C31 Falling Tank

Luo Mannmann put the jar upside down and landed on the ground. Dozens of coins rolled down along with a pile of scattered coins.

The floor was filled with coins, and one of them tumbled to Auntie Qiu's feet.

"It's still Mrs. Xiao after all." Why don't you just pay the money back? "Hehe, wait for my wife to count."

Auntie Qiu's eyes lit up as she ran to Luo Mannmann's side like a wisp of smoke. She squatted beside the pile of coins on the ground and counted them.

At this time, the villagers who were watching the show did not idle talk, and started to discuss loudly, "The Xiao Family is not bad, and I thought you would not even be able to take out a single copper coin? That pile should at least be worth a few taels of silver, right? "

"That's right. Seeing how desperately their family is making money these days, they must have some silver."

"Look at how Auntie Qiu is crawling on the ground like a dog. She really doesn't seem to have seen money. Isn't she afraid of being laughed at for coming here so early in the morning?"

As the villagers discussed, Auntie Qiu's expression did not change. She paid no attention to what was going on outside the window and focused on counting copper coins.

She put the copper coins back into the jar and started counting the copper coins one by one.

Roman looked at her with ridicule in his eyes and said in a light voice, "Auntie Qiu, are you done counting?"

"You're done counting. That's not right. In total, it is only slightly more than 2 taels of silver. Do you really have the nerve to take it out?" Auntie Qiu's eyebrows twitched as she yelled at the top of her lungs.

"Auntie Qiu, this is your fault. Tell the villagers who are from the village to earn two taels of silver a month. Besides, you're just a scoundrel. It's not bad even if I gave you some money."

Luo Mannmann's voice was clear and her thoughts were organized. In the end, she added, "Fellow villagers, please say something fair, is this true?"

The usually upright Liu Shan, who was holding his five-year-old son, couldn't help but interject, "Auntie Qiu, enough. We're all from the same village. Once it breaks up, it won't be nice if we don't lower our heads in the future."

"Pah! I don't care if it looks good or not!" Who wants to interact with their Xiao Family? You're poor and you're shameless, right? After saying so, he sat down on the ground without caring about his image. At that time, his hands were still holding onto the mud jar, not letting go.

Aunt Xiao's face didn't look too good, so she said weakly, "Auntie Qiu, just look at it. Let's just give you some time. We won't give you less when the time comes."

Aunt Xiao knew that she was in the wrong in Qiu Ju's matter. Originally, she had recognized this wife of hers … Who knew that luck would fool people?

In addition, Qiu Ju had brought quite a few people over to propose marriage, but all of them had ended in failure. She could understand Auntie Qiu's intentions, as this was something that their Xiao Family owed them.

"Hmph …" Don't be so polite, I only acknowledge money, not people. "If you don't return the money today, then my old woman will just stay here and not leave."

Xiao Yiming's good temper was finally used up. He shouted, "Fine, just sit here as long as you want. The money is all here anyway, we don't have a single extra person."

With that, he took Luo Mannmann's hand. His tone wasn't as cold as before. "Wifey, let's go back and have breakfast. We're too lazy to bother with her."

Seeing that Xiao Yiming wanted to go back to his room, how could Auntie Qiu be willing? She quickly got up from the ground and rushed in front of the two of them.

She had heard that Mrs. Xiao's whitening mud had been selling well in the village during this period of time. With so many copper coins in the jar, there was a high chance that she made it all by relying on this. If she could get the formula, wouldn't she be able to count money by lying at home everyday?

"Aunt, you are so beautiful." Luo Mannmann teased with a grin, her watery eyes brimming with a smile.

"Really? Have I really become beautiful? " Auntie Qiu touched her face subconsciously and felt a lot more tender.

Being brought up like this made him feel good about himself.

She had secretly asked others to buy whitening mud s for use, and they were pretty useful.

Her hands were already smeared with dirt, but the dust on her face made her look even more comical.

Luo Mannmann burst out laughing, "I'm saying you're thinking of being beautiful, but if you want the formula, don't even open the door, and take advantage of the time when our Xiao Family people are still not in a rage, and quickly go back and wait. Otherwise, don't ask for silver when the time comes."

She had really underestimated this old woman. She had actually thought of her formula. Speaking of this, she felt frustrated. She had to find another way to work together since there was nothing she could do.

Aunt Liang couldn't stand it any longer. She said, "Auntie Qiu, you're really thinking too highly of yourself. Mrs. Xiao worked hard to develop the formula, so how can I give it to you? You're too whimsical. With the formula in a month's time, you can return it to me."

"That's right, he's from the same village, and yet he's still afraid of people running away. Moreover, you're just bluffing. It's already good enough for me to give it to you, and you're even making a racket early in the morning."

"You, you, which side are you on?" Auntie Qiu's face turned red from choking.

Then, he pointed at the silent Aunt Xiao and said, "Aunt Xiao, quickly tell your wife to hand over the formula. Even if I lose, I won't look for you. We're even between the two of us."

