Chapter 802 Compensation
"Well, I will pay you thirty thousand taels, and you can collect the remaining twenty thousand taels yourself!"
The old lady's family was quite wealthy, so she asked the old nanny to take out 30,000 silver notes on the spot and gave them directly to the first lady.
The eldest lady had no objection at all.
The old lady's personal savings can be given to anyone she wants. As long as she is not forced to take it or does not try to take the subsidy from the public school, it will be fine.
Their eldest wife doesn't need this little bit of kindness from the old lady.
"Second sister-in-law, should I send someone to take the 20,000 taels from you now or tomorrow?"
What this means is that all the money must be given to her by tomorrow at the latest.
Xiaomi was so angry that she almost spit fire. She said angrily with a gloomy face: "I'll ask someone to send it to my sister-in-law later!"
"That's good too. Then I'll wait for my second brother and sister-in-law."
"snort!"
Xiaomi still had 20,000 taels of silver in cash, but it also took up most of her private cash.
She took out the banknotes with heartache and sent Ling Ma to deliver it immediately. The sooner the better. Out of sight, out of mind!
The eldest lady also added two pieces of Shu brocade that her eldest son gave her as a gift last year, and a set of gorgeous and exquisite red gold head ornaments inlaid with gems, and personally delivered them to the Shao family the next day.
Qiao Xuan originally refused to accept the gift from the eldest lady, but she smiled and said, "Why don't you let me, your aunt, give it to you to calm you down? I have plenty of things like this!"
Qiao Xuan smiled, thanked him and accepted it.
The eldest lady talked to her for a while, then said, "You should hand over those lands to the stewards in the next two days and let them help manage them. Then you can go back quickly in the next two days. I will ask Xiao'er to keep an eye on it for you. Next time you come, I will see if there are any suitable stewards and hire a few to stay here to manage the land."
Seeing that Qiao Xuan was still a little confused, the eldest lady smiled and sighed, "Ting girl and your sister woke up with a man lying on top of them in front of everyone. Just wait and see. This matter is absolutely impossible to cover up. There will definitely be rumors spreading."
"Oh, there are so many people waiting to see the Le Zheng family laugh at their mistakes! But they still don't know how to behave! I don't know how many times I have cleaned up their mess. I won't care about it this time. Besides, it's impossible to suppress them completely. I might as well let them learn a lesson!"
"So you better leave as soon as possible and don't get involved at all."
Anyway, she doesn't have a daughter to marry, and her granddaughter is still young.
Besides, there is still a difference between the first wife and the second wife. When it comes to marriage, no one would be stupid enough to dislike the first wife because of the second wife's bad deeds.
If there really are such families, they would not even be interested in having a large house.
Qiao Xuan suddenly came to her senses. Yes, this matter was more or less related to her. If she stayed here, there was no telling if she would get into trouble again.
It would be better to just leave, cleanly and neatly!
Who cares if she makes a fuss?
Qiao Xuan was grateful and said, "Thanks to my aunt for reminding me, otherwise I wouldn't have thought of this! In this case, let's pack up and leave in two days."
"Well, I'll still let Qu Shan take you there."
"Thank you, Auntie!"
The eldest lady smiled and said, "This is nothing!"
That day, Qiao Xuan told this matter to Shao Yunduan, Fang and others, and everyone agreed to go back first.
After these few days here, everyone has seen enough, shopped enough, and it’s time to go back.
Besides, I can come back later if I want.
In fact, Uncle Shao was not used to living there and had been talking about wanting to go back, but Fang interrupted him and forced him not to say anything.
Now that we are talking about going back, Uncle Shao is the happiest.
