Rebirth of the Charming Girl in Space

 Chapter 244: 

Poisoned and Maimed


In the past few days, Murong Xue had offended Murong Qing, treating her coldly and keeping her at arm's length. From now on, she might treat her as an enemy.


Unable to contain his anger any longer, Murong Liang kicked Murong Qi viciously. "You... you unfilial son! Plotting against your elder brother like this, your mother is now bedridden because of you. How could I have a son like you!"


Murong Qi lowered his head, his eyes filled with ruthlessness, showing no remorse. "Who made you split up big brother in the first place? If you hadn't separated him, everything that big brother has now could have been mine. Do I need to scheme for that? Do I need to spend a month without returning home?"


Murong Lingran sneered inwardly, thinking he was a fool. If they hadn't separated from the main family, she wouldn't have invested the gold bars from her space to build houses and buy land with this pack of wolves around.


"You!" Murong Liang was furious. "Murong Qi, you're the one who suggested to your mother split up big brother, but she could have ignored you.”

"I was the one who suggested that Mother separate big brother, and she could have ignored me. So, if you want to talk about responsibility, yours is even greater. You are the head of the family, but you couldn't stop Mother's decision!"


"Enough!" Murong Zhe coldly declared, "Making mistakes yet remaining unrepentant. Murong Qi, from the depths of your heart, it seems you don't consider me your elder brother. Now, I tell you, you won't be my brother anymore. Walk your path, and I'll walk mine. I no longer have a brother like you!"


"Big brother!" Murong Qi was startled.


Murong Liang's anger was brewing. "Don't call him big brother. With your actions, you're unworthy to be his brother!"


He completely understood his eldest son's decision.


If his younger brother plotted against him like this, he felt he would be furious enough to just cut him down!


After listening for a while, Xiang Zimo, who had investigated the Murong family recently, knew that the brothers were not on good terms. He raised his eyes, and a sudden thought crossed his mind. "Money Manager, you mentioned earlier that he owed only ten taels of silver. Is that correct?"


Money Manager nodded reluctantly. "Yes."


"In that case, ask for the money back. I'll forgive you this time." Xiang Zimo said indifferently.


Murong Qi was taken aback, suddenly realizing he still owed ten taels of silver. His expression changed drastically, and he begged his father, "Father, I... I was wrong. I shouldn't have talked back just now. But now, I really don't have a single wen on me. You surely have ten taels of silver. Please help me repay it."


Murong Liang sneered, "You said last time when you came back that all your money was deducted due to mistakes. Now I know you've gambled it all away. Murong Qi, I'll tell you, even after we separated, I never used a single copper coin of yours. You were so stubborn just now, handle it yourself."


Having said that, he left angrily.


"Father!"


Murong Qi immediately turned to Murong Zhe, but Murong Zhe didn't spare him a glance.


Xiang Zimo looked at the Money Manager with no expression, "How does the gambling den handle actual debts?"


Money Manager, with a bitter face, nodded. "If they have money, they pay. If not, they use wives and daughters as collateral. If there's no money or family members, for a debt of ten taels, they'll be poisoned and maimed, sent out to beg for money on the streets for a few years."
