Young Master, Don't Show Off - Chapter 160
[Chapter 160 Qin Wan Returns to Me]
Facing the creditors of his two sons, Earl Jian’an was a little flustered.
He couldn’t take out ten thousand taels of silver, let alone ten thousand taels, even one thousand taels or one hundred taels he couldn’t take out.
The things in the mansion that could be sold for money had long been sold by the two rebellious sons. The only thing that was valuable was this house.
But if the house was sold, where would they live?
He forced a smile to Lin Xiu and said, “I am the second-class Earl Jian’an of the current dynasty. This young man is handsome and elegant. I wonder which family he is from?”
Lin Xiu glanced at him and said, “Don’t ask. My father is a first-class Earl. You, a second-class Earl, can’t suppress me. Since ancient times, it is natural to repay debts. How are you going to repay the ten thousand taels today?”
Earl Jian’an’s face turned completely black.
Even Lady Jian’an, who always doted on her sons, glared at her two sons fiercely.
Ten thousand taels of silver, how dare they borrow it?
Lady Jian’an looked at Lin Xiu, suddenly straightened her chest, and said, “You said my son borrowed 10,000 taels from you, so my son borrowed 10,000 taels from you? Maybe you forged the IOU!”
Lin Xiu’s face showed the expression that a playboy should have, and she sneered, “Shrew, you are playing rogue with me, right? You may not know who I am. Lord Liu, what should I do if I don’t pay back my debts?”
Liu Qingfeng said, “If you don’t pay back the silver and deny it, after investigation, you will be beaten with thirty sticks and imprisoned for ten days. The government will sell the mansions and land under your name to pay off the debt…”
Qin Song saw Lin Xiu’s look and knew that this matter might have become a big deal. He immediately looked at Qin Wan on the side and said, “Wan’er, Wan’er, say something!”
Qin Wan said indifferently, “It was you who lent him the silver, and it was you who lost 10,000 taels in gambling. What’s the use of me talking?”
Qin Song said anxiously, “You live with him now. If you talk, he will definitely listen!”
“What?” Upon hearing this, Lady Jian’an seemed to have thought of something. She pointed a finger at Qin Wan and said angrily, “You little bitch, did you team up with outsiders to frame your own family? You are a traitor…”
“Shut up!”
Lin Xiu frowned at the noisy woman and said coldly, “To tell you the truth, this young master has taken a fancy to your daughter Qin Wan. I lent the silver to your son on purpose. If you can’t come up with 10,000 taels of silver today, you can use her to pay off the debt. Otherwise, this young master will use legal means to protect his legal rights and interests…”
Qin Song and Qin Bai were dumbfounded.
He actually had this idea from the beginning.
Isn’t this method something they often use?
When they used this to force the families of those good girls to submit, they never thought that one day, the same method would be used on themselves.
Qin Song pointed at Lin Xiu and said angrily, “Dad, Mom, it was him. He deliberately framed us. We only wanted to borrow a few hundred taels, but he insisted on lending us ten thousand taels. He was already planning to take advantage of my sister at that time!”
Lin Xiu smiled at them and said, “You only realized it now, it’s probably too late.”
Jian’an Bo was shaking with anger. He pointed at Lin Xiu and said angrily, “You are handsome, but how can you be so vicious? I am a nobleman after all, how dare you plot against the nobles of the dynasty…”
“The nobles of the dynasty, the nobles of the dynasty can owe money and not pay it back?” Lin Xiu smiled at him and said, “If you want to be reasonable, I will be reasonable with you. As long as you can pay back the money, you don’t have to use your daughter as collateral. Otherwise, you can sell the house. This house looks worth a lot of money…”
Jian’an Bo’s face was as dark as water. He would never sell the house, nor did he want to use his daughter as collateral.
As a declining noble, the Qin family’s old house can be said to be the last manifestation of the Qin family’s glory in the past. He would never sell it. If he sold the old house, where would their family live?
As for his daughter, he had other plans.
The Qin family had fallen into decline, and she was born to a concubine. Even the lowest-ranking nobles in the capital were unwilling to marry a concubine’s daughter of a second-class baron. However, if they could not marry her in an open way, but only take her as a concubine, there were still many people willing to do so.
With her beauty and ability, she would definitely be able to get a good price for the betrothal gift.
But plans are not as good as changes. The playboy in front of him had framed his two sons and directly brought people from the government. If he could not return his money today, he would not be able to pass the hurdle in front of him.
