Chapter 619: Not Paying Back
Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
Qiao Xuan used fresh and tender, soaked pea shoots, and stir-fried them on a plate. The fresh green color, fresh and tender taste made people never want to stop eating them.
Ms. Fang was gratified and happy seeing the table full of dishes.
Ms. Fang actually suspected that she had misheard the news when Ms. Xu decided to offer money from her own pocket.
After all, she was Ms. Xu’s mother-in-law and she had seen through her long ago.
Ms. Fang was feeling very emotional about the days that became better and better. Those bad and small tricks were all gone.
Not everyone was as annoying and ungrateful as the second and third section of the family.
Ms. Fang would agree if she knew the basic principle of the modern world money could solve 80% of the troubles in life.
But she knew that she needed to support her son and daughter-in-law to keep making money so that life could get better and better. Also, it was all Qiao Xuan’s luck that helped.
At the Qiao Mansion.
On the day when Qiao Xuan and Shao Yunduan left, Officer Qiao could not wait but hired someone to deliver the letter written by Shao Yunduan directly to the province.
He ordered that the letter had to arrive in Yuezheng Xiao’s hands on the following day.
According to Officer Qiao’s plan, Yuezheng Xiao should agree to his proposal.
After all, it was always better to have some professionals to manage the land and fields for him!
As long as Yuezheng Xiao agreed to it, Officer Qiao would wait for a few days and then go over to meet Yuezheng Xiao, so that he could coax Yuezheng Xiao and borrow 30,000 liang from him.
Officer Qiao would give the money for the position he needed, and when he was back in the capital, he would start to earn enough money.
It was not going to be easy to make 30,000 liang within a short while, but he did not think that the Yuezheng Family would need this amount anyways.
So, he never planned to pay back the money.
By that time, the Yuezheng Family would not really bother to go to the capital to get the money back.
Besides, if he got promoted and soon won a high-ranked position, he would return the Yuezheng Family a favor in the end. Officer Qiao had everything ‘arranged’ in his head.
He was very confident.
Yuezheng Xiao had just received the regular lipsticks and limited versions of lipsticks from Qiao Xuan. He was selling them out slowly. Five sets of limited versions had been sold out, and five more families had already reserved the three minor sets, which made him feel really happy.
The remaining five sets would arrive very soon.
But Yuezheng Xiao got very confused seeing the letter sent by Shao Yunduan.
He was sure that it was written by Shao Yunduan, which made him feel even more confused.
He ordered someone to bring over the messenger and after a few questions, he understood what was going on.
Wearing no expression on his face, Yuezheng Xiao ordered the messenger to take a break. And then, he smiled sinisterly.
He saw through the situation quickly. Officer Qiao needed money desperately!
He was trying to suck up to him urgently because he needed nothing else but money, maybe lots of it!
But he would not give out money so easily.
Instead of answering the letter, he thought for a while and called over a trusted servant. He appointed him to be the manager for the land at the Zhang Village.
Shao Yunduan could not do anything to his father-in-law. Then, he would deal away with him for his friend’s sake.
He did not need Shao Yunduan to ‘be in charge of’ the tea fields. He had a suitable manager who could do that for him and he was going to send that man there.
That manager would not travel with the messenger. He ordered Qu Shan to send the messenger home first..
