Chapter 800 She had no choice but to agree
But how to write this IOU must be written according to what Qiao Xuan said.
He explained in detail what happened yesterday, how the money was owed, and how Mrs. Qiao and Qiao Wei signed and sealed it personally.
Mrs. Qiao had no choice but to agree, because both she and Qiao Xuan knew very well that this IOU was a leverage in Qiao Xuan's hand, and she would never pay the money back. Qiao Xuan would most likely not ask again.
So, she had no room for bargaining.
Mrs. Qiao's condition was that this matter must not be told to Mr. Qiao.
Qiao Xuan agreed, but she had to get the money within three days after returning to the county town.
Mrs. Qiao didn't have much money on hand now, so she could only give her one thousand taels.
She had no choice but to agree.
She knew very well that if this matter was reported to the master, Qiao Wei would definitely be beaten and the master would be disappointed in her.
She has been virtuous all her life and must not ruin her image in the master's eyes.
Unless one day her son becomes a high-ranking official and her daughter also becomes successful.
At that time, she had nothing to fear.
But now she knew very well that day had not yet come.
If the master gets tired of her and returns to the capital, her life will definitely be difficult, and she can't take the risk.
When Mrs. Qiao and Qiao Wei left, their faces were so gloomy that they seemed to be dripping with water.
When they returned to the inn, there were two bright red slap marks on Qiao Kou's face.
After that, Mrs. Qiao never looked for Qiao Xuan again. Instead, she met with Xiaomi again. Two days later, she returned to Weishan County.
If it had been in the past, Qiao Wei would have definitely complained to her father after suffering such a great "injustice", but this time she dared not say anything.
Mrs. Qiao warned her sternly, and no matter how unwilling and resigned she was in her heart, she dared not say another word.
Even when Mr. Qiao asked whether Qiao Xuan had helped them, Mrs. Qiao was speechless and could only smile and say yes. She also tactfully said that Madam Le Zheng was not that good to Qiao Xuan! So, she was even worse to her.
He is a very arrogant person, so it would be difficult to make friends with them.
Lord Qiao believed it to be true and felt quite sorry, but he let it go.
Le Zheng's family.
How could Xiao Mi take out 50,000 silver coins from her personal savings? Even if she could, she would not be willing to give it away!
So she gritted her teeth and told her husband, the Second Master, about it.
Of course, it is impossible for Xiaomi to tell the truth completely; she made some additions and deletions and changes to some extent.
The second master flew into a rage, yelling, "This is too much of a bully!"
Fifty thousand silver coins! He asked for fifty thousand silver coins right away! Isn’t this robbery? We are still a family, but you are bullying us like this!
The second master was furious and was about to drag Xiaomi to find the first lady to argue!
Although the second master has always been a freeloader and has never taken care of anything, he knows that he has no ability to compete with the first wife, so he has always been quiet.
Anyway, his sons are doing well, which makes him feel somewhat comforted.
However, it does not mean that the eldest wife can humiliate him or step on his head!
Xiaomi was startled and hurriedly grabbed him.
What she wanted was for her husband to share the debt with her, not to cause any more trouble.
How could she dare to ask the Second Master to go to the First Lady? She couldn't win against the First Lady's words. And the First Lady was right in this matter.
There is no way to say it anywhere.
Xiaomi then acted magnanimously, and tried to persuade the Second Master that "a harmonious family brings prosperity" and "forget it". The Second Master was very surprised, and although he kept a sullen face and said nothing, he also did not mention that he would go to find the First Lady.
