"...Last time I heard from your mother, you are still seeking an official position. This is really good! If you really can't get along with Wei... deal with it properly, I won't stop you.

If you have an official position, you can find another respectable family. Come to Beijing in a few months and leave this matter to me. "

Song Shang shook his head gently: "I think long-term about the Song family's affairs. I also manage the Wen family's business very well. Over the years, step by step, I have not made any mistakes. But people can't be perfect... Aunt, I just have these absurd ideas, please fulfill them!"

Old Madam Wen began to suspect: "You and Wen Yu, did you..." have an affair? It 's not like she hasn't experienced this before. Wen Qian did this before, but he didn't tell her before. In the end, she thought there was nothing wrong, and she had to help him clean up the mess!

Don't bother anymore...

"Grandma, you don't know your own granddaughter? I respect Ah Yu so much, how can I put her in an unchaste and unclean situation?"

Mrs. Wen blushed a little, "Ah, what happened recently..."

There are too many! Even Madam Qi has taken a fancy to her and wants her to be the daughter-in-law of her own son! That's Qi Wu. I have lived for decades and have never seen such a good-looking man! Not to mention the family background, wealth and ability.

"Let's not talk about this anymore..." Old Mrs. Wen looked at Song Shang. He holds the lifeline of the Wen family's industry in his hands. This is not a joke!

"Before her father went to the capital, his intention was to marry into the Zhang family. There have been a lot of things going on these days, and there have been some unexpected events, so we haven't had time to discuss it. These few days, I have decided on this matter. Then, she will marry into the Zhang family, and we will go to the capital. That's it..." The old lady decided it with certainty.

"Aunt..." Song Shang said pleadingly.

"I won't hide it from you! You are in charge of the Wen family's assets, which are very important to the Wen family. Don't you think about this: Can I, Wen Yu's grandfather, and her father, be involved in these things without any worries?"

Song Shang said: "Then I am the son-in-law of the Wen family, half-son, right? Isn't that a closer relationship with the Wen family?"

That would only be if Wen Yu was willing and didn't obstruct! The old lady was anxious and refused directly: "No. You don't have to mention this matter again!"

"Auntie, to show my sincerity, I'll give you a betrothal gift of two hundred thousand taels!"

This blow knocked the old lady unconscious...

Two hundred thousand taels of silver?

"You are crazy! You are really crazy..." He said this, but his heart was filled with ecstasy.

There was no sound in the room. She stared at Song Wu blankly, not believing it was true.

"A Shang, this is not a joke!" Guang added, fearing that he had misunderstood. But after saying that, he felt it was inappropriate and added, "Are you asking the Wen family to sell their daughter?"

"Why would you think that? I just want to show my sincerity!"

In fact, he was also very nervous. If Ayu knew about it, she would be very angry.

But if he doesn't take ruthless action, the person will be killed.

"...But you, why is this happening?" Even though Old Madam Wen was a successful and calculating person, she couldn't remain calm at this moment.

During casual conversations, she heard that the world-famous Huang Yingying by the Qinhuai River was redeemed for 50,000 taels of silver, which was a sky-high price! And Song Wu asked for 200,000 taels of silver.

Of course... Although his granddaughter couldn't do that, why did he pay such a price?

I can't help but doubt the authenticity and motive of this matter.

"I know Yu is pretty, but you have seen all kinds of girls out there. I heard that you..." The old lady was panicking and spoke at a loss for words.

"Old lady, they are just... those women. And Ayu is a gentle language."

Song Shang looked unhappy. Although his actions were a bit despicable, the old lady's attitude also made him angry.

"I know, I know..." Old Mrs. Wen's face turned red. In desperation, she compared her granddaughter with "those women".

"Ashan, I, I can't promise you this right now." She said with difficulty. She still had to think about this matter carefully. For her to have come this far, courage was important. Being cautious was equally important.

"I need to think about it carefully and discuss it with her father... You should also think about it carefully when you go back. Two hundred thousand is not a small amount even in the Song family! How can you come up with it?"

My god, how come he has so much money? "...Ashan, it's not easy for you to be where you are today!" She didn't know what to say.

"Although two hundred thousand is not a small amount, I don't care about it for Ah Yu. If you hand her over to me, I will be a half-son of the Wen family. I will definitely get closer to the Wen family in the future."

Of course it would be great if it could be like this! But Wen Yu is a big variable...

Just because of his useless spirit, if Wen Yu married him, would he still listen to everything? If Wen Yu knew, she could have married the beautiful husband in the Marquis's Mansion.

But I was allowed to take the silver and promised to go to a farmer's or merchant's home.

How could she not hate him?! What if she encouraged Song Shang to break up with her... then the loss would outweigh the gain.

But this is two hundred thousand! Then she thought: So what if we are alienated? As long as Wen Qian's official career goes smoothly and there are more places for money, this part is not as unimportant as before. Besides, with the power of the official suppressing them, what dare they do? So, she finally smiled. "You kid... you have messed up my mind. To be honest, in this world, besides Wen Qian, you are the one I love the most! Even Brother Feng can't compare to you. Although I love money, I love your attitude of not talking about different things. Forget it... my children and grandchildren are all debts, I will just accept it!"

Song Shang was overjoyed: "Thank you, Auntie, for your help!"

"Just! Don't tell anyone about this for now. It will bring bad reputation to you and the Wen family."

"I understand!" Song Shang scratched his ears and cheeks happily.

This made Old Lady Wen angry again.

…

Wen Yu returned to the house, feeling uneasy.

The shadow of his past life kept flashing before his eyes. It seemed that he was still "a thief with a ruthless heart".

If I still put forward that condition, my grandmother would definitely agree.

Qi Wu, hurry up!

Just as she was thinking about something, Xiangshu's mother brought her over and knelt down in front of Wenyu.

Xiangshu was injured on the side of his face and ears. His arm was not broken, but it was red and swollen and he couldn't lift it because of the pain.

"Miss, Xiangshu was seriously injured this time and can't serve you for a while. I'm afraid it will delay your work in the room. What do you think... maybe we can find a replacement? Wait until she recovers..."

Xiangshu was in so much pain that her eyes were swollen from crying.

Wen Yu said, "Xiang Shu was the most seriously injured and suffered a lot. Go back and recuperate. She is not young anymore. This is her life contract. I will give it to you. Find a suitable marriage for her when the time comes!"

Xiangshu and her mother were very happy, but they couldn't stay in this room any longer.

"Also, these thirty taels of silver are for her health. There are also two pieces of fine fabric, a pair of gold earrings and a pair of gold hairpins, which are my dowry for her!"

"Oh, girl, what does this mean? She hasn't served you for a few days!"

"I feel really bad about this incident! No need to say more, just take her away!"

Xiangshu's mother was overjoyed. She kowtowed with her daughter and left.

After sending them away, Wen Yu couldn't sit still in the room and walked out.

As soon as I arrived near my grandmother's main courtyard, I ran into Song Shang. He was walking lightly and hurriedly, with a smile on his face that came from the bottom of his heart.

Song Shang also saw Wen Yu. She was standing there, her figure was cold and her eyes were grim. That feeling... He was actually very scared. He opened his mouth but couldn't say a word... After hesitating for a moment, he turned around and fled.
