Chapter 777: Chapter 782 Clueless_1
Just as Qiao Jingu was about to kick in the door, it opened.
Tan Zhenghong asked coldly, "Who are you looking for?"
Normally, as the brother-in-law, he should treat his brother-in-law well when he came to visit.
But he remembered very clearly what Qiao Jingu had said: that it was only right to sell his sister, and that One Tael of Silver was too cheap.
In Qiao Jingu’s eyes, his sister was merely a tool for making money.
And he couldn’t bring himself to give a good face to such a heartless person.
"Don’t play dumb with me, I am Qiao Jingu, the idiot you married is my elder sister."
Qiao Jingu looked at Tan Zhenghong with disdain.
So much time had passed, and he didn’t know if his sister’s foolishness had flared up again, but he certainly didn’t believe that someone who had been foolish for so many years would suddenly recover upon getting married.
Tan Zhenghong warned, "If I hear you talking nonsense again, don’t blame me for being impolite."
Qiao Jingu snorted disdainfully, but seeing how strong Tan Zhenghong was, he didn’t dare say more, out of fear of being beaten up.
Why wouldn’t it be okay for him to go in and look for the big idiot?
She was most afraid of him, and she never dared to talk back to anything he said.
But as soon as Qiao Jingu lifted his foot, Fat Fat and Fatty started barking furiously as if they were about to pounce.
Qiao Jingu drew back his foot, and the two dogs calmed down again.
The two dogs knew their mission very well; they were there to guard the courtyard.
After a few repetitions, Qiao Jingu was still lingering at the entrance of the courtyard.
Tan Zhenghong said indifferently, "They are just paper tigers, only fierce in their own territory, and they pick on the weak but fear the strong."
"What if they bite me? Call out the idiot... I mean, my elder sister, I need to see her."
Qiao Jingu looked apprehensively at the strong dogs.
He hadn’t married a wife yet, and hadn’t provided an heir for the Qiao Family, he absolutely couldn’t fall here.
Tan Zhenghong felt helpless, couldn’t Qiao Jingu realize that he was mocking him?
Sigh, he always called others fools, yet he was the dullest, having reached the point of being unaware of his own stupidity.
As Qiao Duo’er appeared from the house, Qiao Jingu became more animated.
He said in frustration, "Look at the animals you’re raising, they don’t even recognize people!"
"They are very clever, they not only recognize people but also read their expressions," Qiao Duo’er said innocently.
It’s just that there are some animals they do not want to recognize, nor will they show a good face.
Qiao Jingu glared at the dogs, thinking that the two fat creatures would make a good stew for the New Year.
As if sensing Qiao Jingu’s malice, the dogs started snarling and baring their teeth again, even more fiercely than before.
Qiao Jingu quickly looked away. Damn it, what’s the point of having two vicious dogs?
After thinking for a while, he concluded that Qiao Duo must be keeping these two creatures to scare him!
Damn, that was too heartless!
Catching a glimpse of the watchful Tan Zhenghong, Qiao Jingu could only mutter to himself that he would settle this matter later.
"Hand over Qiao Mei’er quickly, or I’ll beat you to death!" 𝖓𝖔𝖛𝔭𝖚𝖇.𝔠𝖔𝔪
Qiao Jingu mentioned the real issue. He hadn’t come to fight with dogs but to find Qiao Mei’er.
He had asked all the way here, and people had said they saw a girl coming this way.
Qiao Duo’er pursed her lips, "Qiao Mei’er has sold herself off, I bought her, and she has nothing to do with you anymore."
"Where’s the Silver?" Qiao Jingu made no attempt to hide his greed.
"The Silver for selling oneself is hers to deal with, how she uses it is none of my business," Qiao Duo’er said with disgust.
Seeing the gleam in his eyes made her want to vomit. Even if Qiao Mei’er had countless faults, she had never wronged this brother.
Narrowing his eyes, Qiao Jingu said, "Then let Qiao Mei’er come out, I need to see her."
