But March?
"If you can't cure him..."
"If I cannot cure you, I will take you to see Yun Tianji."
Mo Yunhan simply couldn't refuse this reason.
...
Inside the Qin residence,
Everything in the courtyard where Jiang Qingwan once lived was smashed by people hired by Su Yulan.
Knowing she was angry, Qin Minglang didn't dare to try to comfort her.
Once there was nothing left to smash, he gently coaxed, "Lan'er, since you don't like it here, why don't we move to the county princess's mansion?"
Su Yulan raised her hand and pinched his waist hard.
"Don't even think about taking my county magistrate's mansion. We can't go back until we get Grandpa's approval. We need to prepare well for the victory banquet tonight. Tomorrow we'll meet the emperor and I must secure the position of garrison commander. Only then, with military power and merit, can I return to the Su family with dignity."
Just then, the butler rushed over with several account books.
"General, Madam, it's almost the end of the month. The outstanding payments for goods and wages should be settled. Here are the expenses for the six shops. Please take a look."
Su Yulan had been pampered since childhood. Although she was forced to go to her fiefdom, she still lived a life of luxury and never had to worry about such things.
She waved her hand dismissively.
"Can't you handle these trivial matters yourself? Settle them the way they were before, and settle them the same way today. If you dare to embezzle even a single tael of silver, I, the county magistrate, will break your legs."
The steward said urgently, "Madam, in the past, it was always Jiang... Madam Jiang who gave it to us on the appointed day."
Fearing she would lose her temper again, Qin Minglang immediately said in a deep voice, "The storeroom key is in the old lady's hands. Go and get the silver."
Just as the housekeeper was about to speak, Zhang rushed into the courtyard, cursing and swearing, carrying the storeroom key in her hand. She immediately started yelling when she saw Qin Minglang.
"That bitch Jiang Qingwan, did she hear the rumors and take all the money from the house? Why can't we find a single silver note in the storeroom?"
She then looked at the housekeeper.
"Tell me, did you have an affair with her and embezzle all of the Qin family's money?"
The butler knelt down with a thud and cried out his innocence.
"Jiang Niangzi sends people to count and record the shop's profits every day, and she also handles all the household affairs. I just follow orders and have no idea that there is no money in the storeroom."
He suddenly thought of something else.
"By the way, Madam Jiang opened an account at Puheng Money Exchange, so she must have deposited her money there."
Zhang was extremely anxious.
"Hurry up and come with me to get it. What's the point of keeping your money in the bank?"
The butler looked troubled.
"Madam, you cannot withdraw the money. Puheng Money Shop has a rule that you must present the private seal and a receipt to withdraw the silver."
Zhang got angry and started cursing again.
“Minglang, you saw it, didn’t you? That bitch isn’t on the same side as the Qin family. That’s the Qin family’s money. I don’t believe a lousy money shop would dare to go against a second-rank general’s mansion.”
She made a move to lead a group to cause trouble.
Qin Minglang quickly stopped him.
"Mother, we can deal with this later. Once I get my official position after meeting the Emperor tomorrow, I'll have plenty of ways to handle it. Why risk losing face?"
Zhang suddenly realized that this made sense.
The butler held up the ledger in his hand.
"What should we do about this? We can't afford to delay."
Qin Minglang looked at Su Yulan.
Su Yulan snorted coldly, her eyes full of mockery.
"What? I've barely stepped inside, and you already expect me to subsidize the Qin family? This vast general's mansion can't even afford this little bit of silver?"
