Chapter 119: See through but don’t say anything!
"I don't know. I want you to open the letter yourself!"
"I personally opened it?"
Her first reaction was that it was sent by Mu Shenyin. The man was so mysterious, so she must have something to ask him again.
Just as she put down the medicine spoon and prepared to open the letter, a respectful voice came from not far away, "Miss Third, why are you in the kitchen?"
"Madam, Sima Guling is here!"
Li Qingwan immediately hid the letter in her sleeve, and Sima Guling quickly walked over, "Sister-in-law, is the medicine ready? I'm here to bring it."
"Ling'er, you came just in time. I said I would personally deliver it to your aunt."
"Then don't bother sister-in-law. Ling'er is fine for now anyway. Please give me the medicine."
"Be careful! It's hot!"
Sima Guling didn't expect that Li Qingwan would give her face every time she made the medicine. She was also happy about it. When the time came, she would say in front of her aunt that she made it herself.
To please the aunt, and also to make the aunt more and more dissatisfied with Li Qingwan, so that they can unite to deal with Li Qingwan!
"Then I'll go first?"
"Go ahead, I'll be there in a minute."
After Sima Guling left, the smile on Li Qingwan's lips gradually faded, and Zi'er finally understood why the lady did this.
"Madam, you want Sima Guling to be..."
"I know everything but I don't say anything. Doesn't she like to be in the limelight? Then let her show off in front of the old woman to her heart's content. If the old woman gets sick in the future, it won't be my fault."
"Madam, this trick of using a knife to kill someone is really powerful. Ah Qing admires you."
Ah Qing and Zi'er then understood why the Madam asked Sima Guling to bring the medicine. It turned out that the Madam was sure that Sima Guling would take the credit of boiling the medicine on her.
When problems arose later, it was indeed Sima Guling's fault and had nothing to do with my wife!
"Okay, let's go see if Xiu He is dead or not?"
She asked Ah Qing to go and see if Xiuhe was dead, and she took out the letter and opened it gently. When she saw a sentence written on it, her heart beat faster.
This Mu Shenyin!
"Madam, was it written by Master Mu?"
Li Qingwan coughed and said, "You have to go out with me tonight. The matter of that piece of land must be resolved immediately!"
"Land? Madam, how do we solve the problem of that piece of land?"
Aren't you waiting to sell it at a high price?
"Qingwan, Qingwan!"
Not far away, Su Xiaoyue's voice came to call her, and when Li Qingwan saw Su Xiaoyue coming, she immediately hid the letter and asked, "What's the matter, cousin?"
"Qingwan, you are here."
Su Xiaoyue smiled wryly, "Qingwan, I came to discuss something with you, you see..."
"We are all family, why should we be so polite? Just tell me what you want to say, aunt."
Su Xiaoyue is still a little afraid of Li Qingwan. After all, she beat Xiuhe to death in front of her. Even if you beat a dog, you have to look at the owner first. She doesn't take her mother-in-law seriously at all. She originally wanted to help teach Li Qingwan a lesson, but now...
She has something to ask for.
So the attitude has improved a lot.
"Qingwan, your cousin was nice to you in the past, right?"
Li Qingwan: “…”
She didn't know what Su Xiaoyue wanted to express, but judging from her attitude, she must have something to ask of her.
"Of course, we are a family, just tell me what you want to say."
"Then I won't be polite, Qingwan. It's like this. My son is getting married soon, but the bride price is still a little short. How much can your family offer?"
what?
This made Zi'er speechless, "Madam Ji, why did you ask the Sima family to pay for your son's marriage?"
"How can you talk like that, little girl? We are a family. When the Sima family encountered problems, they almost fell apart. It was our Ji family that helped. Now we just want to..."
"Ji family help?"
Li Qingwan thought it was ridiculous, "Are you talking about staying indoors?"
"This……"
"Aunt, your calculations hit me in the face. I remember that it was my dowry that supported the Sima family and helped them survive the crisis. How come it is now your Ji family's credit?"
"This……"
Su Xiaoyue didn't expect Li Qingwan to disagree. That's not right. Didn't she always agree to whatever he asked in the past?
"Qingwan, you can't say that. We are relatives after all. You have to help me with this. Besides, your husband has already agreed."
"Did Sima Yue agree?"
Su Xiaoyue smiled, "Isn't it? Ah Yue has agreed, so I came to see you. Ah Yue said that I still need to tell you, so here I am, isn't it?"
Su Xiaoyue's son wanted to get married and needed money, so he asked the Sima family for sponsorship. And Sima Yue, that scumbag husband, actually agreed. Li Qingwan found it ridiculous.
However, she did not have a seizure on the spot.
"Since Ah Yue has agreed, wouldn't it be disrespectful to my cousin if I don't agree?"
"Is this settled, then?"
"I wonder how much money my cousin wants to borrow?"
"borrow?"
Su Xiaoyue was not satisfied when she heard this. She frowned and said, "Qingwan, I don't like the word 'borrow'. It means 'take'. We are relatives. You should contribute something to my son's marriage."
Listen to what kind of bullshit this is, but Li Qingwan is not angry, "How much do you want?"
"It's not much, one hundred taels of silver, what do you think?"
One hundred taels...
Are you really asking for too much?
Li Qingwan was not impatient, "I understand, I will handle this matter!"
"Qingwan, you are such a good daughter-in-law. Thank you, auntie."
Su Xiaoyue was very happy when she said this. She knew that Li Qingwan listened to Sima Yue and she still loved Sima Yue in her heart. Otherwise, how could she agree as soon as Sima Yue was mentioned?
It seems that this daughter-in-law is so stupid that she has no idea that Sima Yue had brought a woman back a long time ago, and that her beloved son was also born to that woman.
The whole family is plotting against Li Qingwan, but she still helps the Sima family. How pitiful and sad!
"Why should we thank each other as a family?"
"Then when can this silver be ..."
"I'll prepare it for you when you get back, but you should stay a few days longer, it's a rare visit."
"That's great, Qingwan. I always say you're a good wife."
Su Xiaoyue left with a smile on her face. After she left contentedly, Zi'er snorted, "Madam, why does she want us to pay for her daughter-in-law?"
"Yes, Sima Yue also agreed. He didn't know the situation of the Sima family. Why did he look for the lady if he wanted to give money?"
"Madam, I don't understand. Madam Ji has bullied you a lot in the past. Why did you agree to her this time?"
Li Qingwan's eyes were full of calculations. She smiled evilly and said, "Just wait and see the show."
"A good show?"
Zi'er and Ah Qing looked at each other, but Ah Qing didn't understand, "Madam, what do you think?"
