What a short-sighted, vicious and stupid bitch!
Mrs. Cui cursed in her heart. Her tolerance towards Li had reached its peak.
The Li family was jealous and stirring up trouble in the backyard, but Mrs. Cui just watched it for fun.
But now, Li actually dared to "cheat" outside, bringing trouble to the county magistrate, and Mrs. Cui could not tolerate it.
Gu Qingcheng seemed not to feel the low pressure emanating from Mrs. Cui. She stretched out four white and tender fingers and said, "Four percent profit! Sister Cui, this business will definitely make a lot of money!"
Four percent interest?
Mrs. Cui's vagina suddenly contracted.
How dare you, bitch!
Originally, when Mrs. Cui heard that Li was going to lend money at high interest, she was just annoyed, but not furious!
Because in all dynasties, the imperial court allowed private lending.
Even the major government offices would provide certain loans if there was a shortage of silver and money.
You can lend money, but you cannot charge excessively high interest rates.
There is a regulation in this dynasty that the interest rate for loans shall not exceed three percent.
No more than that. Even if trouble arises when collecting debts, it can be resolved into a small matter, after all, it is not illegal.
If it exceeds three points, it is illegal. If a few more lives are lost, it is simply courting death!
If the family was really short of money, and if Aunt Li did such a thing for the sake of the whole family and at the cost of her reputation, Mrs. Cui could still be more tolerant.
It’s just not!
The family had enough food and clothing, and because Li had given birth to two children, Mrs. Cui even increased Li's salary.
Her share was the highest among the concubines!
Even with this, this bitch is still not satisfied!
She actually dared to lend money at a 4% interest rate?
Mrs. Cui knew without even thinking that if she left it alone, Aunt Li would bring disaster to the family.
Gu Qingcheng still felt that Mrs. Cui was not angry enough, so she lowered her voice and said, "Actually, I cooperate with my concubine not just to make money!"
Speaking of this, Gu Qingcheng smiled shyly, and that smile was so beautiful that it attracted people's attention.
After reading it, Mrs. Cui felt that her anger level seemed to have decreased.
However, Gu Qingcheng's next words made Mrs. Cui's temporarily relieved mood suddenly explode with anger.
Gu Qingcheng continued, "I still want to find out the County Master's preferences through the concubine!"
"You don't know, but my Dalang is the smartest. He has a photographic memory and can recite everything he hears. While other children are still struggling to memorize an article, my Dalang can already recite it backwards!"
"The private school teacher said that although he is young, he has enough knowledge. He could have finished his studies next year, but now he is in mourning and can only wait three years. But my Dalang will only be twelve years old in three years!"
"I'm a woman, and I don't know anything about the imperial examination. It was a relative of mine who told me that in this academy examination, the county magistrate can tell the candidate's name, place of origin, and other information just by looking at the paper."
"If I can establish a relationship with the county lord's family in advance, it will be more convenient for my son to take the college entrance examination in the future!"
"We don't ask for special treatment from the county magistrate, just don't show partiality to others!"
At the end of the speech, there was a hint of pride on Gu Qingcheng's innocent face.
It seems to be saying: My Dalang is good enough, I ask someone to help me just to give him a fair chance to compete!
Mrs. Cui stood up suddenly.
If Mrs. Cui had just heard that Li dared to lend money with interest exceeding the court's regulations, she would have been angry.
At this moment, Mrs. Cui was already furious!
Imperial examination!
That lowly maidservant of the Li family actually dared to interfere in such an important matter!
For an official, cheating in an exam is much more serious than lending money at high interest rates.
The former is a matter of principle, while the latter is just a matter of personal morality.
If the former committed a crime, he would be dismissed from office or even his entire family would be exiled.
As for the latter, most of them just pay money to settle the matter.
Although the county magistrate is like a local emperor in the local area.
But the local emperor is not a real emperor after all.
If the matter gets out, the magistrate will definitely be held accountable, and Mrs. Cui, his wife, will also be implicated!
"Damn it! Damn it! This Li is a disaster. We can't keep her here any longer."
Mrs. Cui clenched her handkerchief tightly, a look of determination flashing in her eyes.
Originally, she wanted to advise Gu Qingcheng: The imperial examination is not a joke, and you must not act recklessly. If you don't do it right, it will bring trouble to your own son!
But when her eyes met Gu Qingcheng's silly little face, she swallowed back the words that were about to come out of her mouth.
This Gu family is too stupid and too easy to be influenced by.
Even if she could persuade Mrs. Gu today, tomorrow that relative of hers would come and tell her some nonsense, and Mrs. Gu would believe that person again!
This matter has to be solved from the root.
"Sister Gu, thank you for your help. My youngest son is eleven years old this year and will be leaving the family next year. I will go back and discuss it with my husband and then make a decision."
Mrs. Cui said to Gu Qingcheng with a smile.
This Gu family member is not only beautiful, but also helps their family to some extent.
It can be considered a blessing in disguise.
Just considering this "merit", Mrs. Cui will not treat her unfairly.
Not to mention, this guy is really good-looking!
Woohoo, Mrs. Cui is a veteran beauty lover and is absolutely irresistible to beauty.
Li must return double the money she cheated Gu out of.
Huoshui:...Uh, if I remember correctly, Gu Qingcheng only received the IOU and didn’t give any money at all!
She, she had it all planned out long ago. Not only did she not get cheated, she even made a lot of money easily?!
