<h4>Chapter 1757: She Thought That She Had Plenty of Money</h4>
After Bai Yiqiao’s disturbance, the rtionship between the Chen family and the Fang family dropped to a freezing point. The Chen family had lost one hundred taels while the Fang family lost seventy taels.
As soon as the government officials left, the two families also turned around and left.
Bai Yiqiao lowered her head as she followed Fang Yong. From time to time, she would raise her head to look at Fang Yong’s heroic figure. She wanted to talk to him, but his heavy aura made Bai Yiqiao afraid to speak.
She regretted her actions in her heart. If she had known earlier, she wouldn’t have opened her mouth.
She thought that she had plenty of money. If the Chen family couldn’t produce the money from selling ginseng, they would be in a lot of trouble.
It was nothing much for her to lose a hundred taels. She could earn it all back in half a month or a month. However, if the Chen family did not have this money, it would be hard to imagine what would happen next.
Before doing anything, Bai Yiqiao would think things through clearly. But she really hated Chen Ermei. Whenever she saw Chen Ermei, it felt like a thousand ants were biting her.
Fang Yong was not a narrow-minded man. However, now he wasn’t saying a single word to her. He was obviously angry.
Bai Yiqiao was anxious, and tears came streaming down her eyes.
Hearing the sobs from behind, Fang Yong stopped in his tracks. He turned his head and looked at Bai Yiqiao helplessly. “You even started crying?”
When she saw that Fang Yong was paying attention to her again, she felt even more aggrieved and cried more intensely. She wanted to vent all the emotions she had umted in her heart.
Fang Yong sighed and looked at Bai Yiqiao, who was crying like a child. “If you’re nning to do anything again in the future, please discuss with me in advance so that I can be prepared. What you did today was not proper. We gave the government seventy taels for nothing and also worsened the rtionship between the two families.”
“I know I was wrong. Fang Yong, please forgive me. I’ll find a way to make up for the taels,” said Bai Yiqiao while wiping away her tears.
Fang Yong sighed. “The money is just a small matter.”
Bai Yiqiao smiled through her tears. She stretched out her hand to pull Fang Yong’s clothes, and the husband and wife returned home.
“That Bai Yiqiao looks so beautiful and refined, but I didn’t expect her to be so vicious.” On the other side, Chen Li was ring up in anger as soon as he got home.
Lady Li also said, “Who would’ve thought that she was such a person? Last time, she stirred up trouble by saying Ermei and Li Gouzi had a love affair. What a wicked heart.”
Ning Shu just sipped from a ss of water without speaking.
“It was so much silver, an entire hundred taels!” Chen Li’s face was filled with distress.
“Just take it as spending money to avoid disasters.” Father Chen said, “To be honest, having so much money at home made me really uneasy.”
The wealth was gone, but at least the people remained.
Ning Shu also thought the same. Since the government officials knew about the matter, they would definitely not be able to keep the money. Also, the officials must be fed until they were satisfied. They could not be sent away with just ten or twenty taels.
If they hadn’t handed over the money, there would have been a loss of both life and property. The government officials would havee to their house to search for money, and they would also lose their food. At that point, they would really not have been able to survive.
Themon people could not fight with the government. There were only two government officials. It wasn’t that the people in the vige couldn’t beat them up with their numbers. What they really feared was the court.
After losing the money, other people wouldn’t think about it either. At the vige entrance earlier, the vigers’ eyes had gone red because of greed.
So, the money was kept in their hands for a moment before flowing away, but fortunately, there was still some left. It couldst them for a while.
“That Fang Yong’s wife!” When Father Chen spoke of Bai Yiqiao, his expression was filled with contempt. “Don’t interact with that family in the future. You can see a person’s moral quality during critical moments.”
Ning Shu pursed her lips. Bai Yiqiao had wanted to make the Chen family go bankrupt, so she would make Bai Yiqiao have a taste of going bankrupt.
In the middle of the night, Ning Shu arrived at Li Gouzi’s house. Li Gouzi was still not at home. The whole ce was in dpidated condition andcked any traces that a person was living there.
