Chapter 133 The Vicious Stepmother of the General’s Mansion (22)
Author: Lychee Salted Fish
Moreover, her daughter-in-law is not very good at doing things. Now that she knows that she owes the money, why do she still come to ask her? This is disrespectful to her.
The old lady looked at Lin Wan with an increasingly unkind look.
Lin Wan ignored her and said, "Mom, haven't you been feeling well these past few days and haven't gone out? Why did you go out to perform a horse funeral? And it was just after the general's funeral."
The old lady's face became more and more ugly, not only because she lost face, but also because Lin Wan said that her son was dead.
Yes, her son was indeed dead in the eyes of outsiders, but she knew that her son was fine. As a mother, she heard other people talking about her son's funeral just after his death. How could she not be angry? Moreover, that person
Still her daughter-in-law.
But she couldn't say anything because Lin Wan didn't know at all.
So she could only hold it in her heart.
"You don't need to worry so much. Just give the money to those two people tomorrow." The old lady didn't want to say anything more, but Lin Wan didn't want to just let it go. "Did Mom sign the IOU at that time?"
"Hmm." The old lady hummed impatiently. Fortunately, she was still a lady, so she didn't know how to read other people's eyes. Didn't you see that she, the mother-in-law, didn't want to say anything more to her, so she left quickly.
Lin Wan then said, "Mom, although the mansion can get so much silver, it has to be spent from the treasury. The mansion does not have so much silver for daily expenses." It was impossible for her to pay this amount.
It was said to be 130,000 taels, but she was not willing to spend even 130,000 taels.
She didn't believe that the old lady could talk like this, touch her daughter-in-law's dowry, and make people laugh to death if she said it.
Whoever owes money will pay it back.
She holds the keys to the two most important treasuries in the house. Returning the money is not stressful for her, but it will be painful.
I just want her to feel pain, otherwise I won’t even know how much money I have lost.
She really dares to play.
The old lady pursed her lips, and her sharp eyes fell directly on Lin Wan, "Don't you want to cushion it first?" She paused, "I will take it out from the treasury and return it to you after I feel better."
Lin Wan snorted in her heart. She really dared to think about it. She could guarantee that if she advanced this money, she would never get it back. If she believed it, she would be really stupid.
"Mom, it's not that my daughter-in-law doesn't want it, it's that my daughter-in-law doesn't have that much cash. If she wants to get enough, she has to sell her jewelry." It's not that she can't afford it, it's just that she simply doesn't want to.
They are only a family temporarily now, but they will no longer be together in the future. Why should you spend so much money on her? Besides, even if you spend money, you may not be remembered well by others.
So, why does she do such a thankless thing?
Wouldn’t it be nice for her to keep the money and spend it on herself?
The old lady's face became more and more ugly. She knew that she had been thinking about the key in her hand. She didn't want it voluntarily at the beginning. "You want to take the key to the treasury from me?"
Lin Wan immediately said, "Mom, look what you said, since I agreed to give you the key, my daughter-in-law will not regret it." She was not interested in taking care of the keys to their home at all. After getting the key, the money was gone.
It's not hers, and she still has to fight with the old lady. She has enough to eat and has nothing to do, right?
If she has this time, wouldn't it be better for her to think of more ways to make more money?
If she could, she wouldn't even bother to take care of the family's affairs. She would just take care of it in order to have a good reputation when they divorced in the future. Now if someone tells her that she wants to take care of this family, she will definitely let him.
Bit.
At first, the original owner wanted to please the old lady, so he agreed not to give up the key to the treasury. He felt that they were all a family and relatively simple, so he did not forcefully ask for it. The old lady coaxed him over with just a few words, but the original owner regarded him as his own family.
Others don't regard her as family.
Fortunately, she would reconcile with Xu Jinchuan, otherwise she would definitely have to find a way to get the key.
It's completely unnecessary now. She had the key. Maybe something was missing when they divorced, and she was said to be greedy.
She could make a lot of money by taking care of the original owner's dowry, and she had nothing to do with the General's mansion.
"My daughter-in-law just suggested that my mother withdraw the money from the house. Otherwise, when the two women come tomorrow, we won't be able to get the money and it won't look good." She was sure that the old lady definitely didn't have so much money in her hands, and she wanted to pay back the money.
, I definitely have to leave the house.
The old lady's face was gloomy. She knew what Lin Wan said made sense, but she was still a little angry when she heard Lin Wan disrespect her so much.
Besides, who knows if she wants to take the key from her hand.
If Lin Wan knew what she was thinking, he would definitely sneer at her. She has nothing to do.
"Mom, why don't your daughter-in-law ask those two women to come find you tomorrow? After all, only mother knows what's going on in this matter best." Lin Wan naturally saw what the old lady was thinking and said casually, she was too lazy to care.
Woolen cloth.
The old lady said with a livid face, "No need." She called Ma Huang again, "You and my wife go to the warehouse and withdraw 130,000 taels."
Seeing the old lady's distrust, Lin Wan didn't care, "Huang Ma, please take the money and send it to my yard. It's so late, so I won't bother you." After a pause, "Mom, I won't disturb you for now.
It’s time to rest.” The goal has been achieved, it doesn’t matter whether you stay or not.
The old lady gritted her teeth angrily. You knew it was too late, but she still maintained a kind face, "Well, you can go back first."
Lin Wan gave a few more instructions and left.
"Madam, why don't you take the opportunity to get the key?" Tao's mother asked.
"Now is not the best time." Lin Wan said lightly. The key was that she had no such intention at all. She had never thought about asking for the key in the old lady's hand, but there was no need to let Tao Ma know about this.
"What the madam said is that if you want it now, the old madam will definitely not be willing." Tao's mother looked at Lin Wan with a look of relief. The madam is really sensible. Before she got married, she was worried that the madam would not be able to handle the affairs in the house.
After all, Madam never cared about these things when she was at home. Even if she did, she would always be there to help her. She had never handled matters in the house independently.
But Madam has really given her a big surprise these days. Whether it is managing the store or the village, or doing chores in the mansion and teaching the young masters in the mansion, Madam has handled it very well, especially in teaching the young masters.
There wasn't even a single mistake.
Although the Madam usually quarrels with the Second Young Master, anyone with a discerning eye can see at a glance that the Madam takes the Second Young Master under her thumb, not only the Second Young Master, but also the other two young masters and the young lady.
Can't make any waves.
Tao's mother couldn't help but think of the general who died early, and she began to feel distressed again. My wife was still young and had no children of her own. How would she live in the future?
If it doesn't work, let the master and the others find another marriage for the wife in a few years. Although it is not nice to say that she is remarrying, but the wife has no biological children, it is normal for her mother's family to take people back, and the wife manages the general's mansion in an orderly manner.
