Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations

Upon the arrival of the four Qin brothers at the Su Family, Qin Zhenzhen instructed Su Cheng and his sister to fetch the village chief, Qian Youcai.

Su Ning and her brother explained that their land contract was kept at the village chiefs residence, as he had served as the guarantor when their uncle lent them money.

As the sun began to set, the villagers returning home from the fields indicated that it was an opportune time to find the village chief at home.

However, Su Cheng and his sister returned empty-handed, unable to secure the village chiefs presence.

Qin Zhenzhen pondered for a moment and came to a realization.

The village chief and Su Bins uncles family belonged to the same sect. When Su Bins parents pa.s.sed away, these individuals with the Qian surname joined forces to bully them.

If even their own uncles were so terrible, it was no wonder others harbored jealousy towards Su Bins family.

Brother, lets go to the village chiefs house together, Qin Zhenzhen suggested.

She believed that with the presence of her four brothers, they would be able to persuade the village chief to a.s.sist them.

Upon reaching the village chiefs residence, they found Su Cheng and his sister still pleading with the village chief.

Uncle Village Chief, were telling the truth. My Third Sister-in-law is wealthy and wants to redeem the contract, Su Cheng pleaded earnestly.

The village chief seemed reluctant to hand over the contract.

Qian Dashans family had even made arrangements with the buyers of the fields. Qian Dashan claimed that they would receive a portion of the profits after the sale.

Youre just children, what do you know? Theyve fooled you with mere words.

Your Third Sister-in-law was forced into your family, and your Third Brother doesnt even like her. So shes just a stranger to you.

The safest option is to keep the contract with me, Uncle Village Chief.

Qin Zhenzhen and her brothers listened attentively to their conversation.

The presence of Qin Zhenzhens four imposing brothers made the village chief feel increasingly embarra.s.sed and fearful.

Qin Zhenzhen chuckled. Su Bin and I have a legitimate marriage contract, and we are a family. How can we be considered strangers?

The village chief stumbled over his words as he tried to explain himself. It was

Su Bin who entrusted the contract to me. In principle, I only recognize Su Bin.

Qin Zhenzhen sneered. Im afraid youve already sold the fields before Su Bins arrival.

Dont think Im unaware of your actions. Youve already made contact with the buyers. Its the He family from Dahe Village, and theyve agreed to inspect the fields tomorrow. Just like last time, theyll pay the money and secure the land contract without the Su Familys knowledge.

What?! Su Cheng and Su Ning exclaimed in shock. Wasnt the deadline three days away?

They were planning to sell the land within just one day!

Third Sister-in-law, you have to retrieve the contract for us! Su Cheng pleaded urgently.

Qin Zhenzhen nodded, giving them a rea.s.suring look.

The village chief couldnt fathom how Qin Zhenzhen had learned about their arrangement with a reputable buyer.

However, he refused to admit it. Theres no truth to what youre saying! Where did you hear this? Or did you simply make a.s.sumptions?

Qin Dalong sneered. No one needs to inform us about this! We are good people, and the truth always finds its way to us!

My sister is married into the Su Family, and she is an integral part of it. You will not secretly sell her familys land!

We have already prepared the owed amount. We will pay the debts and retrieve the contract! Qin Dalong stated firmly.

Fearful of provoking Qin Dalong and his brothers, the village chief reluctantly took the contract and agreed to accompany them to Qian Dashans home.

Qian Dashan and his family had no choice but to face the impending confrontation.

Qin Zhenzhen retrieved 12 liang.

This is the 10 liang I borrowed from your family, and the remaining 2 liang is the interest.

Ms.. Lin shouted indignantly, I told you that 2 liang should have sufficed, and

20 liang should have been enough!
