Chapter 156: More Unreasonable

There is no way we’ll give her a share of our money! Even if my mother comes, she will not give it to her.

“My mother had to hurry to the village entrance to wait for them. Aunt Kang, why don’t you come along?” he suggested.

Aunt Kang fell silent immediately.

She did not dare to go. Her husband, who was biased toward An Jiuyue only, would chase her out if she did. She did not want to risk it!

“There’s no need for me to go. You guys should hurry up and settle this matter. Remember to give me what’s mine. I won’t tolerate those who like to play dirty.”

Although she did not dare to go to the village entrance, she did not intend to let her money go.

“This is not over yet. If An Jiuyue refuses to give you her son, whoever receives the money will have to spit it back out.

“You might even have to cough up more money! Ministry Councilor He is not easily fooled.”

Without waiting for An Da to respond, she snatched the fishes and wild vegetables from his hands and returned to her courtyard.

“Well…” An Da was dumbfounded.

I’ve seen unreasonable people, but I’ve never met anyone more unreasonable than her.

Is Aunt Kang not afraid that the Chief will find out about this and chase her out? Did she think this through to threaten us like that?

There was no way Aunt Kang did not think this through. However, nothing else mattered more to her than money.

Besides, she was certain Old An’s family would not dare to do anything. After all, this was a very disgraceful matter. They would not be allowed to stay in the An Clan Village if the Chief and the Junior Officer found out.

Therefore, she had nothing to be afraid of. She would be more unreasonable than any other person. This was the only way to get the money!

Money was more reliable than husbands and sons in this day and age!

…

Soon, Aunt Wang arrived at the village entrance and met with Ministry Councilor He and his men.

“Oh? Ministry Councilor He, why are you here personally? You could’ve sent your butler on your behalf” Aunt Wang smiled so wide that her eyes narrowed to slits.

She did not understand what An Jiuyue’s son had done to attract Ministry Councilor He.

He also had sons. In fact, he had two sons and even had grandchildren. She saw that they were quite fair and chubby yesterday.

She did not know why he wanted to buy An Jiuyue’s son.

“You must be tired from walking all the way here. Do you want to have some tea at my house? You can rest your feet first,” she offered fawningly.

Unexpectedly, Ministry Councilor He glared at her.

“Cut the crap and bring me to the child!”

He was in a rush. He heard that An Jiuyue cared a lot about her two sons and was sure she would not be able to escape from him as long as he had one of them.

“Okay, okay, let’s go there now.”

Since Aunt Wang could not invite him to her house, she had no choice but to accede to him and take him up the mountain.

She was certain no one was guarding the village entrance because it was early and time for a shift change. Hence, she dared to bring them up the mountain brazenly.

However, Aunt Wang was unaware that the villagers had grown warier of outsiders as the epidemic outside was worsening.
