Chapter 941 - 943: Could You Lend Our Family Another Thirty Taels?
Old An Head was so infuriated by Old Zheng Head’s arrogant attitude that he was trembling slightly, his eyes filled with resentment, wanting to say something but unable to.
The other members of the An Family also glared angrily at Old Zheng Head’s group, their hearts filled with rage, as the two sides faced off like this.
Seeing the demeanor of this family, Old Zheng Head’s lips curled slightly as he sneered, "Go, get me a chair. I’ll sit in the courtyard and wait."
The people brought by Old Zheng Head didn’t care whether the An Family agreed or not and went to the kitchen to fetch a chair for Old Zheng Head.
After Old Zheng Head sat down, he scornfully said, "Old An Head, time is running out. Is it fifty pieces of silver, or handing over An’an? Don’t delay my son’s marriage ceremony."
His calm and collected appearance, however, seemed very much like a rogue.
The courtyard, though crowded, was unusually quiet, everyone too scared to even breathe due to Old Zheng Head’s rogue behavior, while also feeling anxious over the An Family’s predicament.
The situation in the courtyard was entirely audible inside the house. An’an never expected the Zheng Family to shamelessly demand fifty pieces of silver?
But that’s fifty pieces of silver! How could their family possibly come up with that?
Would she have to ask this sister in front of her for it? But with so much silver, she really could not bring herself to ask anymore.
If she didn’t marry into the Zheng Family today, the situation might not end well.
Feeling somewhat resigned, she wanted to step outside, but Xiaoxiao stopped her, "An’an, where are you going?"
"Sister, I..."
Seeing An’an’s pitiful appearance, Xiaoxiao shook her head, "Don’t go out, listen to me, let’s wait and see what happens."
The other party didn’t directly rush in to seize anyone but sat there waiting, clearly having calculated that the An Family couldn’t come up with the money, a veiled insult towards the An Family.
However, they miscalculated one thing, which was the arrival of their family trio. How things will ultimately unfold, remains uncertain.
At this moment, An’an had no more ideas and had to follow Xiaoxiao’s advice, continuing to wait inside.
Outside
Old An Head was internally struggling with thoughts—what to do? That’s fifty pieces of silver? The only ones possibly able to provide it now were the newly arrived family trio, but he couldn’t bear to ask. If he could help that family trio, he would, but the reality was that their family couldn’t help them at all.
At this point, An Family’s Boss, An Quan, was so anxious that his eyes were red. If this went on, his younger sister would be taken away again, how could he be contented?
Thus, in the silent courtyard, An Quan was the first to speak, addressing Yang Ming in the courtyard, his tone very humble, completely losing the initial cold attitude he had towards Yang Ming, "First Brother, could you lend our family thirty pieces of silver again? Our family will definitely work like oxen and horses to pay back this silver."
"Boss." Hearing An Quan’s words, Old An Head shouted with pain.
"Father, we have no other way now. Without fifty pieces of silver, my sister will be taken away. My sister absolutely cannot marry into Old Zheng Family; if she does, her life will be ruined."
She is the only sister he has, her entire life has already gone awry, this cannot be ruined.
Old An Head sighed repeatedly, now the only hope was on this family trio, the An Family helplessly stared at Yang Ming, hoping that Yang Ming would generously lend a hand to help them at this moment.
