She could not produce money out of nowhere and she needed to put it straightforwardly in front of the family.
“Don’t ever dream about it.” Ding Qiuyue sneered. “l have never mentioned building a house. I have no money for that either.”
Moreover, they even wanted the windows like at the Shao Family’s house?
Ignorant people!
Did they know that a window like that would be worth more than herself when she was sold.
“What?”
The Ding Family did not understand until a while later. “What did you just say…” Ding Qiuyue said coldly, “Since when did I say that I want to build a house for
“But…’
“l never said any such thing. It was all your assumption.”
Ms. Guan and the others were dumbfounded.
Their beautiful dream had been shattered before they could even think about it properly.
The Ding Family were so disappointed and furious.
People were strange. No one had mentioned this before, so no one had thought that Ding Qiuyue should build a house for them.
But after the coincidental talk, the whole family got very upset and felt that it was Ding Qiuyue’s fault that she denied the possibility.
“The Zhao Family are so rich, you can’t even give us a dozen of liang? You have not earned even this much after all these years?” Ding Jiahuai snapped furiously.
Ding Qiuyue sneered and turned to look at him with a grudge. “I am a concubine, a concubine, you know! I am not in charge of the Zhao Family’s money. I have not even seen what a dozen liang looks like so far. If you want it, you can go to the Zhao Family and ask for it directly!’
“You!” Ding Jiahuai turned even more furious. “If you had gotten pregnant and sucked up to them, you would not have ended up like this. Look at yourself!
No man would like you!’
Ding Qiuyue burst into tears and snapped back.
“You sold me to become a concubine. What more do you want of me? You want to kill me?”
It was a mess in the Ding Family.
In the end, Ding Jiahuai left with a sunk face, and the mess did not end until Ms. Guan dragged Ding Qiuyue back into the room.
Ms. Guan was very unsatisfied by the shattered dream. Still, she could not help but feel concerned about her daughter. She wanted to shout at her but held back.
She sighed deeply. “We are poor. Don’t blame your father and brother for what they said to you…”
Ding Qiuyue looked up at her coldly after wiping away the tears. Nobody cared about her, no matter whether she would blame them or not.
“Mom, I am telling you the truth. Old Master sent me back for a specific purpose…”
Ding Qiuyue had no choice but to confess.
She hoped that Ms. Guan could give her a hand.
She knew clearly what her Old Master was like. If she failed this simple mission, her Old Master would not forgive her and instead punish her in the end.
Ms. Guan was shocked and dumbfounded.
“How…”
“l have told you everything. Keep your mouth sealed and leak no words to anyone. Old Master Zhao is not very easy to deal with and he doesn’t like rumors about his family.”
“l got it!” Ms. Guan got frightened and nodded, turning pale. “But your reputation will be…”
She just did not understand this.. Her daughter was married to Old Master Zhao, how could Old Master Zhao make his woman do this kind of thing? That was so wrong! Actually, everything felt wrong about this…
