Chapter 534: Wouldn’t Dare to Do That

The old lady was really crying. She wiped her tears and sat in the hall, complaining. She was so pitiful.

Xie Mangshan and Xie Congshan were the same. Their eyes were red.

Xie Niushan had never seen them like that. His heart felt like it was being scratched by a cat. He was even more curious now.

“Has the price of food out there increased? That shouldn’t be. Even if the price has increased, you would still afford to eat, right?” Xie Niushan sat there happily.

I had already given all of you my treasures, yet you still went back on your words!

Xie Niushan looked at his two brothers, feeling a little pleased in his heart.

“Niushan, you still don’t know? Earlier on, a Master performed divination for your Eldest Brother and said that there would be a calamity. In order to avoid the calamity, your Eldest Brother sent all the money everyone in our family possessed to you! Later on, he didn’t avoid the calamity and he was fined 500 taels of silver. Now, the family has 150 taels of silver in debt. The creditor comes to our house everyday. If you still don’t pay it back, we can only sell the daughters!” The old lady cried.

“You gave them to me?” Xie Niushan was stunned.

He really did not know about that.

“How much silver was it?” Xie Niushan asked curiously.

“The wealth adds up to nearly 10,000 taels of silver!” Xie Mangshan looked a lot more stunned.

Xie Niushan frowned. “My treasures are worth a lot of money. Is that all your family’s wealth adds up to? Who are you kidding? Besides, are you a fool, Eldest Brother? How can you believe the words of a Master? Don’t you think I don’t know your character of treating wealth like your life?”

Xie Niushan was upset.

Even if he was a fool, he could understand why they were here.

They really wanted money!

He actually lost the bet!

“It’s true! The Master’s words came true. That’s why I’m returning the money to you! Second Brother, I really don’t have any money now. I won’t borrow anything from you. You just need to return what I gave you before!” Xie Mangshan said anxiously.

Xie Niushan curled his lips. “Impossible, you’re pretending to be poor with me.”

Any of his treasures would be sold for several thousand taels of silver.

His family assets were at least 50,000 taels of silver, and that excluded the gifts he and Ms. Lu had given them over the years.

If that was included, how much would that be?

He would be even richer than them!

Xie Mangshan was secretly dying!

“Second Son! If you don’t believe in your Eldest Brother, don’t you believe in me? Look at me, my legs are hurt, and I haven’t had proper replenishment. My hair has turned much whiter, can’t you tell?” The old lady cried, “Second Son, it wasn’t easy for me to give birth to you back then, and I almost died in childbirth. How could you bear to see me in such a difficult situation?”

The old lady had never been so pitiful.

Honestly, she really did not want to continue living that miserable life for even a moment!

It was fine if she had lived a miserable life in her hometown in the past, but now that she had come to the capital and become rich, how could she allow herself to eat bran and vegetables everyday, living a life that even livestock were unwilling to live?

Absolutely not!

The old lady’s eyes were filled with pleading.

Xie Niushan frowned.

With this kind of behavior, he was afraid that what she said might be true, but that was too foolish. She had already given back the silver that she had obtained, right?

“Where’s the silver?” Xie Niushan asked the steward.

The steward replied honestly, “The First Young Master andFirst Young Lady are keeping the money. If you want it, you can look for them. But… Third Master had come earlier. At that time, the two masters had already instructed that the money that has entered the house should never be taken out again. If anyone dares to give the wealth away, the person will be chased out of the Xie Residence… Master, I wouldn’t dare to do that.”
