Chapter 122 mind(1/2)
"I believe Yuansheng already knows the decree of the Emperor to donate. Our family is going to donate 5,000 taels!"
Shi mentioned the matter of giving donations, which made He Yuansheng feel moved and he thought to himself: "Does he want money?"
Next, Shi's words proved this.
"In addition, the emperor went to the harem and signaled to the empress that if there were family members who were willing to pay the donation, they could be granted titles and official positions!"
He Yuansheng immediately understood that Shi was planning for his youngest son, and when he saw He Zheng's warm gaze, he was afraid that the mother and son had a great ambition.
"So my grandmother plans to take this opportunity to find a background for your second uncle!"
Speaking of this, Shi stopped talking, but looked at He Yuansheng and waited for the other party's statement.
But He Yuansheng did not cooperate and pretended to be stupid and sat on the chair without saying a word.
If it was a few small money, in order to make the heart clear, maybe He Yuan had a grand event, but it was obvious that the intention of Shi and the second wife was that he would not waste money.
Seeing that He Yuansheng didn't say anything, Shi was a little angry and helpless, but her younger son was her heart. Now that she has the chance, how could she let it go?
"Grandma has thought about it. Taking advantage of this rare opportunity, she will donate 100,000 taels to change your second uncle's title. If you have the chance in the future, you can go out to become an official!"
Even though he knew that Shi's ambition was quite good, He Yuansheng was a little surprised. He didn't expect that the other party wanted to donate 100,000 taels.
After looking at the couple in the big house again, He Jing didn't say a word, while Jia was full of resentment, afraid that these two people would be forced to exhale a lot of blood.
However, He Yuansheng still didn't say anything, because he didn't care about anything in the mansion without a trace of him.
This attitude of being out of the matter annoyed Xue, and he immediately said coldly: "Why didn't Yuan Sheng express his opinion on such a big deal in our family!"
"Speak, what's your opinion? Aren't the two houses separated? The second uncle wants to pay the donation, just pay the donation, and my nephew has no objection!"
Shi is the grandmother. Even if He Yuansheng is dissatisfied, he cannot easily contradict him.
But Xue is different. He Yuansheng doesn't have to tolerate a stupid woman.
Moreover, He Yuansheng had another idea in his mind, whether the in-laws in the second wife had a brainwash. With the relationship between the two parties, how could he spend a huge amount of money to help He Zheng make a future?
"you!"
These words made Xue choke and couldn't speak.
As soon as Xue spoke, Shi knew that something was wrong. While annoying this pig teammate, he also wanted to help with the aftermath.
"Your second uncle's family alone cannot afford so much money. This time it is a rare opportunity. You can't waste it easily. Even if the two houses separate, you can't just leave it alone.
So my grandmother and your father decided to sell some land, some things that you don’t need, and make up more money.”
"Father agrees?"
He Yuansheng immediately looked at He Jing, thinking to himself, no wonder Jia looked like his parents had died, with resentment on his face.
The economic situation of Yongning Hou Mansion has always been bad, and there is no input, so land is the top priority.
If he sells some land, the Marquis' Mansion will have even fewer investments in the future. As the hostess, it would be strange if he is willing.
"After all, it's a big deal!"
Although there is no positive answer, it is obvious that it agrees with this matter.
But there was no feeling in He Jing's tone, which made people know how reluctant he was.
"As long as the elder brother has no objection, Yuan Sheng has no objection!"
He Yuansheng immediately stated that after all, he sold the property of a large house, and his nominal legitimate son had the right to speak.
I just don’t know what He Yuanlang would think when he heard this news.
What Shi Shi wanted was not this, because when selling the land, he could force He Jing to do so, and He Yuansheng would not be able to express his opinion.
"Selling some things in the mansion can make up about 50,000 taels, but half of them are missing. Yuan Sheng needs to pay it back first. When the mansion is well-off, I will give it back to you!"
After simply speaking out his purpose, Shi looked directly at He Yuansheng with a bit of expectation in his eyes.
"Grandmother, grandson has not started a family and a career, and his only salary is not much. What can I pay for this 50,000 taels!"
He Yuansheng was stunned and responded in a cold tone.
Even though he guessed Shi's plan, he didn't expect that the other party would have such a big appetite and simply regarded He Yuansheng as an ATM.
"How come your piaoxiangju Ri has no money!"
Before Shi could speak, Xue started to scream, looking very angry, as if He Yuansheng had done something unforgivable.
And these words also changed Shi's expression and knew it was terrible.
