Chapter 515 New and Old Grudges
Although Yu Yongbai earned several thousand taels thanks to Zhou Yunyi last time, Yu Yongbai still looked down upon Zhou Yunyi.
Yu Yongbai curled his lips and said, "Yes, it's me. Why?"
Zhou Yunyi doesn't have a good face either!
It was not something else. Zhou Yunyi had bought three pieces of warm jade in Zhenbao Pavilion before, big, medium and small. He gave the smallest piece to his mother, Lady Weibei Marquis, and tricked her into saying that it was a warm jade bought specially for her, and he cheated her out of four thousand taels.
As a result, before Zhou Yunyi had even warmed up the four thousand taels of silver in his hands, Wang Jiajia came crying and asked him for help, and took away all the six thousand taels of silver that Zhou Yunyi was going to use to return Gong Qingniang.
Later, Zhou Yunyi was unable to pay back Gong Qingniang, and it dragged on for a few days. As a result, Zhou Yunyi, the debtor, brought Wang Jiajia to Gong Qingniang and made a scene, which was very annoying. Naturally, Gong Qingniang demanded the debt back in front of everyone.
Zhou Yunyi was greatly humiliated, and rode back home on horseback. He acted coquettishly and foolishly to his mother, and only then did he manage to get six thousand taels.
This is not enough. The agreed interest rate is one hundred taels a day!
Zhou Yunyi thought that he and Wang Jiajia were in love and would get married sooner or later. Jiajia was not a greedy woman like Gong Qingniang. So he might as well let Jiajia help him with the remaining few hundred taels.
As a result, when Zhou Yunyi opened his mouth, Wang Jiajia's expression changed drastically, and she started crying to him about her poverty, saying that her parents were partial to her and her brother was a fool. All the money she had was taken away, and she couldn't even give out the bonus to the maids.
After saying that, she covered her face with a handkerchief and cried.
But Zhou Yunyi was heartbroken.
When the young master of Weibei Marquis's Mansion heard that his beloved girl was living such a miserable life, he could no longer sit still. He immediately gritted his teeth and pawned the fine jade pendant that his grandmother had given him on his birthday two years ago, in exchange for three thousand taels.
The principal of six thousand taels plus the interest of nearly one thousand taels were returned to Gong Qingniang, and Zhou Yunyi gave the remaining two thousand taels to Wang Jiajia.
Wang Jiajia was immediately moved, and Zhou Yunyi had drunk some wine at the time, so the two of them couldn't control themselves and slept together again - yes, this was not the first time Zhou Yunyi had slept with Wang Jiajia.
However, since that time, Wang Jiajia's menstruation has not come for more than two months, which scared her.
Zhou Yunyi took Wang Jiajia to the clinic secretly for a check-up, and found out that she was pregnant!
Wang Jiajia burst into tears and said that her parents would beat her to death if they knew about it.
Zhou Yunyi said excitedly that he would convince his parents and grandmother to go to the Wang family to propose marriage.
As a result, when Zhou Yunyi went back and tentatively mentioned it to his mother, Lady Weibei Hou, his mother's eyes turned red and she angrily threw the warm jade she wore every day at Zhou Yunyi!
Zhou Yunyi then realized that his mother, Lady Weibei Marquis, had attended a banquet yesterday. The host of the banquet saw Lady Weibei Marquis's warm jade and asked about it. Lady Weibei Marquis then complained to others, "... This child, she doesn't know how expensive firewood, rice, oil and salt are. She spent four thousand taels to buy such a piece of warm jade and insisted on giving it to me..."
The lady could hear that the wife of Marquis Weibei was trying to show off her son's filial piety, so she followed the wife's intention and praised young Master Zhou for his filial piety. What was the result?
As a result, when the host accompanied the wife of Weibei Marquis to stroll in the garden, they happened to see Wang Jiajia touching a piece of warm jade on her waist that was much larger than the one on the wife of Weibei Marquis, and boasting that Zhou Yunyi bought it for her. What else did she say? She bought three pieces in total, and Zhou Yunyi gave her the two larger ones.
The little sister asked, "What about the smallest one?"
Wang Jiajia chuckled and said, "Yilang is very filial. He took it back to give to his mother."
The wife of Weibei Marquis turned pale at that time! She felt as if her old face was stepped on and crushed by Wang Jiajia's words!
The warm jade hanging on the waist is like a piece of branding iron!
It's so smelly!
The lady of the host family was even more embarrassed than the wife of Marquis Weibei, and she didn't know what to say to smooth things over.
Later, the wife of Marquis Weibei didn't know how she returned home.
He fell ill after returning home.
The disease hasn't recovered yet? Zhou Yunyi came here and asked to marry Wang Jiajia?
The wife of Weibei Marquis threw the piece of warm jade at Zhou Yunyi, her voice trembling with anger: "...Unless I die!"
This is too serious.
Seeing that his mother was not in good health, Zhou Yunyi did not dare to confront her and left with the warm jade in shame.
This was nothing. Just when Zhou Yunyi was planning a long-term plan, something happened to Wang Jiajia. She came to Zhou Yunyi crying, saying that her parents knew she was pregnant and wanted to beat her to death.
Zhou Yunyi felt heartbroken!
But thinking about his mother's attitude just now, this is definitely not a good time to say anything.
Zhou Yunyi could only comfort Wang Jiajia.
Wang Jiajia said with red eyes: "Yilang, I believe you, but my parents want to drown me! They also said they will sue you for raping a good girl!"
Zhou Yunyi was shocked, and after talking with Wang Jiajia's parents, he not only promised to marry Wang Jiajia, but also had to give Wang Jiajia 5,000 taels of silver to "recover her health."
"After all, my daughter is pregnant with the heir of your Weibei Marquisate. You must be responsible for him!"
Zhou Yunyi gritted his teeth, found some good things from his private storehouse, pawned them all, and then gave the 5,000 taels of "nutrition fee" to the Wang family.
But within two days, Wang Jiajia became "worried and frightened" again, saying that she had her period and had to use thousand-year-old ginseng to save the fetus. However, the huge expenses on supplements completely drained Zhou Yunyi's bank.
But we can’t just ignore Wang Jiajia!
Zhou Yunyi was at a loss. He thought that Gong Qingniang was a businesswoman, and the blood ginseng that his mother had eaten before was provided by Gong Qingniang. He thought that Gong Qingniang must have a way.
Only then did Zhou Yunyi "endure the humiliation and bear the heavy burden" and run to find Gong Qingniang.
But Zhou Yunyi felt that, after all, this matter was caused by the warm jade. When he saw Yu Yongbai, he thought of the warm jade, so naturally he didn't look happy.
The other thing is that Zhou Yunyi himself didn't know why, but every time he saw Yu Yongbai and Gong Qingniang standing together, he would get inexplicably angry and feel very annoyed!
Now Yu Yongbai appeared in Gong Qingniang's shop again. Zhou Yunyi glared at him coldly, with new and old grudges, and he became more and more angry the more he looked at him.
Zhou Yunyi suddenly jumped up and waved his hand to his followers: "Beat him up! Beat him to death!"
Although Yu Yongbai looked like a leisurely person, in fact, considering his wealth, he would naturally bring some guards with him when he went out.
It’s just that Yu Yongbai never liked to show off, so most of his guards hid in the dark.
Zhou Yunyi started the fight first, so Yu Yongbai was even less polite. He smiled grimly and said, "You want to fight? I'll stick with you till the end!"
