Chapter 1074 Four Thousand Taels of Silver
They, the master and the servant, had to keep this matter to themselves and not mention a single word about it.
Anyway, as long as they don't mention it, there will be no evidence. Even if Qiao Xuan is suspicious, what can she do?
They haven't been back to the main house for many years, and the population is large and complex. If someone hears it, it will be no joke.
Mrs. Qiao's pale face was distorted with horror. Of course she understood this truth, but she was unwilling to accept it!
She was tired of saying this, but she was slapped in the face again and again.
Ling Ma said softly, "Then, then the four thousand taels of silver."
Before she finished her words, Mrs. Qiao swept the teacup beside her with a flick of her sleeve, making a crisp sound all over the floor, and even Madam Ling was startled.
"Give it to her." Madam Qiao resisted the urge to vomit blood, her face pale and she gasped: "Four thousand silver is nothing, do you think I can't take it out? Humph, such a mean person succeeds!"
"Yes, ma'am."
Nanny Ling responded, without showing it on her face, but in her heart she was sighing and smiling bitterly.
Four thousand taels of silver is definitely not a small sum.
The Third Master and the Third Lady only found out after they returned to the capital that the First and Second Masters in the main residence had intentionally or unintentionally excluded them, but the old lady turned a blind eye and did not care at all.
That's fine. After all, the third master and the third lady are not in the capital, so the eldest master, the second master and the old lady are naturally more familiar and closer.
But the lady accidentally discovered that the master and his men had cheated her family of a lot of money, and the old lady knew it clearly but still turned a blind eye, which was really unbearable.
The lady sorted out her property and there wasn't much left.
Now that I had to give the young master four thousand taels to pay off his debts, I was even more stretched.
It’s okay that the third lady is sick now, but when she recovers, she will have to go out for social events.
Fashionable clothes in the capital city need to be tailored, jewelry needs to be added, rouge and powder need to be purchased, there are also interpersonal relationships, various rewards, and a dowry for the eldest daughter, as well as clothes and jewelry.
Which one doesn’t cost money?
The second young lady is really cruel, with a vicious heart and ruthless hands.
Young master is such a fool, how could he be deceived by them?
It's fine if it's just a bet, but why do we have to write it down in black and white?
Mrs. Qiao was furious and was determined to take Qiao Xuan back - it was not that she was reluctant to part with Qiao Xuan, but only after taking her back would she have the right to punish and torture her.
However, Mr. Qiao San, Mrs. Qiao, and the first and second masters hesitated.
Yes, if we recognize Qiao Xuan, what if the Tian family gets angry? Can the Qiao family bear it? Don't let that happen and end up causing a lot of trouble instead of getting any benefit!
That's what it means to have a grievance but nowhere to complain.
Besides, the rewards that Qiao Xuan and Shao Yunduan received were all given by the emperor and the palace. If they were unwilling to give, who could force them to give? What could those two people not do? They had no shame, but my family could not refuse it!
To sum up, if you recognize someone, there may not be any benefits, but there will most likely be disadvantages.
In that case, let’s wait and see in half a year or a few months.
Qiao Xuan and Shao Yunduan clearly knew that her biological father and mother had returned to Beijing, but they did not come to visit. This is wrong on their part, and they will use this as an excuse to hold them accountable when the time comes.
Just play deaf and dumb for now.
Master Qiao San felt something was wrong and he wanted to take the person back.
Because he felt that Shao Yunduan would have a bright future, and if he didn't recognize him now, it might be too late in the future.
