Wanjin Lady

Chapter 172 The Righteous Pig Demon
"Godmother. Not really." Wen Wan changed her words readily. Since she was allowed to cling to the Yao family, don't even think about pulling her down!

Wen Wan squeezed Madam Yao's hand and said, "I have money."

The young lady whispered a few words to Hongmei, and Hongmei ran to the backyard, while Wenwan slowly moved in front of Cheng Yunzhang.

Cheng Yunzhang knew that Zhao Heng was still alive, so he could naturally see the little pride hidden under Wen Wan's miserable face. The chill of autumn seemed to be hidden in the white flowers on the woman's head. "Senior Brother——"

The woman called softly, her brows slightly furrowed, indescribably touching.

Cheng Yunzhang's hair stood on end.

coming.

The weasel came to wish the chicken a happy new year.

"Little..." Cheng Yunzhang's crimson lips opened and closed, his eyes only filled with the fox wagging its tail. Deep inside, a smile dotted the sky. "Junior sister?"

For the first time, he felt that the word "junior sister"... was so ambiguous.

It was as if the moment it was spoken out... it was already a taboo and a crime.

"I'm shy and it's hard for me to borrow money from my adoptive parents, but Senior Brother... can you lend me these two hundred taels?"

Ah.

Today, Xinlong Money House came to the mourning hall to cause trouble. Others may not know about it, but Wen Wan guessed that this was a big gift package given to her by the third branch of the Yuan family before leaving.

After all, everyone in Ping County knew about her and Yuan Liulang.

If the third branch of the Yuan family cannot find the murderer, they may vent their anger on her.

Since it was the Yuan family who did it, why couldn't she settle the score with Cheng Yunzhang?

Cheng Yunzhang thought that Wen Wan was willing to borrow money from him because she regarded him as her senior brother, but he didn't know that a huge pot had already fallen on him.

Cheng Yunzhang had no choice but to pay the money obediently.

He placed the purse in Wen Wan's hand, and said with a slight curl of his lips, "Junior Sister, feel free to use it. No need to rush to return it."

Wen Wan bowed slightly, "Thank you, Senior Brother."

Senior brother.

How good.

There is also a senior brother Wei Zheng who is far away. Since we are senior and junior brothers and sisters, we are all family.

Can she also borrow the title of Governor Wei Zheng, Lord Wei?

Wouldn't she be able to act arrogantly in Ping County, Bozhou, and even the entire Chen Dynasty in the future?
The more Wen Wan thought about it, the more beautiful it became, and she almost laughed out loud in Zhao Heng's mourning hall.

She strained her face, her brows furrowed deliberately, revealing an expression that said, "I'm weak, I'm helpless, I'm pitiful."

She must always remember that she is a widow whose husband has died!

Oh, no, it’s a beautiful and graceful widow!
Wen Wan took the purse from Cheng Yunzhang's hand, and her index finger accidentally brushed across his fingers. The young lady's skin was cool and smooth to the touch, like warm mutton-fat jade.

Cheng Yunzhang pulled his hand away in time.

But he couldn't help but glance at the young lady's fingers.

Coincidentally, Hongmei ran over with a red cloth box.

When he opened it, he found five hundred taels of silver inside.

Wen Weiming, Liu Yiyi, Chen Ma and others standing behind Wen Wan were all startled.

When did Wen Wan get so much cash?
Although Wen Weiming had been less involved in the household affairs since his illness, he kept track of the household accounts. The last time he liquidated the warehouse, he had brought back three or four hundred taels of silver, which he had used to replenish the winery's production.

Now, where did these five hundred taels come from?

Liu Yiyi was also puzzled. She used to be in charge of the Wen family's accounts, so she knew exactly how much money was left in the family.

After years of marriage, they naturally developed an unspoken understanding. Their eyes met simultaneously.

Liu Yiyi immediately turned her face away in embarrassment.

Damn, this deadly tacit understanding between me and my ex-husband.

Wen Wan took out all the money and roughly calculated it. However, the pig spirit was quick-witted and blurted out: "A total of one thousand and fifty taels. One hundred and ten taels are still missing."

