Only then did Lian Fang Zhou understand which Su family Lian Li was talking about. She was startled and wondering, but she still didnât show up on her face. She smiled faintly: âIt turns out that itâs from the Su family! Auntie instruct me, how should we react?â
Could it be that my cousin sent someone here? But if this is the case, shouldnât they come here? Why did they go to the uncleâs house?
Lian Fang Zhou couldnât help but feel annoyed. Maybe it was her uncle who coaxed and deceived him in order to take the person away. Who told him to bear the name of his uncle? Where do people from the Su family know the twists and turns between their home and her home? This kind of thing was very likely.
These two work so well, they really didnât know what happened to the person sent by their cousin or what that person had left behind?
However, no matter what Lian Li said and claimed to be from the Su family, Lian Fang Zhou would not believe it. She wondered if she should go to Suâs house and ask her cousin?
âYouââ
âOkay! You know which Su family it is!â Lian Li interrupted Madam Qiao with a wave of his hand. Today, he was talking about important matters and taking power, he didnât want to waste too much time on trivial aspects, too. It wasnât worth it anymore!
Moreover, it makes no sense!
As long as you could take the silver and the land in your own hands, what about it?
Madam Qiao was very dissatisfied about being interrupted. She snorted and glanced at him but didnât insist on saying anything.
Lian Li looked at Lian Fang Zhou and said, âMaster Su left these words, so you can hear clearly. Master Su said, let me take care of the cotton stuff from now on and give me the money and land deeds. Leave it to me! Such a big thing is not something you can do as a little girl, it only looks decent if I come to take charge! The Su Familyâs money is not blown by the wind, they canât just watch and be paid clean by you!â
âWhat?â Lian Fang Zhou opened her eyes wide, confused more than surprised.
She looked at Lian Li, but she couldnât recover for a while, not able to laugh or cry!
He spoke righteously but the silver was clearly borrowed from her cousin, so naturally it was up to her to arrange how to spend it. Her cousinâs husband would not say something so muddled!
Moreover, listening to the uncleâs meaning, this silver was not borrowed from him, but rather like it was still the Su familyâs.
And her cousinâs husband, she knew that he was famous in Shuang Liu county for only paying attention to eating, drinking, and having a good time. There was no reason for him to go out for such a matter and moreover, even if he did go out, it would definitely be in a large carriage. How would she not know he had come?
Thinking about it this way, Lian Fang Zhou is more inclined to believe he was lying. But how could he have such full confidence? It shouldnât be!
She smiled and did not speak.
âIs what I said is not clear enough?â Lian Li raised his brows, his tone became sober, and said coldly: âYou quickly hand over the land deed and the remaining silver. How did you spend the previous silver? Give me an explanation! These are the words left by Young Master Su, do you dare not listen?â
When Third Aunt heard what Lian Li said so confidently, she was also a little anxious. She couldnât help but glanced at Lian Fang Zhou nervously. But when she saw that Lian Fang Zhouâs expression remained unchanged, she felt a little calm in her heart.
âMaster Su?â Lian Fang Zhou asked rhetorically.
âYes!â Lian Li thought she was weakening and said quite proudly: âYou can hand it over quickly, otherwise everyone will not look good!â
Lian Fang Zhou sneered and said lightly: âYou said it was Su Gongzi? How do I know if it is true or if you have lied to me? Since you say Su Gongzi with your mouth, why donât you bring me proof? He came to you to explain in person? How can I believe something like this without evidence?â
âYou are really shameless!â Madam Qiao couldnât help cursing.
Lian Fang Zhou sneered and said, âI donât know who is shameless if they dare to say such things without proof or evidence!â
âDonât talk about anything else! Just talk about this!â Lian Li knew that Lian Fang Zhou was an innocent person and stopped the conversation in time. Moreover, she has several brothers and sisters in this room, and each of them could easily match his wife, so there will be no way to talk.
Although he had expected that Lian Fang Zhou would deny it, Lian Li was still very angry when he heard her say so in person.
âI knew you wouldnât admit it,â Lian Li thought in his heart, after we get the silver and the title deed, letâs see who can walk and talk in the future!
He pushed down the anger in his heart, and said with a sullen face: âToday, Young Master Su and his servant both rode into town. I was not alone when I saw the tall horse entering the village! And the gifts he brought to our house are all very expensive, it is impossible for people like us to spare money for such things! This is all evidence. If you donât believe it, lets go find a witness to confirm. You can also go to our house to see the gifts!â
Lian Fang Zhouâs curiosity was even more aroused, and she couldnât help asking: âYou said they were a master and servant? They were riding horses?â
Riding horses in this weather, and only bringing a small servant, cousin-in-law would not do such a thing!
A figure flashed through Lian Fang Zhouâs mind.
However, he was not from the Su family. Why did the uncle keep spitting out âMaster Suâ? Just what the hell was going on!
Lian Fang Zhou couldnât help but rubbed her aching temples. She was really confused.
Seeing Lian Fang Zhouâs look like this, Lian Li didnât ask anything at all. He was so angry that he almost made smoke. He shouted in a low voice, âFang Zhou! Donât argue with me. Hand over the things quickly!â
âUncle,â Lian Fang Zhou laughed, and said: âThis Young Master Su doesnât know you, so how could he go to your house with a good manners? He also brought a generous gift?â
âThatâs all for us! Donât even think about it!â Madam Qiao said without even asking Fang Zhou.
Naturally, Lian Li was reluctant to take those things out but he was not as shameless as Madam Qiaoâs. After listening to Madam Qiaoâs words, and seeing Lian Fang Zhouâs slightly raised mouth, he couldnât help his old face flushed and stared at Madam Qiao again. He glanced at her and said: âThat is because people respect the elderly and understand etiquette!â
Lian Ze couldnât listen anymore, and couldnât help but said, âIf it werenât for us, how would the Su family know who you were? Itâs not because you occupy the reputation of our uncle!â
âWhat are you talking about! The Su family value us, that is to know that our family Haiâer will become an official in the future, so we are worthy of walking around with others, unlike you!â Madam Qiaoâs face was contemptuous.
âAuntie, it seems that Brother Hai will only take the exam for scholars next year!â Lian Ze said, âThe Su family is the richest family in Shuang Liu County. I donât know how many officials and squires come and go!
Lian Zeâs words still gave them a face, and he didnât directly say anything bad.
Madam Qiao was still angry, and couldnât help but want to speak again. However, she was stopped by Lian Li again: âIf you donât say anything else today, it would be very good! You give me a break and shut your mouth! Fang Zhou, I have said enough. You understand?â
