I Made a Fortune By Raiding Houses In Ancient Times

Chapter 242 Is it your fault?

Guo was shocked.

As soon as he stood up, several stewards, maids and servants rushed in outside the flower hall.

“Madam, I don’t know what happened to the koi carps in the pond, but all of them suddenly jumped out.”

“Madam, I don’t know who smashed the porcelain in the warehouse.”

“Madam, all the food in the big kitchen has been knocked to the ground.”

“Madam, the lady was scalded by the tea. I want you to hire a doctor for her.”

 …

Guo's eyes darkened and her body swayed.

If the maid beside him hadn't helped him in time, he would have passed out long ago.

Ms. Guo slowed down and looked at Ling Chu suspiciously. Somehow, she suddenly thought of what she said just now, saying that she was afraid that your Duke Zhao's mansion wouldn't be able to bear it.

 Before she came, everything was fine in their Zhao Guogong Mansion.

It happened that so many changes happened after she came.

I originally heard that this **** was sent to a Taoist temple for foster care because he punished his relatives. Is this true?

The maid next to the Madam saw that Mrs. Guo was stunned and couldn't help but urged, "Madam, the Madam is still waiting for the doctor..."

Mrs. Guo came back to her senses and no longer thought about Ling Chu's affairs. She hurriedly sent for the imperial doctor to deal with the unexpected accidents.

I don’t know if it was because he was afraid that Ling Chu would defeat Zhao Jingming, but Guo also called him away.

Everyone has left, and apart from Ling Chu, there is only one little maid in the flower hall.

Ling Chu was not annoyed, she found a seat and sat down, and asked the little maid to serve her tea. After taking a few sips, she put the shovel and hammer back into the system.

As soon as she entered Duke Zhao's mansion, she put invisibility charms on the shovel and hammer and let them play around.

 Those accidents just now were their masterpieces.

 Originally, she did not let them go to the ancestral hall, after all, the dead were the most important.

It's just that Dazun made his own decision. When he saw the woman who took care of the ancestral hall talking nonsense to the little maid while belittling Ling Chu, he decided to scare her.

The woman was preparing lamp oil when a shovel suddenly appeared and hit her in the face. In panic, she accidentally knocked over the lamp oil.

The little maid who was with her was also frightened. In a hurry, she knocked over a nearby candle and happened to light the spilled lamp oil, which caused the fire.

After scaring the mother-in-law and maids in the ancestral hall, the shovel swung around in a circle and shoveled all the koi carps in the pond onto the shore.

 The porcelain in the warehouse and the food in the big kitchen are smashed with small hammers.

As for the Tai Madam, the maidservant who served her knew that she was angry with Ling Chu because Ling Chu had exposed the affair of Duke Zhao's crown prince.

Today I heard that she smashed the sedan chair again, and the maids were scolding her in order to please the wife.

In a fit of rage, the little hammer smashed the leg of the maid who scolded the most.

The maid was preparing to serve tea to the Madam when she was caught off guard and was hit, and the tea cup in her hand flew straight towards her.

The tea was accidentally thrown into the dowager's arm.

 After Mr. Guo finished dealing with the accidents, he returned to the flower hall. Seeing Ling Chu still sitting there leisurely drinking tea, the anger in his heart kept rising.

"Come here, send Aunt Ling to the yard where her son died." Although she suspected that those accidents were caused by this bitch, Guo felt that she was just a lowly commoner, so she didn't believe that they could not be suppressed by the first-class Duke's mansion. she. Mrs. Guo is not in a hurry to learn from Lingchu now. Anyway, once she enters the door of her house, there will be many opportunities in the future, and she has countless means to keep her in submission.

Lingchu originally thought that Mrs. Guo would be somewhat jealous of her fate, but she didn't expect that she was mistaken.

Seeing that those maids and women were about to attack, Ling Chu took out a small hammer and knocked them over without saying a word.

“Mrs. Duke, I am not here today to be a concubine for your family, but to collect the high usury money from my girl.”

Mr. Guo's face was cold, "What usurious money? I don't know what you are talking about!"

Lingchu took out the usury loan note from Zhou Banqin's family.

"Private usury is illegal. Under the emperor's feet, within the imperial city, the majestic Zhao Guogong's wife dares to knowingly commit the crime. If this matter spreads, I wonder how the emperor will punish you, Zhao Guogong's Mansion?"

Ms. Guo glanced at the IOU with a look of contempt, "The handwriting on this IOU was not written by me, and there is no my name on it. Do you think you can threaten me by just fabricating it?"

Ling Chu smiled playfully, "Didn't the Duke's wife secretly lend loan money? But I heard that there are rumors in the public that your Zhao Guofu showed great kindness today. In order to help those in need, all the loan money lent was No more.

Moreover, the principal and interest already collected will be returned. Could it be that I misheard this? "

Mrs. Guo sneered, maybe this **** is mentally ill, that's more than 100,000 taels, she must be crazy to give up.

At this moment, there was a sound of gongs and drums outside the gate of Zhao Guofu.

The sound of the gongs and drums was so loud that Mrs. Guo frowned.

Ling Chu smiled happily.

 Not long after, the sound of gongs and drums stopped. But the boy guarding the door suddenly rushed in, sweating profusely, "Madam, it's not good. There are many people outside. They... they said they came to thank Madam for her bodhisattva heart."

Ms. Guo stared at the boy in confusion.

The boy was so anxious that he said, "Madam, those people said that in order to help them, you have given up all the usury money you lent, and all the money you received previously will be returned."

As soon as Guo's face changed, he subconsciously cursed, "It's just a bunch of untouchables who dare to have such delusions. I will take back all the money."

What are you still doing? Hurry up and take people to drive them away. "

The boy looked mournful and said, "Madam, I can't help it. In order to thank you and the Duke, they are kneeling in front of the door and kowtow. And on the way here, they kept beating gongs and drums. There was too much noise, except for those who borrowed the seal. Money, there are many onlookers watching."

 Guo was furious and turned to glare at Ling Chu fiercely, "Is it your fault?"

Ling Chu smiled and said, "Why, didn't Madam just say that the Duke's government did not issue usury money privately? So you were fooling me? Instead of questioning me here, Madam, it would be better to think about how to deal with the aftermath.

It is illegal to issue loan sharks privately..."

Mr. Guo wanted to strangle Ling Chu to death.

The wife of the Duke of Zhao heard about what was going on outside and hurriedly asked the attendant nun to come and asked Mrs. Guo to handle it properly.

The matter was too big, and Guo naturally couldn't ignore it.

Outside the gate, there was a dense crowd of people, some who had borrowed usury, and some who had heard the news to watch the fun.

Seeing Mrs. Guo coming in, everyone immediately gathered around and thanked the Duke and Madam for their kindness.

Hearing those compliments, Guo felt a fire in her heart. But in front of so many people, I couldn't get angry and had to force myself to laugh.
