I became the Prime Minister’s Adored Wife after Transmigrating
Chapter 107 - 107 Take Care, I Won't See You Off107 Take Care, I Won’t See You Off
“In your eyes, Ah Tao’s marriage can be used as a bargaining chip.” Zhao Lanhua sat upright opposite her, her cold voice filled with dissatisfaction.
“Look at what you’re saying, in-law. No matter what, Ah Tao has been in our Ji family for fifteen years! Although I’m not Ah Tao’s biological grandmother, I naturally care about her. I raised her when she was young, she needs to care for me when I’m old. This is reasonable!” Madam Xie chuckled and revealed her motive. “By the way, where’s Ah Tao?”
Zhao Lanhua quietly stared at the smiling Madam Xie. At this moment, she understood what shamelessness meant.
The moment Ji Zhao walked into the central room, Madam Xie’s expression suddenly changed. She rushed in front of Ji Zhao aggrievedly and cried loudly, “Ah Tao, it’s Grandmother who has let you down! Boohoo…”
Madam Xie originally wanted to hug Ji Zhao’s arm and put on a show of a grandmother and granddaughter hugging each other and crying!
In the end, Ji Zhao quietly avoided her approach and exposed her expressionlessly. “You don’t visit unless you have something to ask. Why don’t you just say what your motive is?”
“I…” Madam Xie did not expect Ji Zhao to be so direct. She had originally prepared a basket of lines, but they were useless.
“Ah Tao, Grandmother knows that you must still hate me in your heart, but I had no choice! Now that your Uncle Pan is sick, and that brat Ji Huai is causing trouble outside, he owes a lot of gambling debts! Those debt collectors even chased him to my house… Do you still remember your cousin, Ji Huai? When you were young, didn’t he always bring chicken drumsticks for you to eat? Ah Tao, you can’t be ungrateful!”
“How much?” Ji Zhao frowned and interrupted her unhappily.
“What?”
“How much does Ji Huai owe in gambling debts?” Ji Zhao narrowed her eyes vigilantly and asked in a low voice.
“Five… five hundred taels…” Madam Xie silently gestured with her hand and swallowed nervously. “Ah Tao, do you really have a way?”
“No.” Ji Zhao shook her head calmly. “There’s nothing I can do. You should find someone else.”
“Ah Tao, I heard that you’re doing quite well in the county city. Didn’t you work with that restaurant?” Madam Xie hurriedly leaned forward and asked anxiously, “I know 500 taels of silver is a little too much, but think about it carefully! Your cousin Ji Huai treated you so well in the past!”
Ji Zhao scoffed. Before she turned around and left the central room, she did not forget to give Zhao Lanhua a look.
“Ah Tao, where are you going? I haven’t finished talking!”
“Hey… Ah Tao, wait for me!”
Madam Xie thought that Ji Zhao had left because she wanted to return to her room to get her money!
In the end, she waited for more than an hour, but Ji Zhao did not return.
“The person who Ah Tao is indebted to is the deceased Old Master Ji, not you,” Zhao Lanhua said coldly. “Besides, married daughter are like water that has been splashed out. Our Shen family will not welcome you in the future!”
“Are you chasing me away?” Madam Xie was furious. She slammed the table and growled, “How good of a girl is Ah Tao? When your Ji family came to propose, I was originally unwilling. It was you who said that you would take good care of Ah Tao and help our family! Why have you changed your words now?”
“Take care, I won’t see you off.” Zhao Lanhua smiled elegantly and left.
Madam Xie did not expect that she would not even be able to get a bowl of rice. She puffed up her cheeks angrily and stomped her feet angrily.
At this moment, a rich fragrance floated over from the Shen family’s kitchen, making one drool.
Madam Xie swallowed her saliva and walked into the kitchen.
