Chapter 1534 Shared Wife 8
Prime Minister Hua even attempted to use his long-held high position to crush Song Jinhuan's unruly arrogance.
What is undeniable is his reluctance to make this trip, a reluctance that, for some unknown reason, he felt compelled to swallow his pride.
For a moment, a very strange atmosphere filled the field.
Despite being the powerful faction of the Prime Minister's residence, when faced with the lone young girl, it was as if they were the ones being bullied and suffering a great injustice.
Song Jinhuan was disgusted.
"What do you mean by disturbing people's sweet dreams so early in the morning and putting on such an act?"
The girl stood on the steps, glancing down at the crowd.
The Prime Minister's wife, who was closest to her, also stepped back to her original position at this moment.
Prime Minister Hua recalled that line of text, and putting aside his relationship with the girl, treating her as an honored guest would be a very simple matter.
However, as the other party's biological father, his unmet need for control makes him feel that his patriarchal authority is being challenged.
He cursed his unfilial daughter in his heart a few times before softening his tone and saying, "You've been away from home for so long, it's time to go back."
"Don't throw a tantrum."
"Su Xin has already vacated Yaoguang Pavilion, and you can live there from now on."
Song Jinhuan's face grew increasingly grim with each of his words.
This whole thing made it seem like she was being unreasonable.
Her gaze swept over everyone, revealing no trace of sincerity, before she smiled slightly and said, "The inn is quite nice."
Hua Suxin looked reproachful. "Sister, Father has put aside his official duties to come and invite you. He hopes you can come back with us."
Song Jinhuan: "One thousand taels."
Hua Suxin asked, puzzled, "What?"
Song Jinhuan: "Give me a thousand taels, and I'll go back."
She suspected that the Jiang family had put pressure on the Prime Minister's residence, which was why these people had come here in such a large group.
She had no expectations for their familial affection, but she couldn't let the grievances she suffered the day before go unpunished.
Prime Minister Hua was overjoyed, "I'll give it to you as soon as we get back to the manor!"
Song Jinhuan turned around and ran upstairs.
The joy on Prime Minister Hua's face vanished instantly.
Hua Deyou stood to the side, hands behind his back, gazing at the beam, and sighed, "Greedy! Greedy! Truly greedy!"
Hua Suxin spoke up from the side, "Father, it seems that my sister will only return to the Prime Minister's residence after she has received the thousand taels."
Prime Minister Hua's blood boiled instantly. "Does he think I'd cheat on him once I'm in the Prime Minister's residence?!"
The Prime Minister's wife had already summoned a guard and instructed him, "Go to the steward and fetch a thousand taels of silver. Go quickly and return immediately."
Before the guards had even left, a commotion came from upstairs.
A dozen pairs of eyes turned to look at it.
The girl held a piece of paper and a brush dipped in ink in her hand. As she passed Yuan Xiu, she paused briefly on the next step before retracting her brush.
"I'll go back with you after you sign the papers," she said, handing the things in her hand to Yuan Xiu.
Yuan Xiu blinked and took a clear look at the contents of the paper.
The general idea is that you have to pay money when you go to the Prime Minister's residence.
The hands, with their distinct knuckles, accepted it.
In the blink of an eye, Yuan Xiu had already walked up to the Prime Minister.
Prime Minister Hua looked at the words above, his blood boiled again, and he said "good" several times before putting pen to paper.
Yuan Xiu handed the written agreement to Song Jinhuan.
Song Jinhuan was very satisfied and carefully put the purse into her waistband.
He rarely showed a kind look to Yuan Xiu, saying, "Well done."
Yuan Xiu smiled slightly and walked silently to a spot one step behind Song Jinhuan.
The protective stance is quite obvious.
The Prime Minister's carriage departed, and the Lai Fu Inn resumed business.
Song Jinhuan successfully exchanged the written agreement for a thousand taels of silver.
Hua Deyou, with his aloofness, looked down on such behavior and snorted coldly.
