Zhang Caijin clenched his fists and argued hard.

"That's right! You did it all willingly! Whether you liked me or gave me food and clothes, it was all voluntary on your part and had nothing to do with me!"

Zhang Caijin seemed to have found a reason to stand his ground, and his back straightened a lot.

Seeing his selfish nature exposed, Jiang Wan's expression became even more sarcastic.

"Okay, so Mr. Zhang thinks it's my wishful thinking. Well, let's not talk about the past. Just consider it as my help to you."

Zhang Caijin's face turned pale. He considered himself a noble scholar and he cared a lot about face.

Now Jiang Wan actually said that she would help him, which insulted his self-esteem.

"Jiang Wan, don't let love turn into hatred! One thing is one thing, you can't insult me! What do you mean by aid? I didn't ask you to give me money!"

Hatred out of love?

Jiang Wan almost laughed out loud.

Hate exists, but what is love?

"Okay, Mr. Zhang, now that we've fallen out, don't blame me for saying harsh words."

Jiang Wan looked at the sky impatiently, "Mr. Zhang, I still say the same thing. The last time you returned my grain, it was wrong. When are you going to make up the difference to me?"

A pound of corn costs about seven cents, and a pound of brown rice costs five cents.

The difference between the two is two cents.

Fifty jin is one hundred wen.

One hundred coins was nothing to Jiang Wan now, but to Zhang Caijin, who had just borrowed money from all his relatives and was already poor, it was a considerable sum of money.

Zhang Caijin's anger was blocked and he couldn't breathe, his face turned red.

"Jiang Wan, do you have to calculate it so clearly? You clearly know my family..."

Zhang Caijin's attitude suddenly changed again at this moment, switching very smoothly from being furious to being sad and hurt.

Jiang Wan looked at him with disdain, but had to acknowledge Zhang Caijin's ability to bend and stretch.

"Why can't I settle the matter clearly? I have suffered so much at your hands, and I still can't get my things back? I lent you those fifty kilograms of grain, and I want to get every kilogram back. You switched the corn for brown rice, is this the upright conduct of a scholar like you?"

Every word Jiang Wan said was heart-wrenching, making Zhang Caijin's face turn red and filled with resentment.

The reason he came this time was to coax Jiang Wan. He wanted to coax her and make her obedient and well-behaved as usual and let him command her.

As a result, Jiang Wan completely changed her personality and turned her back on him.

Not only did she turn a blind eye to his active show of weakness, she also accused him of playing with her feelings and called him unfaithful and heartless.

Although Jiang Wan was right, Zhang Caijin did intend to use her in the past.

But when Jiang Wan said it directly, it still slapped him in the face.

Now Jiang Wan was still holding on to the fact that he had stolen and replaced the grain, which made Zhang Caijin want to leave immediately and never come to her house again.

"Jiang Wan, I misjudged you before. I always thought you were well-behaved, sensible, gentle and considerate, but I didn't expect you to be rude, unreasonable, cold and heartless. Okay, okay, remember what you said today. Even if we break up in the future, you must not regret it!"

Zhang Caijin flicked his sleeves and threatened Jiang Wan angrily.

Jiang Wan nodded without hesitation, "I don't regret it, and you shouldn't regret it either. If you come to my house again next time, I hope you bring money with you."

Upon hearing this, Zhang Caijin's face turned pale and blue, and his skin was shaking with anger.

"Okay, okay! Jiang Wan, let's see who of us will regret this!"

Zhang Caijin turned away.

Zhang Caijin was so angry that he felt dizzy and didn't notice Brother Xie Lan who was standing on his right side and had just returned from collecting firewood.

The two of them didn't know how long they stood there, or how much they heard.

Xie Jing looked at Zhang Caijin's angry back and said in a daze, "Brother, did I hear it right? Jiang Wan is actually going to break up with Zhang Xiucai!"

Xie Lan remained silent.

Xie Jing said again: "Didn't she say before that she would not marry anyone but Mr. Zhang? Why did she turn against him now? It's really strange!"

Xie Lan walked home, and Xie Jing followed closely, still talking to her.

"And judging from Mr. Zhang's tone, it didn't seem like an ordinary quarrel. Jiang Wan's attitude was also very firm. Could it be that Jiang Wan really doesn't like Mr. Zhang?"

Xie Lan glanced at him and asked, "Why are you so worried like an old lady?"

Xie Jing chuckled and said, "Brother, actually, I think Jiang Wan has really changed! I spent the whole night reflecting on myself last night. I was too prejudiced against her in the past! I will definitely not be so aggressive towards her in the future!"

This is true.

Xie Jing was not a bad person, he just had always been dissatisfied with Jiang Wan for bullying their family in the past.

In addition, he thought that Jiang Wan always asked Xie Lan for things and never gave anything in return, which made Xie Jing particularly disgusted.

Xie Lan has put in a lot of effort and sacrificed a lot to take care of this family, so Xie Jing couldn't bear to see Xie Lan suffer any longer.

However, last night Jiang Wan waved his hand and gave Xie Lan nearly two hundred taels of silver.

She didn't feel sorry at all and even said she would take care of the food for the entire winter.

Xie Jing saw the hundreds of kilograms of grain and dozens of kilograms of pork last night. At first he thought that they were all paid for by Xie Lan, and that Jiang Wan was greedy and asked Xie Lan to buy them.

It turned out that they were all bought by Jiang Wan.

Xie Jing was not stupid, he gradually figured it out.

Jiang Wan used to be a bad guy, but he has really changed recently.

And he was also wrong.

After a night of reflection, Xie Jing's attitude and opinion towards Jiang Wan have changed slightly.

Unexpectedly, I just witnessed the breakup between Jiang Wan and Zhang Caijin.

This made Xie Jing like Jiang Wan even better.

Regardless of whether Jiang Wan is sincere or not, as long as she can focus on the Xie family and not have any ambiguous relationship with other men, he is still willing to recognize her as his sister-in-law.

Xie Lan said nothing about Xie Jing's chattering.

The two of them walked into the courtyard.

Xie Jing smelled a strong and tempting meaty aroma, he put down the dry firewood and ran to the kitchen.

Jiang Wan was just about to serve the soup and rice when she saw Xie Jing rush in and said something casually.

"Are you back? It's time to eat. Bring the dishes to the main room."

Xie Jing looked at the wooden table next to him.

There were two large meat dishes on the wooden table, one was braised pork and the other was meat stewed with eggplant.

Xie Jing's mouth was watering with greed and his stomach was rumbling.

Xie Xueling covered her mouth and giggled, "Second brother, your stomach is singing!"

Xie Jing blushed and hurriedly went to serve the dishes.

The lunch was exceptionally sumptuous.

Jiang Wan would never treat herself badly, and now that she had money, she wanted to eat well.

There were two meat dishes for lunch, a stewed egg and a winter melon soup, and the staple food was glutinous rice.

Five full porcelain basins took up the entire wooden table in the main room.

Jiang Weiran had no idea about Lingzhi, and curiously asked Jiang Wan, "Wan'er, what's the special day today? Why do you cook so many delicious dishes?"

Jiang Weiran has been well taken care of in the Xie family these days.

He doesn't have to work in the fields or worry about trivial matters. He just needs to take care of the children and cook at home.

Therefore, his spirits were very good, much better than when he was in the Jiang family.

Jiang Wan thought for a moment and said, "Today is indeed a good day, Dad. From now on, we will have today's meals. I want to make you fat."
