Chapter 463 Don’t be so stingy!
Chen Xiang was so angry that his face turned red. He stamped his feet on the ground and shouted loudly:
"What are you doing? We've been raising these chickens for a long time.
It's specially made to nourish the young master! Let me go now!"
Lin Ze and Lin Han acted as if they didn't hear anything and turned a deaf ear.
Lin Ze pulled out a knife from his waist, raised his hand and slashed the chicken's neck in an instant.
Blood gushed out and splattered everywhere. The hen flapped its wings a few times and then became motionless.
Chen Xiangqi trembled all over and his lips couldn't help but tremble.
Bai Qian frowned and asked, "What are you guys planning to do?"
Old Lady Lin was all smiles. Seeing Bai Qian coming back, she hurried over to greet her and said warmly:
"Hey, Qianqian is back! In just a few days, you've already bought a property in this prosperous Bianjing.
This house is truly magnificent and makes people happy just by looking at it.”
The smile seemed kind, but it concealed some unknown calculations.
Bai Qian looked indifferent, she just glanced at them lightly, with a hint of alienation in her tone:
“I didn’t buy this house, it belongs to my mother’s family.
What on earth do you want to do by suddenly coming here?"
Old Mrs. Lin still smiled apologetically, rubbed her hands, and said in a flattering way:
"We have nowhere to go!
We'd like to stay here for a while, so please be kind and take us in!"
Bai Qian looked at them, a hint of displeasure flashing in her eyes, and retorted, "This house is the dowry my parents gave me. How can you live in it?"
Lin Dasheng stepped forward with a seemingly gentle smile on his face and persuaded:
"What's the harm in staying here? This big house has plenty of rooms. It would be too empty and lonely for just the two of us with a child.
They are here, and it’s so lively and wonderful.”
Bai Qian sneered, her voice full of sarcasm:
"Lively? If you want it lively, buy a house for them with your own money. Why are they occupying my place?
If someone from my family comes, how will I explain it?"
Lin Dasheng frowned slightly, a hint of impatience on his face, but he still patiently coaxed:
"Don't be so stingy!
Just let them stay for a while and leave after a while. It won’t be a problem for too long.”
He tried to comfort Bai Qian, but there was a sense of matter-of-factness in his tone.
Bai Qian sneered, and her emotions finally exploded:
"You are quite generous. You spent over 50,000 taels of silver buying things for Zhao Qiaoniang yesterday.
If you have that much money, why don't you spend it on your family?"
When Sun Mei heard this, her eyes widened instantly, her face full of disbelief, and she shouted at the top of her voice:
"What? More than 50,000 taels of silver?
"Second uncle, are you crazy? Go and get the money back!"
Old Lady Lin was furious. She reached out and grabbed Lin Dasheng's ear, twisted it hard, and cursed loudly:
"Lin Dasheng, is there water in your brain?
Let’s go ask Zhao Qiaoniang to return the money now so we can buy a bigger house!”
Lin Dasheng covered his ears and said:
"Do you think I don't want it? But I don't want to save face, right?
"I said it in front of so many people yesterday, but I didn't expect them to actually ask me to buy anything, did I?"
Old Mrs. Lin said angrily, "How dare that damn woman ask for something? Go and get the money back now. I don't care what method you use..."
Lin Dasheng shouted, "Alright, I'll go make a scene and let everyone in Bianjing know about it. Now you'll be happy, right?"
He stared at Bai Qian intently. Bai Qian wiped her tears and said:
"Lin Dasheng, why did you become like this?
Since you don't want to stay at home, take them out now. This is my home and you are not welcome."
Lin Dachang quickly advised:
"Sister-in-law, you're joking. We're all family, so why should we differentiate between each other?
I also have something to tell you. Do you know the house where Zhao Qiaoniang lives now?"
Bai Qian said calmly, "I went to that house today. I've been asking around for a long time and I heard they live there now."
Lin Dachang asked mysteriously, "Then do you know who owns this house now?"
Everyone shook their heads, and he said slowly:
“The name of this house is written in Lin Wanwan’s name.
Hey! I really didn’t expect that they would give the house to Lin Wanwan. Isn’t that just a child?
Old Lady Lin widened her eyes and said:
"What? You said the name written on that house is a money-losing name?
This family is really interesting. They really treat the money-losing goods as treasures.
If the money-loser gets married in the future, won't the house be her dowry? "
Old Man Lin sat on the armchair, smoking his pipe:
"What can those women do? What solutions can they come up with?
I think we have to get that house back, we have to find a way to get it back, otherwise that cheap guy will get it for free."
Sun Mei couldn't wait to agree:
"That's right! We have to come back. We have so many children in our family.
It would be perfect for me to live in such a big house in the future. I heard that their house is very magnificent."
Hearing their conversation, Bai Qian let out a mocking sneer:
“Don’t think it’s that simple.
They are not stupid, how could they give us such a nice house?"
When Sun Mei heard Bai Qian's words, her eyes rolled around, and she looked at Bai Qian with a calculating look on her face and said:
“Doesn’t that mean they owe you money now?
You can certainly come and ask for the house, are they trying to evade payment?"
Bai Qian raised her eyes and glanced at everyone. With a somewhat complacent look on her face, she spoke slowly:
"How about this! I'll go back to the Bai clan, and then the head of the Bai clan will take me to ask for the house back. That way, it will appear that I'm making a desperate bet.
Our Bai family is not an ordinary family. We are one of the best in Bianjing. If they go with us, they will definitely kneel down and beg us."
Old Mrs. Lin sat aside and praised:
“The Bai family is indeed extraordinary, I didn’t expect your family to be so powerful.
Qianqian, you are the only one in our family who is so promising! "
When Lin Dachang heard this, he hurried forward with a flattering smile on his face:
"That's right, Bai Qian, I'm going to take the exam for the scholar degree soon.
Could you please give me some guidance? I want to study in your Bai family's school."
He rubbed his hands together, his eyes full of anticipation.
Bai Qian glanced at him, her expression somewhat perfunctory:
“It’s hard to say, as those of us in office are all very busy.
I'm busy with government affairs every day, so I don't have time to care about you!"
Hearing this, the smile on Lin Dachang's face froze instantly, and he looked a little embarrassed.
Seeing this, Sun Mei quickly pulled Bai Qian aside and whispered:
"Bai Qian! Can you please see if Lin Ze and Lin Han can enter your Bai Family Academy?
They are both very smart and will definitely have great futures if they enter your school."
