The mistress is mighty, bringing 88 dowries to flatten the Marquis's mansion

"Being willing and being calculated are two different things."

Ruan Shuyan picked up the teacup in front of her and spoke calmly as if she was talking about a trivial matter.

Yang Ning was silent for a long time, then burst into laughter.

"As expected of you, Mrs. Xie. No, it should be Miss Ruan. I, Yang, will take over this matter."

Ruan Shuyan curved her eyebrows and said, "Pack the banknotes for General Yang."

Mother Lai immediately went to find a box and neatly stacked the banknotes into it.

At this time, Ruan Shuyan said again: "There is a lot of rice in my Ruan family's shop. General Yang is welcome to come and buy it. Oh, by the way, we can also help with the transportation, as long as General Yang is willing to pay a little money."

Yang Ning picked up the box and said, "If I need anything, I will definitely look for Miss Ruan. Bye now."

After saying that, Yang Ning strode away.

Chun Tao went forward and closed the door, frowning: "Miss, that's two hundred thousand taels. What if he takes the money but doesn't do anything..."

"A man who can plan for his soldiers will not go back on his word."

Ruan Shuyan held her chin with one hand and said, "Don't stand there. Come and try the snacks here."

Chuntao pursed her lips but didn't say anything. She just grabbed some snacks and stuffed them into her mouth.

Not long after, there was a knock on the door of the private room.

Mother Lai went up to open the door, found out it was Xie Yuchun, and immediately let him in.

Ruan Shuyan smiled and asked, "What's going on?"

Xie Yuchun rubbed his brows and said, "They believed it."

As soon as these words came out, the smile on Ruan Shuyan's face deepened instantly: "Now, let's wait for the results to come out."

Xie Yuchun's heart moved, and he asked, "What terms did you negotiate with Yang Ning?"

"I gave you some silver."

"many……"

Xie Yuchun wanted to ask about the amount, but he stopped himself. If Yang Ning was going to make a move, the amount must be huge, and he couldn't afford it after all.

Seeing that he suddenly fell silent, Ruan Shuyan said softly: "My husband, don't think too much. We are husband and wife, so we should advance and retreat together. But after this incident, those people in the mansion..."

Xie Yuchun said without hesitation: "This is the last chance. If you make mistakes again, I will send them away from the capital."

He can tolerate occasional messing up, but if it keeps causing trouble, there's no point in keeping it.

That night, the two stayed in the inn.

At the same time, Yang Ning led his men to move in Beijing.

The next morning, an IOU was delivered to Ruan Shuyan.

At that time, Xie Yuchun had just come out of court. She took a look at the IOU and handed it to Xie Yuchun.

"My husband, take a look at this IOU. How should we deal with it?"

Xie Yuchun looked at the three characters "Xie Yurui" on it and moved his fingertips slightly: "Send it to the Chen family."

After hearing this, Ruan Shuyan was stunned: "Send it to the Chen family?"

Xie Yuchun nodded: "The day after I returned to Beijing, Chen Yuntang returned to the Chen family. She did not get involved in this matter."

Ruan Shuyan was surprised: "So she doesn't know what Xie Yurui did?"

"Ah."

Ruan Shuyan smiled: "Then let's do as my husband said and send this IOU to the Chen family."

Not long after, Shang Yun delivered the IOU to the Chen family.

Chen Yuntang looked at the amount on it and her fingers trembled uncontrollably. She was not stupid and knew what the IOU represented after a quick thought.

Something happened to the Xie family, and it was a big deal.

She took a deep breath and said, "Someone, go back to the Xie family."

Here, Chen Yuntang left the Chen family.

On the other side, Ruan Shuyan and Xie Yuchun headed towards the Xie family.

By coincidence, the two parties met in front of Xie's door.

After a brief eye contact, Chen Yuntang pursed his lips slightly and said, "Hello, brother and sister-in-law."

Ruan Shuyan said calmly: "I don't dare to be called sister-in-law. You should know what Xie Yurui did, right?"

Chen Yuntang smiled reluctantly: "If the sister-in-law is talking about the IOU of 100,000 taels, then I do know about this matter."

Ruan Shuyan nodded: "For this matter, my husband has already resigned from the emperor. As Xie Yurui's wife, you must also do something to show your gratitude. You must pay back the money you owe, right?"

Chen Yuntang's eyes flickered: "Hasn't this money been repaid?"

Ruan Shuyan smiled, with sarcasm in her eyes: "You don't think that the Ruan family spent this money for nothing?"

"The Ruan family?"

Chen Yuntang realized that this name was wrong, and subconsciously asked: "Didn't the eldest sister-in-law take it out?"

Xie Yuchun coughed lightly and said, "That was the loan I got in exchange for marrying into the family."

Marry into the wife's family? Borrow money?

Chen Yuntang opened his eyes wide: "Didn't my sister-in-law marry into the Xie family? Why are you talking about marrying into the family now?"

She was so shocked that she didn't even hide the doubts in her heart.

Ruan Shuyan said calmly: "We didn't get married, we were just husband and wife in name only. It's the same if we say it another way now."

"This……"

Chen Yuntang wanted to say it was ridiculous, but she swallowed the words back suddenly when they reached her lips, because she found that no one could refute this statement.

"Okay, stop standing here, hurry in and clean up. The Xie family can no longer live in this mansion."

Ruan Shuyan deliberately slowed down her voice and met Xie Yuchun's eyes. After a brief pause, they quickly separated. They had made up their minds to use this incident to teach Xie Yurui and Old Madam Xie a lesson.

Until the very end, there will be no signs of abnormality.

In the front hall, several people from the Xie family sat down one after another.

Madam Xie looked at Ruan Shuyan above her and suppressed her anger: "I heard that the IOU was taken back?"

"That's right, but the money was paid by the Ruan family, so the second branch still has to pay the Ruan family back."

Ruan Shuyan spoke casually. Except for Xie Yuchun and Chen Yuntang, the remaining three members of the Xie family were all confused.

Madam Xie slapped the armrest and said, "Now that the IOU has been taken back, is there any reason to ask my in-laws to pay back the money?"

"relatives by marriage?"

Ruan Shuyan seemed to have heard a joke, her eyes suddenly turned cold: "Madam, do you still remember what you said before?"

Madam Xie's eyes flickered. "That was just a moment of anger, and I just said something I didn't think was right. As a junior, you can't still argue with me, right?"

"You have already said that I am a junior, how dare I argue with you? But the words have been spoken after all. If you really want to minimize the impact, then why don't you go to the Ruan Mansion and show your sincerity?"

Madam Xie looked humiliated and turned to look at Xie Yuchun: "Yuchun, you let her humiliate me like this? I am your mother!"

Xie Yuchun sighed: "Mother, I have already married into the Ruan family."

"what?"

Madam Xie's voice suddenly rose: "You married into the family, but you borrowed the money? No, how can you marry into the family?"

Xie Yuchun said nonchalantly: "I told my mother about this yesterday."

"That's different. You are the eldest son of the Xie family. How can you marry into the family easily? Wait, what about the court? Did you resign from the court as well?"

After getting a positive answer, Mrs. Xie rolled her eyes and fell backwards.

"Hurry up and ask the doctor to come! The old lady is fainting!"