After hearing this, Aunt Xiao almost sneered. After knowing her for dozens of years, she had yet to realize just how hateful she was, "My wife is right, if you want a formula, then obediently wait for the money. If you're smart, then I won't even give you a single copper coin.

Aunt Xiao was infuriated now, so she decided to break off all decorum with her. In any case, they had no plans to keep in contact with each other, so there was no point in being polite.

"Aunt Xiao, you finally revealed your true nature, right? And Qiu Ju still keeps saying how much you love her? And the result? "My son ruined my daughter's reputation, and he doesn't even return the money he promised. Is this how you behave when you're your age?"

Auntie Qiu complained with her mucus and tiredness. No one who didn't know what kind of grievance she had suffered and how bad her Xiao Family were.

"Auntie Qiu, I already said I'll return it to you. What's the point of pestering you like this?"

"I don't care, I just want the money today?" Auntie Qiu said as she took a glance around the room and immediately rushed inside.

She had to go and have a look. Where was the recipe? However, before they could even take a few steps, Xiao Yiming grabbed their arms and said, "Auntie Qiu, I respect you as an elder. Please behave yourself."

"I must get the formula today." Seeing that her arm had been grabbed, Auntie Qiu shamelessly sat on the ground.

This direction happened to be the blind spot for vision. The villagers outside only saw her sitting on the ground: "Aiyo, Xiao Yiming pushed my wife again. Is there still any justice in the world? This bastard has killed me a thousand times."

"If you mess around any more, do you believe that I'll really push you?" Xiao Yiming's face was terrifyingly dark.

"You don't sound like you're pushing it." Auntie Qiu added another stab.

"Enough, Auntie Qiu. I'll count to three and give you two choices. "One, leave immediately. One month from now, I, Luo Mannmann, will return you four taels of silver. Two, I will ask Xiao Yiming to drag you away, you can't even think of getting a single copper coin."

Luo Mannmann's pretty face was covered in frost, giving off a bone-piercing coldness. Her eyes were sharp, and her voice was ice-cold without a trace of warmth.

Auntie Qiu snorted in a low voice, her frail body motionless.

"I say three times, one, two …" Before he even finished his sentence, he saw Auntie Qiu, who was like a spinning top, jump up and down in an instant, asking with a high-pitched voice, "Did you say that? At that time, what should we do? "

"Then I'll hand over the formula with both hands." Luo Mannmann said resolutely.

"Heh, you neighbors, you've really heard it clearly, haven't you? Fine, I'll believe you once more. If you don't have any money in one month, then just follow your own instructions and present the formula. Hmph …"

Auntie Qiu was very satisfied with this result after she finished her sentence. She hummed a small tune and happily left under the mocking and discussing gazes of the others.

After Auntie Qiu left, Xiao Yiming became anxious: "My wife, how can you agree to give her the formula? This is the result of your own development, why would you let this kind of person get away with it? "

"Don't worry, how could the formula be wasted by such a person?" "I've already thought of a way. When the time comes, we will definitely return the money." Luo Mannmann patted his large hand, her eyes signalling for him to be patient.

After Auntie Qiu left, the villagers who were watching the fun also dispersed. Only Liu Shan left. He walked over with his son in his arms and asked, "Yiming, I still have a few taels of silver. How about I give it to you first?"

"Brother Liu Shan doesn't need it, I believe in my wife. She said that she will definitely be able to return it next month. Thank you, Brother Shan, for your kindness."

"Thank you, Brother Shan." Luo Mannmann said that there were still many honest and kind villagers, but there was only one in front of them right?

Looking at the little boy in his arms, his dark face blushed a little. He looked at Luo Mannmann curiously with his black eyes wide open. Seeing that someone was sizing him up, he withdrew into Liu Shan's arms timidly.

"Brother Shan, is this your son? It's pretty cute. " Luo Mannmann touched Little Ya Dan's head with a gentle expression.

"Ya Dan, quickly call Aunt."

"Aunt."

"Sigh, how obedient."

Aunt Xiao couldn't help but touch his little hand when she saw Ya Dan. "Mannmann, I can tell that you also like children, so hurry up and have one with Yiming. The aunt is so anxious waiting to carry a grandson."

Seeing Luo Mannmann's awkward expression, Xiao Yiming coughed lightly and said, "Mom, let's be an outsider and not be afraid of ridicule. "Oh right, there were a few sweet potatoes buried in the kitchen cave this morning. Mother, go get some for Ya Dan to eat."

Aunt Xiao originally wanted to say something, but this time she looked at Ya Dan affectionately and ran to the kitchen to grill a few roasted sweet potatoes from the ashes in the stove.

He took a few quick steps and walked in front of Liu Shan, then said to Ya Dan: "Ya Dan, do you like eating sweet potatoes? This was freshly baked by my aunt this morning, you smell so good, let your dad take it home for you to eat, okay?"
