The Princess Consort Has A Lethal Destiny
Chapter 504: Give it to Me!
Xie Mangshan was now at the end of his rope. His thoughts had already reached a dead end and he could not get out.
After returning to the small courtyard, he immediately lost his temper, especially at Xie Congshan. He insisted that he take out his silver.
Xie Congshan had silver indeed.
He was traumatized from being poor. Even after he became wealthy, he would always secretly carry some silver notes with him just in case.
However, he was also afraid that he would lose the silver notes if he kept them with him. Therefore, there were not many silver notes hiding in his clothes. There was a total of 200 taels of silver. Later on, when the old lady asked everyone to gather their money, he was not willing to give these silver notes.
These few days, he spent some more and was only left with 150 taels of silver.
He knew his eldest brother's position in this family. Once he took out these silver notes, it would be a gone case. He would never be able to get them back.
Therefore, he did not tell anyone about these silver notes.
He held onto them tightly.
Other than Xie Congshan, everyone else was the same.
They more or less had some private belongings hidden on them.
"I've already told all of you to give me your silver notes! Speak up! Did any of you secretly keep it?! Hand it over!" At that moment, Xie Mangshan was like a madman.
Ms. Jia and the others were frightened.
Xie Mangshan started to smash things.
When he saw Ms. Jia's panicked expression, he immediately came to a realization.
This woman was also hiding money behind his back!
He walked over and started to beat her up. How could she withstand that? She took out her private belongings after being beaten up twice.
It was not much, there were more than thirty taels of silver.
However, Xie Mangshan found hope.
His son and daughter might have some, the old lady too. Then there was his third brother…
Yes, his third brother, he definitely had money!
Five hundred taels of silver, he would definitely be able to gather that!
As long as he could gather the fine, he would get a few beatings at most. He would just have to endure it, and in the future, good fortune would come!
Xie Mangshan looked at the crowd with a burning gaze. Even the old lady shivered and subconsciously covered her clothes. When Xie Mangshan saw that, he did not care about his dignity anymore and went forward to take the old lady's things.
"Mother, give me the silver! Pinggang said that if I don't get 500 taels of silver, I will have to go to jail! Do you want me to go to jail? If I go to jail, who will support you? In the entire family, I am the only one who is filial to you!" Xie Mangshan said as he took her belongings.
The old lady felt sorry for her son. When she heard that, she took out her private belongings with tears in her eyes.
She was trembling. She was also hiding her private belongings in her clothes. There was one hundred taels of silver.
In fact, she had been hiding the one hundred taels of silver for a long time.
When she first arrived in the capital, she was very poor. There was 1,000 taels of silver among the gifts Xie Niushan sent.
She was extremely excited. She was afraid that she would run out of money, so she sewed one of the silver notes into her favorite and most expensive clothes.
Later on, she lost interest in the most decent clothes she had. She kept it under the box and forgot about it.
Xie Mangshan had sold many things, and all of her beautiful and expensive clothes were gone.
Only then did she take out the previous clothes and recalled the money hidden inside.
She thought that she would save it for her retirement.
After Xie Mangshan robbed the old lady of her money, he looked at the others.
"Mother, Second Brother is coming back soon. When he comes back, we will definitely have a good life! Do you still remember? It must have been nearly 30 years ago, right? Back then, Second Brother was very obedient. There was not enough water in the house. Ms. Jia had just married into the family and wanted to take a bath. We got him to fetch water. Without saying anything, he set off. Later on, he was caught by the barbarians. He betrayed the entire village and brought the barbarians to rob the villagers. Everyone wanted him gone, and so did we. He didn't blame us and left very quickly. You see, he's loyal to his core. He will not watch me suffer!"
