Chapter 108: Become famous
Marquis Anyang's attitude made everyone around him look at each other in bewilderment.
Did Marquis Anyang admit it?
In other words, does he really have that kind of relationship with Su Yunxia?
"Back then..." Anyang Hou was about to explain, but Qiao Jinlan didn't give him a chance, "It's enough for the Marquis to recognize that you are a family."
"Then pay back the money." Qiao Jinlan took out the IOU directly and said with a smile, "Qiao Jiaojiao just received a reward from His Majesty, she must be rich."
Qiao Jiaojiao's face turned green.
Is this why Qiao Jinlan came here?
She wants to give away the gold she just got before she even has time to warm it up?
"Sister, you have made great contributions. You have just been praised by His Majesty. How can you deny it?" Qiao Jinlan looked at Qiao Jiaojiao with a smile.
Only then did Qiao Jiaojiao understand why Qiao Jinlan had praised her so highly.
This is putting her in a position where she can't back down unless she agrees!
When Qiao Jinlan saw that Qiao Jiaojiao didn't move, she stretched out her hand and reminded her, "Sister?"
Qiao Jiaojiao gritted her teeth and didn't want to give it.
"How could a great contributor like your sister possibly deny her debt? Oh, no, it's not you who is denying the debt, it's your father-in-law." Qiao Jinlan corrected herself.
"You really don't need to pay your father-in-law back for your bounty. Well...this matter still needs your family to discuss slowly."
"I still!" Qiao Jiaojiao said these two words with a dark face.
What if you don’t pay it back now?
If she didn't return it, wouldn't it make Marquis Anyang lose face and make her appear selfish? In that case, how would Marquis Anyang look at her?
How will she stay in the Marquis' Mansion in the future?
Not to mention, if she doesn't pay back the money, she doesn't know how people outside will slander her.
"Hey, my sister is so generous!" Qiao Jinlan gave Qiao Jiaojiao a thumbs up, and her praise was so sincere.
Qiao Jiaojiao was so angry that she wanted to vomit blood. She didn't want such praise at all.
When she thought about how she was feeling complacent because of Qiao Jinlan's flattery just now, she wanted to slap herself.
How could she be so stupid that she didn't see Qiao Jinlan's sinister intentions?
No, it’s not that she is stupid, it’s that Qiao Jinlan is too insidious!
"Come on, everyone is here, help to be a witness." Qiao Jinlan directly took out the IOU and reconciled the account with Qiao Jiaojiao.
Then, Qiao Jiaojiao watched helplessly as the gold she had just earned was taken away and replaced with the light IOU in her hand.
It was as if her heart had been dug out.
"Our accounts are settled now." Qiao Jinlan said with a smile, but her face suddenly darkened. "However, Lord Marquis, while my mother was working hard for the Marquis's mansion, you had a pair of children outside... Lord Marquis, you are really capable!"
Qiao Jinlan's words made everyone look at Anyang Hou and others with meaningful eyes.
Anyang Hou quickly explained: "Things..."
"Your Majesty, you don't need to explain to me what happened. My mother has a clear conscience. Your Majesty, you know whether you have a clear conscience or not!" After Qiao Jinlan finished speaking, she turned and left without giving Marquis Anyang a chance to explain.
joke.
She came here to collect the debt.
Marquis Anyang wanted to explain, that was his business, why should she cooperate with him?
Even if Su Yunxia was carried into the house in a sedan chair carried by eight men, the fact that they had an affair without a matchmaker was an indelible fact!
"Everyone go in!" When Marquis Anyang saw Qiao Jinlan leaving, he said this in a bad mood, turned around and walked back quickly.
He was really out of his mind. Why did he go out to meet Qiao Jiaojiao?
Qiao Jiaojiao is Lu Liangyi’s wife, and Lu Liangyi’s identity... The more Anyang Hou thought about it, the more uncomfortable he felt, and his scalp went numb.
Now, the people of the capital had something to talk about again.
Qiao Jinlan returned home and asked the accountant to deposit the gold into the warehouse. Then she returned to her own yard and had a drink of water.
I talked a lot and I feel thirsty.
"Qiao Jiaojiao is going to be so pissed this time." Lu Yunyu laughed so hard that she fell backwards. "Her face was so ugly... I was afraid that she would turn hostile on the spot and deny the deal and refuse to give us the money."
She and her eldest brother hid aside and watched secretly. Her eldest brother and his wife said that it was not appropriate for the two of them to be present at that occasion.
Hiding aside, she was watching with great enjoyment!
"Qiao Jiaojiao thought that the sister-in-law went to flatter her, but she didn't expect that the gold she just got was gone in the blink of an eye!" Lu Yunyu became more and more happy as he spoke, "When the gold was moved away, her eyes were glued to the box!"
"We're just getting started," Qiao Jinlan said lightly.
"Originally, Lu Liangyi's concubine was only famous in the capital. Now that Qiao Jiaojiao has made a great contribution, her identity, Lu Liangyi's background, and the fact that Marquis Anyang used his wife's dowry to support his concubine are now known not only in the capital."
Lu Yunyu was stunned: "Sister-in-law, you mean..."
"Your Majesty posted the imperial edict, and all the nearby prefectures and cities knew about it. With such a large reward, who wouldn't pay attention to it?" Qiao Jinlan raised her eyebrows and smiled, "Do you think people in other prefectures and cities will ask who solved the chess game?"
"Then, can Lu Liangyi's identity and what Anyang Hou did be kept secret?"
Lu Yunyu was so surprised that his mouth opened slightly.
Lu Yunxu snorted proudly: "Your sister-in-law can also solve the chess game. But, your sister-in-law didn't go to reveal the winner."
"Doesn't Qiao Jiaojiao want to be in the limelight? Then let them be in the limelight and become famous! But what's the point of letting the people in the capital know what they have done?"
"It must be spread throughout the whole of Dazhen."
Lu Yunyu looked at Qiao Jinlan with starry eyes: "Sister-in-law, you are so awesome."
Qiao Jinlan was amused: "It's not that great or not, I just don't like being bullied."
"I'll go tell Mom!" Lu Yunyu cheered and ran to tell her mother excitedly.
Of course I have to share such a happy thing with my mother.
"You're so unstable." Lu Yunxu snorted in disdain.
Qiao Jinlan raised the corners of her lips slightly. These two siblings always bicker with each other, but they have a good relationship.
"It's a done deal that Marquis Anyang is going to marry Su Yunxia," Qiao Jinlan said, "and it should be a grand ceremony soon."
"He always has to clarify that Su Yunxia doesn't have a husband."
After all, keeping a mistress and having an affair with a married woman are two different things.
It is not acceptable to keep a mistress, and then to mix her with a married woman will make people despise her even more!
“Even if I explain it clearly, it can’t erase the fact that he is sorry to my mother by keeping a mistress!” Lu Yunxu just looked down on his so-called father.
"Take your time, there's no rush. If there is anything, everything will be settled after the imperial examination next year." Qiao Jinlan chuckled.
At that time, Lu Liangyi could be completely crushed to death.
As long as Lu Liangyi couldn't turn over, she would feel relieved.
Lu Yunxu nodded: "I will make them regret it!"
Isn’t Marquis Anyang partial to Su Yunxia and her son?
He wanted to let Marquis Anyang see that the choice he made was extremely wrong.
Lu Liangyi, whom Anyang Hou values the most, is nothing, and he... will get better and better. Anyang Hou can only watch them go higher and higher and become an existence that is out of his reach.
And their glory has nothing to do with Marquis Anyang!
