Chapter 202 How can I live? [5-star praise with words, additional chapter 3! ]
Campbell looked dazed, and he still couldn't believe that the person who took his money was gone.
"Changed person? Where's the silver? Where's my silver?" Xiao Kang rushed towards Campbell again like crazy.
"It's gone, all the money is gone, sister, we have lost all the money." Campbell burst into tears.
His good days had barely lasted a few days when his beautiful dream was shattered.
Gone……
All the money is gone...
Xiao Kang's ears kept echoing with Campbell's words. She thought about how she had been extremely excited waiting to receive dividends these past two days, but in the end she didn't get any dividends at all, and she couldn't even get back the money she had invested.
"Oh my God! How can I live..." Xiaokang burst into tears instantly.
That’s eighty thousand taels, a full eighty thousand taels!
She spent all her money, but ended up not earning a penny back!
"Give me back my money, you heartless bastard! Give me back my silver!" Xiao Kang was beating Campbell, leaving several bloody marks on his face with his sharp nails, and his slaps made loud clapping sounds.
Kang Baili endured a few blows with great pain, but seeing that Xiao Kang was about to beat him to death again, he quickly raised his hand to block it, saying:
"You asked me to pay you back, what can I give you? I've already lost my money."
"I don't care. There was Li Han's dowry money in it, and now it's all gone. What do you want me to do?" Xiao Kang burst into tears.
Su Lihan also started to cry. The dowry money that Xiaokang mentioned was the dowry her mother gave her. Although her husband paid the bulk of her dowry, the part given by her mother was also very important.
Now that she has lost it, she will be so embarrassed when she gets married.
Campbell was upset by the crying. He was not a good-tempered person to begin with, and he had been spoiled by his family. Now he was also angry.
"The fifth girl is the daughter of the Marquis's Mansion. Her dowry will naturally be provided by the Marquis's Mansion. Why are you worrying about this? Anyway, we both have no money now, so there is no point in asking me."
Campbell pushed Xiaokang away, thought about it, and felt extremely unwilling.
"I still have to look for them. Maybe they felt that place was unsafe and moved to another place to continue."
He strode out, but Xiaokang would not let him go and stopped him immediately.
"No, if you leave, what will happen to the money?"
"I'm going to look for silver now. If you don't believe me, come with me." Campbell said directly.
The more he thought about it, the more he felt that it was more likely that those people had changed places. After all, lending money at high interest rates was strictly prohibited by the imperial court. If someone discovered this, it would be very dangerous.
Yes, that must be the case. They moved to another place and didn’t have time to inform me.
Campbell felt much calmer. He felt that as long as he went to a few more places selling mutton, he would be able to find these people.
He had only taken out 100,000 taels, and he had seen others take out 300,000 or 500,000 taels. Those who could take out such a large sum of money were all from wealthy and noble families in the capital city.
Those who lend money at high interest rates would never dare to offend them, so the most likely possibility is that they will change places.
"I'll go with you, come on, let's go now."
Xiaokang was concerned about his money and didn't care about anything else. He kept urging Campbell to go out.
Su Lihan watched the two people leave in a hurry, and there was nothing she could do. She could only cry anxiously and cursed Campbell over and over again in her heart.
When Xiaokang was in a hurry to go out, she happened to meet Aunt Xu who had just returned from buying blood bird's nest.
Nowadays, the expenses of the Marquis' Mansion have been reduced. If the old lady wants to eat something good, she has to spend her own money to buy it outside.
Nanny Xu had originally planned to greet Xiaokang, but Xiaokang walked away so quickly, as if she hadn't seen her, and left directly with Campbell.
It’s strange, why do these two siblings look so anxious? Could it be that their mother, Old Madam Kang, is dead?
Nanny Xu returned to Rong'an Hall with doubts, sent the newly bought supplements to the small kitchen, and asked the cook to stew a pot of food before going to see Old Kang.
"Madam, I just saw the Second Madam and the young uncle of the Kang family hurried out. They both looked very anxious. Do you think something happened to the Second Madam's family?" Madam Xu told what she had seen.
Old Kang was dozing with his eyes closed. When he heard these words, he opened his eyelids and frowned.
"Send someone to the Kang family to ask what happened."
"Hey! I'll go right away."
Nanny Xu went to the outer room and arranged for someone to go to the Kang family to inquire about the situation.
In Prince Yi's mansion, Su Qingwan understood what the messenger said.
Cornberry finally discovered the money was gone, later than she expected.
Afterwards, Su Qingwan said goodbye to the people from the palace, and quickly returned to the Chengping Marquis' Mansion with his people. When she arrived at the door, she met the servant who was sent by Old Kang to the Kang family to inquire about the situation.
Su Qingwan saw him walking in in a hurry and asked directly: "Why are you in such a hurry? What happened?"
"Miss Fourth, I am in a hurry to report back to the old lady." The man replied.
"Go!" Su Qingwan let him go.
He also walked towards Rong'an Hall.
In Rong'an Hall, after hearing what the man said, Mrs. Kang knew that nothing was wrong with the Kang family, so she naturally breathed a sigh of relief.
"The two siblings of the Kang family are already old, but they are still so impetuous." Old Mrs. Kang said dissatisfiedly.
Nanny Xu stood aside and didn't respond.
"Madam, the fourth young lady is here and said she has something urgent to report to you." The old woman guarding the gate came in and reported.
Old Mrs. Kang didn't want to see Su Qingwan, but after thinking about it, he let her in.
She is the old lady of the Marquis's Mansion. How could she be afraid of a granddaughter?
After a while, Su Qingwan walked in quickly. Her face looked unhappy and she looked very anxious.
When old Mrs. Kang saw her like this, she was instantly happy!
Could it be that something happened to that old bitch couple in Prince Yi’s mansion?
Humph! It would be better if they died!
"Fourth girl, what's wrong with you? Why do you look so unhappy?" Old Mrs. Kang asked with false concern.
Su Qingwan saw her pretending to be kind, and a chill flashed across her eyes. She was afraid that after Old Kang heard what she said, he would not be so relaxed.
"Grandma Kang, I went to the palace today. Did you know about this?" Su Qingwan asked.
When Mrs. Kang heard her mention the palace, she thought to herself: Could it be that I guessed it right? Something has happened to the old couple in the palace? Are they sick or dead?
"You usually never tell me where you're going, but why are you here to tell me about something this time? Did something happen at the palace? If something did happen, we are relatives to them after all, so we will help where we can."
Old Kang calmed himself down and asked in a pretentious manner.
Su Qingwan felt sick after hearing these words and couldn't help but sneer in her heart.
Old Mrs. Kang still wants to help the palace. It's almost like she's trying to trick a ghost. I'm afraid she hopes that everyone in the palace will get into trouble!
"It's not the palace that's in trouble, it's my second aunt that's in trouble!"
