Chapter 365 Loneliness
Master Zhao Er suddenly trembled when he heard Liu'er's whereabouts.
She was so excited that she wanted to ask the old lady about Liu'er's specific situation, but she heard Qin Zhen say: "She has nothing to do with the second master for a long time. When she left the capital, she told me that she would never come back, so I will Raise Yu'er as your own son."
"Just pretend you haven't heard anything about her. You have to be tight-lipped in front of the Second Master and don't say a word."
Qin Zhen's voice brought him back to reality. Mr. Zhao Er calmed down instantly. He could not go to Qin Zhen. This vicious woman didn't want him to know Liu'er's whereabouts at all. She was afraid that it would endanger her status, and she was also afraid that the son she had raised would not recognize her as his mother.
Mr. Zhao Er's heart became hot and he wished he could get a pair of wings and fly to Yunping County to find Liu'er!
He turned around and walked out of the yard, planning to call Zhao Yu to go find his sweetheart together. He suddenly realized that he was short of money and came to Qin Zhen to ask for money.
Mr. Zhao Er came back again, his footsteps became heavier, alerting the master and servant under the flower window that someone was coming.
Sure enough, this time, before he reached the door of the house, Qin Zhen walked out, and the old woman followed her.
Mr. Zhao Er's eyes turned to Qin Zhen's face. Seeing that this woman was very calm, he snorted in his heart. She was very scheming!
"I want to renovate the house and make it look more luxurious. When the time comes, I can ask a matchmaker to propose marriage to Yu'er, so it won't look too shabby." Mr. Zhao Er took one look at the simple house, with disgust in his eyes: "We Even though we are separated, in the end we are the same as the Zhao family, and we cannot let our status be dishonored."
"What the second master said is that you should hire someone to renovate it." Mrs. Zhao second wife lowered her eyebrows and agreed to whatever he said.
Mr. Zhao Er felt relieved and raised his chin slightly: "You give me five thousand taels first. Zhao Rong said that it will cost so much money to renovate."
Mrs. Zhao Er was surprised: "Second Master, I don't have so much money."
"How is that possible?!" Mr. Zhao Er shouted in a loud voice: "Don't you have five thousand taels of silver notes in your dowry at the bottom of the box? There are also a lot of expensive jewelry and real estate. These are also worth a lot of money, right?"
Mrs. Zhao Er's face was a little unnatural. She twisted the handkerchief in her hand, stared at the tips of her shoes, and said, "I used to learn how to lend money at interest. I first took out ten taels of silver and let it out, but it didn't last for ten days." In a matter of seconds, I got back fifteen taels of silver, which was more valuable than the real estate I had. The second time I was bolder, I put in a hundred taels, and I got two hundred taels of silver in a month. The third time, I used all the cash in my hand. When I let it out, the other party only gave me interest and did not return the principal.
Not long after that, he told me that he had a problem with his business turnover and that all the money had been hijacked. He asked me to invest some more money in him. If I refused to invest, the business would not be successful and the money I lent him before would not be repaid. The amount was too huge, and I really couldn’t bear to part with it, and because I had indeed received interest from him, I was swayed by the lard and snared the shop, property, and jewelry all in. In the end, I couldn’t find him anymore, so I told my mother-in-law to help find him. Man, only then did he discover that his household registration was fake and there was no such person! "
"You paid it all in?" Mr. Zhao Er's face turned red and he pointed at Qin Zhen with trembling hands: "Are you pretending to be confused? Don't you know to tell me?"
Mrs. Zhao Er's expression changed and she gave him a faint look: "Second Master, I want to ask you for help. You got the news about Miss Liu'er and left the capital to find her."
Mr. Zhao Er was at a loss for words, and all the depression was in his chest, which made him panic.
Not giving up, he asked in a low voice: "How many more do you have in your hand?"
"Fifty taels of silver."
Mr. Zhao Er took a deep breath and suppressed his anger: "Give it all to me."
Mrs. Zhao Er ordered the old woman to get it.
The old woman hesitated to speak, and finally went to get the money.
Master Zhao Er took the money and hurriedly found Zhao Yu without even looking at Mrs. Zhao Er. The two of them went to Yunping County together.
Mrs. Zhao Er looked at his leaving back calmly, curled her lips, and told the old woman behind her: "Pack your bags, let's go back to Qin's house."
——
Zhao Mansion.
Tang Nuan and Zhao Wei returned to the courtyard together, feeling very depressed. In this huge mansion, Mrs. Zhao loved her the most and took care of her the most.
Now that she has left suddenly, there is no one in this house who has a close relationship with her.
Tang Nuan felt empty in his heart, and a sense of loneliness came over him.
She suddenly remembered the wooden box Mrs. Zhao Er gave her, left Zhao Wei and went into the inner room to take out the box.
