The fate was changed, the mistress of the Hou family was slapped in the face and made money to win

Chapter 234 Wanting Zhou Yihong to Marry Jiang Suining

"Mother, what should we do now? We have completely lost this ice."

In the back garden, Zhou Yihong, who was called over by Qin, had a worried look on his face.

If I had known this would happen, I shouldn't have listened to Han Nian'an. This way, at least there would be some money left in the account!

Han Nian'an was also brought here by Qin's men. She knelt on the ground nervously, her face pale. The arrogance and complacency she had felt some time ago seemed like a fleeting dream and had disappeared without a trace.

Feeling Qin's cold gaze cast on her, Han Nian'an shrank back.

"I, I didn't expect Jiang Suining to come out and cause trouble. If it weren't for her, this year's ice would definitely make money. It's all Jiang Suining's fault!"

"Shut up! Jiang Suining just received the emperor's commendation yesterday and now has a good reputation in the imperial city. How dare you insult him? If this gets out, I'm afraid people will think that we, the Changning Marquisate, are going against the emperor!"

Han Nian'an was speechless for a moment after being accused of such a big crime, but he felt more and more unwilling in his heart.

Jiang Suining was just a merchant girl, so why did she receive the emperor's commendation?

Zhou Yihong frowned, "Mother, even if Jiang Suining really received the emperor's commendation, the current situation of our mansion is indeed inseparable from her. If it weren't for her, the price of ice would not have fallen again and again."

Previously, that bastard Wang Lang had cheated him of all the money he had, and now his mother had cut off his monthly allowance, so he didn't even have the money to go to the brothel to drink and reward. If he continued like this, he would have no way to survive.

Qin looked at her son and said, "Putting this aside, you should thank Jiang Suining."

"What do you mean, mother?" Zhou Yihong wondered.

Qin snorted coldly, her eyes fell on Han Nian'an again, and she said with a fake smile: "This slave girl told Jiang Suining about the interest. If Jiang Suining had not known the situation and knew the situation, he would have reported it to the emperor. The imperial edict questioning and punishing him would have arrived at the Marquis' Mansion by now."

Zhou Yihong's face changed, and he pulled up Han Nian'an who was kneeling on the ground, "Bitch, don't you think you haven't hurt me enough?"

"I didn't!" Han Nian'an explained hurriedly, "I really didn't tell Jiang Suining, and I don't know how she knew it, but I really..."

"Okay, there's no need to say such nonsense. I think you won't admit it even if you let it slip." Qin interrupted Han Nian'an and said quietly, "The most urgent task now is to find a way to quickly make up for the deficit in the account. If we continue like this, if outsiders know that our Changning Marquis Mansion has become an empty shell, we will be in big trouble."

Qin's words gave Zhou Yihong a chill in his heart.

He has been short of money during this period, and some of the people who used to invite him for drinks and music have started to ask him why he has not accepted invitations recently.

We must not let those people know that the Changning Marquisate is out of money, otherwise I don’t know how they will laugh at us behind our backs.

"Mother, why don't we sell a few more shops? At least we can get some cash in hand."

"No!" Qin immediately rejected this idea. "The shops we sold before were mostly not doing well. If others asked about it, we could still use the excuse that they were not profitable enough and we were too lazy to run them. But now all the shops we have are making money. If we sell them now, not only will it not be cost-effective, but it will also tell others that there is a problem with the money in our mansion."

"But besides selling the shop, is there any other way to make up for the shortfall in the short term?"

After Zhou Yihong finished speaking, he felt even more annoyed as he looked at Han Nian'an who was still being held tightly by him.

"You keep saying you can predict the future, but now it seems you are lying. If it weren't for you, how could the Marquis' Mansion have fallen into such a state?"

Han Nian'an bit her lip tightly. She didn't dare to make any more excuses about this matter. After all, she did lie and made up the premonition.

She had thought that this time it would definitely be a done deal, but she never imagined that Jiang Suining would come up with a new way to make ice!

It must be that God is playing tricks on her!

Qin looked at him coldly and said to Zhou Yihong, "Now you understand what kind of jinx you have brought upon our mansion."

Ever since Hong Er and Han Nian'an got involved, troubles have come one after another. First it was their reputation, then their marriage, and now it's the money in the mansion. Han Nian'an is simply here to bring trouble to their mansion.

Zhou Yihong looked at Han Nian'an, and the more he thought about it, the angrier he became. He threw her to the ground and said, "Mother, I'm going to write a divorce letter right now!"

"No!" Han Nian'an panicked, not caring about her hurt arm, and quickly grabbed Zhou Yihong's clothes, "Husband, even if you don't care about anything, at least you should take a look at the affection we have had for each other during this period of time."

"Shut up. You've hurt me like this, and you still have the nerve to talk about friendship."

Zhou Yihong tried to pull out the hem of his clothes with a grim face, but seeing that Han Nian'an was holding it tightly, he gritted his teeth and kicked him directly.

Han Nian'an was kicked right in the heart. She frowned in pain and trembled all over. Finally, she let go of Zhou Yihong.

Just as Zhou Yihong turned around and prepared to write the divorce letter, Qin called him with a deep voice.

"The divorce is not urgent. What matters now is to find a way to make up for the shortfall."

Seeing his mother's expression, Zhou Yihong was stunned and asked quickly: "Mother, do you have a solution?"

"I guess so." Qin nodded, but did not speak immediately. She just looked at Zhou Yihong seriously and thought for a while before saying, "Hong'er, mother asks you, are you willing to marry Jiang Suining?"

Han Nian'an, who had fallen to the ground in panic, was suddenly stunned, then quickly looked up at Qin.

"What did you say?"

Qin actually wanted Zhou Yihong to marry Jiang Suining. No, that's impossible. I must have heard it wrong!

Qin glared at Han Nian'an unhappily. She was very unhappy because of the other party's questioning tone, but she was too lazy to pay attention to him at the moment and continued to speak to Zhou Yihong.

"Hong'er, if you marry Jiang Suining, her shop and money will go to the Marquis' Mansion with you, and naturally you can make up for the shortfall in this account."

Without waiting for Zhou Yihong to answer, Han Nian'an immediately objected.

"No, this is absolutely not possible! Jiang Suining is just a merchant's daughter, of low status, how can she enter the Marquis' Mansion!"

Moreover, Qin actually used the word "marry". Doesn't that mean that she wants Jiang Suining to be the principal wife and surpass herself?

She had worked so hard for so long just to become the mistress of the Changning Marquis' Mansion, and she would never allow such a thing to happen!
