"Then is Su Junji not afraid that the Lord Qiansui will destroy the Su Family?" Cheng Mingxue was lying on the bed with a perplexed expression.
"Hmph, you can't even put it that way. The Lord Qiansui didn't marry her off in front of everyone, and furthermore, isn't the current empress dowager only a daughter of the Su Family? There's also a imperial concubine as well, they're all people of high status, can't even be trifled with by an eunuch?" Shen Lanxin did not believe that the Su Family would make a move personally, not to mention, they did not even kill Cheng Ya Yue.
"But even if we don't destroy the Su Clan, the Su Clan will still receive a certain amount of punishment!" Cheng Mingxue had heard too many rumors regarding Wei Shengxiao, so she still felt that Wei Shengxiao would not sit idly by.
"My silly daughter, why do you keep asking me this kind of question? In any case, Cheng Yeyue had angered the Su Clan, so it was only right for the Su Clan to get rid of her. If your family dies, then wouldn't your grandfather and your father be able to rightfully inherit the Marquis' and the Crown Prince's position? And this can be considered to have avenged you. " Shen Lanxin was not the manager mistress now, so she could not directly ask for the account office for money, much less return the money that Su Chunmei had urged her to.
She was extremely annoyed.
Her brother's business had been even worse than before, so she could only use her meagre savings to make up for it.
How could she still have money to pay the eighty thousand taels of silver? Even with her current food and clothing, she had no choice but to reduce them.
However, in the eyes of outsiders, her food and clothing were still extravagant, how could she be frugal?
Just on this point, Marquis Cheng didn't really like the descendants of Cheng Wenqing's generation. Of course, other than Cheng Xiuhuan, who worked as a university student at the Han Lin Academy, and his children, the others were all trash.
Therefore, if Cheng Guanyue was beaten to death by Su Junji, his entire family would be in trouble as well.
Then wouldn't they be the final winner?
At that time, she would be able to regain her authority as a housekeeper and become her own mistress.
He didn't need to pay the eighty thousand taels of silver. He could borrow as much silver as he wanted from the account office.
That's good.
"Mother, does that mean that Cheng Guanyue is really going to die?" There was no happiness in Cheng Mingxue's tone, nor was there worry. In short, she herself was very conflicted.
If Cheng Guanyue really did die, then his uncle's family would definitely die, and Gao Dazhi would be very sad because of this, and maybe he would be completely crushed.
How much better could the Cheng family be in this way?
Although she really hated Cheng Guanyue kicking her in front of so many people, and that Grandpa Gao was so fierce towards her, he wasn't as good to her as he was to Cheng Guanyue or Xiang Xiang.
However, when she thought back at the end of the day and carefully thought about that scene, an indescribable feeling arose in her heart.
He was afraid that the Cheng Family would become more and more scattered because of the absence of his great-grandfather.
Moreover, Granny Gao's health wasn't too good either. If Grandpa Gao fell down, perhaps Granny Gao would also feel sad and depressed!
After all, they had been husband and wife for decades. It was not like they didn't have any feelings for each other.
Moreover, it was Granny Gao who took the initiative to look for Grandfather Gao.
Then she must have had feelings for him.
"Have you ever seen someone offend the Su Family and still be able to live well?! So don't blame your mother for not giving you a chance to vent your anger. It's because I'm too weak, but this is good. With the Su family, I won't have to be afraid that Cheng Yeyue will play around in front of you. "
Shen Lanxin was very happy when she said those words, but when Cheng Mingxiang heard this, she did not feel happy at all.
"Mother, how can you say this about big sis? She didn't offend you, so who said big sis would die? She will definitely be very powerful and defeat those bad people." Cheng Mingxiang firmly believed that Cheng Guanyue would not lose, after all, she had witnessed the entire process of Guan Yue defeating that Gao Dahan.
This meant that Cheng Guanyue was really not as weak as her mother had imagined.
"Didn't I say, Xiang Xiang, what benefits did she give you? She wanted you to speak up for her. Did you not see how much I hated Cheng Guanyue and her family?" Shen Lanxin had always doted on her youngest daughter, so she only expressed her dissatisfaction towards Cheng Mingxiang and did not speak up to her loudly or scold or scold her.
"Mother, why do you hate little big sis and the others? And if you continue to talk about big sis like that, I'll ignore you. " Cheng Mingxiang didn't understand why her mother would suddenly become so mean. It was obvious that Little Sis and the others were good people, why did they have to curse her so much?
"Xiangxiang, did you learn to be a bad boy from Cheng Guanyue? You don't listen to me anymore." Mother told you that your aunt is almost in the money, and she has been urging me to ask for silver all day long. You said that your uncle's house is in urgent need of money, so I can't help them. Shen Lanxin knew that her youngest daughter Cheng Mingxiang had always been clever, so she didn't hide the truth from her and directly replied her with the most important point.
"Mother, but my food and clothing are the same as before. Or I'll sell my gold lock and a lot of other stuff for money and give it back to the office. Otherwise, when the higher-ups investigate it, our family will get into trouble. " Cheng Mingxiang had also heard Cheng Weiwu explain to her before, why would her aunt ask for money from her mother?
Moreover, she felt that paying back the debt was a matter of course, so she didn't think that her mother hated her aunt and the others because of this reason.
"Fragrance, where did you hear this from? When did His Majesty say he wanted the treasury to clear?" Anyways, when the higher-ups check it out, your uncle will definitely give us some silver so that we can pay it back. Shen Lanxin firmly believed that her big brother's business would become very hot.
Besides, she wasn't worried at all that her family would be implicated when the treasury was cleared.
After all, the sky was falling and they were on their own. Third Bro, Cheng Xiuhuan, would definitely not sit by and watch his family be sent to prison because of the eighty thousand silver.
Moreover, eighty thousand silver taels were just a small sum. As long as Ol 'Three paid them back, how could it be as serious as what they said?
"Mother, Grandmother said that Uncle is not a material for the business. Also, Uncle's family isn't that poor, right? "Why do I always have to take money from you, but never give you money of my own accord!" Ever since she could still remember, Cheng Mingxiang knew that her uncle would always send people to ask her mother for money, but he never took the initiative to pay back the money he had borrowed.
He felt like his uncle was a bottomless pit. No matter how much silver his mother threw down, he never vomited a single drop.
Sometimes she even went to visit her aunt's home. Her aunt was very cold, as if she didn't want them to stay at all, or to entertain them.
