Chapter 519 - 519 Shameless
Suddenly, Zhou Ying remembered that Yang Shicheng still had a stack of silver left in his manor. It would likely not be transported back to the residence for a while.
Then…
Zhou Ying would gladly accept it.
She would find another suitable opportunity to deal a fatal blow to Yang Shicheng.
She followed the address on the letter, found ten silver boxes, and kept them away.
At the same time, before she left, she realized that this manor was used as a breeding farm. There were not only chickens, ducks, geese, and other poultry, but also cattle, sheep, pigs, and other livestock.
There were quite a number of them.
She glanced at the surroundings, and as expected, there were three breeding farms, each bigger than the other.
She even saw the unique pheasant she had given them as Mother Goddess back then.
She had to find someone to ask around and see if she could buy a similar manor. It’s so that she can maximize the profits of her restaurant in the future.
On the other end, Yang Wanning went straight to the old madam to report her safety after returning to the residence. She then turned around and walked out.
“Stop right there.” Madam Cui, who was lying on the soft couch, immediately sat up and shouted coldly.
“Does Grandmother have any other instructions?” Although Yang Wanning was a little impatient, she still stopped and turned her head to ask.
“Did you know that your father fainted from anxiety?”
“I heard about it when 1 entered the residence. 1 was just about to go over and take a look.”
Madam Cui snorted. “Such a major incident happened in the residence. Why did you go out so early in the morning?”
“I went to look for my cousin-in-law. 1 heard that Chenglin sent someone back to the residence to request food expenses yesterday.
“However, since that happened in our residence this morning, I had to borrow money for emergencies.”
Upon hearing that, Madam Cui glanced at her and asked, “How much did you borrow?”
“Not much; only about 20 taels. But as long as Chenglin uses it sparingly, it should be enough for a month.
“A month later, the shop would generate profits, and Chenglin would no longer have to worry about his food expenses.”
“20 taels of silver, that little?”
After hearing that, Yang Wanning’s eyes flashed a hint of sarcasm. Over the past few months, the Yang family hadn’t even given her allowance of io taels of silver on time, and this old coot still had the cheek to say that 20 taels of silver were little.
Besides, she had never heard of them giving any money whenever the Cui family came to eat.
Yang Wanning deliberately answered with a worried look, “You should know the situation of the Gu family. After entering the capital, they have spent a lot of money on many things. I am already grateful that they can lend me 20 taels of silver to tide over the difficulties.”
Madam Cui looked up at her thoughtfully. Why did she feel that Yang Wanning was acting differently today?
She answered her every sentence, not giving in at all.
Was she on the same side as the Gu family, or was she doing it purposefully?
However, no matter the situation, it was not good for the Yang family. It seemed that she had to give Yang Wanning a lesson.
“Don’t forget; your surname is Yang, not Gu. In the future, your greatest reliance will still be the Yang family.”
“Yes, then you should rest, Grandmother. I have to send food to Chenglin later.”
“Wait, io taels of silver a month is already enough for him to eat. Give me the rest. The residence doesn’t have a single copper coin now.”
Yang Wanning secretly cursed her for being shameless. This was her emergency silver.
She answered, “No, you also know that Chenglin is used to spending money extravagantly. I’m afraid that he…”
“What’s wrong with the boy suffering a little? Besides, he’s not young anymore. It’s time for him to understand. No matter what happens, we’ll set a monthly food allowance of io taels of silver for him in the future.”
“Fine. Here.” Yang Wanning quickly counted out ten taels of silver and put them into her purse. She handed the rest to the old madam..
