The daughter of the first wife is a black lotus, reborn and remarried to kill

Like to eat paper? After hearing these words, Li Xi couldn't help but laughed out loud.

Li Zhengkang was so angry that he stepped forward and grabbed Liu's shoulders, "What do you want to say? Say it quickly!"

Liu stammered, "It's not Ah Qian's fault. It was me who released Yu Luo's indenture and allowed her to return home."

Seeing her mother suddenly change her tune, Li Shuyue was a little anxious, "Mother, what are you talking about? Is there something wrong with this paper? Li Qingqian, what did you show mother?"

Li Qingqian shrugged. "It seems that my sister is very curious about what is on the paper. Mother, how about I go get another copy?"

"No!" Liu refused immediately, her attitude changed drastically, she grabbed Li Shuyue's arm and said, "Your sister is a very good housekeeper. You are so old now, how can you still compete with your sister in everything like you did when you were a child? Hurry up and apologize to Qingqian."

Li Shuyue found it ridiculous, "Mother, what are you talking about? You want me to apologize to Li Qingqian?"

Li Xi's eyes were cold. "Mother has already said that she released Yu Luo's indenture and allowed her to return home. Does this not prove that you have wronged Ah Qian? What about apologizing to her? Or do you disagree with what mother said?"

Li Shuyue stiffened her neck and said stubbornly: "What about Yunshuang? If Yunshuang is not in the house, Li Qingqian still can't explain it!"

"That's easy. Yunshuang is from my grandmother's courtyard. It's easy to find her," Li Qingqian looked at Liu, "I'll look for her together with my mother."

"No!" Liu's eyes were in panic. It would be better if Yunshuang was not in the mansion. If she returned, what if she betrayed herself like Yu Luo?

"Yunshuang, she must have been abducted by Yuluo." This was the answer given by Liu.

Li Qingqian sneered in his heart. Liu was still a bit smart and knew that only by saying that Yu Luo took Yun Shuang away could she save the face of the Li family and herself.

But Li Shuyue was determined to pull Li Qingqian into the water, so how could she let go of this opportunity easily?

"Mother, are you confused? Why is Yuluo holding Yunshuang hostage? Is she sick?"

"Do you have a better solution?" Li Zhengkang looked at her.

Liu also held her hand and said, "Listen to mother and apologize to your sister, and we'll be done with this."

"Mother……"

"Hurry up!" Liu shouted.

She has always doted on Li Shuyue. Except for the month of engagement, when had she ever been so angry with her daughter?

Li Shuyue felt wronged, but faced with Liu's tough attitude, she had no choice but to give in. She said to Li Qingqian in a whisper, "I'm sorry..."

The farce was almost over here. Qianghuo suddenly came in and said something in Li Zhengkang's ear. Then he left Jinyuyuan in a hurry.

Li Shuyue cried in grievance and said, "Now that it's over, big brother and sister can leave here, right?"

"This is an order to expel you," Li Qingqian said with a smile, "but the matter is not over yet. Fourth sister, have you forgotten something?"

As soon as Li Zhengkang left, Liu didn't want to pretend anymore, "Li Qingqian, that's enough, I've covered for you, are you still not willing to let Shu Yue go?"

"Covering for me?" Li Qingqian couldn't help laughing, turned around and walked towards the main seat and sat down, "Mother is covering for herself. But I don't care about you, I just want to collect the debt from Fourth Sister."

"Debt collection? What debt?..." Li Shuyue was feeling puzzled, but she felt something was wrong halfway through her words. How could she have forgotten about this matter?

Liu looked at her daughter suspiciously, "What do you owe her?"

"A jade pot and a bowl," Li Qingqian answered for her. "Although they are not valuable, Ah Qian is very poor now. Please, Fourth Sister, pay the price as we agreed before."

Only then did Liu heave a sigh of relief. The Liu family was extremely poor now. If Li Shuyue owed Li Qingqian something valuable, she would not be able to repay it for her no matter what.

It seems okay now, it's just a jade pot and a bowl, no big deal.

"Okay, you tell me how much, and I'll pay it back for Shu Yue."

Li Shuyue breathed a sigh of relief. Fortunately, she had been under house arrest before, so Li Qingqian couldn't come to her to pay back the money, which allowed her to avoid the debt for a month.

