âMother, we canât give the money to her!â Min Jia pulled on Madam Shengâs sleeve and gritted her teeth. âWe wonât give her money! Why should she get so much money? Sheâs not worthy!â
âYes, sheâs not worthy!â
Madam Sheng was so agitated by the amount of one hundred thousand taels that she threw away all the pride she had held on to for so long.
She spat at Su Han, turned around, and waved her hand to have someone carry Min Jia into the car.
âMiss!â
Zhifen quickly wiped Su Hanâs face and said in disgust, âYouâre just a noble madam. How can you behave so shamelessly?!â
They were better off as maids!
Su Yingxue patted Su Hanâs shoulder lightly. âDonât worry, sister. Even if itâs just a little bit of filth, Iâll make them pay back tenfold or even a hundredfold!â
Since they dared to spit on Su Han, they were prepared to pay a terrible price for it.
Su Yingxue asked someone to carry Su Han back to the medicine hut and settle her down. Then, she waved her hand and summoned a Shadow Guard, giving him a task.
On the way home, the carriage of the Regional Princeâs Mansion tripped on something and everyone in the carriage fell out. Half of the carriage was smashed into pieces.
In the carriage, besides the Old Regional Prince who was in good condition, both Madam Sheng and Min Jia were injured, especially Min Jia who had already broken her leg. When the court physician arrived, she cried and made a scene for a long time until midnight.
In Madam Shengâs room, she was crying her eyes out. âSon, itâs not that I donât want to apologize. Itâs just that Su Han is too heartless. Not only does she want her dowry back, but she also wants us to give her 100,000 taels of silver! This is a hundred thousand taels of silver!â
Chu Xiaotianâs brows were tightly knitted. He had never expected such a situation.
It wasnât a big deal for Su Han to get her dowry back. She could just take out all the money she had spent on the Regional Princeâs Mansion and return it to her.
However, this hundred thousand taels of silverâ¦
The Old Regional Prince held the account book in his hand. He was in charge of the account book after Su Hanâs accident.
He wouldnât know if he didnât look, but he was shocked when he saw it!
The expenditure of this residence was such a huge sum. n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om
Moreover, Madam Sheng and Min Jia spent the most. Min Jia would ask Su Han for money every month, and she would take a large sum of money. In recent years, she had taken out hundreds of thousands of taels of silver intermittently!
Chu Xiaotian flipped through the account book and frowned. âWhat did Min Jia do with so much money? Mother, have you interrogated her properly? Sheâs a girl. Other than clothes and jewelry, what else can she do to spend so much money?â
âThis⦠She was the county lord and had to deal with all kinds of noble ladies in Jiang Du City. For the sake of face and reputation, how could you let her lose face? If she lost face, wouldnât our Regional Princeâs Mansion lose face as well? Whatâs wrong with using some money!â Madam Sheng had always defended her daughter without thinking. Even in such a situation, she was no exception.
âAre you stupid?â The Old Regional Prince pointed at Madam Shengâs head and chided her. âHow can she squander so much money?!â
Chu Xiaotian took a deep breath. Su Han had told him that Min Jiaâs expenses were too high, and sometimes she couldnât afford it, so she had to use her familyâs dowry as compensation.
At that time, he thought that Min Jia was a child and did not know how much money she had. It was not a big deal to waste some money. Anyway, the Regional Princeâs Mansion would not be able to afford it.
But now, he realized that there was a huge problem with Min Jia!
âMother, where did Min Jia spend her money? And who does she usually interact with? Now, tell me everything you know!â Chu Xiaotian was extremely suspicious..
