Chapter 1251 The one who matters most is only himself
However, knowing is one thing, and being able to accept it emotionally is another!
I know, I will also feel unwilling and wronged!
Especially over the years, she had enjoyed the power and authority of being the mistress of the house. How could she be willing to just give it up to someone else for nothing?
Qin was in a state of confusion. A sharp light flashed across her lowered eyes, filled with coldness and hostility.
How could she still remember the 100,000 mulberry fields at this moment?
If a mistress came to this mansion and gave birth to a legitimate son, what would she and her son have left? How much would they get? Even if the 100,000 mulberry fields were taken back, it would not be hers!
Zhao Mu had made up his mind. He said to Zhao Shu coldly with a sullen face, "Let's not talk about other things. I want to ask you about Sangtian! Explain it to me clearly!"
Qin and Zhao Ye, mother and son, exchanged glances obliquely. Both of them felt a sinking feeling in their hearts, and their sense of crisis grew even stronger.
Zhao Shu, that little bastard, was so rude to Qin, but Zhao Mu didn't blame him at all and just brushed it off. It was obvious that in his heart, Qin was just that normal.
If the Qin family is like this, how about Zhao Ye and Zhao Zhai? How good can they be?
After all, the person Zhao Mu cares most about is himself.
Zhao Shu smiled and was about to speak when he saw the housekeeper hurried in from outside and bowed to report: "Master, Madam Shao sent someone to ask you something."
Zhao Mu was furious and sneered, "They still dare to come? Tell them to come in!"
The one who came was Sun Qian.
As luck would have it, Zhao Zhai also rushed back at this time and entered the door with Sun Qian.
As soon as he saw Sun Qian, he became angry and started to curse. Then, Sun Qian stared at him coldly with a stern face and frightened him so much that he dared not say a word.
Zhao Zhai came to his senses and realized that Sun Qian dared to be so arrogant in his own home. He felt even more angry and started to curse again under his breath.
Sun Qian didn't bother to be polite with him. He kicked with his toes calmly, and a small stone hit Zhao Zhai's ankle with a "bang". Zhao Zhai screamed "Ouch!" and fell forward heavily to the ground, holding his foot and crying in pain. Sun Qian sneered silently and walked past him with a swagger.
When meeting Zhao Mu, Sun Qian stated his purpose: to give silver.
The prefect ordered him to pay a compensation of 10,000 taels and to apologize in court. Zhao Zhai had already apologized on behalf of the Zhao family in court, and he came to collect the silver.
When Zhao Mu heard Zhao Zhai's apology on behalf of the Zhao family, his anger flared up again and he glared at Qin: Look at what a good son she has taught!
Qin bit her lip in grievance: He is not her son alone.
Sun Qian hadn't finished speaking yet.
Yesterday, Zhao Ye said in court that if he lied, he would pay a compensation of 100,000 silver taels, so the Zhao family should give him 110,000 taels of silver today.
Zhao Mu's rage grew even greater, and he looked at Zhao Ye coldly.
Zhao Ye has no explanation
How could he know this would happen!
Who knows what happened to the prefect? If he used torture to settle the matter early and forcibly take back the land deed, even if Zhao Shu came back, what would happen?
But--
To this day, Zhao Ye still hasn't figured out why the prefect did that.
Zhao Ye did not dare to deny what he said in court.
Seeing Sun Qian's attitude, he couldn't deny it either. He could only avoid his father's gaze guiltily.
Zhao Mu suppressed his anger: "Mr. Sun, that Sangtian——"
"Bring the silver first! I'm here to get the silver!"
"The 100,000 mulberry fields——"
"Mr. Zhao is the richest man in Yangzhou. Could it be that he can't come up with 110,000 taels of silver?"
