Daughter of aristocratic family

Chapter 113 Borrowing Money
  When Mrs. Zhao heard this, she was so angry that she almost fainted. She never thought that the son she had high hopes for would go to a gambling house to gamble, and she still owed twenty thousand taels of silver.

Zhao He also knew that he had caused a big trouble, so he lowered his head and did not dare to look at his mother.

"My family really can't come up with so much money now. Can you give me a few days' grace so that I can raise some money?" Mrs. Zhao knew that the thugs in the gambling house were unreasonable, but she asked her to come up with twenty thousand taels of silver. She was a little reluctant to give up.

The leading gambling thug sneered: "Grace? We don't have the time. If your Zhao family can't come up with the money, don't blame us for being rude."

"Can you give half of it first?" Mrs. Zhao really couldn't afford 20,000 taels of silver at once. Who would put 20,000 taels of silver at home?

"Okay, but I have to remind you, after nine days out and thirteen days back, if you can't pay the other ten thousand taels of silver after three days, then you will make a profit." said the gambling gangster.

After hearing that she would be given an extension of three days, Mrs. Zhao quickly asked the housekeeper to go to the account to get 10,000 taels of silver, and handed it over to the gangsters in the gambling shop.

The gambling thug took the money and left.

Mrs. Zhao glared at Zhao He, "This unlucky guy is really pissing me off. Get out of here."

The people at the door gradually dispersed, and Hong Chang left quickly.

When she went back and told Mrs. Zhao Cui and Zhao Wangshu about this, Mrs. Zhao Cui said calmly: "Isn't making money just for your children? With tens of thousands of taels of silver, the big house can afford it."

Zhao Wangshu raised his eyebrows, her grandma understood intersex people.

She never thought that this matter would involve her family. The next day, Mrs. Zhao came to the door in person and asked Mrs. Zhao Cui to borrow money.

"That evildoer in my family lost tens of thousands of taels of silver in a gambling house, which prompted the gambling house's thugs to come to us to demand debts. Since our family can't afford that much money, we asked Aunt Seven to help us borrow some money for emergencies."

Mrs. Zhao Cui didn't believe a word of this and glanced at her lightly, "Brother Kuang and wife, we are not as big as your family. We are just a small family and we don't have that much money to lend you."

Mrs. Zhao was bluntly rejected by her, her face turned red and white, but she still said unwillingly: "Seventh Aunt, if this gambling debt is not repaid for one day, those thugs will come to the house to cause trouble all day long. There is really no place to hide, so I am so generous." I am begging you shamelessly, I know you are a kind-hearted person and will not leave me alone."

Mrs. Zhao Cui still said the same thing, "Brother Kuang and my wife, it's not that I don't want to borrow it, but I really don't have the money to borrow it. You'd better borrow it elsewhere."

"Seventh Aunt, I know you are tight on money, but there is nothing you can do now. Otherwise, can I mortgage the land deed to you?" Mrs. Zhao asked deliberately. .

"This is impossible. The land deed is the foundation. Without the land deed, how will you live in the future?" Zhao Cui quickly refused. She did not want to be accused of persecuting her clan members.

"Seventh Aunt, I don't want to mortgage the land deed, but there is really no other way. The people in the gambling shop said that if they can't get the money together tomorrow, they will break He'er's legs." Mrs. Zhao said while wiping her tears.

"I don't want the land deed, and I won't lend you money." Mrs. Zhao Cui refused. She knew that Mrs. Zhao just looked pitiful and had better calculations than anyone else.

If you borrow this money, you will be in trouble in the future.

"Seventh Aunt, please be kind and lend us some money to meet our emergency needs. When we get through this difficulty, I will thank you." Mrs. Zhao saw that she was out of luck, and she couldn't help it, and her tone became unkind. .

"Brother Kuang and my wife, please don't embarrass me." Mrs. Zhao Cui made up her mind not to borrow money.

