Chapter 178 The compensation money must be kept
Chapter 178 The compensation money must be kept
Picked up?
Mrs. Liu seemed to be struck by lightning and just stood there in a daze.
Her son was taken away by a eunuch. Where did this eunuch come from? Could it be that the emperor already knew about the conflict between Prince Rui and her son and wanted to kill him to vent his anger?
Old Madam Liu and Liu Funing looked at each other, and both saw astonishment in each other's eyes.
The people in the palace took Zhang Jueping away, not because he was talented, but most likely they wanted to get rid of him, or even take action against the Zhang family.
Liu Funing made a quick judgment that their Earl's Mansion could not be too involved with the Zhang family, otherwise it would definitely lead to fatal disaster. He looked at Madam Liu and said:
"Mother, let's go back home! After all, the matter of buying and selling the farm has nothing to do with our Earl's Mansion, and it's enough for us to make this trip for our sister."
When Mrs. Liu heard this, she turned around suddenly and looked at her eldest brother with disbelief on her face.
She knew exactly what Liu Funing meant. He was afraid that his son's affairs would bring trouble to the Earl's Mansion.
But he is her elder brother, and the Earl of Yongkang's Mansion is her mother's home. Are they planning to ignore her and her son?
"Brother, are you planning to leave like this?" asked Mrs. Liu.
Liu Funing frowned. He followed his mother to the Su family in order to get back the 40,000 taels of silver, but now it seems that the Su family has no intention of returning the money.
And now Su Zhiru is back, what else can they do if they don’t leave?
"What else can I do if I don't leave? Can you go to court and explain why you bought the manor?"
The Su family now has the upper hand. Can Mrs. Liu risk her son's reputation?
Mrs. Liu's body swayed, looking as if she was about to fall.
"Madam, please think of a solution quickly. The young master is seriously injured. The doctor said he needs to rest. When they were moving him, I saw that the young master fainted again."
Zhang Jueping's servant said anxiously.
"If you want to leave, leave quickly and don't embarrass yourself in our mansion." said old Mrs. Kang.
These rebellious people dared to ask her for money, they should all be beaten to death!
Mrs. Liu didn't care about much at this time and wanted to leave in a hurry, but she heard Su Qingwan suddenly say:
"Wait!"
As soon as she spoke, everyone looked over.
Old Kang's eyelids were twitching. What was this little bitch trying to do?
If she dares to ask me to return the money, I will definitely punish her today.
With Su Qingwan's words, the way of Da Liu and others was blocked, and they couldn't leave even if they wanted to.
"Su Qingwan, you are stopping us, what do you want to do?" Mrs. Liu was worried about her son, but the people who were stopping them were tall and strong, so they couldn't leave even if they wanted to.
"So many of you came and made a big fuss in the Marquis' Mansion. Not only did you smash things, but you also injured people. Now you want to pat your butts and leave as if nothing happened. How can that be possible?" Su Qingwan curled her lips and smiled.
Since Mrs. Liu and Old Madam Liu came to her on their own initiative, she naturally would not be polite to them.
When Liu and Xiaokang heard this, they immediately understood what Su Qingwan was going to do. She wanted the Zhang and Liu families to pay compensation.
"Yes, we can't let them go like this. We have to pay compensation." Xiaokang echoed.
She had just been beaten by the old woman from the Earl's Mansion by grabbing her hair. How could this matter be let go so easily? She had to make them pay compensation and not be beaten in vain.
"Liu, you are the mistress of a marquis's mansion, and you just watch them shouting like that?" Old Madam Liu glared at Liu, feeling extremely angry.
If she had known that Liu was so stupid, she should not have kept her in her room and let her marry into the Chengping Marquis's Mansion.
"Mother, I..." Liu also became embarrassed in the struggle just now. She wanted to explain that she couldn't do anything to Su Qingwan, but she couldn't ignore the comfort in her heart.
Old Madam Liu came to the Marquis' Mansion to cause trouble for the sake of the eldest Liu, but she never thought about how she would continue to stay in the Marquis' Mansion after doing so.
Moreover, there was already a rift between him and Mrs. Liu, and it was almost impossible to restore their previous relationship.
Besides, when Old Madam Liu and Liu Funing saw me come out just now, they didn’t ask about my situation at all. How could they treat me as a relative?
"Madam Liu, why are you scolding my aunt? I'm just reasoning with you. You just need to pay for the broken things according to their prices, and pay for the medicine for the injured. I just calculated it, and all together, you only need to pay 20,000 taels."
Su Qingwan looked at Old Madam Liu and smiled brightly.
"Twenty thousand taels? Why don't you go and rob?"
Liu Funing screamed in a shrill voice, like a rooster with its neck strangled.
"Robbery? Not impossible!"
As soon as Su Qingwan finished speaking, Qingda and others surrounded her, ready to fight.
"I've never heard of anyone actively asking for robbing in my life. It makes me a little uncomfortable."
"I'm afraid all these people combined can't raise 20,000 taels."
"Hand over all your valuables!"
……
Robbery is the specialty of the people in Qinglin Village, and they are all very good at it.
Such a situation made Old Madam Liu's hands tremble with anger, and Liu Funing's face turned pale. They never expected that there would be such a person as Su Qingwan in the Marquis' Mansion.
"You, what do you want to do? Back off now!" Old Lady Liu yelled.
But the people in Qinglin Village didn't care about that. Someone directly pulled off the jade pendant hanging around Liu Funing's waist.
"This thing is in pretty good condition, worth some money!"
"I say you should take out the money yourself, otherwise it will be impossible for you to step out of the gate of Chengping Marquis Mansion."
Someone kindly gave advice.
"Bastard! How can this be! Bastard..." Old Lady Liu shouted.
She was the old lady, and these men from Qinglin Village never attacked her. Instead, they robbed Liu Funing cleanly, even stripping off his brocade robe.
Mrs. Liu was stunned. She had heard Mrs. Liu say before that Su Qingwan was a person who didn't know etiquette. Now that she saw it with her own eyes, she believed that Mrs. Liu was not exaggerating.
Old Kang and Little Kang were very happy when they saw the miserable state of Liu's mother and son.
It’s a pity that no one touched Madam Liu, as her head ornaments and jewelry were worth a lot of money.
Just as I was thinking about it, Aunt Rong and a few maids came forward.
"Madam Liu, I'm sorry."
As soon as the words fell, Aunt Rong rushed to the pearl necklace on Old Madam Liu's neck, and the Zhao family began to buckle the ring on Old Madam Liu's hand.
She took off all the gold and jade items, and even pulled off the purple jade bracelet on Old Madam Liu's wrist.
Old Madam Liu cursed loudly, but her body was quite strong and she did not fall down.
When Mrs. Liu saw her mother being bullied, she rushed over to help, but she was caught by the Zhao family and beaten to a pulp by another maid.
