Chapter 751 - 751 752 Teasing Him

Chapter 751: Chapter 752: Teasing Him Chapter 751: Chapter 752: Teasing Him This person really knows how to shamelessly reach new heights.

Chiang Xiao held back a laugh and shook her head, “Great-Uncle, I didn’t say a hundred.”

Chiang Songtao’s eyes brightened, “You mean a thousand? That amount I think is feasible.”

In his heart, he felt both joy and envy.

Everyone said that Chiang Laoer had made quite a bit of money, but he never imagined that it would be so much! To be able to fork out a thousand bucks on the spot for a cash gift!

He quickly continued, “Then this thousand will be the cash gift you give to Baohe. There’s another matter I want to discuss with you. I just mentioned that our family is short by two thousand three hundred, right? Including the thousand yuan cash gift from you, we’ll still be lacking thirteen hundred. I’ll borrow another thousand from you, no, just eight hundred, and when Baohe’s wife gets her salary, we’ll pay you back half of it every month. How does that sound?”

A thousand?

A thousand for a cash gift, and then to borrow another eight hundred from him?

Chiang Xiao felt like she was going to die of laughter.

She admitted that she was being a bit malicious in toying with Chiang Songtao, but who told him to be so shamelessly outrageous?

Chiang Songhai looked at Chiang Xiao somewhat puzzled.

He couldn’t believe that Chiang Xiao would agree to give a cash gift to Chiang Baohe, let alone a thousand!

He guessed that Chiang Xiao meant to give one yuan!

But he was too embarrassed to voice this thought, watching as Chiang Songtao misunderstood to such an extent and kept on talking. For the first time, he felt embarrassed on behalf of his older brother.

“Big brother…”

Before he could finish, Chiang Xiao already said with a smile to Chiang Songtao, “Great-Uncle, you’ve misunderstood my meaning.”

As she spoke, she shook her index finger, “What I mean is,” she paused, then continued, “We won’t give a single penny.”

“What did you say?” Chiang Songtao slapped the coffee table hard as he stood up, his eyes glaring at Chiang Xiao, “Chiang Xiao, you, you, you what do you mean by this?”

“My meaning is very clear. Chiang Baohe’s marriage has nothing to do with us, we won’t give the cash gift, and we won’t lend the money. Not a hair, not a cent!”

Chiang Xiao said, her face cooling, “That’s our position. Also, we’re really not family anymore, please recognize this fact, Great-Uncle. Of course, when I call you Great-Uncle, it’s only because I am being polite, it doesn’t represent anything else.”

Chiang Songtao was so angry he nearly passed out.

Chiang Xiao must be doing this on purpose just to tease him!

If she wasn’t giving a cash gift, why didn’t she say so straight out? And instead indicated with her finger!

“Chiang Xiao, do you have no respect for your elders? All these matters, it’s not your place to butt in!”

“How is it not my place? Make it clear, this is my home,” Chiang Xiao retorted with a cold laugh.

Chiang Songtao was so infuriated he could hardly breathe, and he turned sharply to Chiang Songhai, “Second, are you just going to ignore Chiang Xiao? Letting her speak out of turn like this? And what about Baohe? That’s your own nephew!”

Chiang Songhai took a sip of his tea and then set it down again.

He had to admit, his palate had been spoiled by the special tea leaves Chiang Xiao provided; he really couldn’t stomach this inferior tea anymore.

“Second, you’d better think it through! Will you and your wife need the support of your nephews and grandnephews in the future? I’m telling you, Baoguo is doing very well now! And there’s Yuequn, you know, he will be a city person! And as for Chiang Xiao, she will eventually marry!” Chiang Songtao continued with a stern face.

In the past, Chiang Songhai really did listen to all this talk.
