“20 taels? Why don’t you just rob someone?” Before Qin Dazhuang could say anything, Qin Dahu had already blurted out.
When he saw this, Zhang Ershui did not get angry. Instead, he smiled wickedly.
Then, he held up both arms and cupped them.
“Rob? The great general has given the order that no one is allowed to rob the commoners.
“Qin Dahu, are you trying to slander my three brothers by saying this?” At this point, Zhang Ershui’s voice became a bit sharp.
When the three mountain bandits heard their names mentioned, they immediately looked at the Qin family’s father and sons trio with hostility.
The Qin family’s father and sons appeared fearful.
It wasn’t that they didn’t think they were a match for the other party. Due to the other party’s status, their family couldn’t afford to offend them.
Qin Dazhuang grabbed his eldest son again and smiled apologetically at the mountain bandit named “Qiang Zi.”
“Officer, please don’t misunderstand. Our family doesn’t have that intention.”
“Then what do you guys mean?” Qiang Zi said with displeasure.
When he saw that Qin Dazhuang was stumped by Qiang Zi’s words, Zhang Ershui’s eyes turned one round.
“These three brothers of mine are busy with official business. Their time is precious.
“Brother-in-law, you seem so uncooperative. Are you not even extending courtesy to my three brothers?”
Sure enough, as soon as he said this, the three mountain bandits’ expressions turned even more unpleasant.
They all looked at Qin Dazhuang with displeasure.
Qin Dazhuang’s expression changed again.
“I didn’t mean it that way, officers. I… really didn’t mean it that way!” He hurriedly cupped his fists and said in apology.
“Hmph! If you didn’t have that intention, then go and bring me the money at once! What a waste of time!” Qiang Zi said outright.
A look of inner struggle flashed across Qin Dazhuang’s face.
He finally turned around and told Qin Erhu to go in and get the money.
They had no choice but to give them the money. Their family couldn’t afford to offend these demons of pestilence.
He could only send them away first, and after they left, they could discuss how to deal with them next time.
“Father…” Not surprisingly, Qin Erhu didn’t agree with his father.
“Go!” Qin Dazhuang said in a low voice.
Qin Erhu didn’t insist anymore.
He glared at Zhang Ershui, who was looking at him smugly, gave a furious snort, and walked off.
Zhang Ershui laughed very gleefully.
As the wheel of fortune continued on its inexorable cycle, things were finally looking up for him.
As long as Zhang Ershui lived, the whole Qin family would not have an easy time.
Qin Erhu went back to his room to look for his wife and his elder sister-in-law to pool the silver.
In the end, he only managed to gather 15 taels.
Fortunately, Qin Xiaoyao had brought money with her, which helped him gather 20 taels of silver.
Qin Erhu looked angry and frustrated.
“When Zhang Ershui brought those three mountain bandits to our house, I guess many people saw them,” Qin Xiaoyao reminded him.
“We can’t deal with this matter rashly.”
When she saw her second brother looking at her, Qin Xiaoyao continued, “Father’s way of handling things is correct. Let’s get rid of these people first, and then we’ll think of a long-term plan later.”
Qin Erhu felt somewhat enlightened. After hearing his younger sister’s words, he finally felt better.
He nodded at Qin Xiaoyao.
After that, he went to deliver the silver to Zhang Ershui and the others.
Zhang Ershui and the others watched Qin Erhu bring out the silver.
And the bits and pieces added up to 20 taels. All of them were extremely smug.
“I knew my brother-in-law has a rich family!”
“Alright. Since it’s not convenient for me to visit my nephew this time, I won’t bother you any longer.”
“I’ll come back in two days!” Zhang Ershui said with a smug look.
How could 20 taels of silver be enough?
If the Qin family could take out 20 taels for the first time, they would be able to take out the same amount for the second time, the third time…
At any rate, the Qin family owed him this!
“You…” Qin Dahu couldn’t hold it in anymore. He wanted to rush up and beat Zhang Ershui up.
However, he was stopped by Qin Dazhuang again.
Facing the ferocious gazes of the mountain bandits, Qin Dazhuang apologized again and even personally sent them out.
After everyone had left the compound and gone far away, Qin Dazhuang closed the door and walked back.
Qin Dazhuang sighed when he saw his eldest son looking at him angrily.
“Follow me.” After saying that, he walked towards the hall.
Qin Erhu tugged at his big brother and dragged him along with him.
Soon, Qin Xiaoyao and the Qin family’s father and sons sat down at the table once more.
However, the current atmosphere was completely different from before.
The father and sons all looked very troubled and kept their heads lowered.
When she saw that the three of them had no intention of speaking first, Qin Xiaoyao finally took the initiative to speak.
“Zhang Ershui and the Zhang family mustn’t be allowed to live.”
As soon as she said this, the father and sons trio were stupefied.
Then, they all raised their heads and looked at Qin Xiaoyao collectively.
Qin Dazhuang opened his mouth a few times, but in the end, he didn’t say anything.
Before Zhang Ershui left, he left a message saying that he would be back in a few days.
This guy was a malignant tumor, and he had become even more toxic than before.
If they didn’t get rid of him, the Qin family might really be destroyed by him.
After a long while, Qin Dazhuang finally spoke, “Mm-hmm.”
Qin Dahu and Qin Erhu immediately turned to look at their father when they heard him.
They were all suspecting whether they were hallucinating.
However, the words Qin Dazhuang said next left no doubt in their minds.
“I’ll go to the Zhang family’s village tomorrow night.”
Qin Dahu and Qin Erhu’s hearts skipped a beat.
Their father wanted to go to the Zhang family’s village. What was he going to do? Could it be…
“Father…” Qin Dahu gulped nervously and called out to his father anxiously.
Qin Erhu also looked at his father apprehensively.
“I… I’ll go with you, Father,” he stammered.
If his father really wanted to go and silence that family, how could he do it alone when there were so many people in the Zhang family?
“I’ll go too!” Qin Dahu glanced at his second brother and quickly added.
That bastard Zhang Ershui had actually brought people to his house to threaten his family.
If he didn’t kill Zhang Ershui, he wouldn’t be able to give vent to his anger.
As for the other members of the Zhang family, none of them were good people. It was better to eliminate them together.
Qin Dazhuang frowned.
Qin Xiaoyao, on the other hand, was a little surprised.
Her father and two elder brothers were quite tenacious indeed.
“You guys… What are you thinking?” Suddenly, Qin Xiaoyao asked with a smile.
Her words instantly attracted the gazes of the father and sons trio.
“Younger Sis, what you mean is…” Qin Dahu was at a loss for words.
Qin Xiaoyao chuckled.
“Yes. But it’s not what you guys think.”
The father and sons trio were very puzzled.
Only then did Qin Xiaoyao say, “The mountain bandits have entered the town, and it’s very chaotic outside right now. There are many desperate people.
“What I meant was to spend money and hire someone to do it.”
When she saw the hesitation on the faces of the three, Qin Xiaoyao continued, “If we want to do it, we have to be ruthless.
“Father, do you think I don’t know your character?
“With regard to the Zhang brothers and the two elders of the Zhang family, I have no doubt that you’re capable of doing it.
“But how about Zhang Dashui’s wife and that kid in his family? Can you really bear to show them no mercy?”
If they were not merciless, they might get exposed and leave behind the seeds of future trouble.
In the current situation, it might not land them in any trouble.
However, what about after peace was restored to Mountain Spring Town? Once the truth was revealed, the Qin family would be finished at that point.
When Qin Xiaoyao said that she would hire someone to do it, it wasn’t really the case. Instead, she would do it herself.
After all, no one was more reliable and more efficient than her..