"Seventh Aunt, please help us. I know you are well-off, so for the sake of past friendship, just give us a hand." Mrs. Zhao begged.

"The friendship in the past?" Mrs. Zhao Cui couldn't help laughing, "The friendship in the past was to let the gangsters block my children and grandchildren in an attempt to destroy them. The friendship in the past was on our way back to the village. Let people rob and kill us?"

"Aunt Seven, what are you talking about? Why can't I understand?" Mrs. Zhao said with evasive eyes.

Mrs. Zhao Cui sneered, "Then I'll tell you what you understand. I won't lend you the money. Please take it back."

Mrs. Zhao knew that she couldn't borrow the money, so she could only leave in despair. That afternoon, Mrs. Zhao sent someone to send a 10,000-tael silver note to the gambling house and got back the IOU written by Zhao He.

Zhao He was severely beaten by Zhao Kuang and stayed at home to recover from his injuries.

On April 16, Zhao Yuzhen got married, which was another farce.

Qian Suan was still drunk, and his wife was worried that he would fall off his horse, so she asked him to sit in a sedan chair to welcome the bride.

It's not impossible to go to the bride's house in a sedan chair, but two sedan chairs will cause everyone to misunderstand, "The prince of Tianhe Prefecture, are you marrying two wives at once?"

This is of course impossible. Even the emperor cannot marry two wives at one time.

When Qian Suan entered the new house to pick up Zhao Yuzhen, he burped and said, "Madam, my husband is here to pick you up."

Zhao Yuzhen was led into the wedding hall by him. In the wedding hall, Zhao Kuang and Mrs. Zhao were sitting in the upright seats, while Zhao Yuzhen's biological parents were sitting in the side seats.

Zhao Kuang and Mrs. Zhao robbed other people's daughters, and they did so openly and without any guilt.

"Farewell parents." the master of ceremonies said loudly.

Zhao Yuzhen and Qian Sui knelt in front of Zhao Kuang and Mrs. Zhao. Zhao Yuzhen was married as Zhao Kuang's adopted daughter.

Her mother, Mrs. Ma, was wiping tears at the side.

"Father, mother, when your daughter gets married, you cannot fulfill your filial piety on your knees. Please take care of yourself." Zhao Yuzhen seemed to be saying to Zhao Kuang and Mrs. Zhao. In fact, her kneeling was not straight and crooked. She said this to her biological father and mother.

"Good daughter, when you marry into the uncle's house, you must remember your husband's words, be filial to your parents-in-law, and be friendly to your uncles and aunts." Mrs. Zhao took Zhao Yuzhen's hand and made a loving gesture.

"My daughter has remembered it," Zhao Yuzhen replied.

Zhao Yuzhen was supported by Xi Niang and her maid, followed Qian Suan, left the mansion, got on the sedan chair, and went to Tianhe Bo's Mansion.

The wedding process went smoothly, and after Qian Suan had finished entertaining the guests, he walked into the new house drunk.

Looking at Zhao Yuzhen sitting on the wedding bed, he actually said: "Who is this ugly monster? Why are you here?"

These words caused the beautiful young women to snicker, and a charming young woman leaned on Qian Suan and said, "My lord, this is your wife."

Zhao Yuzhen smiled faintly and said, "Ms. sir, you are drunk." He stepped forward to support Qian Suan and said, "Get out."

"Hey, young madam, she started showing off her authority as soon as she entered the door." The enchanting young woman mocked.

"I am the wife of the Crown Prince, who is married to a matchmaker. I want to sell a girl who is a married woman. I think it's okay." Zhao Yuzhen said with a sneer.

Qian Suan had not yet married, and for the sake of reputation, the women around him were all girls from the same house, not concubines.

The young women turned pale and said, "We won't disturb the prince entering the bridal chamber." They left one after another.

Zhao Yuzhen helped Qian Suan to the wedding bed, called the maid to bring water, and helped Qian Suan wash up.
