The Empress came ashore and beheaded the meritorious officials, forcing me to wear the yellow robe
Chapter 41 Who is the better helper, the wife or the husband?
Huang Suqiu was anxious, but she didn't dare to lose her temper with her mother-in-law. She could only look at Chen Anran with gritted teeth.
It’s all because of this troublemaker!
Suddenly he brought back a bunch of gifts, and then suddenly said something about a three percent profit. How could such a good thing happen in the world?
The most annoying thing was Wang Yuanya, who was standing aside, sticking out her tongue and lowering her head.
What daughter-in-law?
She joined in the fun!
Huang Suqiu took a deep breath and put on a smile as she looked at Old Lady Li and said, "Mother-in-law, our family is now full of women and children! Suqiu is not saying that she won't take the money, but...should we wait for a man to come back and discuss it first?"
Before Old Lady Li could speak, Chen Anran spoke first, "Men are back to discuss this? Brother Jin has gone to the Central Plains to fight, leaving only my Ji Huan and your idiot son at home! What? Do you think a fool can be the head of this family?"
Huang Suqiu was so angry when she heard this!
She pointed at Chen Anran's nose, widened her eyes and scolded, "I'm warning you! Don't call my Ji Ze a fool again, or I'll make you pay!"
Chen Anran shrank back behind Old Lady Li and then yelled, "What? Grandma asked you to hand over the money! You're making excuses. Is there something shameful about the accounts?"
After hearing this, Old Lady Li was shocked, and Huang Suqiu's face changed drastically with fear.
She immediately started cursing, "You bitch! What did you say?"
At this point, Huang Suqiu looked at the old lady Li, whose expression was not right. She was so frightened that she quickly waved her hands and said, "Mother-in-law, don't listen to her nonsense! You know Suqiu best. I've been married into the Li family for so many years! I've never taken a penny from home, so how could I cook the books?"
"The past is the past, and the present is the present! Your son is stupid. Even if you don't consider yourself, you should at least consider his future! It's normal for you to hide some money from the Li family and give it to him!"
"Shut up! Bitch, if you keep talking nonsense, I'll tear your mouth apart!"
Huang Suqiu was furious and shouted loudly.
Chen Anran was so scared that he immediately shut his mouth, turned his head away and stopped talking nonsense.
Huang Suqiu was just about to say something to her mother-in-law?
But the next moment...
Old Madam Li raised her hand to stop her from saying anything else. She said coldly, "Hey, Suqiu! You don't need to say more. You've been married into our Li family for so many years. Your mother-in-law naturally knows what kind of person you are."
Hearing this, Huang Suqiu breathed a sigh of relief.
but……
"But An Ran's words do make sense! The Li family brought their own servants this time, and the court is facing difficulties. If there really is a business that can earn a three-tenths profit every month, we should contribute some money and make some money to help His Majesty!"
"Mother-in-law! Three percent interest a month, that's impossible no matter how you think about it!"
Huang Suqiu was still unwilling to hand over the warehouse and tried her best to persuade them.
After all this, Old Lady Li was pissed off.
She stabbed the dragon's head stick hard into the floor, making a "crackling" sound, and then said coldly, "Suqiu! Mother-in-law has already made it very clear. What's the matter? You are still making excuses. Is there really something shameful going on in this warehouse?"
This one sentence was like a bolt from the blue for Huang Suqiu.
She froze on the spot, her nose sore and her eyes red as she said, "God, swear to your conscience! Mother-in-law, ever since Suqiu married into the Li family, she's been living on simple food and mending clothes. Even my son's monthly allowance was honestly paid to the Li family. How could I go against my conscience and falsify accounts to embezzle the Li family's money?"
"Hmph! You don't have to tell me anything, I'll find out everything!"
At this point, Old Lady Li stretched out her hand and shouted, "Someone come here!"
After a while...
The old butler and servant outside the door walked in.
"old lady!"
"I want to take back the key to the Li family's warehouse now. Is that okay?"
"This……"
The old housekeeper was embarrassed. He looked at his wife Huang Suqiu, who looked angry and grief-stricken, then looked at Old Madam Li and said with an awkward smile, "Old Madam, you are joking. This is the Li family! Naturally, you have the final say."
For a moment, everyone's eyes were fixed on Huang Suqiu.
Huang Suqiu subconsciously clenched the key in her arms, feeling a little at a loss.
At this critical juncture...
"Since there is such a good opportunity to make a fortune, you have to hand over the keys anyway!"
A familiar voice sounded, and everyone turned around to look.
Then I saw Li Jize walking back with a small iron pipe and a file, filing the iron pipe while doing so!
Poor thing! Huang Suqiu was almost bullied to death by this group of people.
When she saw her son coming back, her nose felt sore and her eyes turned red.
"Ji...Ji Ze, you..."
Li Jize just smacked his lips and muttered inexplicably, "The Li family has been passed down from the reign of Emperor Taizu to the present day. As the head of a noble family, I think they should have quite a bit of money saved! A three-tenths interest a month..."
He pretended to count on his fingers, then turned to look at his mother, Huang Suqiu, and said jokingly, "That's a lot of money! Mom, how can you stop someone from getting rich?"
When Wang Yuanya heard this, her heart was filled with joy. Who could have thought that at the critical moment, a fool would provide such a great assist!
Great! The plan is almost done.
As long as she succeeds, not only can she collect intelligence, but she can also successfully take revenge on the ruthless Li family.
Huang Suqiu, the mother, sighed and shook her head. "You're talking nonsense again, kid! Three-tenths interest a month, how much money is that? How can you believe that pie in the sky will fall?"
"Mom! The whole capital is going crazy over this. Everyone is voting, and our family is no exception. Besides..."
At this point, Li Jize looked around at the Li family members and sneered, "If you don't hand over the key in this situation, won't it prove that we, mother and son, have dirty hands?"
Huang Suqiu: “…”
She gripped the key tightly and looked at the Li family members present, each of them staring at her.
It’s true, everyone was looking at her nervously, expecting and hoping.
Huang Suqiu finally smiled bitterly, shook her head, and sighed, "Forget it! Since it was Brother Jin who asked me to keep it, and you are the mother-in-law, if you insist on taking it back, there is nothing I can do as the daughter-in-law!"
After that…
Seeing the relieved look in Old Lady Li's eyes, she finally handed the key over.
The concubine was overjoyed! She finally got the key! All she had to do was take the Li family's money to Boss Zhang, make a three-tenths profit, and then return it! She would be the first to do it!
The old butler also smiled happily. With his wife on one side and the old lady on the other, he finally didn't have to be embarrassed.
As for Wang Yuanya, she was even happier.
It worked! My plan finally came true.
Next, since the Li family has so much money, she can go with them to deliver the money in the name of supervision.
Of course, no one could have guessed that the happiest person must be the "evil-hearted" Li Jize...
As the head of the noble family, the Li family has been passed down for hundreds of years. I wonder how much silver they have accumulated?
