CHAPTER 180: CHAPTER 180: ASKING FOR SILVER

Jiang Rong glanced at Mrs. Chen, "Your words don’t count."

"He grew up eating food from the Jiang family. If he dares not to repay us, he would be ungrateful."

Mr. Jiang also fell silent at this moment.

Jiang Hua’s eyes flickered from the side.

Jiang Youzhi nodded, "I see."

"What kind of repayment does Second Uncle want?"

Jiang Rong said casually, "Not too much, you have to give at least several hundred to a thousand taels of silver."

Jiang Youzhi laughed in anger, "Did the Jiang family spend several hundred to a thousand taels on raising me?"

Mr. Jiang stomped anxiously beside him, "Second son, stop talking!"

Jiang Rong was short-sighted, only knowing to ask for silver. In the future, when Sanlang becomes an official, silver will mean nothing.

Arranging a job for the family would easily ensure that they wouldn’t lack spending money.

More importantly, the whole family would be able to rise to prosperity.

Mr. Jiang mediated, "Sanlang, don’t listen to your second uncle. Even though it’s been hard raising you, we’re not just doing it for silver."

Jiang Youzhi nodded, "I will definitely pay silver. However, as Second Uncle knows, I’ve been recuperating at home for so long, and now I have no silver to give."

"In the future, I will certainly repay the Jiang family."

At this moment, Yun Jiao entered the room, lifted the last package, and placed it in the carriage.

She looked up at the sky and said to Jiang Youzhi, "It’s getting late, we must leave."

Jiang Youzhi ignored Jiang Rong, helping the driver cover the luggage with oilcloth and then tying it down.

After finishing this, Jiang Youzhi checked around and locked the door, then stepped on the horse stool intending to board the carriage.

Just then, Jiang Rong grabbed him, "You can’t leave!"

Jiang Youzhi staggered from the pull, nearly falling.

Mrs. Chen was startled and hurried over, shouting at Jiang Rong, "Why are you pulling him? He almost fell."

Yun Jiao had already boarded the carriage but came down again, "Sanlang, is your leg okay?"

Jiang Youzhi shook his head, "It’s fine."

He turned to look at Jiang Rong, "Is Second Uncle forcing me to give silver now?"

Jiang Rong snorted, "It’s best to give silver."

"Otherwise, once you leave, where will I find you?"

Jiang Youzhi laughed in anger, "I don’t have silver now."

He turned to Mr. Jiang, "Whether or not I am my parents’ biological child."

"As you said, I grew up eating Jiang family’s food."

"Grandfather, rest assured, I will definitely repay the kindness of the Jiang family raising me."

After saying this, he knelt down, bowing three times to Mr. Jiang, then turned and boarded the carriage.

Jiang Rong stopped him again, "No, you can’t leave!"

"You must give us an explanation no matter what."

Jiang Youzhi looked coldly at Jiang Rong, "Tell me, what kind of explanation do you want?"

Jiang Rong’s eyes shifted, "I’m not asking for much, just five hundred taels first, and we can discuss the rest later."

He glanced at Yun Jiao next to him, "If you don’t have it, you can borrow from someone. Your family has a wealthy master."

Yun Jiao looked speechlessly at the sky, this person is really interesting, now targeting her.

Jiang Youzhi looked coldly at Jiang Rong, "This is between me and the Jiang family, don’t involve others."

He turned to Mr. Jiang, "Grandfather, I can’t come up with five hundred taels."

"I also don’t think the food Jiang family raised me with is worth that much."

"I am willing to write an IOU for two hundred taels, and anyone from the Jiang family can use this IOU to find me for silver."

"What do you think, Grandfather?"
