Chapter 16 His Majesty Wants to Leave the Palace
Yin Xu?
Yin Xu's face turned dark.
The reason why he didn't go out but came to Ye Qiongying to borrow money was, firstly, he didn't want the news of him borrowing money to spread outside, and secondly, he didn't want to pay interest, right?
When Ye Qiongying was in charge of the accounts, he never had such trouble withdrawing money from the accounting office!
"Look at the Marquis, do you not want to borrow it? That's fine," Ye Qiongying picked up the abacus, "Wenping, give me all the things..."
"Wait, I'll borrow it." Yin Xu gritted his teeth and pressed his palm on the paper to prevent Wen Ping from taking it away.
"What? Not lending it?" Ye Qiongying seemed not to hear clearly.
Yin Xu said loudly:
"I want to borrow money! I want to borrow five thousand taels for a year! Is that ok? How much is the interest? I'll write the IOU right away!"
"Okay! That's great!" Ye Qiongying moved the beads on the abacus and quickly calculated. "Normally, I should charge you three hundred taels of interest a year, but I won't charge you that much. I'll charge you two hundred and fifty taels. The remaining fifty taels will be considered a good deed for me."
In the previous life, I often heard Leng Qianqian secretly calling someone an idiot. Apparently, this number didn't have any good meaning in their world.
Fifty taels is a lot of money for ordinary people, but it is nothing to her. She has another purpose in lending them the money. She wants to use the fifty taels to mock these two people. Although the money is a little less, she feels happy!
"No need!" Yin Xu gritted his teeth and said, "Not everyone is as money-minded as you. Five thousand three hundred taels, I will return every penny to you when the time comes! My Loyal and Brave Marquis Mansion still has some credibility!"
Pooh!
How can a treacherous person have the nerve to talk about credibility?
Ye Qiongying did not refute openly, but said:
"Really? Are you sure you don't want this offer? Tsk, the Marquis' Mansion now... only has 88 taels left. Fifty taels can account for most of it. Okay, if you..."
Before Ye Qiongying finished speaking, Yin Xu had already started writing the IOU.
The interest payment clearly stated two hundred and fifty taels of silver.
Look, he had a righteous look on his face just now, as if he was full of character, but now... there is no character to be seen, but he has lost all his shame.
"Take it!" Yin Xu pushed the written IOU forward.
Ye Qiongying was not angry. She took it and looked at it carefully. After confirming that there was no problem, she told Wenping to put it away and asked her to bring the banknote over.
"Here, Lord, here are the five thousand taels. I believe that with Miss Leng's intelligence, she will definitely not let me not even get back the principal in a year, right?"
Having already received the money, Yin Xu was too lazy to pretend. He stuffed the banknotes into his pocket and was about to leave. Before leaving, he threatened Ye Qiongying not to tell Leng Qianqian about this.
After Yin Xu left, the main courtyard was locked.
After Wen Ping packed her things, she asked Ye Qiongying:
"Master, we are all leaving, why are you still lending them such a large sum of money? The Loyal and Brave Marquis's Mansion is so poor, what will they do if they can't pay back the money and refuse to pay?"
Ye Qiongying touched the golden abacus beads and said with a smile:
"Is this the money I borrowed? No, this is to pave the way for us to leave the house.
If I don't lend them money, how can Leng Qianqian open a shop? When she thinks she can make money and manage the household, she will be eager to drive me, the mistress, away and take over herself.
It's just five thousand taels, which is not a big deal for me, but leaving the Mansion of the Marquis of Loyalty and Bravery is the result we urgently want now.
Wenping, if you can get something done with money and you can afford it, don't hesitate, okay?"
After hearing this, Wen Ping nodded thoughtfully:
"I understand, Master. That's right, our Ye family doesn't need that five thousand taels at all. If it can help Master return home earlier, then this money is well spent!"
"Hahahaha, yes, that's the truth. Of course," Ye Qiongying blinked, "these five thousand taels will not be wasted."
She shook the IOU that was drying in her hand:
"Here is the IOU written by the loyal and brave marquis himself. If he doesn't pay back the money on time, we will take the IOU and give him a slap in the face. Then... do you think that Yin Xu, who cares about his reputation, will not pay back the money? Even if he borrows money again, he has to pay me back.
Wenping, I will never do any loss-making business with Yin Xu again.
I want to leave this mansion.
As for the money, I have to get it back.
Why don't you want your own things? "
When Wenping heard this, she immediately smiled happily.
Although I felt it was not bad just now, after all, it would be unlucky to stay in the Mansion of the Marquis of Loyalty and Bravery for one more day. Using money to buy happiness is nothing to the Ye family.
But it’s better this way now!
Now that you have freedom, you also need to get your money back.
Those two dogs should be made to suffer for bullying their master!
"A-choo!" Yin Xu, who was walking on the road with a huge amount of silver bills in his arms, and Leng Qianqian, who was looking at the main gate in the yard with the handkerchief in her hand about to be torn by her fingers, could not help but sneeze.
After a while, Yin Xu finally came back.
As soon as he entered the yard, he saw Leng Qianqian leaning against the door, staring at this side infatuatedly. When she saw him, she was happy at first and took two steps forward, but quickly put away the joy on her face, stopped where she was, and tears flowed from her eyes.
Leng Qianqian gave him a resentful look, then turned around and went into the room, closing the door.
Yin Xu ran over and blocked the door, saying anxiously:
"Qianqian, what's wrong? Who bullied you again? Why are you crying?"
Leng Qianqian burst into tears:
"Who else could it be? It's you, my enemy! I should have known earlier that you two are the couple. I'm just an orphan with nothing. How can I compare with the daughter of the Ye family? It's all my fault. I actually coveted the high and mighty Marquis and thought you would fall in love with me.
Lord, you don't have to sneak to the main courtyard to see Sister Ye anymore. I'll leave! I will never get between you and your wife again!"
When Yin Xu heard this, he finally understood why she was crying. An indulgent smile quickly appeared on his face. He pulled her into his arms and gave her a deep kiss until Leng Qianqian was out of breath and pushed him away with a blushing face:
"You are thinking about Sister Ye, why do you have to kiss me like this? Lord, I, Leng Qianqian, am also a person of dignity and character, and I disdain to be the third party between you and your husband and wife!"
If Ye Qiongying were here, she would be so nauseated that she would vomit after hearing this.
Character?
Were the bones of these two people made from the same cesspool?
It doesn't matter whether there is wind or not, it's pretty crazy.
If I want to be a mistress, I will be a mistress. I don’t even bother to be the third party.
No one would believe that this brain is not sick.
However, the person here was Yin Xu, who was quite fond of this and immediately hugged him again:
"Qianqian, why do you have to belittle yourself like this! You know very well that I only love you. In my heart, you are better than any daughter of the Ye family, Wang family, or Liu family! You are the snow lotus of the mountains, and they are just mud at the foot of the mountain! I went there today just to make it clear to her that the housekeeper power will be yours from now on, so that she should not think about taking it back! I have no other intentions."
"Really?" Leng Qianqian raised her head and asked. When she got a positive answer, she immediately blushed and punched Yin Xu's chest with her little fist. "Why didn't you tell me earlier? You hurt me, you hurt me..."
"Hahaha, I actually like your jealous look!" Yin Xu picked her up and went into the house. After a while, an ambiguous voice came from inside.
At the same time, in the palace, the young emperor had not yet fallen asleep. He sat in front of the dragon bed and looked carefully at the purse. It was obviously Leng Qianqian's thing, but he inexplicably thought of another face. He immediately stood up barefoot in annoyance and shouted:
"Liang Dehai! I want to leave the palace!"
