The mistress is reborn, no one who bullies me can escape

Wang felt uneasy and stammered, "I... I..."

"Mom, tell me the truth, do you really not know or are you pretending not to know?" Zhao Yuxuan said in a low voice, suppressing his anger.

Zhao Yuxuan's roar frightened Wang so much that she trembled and stepped back unconsciously.

"I... I only know that after he went to the Jiang family, your sister-in-law ignored him and he left. As for where he went, I really don't know." Wang explained anxiously, with a hint of grievance and helplessness in her tone.

I swear to God, if she knew her younger son had gone to that kind of place, she would definitely stop him.

Zhao Yuxuan finally calmed down. He thought that no matter how confused his mother was, she wouldn't be this confused.

"My Lord, being angry here now will not achieve any result. You should think about how to solve your brother's problem!" Xue Jinhua said softly.

Zhao Yuxuan knew that it was useless to say these things here, so he ignored Wang and turned around and left the room with the servant.

Wang started to cry now. Neither of her two sons was easy to worry about. The younger son was uneducated and idle all day long. The older son was a good boy, but what was the use of him? After something happened, he kept blaming her. She really didn't want to live anymore... Why did God treat her like this!

The more she wanted to cry, the harder she cried. She thought Xue Jinhua would come to comfort her. But Xue Jinhua said, "Mom, if I were you, I wouldn't cry. My brother owes Xiyuan 10,000 taels of silver. Now there is no silver, even if the Marquis goes there, it will be useless. If I were you, instead of crying here, I would think about how to organize the dowry, sell it, and use the money to redeem the person."

Wang stopped crying instantly. How could she have forgotten this? This sentence was like a hammer, hitting her heart hard and waking her up from a dream.

But the youngest son owed so much silver that even if he sold all his dowry, it would not be enough!

She looked at the daughter-in-law in front of her, the one she had always wanted to control, "Jinhua, listen to me, I know I was wrong now, he is your brother after all, I... even if I sell all my dowry, the money is not enough, you see..."

"Mother, this is easy to say. I told you before that the account office can still take out 5,000 taels of silver. As for the remaining silver, your dowry should be almost enough for 5,000 taels, right?"

Wang was anxious when she heard this. "Xue Jinhua, that is my last pension money. I can't give it all out, but I can give you a part. I need your help for the rest."

Xue Jinhua looked embarrassed, "Mother, it's not that I don't want to help, but I can't take the money. You see, it's already known that you used my dowry to help the Marquis, and the head of the clan is so angry, and the Marquis is still my husband. If you use my money to help my brother deal with this kind of thing, it will be a disaster if people know about it."

Wang also thought of the reason and her face looked extremely ugly.

"Xue Jinhua said in a very embarrassed manner: "Mom, it's not that I don't want to help, but I really can't help..."

Wang was as if she had been hit hard. "Jinhua, but he is your brother after all! You can't just stand by and watch him die, right?"

Xue Jinhua felt that she was lucky enough not to take advantage of someone's misfortune. This Wang actually wanted me to pay money. It was really a pipe dream.

"Mom, it's not that I don't want to save you, but I just can't do anything to help you!" Xue Jinhua had a helpless expression.

"Mom, I can't just ignore the rest of the Zhao family for my brother's sake, right? Besides, besides me and the Marquis, there are also my brother's wife. I believe the Jiang family will not ignore this matter."

If the Jiang family was so easy to talk to, Zhao Yuhang wouldn't have to go to their house in person to invite them.

Not to mention asking the Jiang family for help, I'm afraid that if the Jiang family knew about this, not only would they not help, they might even try every possible way to sever ties with me!

Wang felt very upset and wanted to help her son, but she didn't have the ability to do so now.

She wanted Xue Jinhua's help, but she couldn't refute Xue Jinhua's words.

For a moment, it seemed as if there was breath stuck in my throat, unable to go up or down, and it felt very uncomfortable.

"Mother, I advise you to act quickly. Otherwise, if you miss the time, the whole city will be in an uproar and the Marquis will be in a difficult situation..." Xue Jinhua stood up.

"Mother, my brother's affairs are handled by the Marquis and the Jiang family, so I don't have to worry about anything. There are still many things to deal with in the house, so I won't bother you for now."

Not long after Xue Jinhua left, Zhao Yuxuan came back angrily.

Wang looked anxious. "How is your brother? Why didn't he come back with you?"

Zhao Yuxuan's face tensed, "Mom, do you think I can bring him back after I go out?"

"Why can't we come back together? Is it because Xiyuan is unwilling to release us? They are too much of a bully! You are a marquis, why don't they even give you this little bit of face?"

Wang's words made Zhao Yuxuan even angrier. "Mom, Xiyuan is so big in Kyoto, the backer must be very powerful. I just went there to introduce myself, but they didn't give me any face at all. They said that it's only natural to pay back debts, and they won't let me go unless I can pay the money."

Wang was unwilling to accept this. "Isn't this a tyrant? We haven't even seen your brother yet. How can we be sure that the IOU was signed by your brother? Why don't we report it to the police?"

"Nonsense, if we report it to the police now, won't everyone know about it?" Zhao Yuxuan's face was gloomy. He was a man who cared a lot about his reputation. He would never allow his brother's incident to affect his career.

"Then... then... what should we do now? Xue Jinhua's silver can't be used, and we don't have that much money now. Isn't this pushing people into a dead end?"

Zhao Yuxuan's face tensed, "Mom, I think I can only go to my brother's wife for this matter. Let's go to the Jiang family and talk about this matter!"

"Ah? Yuxuan, you know the character of the Jiang family, right? Wang was dumbfounded. "No, they will definitely force your brother in various ways. If so, your brother will have to live under the shadow of your sister-in-law for the rest of his life."

"So what mother meant was that she wanted to ruin the Marquis' career and was unwilling to ask the Jiang family for help? I want to ask mother, in your heart, is your brother's dignity more important than the Marquis' future and the future of the entire Marquis's mansion? Xue Jinhua, who had already left, turned back and couldn't help but refute when she heard Wang's words.

"No... I don't mean that. Our Marquis Mansion must be more important... But..." Seeing Zhao Yuxuan's ugly face, Wang quickly denied it.

Zhao Yuxuan's face was still unhappy, "In that case, mother, you should go to the Jiang family now!"

Wang was so angry that she gritted her teeth. She had no other choice but to take her maids and servants and hurried to Jiang's house.

Zhao Yuxuan felt relieved. He turned to look at Xue Jinhua, and his expression softened as he thought about her efforts. "Thank you for reminding me about what happened today."

If this were in her previous life, Xue Jinhua would have been so happy that she would fly with joy if Zhao Yuxuan showed the slightest kindness towards her.

But now... She is no longer the same person she used to be, and his behavior now only makes her feel disgusted.
