yong? He doesn’t know your real info. Reporting to the police would be pointless. And since I just gave them cash, find a secluded place to et them, with no caras around. Once you take the money and outright deny everything later, even if the police find you, it’ll be to no avail. Just relax."
"When dealing with scum like them, don’t be tender-hearted, scoundrels need to be ground down by scoundrels,"
Zhang Xiaoshan gritted his teeth while speaking.
He gave Wu Xiaoru’s family several chances, but they intensified their efforts, leaving him no choice but to take drastic asures.
"Alright, alright, are you implying I’m a scoundrel? What are you trying to say, calling that?" Shi Yue protested fiercely.
If Zhang Xiaoshan were in front of Shi Yue right then, he would have considered dealing with her on the spot.
"Isn’t that what I ant to say? Just a reminder, this money’s from my own sweat and blood. When you get it, send back 300,000 to , and keep the other 100,000 as your hard-earned money. I’m generous, aren’t I?"
"Alright, alright, I got it. I have so stuff to do here, I’m hanging up first."
The dorm door was pushed open, and Shi Yue quickly ended the call.
"I should find a place to have lunch first."
Feeling hungry, Zhang Xiaoshan left the bank and randomly stumbled upon a modest-sized al in a small restaurant on the street.
"Ah!"
Just as he entered, Zhang Xiaoshan saw Jiang Man and a long-haired, bare-faced beauty in a white blouse sitting together, laughing and waiting for their food.
"Hmm, the woman with Sister Man doesn’t look too bad."
Zhang Xiaoshan was instantly intrigued.