Well, Aunt Liu has three hundred, she has five hundred, Cheng Yunzhang has two hundred, and my younger sister has fifty.

The total is exactly the number that the pig spirit said.

Wen Wan frowned slightly, and the pig spirit's voice came again, "Shopkeeper Wen, I have one hundred and ten taels here, you can take it first for emergency."

Yo.

Does the pig still have money?
Is this the family fortune that she hasn’t completely swindled away?
Zhu Wang ignored his wife's pulling and walked towards Wen Wan without hesitation. His eyes were so determined as if he wanted to join the party. He took out money in an obscene manner as he walked.

Seeing Zhu Wang throw a banknote and ten taels of silver into the savings box, Wen Weiming's expression became complicated, and then he felt a little touched.

Although this pig's gesture of goodwill was inexplicable, at least it took some practical action.

Looking at the elders of the Wen family, all cowering in corners, as if afraid that Wen Weiming would come to borrow money, Wen Weiming felt a little annoyed. He hugged Zhu Wang and said in a loud voice, "Brother, you... Brothers are always reliable in critical moments!"

Wen Yue looked embarrassed.

It’s not that she can’t come up with the money...it’s just that people say people should help in emergencies but not in poverty...With the second brother’s family situation now, even if she throws in a hundred taels of silver, it won’t make any difference!

The third son will soon take the examination for a scholar, and will have to get married soon. After a calculation, he found that the house is full of expenses!

Wen Weiming put aside his past grudges and was immediately moved by Zhu Jingzheng. "Brother, why are you saying these things? Just take the money and use it. There's no rush to pay it back!"

Only Mrs. Zhu Wang's eyes were sharp, glaring at Wen Wan like knives.

It must have been this little hoof that hooked it!

God damn it, right after her husband died, she already fell for another man! Is there any justice in this world?

This little girl has a good look, why does she fall for her husband Zhu?
Because he is old and doesn’t take a bath?
Old Zhu was completely unaware of the murderous intention behind him and smiled at Wen Wan attentively. Then he remembered that Yasha's man had just died. If he greeted her with a smile, he would probably be recorded in Yasha's book again, so he had to tighten his face.

"Niece, although we had disagreements in the past, our friendship of over ten years cannot be severed just like that. You should take this money and use it to tide you over this difficult time, and give your uncle a proper burial!"

Zhu Wang thought that these words were reasonable and righteous, and he felt very happy.

Wen Wan accepted the pig spirit's "hard-earned money," then spread out her hands and said in a cold voice, "Shopkeeper Ding, the money the Wen family borrowed has been collected. Please return the land deed and loan agreement to me."

Shopkeeper Ding's face was tense and looked very ugly. Today, his Xinlong Bank really lost more than it gained!

What's more, as long as the Wen family is revived, there will be no place for him!

Now that he is in a difficult situation, he can only go with the flow.

"What are you standing there for?!" The woman suddenly shouted coldly, endless energy erupting from her thin body. Her brows were cold and her eyes were filled with murderous intent. "Land deed! Loan agreement! Give it to me!"

Under the watchful eyes of the crowd, Shopkeeper Ding, no matter how reluctant he was, had no choice but to produce the contract and the land deed. However, the businessman was quick-witted and said with a smile, "Shopkeeper Wen, please calm down. I'm also concerned about the bank's business. Please forgive me if I've offended you in any way."

Wen Wan handed the title deed to Aunt Liu for safekeeping, then took the contract, took out the fire starter she carried with her and lit it!
In a moment, the loan book turned into ashes!
Shopkeeper Ding's eyelids twitched.

Hongmei raised her chin, her tone rather arrogant, "Manager Ding, please be a little more respectful. Look at my Wen family, are they the ones who default on their debts?!"

Shopkeeper Ding reached out to take it.

Suddenly, a fair and delicate hand pressed on the corner of the savings box.

He raised his eyes and met the cool eyes of the young lady. "When Manager Ding came, he spoke passionately in the courtyard."

"Now, I will say something too."