Earl Jian’an glanced at Lin Xiu and said, “Wait here for a while. I need to discuss this matter with my wife.”
After that, the couple walked into the inner house, and Qin Song and Qin Bai followed them in.
Qin Wan, who had been silent since just now, suddenly looked up at Lin Xiu and said seriously: “This is me…”
Lin Xiu glanced at her and said: “If you say this is your own business and I don’t care, I will leave now. It’s just 10,000 taels, just treat it as feeding the dog.”
Qin Wan’s lips moved, but she didn’t say anything. Finally, she lowered her head again and remained silent.
Lin Xiu usually treats everyone with a gentle and elegant appearance. This is the first time she has seen him so domineering.
This shows that he is serious.
Qin Wan knows very well that cynicism is just his surface. When he is serious, he is decisive and almost ruthless.
In the inner house of Qin’s mansion, Jian’an Bo slapped Qin Song and Qin Bai on the face twice, and said angrily: “Ten thousand taels, you really dare to borrow, look at how much trouble you have caused!”
The woman protected her son distressedly, and said to Jian’an Bo dissatisfiedly: “What’s the use of you saying this now, anyway, the silver is gone, you should think about how to send him away, I said in advance that this house can’t be sold!”
Jian’an Bo said angrily: “You mean, let me use Wan’er to pay off the debt?”
The woman snorted coldly and said: “What’s wrong with that? If he wants that little bitch, let her go with him, so that I don’t have to see her every day!”
Jian’an Bo didn’t say anything, he knew this was the only way.
That dandy not only has the right, but also the title and power, which are not comparable to him, a ruined nobleman. Even the Qingli Division is in collusion with him, how can he fight him?
If you want to blame, you can only blame these two unpromising sons.
Seeing these two unpromising sons, Jian’an Bo was furious.
If it weren’t for them, he would have planned to find a good husband for her this year. Now, all his plans have come to nothing.
A moment later, Jian’anbo’s family walked out of the inner house.
Lin Xiu sat on a stone bench in the yard, crossed her legs, swayed, glanced at Jian’anbo, and asked, “How is the discussion going?”
Jian’anbo glared at Lin Xiu. After a moment, he walked to Qin Wan and whispered, “Wan’er, you can see that the family really can’t come up with 10,000 taels…”
Qin Wan asked calmly, “So, you are planning to use me to pay off the debt?”
Jian’anbo showed a trace of guilt on his face, and said, “There is nothing I can do about it. You won’t suffer if you follow him. Dad is doing this for your own good…”
Qin Wan sneered, “Should I thank you?”
Jian’anbo said with a gloomy face, “You I gave birth to her, shouldn’t she listen to me? “
Qin Wan sneered and said, “I was born after ten months of pregnancy by my mother. She used her own life to exchange for my life. As for you, you just shivered when you were excited. I would rather you had never given birth to me. “
Jian An Bo said angrily, “Rebellious girl, what are you talking about!”
Lin Xiu looked at Jian An Bo and said unhappily, “Pay attention to your tone of voice. She will be mine soon. Be careful when talking to my people. If you scold her again, she will be less than one thousand taels. If you have silver to pay me back, you can do whatever you want.”
Jian An Bo’s face flushed, and he swallowed back the words he was about to curse.
At this time, Qin Wan’s face showed a trace of self-mockery, and said, “The price of a pretty maid outside is only ten or eight taels. What virtue and ability do I, Qin Wan, have to be worth ten thousand taels of silver?”
Jian An Bo’s wife cursed in her heart, this little bitch, others are self-raising, how can she do this, lowering her own price, what if that dandy thinks it through and doesn’t agree to let her pay off the debt?
Of course, she didn’t dare to say this, because she was worried that the playboy would keep his word. If he only let her pay 9,000 taels, the remaining 1,000 taels would not be available to the Qin family.
To Lin Xiu, this kind of beauty could not be measured by silver. In the eyes of those who are greedy for money, she might not be worth 10,000 taels, but in the eyes of those who are lustful, she is a priceless treasure. Seeing that
Jian’an Bo seemed to have made a decision, Lin Xiu stood up and said, “Since you agree, let’s sign a document. Qin Song and Qin Bai owe me 10,000 taels of silver. Jian’an Bo is unable to repay the debt, so he will use his daughter Qin Wan to pay it off. From now on, we will not owe each other anything… I will give you the IOU, and Qin Wan will be mine. Is that ok?”
