Chapter 47 Treated as Interest
Mother Huang quickly comforted Qin, "Don't worry, Madam. The Second Master only suffered minor injuries. He will be back in three days at most."
She lowered her voice, fearing that others would hear their conversation.
Xie Lin and his men rode day and night, but Qin Kaiji had his family with him, so he naturally walked slowly.
Qin's heart finally settled down. She looked terrified, "Luckily Ji'er is fine. How could they have run into bandits out of the blue?"
Mother Huang couldn't answer her question.
Qin waved her hand and asked her to call Shen Zhiyan in.
The matter of Zhixu and Jingyun must be completely resolved before Jier comes back.
"Zhiyan, we can't wait until tomorrow. You should prepare the people tonight. If Jingyun knew this news, I don't know how sad she would be. Especially Song Wenjing. If he knew Jingyun was no longer the legitimate daughter of the Marquisate, how would he treat Jingyun?"
Qin was worried. "Your mother can be so cruel as to ignore Jingyun, but we can't ignore Jingyun. And your eldest brother, he is the prince of the Marquisate, we can't let him wander around outside forever."
Of course, Shen Zhiyan knew who Qin had asked him to prepare.
"Don't worry, Grandmother! I'll bring him here after nightfall. It's actually better to keep him here at the mansion. Not only can I control Mother, but I can also suppress this news."
He wanted to say that the Marquis' Mansion could no longer withstand any more turmoil.
Why hasn't he gone to the Imperial College these days?
When he doesn't want to go?
If he went, his classmates would inevitably point fingers at him.
When had he ever suffered such humiliation?
And all these humiliations were brought to him by his mother.
"There is one more thing. Our people have been keeping an eye on her for several days. That bitch Su Qingwan refuses to go out. We can't just sit there and wait for death. Even if she refuses to come out, I still have a way to ruin her reputation. Let's see who dares to marry her in the future!" Qin's turbid eyes were full of viciousness and cruelty.
"Grandchildren listen to their grandmothers." This is what Shen Zhiyan meant. Whether it was his mother or Su Qingwan, they had to pay a painful price for what they had done.
Shen Zhixu was still recovering from his injuries. Fearing that he might be depressed and this would be detrimental to his recovery, Qin sent Mother Huang to tell him about it.
Just let him rest and recover, and leave Su Qingwan's affairs to her.
She was mainly afraid that Shen Zhixu would get his hands dirty.
"What's going on with mother? First, Zhixu was divorced, then Jingyun had this embarrassing incident, and early this morning, news came out that she had died. Do you really think that others don't know what's going on? It's been spread outside for a long time that Jingyun came into the mansion to be Song Wenjing's concubine. Do you want to let me live?" Qin was just about to close her eyes and rest for a while when Chen Lanyue came.
Her face was dark and she was burning with anger.
Early this morning, her lifeless mother-in-law called her over and scolded her.
Those sisters-in-law said words to comfort her, but in fact they were all laughing at her.
Thanks to her mother's family, she almost has no place to stand in the uncle's house, and even Hongsheng is pointed at when he goes out.
Qin Shi had not expected that the news of Jingyun becoming a concubine would spread. She was stunned for a moment, then hurriedly spoke softly to comfort Shen Lanyue, "..."
But Shen Lanyue didn't listen to her at all. "Mother, I'm going to say this: if these things in the Marquis' Mansion affect Hongsheng's career, I will fight you to the death."
Qin patted her chest and assured Shen Lanyue that she would solve these problems immediately and would not implicate Jiang Hongsheng. She had to persuade Shen Lanyue temporarily.
It was true that Chen Lanyue came to the Marquis' Mansion today to vent her anger.
But she had other motives. She directly reached out to Qin and asked for silver. "Mother, please give me 30,000 taels of silver first. Hongsheng's affairs cannot be delayed for a single day. Because of the matter of the Marquis' Mansion, my mother-in-law called me over early in the morning and scolded me so much that I couldn't even raise my head..."
At the end, she acted pitifully while picking up a handkerchief and wiping away the non-existent tears from the corners of her eyes.
"Lan Yue, it's not that mother doesn't want to give it to you, but mother really can't afford so much silver!" Qin said as she picked up the wooden box containing the banknotes and showed it to Shen Lan Yue.
She had intended for Shen Lanyue to believe her, but she snatched the box from her hand and left. "I'll use these first. As for the rest, I'll owe it to you, mother. I'll come back in a few days to get it."
Qin's body tilted and fell on the couch. She stretched out her hands towards Chen Lanyue, unable to utter a word.
This is all her money...
Lan Yue has taken it all away, what should she do?
Now that vicious woman Xie Changning is so stingy that the whole family's food, clothing and other expenses all depend on her money!
Before Shen Lanyue even stepped out of the Marquis' Mansion, everything that had just happened reached Xie Changning's ears.
"Qin is willing to spend it. Although more than 20,000 taels of silver is not a lot, just consider it as interest!" As she said that, she gave Xie Nan a look.
Xie Nan understood immediately.
After getting the money box, Chen Lanyue planned to buy a set of high-quality study tools for Jiang Hongsheng first.
The carriage stopped at the door of Mo Yuxuan.
Chen Lanyue had just gotten off the carriage with the help of a maid, holding the money box, and she hadn't even stood firmly.
A figure flashed past her, and then her hand holding the money box was empty...
