Chapter 551: Happiness Gives Birth to Sorrow
However, Wei Qingwan couldn't stimulate Wei Ruo at all, and the pregnancy was not important to Wei Ruo.
Wei Ruo looked at Wei Qingwan surrounded by everyone with an expression of watching the play.
She neither needs to rely on having children to compete for favor, nor does she need to rely on having children to prove her worth.
She knows that in the world she lives in, women often have mothers and children more expensive, but in Wei Ruo's understanding, children are born with the people they love when they are all ready, whether they give birth or not, there is nothing to criticize and nothing to be proud of.
Because of the knowledge that Wei Qingwan was most likely pregnant, and this was King Yu's first child, Wei Qingwan became the object of everyone's attention and protection for a while.
Wei Qingwan's face was filled with happiness, and she enjoyed everyone's care for her at this moment.
At this time, someone from the Wei Mansion came to report that someone from a Huiren shop outside sent an IOU, which was a note that the concubine of King Yu had borrowed 1,000 taels.
Hearing this, Wei Mingting and Chu Heng's faces were surprised, and they looked at Wei Qingwan together.
Wei Qingwan was still immersed in happiness just now, and the next moment, her face stiffened.
An IOU of one thousand taels!
Of course Wei Qingwan remembered that she signed one!
Yun frowned and turned her face away, this matter has always been a pain in her heart, and the scene of her daughter's disobedience to her at that time is still vivid.
Wei Ruo raised her eyebrows, a little surprised, she knew about this IOU, but this IOU was signed to the Bai family.
Wei Ruo was curious about how this IOU got to Huiren's shop?
She has been opening a shop in the capital for some time, and she has also heard of this Huiren shop, Sun Sanniang told her not to provoke this Huiren shop easily, because behind the scenes of Huiren's shop is Jinglan Marquis's Mansion.
There is an essential difference between whether the person who asks for the debt today is the Bai family or the Huiren shop.
Wei Ruo looked at Wei Qingwan again, her face had changed from shyness to iron, I don't know if this is considered happiness and sadness?
Wei Mingting was silent for a moment, and then asked his subordinate to hand over the IOU.
He took it in his hand and looked at it carefully, it showed Wei Qingwan's name written in black and white, and his handprint was pressed on it.
And Wei Qingwan's reaction also shows that this thing is true.
Looking at his wife's reaction, I think she already knew about this IOU.
Wei Mingting's eyes sank, and he asked the person who came to report: "Did the person who sent this IOU say?" ”
The key IOU was given directly, if the Wei family tore up the IOU now, it could be regarded as no such thing, and it would be useless for the other party to sue again.
"The other party didn't say anything, just asked the villain to hand over the IOU to the master."
Huiren did not ask for money and returned the IOU directly.
Wei Mingting's hand holding the IOU tightened.
Wei Mingting turned his head to look at Wei Qingwan, if his daughter was not married, he could inquire about it at this moment, but now that she is married, it is not his turn to discipline her, not to mention that she is still the concubine of King Yu, and his identity does not allow him to do discipline.
Wei Mingting said coldly: "This incident happened before you got married, and it was my father's fault, and this thousand taels of silver will be paid back for you by my father." ”
The other party did not ask the Wei family to give money, but Wei Mingting could not act as if nothing happened and did not repay the debt.
Wei Qingwan was so nervous that she didn't dare to look directly into Wei Mingting's eyes, and her hands were even more overwhelmed.
Chu Heng hurriedly said to Wei Mingting: "Father-in-law, Wanwan is already a member of my Yuwang Mansion, this thousand taels should naturally be paid by my Yuwang Mansion, how can I bother my father-in-law to break the bank." ”
One thousand taels was not a big deal for the Yuwang Mansion, and Chu Heng was naturally willing to pay this money in exchange for the Wei family's favor towards him.
Wei Mingting said: "It's okay for the minister to discipline him, but to teach the little girl badly, this matter is the responsibility of the minister, and you can't bother His Royal Highness King Yu." ”
At this time, Wei Yichen, who had been silent, spoke: "Father, you don't have to blame yourself, my mother has repeatedly dissuaded this matter, and it was the second sister who insisted on doing so." The second sister's idea has always been big, even if you were there at the time, you may not be able to stop her. ”
Wei Yichen's words seemed to persuade Wei Mingting, but they secretly revealed their family's attitude towards Wei Qingwan and Wei Qingwan's performance at home before she got married.
How could Wei Qingwan not hear it? When she heard this, she felt a chill rise from the soles of her feet, and her stomach turned over again, but this time when she vomited again, everyone just looked at her and did not immediately express concern.
Wei Qingwan looked at Chu Heng nervously, Chu Heng's face did not have too much expression, he still looked modest.
Immediately afterwards, Wei Yichen got up and clenched his fists and said to Chu Heng: "Your Highness, today's matter is the fault of my Wei family, and this money is owed by my second sister before marriage, even if I don't want to admit that the person who did such a clumsy act is the girl of my Wei family and my sister, this is still the responsibility of my Wei family, and it should be returned by my Wei family." ”
Wei Ruo stared at Wei Yichen on the right, savoring his words.
These words sounded like an apology to Chu Heng, but they faintly revealed the information that he had a bad relationship with Wei Qingwan, and it was difficult for Wei Ruo not to suspect that this was Wei Yichen's deliberate doing.
"Uncle don't be polite, we are a family, and the affairs of the Wei family are also the affairs of this king, not to mention the affairs of Wanwan." Chu Heng replied.
The two were polite, and in the end, Wei Mingting didn't care what Chu Heng said, he directly asked people to take the silver ticket, and directly handed it over to the people from Huiren's shop to take it.
###
On the way from the hall to An Xinyuan, Wei Ruo found a gap to talk to Wei Yichen alone.
She stepped forward and asked Wei Yichen: "Is this IOU today arranged by the eldest brother?" ”
Wei Ruo felt that today's matter didn't seem like something that the Bai clan could think of.
She gave the IOU to Huiren's shop and asked Huiren's shop to ask for money.
Huiren shop is very smart, he will not directly ask for money to offend the Wei family and Yuwang Mansion, he chose to send the IOU back very politely.
And with Wei Mingting's character, it is impossible to just accept the IOU and not repay the money.
In this way, the Bai family not only got the money, but also avoided the trouble of coming forward, killing two birds with one stone.
Wei Yichen said indifferently: "I just provided a way for the Bai family to get the money back, she couldn't directly ask for the money herself, so she chose eight hundred taels of silver to sell the IOU to the shop outside, and the shop came to the door to ask for money to get back one thousand taels, earning the difference of two hundred taels." ”
"I want to come to Huiren's shop because of the eldest brother's face to be willing to take over this business, right?" Wei Ruodao.
"Huiren's shop is in business, and they only need to make two hundred taels of silver for one trip, so there is no reason why they should not do this business." Wei Yichen did not answer directly.
"It seems that the second brother still hasn't been able to forgive Wei Qingwan." Wei Ruodao.
"Why should I forgive someone who almost killed me?" Wei Yichen asked rhetorically.
