When Guan Surong opened her eyes, she saw Liu Caizhu and Liu Hui standing aside, looking arrogant, while she herself was tied up in the yard together with Madam Guan.
Mr. Liu had a fierce look on his face. He looked at Madam Guan and Guan Surong and sneered, "You two were so quick to run away. If you don't marry your daughter to my son, then return the money."
Mrs. Guan was frightened to death by the scene of Mr. Liu, and hurriedly explained to him, "Mr. Liu, this is all a misunderstanding. Su Rong never said she would not marry your son. Now Su Rong is still single and has not promised anyone else. If you still miss Su Rong, let's pick an auspicious date to get married. It won't affect the two children..."
Before Madam Guan finished her words, Mr. Liu spat at her, "Bah, how can there be such a shameless person like you in this world? I know that your daughter has become someone's concubine, and now that she has been kicked out, she has thought of our family again. We don't want such a slut."
Seeing this, Madam Guan hurriedly asked, "Since the rich man doesn't want Su Rong to marry your son, why did you invite my mother and me here?"
Mr. Liu snorted coldly and said slowly, "I think you two still look charming. If you sell them to a brothel, you can probably get a good price. Although, I still lost a lot in the end, maybe every bit I get back is good."
Mr. Liu's words frightened the mother and daughter to death. Mrs. Guan responded immediately, "We are the wives of officials. If you do this and are reported to the government, you will probably lose everything and go to jail. You should think carefully."
"Official family?" Mr. Liu sneered after hearing what Mrs. Guan said. "Do you think you are still the same lady? Your master has been dead for many years. Now you come to seek refuge with your relatives, but they drive you out. What other options do you have?"
"There is still a way out. Also, if you wait for me for a few more days, I will immediately find money to pay you back." Guan Surong was already crying from fear, and said to the rich man, "If you can trust me this time, I will pay you back within three days."
"I let you go? Does that mean I let you run away? Do you think I'm a fool?" Mr. Liu glanced at Guan Surong with a cold expression, "I won't let you go. Just go to the brothel and receive customers and pay your debts."
Guan Surong felt desperate, but fortunately she saw Liu Hui, the son of the wealthy Liu, standing behind her. Guan Surong knew that Liu Hui had loved her in the past. When Guan Surong saw Liu Hui, it was like she had found a life-saving straw. She hurriedly said to Liu Hui, "Ah Hui, Ah Hui... please save me, ask your father to let me go for three days and give me a chance. I will pay you back within three days. I was sorry for you at the beginning, but this marriage was arranged by my father, and it has nothing to do with me..."
Liu Hui was moved when he heard Guan Surong say this, and said to Guan Surong, "Surong, how could you have lived to such a point..."
Guan Surong was indifferent. Seeing Liu Hui's face getting uglier and uglier, she cried miserably. "I don't want to explain everything that happened in the past. But no matter how much I have been wronged, I will always remember your kindness. If you are not forced to do so, who would want to be someone else's concubine?"
Guan Surong's words finally moved Liu Hui. He turned around and looked at Mr. Liu and pleaded, "Father, since Surong said she can pay the money back within three days, why don't we believe her this time and let her go out to find money."
"You're such a useless thing. This woman treated you like this, and you still have fantasies about her? You really disappoint your father. How many times do you have to be deceived by her before you learn your lesson?" As Mr. Liu Caizhu said this, he rolled his eyes at Guan Surong.
Seeing this, Liu Hui said to Mr. Liu, "If you don't believe me, why not let her go out and find money? If you can't find the money, it won't be too late to sell her. After all, she still has an old mother in our hands. She shouldn't ignore her own mother, right?"
"That's the case. Rich man, think about it, two or three days won't make a difference. Wouldn't it be a great joy for both of us if I get the money back? By then, Rich Man Liu will also have money, and we can leave happily." Guan Surong was really scared at this moment and didn't dare to breathe.
Seeing this, Mr. Liu narrowed his eyes and thought carefully, then said to Guan Surong, "Well, go and look for her. If you don't come in three days, I will sell your mother to a brothel and let her be ridden by thousands of people."
When Guan Surong heard this, she bit her lip and trembled as she spoke, "How much is it? I'll go get it."
"It's thirty thousand taels of silver in total. You can decide for yourself. Not a single tael of silver can be less." Mr. Liu looked at Guan Surong and sneered, "I didn't take the small amount of money your father borrowed from me seriously, so I won't ask you for it. As long as you return the thirty thousand taels to our family, we will part ways and go our separate ways."
"Thirty thousand taels of silver? How much is that, just what you said?" Mrs. Guan asked from the side.
"The betrothal gift list is still here, Madam Guan, please don't try to deny it." Mr. Liu said coldly, looking at Guan Surong, "Miss Guan, you should think about it carefully and find a way to raise the money."
Guan Surong responded with tears in her eyes and was about to go out, but she heard Madam Guan shouting from behind, "Daughter, you must bring money to save your mother."
Guan Surong paused and quickly walked out of the yard.
But now, the only solution she could think of was to go to find Wen Tingbo. After all, she was the only son of a marquis who had a relationship with her. She had long lost face in the Song Mansion and the Prime Minister's Mansion. She was afraid that it would be difficult for her to even meet them, let alone borrow money.
Guan Surong was filled with despair. She hurried to the gate of Marquis Zhongping's mansion and said to the servant at the gate, "Please inform Mr. Bai in the mansion and tell him that Guan Surong is outside asking to see Mr. Bai."
As Guan Surong spoke, she took out a piece of silver from her sleeve and stuffed it into the hand of the servant in front of her.
The servant smiled happily when he saw the money and walked into the yard, asking Guan Surong to wait at the door for a while. Guan Surong paced back and forth at the door, still feeling desperate in her heart, as thirty thousand taels of silver was not something that could be taken out casually.
After a while, Wen Tingbai came out. When Guan Surong saw Wen Tingbai, it was as if she had seen the last straw. She strode forward and knelt on the ground with a plop. "Second Master Bai, I know you have always been kind-hearted. Please save me and my mother, Second Master Bai."
