The Comeback of the Charming Farmer's Wife

Chapter 2672: Qingqing Side Story—Chapter 3: Sending Off with Silver

"If this gets out, how will I face people? My whole life will be ruined."

"Shut up!" Yang Chuxia snorted coldly, "Why are you crying? Did your father or mother die? Crying non-stop early in the morning?"

Xiao Yu sobbed, thinking, if I don’t cry or make a fuss, won’t you just dismiss me?

Turning to look at Ye Rongqing, who had a face full of regret, Yang Chuxia’s heart sank!

"Mother... I..."

Yang Chuxia gave him no chance to speak. Right now, she thought, regardless of whose fault or whether it was true, she couldn’t let this Xiao Yu enter the household. If people say she’s being biased or cruel, let them say it. She absolutely couldn’t let Qingqing marry her, otherwise, Qingqing’s future harem would be never peaceful.

"Alright, I’m aware of the situation. You leave first."

"Mother!"

"Leave!!" Seeing Yang Chuxia was angry, Ye Rongqing had no choice but to leave.

And Xiao Yu felt uneasy upon witnessing this.

Hastily shouted, "Third Young Master, you can’t just ignore the servant."

"What are you shouting?" Seeing Ye Rongqing halt his steps, Yang Chuxia immediately threw the cup on the table, "Did you not hear me telling you to leave? You’ve grown bold? Daring to defy your mother’s words?"

Upon hearing this, Ye Rongqing quickly left.

Once outside, he saw Ye Zi’an and Ye Haoxuan in the courtyard.

Ye Haoxuan had a face of disapproval.

Ye Zi’an pointed his finger, "You, ah you... It’s all father’s fault for not teaching you well."

"Father, it’s not your fault." Ye Haoxuan quickly said, "All these years, I’ve been taking care of Qingqing. It was my negligence in guidance that led him to cause such trouble."

"Alas..." Ye Zi’an waved his hand. How could this be blamed on Lele?

"Father, I... I just drank too much. I didn’t know this would happen." As he said this, his neck shrank back.

Ye Haoyang was in no good mood to talk nicely. Grabbing his collar to the side, he started throwing punches.

"You little brat, I let you overdrink, let you have no sense of caution... This kind of thing should happen in our courtyard, you little brat, eating for so many years in vain!"

Ye Haoyang’s punishment made him scream, yet no one stepped forward to stop it. This brat truly needed to be disciplined.

Ye Haoxuan then asked, "Father, how will mother handle this matter?"

"I don’t know!"

Inside the room, Yang Chuxia looked at Xiao Yu, "First, get your clothes on, and then we’ll discuss the actual matter."

Seeing the cup-smashing scene, Xiao Yu dared not disobey.

Once dressed, Xiao Yu walked out, and Yang Chuxia’s eyes were filled with frost.

"Where are you from?"

Xiao Yu didn’t know why she asked but obediently answered, "Replying to madam, the servant is from the Capital City."

"Hmm." Yang Chuxia nodded, and opened a box Ming Lan just brought, "Here are one thousand taels of silver notes, enough for your family to live well for two generations. Take this money and leave Prince An’s Mansion, leave the capital, find a place where no one knows you, and you can still live well for a lifetime."

Giving silver to make her leave the mansion was far from Xiao Yu’s goal.

Though these thousand taels seem like a lot, it wasn’t enough to buy a small courtyard in the Capital City; even if she left and went elsewhere, she could only buy a few dozen acres of land and a house, and it wouldn’t be enough to hire a servant.

Living the life of a farmer was not what she desired.

She wanted more to stay in the mansion and live lavishly, bringing her family along to prosper for a lifetime. She has seen the noblewomen attending weddings at the mansion; a piece of jewelry on their heads was worth a hundred taels, even a concubine wore an outfit worth a hundred taels. Now offering one thousand taels to dismiss her, how could it be that easy?
