Chapter 55
"You evildoer! How dare you, how dare you bring someone in?"

Ke Yiqing sneered, "What are you talking about, the old lady? You just told your wife that people in my yard must pay back the food they stole. Why doesn't the old lady need to pay back the money she owes others?"

The young lady tilted her head and asked, "Does grandma want to deny it?"

At this time, the old lady's face turned completely dark, "Come here, get these people out quickly!"

The shopkeepers were also very angry: "I wonder who dares?" The thugs behind them also took a few steps forward at the right time, and immediately the old lady was shocked and stepped back a lot.

Ke Yiqing also said coolly: "Now that the whole family is in debt, do you think the old lady still has extra money to pay you?"

At this time, the nursing staff of the Hou Mansion also hesitated. After all, in the entire Hou Mansion, except for Ke Yiqing's courtyard, which she subsidized herself, there were several other courtyards that were in arrears for several months.

After this hesitation, some people gave up their job and even joined the ranks of shopkeepers.

One of them said: "Yes, old lady, our wages have been in arrears for a long time. When will they be paid to us?"

Nowadays, there is a shortage of food everywhere in Shengjing. If Ke Yiqing hadn't stocked up more rice when he was the head of the family, I'm afraid this huge Marquis Mansion would have been unable to open the pot for a long time. But now that the rice and food have all been used by the old lady to pay off the debt, now I can't even eat.

Old madam, old madam, I want to see how it feels when the people you once relied on are now abandoning you.
Ke Yiqing stood aside and watched them getting into trouble.

The old lady pushed the eldest lady and said, "My dear, I remember that you still have a lot of property that has not been touched, right?"

The eldest lady avoided her, lowered her head and said nothing.

"What about the second child's family? Your mother's family is Marquis Xuanping, and a junior also came here a while ago. You can't live without a penny, right?"

"Where do I have the money?" The second wife gritted her teeth, "Didn't you use the subsidy from your mother's family to redeem the second master a long time ago?"

"This, how can this be done!"

The old lady rolled her eyes, sat down on the spot, and said shamelessly: "I just have no money now, let's see who dares to touch me!"

Seeing this scene, even the shopkeepers who had dealt with many difficult problems felt embarrassed. After all, the old lady was an official's wife. If they really wanted to go head-on, they would not have the confidence.

Yu Jin was also amazed and said in a low voice: "I didn't expect that the pampered old lady also has such a side."

Ke Yiqing sneered, "It's just that after too many good days, I learned to pretend."

When the war broke out, this old lady was just a daughter of a farmer. She was married back and made her the head wife because she saved Lord Marquis who was about to starve to death.

I think that when the old lady was among the people, she was also a leader among shrews.

When the group of people who were collecting debts were helpless, she seemed to say unintentionally: "I heard that the court is about to release the second master back. I wonder if such a thing happening at home will affect him?"

Sure enough, this was the old lady's pain point. She immediately got up and changed her expression: "Oh, these adults have all misunderstood. We are one of the eight aristocratic families after all. How can we not even get 900 taels of silver?"

But what disappoints her is that these people have colluded with Ke Yiqing a long time ago, and they don't want to accept her tricks at all. Instead, they press forward step by step.

"Since the old lady is afraid that her son will not be able to come out, she should return the money as soon as possible. Otherwise, we will meet with the government!"

The old lady was dumbfounded, what should I do?

"Ke Yiqing, you troublemaker, why don't you give money to others!"

Are you taking advantage of her again?She hid the hatred in her eyes and said aggrievedly: "Old madam, don't try to hurt me, where is the money?"

The old lady was stunned. When she secretly searched the warehouse before, her warehouse was cleaner than her face.

"But Yiqing's family still has a small amount of money. My mother feels sorry for me. She promised before that if she is abandoned or divorced by her husband's family, the money can be regarded as a support for me."

Does her family still have money?The old lady's eyes lit up, and she didn't care about the loopholes in her words, and said quickly: "It's just Heli, the manager, hurry up and find paper, pen and family seals!"

Ke Yiqing pretended to be injured, "You, you actually want to abandon me because of such a thing?"

The old lady was still counting on her bringing back the money from her parents' family to repay the debt, and it happened immediately. She stepped forward to hold Ke Yiqing's hand, and cried: "Qingqing, as a mother-in-law, I did something wrong in many things before. This time When the Hou Mansion is in trouble, our family helps each other without talking to each other. When this difficulty is over, I will personally take you back!" "Really?" Ke Yiqing touched her tears and looked touched.

"Of course it's true, how can it be false?"

But the old lady was a genius after all. She coaxed her softly for a long time and asked her to transfer the debts to her name first.

Ke Yiqing almost lost his expression. This old guy has really become a spirit!
However, the matter of peace and separation cannot be postponed. If they later find out that he is the owner of Deji Hall, they will probably be plotted against him again!

This 900 taels of silver should be regarded as the divorce fee!

As soon as the person agreed, the old lady half dragged and half dragged her, "With a good wife like you, my youngest son's life is miserable. Now that I am the head of the Hou Mansion, I will make the decision to agree to your reconciliation!" He couldn't help but put her handprint on it.

After the IOU was written, the old lady happily prepared to leave the book.

The eldest lady muttered: "I think the old lady doesn't mean to bring the third aunt back."

"You little girl, shush!" The second lady pulled her, "Shengjing is short of food everywhere now, and there are less people to eat in the house. Isn't it a good thing?"

Miss Dafang saw this clearly and immediately shut up, fearing that Ke Yiqing would regret it if she heard it.

The old lady worked quickly and quickly drafted the divorce letter.

She took it and looked at it carefully, and then felt relieved after confirming that it was correct.

Each party had one copy of the two documents. Once she saw that the matter was settled, the old lady's face was revealed, "Please go back and get the money quickly. You owe the Hou Mansion 900 taels now!"

"Old Madam, you!"

Ke Yiqing squeezed her thigh hard to stop laughing. She covered her face with a handkerchief and pretended to be sad for a while. After being urged by several people, she told Yu Jin and the others to go in and pack their things.

After marrying into the Marquis's house, her life was not good. She didn't add anything to the huge yard, and she quickly cleaned it up.

"In this case, then Qingqing will leave."

The old lady waved her hand impatiently, "Let's go quickly!" As for bringing her back, that was a beautiful idea!She doesn't want such an unlucky person!

Ke Yiqing took this and Li Shu and confirmed that they were correct before going to Li Wei's place to pay 900 taels of silver.

"Madam, these are too many. I only need 500 taels."

She smiled and shook her head, "The shopkeepers have helped me a lot, please accept the money."

"That……"

Seeing the hesitation in their expressions, Ke Yiqing added calmly, "The food I promised you has now been delivered to your homes. If anyone asks about it in the future, please ask the shopkeepers for more." Be patient."

The smart ones among the shopkeepers had slightly changed their expressions, while the more honest ones were just happy to have money and food.

On the way back, someone said: "This young lady is really generous! Our help is not in vain!"

"You idiot, remember to sew your mouth tightly from now on."

"Brother, what does this mean? Brother Xian doesn't understand."

The man shook his head and sighed. On the surface, this young lady was a helpless widow. In fact, in a short period of time, she not only took so much money and food, but she also found out where they lived.

By delivering food to your door, isn't it just a warning to them to keep their mouths shut?

After hearing this explanation, some people said optimistically: "What's so difficult about this? Let's not talk nonsense and get food. This kind of young lady in this world is already considered kind."

Everyone's expressions softened when they heard this, it was true.
