The original owner frequently requested him to go out with her! (???)
Since she was the most beautiful courtesan, her price for going out with clients must have been high. As a result, the original owner owed the Peony Garden a large sum of money for prostitution. It seems that he has come to collect the debt today.
Waaaaah, this outfit is so incredibly frustrating, I'm such a victim of injustice!
“Miss Yun, you spent 14,000 taels of silver at the Peony Garden and haven’t settled the bill yet. I’ve come to inquire about it today.” Ru Yu spoke gently, looking at Yun Qingran with a tender smile.
As expected, they came to collect debts. Two groups of people came to my door to collect debts in one day. If you call it a coincidence, it's too much of a coincidence.
The onlookers, who were about to leave, returned when they saw this scene, continuing to watch the spectacle.
"Young Master Ruyu, may I speak to you in private?" Yun Qingran stepped forward and pulled Ruyu aside by his sleeve.

Ruyu touched his nose. Cuiyu, the owner of Mudan Garden, was from the same hometown as him. The two of them had started Mudan Garden together. Cuiyu provided the money, and he provided the chrysanthemums. He still had some say in Mudan Garden.
"Miss Yun, I owe you money, so please don't make things difficult for me," Ruyu said pitifully, blinking his charming eyes.
"My lord, although I've asked you for wine several times, you've been pushing expensive wines on me and haven't let me touch it yet. You know perfectly well where this debt of 14,000 taels came from." Yun Qianyue chuckled.
The original owner's head was just there to make up the numbers. He spent more than half a year at the Peony Garden, and not only did he not touch a single hair of Ruyu, he was also tricked into spending more than 14,000 taels of silver.
Fourteen thousand taels is three years' worth of salary for Yunxiao and Yun Qingbi.
