“Muan! Are you all right?” Aunt Li asked.
Xu Muan smiled and said, “It’s nothing.” Although something bad happened during Xiao Jinfeng’s wedding, it was finally over.
“Yesterday those people had gone too far. From all days they could come, they had to pick up that day.” Aunt Li was full of resentment.
Xu Muan lowered his head, although yesterday was a bit unpleasant, after this group of people came, Xu Muan finally let go of his worries of keeping money to pay for their creditors who were about to come. It was not a happy thing, but those people were too arrogant.
“Yesterday, Qiu Bai got married. Father Qiu showed off his son all day long and wanted to marry him into a big family. But in fact, Qiu Bai became a concubine.” Aunt Li was full of disdain.
Xu Muan was a bit surprised, “Became a concubine?”
In this world, the status of a concubine was very low. If you become a concubine, you will be a member of your husband’s family and have nothing to do with your own family. The husband’s family could even sell the concubine.
In fact, Xu Muan was also married to Xiao Jingting as a concubine and Xiao Jingting could sell Xu Muan if he wanted. This was also the reason why Xu Muan tolerated a lot of things the original Xiao Jingting did.
Aunt Li nodded and said, “Yes! Father Qiu always said how rich the family his son was married in was and how rich his future days would be. He used to put gold in one’s face (glorifying oneself or others by exaggerating to gain favor.). But the family didn’t seem to take Qiu Bai seriously and married him with only a small sedan chair.”
Xu Muan squinted his eyes. As far as he was concerned, Qiu Bai married off and won’t bother them anymore, so everything would be fine. As for what kind of family he married in, Xu Muan didn’t care.
“Father Qiu was willing to let his second son be a concubine. Did the Li family give him some precious betrothal gifts?” Xu Muan asked.
Aunt Li said mysteriously, “I heard they gave two pieces of Spirit Jade.”
Xu Muan squinted his eyes. No wonder, two pieces of spiritual jade were worth quite a bit of silver. “It’s for Qiu Li, isn’t it?”
Aunt Li nodded and said, “Yes, what is more precious for Father Qiu than his son? If not, he would not have married Qiu Bai in a hurry. I heard that the Master Li who Qiu Bai married, already has two concubines and a main wife who is very fierce.”
Xu Muan laughed and said, “Really?” Qiu Bai was also a restless one. After marrying over to the Li family, he was afraid that the peaceful days of Li family were over.
“I didn’t think it would take so much silver for abandoning fields, people from the Marquis mansion is really trying to cheat people. It would have been nice if Master Xiao had come to his senses a little earlier.” Aunt Li sighed with exclamations.
“Because he could come to his senses, spending some silver is nothing.” Xu Muan said indifferently. Xiao Jingting changing his personality was already an unattainable thing and he didn’t dare to ask for more.

Xiao family.
“Second brother, you’re up so early! I thought you were going to stay up late. There is a saying that nights of rendezvous are always too short!” Jingting looked at the energetic Xiao Jinfeng.
Xiao Jinfeng smiled awkwardly and said, “It is not suitable for Shuyu to do strenuous exercise now.”
Xiao Jingting, “…”
“Brother, your gift was too valuable.” Xiao Jinfeng originally did not know what Xiao Jingting gave them but after looking at it yesterday, he could not help feeling shocked.
Xiao Jingting didn’t care, “Brother, just take it. Besides, if second sister-in-law becomes stronger, it will just reduce my burden.”
“You!” Xiao Jinfineg hit Xiao Jingting on the chest.
Xiao Jingting folded his arms and said, “Second sister-in-law is not an outsider. We brothers already came to this point, if we don’t help one another, how can we go on?”
Xiao Jinfeng nodded and said, “That’s right.”
“I am going to the field.” Xiao Jingting said.
“Working so hard? Going so early.” Xiao Jinfeng was a little surprised.
“I am not working hard! Just yesterday we spent one thousand and five hundred taels of silver!” Xiao Jingting shook his head.
Xiao Jinfeng frowned and said, “These people who came yesterday were really too excessive. They originally should have only asked for 1000 tales. The remaining 500 taels probably have filled the pockets of people who came here yesterday.”
Yesterday, the person who came here reported a fine of 1500 taels. At that time, the village chief casually begged for mercy but one of the men kicked him, which was quite fierce. The leader also said directly, “Take out the money, if you don’t have it, you will go to jail. I don’t care if you are some young master from Xiao family, in front of Marquis family, Xiao family is not worth even a fart.”
The man who came did not consider Xiao Jingting’s feelings at all, and left high and mighty after taking the silver.
After the wedding yesterday, Xiao Jingting and Xu Muan went to the village head’s house and gave a generous gift to express their gratitude.
“When I get stronger in the future, I will definitely teach a lesson to these groups of arrogant people but right now, I still need to improve my strength,” Xiao Jingting said.
Xiao Jinfeng patted Xiao Jingting on the shoulder and said, “I’ll go with you to the fields and check the traps along the way.”
Xiao Jingting nodded and said, “All right!”
Please report us if you find any errors so we can fix it asap!
“Muan! Are you all right?” Aunt Li asked.