Now that my mother is back and the Liu family is as wealthy as they are, what's the difficulty in paying back a mere 100,000 taels of silver?

Li Qingqian smiled and waved to Yunshang, and Yunshang took out the IOU from her sleeve pocket that she had asked her to carry with her.

"A total of one hundred thousand taels of silver."

"What?" Liu's eyes widened. "One hundred thousand taels? What kind of bowl or jade pot can be worth one hundred thousand taels? You are deliberately extorting money!"

Li Qingqian spread her hands, "The jade pot that Fourth Sister broke was made of Snow Heart Jade Glass, and the broken bowl was a treasure from the previous dynasty, and it is worth 100,000 taels, not a cent less."

Liu was unwilling to accept it: "Just because you say so?"

Yun Shang placed the IOU in front of her. When she wanted to take it to check, Yun Shang held the IOU away and said, "Madam, please don't. Eating too much paper is not good for your health."

This venomous tongue is exactly the same as Li Qingqian's.

Liu glared at Yun Shang with resentment in her eyes. It was fine that Li Qingqian mocked her, but how dare this slut take advantage of her?

Yun Shang smiled and put the IOU in front of her. "Madam, please take a closer look. It clearly states the origins of the things that the Fourth Miss broke. It is indeed the Fourth Miss who put her fingerprints on them. It cannot be fake."

Liu's nails dug into her flesh. Li Qingqian saw it and sneered, "Mother, the New Year is coming soon. Shouldn't we put off settling our debts until after the New Year?"

Of course, Liu didn't want to drag it out. The longer she dragged it on, the worse it would be if Li Qingqian would bring the matter to Li Zhengkang, or wait until Shu Yue got married and then bring it to Jiang Lin. That would be too bad!

But the Liu family couldn't afford so much money. Liu was ruthless and said to Li Shuyue, "You should pay off your debts yourself! Go and get the remaining half of your dowry."

The remaining half of the dowry is about 100,000 taels of silver.

Li Shuyue stared at Liu in disbelief, "Mother, are you crazy? You can solve the problem by writing a letter to your uncle, but you actually want to use your daughter's dowry to pay off the debt?"

"Just go when I tell you to!" After Liu finished yelling, she saw that Li Shuyue still refused to move, so she said to Yulian, "Go and get the remaining half of the dowry list for the fourth lady!"

Yu Lian responded, then looked at Li Shuyue and asked weakly, "Has the young lady moved back to the upper room of Jinyu Courtyard now?"

She wanted to confirm with Li Shuyue, but she hurt Li Shuyue's sensitive nerves. Li Shuyue was so angry that she couldn't hold back and wanted to hit her directly, "Do I need you to remind me?"

After saying that, she rushed out of the main hall angrily, returned to her room, took out the half of the dowry list, returned to the main hall and slammed it in front of Li Qingqian, and was forced to put her fingerprints on the document that Yun Shang had just drafted.

Only then did Li Qingqian tear up the IOU.

"Okay, I've gotten what I deserve, so my brother and I won't bother you any more."

After saying that, he was about to follow Li Xi out.

When passing by Liu, she whispered, "Li Qingqian, don't be too complacent. One day, I will make you spit out everything you swallowed today!"

Li Qingqian curled her lips, and without even turning her head, she replied, "Oh, then mother should be more careful in the future. Didn't mother notice that the ink mark where Yu Luo pressed her handprint was a little light?"

Liu's pupils shrank slightly. What did she mean?

Li Qingqian then tilted his head slightly and looked at her with a smile on his face. "I mean, since I'm confidently handing this thing over to you, you naturally have the ability to get more than one copy. You two, mother and daughter, better stop messing with me."

Shen Changyun once told her that the group of people who went after Yu Luo could all write, so she had more than one confession in her hands.

This is why Li Qingqian was able to confidently hand over the confession to Liu just now. She still had a backup plan.

She knew that Liu didn't dare to reveal these things in front of her father, but if she wanted Liu to speak for her, she had to find something against her. Naturally, there was no need to give the things to Li Zhengkang in advance.

"When you got the confession just now, did you think I was stupid?" Li Qingqian raised an evil smile, "But you see, I won again this time."
