Juan Wang's Little Lady: Nongmen hunters work hard to plow the fields

Chapter 8

"Account period?"

"Exactly." Su Lian was choked by the snack, picked up the tea on the table to drink, and said slowly, "The monthly household in this mansion is ten taels of silver. Ten taels a month, and three months With 30 taels, does mother think it’s the same thing?”

Mrs. Li hesitated and said, "Could it be...not?"

"Of course not. There is a huge difference between the two." Su Lian put down the tea bowl in her hand and smiled, "She spent five taels of silver in the first month, ten taels in the second month, and ten taels in the third. The monthly expenditure is 15 taels, adding up to a total of 30 taels in three months. The silver taels that should have been given to the grain store in the first month were owed on credit until the second month, so mother didn’t ask why?”

Mrs. Li only knew that the total amount of money was the same, but she didn't expect this level.

"Why exactly?" Mrs. Li asked, looking at her confident daughter.

"Because she didn't have ten taels of silver to pay in the first month." Su Lian said with a smile, "She must have taken the household that her father gave her to put interest money outside, and the payback period for the interest money is three months. So every third month she can make up the shortfall."

"Giving interest money?! Su Qinming clearly ordered the family not to lend usury, otherwise they will be kicked out of the house! Is Lian'er sure?" Mrs. Li finally caught Aunt Zhao's handle and was very excited.Su Qin was very famous for despising businessmen, and never allowed his family members to get involved in things like lending money, lest he would ruin his reputation as a scholar.

"Naturally, my daughter is fully confident. No matter how much you whitewash this account book, it will eventually show your flaws." Su Lian said lightly, "Auntie just said that since her daughter's accident, Aunt Zhao has been in charge of the family for a year. During this period, she It must be that Su Qinming used the monthly savings for her family to make fixed investment, that is, regular quantitative investment. According to a reasonable interest rate, there should be [-] to [-]% of the income now. If she dared to use the savings at home to lend interest , the greater the principal, the greater the return.”

"Lian'er is so smart! Why didn't you think of this level! Finally, we caught the fox's tail of this bastard!" Li grabbed Su Lian's hand and said, "Lian'er, let's go to your father right now. File a complaint in front of me, take off this bitch's painted skin, and ask your father to drive her out of the house!"

"Mother is so kind." Su Lian patted Li Shi's hand.

"Could it be that Lian'er wants to watch that bitch ride on my mother's head and continue to dominate?!" Li said angrily.

Su Lian persuaded: "Aunt, if you can't bear it, you will make a big conspiracy! Aunt knows how much interest money Aunt Zhao gave? Who did you give it to? How much profit? Where will it be used?"

"This……"

"About Zhao Auntie's giving interest, Lian'er is sure, but has no proof. If we rashly report it to Dad at this time, will Dad believe us? Then Zhao Wanzhen won't beat her up and say that we slandered her? Dad hates his daughter, naturally Everything my daughter says is wrong, so how can he believe her words?"

Mrs. Li was silent.After a long time, she clapped the case and said: "It's all because mother is useless! I can't control my husband and son-in-law, and I can't protect my precious daughter!"

After saying that, Li Shi lowered her head and began to cry again.

Su Lian thought, this ancient mansion is like a woman's prison, if she doesn't get the favor of the prison boss, that is, her husband, the woman will never have a bright future, and she can't escape even if she wants to.With compassion in her heart, she lightly stroked Li Shi's head, comforting her: "Mother, don't cry, daughter has her own way to get Daddy to drive Zhao Wanzhen out of the house."

Mrs. Li was stunned, raised her tearful eyes and looked at Su Lian: "Lian'er won't allow mother to complain, what else can I do?"

"People's hearts make things up." Su Lian said, looking straight into Li Shi's eyes.

"What does Lian Er mean?"

"Lian'er will find a way to set up a game. If Zhao Wanzhen is honest and selfless, she will naturally not get into the game. If she has selfish intentions, she will definitely get into the game. At that time, let Su Qinming personally drive her out."

Li stared blankly at her daughter, not knowing when she became so scheming.

Su Lian didn't want Li Shi to know too much, one was worried that she would be suspicious of herself, the other was worried that the plan would be leaked, and the third was that she had the kindness of a woman, so she smiled lightly: "Mother, don't worry, Lian'er will do it herself." It’s a success. It’s just that I still need my mother’s help.”

"What do you need to do for your mother, Lian'er will tell you what to do."

"Mother, please find out on your behalf, who did Zhao Wanzhen give the interest money to? What is the interest rate? When will it expire?"

"Okay! I'll investigate these." Mrs. Li obediently agreed.

Above the front hall, Zhang Jianshan paid his respects to his father-in-law.Su Qinming ordered someone to show him a seat and invite him for tea, but he didn't look at him at all.

There was still pain in Chen Dingchuan's right wrist, he sat down facing Zhang Jianshan, and seeing the calm look on the other side, he was even more angry.

At the age of 12, Chen Dingchuan joined Su Qin's famous family to study. At that time, Su Lian was only nine years old, and he already had a small appearance that I still feel pity for.She and her older sister, Su Yue, who hadn't reached Ji, often sat behind the curtain in the school and listened to lectures together.From then on, Chen Dingchuan liked to peek at this cute little girl, but Su Qinming thought that he liked Su Yue.

When Chen Dingchuan reached the age to discuss marriage, the teacher instructed him to marry his eldest daughter.Chen Dingchuan didn't like this concubine at first, but he was born in an ordinary family, and his teacher's orders were hard to disobey, so he had to obediently obey them.

After marrying Su Yue, Chen Dingchuan and his classmate Qi Rui passed the examination of scholar.Bursting with self-confidence, he began to have the dream of marrying Su Lian in as a flat wife.Helplessly, Su Lian never looked him in the eye, and even avoided him in fear.After repeated harassment, Su Lian even threatened to sue her father.Later, when Chen Dingchuan heard from his mother-in-law, Aunt Zhao, that Su Lian actually favored Qi Rui, love turned to hatred.Aunt Zhao's poisonous plan was also carried out by Chen Dingchuan himself.He just wants to watch this self-proclaimed noble woman fall into the quagmire and be reviled by thousands of people. Anyway, no one can get the woman he can't get!
Seeing Su Lian again in front of the Su Mansion today, Chen Dingchuan unexpectedly became interested in her again.When he saw Su Lian standing on the steps with a woman's hairstyle, the timidity in his eyes was gone, and he smiled at Yan Yan, his hunter husband, as if he was a different person.Thinking that she would rather commit herself to a hunter, but hate herself, Chen Dingchuan gritted his teeth with hatred.

Chen Dingchuan glanced at Zhang Jianshan, who was sitting opposite him calmly drinking tea, and spat in his heart: A vulgar hunter, what kind of son is he!
"Sister Lian'er got married that day. It was a day of great joy. I didn't expect that Sister Lian'er couldn't think about it for a while. Actually, although the previous incident was a scandal, it was a family scandal after all. Sister Lian'er's jump caused a lot of trouble. Everyone in the city knows that our Su family is really disgraced!" Chen Dingchuan said sarcastically, ignoring his wife's winks to tell him not to mention it.

"When did the scholar change his surname to Su, but I don't know." Zhang Jianshan said calmly while drinking tea with his head down.
