"Is it bad luck or your lack of ability? If you don't know how to do business, hand over the power as soon as possible, otherwise you will lose all your family fortune." Qin Su'an raised his voice.
I knew they were planning this a long time ago. The idea was too wonderful. Did they think Xie Wanyun was easy to bully?
She said slowly, "These businesses belong to my Xie family. They are my dowry. Who should I give them to?"
Wei said, "Wanyun, you're wrong. Since you've married into the Yuanxing Marquisate, you're a Qin family woman. What's the difference between your family and mine?"
Xie Wanyun's lips curled up in a hint of sarcasm. "Really? But this house is also the residence of the Xie family of the Zhenguo Mansion."
Wei's face suddenly turned red.
Qin Su'an angrily said, "Xie Wanyun! Don't try to cheat me! This is clearly your own fault. You lost the business and caused your two wives to lose all their money. You can't just give me an explanation, right?"
"Mr. Qin is also a former official, how can he speak without thinking? Since it's an investment, there will be gains and losses. Is there any business in this world that is guaranteed to make a profit? Didn't the two old ladies receive dividends a few days ago? You can't just keep the profits and deny the losses, right? That wouldn't make sense no matter how you travel around the world."
Qin Su'an was so blocked that he couldn't speak.
Xie Wanyun continued calmly, "The two old ladies entrusted me with this on the day they signed a written agreement. It's written in black and white that they voluntarily invested the money and took the risk. Are they going to refuse to pay now that they've lost money?"
Several people looked at each other in bewilderment. To be honest, it wasn't really the two old ladies' fault. The document was densely written with tiny calligraphy, and how could they, with their dim eyes, read it clearly? Even if Qin Su'an was there, he probably wouldn't have the patience to read it one by one.
Besides, everyone thought that Xie Wanyun was used to doing business, and these should be routine terms. Who knew that she would lose money this time, or did she deliberately dig a big hole for them?
Seeing Qin Su'an's worthlessness, Madam Qin winked at Wei. Wei understood and, with a sorrowful expression, said, "Wanyun, it's not that we don't want to admit our debt. The truth is, this money is the coffin money for you and me. You said so confidently that you could only make money, so we gave it to you. And now you're saying it's a loss. How can anyone bear this? Besides, this was all caused by your negligence. You brought the goods back and left them in the warehouse without paying any attention. Now they've rotted and spoiled. It's your responsibility, isn't it?"
When Xie Wanyun saw that the Qin family had tried to use soft tactics after their hard tactics failed, he frowned slightly and remained silent.
When they saw that she didn't say anything, they thought she had admitted defeat and they all looked happy.
Xie Wanyun spoke again, his voice cold and crisp.
"I was indeed negligent in this matter, so I bear the greatest loss. I didn't ask the two old ladies for the remaining payment. I paid it all myself to the Mobei merchant. If you don't believe me, you can confront the merchant. I'm not a saint, and it's impossible for me to consider everything carefully and avoid any mistakes. I lost money on this business trip, and I accept it. You should also accept your fate, old lady and madam."
Madam Qin was so angry that her face turned ashen. She could no longer hold back and personally stepped in. She cleared her throat majestically and said, "Xie Wanyun, there's no need for your eloquent arguments. No matter what, you lost money on this business trip, so you have to bear the loss and return our capital! Also, my Qin family can't afford a daughter-in-law like you."
Suddenly shouted: "Su'an!"
"Old lady, I'm here." Qin Su'an quickly agreed.
A trace of disgust flashed across Xie Wanyun's phoenix eyes.
Madam Qin said sternly, "Why don't you divorce a daughter-in-law like this right away? Are you still keeping her for the New Year?"
Qin Su'an straightened his back, puffed out his chest, and shouted, "Of course I want to divorce her! I've wanted to divorce such an unvirtuous and unfilial woman for a long time!"
Xie Wanyun's cold eyes swept over the few people, and suddenly he snorted coldly from the tip of his nose.
The Qin family all shuddered.
