"Master, is Eighth Brother borrowing money from Ninth Brother?"
"That's right, Fu Jin, let me tell you, Eighth Brother is really shameless. Over the years, he has borrowed no less than 100,000 taels of silver from Ninth Brother. He always says it's a loan, but I've never seen him pay it back."
"What? No less than 100,000 taels? I married into the Qing Dynasty alone from Monan, Mongolia. The dowry my father and mother gave me was only a little over 100,000 taels. How dare you, Eighth Brother, borrow so much from Ninth Brother? You're so brave!"
But I'm really curious, Brother Nine, Brother Eight borrowed so much money, does Sister Nine know about this?"
Yinzhen, who was still thinking about how to discuss this matter with Mu Sili, froze instantly. She didn't know about this before, but now, he couldn't guarantee that she didn't know!
If Mu Sili knew about this, then his mother would soon know too. Thinking of his mother's whip, Yinzhen felt a little pain in his butt.
"Fujin, it's getting late. We should go back. You're due in three months, so you have to be careful."
"I know."
"Nineth brother, my younger brother and his wife are going back first, but I still feel I should tell you something. I think Eighth brother is very shameless. Instead of lending this money to him, it would be better to buy some clothes and jewelry for Yi E Niang and Ninth sister-in-law, which would also make them happy.
If you really give this money to Myna without saying thank you, I'm afraid he will think you're stingy. You're so rich, but you only lend him so little. It's just offensive."
Yinzhen thought about it and it was indeed true, but since Eighth Brother had spoken of it, he still had to tell his wife.
Given Myna's personality, if he can't get it done, he will definitely ask his sister-in-law to go to the Lady to mediate.
Fu Jin looks easy to bully. What if she is bullied by Eighth Sister-in-law?
"I understand. I'll tell your ninth sister-in-law about this later. Tenth brother, your sister-in-law is in poor health, so don't run around. Except when you're on business, you should spend more time with her on weekdays."
"Why has Ninth Brother become so nagging? I know what you are talking about. Don't worry, Fu Jin, let's go back."
"good."
After Yinzhen and his wife left, Yinzhen ran to the main courtyard happily. He had been with his eighth brother and tenth brother the whole morning. He had not come to see the twins yet and missed them terribly.
While looking after the child, he told Mu Sili through the screen that Yinsi wanted to borrow silver.
"It's not impossible for Big Brother to borrow money from us, but I heard that Big Brother borrowed a lot of money from you. But tell me, has Big Brother ever paid it back?"
Yinzhen smiled awkwardly. He used to earn money to help his brothers and to oppose the emperor. He really didn't take the money seriously and naturally didn't think about whether to pay it back.
Now, after hearing what Mu Sili said, why did he feel like he was being taken advantage of? And it seemed like Bage took him for granted, thinking he would definitely lend him money.
"What does the lady think? After all, he and I are brothers who grew up together. He is short of money now, and I have plenty of it. It would be wrong not to lend it to him."
"Your Majesty, what you said makes sense. It is my fault for not thinking things through. I will lend you the money.
But the IOU must be written clearly. Our money didn't come from the wind. I can ignore the previous debts, but this one must be repaid."
"Okay, Master understands. Fu Jin, don't worry."
When Yinzhen sent someone to tell Yinsi about this, Yinsi was not grateful at all. Instead, he felt that Yinzhen did not take him seriously.
"Fujin, did you hear that? Ninth brother actually asked me to issue an IOU. Are you afraid I won't pay you back?"
"Master, calm down. I'm afraid this was instigated by my ninth brother's wife. We have such a close relationship, why would he suddenly bring up such a thing?
Tomorrow I will go to the Ninth Prince's residence and have a good talk with my Ninth Brother's wife. How can brothers write IOUs? It's just making a fool of themselves."
"Thank you, Madam."
When the Eighth Lady came to Mu Sili and told her about this, Mu Sili was unhappy.
"So what Eighth Sister-in-law meant was that our master's money was earned by Eighth Brother, but on what basis? Eighth Brother has contributed manpower and labor, so why would he expect to get something for nothing?
If Eighth Sister-in-law was not the Eighth Concubine bestowed by the Emperor himself, my sister-in-law would really like to ask her, are you a dog-skin plaster that can't be thrown away?
If you look down on your sister-in-law, why bother asking her for mercy? Is it because she looks easy to bully?
The Eighth Lady left with a gloomy face. Yinzhen was very surprised that this person left after just a short while.
After hearing what Mu Sili said about the Eighth Lady's intentions, she also started to dislike Yinsi.
"As Fu Jin said, my money didn't come from the wind. I've already done my best by not charging them interest. How dare they actually want to take it for free?"
"Let's not talk about him anymore. If they really want to borrow money, they should follow the procedures. I can't give it to them for free. If I really want to give it to them for free, I might as well use it to do charity. At least I can get their thanks."
When the Eighth Concubine returned, Yinsi was extremely unhappy. He thought that it was all Mu Sili's fault, otherwise Yin'er would have lent him the money long ago. Why would he go through so many detours?
It's just an IOU, so he just wrote it. He didn't believe that Yinzhen would have the nerve to ask his brother for the money he owed him.
"I'm sorry, Madam. Be patient for a while and things will be fine. Take a step back and the sky will be clear. Wait until I succeed. Then they will regret it."
"I understand."
Yin'er didn't expect that Yinsi would come to borrow money, but he had signed the IOU, and it would seem unkind of him not to lend it. Fortunately, Mu Sili sent Yanzhi over, otherwise Yin'er wouldn't know how to refuse.
"Since Fu Jin said it's okay, Jiang Baifu, go get ten thousand taels of silver for Bage."
"yes."
"I, Eighth Brother, thank you, Ninth Brother. Don't worry, I will return the money as soon as possible."
"That's good. Brother B, don't blame me for being nosy. You're spending money too quickly. You should find a way to make money. Otherwise, it won't be long before you're..."
Yinsi just smiled and left. He was born to be a superior, so how could he do business as a businessman?
As for money, he always finds a way.
Soon it was time for the twins' full-month banquet. Concubine Yi and Emperor Kangxi came together. She prepared generous full-month gifts for the two sisters, but the ones for her grandson were obviously leftovers.
Yinzhen was also helpless about her different treatment, but he didn't dare to say it. Didn't he see that the emperor also looked helpless?
The Tenth Lady was very jealous of the things used by the little princesses. She wondered if Yi E'niang would treat her little princess like this if she gave birth to one.
Not to mention 100%, even 30% would be enough. It's because she doesn't have a mother-in-law, so she's worried.
The names of the twins, boy and girl, have also been announced. The eldest prince is called Hongyan, the eldest princess is called Ni Chu'e, and the second princess is called Ailanzhu.
