Ms. Fang glanced at him and exchanged a few words.
But she did not mention that Ms. Zhang had been here.
Eldest Uncle rubbed his hands. “How can a nice family become like this? Poor children, Ms. Zhang is so confused!”
Ms. Fang laughed. “True!”
Eldest Uncle thought of Ms. Zhang’s family and was even more confused. “I don’t think her family is able to offer this much money.”
Ms. Fang replied. “Then, we will see if they love this daughter of theirs!”
Eldest Uncle sighed and went to check how it was going on at the second section of the family.
He even asked Ms. Fang to go with him, but she promptly turned that offer down.
She was not interested at all.
By the evening, Ms. Zhang returned with Shao Erlang in distress.
She was empty-handed.
The parents of hers would never be so simple-minded, when they taught their three daughters to help their youngest brother.
Ms. Zhang got scolded thoroughly when she asked them for three liang.
They had no money to offer.
Even Shao Erlang was scolded by his in-laws.
They kept saying that their only son was precious and their grandson was going to be born. As the daughter of the family, she should offer a hand too.
They would never give the money back. What was the Shao Family thinking?
As they returned home, Eldest Uncle was still at the residence of the second section of the family.
Ms. Niu understood clearly what happened, judging from how Ms. Zhang and Shao Erlang looked.
Her face sank and she asked them with clenched teeth. “Where is the money?
Nothing was returned?”
Ms. Niu got so annoyed as she was reminded of the money Ms. Zhang stole.
She pointed at Ms. Zhang and said, “What are you doing here since you can’t get the money? Did they not accept your request? It seems that they don’t like you either.”
Ms. Zhang covered her face with her hands, begging. “Mom, please, I don’t dare to do that ever again…”
Ms. Zhang had never expected that Ms. Niu would get so angry this time. She felt kind of regretful.
But how her parents and brother reacted disheartened her as well.
Yet she was more scared right now, fearing that Ms. Niu would really drive her out.
“What are you crying for?” Ms. Niu shouted and pushed Ms. Zhang out of the house. “Just get out of here, go back to your own home. I am not joking with you!”
Shao Erlang could not stand it any more and defended his wife. “Mom, please…”
“Just shut up!” Ms. Niu snapped angrily. “We can’t have a thief at home! Your brother and Meiling are about to find a marriage soon, and the dowry, and wedding gifts are not yet settled. She stole our money and you are still defending her! ”
Chaos arose in the family.
Eldest Uncle rushed back home and told Ms. Fang, “Loan five liang to my brother’s family. They will return it soon.”
“It has something to do with Silang and Meiling. We are not joking here. Please, loan the money to them!”
Ms. Niu cursed at Ms. Zhang and Shao Erlang, then she started to cry about how difficult it was to establish the marriage for the two children. Second Uncle was helping along too.
In this way, the Eldest Uncle got involved.
Ms. Fang laughed. “Of course, no one is joking. So, did Ms. Zhang not get any money from her family?”
Eldest Uncle frowned. “You know pretty well what they are like!”
“Yes.” Ms. Fang sneered. “The Zhang Familv are shameless DeoDle. and thev deserve to get nothing.. We are good people and hence, we are cleaning up for them, is it?”
