82 Chapter 82: Denouncing Madam Zhang Angrily

When they entered the hall, Qin Dazhuang enthusiastically pulled Qin Xiaoyao to sit next to him.

“Quick, sit down and eat!”

Qin Xiaoyao agreed with a smile and sat down in the seat to Qin Dazhuang’s right.

Next, everyone else took their seats.

Qin Dazhuang naturally had to sit in the main seat, and he had to sit alone. That meant that inevitably there had to be a female family member sitting next to Qin Xiaoyao.

None of the three women was willing.

In the end, Qin Erhu’s wife didn’t manage to get a seat with Madam Zhang and could only sit next to Qin Xiaoyao.

Qin Dazhuang frowned when he saw her aggrieved look.

Just as he was about to say something, Qin Dahu and Qin Erhu came in.

And they brought the gifts that Qin Xiaoyao had bought.

There were sweets, cakes, cloth, and quite a fair bit of meat.

The three women were quite shocked to see this.

“Little Sister, you’re spending too much money. These are all precious things and so expensive!” Qin Erhu deliberately raised his voice.

Just as Qin Xiaoyao was about to say something, Madam Zhang couldn’t hold back her tongue again.

“What’s expensive? Isn’t it still our money? You have the money to buy these things for show, but you don’t have the money to return to your father?”

Qin Dazhuang frowned instantly.

“Aren’t you delivering goods to Fortune Mansion and selling straw sandals now? Everyone says you’ve made a lot of money.”

“Since you’ve earned money, your life must be very comfortable. Why aren’t you paying back the money? Do you still want to swallow the family’s silver like before?” Madam Zhang said sharply.

She just didn’t like this girl. In fact, it wasn’t just plain dislike. She absolutely loathed her!

Ever since she married into the Qin family, she had had enough! Now that she was pregnant, she didn’t want to and wasn’t willing to endure it anymore!

She wanted to see if Qin Dazhuang would ignore her and her son for his little girl.

Qin Xiaoyao was furious, but she forcefully suppressed the emotional influence of her predecessor and didn’t say a word.

Bang! Qin Dazhuang couldn’t bear it anymore and slammed his palm on the table.

That slam frightened Madam Zhang until her whole body shook in fear.

Seeing that Qin Dazhuang was about to step forward, Qin Dahu quickly pulled his father back.

At this point, Madam Zhang’s face was pale with fear, and she began to cry loudly.

“Qin Dazhuang, you… you’re going to hit me! You actually want to hit me again for this girl?”

“I… I’m pregnant with your child!” Madam Zhang wailed.

She felt she had been wronged and was very angry.

Qin Dazhuang was even angrier when he heard this. “You shut up!” He reprimanded.

“Why should I shut up? Qin Dazhuang, if you have the ability, then kill me today! If you kill me, your son will be buried with me!” As she spoke, Madam Zhang stuck out her belly. She looked as if she was going to fight to the death.

Qin Dazhuang became even angrier when he heard this.

He was even more determined to teach Madam Zhang a lesson.

Seeing that Qin Dahu almost couldn’t hold back their father, Qin Xiaoyao finally stood up and held onto Qin Dazhuang.

“That’s enough,” Qin Xiaoyao shouted in a low voice, and Qin Dazhuang was restrained by Qin Xiaoyao. Then, she pressed Qin Dazhuang back onto the seat.

Qin Dazhuang tried to struggle, but he found that he couldn’t break free from his daughter’s grip.

When he saw his daughter’s reaction, he also quickly calmed down and eventually stopped struggling.

Qin Xiaoyao heaved a sigh of relief when she saw that her father had quieted down.

She then turned around and looked at the still-wailing Madam Zhang.

Then, she took out the money bag she had prepared in advance and threw it in front of Madam Zhang.

“I’ve come here this time to return the five taels of silver.”

“Please check and see if the sum is correct,” she said in a low voice.

Madam Zhang was stunned. For a moment, she even forgot to sob.

Then, without even looking at Qin Xiaoyao, she reached out and took the money bag.

Then, she opened the money bag in front of everyone.

When she found that there were indeed five taels of silver inside, she was a little surprised.

Seeing this, Qin Xiaoyao continued, “As for the earlier eighty taels of silver…”

Everyone’s hearts sank when they heard this.

Qin Xiaoyao’s gaze swept across everyone’s faces. “It was indeed my negligence. I was deceived.”

“But when I got married, Father didn’t give me any dowry. Moreover, he had already told me that those silver would be my dowry.”

“So, that money is already mine. None of you have the right to criticize me again for these eighty taels!” Qin Xiaoyao continued.

“Moreover, before my mother died, the dowry she saved for me was worth more than sixty taels! Before I got married, father also said that if I got married, he would give me an extra twenty taels!”

“So, if you really add them all up, my dowry is actually more than just eighty taels!”

It was also because her predecessor was too fat that her parents were worried that she would not be able to get married, so they had prepared such a princely sum.

...

It was a pity that all the money had been swindled away in the end.

Everyone was shocked and looked at Qin Dazhuang.

Then, they saw Qin Dazhuang nod his head.

That was indeed the case.

During this period of time, he had actually regretted not giving his daughter a dowry.

It was also because of this reason that he kept thinking of ways to help his daughter.

Unfortunately, his daughter did not appreciate it.

Qin Xiaoyao glanced at Qin Dazhuang and continued, “So, those eighty taels of silver were originally mine! It has nothing to do with the Qin family or all of you.”

As she spoke, Qin Xiaoyao looked at Madam Zhang.

Madam Zhang’s face instantly turned ashen white.

“In the past, I was insensible and made things difficult for you and my two sisters-in-law,” Qin Xiaoyao continued.

...

The three women were stunned.

The two daughters-in-law of the Qin family lowered their heads, not daring to look at Qin Xiaoyao, whose expression was very normal.

Only Madam Zhang’s face was filled with fear.

“But it’s not completely without reason, especially with regard to you,” Qin Xiaoyao told her directly.

Madam Zhang’s heart trembled. She wanted to retort, but she didn’t even dare to raise her head.

“It’s true that my father is ten years older than you, and he’s marrying you as his second wife, and you suffered much for it.”

“But is that really suffering?” Qin Xiaoyao said icily, voicing out what her predecessor wanted to say.

“At that time, your family wanted to sell you in exchange for money to support your younger brother.”

“Without my father’s ten taels of silver to marry you, do you think you would have a good ending?”

Madam Zhang’s body swayed, and she almost lost her balance.

Seeing this, Qin Xiaoyao’s lips curled up into a sarcastic smile.

“A betrothal gift of ten taels of silver is more than enough for a farmer to marry a young, beautiful maiden, let alone a widow.”

Take the example of Zhang Mazi. He only offered a betrothal gift of ten taels of silver and was able to secure Wang Xiaomei for his retarded son.

“What advantage do you have? It’s just that my father cherished you!”

As soon as these words came out, everyone looked at Madam Zhang.

Qin Dazhuang frowned and wanted to stop his daughter from continuing.

However, he decided to endure it and didn’t speak eventually.

“On one hand, you despise my father. On the other hand, you’re making use of his love for you to cause trouble at home.”

“Do you think you’re the matriarch of the Qin family just because you married into the Qin family?”

“Haha! It’s a pity that you’ve overestimated yourself. My father indulges you, but I won’t.” Qin Xiaoyao said in a low voice.

Qin Xiaoyao continued, ignoring Madam Zhang’s pale face.

“Previously, I heard that you were pregnant. I originally thought that for my father’s sake, I would just endure it and let it go.”

“But since something like this has happened today, then I’ll make things clear.”
