Chapter 240: Dilemma Shifted to Master and Servants
That's right!
He suddenly changed his mind!
Now, no one, whether it’s me or Yin, should say anything to him: depose Leng Rongyue and let Leng Yixing replace Leng Rongyue and marry into Prince Yu’s Mansion!
Perhaps if Leng Rongyue married into Prince Yu's mansion in the future, it might not be of much benefit to her as a father;
But right now, Leng Yixing is of no use at all to the Marquis Qinxing's Mansion and to him, his father!
Although Leng Rongyue's name was not written on the emperor's imperial decree granting marriage.
However, even a fool would know which one the legitimate daughter of Marquis Qinxing mentioned in the imperial decree of marriage was referring to!
Behind Leng Rongyue is the Anguo Mansion!
And what about Leng Yixing's maternal family? It was the Yin family, a family of scoundrels and troublemakers!
Leng Rongyue's grandparents are the first-class duke and the first-rank lady!
Leng Yixing's grandmother is an old shrew who only knows how to throw tantrums and act like a scoundrel!
Leng Rongyue’s two uncles, one is the Minister of Justice and the other is the Vice Minister of War!
Leng Rongyue's two cousins, one was the first place in the imperial examination, and the other was the third place in the imperial examination! Now they each hold an official position;
And Leng Yixing’s cousin... hehe... is the scoundrel Yin Baoye who was crippled by someone... It’s disgusting just to think about it!
The Anguo Mansion behind Leng Rongyue gave his daughter Fu Baozhen a dowry that was enough for the Qinxing Marquis Mansion to enjoy wealth and glory for so many years!
And what about the Yin family?
The Yin family squandered all the capital of the Marquis Qinxing Mansion back then, and is still drinking the blood of the Marquis Qinxing Mansion to this day!
Furthermore, Leng Rongyue had the marriage arranged by the Emperor, which meant that behind her were the Emperor, the Empress and Prince Yu!
The Emperor, the Empress and Prince Yu, they are Leng Rongyue’s future parents-in-law and husband!
Would the emperor and empress watch their future daughter-in-law’s house being robbed and becoming penniless overnight?
Will they watch their future daughter-in-law suffer from poverty and lack of food and clothing?
will not!
Leng Rongyue is the eldest daughter of Marquis Qinxing.
As long as Leng Rongyue doesn't fall into despair, then his Marquis Qinxing's Mansion won't fall into despair!
As long as Leng Rongyue is the eldest daughter of Marquis Qinxing's Mansion, then if anything happens to Marquis Qinxing's Mansion, Leng Rongyue, the eldest daughter, must not stay out of it!
He would never allow her to stay out of it!
In the morning, he asked his servants to tell the shopkeepers and the onlookers in front of so many debt collectors that he had sent someone to pick up Leng Rongyue, the eldest daughter of the Marquis's Mansion. This was to capture Leng Rongyue and drag her into the current dilemma.
He wanted to shift the current dilemma onto Leng Rongyue and let Leng Rongyue face it.
Will the Duke of Anguo feel sad and reluctant to let it go?
Then take out the silver!
The emperor and the empress feel embarrassed and can't afford to lose face?
Then reward me with lots of gold, pearls and treasures!
Or, you can give the betrothal gift in advance!
Leng Rongyue doesn't want to be called unfilial?
Then hurry up and offer up the remaining shops and farms first!
But distant water cannot quench immediate thirst.
He Lengxian now had to deal with the lunch and dinner of dozens of people in the mansion;
And there are clothes for everyone to wear.
They all woke up lying on the ground in their underwear.
They had no new clothes.
It is late autumn now and I am only wearing a thin layer of underwear. It is so cold!
And I can't go out.
Especially for Leng Xian, it was not so important for him to have any more warm clothes to replace;
The important thing is...his official uniform and hat are all gone!
Leng Xian could only stay in Zhongshun's little room, lying on Zhongshun's bed, covered with Zhongshun's mattress and quilt, smelling the stinky feet...
At this point, it was smelly, but still warm;
It doesn't smell, but it's cold.
Leng Xian had no choice.
It's interesting to say.
If anyone were to go into the Marquis Qinxing's mansion at this time, he would definitely not be able to find a master!
Because they had no clothes, shoes or socks left!
But in this season, wearing a single silk dress is absolutely unbearable.
So, now they all put on the clothes of their maids, servants, and old women.
Just dress warmly first!
Leng Yixin cried and made a fuss at first, and was unwilling to wear a maid's clothes.
But later, she was so cold that she sneezed one after another...
There was no other way. Leng Yixin picked and chose among the several dresses brought by Qingye and Lvzhi. Finally, she picked a dress and put it on, and then picked a thick coat to put on outside.
Even though he was wearing someone else's clothes, he still had a look of disgust on his face.
Yin was wearing Madam Lu's clothes. The maids, Chuntao and Qiugui, were both thin and small, and their dresses could not fit her.
Although the dress is also made of silk, it belongs to a servant, no matter the color or style.
If someone who didn't know Yin saw her, they would definitely think that she was just a maid in the mansion, a maid who had just made a mistake, was punished, and was slapped hard in the face!
Nanny Ye, who was beside Old Yin, took out her own set of bedding and covered Old Yin with it.
But old Mrs. Yin suffered from incontinence, and soon the quilt and mattress were all dirty, and the room stunk!
Madam Ye originally wanted to find a doctor to give Old Lady Yin some acupuncture and medicine.
But on second thought, acupuncture and medication probably wouldn't have much effect.
What's more, the Marquis and his wife are helpless right now. They are even poorer than slaves like them!
The accounting office in the mansion was also empty.
If I hire a doctor again, I might have to pay for it myself.
It's hard to say when the master will return the money he has paid out.
So, Nanny Ye simply pretended to be stupid and stopped mentioning the matter of hiring a doctor for the old lady.
Let the quilt smell for now, it’s better than being cold!
