Chapter 334: Housekeeper

Shen Wan was really annoyed.

Her face darkened and she pushed the Third Prince away.

The Third Prince's body was too weak. Even after Su Wen had carefully taken care of him, he was still as fragile as a chick.

But with just a slight push, his tall body fell to the ground like a piece of dry wood and rotten wood.

"Second Miss, how could you do this?"

Suddenly, the fat old butler of the Xiangyang Marquis Mansion hurried over.

"Second Miss, how come your temper hasn't changed at all?" He hurriedly helped the Third Prince up, his face so gloomy that it looked like water could be squeezed out of it. "No matter what the conflict is, you can't use force. After all, this is the prince!"

"According to the laws of the Wei Dynasty, assaulting the prince is a capital crime!"

"You are brave and fearless, but have you ever thought about the dangers you may bring to the Marquis?"

Shen Wan originally did not take the old housekeeper seriously. After all, he was just a servant who ran errands according to orders.

But since she heard Su Wen's words, she couldn't help but look at him differently.

Being able to come and go freely in Miao territory, this old butler must be a tough guy.

"I fought my own battle, what does it have to do with you?" Shen Wan smiled coldly, not hiding the mockery in her eyes at all. "You must have forgotten that the Marquis of Xiangyang and I have severed our engagement, and it was you who personally delivered the letter of severance."

"Don't worry, even if I poke a big hole in the sky in the future, it will definitely not implicate you."

"Besides, which eye of yours saw me hitting the Third Prince? We were just joking."

Having said this, she deliberately smiled and looked at the Third Prince: "Your Highness, am I right?"

This fall almost broke the Third Prince's waist.

At this moment, he was gasping in pain, and his heart was filled with hatred.

He thanked the eighteen generations of ancestors of the Shen family for giving birth to such a strong and powerful girl!

But when he heard this, he nodded like a chicken pecking at rice: "Yes, yes, I'm just kidding."

Shen Wan knew that this sickly person didn’t dare to admit it.

Firstly, he wanted to seduce me, and secondly, being beaten by a woman was not a glorious thing.

If he can't even beat a woman, who will support him to become emperor in the future?

Seeing that the third prince denied it flatly, the old butler didn't know what to say.

"Oh, I remember something." Shen Wan deliberately took out the IOU written by Shen Yan from the space and handed it directly to the old housekeeper. "This is what Shen Yan owes. Since you are here, you can pay the money for her."

IOU?

The more the old butler listened, the more confused he became.

He looked down and found that it was indeed Shen Yan's handwriting, but the scarlet handprint below was obviously not hers.

Shen Yan has a petite figure and slender fingers.

With just her fingertips, she couldn't create such a large handprint.

"Second Miss, may I know why this debt is owed?" The old housekeeper was full of suspicion.

"The money I used to save her." Shen Wan said impatiently with a sullen face, "If you don't believe me, you can ask the Third Prince. He was there at the time."

When he heard that it was about debt collection, the third prince nodded immediately.

Although he still has hope for the Xiangyang Marquis Mansion, it does not mean that he can let Chen Yan go.

During the time he was living on the streets in Miaojiang, this bitch insulted and abused him a lot!

Otherwise, how could he have instigated those beggars to destroy her innocence!

Since the Third Prince had spoken, the old butler had no choice but to believe it.

But looking at the amount above, he couldn't help but feel a little troubled.

Ever since the storehouse was robbed, the Marquis of Xiangyang began to tighten his belt and even his own fat waist became two inches smaller!

Now such a huge debt suddenly appears, it is obvious that the Duke of Xiangyang wants to sell everything he has!

"Second Miss, I really can't make the decision on this." He thought for a moment and said with a smile, "I have to report this matter to the Madam."

"Do you take me for a fool?" Shen Wan's face darkened, and she immediately became annoyed. "I heard from the old master of Medicine King Valley that there has been no news of your wife since she left the capital. You can't even find her, and yet you want me to look for her?"

"If you want to shirk your responsibility, just tell me the truth and don't talk to me about this useless stuff."

She snatched the IOU away and said unhappily, "Let's go to the government office now!"

"I just don't believe it. With all the evidence, you, the Xiangyang Marquisate, can still deny this!"

When the old housekeeper saw this, his face turned pale with fright.

Marquis Xiangyang is a man who cares a lot about his reputation. If his reputation is damaged, he will definitely take his anger out on himself.

"Second Miss, calm down." The old butler hurried forward, smiling cautiously, "Then I, this old servant, can inform the Marquis, please?"

"You know, with such a large sum of money, I really can't make the decision."

He really couldn't make the decision. After all, this was not something that could be solved with just a cart.

But this woman's appetite is really getting bigger and bigger. According to the situation, even the underwear of Marquis Xiangyang will be stripped off by her.

"Okay!" Shen Wan thought for a moment, then looked up at the old housekeeper, "But you can't leave until the debt is paid off."

"What if you run back to the capital? Do you think I'll have to chase you?"

Upon hearing this, the old housekeeper smiled and said, "Don't worry, Second Miss. I will send a pigeon to write a letter to the Marquis right away."

In fact, he had no idea whether the Marquis of Xiangyang would acknowledge the debt.

If he wanted to repay his debts, the Marquis of Xiangyang would have to sell his land.

"Don't call me Second Miss anymore, and don't try to get close to me!" Shen Wan rolled her eyes and said impatiently, "Call me Princess!"

Although he was clearly dissatisfied, the old housekeeper still listened to the advice and said respectfully, "Yes, Princess."

Seeing that he was so obedient, Shen Wan patted his shoulder with satisfaction.

The old butler only felt a slight pain in his shoulder, as if he had been bitten by an ant.

But where do these ants come from in the middle of winter?

"You're quite sensible." Shen Wan sneered, her words full of warnings, "But let me be frank. If you dare to play any tricks behind my back, I don't mind tearing my face apart."

Before she finished speaking, she went downstairs without looking back.

Looking at her gradually receding back, the old housekeeper couldn't help but look puzzled.

"Is she really the Second Young Miss?" he asked uncertainly.

I had heard that the ugly girl had become beautiful, but I didn't expect her to be so beautiful.

Her temperament has changed too.

In the past, that ugly girl was very easy to fool; all she had to do was play the victim and everything would be solved.

But now, it seems that she only has eyes for money.

The Third Prince sneered, "Who else could it be if not her?"

"I advise you to be more agile and not to make her angry."

"Perhaps you don't know that even the old master has to give her some leeway now."

After hearing this, the old butler felt his palms become wet.

With the old tutor as his backer, Marquis Xiangyang will have to repay this debt.

He sighed and went back to his room to start writing a letter.

Although it is far from here to the capital, if I send a letter by carrier pigeon, I believe I will receive a reply from the Marquis of Xiangyang soon.