As Shi thought, He Yuansheng's disdainful voice came: "I said that if I don't have money, I don't have money, let alone the second wife's business. You can't force a nephew from the next room to pay for it!"
The matter of Piaoxiangju cannot be concealed at all because it is so famous that it makes money every day, causing a lot of trouble.
Therefore, as the master, He Yuansheng made several attempts, so that those with ulterior motives would not dare to continue to reach out.
In this way, the people of the Yongning Marquis' Mansion also knew that He Yuansheng had such a profitable industry, so he made up his mind.
"It's really a heartless thing. For such a big thing, I've just stood by and watched. The mansion has raised you for so many years!"
Xue cursed hatefully, as if the owner of the Hou Mansion was her.
"It seems that the master of the Hou Mansion is not the second uncle!"
As soon as He Yuansheng said the words, the atmosphere suddenly became cold, especially He Jing, whose face looked as if the bottom of the pot was ashes.
"Say less!"
Shi was helpless and then said to He Yuansheng: "Grandmother said this money was borrowed temporarily. When your second uncle is well-off, he will definitely pay it back to you!"
With a disdainful smile, He Yuansheng thought to himself, "Why should you borrow money or not?" The money was in the hands of the second house. If he could get it out, he would see the ghost."
"The grandson has no money!"
The word "no money" also blocked Shi's mouth, which made her helpless, and could only use the last method: "Since Yuan Sheng has no money, it's fine, and the mansion will find another way."
Then he changed the subject and said: "A few days ago, Mrs. Xining visited the mansion and fell in love with our Ru Xuan. She wanted to propose marriage for her legitimate son. I originally wanted to agree to this marriage, but now it seems that I can only make another choice!"
He Yuansheng's face changed and he spoke coldly: "My grandmother promised her grandson before that she would choose a good marriage for Ru Xuan!"
"There is no way. After all, a concubine's daughter is not as good as your second uncle's future!"
Shi had already guessed that He Yuansheng and his second wife were unwilling to pay the money, so he had already thought of a countermeasure.
But doing so will wipe out the only face and feelings of the grandparents and grandchildren, so she didn't want to do this unless she had to.
Now Xue has made the atmosphere stiff, and Shi attaches importance to his youngest son, so he can only use his last killer weapon.
"Grandmother turned against her word, Yuan Sheng has long seen it!"
The ironic words made Shi very embarrassed. After all, it was indeed embarrassing to have an ancestor who used such methods.
If it weren't for his beloved young son, Shi wouldn't have done this anyway.
"A junior, so disrespectful to elders, can you say that you will go back on your word!"
Xue spoke again, and only this stupid woman would be so shameless.
Even He Zheng didn't dare to speak even though he didn't say anything.
"Grandma will agree to this marriage. After Xining Bo Mansion is hired, 50,000 taels of silver will be delivered to you!"
He Yuansheng compromised because Xining Bo Mansion is really a good family.
The current Xining Bo has only one legitimate son, named Chen Yan.
This person is considered an outstanding figure among the noble children and has no bad deeds.
The only difference is that Xining Bo Mansion, which is also somewhat defeated, and the situation is no better than Yongning Hou Mansion.
It is estimated that the other party intends to get married because of He Yuansheng's sake, otherwise He Ruxuan, a concubine, would not be able to marry such a family.
"Tomorrow, grandmother will ask someone to reply to Mrs. Xiningbo!"
Seeing He Yuansheng relax, Shi was relieved, otherwise she really didn't know how to get the 50,000 taels of silver.
He Zheng, who was standing aside, also revealed joy and thought to himself that he would finally say goodbye to white-heartedly...
After returning to the West Crossing Courtyard, He Yuan threw a cup angrily. He never dreamed that today, he would be threatened by an old lady.
What is particularly important is that he cannot compromise, because He Ruxuan still has some status in his heart. It would be a pity to miss a good marriage for some money.
"Why are my brother angry?"
The sound in the room alarmed Aunt Liu and her daughter, and they immediately came over to see the situation.
"Nothing happens!"
Although He Ruxuan was a little scheming, she couldn't help, and she didn't need to know some things.
Thinking that the marriage was indeed good, He Yuansheng reminded him: "Prepare well. Maybe in recent days, Mrs. Xiningbo will come to the mansion to propose marriage!"
As soon as he finished speaking, He Ruxuan's face turned red and she asked in a squint manner: "But Brother Chen Yan?"
After saying that, he covered his face with his hands, which was very embarrassing.
This sentence also surprised He Yuansheng and thought to himself that there seemed to be some situation.
"Sister knows Chen Yan?"
