The Found Stepmother, Your Dowry Is a Bit Too Much

On Vermilion Bird Avenue, a wedding procession stretching for miles advanced in grand splendor.

The gilded bridal sedan, carried by sixteen bearers, shimmered under the sunlight. The embroide...

Chapter 294 Memories 2 (2/2)

"Give them three hundred taels and let them go!" Cheng Qingli's cold voice rang out, causing everyone present to pause in surprise.

Yaoyue nodded, took the three hundred taels of silver notes, handed them to Wu San, and said coldly, "Take the silver and get out!"

"Girl? This..." Qin Dong didn't expect that this young girl would be willing to help him.

Thinking that Qin Lou had fallen into the hands of these people, Qin Dong would rather hand it over to this young girl.

Cheng Qingli simply ate her noodles quietly, without looking at the others.

Wu San was dumbfounded. He hadn't expected that things would go so smoothly, and he was about to get his hands on Qin Lou, when suddenly this unexpected obstacle appeared.

Thinking of this, Wu San looked at Cheng Qingli again.

Originally, he thought that since the girl's identity was unknown, he wouldn't make things difficult for her.

But now it seems that even though I was polite to her, she actually tried to take my things.

It seems I don't need to be polite with her anymore.

"Young lady, I advise you not to interfere in the affairs of our Yue family!" Wu San said to Cheng Qingli with displeasure.

Wu San's gaze towards Cheng Qingyu was also extremely vicious. If Cheng Qingli dared to interfere in this matter, he would definitely not let her off easily.

"The Yue family? Which Yue family? I had no idea that such a 'remarkable' Yue family had appeared in the capital." Cheng Qingli said with a slight sneer.

"What are you still standing there for?" Cheng Qingli gestured to Yaoyue, who was standing to the side, and quickly asked her to leave.

"If you know what's good for you, take the money and leave! My young lady is not someone your little Yue family can afford to offend." Yaoyue handed the silver notes to Wu San, looking at him with a mocking expression.

Not to mention the Yue family, which I've never heard of in the capital, even the Leng family would show them respect when they see their young lady.

Who could blame them when their young lady was the Empress's most beloved younger sister?

"Qin Dong?" Wu San looked at Qin Dong, his words full of warning. He knew that Qin Dong's son, Qin Minghao, was still in their hands.

If Qin Dong were to hand over Qin Lou to someone else and ruin his master's plans, they would certainly not let Qin Minghao off easily.

"Thank you for your kindness, Miss. However, he still has my son's IOU in his possession," Qin Dong said respectfully to Cheng Qingli.

He was even more determined in his heart that he would rather give Qinlou to Cheng Qingli than to those wolves in sheep's clothing.

"Give me the IOU, take the money and get out of here!" Cheng Qingli said, looking at Wu San and extending her hand.

“Miss, since you have no connection with Qin Dong, there’s no need for you to offend the Yue family for his sake. It won’t do you any good!” Wu San dared not take the three hundred taels of silver and leave.

The master wants Qin Lou.

It's not three hundred taels of silver.

If he really goes back like this, his master will not let him off.

"What is the Yue family? How dare they threaten my young lady? My young lady is the Cheng family's young lady. What, does the Yue family want to deal with my young lady?" Yaoyue blocked Cheng Qingli's way with a dissatisfied expression and scolded her.

Wu San was startled. He hadn't expected that the girl who was about to ruin his plans was actually a young lady from the Cheng family.

The Yue family is just a merchant family. They can deal with vendors like Qin Dong without much trouble, but they really don't have the ability to deal with the Cheng family.

Thinking of this, Wu San could only reluctantly say, "Miss Cheng, please forgive me. I was blind and didn't recognize you. But, I didn't bring the IOU with me..."

Wu San thought that the Cheng family's young lady couldn't possibly be keeping an eye on things here forever.
