Married the Tough Guy After Transmigrating-Chapter 459: Demanding Money

Yang Zhanyou listened to his eldest brother’s complaints and suddenly felt a burst of anger, "Eldest brother, that’s not right.

It was you and sister-in-law who insisted that my son come back to our hometown to get married. If he hadn’t come back, none of this would have happened.

Village Chief Yang’s son thinks he’s so great that he can sexually harass girls?

It’s Village Chief Yang’s son’s fault, and you’re still blaming us?"

He had figured it out; his big brother was here to demand an explanation and money from him.

What could he do, they just wanted to be compensated, right?

Having lived in Yang Village for so long, he understood the character of Village Chief Yang’s family all too well, they were never satisfied.

Upon hearing his younger brother’s words, Yang Zhanquan immediately became furiously embarrassed, "Are you saying it’s all my fault?

What’s so hard about enduring a bit? If you had, all this trouble would’ve been avoided.

Now you’ve grown wings, gone out into the world, have you forgotten how I and your sister-in-law treated you when you were little?

If it weren’t for me supporting your education, where would you have gotten the skills you have now?"

Upon hearing his own brother’s words, Yang Zhanyou felt an uncontrollable blaze inside, not this again; just because his big brother supported his education, did that mean he had to be under his brother’s threat for life?

Listening to the constant blame from the other end of the phone, Yang Zhanyou felt a sense of despair and his heart cooled significantly, "Big brother, I know you were good to me since our parents died young.

It was indeed not easy for you to support my education in the past, but over the years, as soon as I started making money, I sent it back to you, several times over what you spent on my education.

When I was studying, I didn’t do any less work at home; after finishing my own chores, I washed your clothes and looked after the nephews.

Even if I owed you, I’ve repaid it.

When my eldest nephew was getting married and the money fell short, I didn’t hesitate to lend you the money.

Do you plan to hold this favor over my head forever?" Yang Zhanyou’s last sentence was almost shouted through clenched teeth.

Yang Zhanquan, on the other end, felt even angrier than Yang Zhanyou, his face red with anger and his voice raised several decibels, "Fine.

So I’m threatening you, I should’ve left you to fend for yourself back then, not pay your tuition fees, so you wouldn’t be too big for your boots now, looking down on your big brother.

Yang Zhanyou, you ingrate, I should’ve left you alone when our parents died, abandoned you, for all these years I’ve taken so much trouble on your behalf, if it weren’t for your sister-in-law’s tolerance of you as a burden,

I probably wouldn’t have been able to get married because of you."

Listening to his big brother’s words, Yang Zhanyou felt a profound sense of powerlessness engulf his whole body.

It was always these words, forcing him to bow down to them, and he was truly fed up, "Big brother, just say what you want to do this time."

Aunt Yang had been eavesdropping all the while, and hearing that the conversation had finally turned to the main issue, she began to egg on, "One thousand yuan, there were so many people, and Village Chief Yang’s family isn’t easy to fool.

I see your second brother doesn’t take you, his big brother, seriously, keeping track of everything he’s given us these years, I don’t think it was given sincerely.

We should ask for more; after all, their family has money, they are all regular workers, their combined monthly wages are almost two hundred yuan.

They must have saved more than two thousand over a year, and they must have a decent amount by now. Our family of six doesn’t have a single person with a job. freewebnøvel.coɱ

We can’t save any money all year round, and if you don’t ask for more, your second brother won’t know gratitude. The second and third also need to get married; where are we going to get the money for that?"

Yang Zhan Quan, after hearing his wife’s words, hesitated for a while and no longer held back.

Anyway, the second son can earn money and isn’t short of it. He had given so much to the second son before, and it wouldn’t be right for the kid not to reciprocate, "Give me one thousand yuan to compensate the people of Yang Village. Many people got injured by your in-laws today.

If you leave, your sister-in-law and I still have to live here, so you should pay this compensation.

Otherwise, these people might report it to the police, and then the situation will get serious."

"How much did you say? One thousand yuan? Big brother, you’re overestimating me. Where would I get so much money?" Yang Zhanyou was utterly shocked. His monthly salary was at most seventy-eight, and his wife’s fifty-eight.

His son’s wasn’t high either, fifty-eight yuan. Altogether, just over a hundred. Do they not need to eat or drink with that little?

He still needed to maintain social relationships. In previous years, without anyone to help, he and his wife rented a place in the city; only in recent years did they finally get their own home.

But it was not a big house. His son would also need to buy a house when he got married. Before his marriage, every month he would send half of his money back to his big brother.

Although he stopped doing that later on, every once in a while his big brother would say life was tough and he was out of money, and Zhanyou would send him money.

Buying a house had cost him several thousand yuan; after his second son got married, he really didn’t have any savings left.

He had thought that his big brother would ask for one or two hundred yuan, but being hit with a demand for one thousand yuan truly scared him.

Hearing that he didn’t have it, Yang Zhan Quan’s face instantly darkened, "Second brother, don’t try to fool me. You, your wife, and son all have formal jobs.

Aren’t you making over a hundred each month? You can save up a thousand yuan in a year."

"Big brother, you just said it yourself — a year," Yang Zhanyou said, trying to suppress his anger. "All of us have to go without eating or drinking for a whole year to save up?"

Yang Zhan Quan was taken aback, then said, "How much could food possibly cost?"

"We have to pay for everything we eat and use, even the water bill for using water, and the cost of buying steamed buns. There are three of us, you tell me how much can be spent in a month.

Do my sister-in-law and I not need to maintain social relations? Can’t we live a decent life and always have to struggle? Saving fifty yuan a month would be pretty good.

It would take at least two to three years to save up one thousand yuan. I have expenses for housing, and my son is getting married and needs to buy a house, otherwise where will he live?

Buying a house drained my savings. If you had asked for one or two hundred yuan, I might go borrow some, but I don’t have one thousand yuan," Yang Zhanyou stated emphatically.

Upon hearing this, Yang Zhan Quan flew into a rage, "You can afford to buy a house but can’t spare me any money? I see how it is — you just look down on me and don’t want to help."

"Think what you like," he said. "Back in the day, your tuition fee for me was just several yuan a year, and high school didn’t cost much except for the monthly food expenses.

But even then, I had a part-time job and barely needed anything from you. If I owe you anything, it’s barely over a hundred yuan.

Over the years, I’ve given you at least three to four thousand yuan. I am not your ATM.

Also, that home isn’t just yours — after our parents are gone, I have a share in it too. At best, we were mutually dependent. When I could work, I did my own laundry and cooking. Besides paying my tuition, I helped with housework and cooking for your whole family, and over the years, I’ve sent money to you as well. I’ve paid off whatever I owed.

If you really want the money, I can give you two hundred yuan, but not a penny more.

This is the last time I’m giving you money. Don’t threaten me with this again.

If you actually consider me as a brother, we can keep in touch. But if you treat me like a fool, then we can cut ties right here," Yang Zhanyou said resolutely.
