Ye Qingluo sneered, "My Lord, your eyesight is so poor, it's not too late to see clearly now."
"What did you say?" Chu Beiyu's face was terribly gloomy, and the aura around him was oppressive.
Cuizhu outside was terrified when she heard this. She wanted to rush in several times, but she held back when she remembered Ye Qingluo's order.
It seems that the lady was really hurt by the Marquis's behavior, and her temperament has changed drastically.
Facing Chu Beiyu's question, Ye Qingluo showed no fear, and the mockery in his eyes became even stronger, "It seems that the Marquis not only has poor eyesight, but also poor hearing."
"In that case, I'll make it clear here. The clinic is an inheritance from my mother's family. It's not up to others to tell me how to deal with it."
"Also, Lord, please don't forget that it was you who proposed the marriage, not me who pestered you. Don't act like I'm pestering you."
"In other words, without my father's support, you wouldn't be where you are now."
It's really funny that she even said that it's not easy to raise him. No matter how hard Madam Chu works, it's none of her business.
She didn't mention that she had been responsible for all the food, clothing and other expenses in the mansion for the past three years.
This person, on the contrary, started to call for punishment first.
Chu Beiyu's pupils shrank, as if Ye Qingluo had poked him in a painful spot, and he went crazy!
This woman is absolutely crazy!
How dare she speak to me like that? The general who guards the country was demoted. Did she really think she was still the glorious daughter of the general's mansion?
He clenched his fists, veins popping out on his forehead, "Ye Qingluo, do you really think I dare not do anything to you?"
Seeing Chu Beiyu getting excited, Ye Qingluo had no intention of indulging him, "Why, Lord Marquis, do you want to divorce me?"
"But do you dare to do this?"
Everyone in the capital city knows that without her father’s support, there would never be Pingyuan Hou today!
Even though her father was demoted, his prestige from all these years is still there. If Chu Beiyu dares to do this, his official career will come to an end.
Chu Beiyu's expression froze. Just as Ye Qingluo said, he really didn't dare.
Although his "father-in-law" was demoted to the frontier and became a county governor, the soldiers who followed him were still there.
If he divorced Ye Qingluo at this time, he would not only lose his prestige, but also how would the soldiers in the army view him.
Chu Beiyu's attitude softened, and his expression became a little tired. "Qingluo, how far do you want to go before you are satisfied?"
"I was the one who suggested taking a concubine. It has nothing to do with other people. Mother is in poor health. If she really said something serious, couldn't you give in?"
"Do you have to use these things to get angry with me?"
Chu Beiyu realized that Ye Qingluo just wanted to use these things to attract his attention so that he would give up the idea of having a concubine.
"Let's make peace."
Ye Qingluo didn't want to waste any more time talking to the other party. This guy didn't understand anything she said, so she threw the divorce letter she had already written in front of Chu Beiyu.
Chu Beiyu looked at the divorce letter, which not only mentioned the divorce, but also an IOU for 40,000 silver taels.
"what do you mean?"
Chu Beiyu said angrily, "When did I owe you 40,000 taels?"
This woman is really bold. Not only does she want a divorce, but she also asks me to pay back 40,000 taels right away!
Su Wan had just been conferred the title of County Princess by the Emperor because she saved him and because her father was a Shangshu.
Minister Su said that his daughter could not marry like this, and changed the originally agreed price of 30,000 taels to 40,000 taels, otherwise the wedding date which was three days later would be postponed to one month.
Although his reward this time was 60,000 taels, the soldiers in the army and the officials in the court all needed silver to be bribed. Besides these, there were also banquets of all sizes. After all the calculations, what he had left was almost pitiful.
But Ye Qingluo didn't think about how to share the burden with me, and even dared to ask me for 40,000 taels.
It's simply whimsical.
"Cuizhu, bring in those account books."
Cuizhu was startled and walked in with the account book. Chu Beiyu looked puzzled, "What are you doing?"
"Aren't you wondering where the IOU for 40,000 taels came from?"
"Just look at these account books."
Chu Beiyu picked up a book with doubt, looked at the account on it, and said in surprise, "What kind of gift is so expensive, five thousand taels!"
"It costs one thousand taels to buy medicinal materials once?"
Chu Beiyu was very angry, "Ye Qingluo, don't think I don't know that although the clinic has the help of Manager Zhong, you have always been the one managing it."
"Now you are using these trivial matters to fool me. Don't think I don't know what you are up to."
"Yeah, I don't understand why it costs one thousand taels to buy medicinal materials once."
"For the past three years, all the medicinal food that my mother drank was provided by Manager Zhong in the clinic. It was indeed the silver from my dowry. My Lord, tell me who got the remaining silver?"
Chu Beiyu sensed something was wrong, but he didn’t dare to think about it too much. If someone had embezzled the money, the huge profits would be unimaginable.
There were six account books in total, and each one was written clearly. The more Chu Beiyu read, the more upset he felt.
"Ye Qingluo, as the mistress, do you really need to plan these trivial matters so clearly?"
"Don't forget we are a family."
"Not anymore."
"My Lord, you should think about when to return the 40,000 taels to me. If people knew that the Marquis of Pingyuan needed to use a woman's dowry to supplement his household expenses, it would be bad for your reputation."
"Are you threatening me?"
"It's just facts."
Ye Qingluo replied, "My Lord, if there is no problem, please sign this divorce agreement immediately and we will part ways from now on."
"Don't think about it!"
Chu Beiyu said angrily, and tore the divorce letter and the IOU into pieces in front of Ye Qingluo.
Cuizhu saw that something was wrong, so she quickly took back the account books and held them tightly in her arms.
Although I don't know what the lady's real intention is, one thing is true. If it weren't for the lady's dowry to support the family over the past three years, there would be no such thing as it is now.
These account books are real evidence.
Looking at Chu Beiyu's actions, Ye Qingluo sneered, "My Lord, are you not going to admit your mistake?"
"What are you admitting? Ye Qingluo, I'm telling you, whether it's a divorce or a divorce, I won't agree!"
"You'd better give up on this idea!"
"I won't bother with you for now about you making my mother so angry that she is bedridden. But there is one thing that Shopkeeper Zhong must come back for."
Chu Beiyu left these words and turned away.
Tsk! Do you think that as long as you don't divorce, the money spent from the dowry won't count?
You still have the nerve to say that they were all torn up.
He really has the ability!
Cuizhu stood aside holding the account book and asked weakly, "Madam, do you really want to divorce the Marquis?"
"if not."
"But if he disagrees with the Marquis's attitude, then what will happen?"
Ye Qingluo said disdainfully, "I don't care whether he agrees or not! Since he doesn't want to choose, then help him make the decision."
"Ah?" Cuizhu was a little confused, and then asked, "Madam, what are you going to do?"
"Divorce him!"
