Chapter 298 Choose 2 from 1
"Don't worry about me. I have brought this upon myself. I shouldn't have come to the Marquis' Mansion. This is too terrible. They treat human life as worthless! Not only did they harm me, but they also harmed you. It's all mother's fault. You should pack up and leave now. From now on, just treat your father as dead. You have nothing to do with the Marquis' Mansion!"
Lu Shian almost cried when he heard this: "Mom, what are you talking about? If you want to leave, let's leave together. Whoever wants to stay in this broken place can stay!"
Lu Xianchun continued, "Yes, let's go. We won't stay in this mansion anymore!"
"What do you think the Marquis' Mansion is? You can come and go as you please?" The wife of Marquis Yongkang glanced coldly at the three of them, mother and daughter!
She didn't like this mother and daughter. If her son hadn't begged her again and again with soft words, how could she have agreed to let them move in!
Now that they have made such a fuss, it won’t be easy for them to leave!
Lu Shian was not in a good mood either: "Madam Yongkang is so arrogant, what if we have to leave today?"
"Then go ahead and give it a try and see if you can walk today!"
"Then I will really give it a try. If you can impress us mother and daughter today, I will let everyone in Anjing City know your name, the wife of Yongkang Marquis, tomorrow!"
Madam Yongkang narrowed her eyes slightly. She really wanted to kill him at this moment. "You dare to threaten me?"
"You'll know if it's a threat if you try it!"
"What have you worked so hard for? You know in your heart without me telling you why the young marquis has not been given a position of importance, and why my father has been able to get a position of office?"
"Nothing is certain yet. Do you think that without us, mother and daughter, the eldest son of the Yongkang Marquis's mansion will be free of stains? What do you think your opponents will do? What do you think the emperor will do?"
She slowly raised her head and looked at the wife of Yongkang Marquis, and said word by word: "What will the Queen Mother do?"
The wife of Marquis Yongkang looked at Lu Shian in disbelief. How could this girl know all this?
Lu Shian could clearly see the shock in the eyes of the wife of the Marquis of Yongkang. She asked again, "Do you like the food that mother sends you every day?"
The wife of the Marquis of Yongkang was shocked: "You poisoned me!"
"Haha, I'm not like you, I don't want to do that!"
"How dare you! If you keep saying such nonsense, I will never let you off!"
Lu Shian was not afraid of what she said: "The Queen Mother also likes those dishes."
The wife of the Marquis of Yongkang was alarmed: "How did you know?"
"Is this hard to guess? Of course the Queen Mother also likes the food I cook!"
"You are talking nonsense, Lu Shian, oh Lu Shian, I really underestimated you. You dare to tell such a lie? Who do you think the empress dowager is? How can a country girl like you meet her just like that?"
"If you don't believe me, don't blame me!"
The wife of Marquis Yongkang stared at Lu Shian closely, trying to see through her!
Seeing that Lady Yongkang was really intimidated by Lu Shian, Lu Xianchun walked over and supported Yu Xiuying: "Mom, let's go, this is not a place for country people like us!"
"Wait!"
The wife of the Marquis of Yongkang added, "You said so much just to save me from this beating!"
"Of course, this beating is not unavoidable. Yu broke many of my valuable vases. As long as she compensates me at the original price, I will not hold you responsible!"
"On the contrary, if she can't compensate, she will definitely get beaten!"
"I call you grandma, but my mother is your daughter-in-law. If she accidentally breaks something, does she need to pay for it? Or is the mansion out of money? They want to deduct it from us!"
Lu Xianchun looked aggrieved, and judging from his appearance, he seemed to be penniless!
The wife of the Marquis of Yongkang was furious: "Did she break it accidentally? Do you know how many of my things she broke?"
Yu Xiuying glanced at her two daughters guiltily. Before going there, she kept telling herself to be patient, but once she got there, she lost control. She couldn't understand how a person could be so cruel. There were more than ten lives at stake!
The anger in my heart is like a firecracker. Once it is ignited, it will explode without reservation!
So she herself didn't know what she smashed, she just knew that she felt very happy after smashing those things!
Lu Shian's eyes dodged: "Just tell me how much silver it is first!"
Seeing that she was guilty, the wife of Marquis Yongkang was extremely proud!
Even if the country folks know how to grow crops, how much money can they earn! Oh, by the way, they also have a shop in Wanning Prefecture, which seems to sell food. I wonder if they can make a profit of ten taels a month!
"Don't accuse me of bullying you. Take the three thousand taels and pretend that what happened today never happened!"
When Yu Xiuying heard the price of three thousand taels, she was not happy: "How dare you ask for three thousand taels for a few broken vases!"
Madam Li: "Broken vase, do you know that you broke the mistress's favorite vase? That vase alone costs two thousand taels!"
Lu Xianchun stood up without saying a word and walked towards the dining room of the wife of Marquis Yongkang!
When she reached the door, she was stunned. It was a mess inside!
The decorative vases that occupied an entire wall in the dining room that the wife of Marquis Yongkang had placed on were all knocked down and smashed, along with the shelves!
She originally wanted to see the so-called vase worth two thousand taels, but when she saw the scene before her, she suddenly felt that its authenticity was not so important!
When Lady Yongkang Hou saw Lu Xianchun coming back, she said coldly, "What do you think? Do you want the silver or the beating? Choose one!"
Lu Xianchun came up to Lu Shian and whispered, "Pay the money!"
After she said that, Lu Shian naturally knew what was going on: "We just pay the money and they'll let us go?"
"As long as you pay me three thousand taels, I'll let you go!"
Lu Shian breathed a sigh of relief: "I don't have much more, only three thousand taels, but I still have some!"
Hearing Lu Shian say this, the smile of the wife of Yongkang Marquis froze: "I want you to take your silver, but it is not given to you by my son!"
Lu Shian laughed: "Your son doesn't do business, so where would he get the money to give us? What can he do with his salary and the money the Marquis's Mansion gives him every month?"
The wife of Marquis Yongkang had an ugly look on her face, as disgusting as if she had eaten a fly!
"You said you had three thousand taels?"
How is this possible? Three thousand taels is not a small amount. How could they possibly afford it?
"I want it now!"
She didn't believe they had three thousand taels!
Lu Shian smiled: "You won't go back on your word, right?"
"As long as you can produce it now, I will let you go immediately!"
Lu Shian took out banknotes from the space under the cover of the bag on his body!
"One hundred taels..."
"Two hundred taels..."
"Three hundred taels..."
As more banknotes were taken out, the role of the wife of Marquis Yongkang became more and more embarrassing.
When he took out the 29th card, Lu Shian had someone rummaging in his bag!
"Huh? I remember there was three thousand taels?"
"Why can't I find it?"
She started to take out small change from it. There was a lot of small change, but not a single banknote!
There wasn't much change, just a few taels at most. Seeing that Lu Shi'an couldn't come up with the last hundred taels, the wife of Marquis Yongkang laughed!
"I said three thousand taels, not a cent less!"
