Chapter 37: Strength
"Madam, this is an IOU written by my parents, asking me to come to your house to borrow some money from you.
If you ask me, since the Liu and Chu families are one family, why would we need to write an IOU? Isn't that too formal?"
The old lady's expression was so ugly that it could not be described.
Shen Zhao had a vague expectation of Liu Jinbao's performance.
Come on, make the old woman mad, keep talking nonsense and speak so shamelessly.
The old lady was filled with anger, and the second lady hurried forward. Damn it, she knew that this bastard was up to no good.
"Mother...I will escort him out of the house right now."
Liu Jinbao suddenly brushed away the second lady's hand that was reaching out to snatch the letter from him.
Dissatisfied, she said, "Eldest sister, what are you doing? The old lady hasn't agreed to lend me the money yet. If you don't help me, don't ruin my good fortune either."
"You..." The second lady was furious. Didn't he see how dark the old lady's face was?
Shen Zhao, who had remained silent, looked at Liu Jinbao and said, "Are you here to borrow money?"
Liu Jinbao grinned happily when he heard this. General Chu had never paid any attention to him before.
This time it was rare that she actually took the initiative to talk to him.
Liu Jinbao said familiarly, "Yes, Third Brother, our family has been in financial difficulty lately and has encountered some problems, so my parents asked me to come and borrow some money to take back."
He handed the letter to Shen Zhao.
Shen Zhao naturally took the letter from Liu Jinbao and opened it.
Took a look.
Wow, you are so arrogant.
The loan is one hundred thousand taels of silver!
That's not the point.
The point is, this letter is not only an IOU, it is also a threatening letter.
If she refuses to lend the money, Liu and Chu Renjie will be divorced, and the two legitimate sons of the Chu family, Shanjun and Shan'an, will also be taken away.
Lin Jiaojiao, who had been standing behind the old lady and watching the show silently, stood on tiptoe and took a look.
Mouth slightly open.
One hundred thousand taels! The Liu family really dared to ask for it.
They are not afraid that there will be too much money to kill them.
Shen Zhao handed the letter to the old lady, "Mother, this letter is written to you by the two elders of the Liu family. You should read it."
The old lady took the letter suspiciously. How could the two old men of the Liu family have the nerve to ask her to borrow money?
Over the years, she has always turned a blind eye to the second son's wife's support for the Liu family. Fortunately, the second son's wife is also a sensible person and has not done anything excessive.
The old lady carefully scanned the contents of the letter and almost gasped.
One hundred thousand taels of silver!
How dare the Liu family speak up?
Even if the Liu family were sold off, it wouldn't be worth 100,000 taels. They weren't here to borrow money, they were clearly here to rob.
These 100,000 taels were lent to the Liu family. How can they pay it back?
And this is threatening her to borrow money from outside!
If you don’t lend it, let Liu and the second brother get divorced!
Separation? They really dare to say it.
Huh! He's relying on the fact that the second son's wife gave birth to Shanjun and Shanan to control her.
Don’t even think about it!
"Liu, come here and see what your parents wrote!"
The second wife's heart skipped a beat.
He took the letter with trepidation.
When I saw the contents of the letter, I almost bit my teeth off!
No wonder the old lady was so angry.
Liu didn't believe that this was written by her parents. How could her parents be so stupid as to threaten the old lady to borrow money?
This must be the work of that bastard Liu Jinbao.
"Liu Jinbao, was this really written by my parents?"
My parents are not so confused that they dare to say such things.
Liu Jinbao snatched the letter from Liu's hand in annoyance.
"Eldest sister, you are doubting me. You can't even recognize my parents' handwriting after only being away from home for a few years. You really are my parents' biological daughter."
Shen Zhao narrowed his eyes slightly. This scene was really getting more and more interesting.
Liu Jinbao glanced at Liu impatiently.
"Eldest sister, you've become increasingly perfunctory towards our parents. Two years ago, you were still sending money home, but now that our family is in trouble and needs money, you're so stingy that you only gave them 15,000 taels.
Did your parents raise you to this age in vain? They wrote to you clearly asking for 15000 taels..."
The second wife was horrified.
How dare this bastard say such things out loud?
The people in the mansion always knew that she was subsidizing her parents' home. At the beginning of every month, she would ask her personal nanny to send some food, cloth and other worthless things to her parents' home.
The old lady and others wouldn't say anything even if they knew.
The silver she gave to her parents' home was wrapped inside and never seen in public.
He stepped forward and covered Liu Jinbao's mouth with his hands. "What are you talking about? When have I ever sent money home? Are you confused?"
Liu Jinbao's words changed the expressions of everyone present.
Chen Zhao suddenly realized that she seemed to know why the General's Mansion was so poor.
The old lady's blood boiled, and she called the maid beside her and whispered something to her.
The old woman quietly retreated.
Chen Zhao looked at the leaving old woman and thought that Liu was in trouble.
Chu Mu was deeply shocked.
Fifteen thousand taels! He suddenly understood why Ah Zhao asked his second sister-in-law for the account books of previous years.
He has been supporting his second brother's family.
Where did the second sister-in-law get the 15,000 taels to give to the Liu family?
Listen to the meaning of Liu Jinbao's words.
The second sister-in-law often gave money to the Liu family, and judging from the disdain in Liu Jinbao's words, 15,000 taels was too little.
One can imagine how much money the second sister-in-law usually gave to the Liu family.
That's why Liu Jinbao despises her so much.
Liu Jinbao grabbed Liu's hand and became more and more dissatisfied with his elder sister.
"What did I say? I'm your biological brother, born of the same mother. I'm in trouble now, so what if I ask you for some money? You obviously have so much money, so what if you give me some?
If you had been as open and honest as you were in the past two years and given me whatever I asked for, would my parents have to borrow money from the General's Mansion?"
"Shut up!" The second wife looked at Liu Jinbao with gloomy eyes, flashing with resentment.
Has he forgotten all the good things she has done for him over the years?
She agreed to everything that this bastard asked of her, and she didn't even care about Shanjun and Shanan this much.
"Then I'll shut up if you give me some silver, or any other valuables.
Do you still have any shops under your control? It would be best if you could give me two shops similar to the ones on Zhuque Street. They can fetch more than a thousand taels from you now than they did two years ago. My parents were foolish to sell those shops too early..."
"Pa" the second wife slapped Liu Jinbao in the face.
"Liu Jinbao, I told you to shut up!"
Chen Zhao's eyes dimmed slightly, Suzaku Street!
She also has two dowry shops on Zhuque Street.
Suzaku Street is the most prosperous street in Kyoto, with shops lining both sides of the road.
People come and go every day, and the flow of people is endless.
Land there is very expensive.
Liu, ah Liu, you are really very brave.
She thought that Liu had embezzled the property of the General's Mansion for the sake of her two sons.
Unexpectedly, she actually gave all the embezzled property to the Liu family.
Now it’s time to watch some fun.
Liu Jinbao has screwed the Liu family over badly this time.
I don’t know how the old lady will deal with Liu, the good daughter-in-law she is satisfied with.
"Liu Yuanxi, kneel down in front of me." The old lady grabbed Chu Miao tightly, and the veins on the back of her hand bulged.
The face of the Buddha had already been distorted beyond recognition.
The second lady knelt down in front of the old lady with a thud, trembling all over.
After you provide the great god cat to eat raw pickled body swap, the general tore his white moonlight
