Chapter 174 Liu Erlang's Marriage
After a night's rest, Qin Yiran felt much better. Early the next morning, Liu Yingyue arranged for him to have breakfast, check out of the room, leave the county town and return to the village.

When they arrived at the gate of Qinjiazhuang, Liu Yingyue saw Liu Dalang getting off the donkey cart and talking to Changfu, the gatekeeper.

"She hasn't come back after four days?" Liu Dalang said anxiously, "I'll go to the county town to look for her."

"Brother, there's no need to look for it. Isn't that Madam Ying's carriage? Madam Ying must be in the carriage." Changfu said, pointing at the carriage.

Liu Dalang turned around and asked, "Little sister, why did you come back just now?"

Liu Dalang's expression relaxed and a slight smile appeared on his face.

Liu Yingyue waved at him, "Why are you here today, brother?"

"It's urgent. Get off the car and I'll tell you." Liu Dalang walked towards the carriage with big strides.

He left in such a hurry, could it be that someone was asking for money? Liu Yingyue nodded to Qin Yiran in the car, "My eldest brother is here."

"No matter how urgent the matter is, you have to go inside and talk about it. Why would you talk about it outside the manor?" Qin Yiran also lifted the curtain and greeted Liu Dalang, "Brother."

"You're here too, um..." Liu Dalang scratched his head, "I want to talk to Yingyue about something."

"It's cold outside, let's go to the farm and have some hot wine first." Qin Yiran instructed Changfu, "Tell the kitchen to warm up some wine and food and bring it to my yard."

"Yes, young master." Changfu found a farmhand to pass on the message to the kitchen. He pushed open the door of the farm and led everyone into the farm to park the horses.

Liu Dalang wanted to talk to Liu Yingyue alone, but Qin Yiran kept asking him to chat, and he became so anxious that he spoke incoherently.

Just when he was getting anxious, Madam Qin came. She waved to Liu Dalang and pulled Qin Dalang aside to ask about things.

She was not good at handling the farm affairs, such as buying and selling daily necessities, and she had no control over them. She also needed to prepare Qin Xiuzhu's dowry and hire a cook to prepare a banquet, but Liu Yingyue and Qin Yiran were away for a few days, so there was no one to give her advice, and she was so busy that she was at a loss.

She breathed a sigh of relief when her son came back.

Liu Dalang also felt relieved. He quickly pulled Liu Yingyue aside and whispered, "You are finally back. Please return the silver to your family. We are almost driven to death. Someone is blocking our house and won't leave."

"Didn't you say you would pay it back after the New Year? Why are you here all here?" Liu Yingyue had five thousand silver coins in her hand and was not afraid of the debt collector at all.

Liu Dalang was extremely anxious. "I don't know who leaked the news that your business was losing money. No one bought the cotton clothes you bought. All the goods you bought went down the drain. Those who borrowed money from our family came to collect the debt. Two thousand taels, where can we get so much money to pay you back? Little sister, I beg you, you can borrow it or ask Qin Dalang for it, anyway, you must pay back the two thousand taels of silver today."

Liu Yingyue understood in her heart that someone was jealous of her Liu family's prosperity.

The Liu family cares about face. Apart from the fact that the original owner caused trouble for the Liu family and made them unable to hold their heads up in the village, now she has not fallen out with Qin Yiran, and the Liu family has not been bullied by others and has always been proud.

But now that someone is asking for debt repayment, of course I am anxious and panicked.

"Brother, don't panic. I will go home with you later." Liu Yingyue said, holding Liu Dalang's hand.

Liu Dalang was still anxious and said, "You must go back and pay back the debts you owe."

"Of course, don't worry, big brother. We haven't been home for a few days. There are some things to arrange in the village first. I will go back with you after that."

"Okay, okay, I'll wait for you." Liu Dalang breathed a sigh of relief.

Qin Yiran glanced at the Liu brothers and sisters, asked nothing, and then looked away.
