Chapter 141: Take the Silver Hairpin
The pastries priced at twenty coins each weren't cheap. Even in the shop they cost more than one or two taels of silver per jin. However, due to the convenient transportation in Nanchang County, the large influx of people and being in the southern region with a wealthy population, Chu Xing quickly sold all the pastries. He then hurriedly drove the mule cart to the city gate to wait for Chu Liushi and Chu Zhiwen. "Ah Xing, there's a letter for you here." When he arrived at the teahouse near the city gate, someone called out to him. Chu Xing quickly went over, took the letter, and immediately recognized Chu Heng's name on it. Chu Xing knew that the letter was for his sister-in-law. Although he couldn't read many characters, he recognized some simple ones. After all, he had to know a bit about words since he often traveled to do business and couldn't afford to be deceived. As for learning words, he learned them from Chu Heng. In the village, Tang Rou returned home angrily in the morning after being treated unfairly by Ye Muyu. Since she didn't encounter Tang Wangshi and Tang Xueren and the house was empty, she went straight into her room to figure out her future plans. Ye Muyu clearly didn't want to get along well with her. It wasn't appropriate for Tang Rou to enter the Chu family through Ye Muyu. So, the only option was to let Ye Muyu voluntarily give up her position. Thinking of Ye Muyu's health, Tang Rou gritted her teeth contemplating how to put slow-acting poison in Ye Muyu's medicine. Before she could figure out a clue, someone came back. Tang Rou didn't dare to show any flaws. Before marrying Chu Heng, she had to stabilize Tang Wangshi and couldn't let her marry first. With such thoughts, Tang Rou came out of the room. She initially thought it was Tang Wangshi who had returned but unexpectedly she ran into Tang Chuan. Seeing Tang Rou, Tang Chuan's new and old grudges erupted instantly. He walked up to Tang Rou, imposingly aggressive, and angrily said, "Tang Rou, things are going quite well, thanks to you. Now, I've been demoted to the third class because of you." "Give me twenty taels, otherwise I'll definitely tell Dad. By then, no matter how you scheme, it'll be useless." After sneering at Tang Rou, Tang Chuan coldly smiled, not afraid that Tang Rou wouldn't comply. Moreover, he knew that Tang Rou liked Chu Heng, making her a perfect target. "I can't believe this! Twenty taels! Why don't you go rob someone?" Tang Rou shouted. "Don't pretend. If it wasn't for you looking for me wanting me to help you set up a date with Chu Heng and do a good deed for you, I wouldn't have been tricked by Chu Heng and thrown into the third class. It's all because of you. So, twenty taels. If you don't have it don't blame me for not being polite." Tang Chuan sneered. "And you know, because of you, I have a handle on you. If you don't give me twenty taels, I'll make sure Dad knows about your feelings for Chu Heng." "What did you say?" Tang Rou screamed "Twenty taels and you're selling me out?!" "I can sell you out. Besides you're not that young anymore." Tang Chuan nodded seriously. "You!" Tang Rou was so angry that her cheeks turned red. She wished she could strangle Tang Chuan on the spot. Tang Chuan impatiently said, "What? Don't want to?" "I don't have twenty taels." Tang Rou took a deep breath gritted her teeth and said. "In that case, how much do you have? Don't tell me it's just a few taels. I know you have a silver hairpin. Even if you say you have only ten taels, I'll know you're lying." Tang Chuan looked at her with a smile that was not a smile.📌 To Read The Latest Updates Click 👇👇
