The mistress of a marquis's family divorced her husband and married someone else: the scumbag&#

Seeing the other party taking the bait, Ye Qingluo smiled and said that this was what she was waiting for Su Wan to say.

"So when is my sister going to give it to me?"

"Qiao'er, go get those banknotes."

"Second Madam?" Qiao'er was shocked by this scene. She usually thought her master was very smart, but how come he became completely irrational in front of this lady?

"Su Wan, your maid doesn't seem to listen to you."

Ye Qingluo supported his chin with both hands and watched all this quietly.

"You don't need to say more!"

Su Wan couldn't stand hearing Ye Qingluo speak to her in such a tone. After responding viciously, she looked at Qiao'er with an unfriendly look.

"What are you still standing there for? Go now!"

Qiao'er was so frightened by Su Wan's gaze that she shuddered all over and had to go back to her residence to get the banknotes.

An hour later, Su Wan placed the banknotes in front of Ye Qingluo.

"Look carefully, these are 40,000 taels!"

"Ye Qingluo, isn't it time for you to give me the IOU?"

Seeing Su Wan was so straightforward, Ye Qingluo handed over the IOU promptly.

"Su Wan, you must keep these IOUs. If you need money in the future, you can ask the Marquis for it."

Su Wan had just finished counting the IOUs when she heard Ye Qingluo's words. She raised her head with contempt in her eyes.

"Humph, only you would use these tricks to ask the Marquis for money."

Su Wan almost wrote on her face that she was sincere towards Chu Beiyu.

"Ye Qingluo, don't be too proud too soon. With what you have done, the Marquis will divorce you sooner or later!"

Seeing that Su Wan was still saying harsh words, the smile in Ye Qingluo's eyes became even more intense.

"In that case, I will wait and see."

"Humph!"

Cuizhu was still in a state of extreme shock until Su Wan took her people away.

"Madam, did the Second Madam just give the silver away like that?"

She clearly remembered that the news was only released a few days ago, and this person came so quickly. It was simply unbelievable.

"It must be said that Su Wan is deeply in love with Chu Beiyu, but it's a pity that she met the wrong person."

Ye Qingluo couldn't help but think that this bastard was also the one who was deceived by those sweet words.

"What do you think the Marquis would do if he knew what Su Wan did?"

Cuizhu thought for a moment and replied, "I think the Marquis will be very touched."

"That may not be the case." Ye Qingluo sneered. Not only would he not be moved, he might even become angry and embarrassed.

When Su Wan returned to her residence and saw the IOUs, she realized something was wrong.

"Qiao'er, do you think I was deceived by Ye Qingluo?"

"Madam, judging from the amount on the IOU, it is indeed 40,000 taels, but you are too anxious."

"Even if you give me half of it first, it's fine."

"What do you know!" Su Wan tried her best to suppress her inner irritation and scolded, "Even if I don't have a dowry, I still have some properties under my name. I may have enough money to make ends meet. At worst, I can still sell the precious treasures."

"The most important thing is to get these IOUs back. If the Marquis knows about this, he will definitely understand my intentions!"

"You should publicize this matter in the mansion right now, especially let everyone know that Ye Qingluo is a sinister and cunning person. And don't forget about that old woman!"

The worse Ye Qingluo's reputation is, the more beneficial it is to her position in the mansion.

Although Qiao'er was worried about Su Wan's behavior, she did not dare to spoil her interest.

"Madam, something's wrong!"

Cuizhu, who had just returned from outside, came to Ye Qingluo in panic and spoke urgently.

"What's in such a hurry?"

Ye Qingluo looked puzzled and asked in the direction of Cuizhu.

"When I went to the storeroom to count the things just now, I heard someone talking about the IOU. They also said that you are narrow-minded and always haggle over every little thing."

"It's amazing how quickly news spreads."

"Madam, I think the Second Madam must have asked someone to spread this deliberately in order to slander you!"

Seeing that her wife was not in a hurry, Cuizhu became even more anxious.

"Cuizhu, calm down first."

"Let these people say whatever they want, it won't do anything for us."

"But the person who spread the rumor will be in trouble soon."

Cuizhu seemed to understand what was said, but at this moment, a maid walked towards her.

"Madam, the old lady asks you to come over now."

Ye Qingluo responded, but saw Cuizhu looking at her with concern.

"Madam, I will go with you."

"Just stay in the yard. I can handle these things."

As soon as the rumor came out, the old lady hurriedly called me over. I knew what had happened without having to think.

Since Su Wan is so eager to make a big deal out of this, don't regret it.

When I arrived at Madam Chu's courtyard, I heard voices coming from inside as soon as I stepped in.

"Oh my, my sister is here!"

Su Wan, who was talking to Old Madam Chu, stood up quickly when she saw Ye Qingluo.

Old Madam Chu had a gloomy look on her face, and was obviously very unhappy about Ye Qingluo's unannounced intrusion.

Ye Qingluo just glanced at Su Wan and looked towards Old Madam Chu.

"Mother, why did you rush to ask me to come here? What do you want me to do?"

"Humph! Ye, you still remember that you have a mother like me!"

"Some time ago you still remembered to come and pay your respects, but you have become more and more lazy recently!"

"You should really learn from Wan'er about etiquette and stop putting on airs with me all the time!"

Even in front of everyone, Old Madam Chu did not spare any face when she scolded.

Su Wan was secretly delighted and said sarcastically, "Mother, maybe my sister was delayed by something."

"She is the mistress of the mansion after all, and she has a lot more things to do."

Although Madam Chu was angry, she did not say anything more. She turned to Ye Qingluo and said,

"I came to you today to ask you what's going on with the IOU?"

"Ye, are you really so selfish that you let Bei Yu write you an IOU?"

Old Madam Chu stared at her intently, waiting for Ye Qingluo's next words.

When Ye Qingluo raised her eyes, she met Su Wan's slightly smug look. She said that this person would not give up and would go to this extent.

Could it be that he wanted to use the old lady's hand to get those banknotes back?

If so, you have made a wrong calculation.

Seeing that Ye Qingluo didn't reply, Madam Chu became even more angry, "Ye, I'm asking you a question!"

"Mother, I thought Su Wan should have explained the matter of the IOU to you clearly."

Su Wan was shocked. She never expected that Ye Qingluo would bring this matter to her.

"Sister, what do you mean by that?"

"As soon as my sister took the IOU away, the rumor spread all over the house. Could it be that she regretted doing this?"

Seeing that Old Madam Chu was looking at her with suspicion, Su Wan hurriedly asked, "What are you talking about, sister? Since I have already taken out the silver, how can I regret it?"

"Really? Then this rumor..."
