Chapter 389 My Cousin Borrows Money, Wushuang Turns Against Me

The man with the tooth has sharp eyes.

Seeing that Cheng Ying didn't take out any money for a long time, the smile on his face disappeared, and he straightened his back.

"Miss, fifty taels."

"If you have enough silver, I will prepare a saddle for you right now."

"If you haven't brought enough, go outside and take a look at those blue-and-white horses."

"It's cheap, you can take it away for twenty taels."

"If that doesn't work, there are mules outside that can be used for hauling goods; they cost five taels of silver each."

Cheng Ying bit her lower lip.

She turned her head and looked at Yang Guo and Lu Wushuang standing outside the shed.

Yang Guo leaned against a wooden pillar, arms crossed, and looked at her with a smile.

Lu Wushuang stood next to Yang Guo, playing with a horsewhip in her hand.

The two of them were clearly laughing at her.

Cheng Ying gritted her teeth and stuffed the purse back into her waistband.

She walked up to Yang Guo, lowered her head, and began to speak.

"Brother Yang, could you lend me forty taels of silver?"

"When we get to Xiangyang, I'll repay you double."

When Cheng Ying said those words, she wished she could disappear into a crack in the ground.

She had just vowed to sever all ties with Yang Guo and never get involved with that bastard.

Now, however, he has no choice but to bow down and borrow money from him.

The humiliation made her voice tremble.

Yang Guo reached out and touched his chin.

He took a step forward, inhaling the faint fragrance emanating from Cheng Ying.

"Borrow money."

"You'll have to ask my wife about this."

"She controls all the family finances."

Yang Guo passed the buck to Lu Wushuang.

Yang Guo didn't bring much money with him this time.

All the money of the Quanzhen Sect was given to Technician Li for construction.

The inner hall has high expenses, and the alchemy hall and intelligence department both need money everywhere.

When Yang Guo and Lu Wushuang went down the mountain, they only had eighty taels of silver in their bundle.

These past few days, I've spent ten taels on hotels, meals, and snacks along the way.

Now, at most, I only have seventy taels left.

Although Yang Guo was not short of money, he wanted to take this opportunity to teach Cheng Ying a lesson for her arrogance.

When Lu Wushuang heard that he wanted to borrow forty taels of silver, his eyes widened instantly.

"no."

Lu Wushuang refused outright.

Cheng Ying looked up, staring at Lu Wushuang with a look of utter astonishment.

"Wushuang, my cousin really needs this horse."

"My legs just won't let me walk anymore."

"Don't worry, once we get to Xiangyang, my senior sister will definitely return the money to you."

"The Guo family is large and powerful; they would never default on their debts."

Lu Wushuang pursed her lips.

She walked up to Cheng Ying and spoke loudly.

"Cousin, it's not that I don't want to lend it to you."

"We only have seventy taels of silver left, and we still have a long way to go."

"Xiang Gong always wanted good food and clothing, and when staying at an inn, he wanted to stay in a superior room."

"If we lend you the money to buy horses, what will we eat and where will we stay on the road?"

"Does my husband have to continue sleeping in this dilapidated temple?"

"I slept in a dilapidated temple last night, and my husband's body is covered in red bumps from insect bites."

Lu Wushuang is extremely protective of her own.

In her heart, Yang Guo will always be number one.

Yang Guo's money was her money; it was the foundation for their life together.

This money was all hard-earned by my husband through his hard work in the Quanzhen Sect.

She herself had endured all kinds of hardships when she was wandering the world.

She concluded that Cheng Ying was just too spoiled.

"Besides, what's wrong with walking?"

"When I was lame, I could walk dozens of miles a day without ever complaining."

"You can't even stand it after walking for half a day?"

"If you really can't walk anymore, just throw your luggage away and walk slowly behind me."

Lu Wushuang spoke without any mercy.

Cheng Ying's eyes reddened from the hurtful words.

She stared intently at Lu Wushuang.

Is this still the girl who used to follow her around calling her "cousin" when she was little?

Now, for a few dozen taels of silver, for a man, they are humiliating her like this.

A wave of sadness washed over her.

I just feel that this cousin has been completely ruined by Yang Guo, who has even disregarded the most basic human relationships and family ties.

Yang Guo stood to the side, watching the two cousins ​​bicker, and chuckled to himself.

Lu Wushuang, when she gets jealous, she won't even recognize her own relatives.

But this is also the result he wanted.

What he wanted was for Cheng Ying to be isolated and helpless, with no choice but to rely on him.

Only by breaking down all her pride can this talented disciple from Peach Blossom Island be completely taken into the household.

Yang Guo took a step forward and put his arm around Lu Wushuang's shoulder.

"Wife, don't be so heartless."

"She's still your cousin, after all."

"It's only forty taels of silver. We can just be more frugal with the money for the rest of the journey."

Yang Guo turned to look at Cheng Ying.

He looked Cheng Ying up and down, staring intently at her body.

His gaze swept over Cheng Ying's firm chest.

The memory of holding that soft hand inside the cloak last night keeps replaying in my mind.

Her size and elasticity were indeed much fuller than Lu Wushuang's.

"Miss Cheng, I can lend you this money."

"However, we men of the martial world settle accounts clearly, even among brothers."

"If you can't repay this debt when you get to Xiangyang, what do you plan to use to settle it?"

Yang Guo lowered his voice and leaned forward, so that only he and Cheng Ying could hear him.

"I think you have a nice figure, big breasts and a perky butt."

"How about you become my concubine, washing my feet and warming my bed?"

"Last night in that dilapidated temple, weren't you quite eager to crawl into my bed?"

"I think you have the potential to be a concubine."

Yang Guo's words were extremely vulgar.

Cheng Ying was so angry that she trembled all over.

Her face turned so red it looked like it was about to bleed.

She raised her hand, pointed at Yang Guo's nose, her voice trembling.

"You're shameless!"

"I'd rather walk myself to death on the street than take your filthy money!"

When the man saw the three men arguing and clearly had no intention of buying the white horse, his face fell completely.

What he hates most in this line of work are people who just look but don't buy, wasting his breath.

"Hey you three, are you making fun of me?"

"What's the point of buying a horse if you don't have money?"

"Get out of here, get out of here, don't block my business."

"Dressed like a proper gentleman, yet unable to produce even fifty taels of silver, what are you pretending to be?"

"If you don't have money, go outside and buy a donkey to ride. Why come here and show off your wealth?"

The broker waved impatiently, trying to shoo them away.

Cheng Ying stood there, caught in a dilemma.

People buying and selling livestock nearby looked over and pointed at them.

Someone was whispering, saying, "Whose poor, runaway relative is this?"

Some people even whistled at Cheng Ying's face and figure.

Cheng Ying is a person who cares a lot about her image.

When has she ever suffered such injustice?

Tears welled up in my eyes, and I held them back with great effort.

She wanted to turn and run away, but her legs felt weak and she couldn't take a step.

That warm sensation in my lower abdomen started acting up again.

Coupled with the extreme shame she felt, she even found it difficult to stand up straight.

All she wanted now was to find a secluded place to hide, and never see Yang Guo's hateful face again.

"I'll pay for this young lady's horse!"

Just then, a grinning voice came from the entrance of Mule and Horse Market.
